I'm the Fresh King Benjamin, host of
Vibing the Apocalypse, a podcast that uses

10
00:00:33,849 --> 00:00:37,172
comedy to bring injustices that I went
through to light.

11
00:00:37,272 --> 00:00:40,395
I'm an escapee from a Mormon polygamist
compound in Wyoming.

12
00:00:40,395 --> 00:00:43,437
I was taught that the world was a wicked,
wicked place.

13
00:00:43,478 --> 00:00:47,161
But now that I've escaped, I want you to
show me all the wicked things and help me

00:00:53,262 --> 00:00:56,953
The following presentation is a production
of Ride the Wave Media.

17
00:01:01,838 --> 00:01:06,579
Hello, welcome to episode two of
Practically Magic.

18
00:01:06,580 --> 00:01:11,922
I am Courtney Pearl, pagan, witch, card
reader, healer, spiritualist, Celtic

19
00:01:11,922 --> 00:01:16,584
priestess, teacher, artist, and mystic
mythical seeker.

20
00:01:17,064 --> 00:01:20,326
Here on this podcast, we are gonna
discover the mysteries of the universe and

21
00:01:20,326 --> 00:01:23,627
use them to create the life you seek.

22
00:01:23,627 --> 00:01:29,649
On this episode, we are diving in more
into the words.

23
00:01:30,282 --> 00:01:32,663
aspect of creating spells.

24
00:01:32,663 --> 00:01:36,326
So in the last episode, we talked about
how in order to create a spell, you need

25
00:01:36,326 --> 00:01:39,548
the words, the will and the way.

26
00:01:39,688 --> 00:01:43,871
So I'm gonna dive a little deeper into
that and discuss the information you need

27
00:01:43,871 --> 00:01:47,914
to know to create words for your spells.

28
00:01:48,254 --> 00:01:55,299
But first we're gonna start by pulling a
card as a divination practitioner.

29
00:01:55,299 --> 00:01:57,961
I like to start out my day pulling a card.

30
00:01:57,961 --> 00:01:58,402
I like to...

31
00:01:58,402 --> 00:02:02,664
end my day pulling a card, so why wouldn't
I start a podcast pulling a card?

32
00:02:02,744 --> 00:02:08,307
Today I am going to be using the Magic
Magical Nordic Tarot.

33
00:02:08,307 --> 00:02:13,410
I just got this deck but I have been
playing with it when I work on Wednesdays

34
00:02:13,410 --> 00:02:14,411
at Synchronicities.

35
00:02:14,411 --> 00:02:19,593
I play with their store copy all the time,
so I decided to go ahead and order my own.

36
00:02:20,634 --> 00:02:22,055
And I just got it.

37
00:02:22,055 --> 00:02:23,076
I'm so excited.

38
00:02:23,076 --> 00:02:24,016
I love this deck.

39
00:02:24,016 --> 00:02:26,637
The artwork is whimsical and fun.

40
00:02:27,454 --> 00:02:31,537
And I'm pulling a card today for all of
you who are listening, no matter when you

41
00:02:31,537 --> 00:02:37,162
are listening, no matter if this is in the
future, I'm going to trust that this card

42
00:02:37,162 --> 00:02:41,405
will be the perfect thing for us to hear
for this episode and for you who are

43
00:02:41,405 --> 00:02:43,747
listening right now.

44
00:02:43,747 --> 00:02:47,150
So that's another magical thing we get to
experience.

45
00:02:47,611 --> 00:02:51,694
And I have pulled the six of pentacles for
this deck.

46
00:02:51,694 --> 00:02:56,337
And this deck has the word gifts that goes
along with them.

47
00:02:56,994 --> 00:03:06,139
The way I interpret this to mean is that
we need to be extremely mindful about the

48
00:03:06,139 --> 00:03:10,241
gifts that are being received today.

49
00:03:10,241 --> 00:03:15,504
That gifts can come in a lot of unexpected
places and a lot of unexpected ways.

50
00:03:16,044 --> 00:03:22,828
But the phrase, do not look a gift horse
in the mouth comes to mind, which means

51
00:03:23,248 --> 00:03:26,149
whatever the gift is and whatever form it
comes in.

52
00:03:26,226 --> 00:03:32,252
Even if it's unexpected or seemingly
unnecessary, we're going to look at each

53
00:03:32,252 --> 00:03:40,681
gift that we receive with gratitude and
see it as just a symbol of the abundance

54
00:03:40,681 --> 00:03:42,642
of things that are coming to us.

55
00:03:43,464 --> 00:03:46,426
It's a gift from a person, a show of love.

56
00:03:46,487 --> 00:03:48,188
It's a gift from the universe.

57
00:03:48,649 --> 00:03:49,589
It's an

58
00:03:51,326 --> 00:03:53,706
invitation to gratitude.

59
00:03:54,847 --> 00:03:57,408
And so with that, we're gonna move into
our episode.

60
00:03:57,408 --> 00:04:01,170
We're gonna talk about words.

61
00:04:01,270 --> 00:04:03,271
So I'm gonna start a little bit with a
story time.

62
00:04:03,271 --> 00:04:09,093
I like to bring in myth and legend and
folklore into some of the things that we

63
00:04:09,093 --> 00:04:13,435
talk about to help the understanding of
the topic.

64
00:04:13,435 --> 00:04:18,137
And the one that comes to mind for me
today is the story of the monkey's paw by

65
00:04:18,137 --> 00:04:19,377
WW Jacobs.

66
00:04:19,770 --> 00:04:23,551
And I'm not going to go into the retelling
of this story, but if you're unfamiliar

67
00:04:23,551 --> 00:04:31,794
with it, there have been reiterations and
interpretations of this story a hundred

68
00:04:32,155 --> 00:04:33,335
times over.

69
00:04:33,595 --> 00:04:39,638
I think the Simpsons did an episode of The
Monkey's Paw, and basically it's the

70
00:04:39,638 --> 00:04:44,140
general idea of wishes being granted.

71
00:04:44,500 --> 00:04:48,441
And in the story of The Monkey's Paw, this
family receives a

72
00:04:48,602 --> 00:04:53,404
monkey's paw, I think from a marketplace
or something, and then they get to make

73
00:04:53,404 --> 00:04:54,764
wishes on it.

74
00:04:55,204 --> 00:05:02,067
But it is always a cautionary tale because
they're being asked to word their wishes

75
00:05:02,067 --> 00:05:03,548
very carefully.

76
00:05:03,868 --> 00:05:08,390
Because they might say something like, I
wish I was two inches taller.

77
00:05:08,710 --> 00:05:14,432
And then when the wish is granted, their
head grows too big for their body and

78
00:05:14,432 --> 00:05:17,473
they're two inches taller, but it's
because they have a massive head.

79
00:05:17,674 --> 00:05:19,574
And they're like, no, this isn't what I
wanted.

80
00:05:19,574 --> 00:05:21,935
This isn't what I asked for.

81
00:05:21,935 --> 00:05:23,755
You weren't specific, right?

82
00:05:23,755 --> 00:05:26,376
You just said two inches taller.

83
00:05:26,376 --> 00:05:27,596
You didn't say how.

84
00:05:28,357 --> 00:05:33,238
And so you've seen this in movies and TV
shows with genies granting wishes and it's

85
00:05:33,238 --> 00:05:33,538
evil.

86
00:05:33,538 --> 00:05:36,019
And they're like, that's not what I meant.

87
00:05:36,599 --> 00:05:39,640
But the reason that story comes to mind
today is because we do need to be

88
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,341
extremely careful about language and how
we use it to ask for what we want.

89
00:05:43,341 --> 00:05:45,021
And when creating spells.

90
00:05:45,706 --> 00:05:50,028
And I deem language to be incredibly
important in my life.

91
00:05:50,028 --> 00:05:55,011
Ever since I got back from England, when I
was there in August, I spent a day in

92
00:05:55,011 --> 00:05:59,453
Wales and I absolutely fell in love with
Wales.

93
00:05:59,453 --> 00:06:00,614
I can't even explain it.

94
00:06:00,614 --> 00:06:03,135
It's something just in my DNA.

95
00:06:03,175 --> 00:06:05,676
I just wanted to connect with the
landscape.

96
00:06:05,676 --> 00:06:11,139
As a pagan, that's really magical for me,
is just connecting with the land.

97
00:06:11,139 --> 00:06:13,440
This was the land of my ancestors.

98
00:06:13,481 --> 00:06:15,501
This is a...

99
00:06:15,790 --> 00:06:20,471
mythical place full of history and just
beautiful to boot.

100
00:06:20,471 --> 00:06:23,572
It's a gorgeous place.

101
00:06:24,112 --> 00:06:29,593
So when I got back from that, I started
learning Welsh on Duolingo, started

102
00:06:29,593 --> 00:06:30,833
learning the language.

103
00:06:31,134 --> 00:06:34,695
And you might ask why.

104
00:06:34,755 --> 00:06:36,255
You would be right to ask that question.

105
00:06:36,255 --> 00:06:39,976
I ask myself every day, why is it that I
am learning Welsh?

106
00:06:40,376 --> 00:06:44,697
It's not like I meet a lot of people in my
everyday life here in Utah that speak

107
00:06:44,697 --> 00:06:45,557
Welsh.

108
00:06:46,074 --> 00:06:50,816
And it's not like I have any direct plans
to go back to Wales.

109
00:06:50,816 --> 00:06:56,139
And even if I did, which I do plan to
someday, but even if I did, they mostly

110
00:06:56,139 --> 00:06:57,500
speak English there.

111
00:06:57,500 --> 00:07:00,501
I would get along just fine not knowing
the language.

112
00:07:01,382 --> 00:07:05,864
But when I learned that it's an old,
Brithonic language that connects very

113
00:07:05,864 --> 00:07:12,528
deeply with the old Celtic traditions and
that it's been kept alive, even through

114
00:07:12,528 --> 00:07:15,329
English occupation and Roman occupation,
it's like...

115
00:07:15,566 --> 00:07:21,269
Throughout history, this is the deepest
language connection I can get to an old

116
00:07:21,269 --> 00:07:26,212
Celtic language that they spoke there,
what the Druids spoke.

117
00:07:26,972 --> 00:07:32,035
So for me, learning the language connects
me back to that place, puts me back to

118
00:07:32,035 --> 00:07:39,600
where I can go back in time or I can go
the distance and I can actually be present

119
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,581
in Wales even while I live here in Utah.

120
00:07:43,790 --> 00:07:50,415
Duí mún haidh isci cwmraig ar mabinagí,
duí eschai weld er caath.

121
00:07:50,976 --> 00:07:52,877
I am learning Welsh.

122
00:07:53,458 --> 00:07:59,923
And I said, I do enjoy learning Welsh and
the mabinagí, and I also want to see a

123
00:07:59,923 --> 00:08:02,405
cat, is what I said.

124
00:08:03,126 --> 00:08:05,808
I may not be able to actually communicate
with Welsh people yet.

125
00:08:05,808 --> 00:08:10,012
They probably would look at me like I was
speaking another language, but I'm trying,

126
00:08:10,012 --> 00:08:12,373
and it connects me to where I feel.

127
00:08:12,510 --> 00:08:15,972
a deep sense of longing for.

128
00:08:16,293 --> 00:08:19,015
And that means something to me.

129
00:08:19,015 --> 00:08:22,779
So let's get into spells.

130
00:08:22,779 --> 00:08:24,581
Let's talk spells.

131
00:08:24,581 --> 00:08:28,924
Spells are just stories and stories are
just spells.

132
00:08:28,924 --> 00:08:33,628
This is what I tell my students, my
clients when I'm talking about magic.

133
00:08:33,849 --> 00:08:39,153
It's really interesting to think of it
that way because

134
00:08:39,318 --> 00:08:45,523
When we tell a story, we're spinning a
spell, we're spinning a web of imagination

135
00:08:45,523 --> 00:08:49,346
and visualization, and that is a spell.

136
00:08:50,527 --> 00:08:58,834
Now, what I tell my students is, if spells
are stories, if stories are spells, we

137
00:08:58,834 --> 00:09:04,939
need to be really careful about the
stories we write about ourselves.

138
00:09:06,201 --> 00:09:07,534
These are the deep.

139
00:09:07,534 --> 00:09:13,095
rooted subconscious beliefs that we have
been carrying around within us since

140
00:09:13,095 --> 00:09:16,176
childhood, since before we were born.

141
00:09:16,896 --> 00:09:22,958
And they can become spells and they can
become curses.

142
00:09:23,558 --> 00:09:28,759
And for example, if you are walking around
today going, I am not a good artist.

143
00:09:29,019 --> 00:09:31,220
I have no artistic talent whatsoever.

144
00:09:31,220 --> 00:09:33,641
I hear this a lot as an artist and an art
teacher.

145
00:09:33,641 --> 00:09:36,401
I hear this from other adults all the
time.

146
00:09:37,266 --> 00:09:38,887
I am not an artist.

147
00:09:39,468 --> 00:09:41,889
How long have you been telling that story?

148
00:09:42,630 --> 00:09:49,076
And at some point in your childhood, you
wrote that spell and it's like becoming a

149
00:09:49,076 --> 00:09:51,498
self-fulfilling prophecy, right?

150
00:09:51,799 --> 00:09:53,700
Usually it's around nine years old.

151
00:09:53,860 --> 00:09:57,063
Nine years old is the age of success and
failure.

152
00:09:57,063 --> 00:10:01,728
You start to decide what is success and
what is failure and you make a lot of

153
00:10:01,728 --> 00:10:04,269
decisions about yourself at that point in
time.

154
00:10:04,958 --> 00:10:09,859
about whether or not you are successful at
something or can be successful.

155
00:10:10,540 --> 00:10:15,482
So if you were writing that curse since
you were nine years old and saying, I'm

156
00:10:15,482 --> 00:10:19,863
not a good artist, I can't create
anything, is it the truth?

157
00:10:20,564 --> 00:10:23,685
Would it have been the truth if you hadn't
been saying that?

158
00:10:24,605 --> 00:10:30,308
And the truth is, this is what I tell
everyone, there is only one thing you need

159
00:10:30,308 --> 00:10:32,909
to do to actually be an artist.

160
00:10:33,989 --> 00:10:34,989
One thing.

161
00:10:35,658 --> 00:10:37,078
and that's make art.

162
00:10:37,999 --> 00:10:40,741
Who's to say what is good art and what is
bad art?

163
00:10:40,741 --> 00:10:45,945
There's been art historians since the
beginning of time that have argued over

164
00:10:45,945 --> 00:10:48,026
what's good art and what's bad art.

165
00:10:48,066 --> 00:10:50,127
Is it good if someone's willing to pay for
it?

166
00:10:50,127 --> 00:10:51,809
I don't know.

167
00:10:51,809 --> 00:10:56,352
That doesn't seem like it should be the
measure of good art to me, but all it

168
00:10:56,352 --> 00:11:00,814
actually takes to be an artist is to make
art.

169
00:11:01,235 --> 00:11:05,337
So if your art is stick figures and you
love making stick figures,

170
00:11:05,398 --> 00:11:09,040
and that's your art of choice, then you're
an artist.

171
00:11:10,081 --> 00:11:13,904
And I believe all of us are artists in the
way that we create life, the way that we

172
00:11:13,904 --> 00:11:15,384
create our life.

173
00:11:15,525 --> 00:11:21,449
We're all just painting out what it is
that we want to make our life become.

174
00:11:22,690 --> 00:11:30,195
So be very careful about what words are
written in your body, in your mind, and

175
00:11:30,195 --> 00:11:33,637
have been played out over and over again.

176
00:11:34,306 --> 00:11:37,687
Being mindful of those is part of the
work.

177
00:11:37,968 --> 00:11:41,510
In the healing process, when I do
emotional healing with clients, we are

178
00:11:41,510 --> 00:11:45,011
actually rewriting memories with words.

179
00:11:45,412 --> 00:11:48,674
When I'm working with a client and they're
working on age nine and we're going back

180
00:11:48,674 --> 00:11:52,495
to that age, what I'm having them do is
rewrite.

181
00:11:53,116 --> 00:12:00,520
There's a lot of process to it and moving
out heavy energy and using our intention

182
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:01,481
to move that out.

183
00:12:01,481 --> 00:12:02,734
But it's also about

184
00:12:02,734 --> 00:12:04,794
creating stories.

185
00:12:05,715 --> 00:12:10,838
What actually happened, what we feel
happened, how it affected us and how we'd

186
00:12:10,838 --> 00:12:15,140
like to rewrite it if we could go back in
time and do it again, right?

187
00:12:16,201 --> 00:12:23,624
Neurologists say that the left brain is
the part of our brain where we use logic,

188
00:12:23,805 --> 00:12:30,709
language, lists, linear time and our left
brain is the one who loves that all of

189
00:12:30,709 --> 00:12:32,909
those things I just said start with L.

190
00:12:33,518 --> 00:12:34,938
That's our left brain, right?

191
00:12:34,938 --> 00:12:36,659
We need our left brain for all of that.

192
00:12:36,659 --> 00:12:38,700
We need words.

193
00:12:39,141 --> 00:12:43,723
And we're gonna talk more in the future
episodes about combining the left and

194
00:12:43,723 --> 00:12:49,166
right brain together, integrating them to
work together.

195
00:12:49,166 --> 00:12:52,988
But as we engage with language, we're
activating our left brain.

196
00:12:52,988 --> 00:12:54,629
We're labeling.

197
00:12:54,809 --> 00:12:56,550
That also starts with L.

198
00:12:56,550 --> 00:12:58,171
We're labeling what it is we want.

199
00:12:58,171 --> 00:13:00,032
We're labeling what it is we feel.

200
00:13:00,032 --> 00:13:03,653
We're asserting some kind of control and
power over those things.

201
00:13:03,950 --> 00:13:05,190
using the words.

202
00:13:05,911 --> 00:13:10,495
And I want to demonstrate just how
powerful words can actually be.

203
00:13:10,795 --> 00:13:12,797
So I'd like you to try a little exercise
with me.

204
00:13:12,797 --> 00:13:15,679
If you're able, I'd like you to close your
eyes.

205
00:13:16,060 --> 00:13:19,263
If you are driving in a car right now,
please do not close your eyes.

206
00:13:19,263 --> 00:13:25,808
But just listen to the words that I'm
speaking and notice how it is that your

207
00:13:25,808 --> 00:13:29,871
body reacts, how you feel when you hear
them.

208
00:13:30,852 --> 00:13:32,610
I'm going to say some words.

209
00:13:32,610 --> 00:13:38,171
But I want to say these words to a
childhood part of yourself.

210
00:13:38,471 --> 00:13:42,272
So I want you to imagine yourself at a
certain age.

211
00:13:42,612 --> 00:13:44,853
It can be any age that comes up.

212
00:13:44,853 --> 00:13:46,153
Don't think too hard about it.

213
00:13:46,153 --> 00:13:49,354
Just bring up any childhood part.

214
00:13:50,154 --> 00:13:55,876
And I want you to listen to the words I
speak to you from that age.

215
00:13:56,636 --> 00:13:59,117
You are loved.

216
00:13:59,817 --> 00:14:02,557
You are doing the best you can.

217
00:14:03,386 --> 00:14:05,247
You are enough.

218
00:14:06,088 --> 00:14:09,210
Love is always with you.

219
00:14:10,732 --> 00:14:15,735
It doesn't matter what you do or where you
go.

220
00:14:16,596 --> 00:14:19,719
You have love.

221
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:25,323
You are worthy of love just for existing.

222
00:14:25,964 --> 00:14:31,349
And now I'd like you to put your hand on
your heart and feel those words being

223
00:14:31,349 --> 00:14:32,810
spoken to your

224
00:14:32,810 --> 00:14:35,651
childhood self.

225
00:14:35,651 --> 00:14:38,573
Just take a moment to notice how that
feels.

226
00:14:39,254 --> 00:14:46,879
If you got emotional, or if you felt
present with it, it might've been exactly

227
00:14:46,879 --> 00:14:49,100
what your childhood self needed to hear.

228
00:14:49,981 --> 00:14:56,265
If a part of you felt a little sticky
about it, maybe prickly, maybe you felt

229
00:14:56,265 --> 00:15:01,228
like there was some voice deep inside that
was saying,

230
00:15:03,842 --> 00:15:08,825
then notice that because healing does not
mean fixing yourself.

231
00:15:08,825 --> 00:15:10,767
Healing means witnessing.

232
00:15:11,407 --> 00:15:16,511
And in that moment, you're witnessing how
your child reacts to those words.

233
00:15:16,511 --> 00:15:20,054
Not your child, your child's self.

234
00:15:20,054 --> 00:15:23,016
Your child would love to hear those words
too if you have a child.

235
00:15:23,016 --> 00:15:28,340
So maybe think about giving them that gift
of those words.

236
00:15:28,981 --> 00:15:29,841
Now it's...

237
00:15:30,054 --> 00:15:35,395
Important to understand that when we use
language to access what we want, source

238
00:15:35,395 --> 00:15:40,056
energy, the source of all energy and
creation of the universe.

239
00:15:40,056 --> 00:15:44,617
You can call that God, you can call it
Mother Earth, you can call it whatever you

240
00:15:44,617 --> 00:15:45,418
want.

241
00:15:45,638 --> 00:15:47,878
But there is a source of all energy.

242
00:15:48,338 --> 00:15:52,440
We know that energy is vibrations, and
when it vibrates faster and faster and

243
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:56,301
faster, it gets closer and closer and
closer to source energy.

244
00:15:56,301 --> 00:15:59,781
And love is very close to source energy.

245
00:16:00,562 --> 00:16:04,844
If you imagine that source energy is a
person, that's fine.

246
00:16:04,844 --> 00:16:12,708
If it's just the source of all creation,
you can access that by accessing that,

247
00:16:13,889 --> 00:16:15,429
what it feels like.

248
00:16:16,430 --> 00:16:22,814
Now, source does not understand when we
give a negative in our language.

249
00:16:22,814 --> 00:16:29,517
So when we say, I do not want to fall in
my face on the eye, the energy of that

250
00:16:30,470 --> 00:16:35,511
is actually connecting with falling on the
ice rather than not.

251
00:16:35,831 --> 00:16:41,913
So energy just understands frequency, so
it's going to understand that as falling

252
00:16:41,913 --> 00:16:44,133
on the ice.

253
00:16:44,133 --> 00:16:50,775
If I say, I do not want to lose all my
money, I do not want to lose all my money,

254
00:16:51,215 --> 00:16:58,337
all the universe is going to hear in
partnership with creation with us is lose

255
00:16:58,337 --> 00:16:59,397
all my money.

256
00:17:00,534 --> 00:17:01,334
Right?

257
00:17:01,534 --> 00:17:08,557
So we have to be very careful about the
language we use in prayer or in spells or

258
00:17:08,557 --> 00:17:10,238
in manifestation.

259
00:17:10,238 --> 00:17:16,040
Whatever you're doing using this magic,
you need to be able to say, this is what I

260
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:23,763
want and this is the frequency I feel
getting that, having that come to me.

261
00:17:23,763 --> 00:17:28,045
And I want to talk a little bit about the
written word of language.

262
00:17:28,045 --> 00:17:28,910
So in...

263
00:17:28,910 --> 00:17:32,831
In Celtic tradition, in Celtic mythology,
I've been studying the Mabinagi, which is

264
00:17:32,831 --> 00:17:34,031
the Welsh mythology.

265
00:17:34,031 --> 00:17:40,433
Unfortunately, Welsh mythology was written
down in the Middle Ages after Christ in

266
00:17:40,433 --> 00:17:42,314
about 1100 AD.

267
00:17:42,834 --> 00:17:51,957
So any Welsh mythology that we maybe would
have understood or Celtic mythology, it's

268
00:17:51,957 --> 00:17:54,917
all entangled in history.

269
00:17:55,106 --> 00:18:02,709
Because the druids of ancient times, and
this is like Stonehenge times, they did

270
00:18:02,709 --> 00:18:05,110
not believe in writing anything down.

271
00:18:05,350 --> 00:18:07,591
Everything was an oral tradition.

272
00:18:07,591 --> 00:18:14,674
Their spiritual practice was that it
didn't, it shouldn't be, it's so sacred,

273
00:18:14,674 --> 00:18:16,135
it shouldn't be written down.

274
00:18:16,175 --> 00:18:20,797
So they only passed it on from master to
student, from wisdom keeper to wisdom

275
00:18:20,797 --> 00:18:21,697
keeper.

276
00:18:21,797 --> 00:18:22,537
They...

277
00:18:22,902 --> 00:18:24,282
didn't write it down.

278
00:18:24,282 --> 00:18:30,904
And so when they did finally write things
down, it was like monks in a church and

279
00:18:30,904 --> 00:18:33,065
they wanted to preserve the culture.

280
00:18:33,065 --> 00:18:36,966
So they wrote those stories down from the
best that they could understand.

281
00:18:37,266 --> 00:18:42,668
So the Mabinagi is actually about lords
and ladies and kings and queens, but a lot

282
00:18:42,668 --> 00:18:48,329
of us who are looking to connect with that
spirituality would deem them gods and

283
00:18:48,329 --> 00:18:49,329
goddesses.

284
00:18:49,650 --> 00:18:54,352
We just don't know for sure if that's the
way that the ancient Celtic people

285
00:18:54,352 --> 00:18:55,253
believed.

286
00:18:56,254 --> 00:19:02,257
Versus, in comparison to that, the Romans
and the Greeks wrote everything down.

287
00:19:02,277 --> 00:19:05,039
They carved it into stone.

288
00:19:05,179 --> 00:19:07,620
We know everything about their gods and
goddesses.

289
00:19:07,620 --> 00:19:10,502
We know what their stories were all about.

290
00:19:10,502 --> 00:19:13,404
We know their origin.

291
00:19:13,404 --> 00:19:16,305
We know what they were gods and goddesses
of.

292
00:19:16,482 --> 00:19:22,826
and it's a little bit easier to translate
that into today and use that as we will.

293
00:19:23,707 --> 00:19:29,751
But this kind of helps us understand the
importance of the written language and how

294
00:19:29,751 --> 00:19:36,676
writing it down in the form that we intend
for it to be in can be really powerful and

295
00:19:36,676 --> 00:19:37,756
lasting.

296
00:19:38,077 --> 00:19:43,441
So I'm gonna talk about how we can use the
written word to manifest and to get

297
00:19:43,441 --> 00:19:45,081
connected with the magic.

298
00:19:45,270 --> 00:19:48,952
I'm gonna talk about Julia Cameron's book,
The Artist's Way.

299
00:19:48,952 --> 00:19:53,515
This is a book that is for artists and how
we can unblock creativity.

300
00:19:53,515 --> 00:19:57,417
But I actually think it's a great book for
anybody because we're all accessing

301
00:19:57,417 --> 00:19:58,157
creativity.

302
00:19:58,157 --> 00:20:01,699
We're all accessing creating the life that
we wanna create.

303
00:20:01,699 --> 00:20:03,581
And so I highly recommend the book.

304
00:20:03,581 --> 00:20:08,724
But in the book, she doesn't just
encourage, she almost assigns, makes it

305
00:20:08,724 --> 00:20:11,965
mandatory that you do morning pages.

306
00:20:12,234 --> 00:20:17,436
And she talks about morning pages as a
practice that when you first start, it may

307
00:20:17,436 --> 00:20:19,597
feel like a chore and you really don't
wanna do it.

308
00:20:19,597 --> 00:20:25,399
In fact, a friend of mine that went to the
Healing Arts School with me, we had to do

309
00:20:25,399 --> 00:20:27,320
morning pages as part of an assignment.

310
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:32,222
We had to log it in and she hated them at
first.

311
00:20:32,222 --> 00:20:35,924
She actually ranted and raved for a good
20 minutes about it.

312
00:20:35,964 --> 00:20:36,924
It was hilarious.

313
00:20:36,924 --> 00:20:39,605
She just said, I hate this.

314
00:20:40,802 --> 00:20:46,185
So I often say, start with one page, but
in the book she says, do three pages.

315
00:20:46,365 --> 00:20:50,788
And what you do is you get like a really
cheap, 69 cent notebook, spiral bound

316
00:20:50,788 --> 00:20:56,031
notebook, college ruled lined paper, and
you have that next to your bed.

317
00:20:56,511 --> 00:21:01,795
And the idea is, as soon as you wake up in
the morning, before you do anything else,

318
00:21:01,795 --> 00:21:06,657
before you even get out of bed, you grab
that notebook and you start writing.

319
00:21:06,986 --> 00:21:11,307
You write for three full pages without
stopping.

320
00:21:11,827 --> 00:21:13,147
And I usually start with one.

321
00:21:13,147 --> 00:21:16,268
I tell people to start with one and then
work your way up to it, just so that you

322
00:21:16,268 --> 00:21:18,089
can form the habit first.

323
00:21:18,089 --> 00:21:20,829
Once it becomes a habit, it's much easier
to do.

324
00:21:21,230 --> 00:21:24,650
But you write continuous thought.

325
00:21:24,811 --> 00:21:26,491
So you never stop and think.

326
00:21:26,491 --> 00:21:28,451
You just write what you're thinking.

327
00:21:28,492 --> 00:21:31,572
And sometimes that means you're writing, I
don't know what to write, I don't know

328
00:21:31,572 --> 00:21:35,613
what to write, I don't know what to write,
until you think of something else.

329
00:21:36,470 --> 00:21:43,412
But it's like opening the floodgates of
creativity, moving your inner critic out

330
00:21:43,412 --> 00:21:49,355
of the way, and doing a little bit of an
energetic thought dump on the paper.

331
00:21:50,095 --> 00:21:54,517
So all of those menial tasks that you're
thinking about, all of the negativity

332
00:21:54,517 --> 00:21:58,599
you're thinking about, all of the just
anything and everything that you're

333
00:21:58,599 --> 00:22:01,620
thinking about just gets dumped out on the
page.

334
00:22:01,620 --> 00:22:06,201
And then you can move forward with your
day with so much more clarity.

335
00:22:06,786 --> 00:22:13,731
And it lets you determine or judge whether
the inner critic in your mind is actually

336
00:22:13,731 --> 00:22:14,652
true or not.

337
00:22:14,652 --> 00:22:19,636
You get to say, actually, I am a good
artist, and I'm going to move forward with

338
00:22:19,636 --> 00:22:22,858
my day as if I am the best artist.

339
00:22:23,980 --> 00:22:26,162
It's not just a brain dump, either.

340
00:22:26,162 --> 00:22:28,123
It also unblocks creativity.

341
00:22:28,123 --> 00:22:31,345
Some of my best creative ideas have come
from warning pages.

342
00:22:31,726 --> 00:22:33,807
And I started doing it a couple years ago.

343
00:22:33,807 --> 00:22:35,287
I love doing morning pages now.

344
00:22:35,287 --> 00:22:38,549
I actually look forward to it, waking up
in the morning and just sitting and

345
00:22:38,549 --> 00:22:41,051
writing for a few minutes.

346
00:22:41,051 --> 00:22:43,252
It usually only takes about 15 minutes.

347
00:22:43,272 --> 00:22:44,733
It's very, very quick.

348
00:22:44,733 --> 00:22:48,614
Just a little ritual that I start my day
with.

349
00:22:49,455 --> 00:22:53,357
And the idea for my business, Prism
Healing, came from morning pages.

350
00:22:53,357 --> 00:22:58,480
The idea to do a podcast and the live
video classes that I offer on my

351
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,506
Instagram, all of those ideas came from
morning pages.

352
00:23:01,506 --> 00:23:06,129
when I was like, gosh, I wonder what it
would be like to do this, I wanna try it.

353
00:23:06,770 --> 00:23:10,993
Another thing that you wanna do, and this
is something that I know almost all of you

354
00:23:10,993 --> 00:23:15,496
listening have heard of, but today I'm
gonna talk about the real, real nitty

355
00:23:15,496 --> 00:23:18,879
gritty importance and magic around doing
this.

356
00:23:19,139 --> 00:23:20,960
And it's the gratitude journal.

357
00:23:21,881 --> 00:23:25,424
Now this is the one that you actually
might wanna keep for posterity.

358
00:23:25,544 --> 00:23:27,325
The morning pages.

359
00:23:27,434 --> 00:23:29,374
might have some pretty negative stuff in
it.

360
00:23:29,374 --> 00:23:31,996
You might be like, I hate this person
today.

361
00:23:31,996 --> 00:23:33,636
They're bugging me.

362
00:23:33,636 --> 00:23:37,518
There's going to be a lot of bleh spewed
out on the paper when you do morning

363
00:23:37,518 --> 00:23:38,358
pages.

364
00:23:38,358 --> 00:23:42,360
So that's something that you get to toss
in the garbage when you're done.

365
00:23:42,360 --> 00:23:47,002
But the gratitude journal is something I
also keep next to my bed.

366
00:23:47,322 --> 00:23:52,444
And there is a lot of research around the
improving of mental health when you keep a

367
00:23:52,444 --> 00:23:53,825
gratitude journal.

368
00:23:54,505 --> 00:23:56,045
But I want you to do it.

369
00:23:56,386 --> 00:23:57,886
right before bed.

370
00:23:58,106 --> 00:24:00,066
So this is before you fall asleep.

371
00:24:00,887 --> 00:24:05,228
And without focusing on any of the
negativity of the day, you just get to

372
00:24:05,228 --> 00:24:16,331
write out either listed out or just write
in sentences, write out all of the amazing

373
00:24:16,331 --> 00:24:20,332
and beautiful and wonderful things that
happened to you during the day.

374
00:24:20,832 --> 00:24:25,673
Write about your love for the people
around you.

375
00:24:25,770 --> 00:24:32,112
and why they are so great and why you just
love them.

376
00:24:32,753 --> 00:24:36,234
Even if you've been fighting with them and
you've been angry at them today, don't

377
00:24:36,234 --> 00:24:36,934
write about that.

378
00:24:36,934 --> 00:24:38,875
Write about why you love them.

379
00:24:38,915 --> 00:24:40,836
Write about why you love yourself.

380
00:24:40,836 --> 00:24:48,559
Write about all of the abundance and
beauty that is around you all day long.

381
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,781
And there's a lot of neurological research
that backs up why you would do this right

382
00:24:52,781 --> 00:24:53,781
before bed.

383
00:24:53,942 --> 00:24:59,103
Because what you're doing is you are
carving neuropathways in your brain to

384
00:24:59,103 --> 00:25:03,884
think more positively when you go with
gratitude.

385
00:25:04,364 --> 00:25:07,145
And you're getting all these good
chemicals in your brain that are

386
00:25:07,145 --> 00:25:09,266
reinforcing those new neuropathways.

387
00:25:09,266 --> 00:25:13,407
So you're getting that oxytocin when you
think about the love.

388
00:25:13,627 --> 00:25:19,669
You are getting serotonin when you think
about just the comfort that you enjoy.

389
00:25:19,669 --> 00:25:23,330
You're getting dopamine when you talk
about the excitement of what you're doing.

390
00:25:23,330 --> 00:25:28,992
to come and what you've had control over
in that day.

391
00:25:29,993 --> 00:25:34,136
And all of those good chemicals are going
into your brain, and then you go to sleep

392
00:25:34,136 --> 00:25:35,596
right after that.

393
00:25:35,756 --> 00:25:43,161
What that's doing is it's reinforcing and
rewriting and reaffirming all those

394
00:25:43,161 --> 00:25:47,423
thoughts, and it's storing them into your
long-term memory while you sleep, while

395
00:25:47,423 --> 00:25:49,084
you go through your REM cycle.

396
00:25:49,284 --> 00:25:52,505
It's going to be far more beneficial to
your brain.

397
00:25:52,738 --> 00:25:56,259
to do it right before bed, then it would
be any other time of the day.

398
00:25:56,620 --> 00:25:58,460
So keep a gratitude journal.

399
00:25:59,741 --> 00:26:04,444
Another one I came across recently is
Elizabeth Gilbert, who's the author of

400
00:26:04,444 --> 00:26:05,264
Eat, Pray, Love.

401
00:26:05,264 --> 00:26:11,307
She was on a podcast and she was talking
about, her practice is letters to love.

402
00:26:11,748 --> 00:26:13,709
And I had my art students try this last
week.

403
00:26:13,709 --> 00:26:16,230
It was amazing what they came up with.

404
00:26:16,450 --> 00:26:21,433
And what you do is you just write down,
love, what is it that you would have me

405
00:26:21,433 --> 00:26:22,673
know today?

406
00:26:23,798 --> 00:26:28,200
And then you pretend that you are love
speaking to you.

407
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:34,524
And you say everything that comes to your
mind and you write it down as if you're

408
00:26:34,524 --> 00:26:37,945
writing a letter from love to you.

409
00:26:37,945 --> 00:26:42,788
And all of the messages are a little bit
different, but they all are so beautiful

410
00:26:42,788 --> 00:26:45,089
and sometimes unexpected.

411
00:26:45,190 --> 00:26:49,352
The things that come up might be exactly
what you need to hear.

412
00:26:49,852 --> 00:26:52,653
Just like those words for your child self.

413
00:26:52,734 --> 00:26:54,935
was exactly what they needed to hear.

414
00:26:54,975 --> 00:26:59,657
And it soothes the soul in such a way that
you cannot get that feeling from anyone

415
00:26:59,657 --> 00:27:00,938
else in your life.

416
00:27:01,018 --> 00:27:03,559
Only you can give it to yourself.

417
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:05,721
So see what comes up.

418
00:27:05,721 --> 00:27:09,143
What do the letters from love bring up for
you?

419
00:27:09,783 --> 00:27:12,164
And then of course we have affirmations.

420
00:27:12,305 --> 00:27:16,747
Affirmations are statements of things that
you want to be true, and you pretend as if

421
00:27:16,747 --> 00:27:17,708
they are true.

422
00:27:17,708 --> 00:27:20,849
I am wealthy, I am beautiful.

423
00:27:21,090 --> 00:27:23,411
I am a loving creature.

424
00:27:25,072 --> 00:27:28,394
There are thousands of different
affirmations, and you can actually look

425
00:27:28,394 --> 00:27:31,996
those up too and find ones that are just
right for you.

426
00:27:32,316 --> 00:27:37,059
Affirmations can be taped up around your
bathroom mirror as you get ready in the

427
00:27:37,059 --> 00:27:37,459
morning.

428
00:27:37,459 --> 00:27:41,861
You speak those affirmations over and over
again, and you say them before bed, and

429
00:27:41,861 --> 00:27:43,502
you say them when you wake up.

430
00:27:43,983 --> 00:27:48,185
But we're going to talk a little bit more
about what to connect affirmations with as

431
00:27:48,185 --> 00:27:49,405
we talk about.

432
00:27:50,194 --> 00:27:55,038
what the next step is when you have the
words, you also need the will.

433
00:27:55,238 --> 00:27:57,780
So the affirmations alone are not enough.

434
00:27:58,021 --> 00:28:03,566
But in expressing your desires to the
universe, just being able to say, this is

435
00:28:03,566 --> 00:28:09,852
what I want to happen, remember in
positive language, not in not language,

436
00:28:09,852 --> 00:28:15,077
like I just did, not saying not, but
saying what it is that you want, what you

437
00:28:15,077 --> 00:28:16,117
desire.

438
00:28:16,810 --> 00:28:20,833
And another thing that's really fun to do
if you're the witchy type like me are

439
00:28:20,833 --> 00:28:24,455
those chanting and mantras.

440
00:28:24,455 --> 00:28:32,221
It's really great for your thorough chakra
if you can sing what you want or chant

441
00:28:32,221 --> 00:28:33,502
what you want.

442
00:28:33,502 --> 00:28:37,965
There's something called Awen, which is
the spark of creation in the druid come

443
00:28:37,965 --> 00:28:38,705
from.

444
00:28:38,806 --> 00:28:41,348
The druids have Awen.

445
00:28:41,348 --> 00:28:44,189
And when you want to connect with Awen,
which is to

446
00:28:44,194 --> 00:28:49,036
to bring forward that creative energy,
make it happen in your life.

447
00:28:49,077 --> 00:28:56,221
I will just chant Awen when I'm meditating
and I will elongate the vowels and I will

448
00:28:56,221 --> 00:28:58,303
try it in different tones.

449
00:28:58,303 --> 00:29:02,426
I am not a singer, so it doesn't
necessarily sound beautiful unless I'm in

450
00:29:02,426 --> 00:29:04,547
the shower and it sounds wonderful.

451
00:29:04,547 --> 00:29:08,729
But I just sit and chant those sounds and
noises and.

452
00:29:08,874 --> 00:29:13,318
To me, they have intention and meaning,
and that's what you want your chanting and

453
00:29:13,318 --> 00:29:15,039
your mantras to be.

454
00:29:15,139 --> 00:29:22,125
The om, when you are meditating and you're
using om, make sure you look it up and

455
00:29:22,125 --> 00:29:26,910
understand it and know what it is so that
you can have that in mind when you are

456
00:29:26,910 --> 00:29:29,291
chanting that and bringing that to you.

457
00:29:29,932 --> 00:29:35,917
Now, you may be able to express those
desires to your

458
00:29:36,338 --> 00:29:41,939
spirit guides or your team of angels or
whatever it is that you want to give it a

459
00:29:41,939 --> 00:29:43,079
name to.

460
00:29:43,139 --> 00:29:48,601
For anybody who is a spiritual type
person, it does help to have speaking out

461
00:29:48,601 --> 00:29:55,343
to those that you are accessing from
another world or from another dimension.

462
00:29:55,343 --> 00:29:59,624
If you are talking to your angels, you
might want to say, angels, this is what I

463
00:29:59,624 --> 00:30:00,364
want.

464
00:30:00,364 --> 00:30:02,145
This is what I want to happen.

465
00:30:02,205 --> 00:30:05,305
And I am grateful and ready to receive.

466
00:30:06,174 --> 00:30:13,759
So there is a way to speak the words in
the language that will bring it to you.

467
00:30:13,759 --> 00:30:16,561
I guess what I'm saying is there is a
right way and a wrong way to do it.

468
00:30:16,561 --> 00:30:20,905
So be very careful about what your
intentions are.

469
00:30:20,905 --> 00:30:25,008
All right, I hope that gives you a lot of
fantastic, great information on what it is

470
00:30:25,008 --> 00:30:29,651
that you are wanting to create when you
create these spells for yourself.

471
00:30:30,052 --> 00:30:32,953
And now it's time for a question from a
listener.

472
00:30:33,430 --> 00:30:37,691
This is being recorded before my first
episode comes out, so we don't have any

473
00:30:37,691 --> 00:30:45,273
actual listeners yet, but I am pulling
from my clients and from friends and from

474
00:30:45,273 --> 00:30:48,593
social media, things that have been asked
of me before.

475
00:30:48,614 --> 00:30:50,774
So this is a question from a listener.

476
00:30:50,774 --> 00:30:58,956
She says, I recently had a string of bad
luck and bad health, and I can't seem to

477
00:30:58,956 --> 00:31:00,117
catch a break lately.

478
00:31:00,117 --> 00:31:01,617
I'm always broke.

479
00:31:01,797 --> 00:31:03,477
Is it my fault?

480
00:31:04,438 --> 00:31:08,159
This is a fascinating question when we
talk about energy and when we talk about

481
00:31:08,159 --> 00:31:09,159
spell work.

482
00:31:09,159 --> 00:31:15,201
And the answer is a little bit
complicated, but I'll try to be succinct

483
00:31:15,201 --> 00:31:18,902
when I say, is it your fault?

484
00:31:19,162 --> 00:31:21,283
A little bit yes and a little bit no.

485
00:31:22,763 --> 00:31:24,524
And I'm going to explain.

486
00:31:25,064 --> 00:31:30,885
So when we say is something your fault,
when it seems to be circumstantial,

487
00:31:32,674 --> 00:31:38,417
The mindset that we create for ourselves,
the frequencies of our thoughts and our

488
00:31:38,417 --> 00:31:42,801
feelings that we are projecting out into
the universe, a lot of it is subconscious.

489
00:31:42,801 --> 00:31:47,484
A lot of it is just how we've always done
life and this is how we know to move

490
00:31:47,484 --> 00:31:48,224
forward.

491
00:31:48,224 --> 00:31:49,685
We don't know any different.

492
00:31:49,685 --> 00:31:53,608
So in that way, no, it's not your fault.

493
00:31:53,608 --> 00:31:56,810
You just are who you are and you're doing
the best that you can.

494
00:31:58,151 --> 00:32:01,910
Also, there are circumstances in our
environment and other people.

495
00:32:01,910 --> 00:32:05,351
We need to remember we have no control
over those things.

496
00:32:06,151 --> 00:32:08,912
But we do have control over ourselves.

497
00:32:09,213 --> 00:32:16,036
We do have the ability to work within on
our own thoughts and our own feelings and

498
00:32:16,036 --> 00:32:21,558
our own belief systems that make our lives
into what we want.

499
00:32:21,558 --> 00:32:26,161
And we actually have a lot more power and
control than we think we do when we talk

500
00:32:26,161 --> 00:32:28,581
about controlling ourselves.

501
00:32:28,962 --> 00:32:33,506
We cannot exert that control on other
people because they have autonomy.

502
00:32:33,647 --> 00:32:37,291
So that is not something that we can
project to them.

503
00:32:37,291 --> 00:32:42,877
However, when we raise our whole
frequency, when we are doing the inner

504
00:32:42,877 --> 00:32:48,683
work on ourselves and focusing on that,
it's amazing the effect that it has, the

505
00:32:48,683 --> 00:32:51,185
ripple effect that it has on everybody
around us.

506
00:32:52,426 --> 00:32:56,347
Everybody was in a really low vibe place
when I started my healing journey.

507
00:32:56,347 --> 00:32:59,707
Everyone in my household was in a really
bad place.

508
00:33:00,168 --> 00:33:02,168
And I wanted so much to control that.

509
00:33:02,168 --> 00:33:04,209
I wanted everybody else to be happy.

510
00:33:04,729 --> 00:33:10,210
But then I started working on me and
focusing on myself and staying in my lane.

511
00:33:10,771 --> 00:33:14,512
And over the years, I got to see the
effect that it had on everyone around me.

512
00:33:14,512 --> 00:33:19,453
I watched everybody else raise their
frequencies because they like being around

513
00:33:19,453 --> 00:33:19,753
that.

514
00:33:19,753 --> 00:33:21,093
They like what that feels like.

515
00:33:21,093 --> 00:33:22,153
And they want...

516
00:33:22,446 --> 00:33:23,806
to do that also.

517
00:33:24,507 --> 00:33:25,528
And it's incredible.

518
00:33:25,528 --> 00:33:28,109
It's a power you don't even know you have.

519
00:33:28,970 --> 00:33:30,772
I hope that answers that question just a
little bit.

520
00:33:30,772 --> 00:33:34,935
And if I didn't answer that question to
your satisfaction, please write in to me

521
00:33:34,935 --> 00:33:39,778
and ask more detailed questions that I can
answer on future episodes.

522
00:33:40,139 --> 00:33:45,703
So next week, we are going to be deep
diving into the will of creating spells.

523
00:33:45,703 --> 00:33:49,225
So this is training your body and brain to
believe it.

524
00:33:50,154 --> 00:33:53,135
Some resources on today's episode I want
to point out.

525
00:33:53,135 --> 00:33:57,097
If you're looking for more information on
this, I want you to look at the book, The

526
00:33:57,097 --> 00:34:04,319
Isaiah Effect, Decoding the Lost Science
of Prayer and Prophecy by Greg Braden.

527
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:09,382
This is an excellent book that talks a lot
about the right way to pray so that you

528
00:34:09,382 --> 00:34:11,262
actually get what you want.

529
00:34:11,543 --> 00:34:14,644
And we talked a little bit about that
today.

530
00:34:14,644 --> 00:34:17,485
So another one is, that's great, is

531
00:34:17,966 --> 00:34:21,447
spells and pagan practices for kids.

532
00:34:21,447 --> 00:34:27,830
There's a book called Circle Round that I
recently purchased for my family because I

533
00:34:27,830 --> 00:34:36,354
wanted to incorporate a lot of the myths,
folklore, practices, connecting with land,

534
00:34:36,354 --> 00:34:41,556
connecting with the trees and with nature
and what that all looks like when you're

535
00:34:41,556 --> 00:34:43,990
raising children as a practice.

536
00:34:43,990 --> 00:34:45,631
So I bought that book for my family.

537
00:34:45,631 --> 00:34:49,794
And so that's one that's a great resource
if you're looking for something like that.

538
00:34:50,695 --> 00:34:55,739
And then also I mentioned Elizabeth
Gilbert, who is an author and you can look

539
00:34:55,739 --> 00:35:01,944
her up and she has lots of fascinating
materials in her books as well.

540
00:35:02,324 --> 00:35:10,371
So I want you to look into finding me on
social media, follow me on Instagram,

541
00:35:10,371 --> 00:35:13,953
that's at Prism underscore healing.

542
00:35:14,714 --> 00:35:18,015
On my Instagram, I post a lot of
information.

543
00:35:18,015 --> 00:35:19,296
So more of this.

544
00:35:19,296 --> 00:35:22,958
If you are like, wow, this is really
hitting me, I want more.

545
00:35:23,118 --> 00:35:27,721
I have already been posting things on that
social media account for a couple of

546
00:35:27,721 --> 00:35:28,461
years.

547
00:35:28,461 --> 00:35:31,503
There's a lot of great resources and
information there.

548
00:35:31,503 --> 00:35:37,066
Books that I read, I do a lot of live
videos and there are classes that you can

549
00:35:37,066 --> 00:35:40,087
attend, but I have them posted there on my
feed.

550
00:35:40,087 --> 00:35:41,508
So look those up.

551
00:35:41,508 --> 00:35:43,729
I do a lot there.

552
00:35:43,729 --> 00:35:44,449
And...

553
00:35:44,586 --> 00:35:49,328
Just following me will give you the
information you need to find out what I'm

554
00:35:49,328 --> 00:35:50,788
doing and what I'm up to.

555
00:35:52,129 --> 00:35:54,590
I am also on Facebook.

556
00:35:55,070 --> 00:35:59,112
I am Courtney Pearl, and I also have a
page, Mrs.

557
00:35:59,112 --> 00:36:02,453
Earl's Art and Storytime is my page for
the kids.

558
00:36:02,453 --> 00:36:05,334
This is showing what I do with my art
lessons and the things that I do with

559
00:36:05,334 --> 00:36:09,716
kids, and I post a lot of what I do there
as well.

560
00:36:09,996 --> 00:36:12,530
And then you can always find me on my
website.

561
00:36:12,530 --> 00:36:16,471
I have a blog and I have a list of all of
my services that I offer.

562
00:36:16,471 --> 00:36:23,093
If any of those services that we discussed
today when creating these belief systems

563
00:36:23,093 --> 00:36:27,694
that work for you, I am a Reiki
practitioner and an emotional processor

564
00:36:27,694 --> 00:36:33,196
and I have a plethora of services that I
offer and you can look for that on my

565
00:36:33,196 --> 00:36:35,576
website prism-healing.com.

566
00:36:36,617 --> 00:36:40,098
And on these platforms, I would love for
you to send me a question.

567
00:36:40,098 --> 00:36:44,341
that will be featured on our future
episodes in the question from a listener

568
00:36:44,341 --> 00:36:45,802
portion of the show.

569
00:36:46,002 --> 00:36:47,824
So please write in your questions.

570
00:36:47,824 --> 00:36:50,846
What is it that you're looking to know
more about?

571
00:36:50,846 --> 00:36:55,750
It can be about paganism, it can be magic,
it can be healing, it can be about

572
00:36:55,750 --> 00:36:58,673
problems and things that you're having in
your own life and you'd like to hear my

573
00:36:58,673 --> 00:36:59,694
perspective.

574
00:36:59,694 --> 00:37:02,316
I would be happy to give that.

575
00:37:02,356 --> 00:37:06,900
And I would like to thank Ride the Wave
Media, this podcasting network that I'm a

576
00:37:06,900 --> 00:37:09,421
part of and so lucky to be a part of.

577
00:37:10,166 --> 00:37:15,691
Blane and Becks on Radio Daybreak, and
Sarah at Daybreak Treasures Boutique for

00:37:20,415 --> 00:37:24,719
Thank you for joining me today, and I hope
you go and make some magic out there, you

580
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:25,960
witches and wizards.
