1
00:00:01,500 --> 00:00:03,319
Courtney Pearl: Welcome
to Practically Magick.

2
00:00:03,380 --> 00:00:07,836
This is Courtney Pearl, Pagan
Witch, Card Reader, Healer,

3
00:00:08,246 --> 00:00:12,956
Spiritualist, Celtic Priestess,
Teacher, Artist, and Mystic Seeker.

4
00:00:13,586 --> 00:00:17,426
I am discovering true and real Magick in
the world and I wish to share it with you.

5
00:00:18,236 --> 00:00:19,006
So let's begin.

6
00:00:19,646 --> 00:00:22,316
Our episode always starts
out with a card reading.

7
00:00:22,366 --> 00:00:23,806
That is something that I do.

8
00:00:23,976 --> 00:00:26,166
Card healer and card reader.

9
00:00:26,846 --> 00:00:32,946
I use intuitive card reading
as one of my many practices.

10
00:00:33,106 --> 00:00:37,096
You can book appointments with me
and I can do them from anywhere

11
00:00:37,136 --> 00:00:38,996
over the phone or video chat.

12
00:00:39,266 --> 00:00:42,806
So if you're interested in booking
me are booking a session with me.

13
00:00:42,926 --> 00:00:45,126
That is one of the many
services that I provide.

14
00:00:46,776 --> 00:00:49,996
And today we're going to
start by pulling a card.

15
00:00:49,996 --> 00:00:54,156
Today's episode topic is
going to be on trauma in the

16
00:00:54,166 --> 00:00:57,176
body and the effects of that.

17
00:00:57,296 --> 00:01:02,806
And so I I specifically want to pull
a card for those of you who have

18
00:01:02,806 --> 00:01:09,326
maybe been dealing with physical
issues illnesses or things like that

19
00:01:09,346 --> 00:01:14,756
and see what this card that we're
pulling today is going to say for you.

20
00:01:15,116 --> 00:01:16,936
What is it that you need to know?

21
00:01:18,406 --> 00:01:20,556
And I am using the Ethereal Visions.

22
00:01:21,821 --> 00:01:25,471
One of my very first and favorite
tarot decks that I love because

23
00:01:25,471 --> 00:01:29,551
it has a beautiful gold foil and I
love things that are shiny and have

24
00:01:30,621 --> 00:01:33,921
gold, copper, silver foil on it.

25
00:01:33,961 --> 00:01:37,351
It's just, it's Magickal, shiny things.

26
00:01:38,791 --> 00:01:45,581
And the card that I've pulled today is the
five of wands, which is very interesting

27
00:01:45,581 --> 00:01:55,046
because it does have an essence of turmoil
when the number five shows up and This

28
00:01:55,106 --> 00:01:59,696
card specifically is very interesting
and it's almost comical to me because

29
00:01:59,696 --> 00:02:04,896
it's a group of five men, at least in
this card, it's always they're males.

30
00:02:05,306 --> 00:02:08,986
So they're boys none of them have
facial hair, so I get the impression

31
00:02:08,986 --> 00:02:10,816
that they're young, youthful boys.

32
00:02:11,016 --> 00:02:16,186
They are standing in a circle, each
of them holding wooden sticks, wands.

33
00:02:17,071 --> 00:02:22,861
And they are sort of, they look
like they're just maybe standing

34
00:02:22,861 --> 00:02:27,711
in a circle kind of hitting each
other or maybe playing combat

35
00:02:27,711 --> 00:02:29,051
with each other with these swords.

36
00:02:30,441 --> 00:02:32,921
Uh, wands, sorry, not swords.

37
00:02:33,911 --> 00:02:35,971
I'm having a lovely time with words today.

38
00:02:36,371 --> 00:02:41,281
So the impression that I get, especially
when this card is being pulled with an

39
00:02:41,291 --> 00:02:50,816
aspect of I want to talk about physical
Symptoms, physical embodiment of our

40
00:02:50,816 --> 00:02:59,751
stress and our trauma and I want to say
that this card is telling you specifically

41
00:03:00,401 --> 00:03:04,591
that when you are looking for the cause
of your symptoms, when you're looking

42
00:03:04,591 --> 00:03:09,151
for diagnosis and you've been going and
getting tests done and you're trying to

43
00:03:09,151 --> 00:03:16,131
figure out what is off balance, what is
not quite right, where is the, the source

44
00:03:16,131 --> 00:03:20,691
of these symptoms that I'm having, it
kind of feels like you just keep going

45
00:03:20,691 --> 00:03:22,131
around in circles and circles and circles.

46
00:03:22,916 --> 00:03:26,916
Like, every time you see a specialist,
the doctor is like, well, actually,

47
00:03:26,916 --> 00:03:30,336
it could be this other thing, so you
need to go to a different specialist.

48
00:03:31,286 --> 00:03:36,116
And then, there's another symptom
that is related to another symptom

49
00:03:36,126 --> 00:03:37,636
that's related to another symptom.

50
00:03:37,806 --> 00:03:43,066
So, it feels a lot like this energy of
like, I'm just going around in circles

51
00:03:43,706 --> 00:03:51,076
and never quite accomplishing what I need,
health wise, to get this figured out.

52
00:03:51,786 --> 00:03:54,716
It feels like it's just one issue
after another after another.

53
00:03:55,866 --> 00:03:56,976
And that is very tumultuous.

54
00:03:56,976 --> 00:04:02,346
This is very, like, kind of, uh, in
all fairness, it's kind of a low vibe

55
00:04:02,366 --> 00:04:07,676
card because it's, it's sort of invokes
a feeling of, like, frustration.

56
00:04:08,306 --> 00:04:11,886
It feels like there's a lot of
energy putting, being put into this,

57
00:04:11,886 --> 00:04:15,476
but not enough is coming from it.

58
00:04:15,686 --> 00:04:17,316
Not enough is getting done.

59
00:04:17,326 --> 00:04:23,391
Not enough information is being
figured out to actually get you

60
00:04:23,431 --> 00:04:25,561
on a trajectory to good health.

61
00:04:26,621 --> 00:04:32,661
And if that feels like that is what
this card means for you, if that feels

62
00:04:32,661 --> 00:04:36,151
like it resonates with you, then this
episode is going to be absolutely

63
00:04:36,151 --> 00:04:38,371
perfect to discuss with you today.

64
00:04:38,896 --> 00:04:45,526
Because we are going to talk about
how trauma specifically stress or

65
00:04:46,766 --> 00:04:50,476
even just things and events that
have happened in our lives, how they

66
00:04:50,476 --> 00:04:51,996
can actually affect us physically.

67
00:04:53,126 --> 00:04:55,586
And I'd like to start out with a
little story time, and the story

68
00:04:55,586 --> 00:05:00,556
that I picked today is folk,
it's a folktale from Scotland.

69
00:05:01,421 --> 00:05:07,511
And I don't know if you know about
the Selkie folklore, but in Scotland

70
00:05:07,521 --> 00:05:12,751
and a lot of places that are sort
of Celtic inspired there is folklore

71
00:05:12,751 --> 00:05:14,471
and legends about the Selkie.

72
00:05:14,841 --> 00:05:19,761
The Selkie are mythical creatures
that are basically seals.

73
00:05:20,396 --> 00:05:26,126
It comes from the word that means seals,
and they are seals that can shed their

74
00:05:26,226 --> 00:05:29,866
skin, and if they shed their seal skin,
then they are like humans underneath.

75
00:05:30,346 --> 00:05:33,796
So they live in the ocean, they live
in the sea, but they can shed their

76
00:05:33,796 --> 00:05:35,226
skin and they can come up on land.

77
00:05:36,161 --> 00:05:40,241
And there's a particular, uh, famous
story about a selkie, where a man

78
00:05:40,271 --> 00:05:46,641
is catches glimpse of these group
of selkies dancing in the moonlight,

79
00:05:46,851 --> 00:05:52,811
and he finds this sight captivating,
and there's one particular selkie

80
00:05:53,091 --> 00:05:55,131
woman he can't keep his eyes off of.

81
00:05:55,851 --> 00:06:01,861
And it just so happens that she's one
of the last ones to put her selkie

82
00:06:01,861 --> 00:06:06,551
skin back on, as all the rest of them
have gone into the ocean, and so he's

83
00:06:06,551 --> 00:06:12,901
able to snatch her skin away, and
she has no choice but to go with him.

84
00:06:13,471 --> 00:06:16,611
And they get married, it's sort
of a Beauty and the Beast thing.

85
00:06:17,166 --> 00:06:19,736
situation or maybe the little mermaid.

86
00:06:19,746 --> 00:06:24,466
She comes from the ocean and she's
now human and so they get married

87
00:06:24,466 --> 00:06:29,136
and have children and all this time
she's sort of trapped in this life

88
00:06:29,176 --> 00:06:33,316
because he has stolen her skin and
hidden it away where she can't find it.

89
00:06:33,956 --> 00:06:39,101
So she is always feeling called
back to the sea, always feeling

90
00:06:39,101 --> 00:06:44,341
like her true home and her true
self is to be the seal in the sea.

91
00:06:45,221 --> 00:06:52,561
And, uh, eventually one of her children,
her son, comes to her as she's sweeping

92
00:06:52,571 --> 00:06:57,091
or, or doing some kind of housework
that, you know, the women folk do.

93
00:06:57,531 --> 00:07:01,101
Her son comes to her with the
selkie skin that he's found.

94
00:07:01,451 --> 00:07:03,941
He's uncovered it in his adventures.

95
00:07:04,071 --> 00:07:07,556
And So she has a choice to make.

96
00:07:07,826 --> 00:07:14,636
She has been a human or living as a
human for many years, and she's sort

97
00:07:14,636 --> 00:07:18,726
of, torn between going back to the ocean
and being where she's always wanted to

98
00:07:18,746 --> 00:07:21,796
be, or to be here with her children.

99
00:07:22,186 --> 00:07:27,266
And ultimately, the call to be in the
ocean is too great, and she takes the

100
00:07:27,266 --> 00:07:32,956
skin and she runs, and the husband
comes home just in time to see her.

101
00:07:34,316 --> 00:07:37,936
Entering the ocean, entering the
waters, putting on her silky skin

102
00:07:37,976 --> 00:07:43,976
and and he and the children watch
as she goes off into the sunset.

103
00:07:44,566 --> 00:07:48,626
And it's a sad story.

104
00:07:48,886 --> 00:07:52,516
It's, it has so much
symbolism and so much meaning.

105
00:07:53,166 --> 00:07:59,841
But in this particular topic today, I
bring this story forward because There

106
00:07:59,891 --> 00:08:07,771
is something about a call to each of us
that is bringing us back to ourselves.

107
00:08:07,981 --> 00:08:13,741
There is an embodiment that just
like putting on the selfie skin or

108
00:08:13,741 --> 00:08:19,251
taking it off to be human, one or the
other, it's still like metaphorically

109
00:08:19,621 --> 00:08:27,361
we are all learning how to answer
the call to our true selves.

110
00:08:28,311 --> 00:08:37,076
And our conscious mind doesn't
always remember everything, right?

111
00:08:37,156 --> 00:08:42,496
Our long term memory has been
sorted through and it's a memory of

112
00:08:42,496 --> 00:08:43,986
a memory of a memory of a memory.

113
00:08:44,746 --> 00:08:48,476
They say that when you're remembering
something from from the past, you're

114
00:08:48,476 --> 00:08:52,616
not actually remembering that moment
or that event, you're remembering

115
00:08:52,656 --> 00:08:54,196
the last time you remembered it.

116
00:08:55,116 --> 00:09:01,606
So everything that happened to you
is sorted through these filters

117
00:09:01,816 --> 00:09:03,916
and some of those messages.

118
00:09:04,381 --> 00:09:08,221
are filtered into your subconscious
and become a part of your body.

119
00:09:10,031 --> 00:09:13,881
So your conscious mind is not always
going to remember everything that

120
00:09:13,881 --> 00:09:20,271
happened to you and every detail exactly
as it was, but your body does remember.

121
00:09:21,421 --> 00:09:28,121
Your body holds information and it's
really important to understand that the

122
00:09:28,131 --> 00:09:33,031
ailments and the disease and the sickness
and the pains and the aches and all of

123
00:09:33,031 --> 00:09:34,611
the things that happen to us physically.

124
00:09:35,296 --> 00:09:42,006
are not happening independently
of our entire well being.

125
00:09:42,996 --> 00:09:49,086
And I bring this up because the
difference between Western medicine

126
00:09:49,126 --> 00:09:55,416
and Eastern medicine oftentimes is that
here where where we practice Western

127
00:09:55,416 --> 00:10:00,746
medicine in North America, Turtle
Island, we are often compartmentalizing

128
00:10:00,766 --> 00:10:05,776
health in such large disparities.

129
00:10:05,816 --> 00:10:09,076
Like, we have the medical health system.

130
00:10:09,486 --> 00:10:13,066
Of course, if you're having medical
issues and you need a medical doctor,

131
00:10:13,066 --> 00:10:14,826
you would go to an expert in that field.

132
00:10:14,826 --> 00:10:19,886
And so it's, you're getting information
that is very much in that realm

133
00:10:20,886 --> 00:10:22,366
when you go to a medical doctor.

134
00:10:23,756 --> 00:10:28,106
You might try a naturopathic doctor,
which incorporates a little bit

135
00:10:28,106 --> 00:10:32,161
more of Eastern medicine, a little
bit more of the naturopathic route.

136
00:10:32,701 --> 00:10:34,111
to, uh, to healing.

137
00:10:34,671 --> 00:10:37,641
But for the most part, you're
going to go to separate people for

138
00:10:37,641 --> 00:10:39,481
separate aspects of your healing.

139
00:10:39,561 --> 00:10:45,971
And if you are having symptoms of an
illness, you would go to a medical doctor.

140
00:10:46,631 --> 00:10:50,181
It may not occur to you to
maybe go see a psychiatrist.

141
00:10:50,776 --> 00:10:54,646
because that would be
for mental health issues.

142
00:10:55,636 --> 00:11:01,396
It may not occur to you to go to
your spiritual leader your church

143
00:11:01,436 --> 00:11:05,676
authority person or whoever you
deem to be your spiritual authority

144
00:11:06,346 --> 00:11:08,516
because that person would probably
tell you to go see a doctor.

145
00:11:09,536 --> 00:11:12,396
They would say, I don't know why you're
having these symptoms, go see a doctor.

146
00:11:13,246 --> 00:11:19,526
But in eastern medicine, it's much more,
uh, blended Their culture understands

147
00:11:19,526 --> 00:11:22,516
health to be much more interconnected.

148
00:11:22,646 --> 00:11:27,026
It's like, if you are having
physical symptoms, yes, there

149
00:11:27,026 --> 00:11:28,896
is probably a medical reason.

150
00:11:29,166 --> 00:11:33,696
And there's definitely ways to go about
figuring out what's going on there.

151
00:11:34,486 --> 00:11:38,946
But, it's not only medical.

152
00:11:39,366 --> 00:11:46,606
There's definitely spiritual, emotional,
and all of those things are connected.

153
00:11:47,266 --> 00:11:52,321
And so, When I started doing my work
and learning about the healing arts

154
00:11:52,561 --> 00:11:57,421
in emotional and energy healing I
went to the Institute of Healing

155
00:11:57,441 --> 00:12:03,191
Arts and we had several books that
were required reading in our program.

156
00:12:03,831 --> 00:12:08,771
And it helped us to learn how these
physical things that our body, how

157
00:12:08,811 --> 00:12:14,356
it can hold, energy, and that where
these physical things are happening,

158
00:12:14,366 --> 00:12:18,556
whether it's because of an injury,
or because of an illness, or because

159
00:12:18,556 --> 00:12:24,356
of genetics, whatever the reason is,
it is more than just a medical answer

160
00:12:24,776 --> 00:12:26,546
to uncovering what that could be.

161
00:12:27,196 --> 00:12:32,041
And that when we approach it with
Okay, let's try and dig into what the

162
00:12:32,041 --> 00:12:37,201
emotional or blocked energy that's
trapped in that part of the body might be.

163
00:12:37,751 --> 00:12:41,071
There's an aspect of healing
that can be very productive.

164
00:12:41,811 --> 00:12:44,331
And this is not to say that you
shouldn't go to a medical doctor

165
00:12:44,331 --> 00:12:47,381
because I firmly and highly believe
in Western medicine as well.

166
00:12:47,931 --> 00:12:49,681
But they're not trained in that same way.

167
00:12:49,701 --> 00:12:51,791
They're not trained to know
about all of those other things

168
00:12:51,791 --> 00:12:52,941
that could be going on too.

169
00:12:53,956 --> 00:12:59,166
And so, this is sort of my plug to
say if you are having illnesses you

170
00:12:59,166 --> 00:13:03,766
don't understand or the doctors can't
seem to find an answer for, it might

171
00:13:03,966 --> 00:13:08,706
do you some good to go looking in
another route as well, in addition to.

172
00:13:09,376 --> 00:13:12,356
And that's where Reiki healing
and emotional processing,

173
00:13:12,376 --> 00:13:13,766
some of the work that I do,

174
00:13:14,436 --> 00:13:14,656
is

175
00:13:14,656 --> 00:13:16,456
Courtney Pearl: really useful
and helpful in that area.

176
00:13:17,076 --> 00:13:22,646
So we were able to learn a lot about
how stress, can affect the body.

177
00:13:23,146 --> 00:13:27,086
And I don't think I'm stretching
here to ask you to believe that.

178
00:13:27,116 --> 00:13:32,036
I think most people can buy into the fact
that stress does a number on our body.

179
00:13:32,596 --> 00:13:37,726
But I'm going to explain some of the
things that come from one of the books

180
00:13:37,746 --> 00:13:43,566
we had to read, which is Your Body
Doesn't Lie by John Diamond Emdy.

181
00:13:45,336 --> 00:13:48,736
And he explains it in the book this way.

182
00:13:48,786 --> 00:13:51,516
You have a gland that's right
in the center of your chest

183
00:13:51,646 --> 00:13:52,896
called the thymus gland.

184
00:13:53,651 --> 00:13:57,461
And back when they first started doing
autopsies, you know, a few centuries

185
00:13:57,461 --> 00:14:06,571
ago, they thought that children might
have been dying from an enlarged thymus

186
00:14:06,601 --> 00:14:09,651
gland because they didn't actually
know what the thymus gland did.

187
00:14:10,241 --> 00:14:14,821
So, they saw the thymus gland in
adults, and it was much smaller,

188
00:14:14,961 --> 00:14:16,321
and in children it was much bigger.

189
00:14:16,841 --> 00:14:20,091
Come to find out that it's
actually supposed to be big.

190
00:14:20,641 --> 00:14:26,671
that it was shrunken in adults
because it shrinks and it is

191
00:14:26,671 --> 00:14:28,591
affected quite strongly by stress.

192
00:14:29,441 --> 00:14:35,641
That the more a person has emotional
stress it's a physical result

193
00:14:35,851 --> 00:14:37,191
that the thymus gland shrinks.

194
00:14:38,201 --> 00:14:42,551
And we do not want our thymus gland
to shrink because the thymus gland

195
00:14:42,551 --> 00:14:48,051
is a factory for T cells, which
are those really amazing white

196
00:14:48,051 --> 00:14:50,591
blood cells that fight off disease.

197
00:14:50,986 --> 00:14:53,686
bacteria, and cancer cells.

198
00:14:54,916 --> 00:14:59,576
So, that just proves that there's a
direct result that the more stress

199
00:14:59,576 --> 00:15:05,036
we add to ourselves little by little
over time, if we're not processing our

200
00:15:05,036 --> 00:15:10,666
trauma, processing our emotions, if
we're not addressing those things in a

201
00:15:10,736 --> 00:15:17,471
healthy way, they do become stress that
affects our body and causes disease.

202
00:15:19,391 --> 00:15:24,921
There's also a really cool example
of how energy flows through the body.

203
00:15:24,921 --> 00:15:30,611
And again, in Eastern medicine, this
is, this is not new information at all.

204
00:15:30,651 --> 00:15:33,021
Something that the Chinese call the qi.

205
00:15:33,371 --> 00:15:38,081
It's the they understand the flow
of that qi in the meridians of the

206
00:15:38,081 --> 00:15:43,541
body, which is what acupuncture does
is help unblock those, the flow.

207
00:15:44,391 --> 00:15:49,361
And This is really cool thing called
muscle testing or kinesiology.

208
00:15:49,361 --> 00:15:54,701
This is something I use quite regularly
in my sessions with clients, which is

209
00:15:54,741 --> 00:16:02,771
that your body will lose energy when
something is adding stress to the body

210
00:16:03,921 --> 00:16:09,311
and therefore something that is untrue
to the body, whether the mind knows it or

211
00:16:09,311 --> 00:16:14,911
not, if the body knows it to be untrue,
it causes stress and it loses energy.

212
00:16:15,181 --> 00:16:16,231
And then you can use.

213
00:16:16,911 --> 00:16:22,211
Muscle testing to actually feel that
loss of energy, because the muscles

214
00:16:22,211 --> 00:16:26,891
will no longer be able to hold a strong
position if they've had a loss in energy.

215
00:16:27,851 --> 00:16:33,191
So if you didn't see my interview with
Radio Daybreak when I was on their

216
00:16:33,241 --> 00:16:38,531
on their podcast, I actually did a
demonstration of this with Becks, and

217
00:16:38,551 --> 00:16:40,551
I was able to push down on her arm.

218
00:16:40,991 --> 00:16:45,371
And when she holds her non dominant
arm out, I can give it a little push.

219
00:16:45,661 --> 00:16:46,351
Not much.

220
00:16:46,381 --> 00:16:47,471
I'm not pushing very hard.

221
00:16:47,471 --> 00:16:49,931
I'm just giving it a
little a little pressure.

222
00:16:50,281 --> 00:16:56,041
And if she's able to hold that
arm up, it's a strong test.

223
00:16:56,651 --> 00:17:01,451
But if I say a statement, or if she
says a statement that's not true,

224
00:17:01,461 --> 00:17:05,931
or that loses energy for the body,
then I can push exact same amount

225
00:17:05,931 --> 00:17:08,001
of pressure and it will go weak.

226
00:17:09,211 --> 00:17:11,181
You'll actually feel
the muscles go weaker.

227
00:17:12,361 --> 00:17:17,121
And a lot of people use muscle testing
for a variety of things, but this

228
00:17:17,121 --> 00:17:21,391
is a great tool for understanding.

229
00:17:21,521 --> 00:17:23,121
And again, it's practically Magick.

230
00:17:23,211 --> 00:17:28,181
I mean, you could actually ask your
body so many cool things like what sort

231
00:17:28,181 --> 00:17:32,961
of vitamins you need, how often do you
need to take them, for how long, for

232
00:17:32,961 --> 00:17:34,611
how many days, what's the duration.

233
00:17:35,021 --> 00:17:38,771
And you can narrow that down
very specifically to figuring out

234
00:17:38,781 --> 00:17:40,431
what is it that the body needs.

235
00:17:40,921 --> 00:17:45,471
What sort of nourishment, what sort of
emotional processing needs to be done.

236
00:17:46,251 --> 00:17:49,871
So when I do an emotional process
with a client, I am using muscle

237
00:17:49,871 --> 00:17:56,086
testing to muscle test what emotion
points are needing to be addressed.

238
00:17:57,456 --> 00:18:01,556
So I will go through a series of heavy
emotions, low vibration emotions,

239
00:18:01,686 --> 00:18:06,906
and then I will use my muscles to
muscle test what my client needs.

240
00:18:07,166 --> 00:18:09,116
And I can do this actually remotely.

241
00:18:09,166 --> 00:18:11,386
I don't have to use their
muscles for their body.

242
00:18:11,426 --> 00:18:14,116
I can actually use my muscles
for their body remotely.

243
00:18:14,666 --> 00:18:19,756
Now, what's important to understand
is that our bodies, Are going to

244
00:18:19,766 --> 00:18:27,326
carry stress and carry those, uh,
the energy of those heavy things in

245
00:18:27,336 --> 00:18:29,216
different places and in different ways.

246
00:18:29,711 --> 00:18:32,191
And those can be a clue
to help us understand.

247
00:18:33,341 --> 00:18:36,431
Now, I would have normally given
like a warning at the beginning

248
00:18:36,431 --> 00:18:41,311
of this episode if I was going to
discuss specific trauma, but I am

249
00:18:41,311 --> 00:18:43,611
not going to discuss specific trauma.

250
00:18:44,011 --> 00:18:48,911
In fact, even psychotherapists and
psychologists and psychiatrists

251
00:18:49,611 --> 00:18:54,131
cannot 100 percent classify
what is trauma and what isn't.

252
00:18:54,871 --> 00:18:59,736
And I know this to be true in my sessions
with clients is that, you know, Something

253
00:18:59,736 --> 00:19:06,126
as simple as a really bad haircut
when you were young can be trauma to

254
00:19:06,126 --> 00:19:09,756
you, and that is not to be laughed at.

255
00:19:09,776 --> 00:19:11,086
That is not to be dismissed.

256
00:19:11,626 --> 00:19:19,236
It is valid because trauma is only
classified as what is heavy and

257
00:19:19,236 --> 00:19:22,866
emotional to you, to your experience.

258
00:19:24,066 --> 00:19:27,326
So it doesn't have to be any
of the what we sometimes call

259
00:19:27,326 --> 00:19:29,826
capital T trauma experiences.

260
00:19:30,981 --> 00:19:33,541
That you might think of
when I say the word trauma.

261
00:19:33,901 --> 00:19:36,881
It can be literally
anything that comes to mind.

262
00:19:36,941 --> 00:19:41,681
And I have done whole emotional
process sessions and several emotional

263
00:19:41,681 --> 00:19:45,311
process sessions on something that
someone else might consider to be

264
00:19:45,681 --> 00:19:49,701
very lowercase t trauma, right?

265
00:19:51,036 --> 00:19:58,176
So, when I am helping a client in a
Reiki session move energy through the

266
00:19:58,186 --> 00:20:06,386
body and I am using that hands on or
hovering hand moving energy through and

267
00:20:06,426 --> 00:20:09,236
out and in the body where it needs to go.

268
00:20:10,506 --> 00:20:13,096
When I am doing emotional
processing sessions and I'm

269
00:20:13,096 --> 00:20:17,236
doing this with visualization of
pulling out shapes and colors.

270
00:20:17,831 --> 00:20:23,381
I am taking note of where in
the body these aches and pains

271
00:20:23,381 --> 00:20:26,851
and dis-ease is happening.

272
00:20:27,511 --> 00:20:34,221
And by the way, the word
disease is just dis-ease, right?

273
00:20:34,226 --> 00:20:39,221
So it can be anything dis
that is not ease in the body.

274
00:20:40,391 --> 00:20:49,031
So from before you were born to present
day, the body's genetics play a role.

275
00:20:49,616 --> 00:20:55,796
Every experience that the mother, when
you're in the womb your mother is having

276
00:20:55,796 --> 00:21:01,016
during the time that you're developing in
the womb epigenetics, how your genetics,

277
00:21:01,736 --> 00:21:07,726
how other influences like your environment
and experiences play a role in how

278
00:21:07,731 --> 00:21:10,536
your genetics show up is epigenetics.

279
00:21:11,046 --> 00:21:15,496
All of this plays a part
in becoming who you are in.

280
00:21:16,996 --> 00:21:19,856
in how you arrive to who you are today.

281
00:21:20,636 --> 00:21:29,776
And so I use a lot of feeling,
intuition, asking questions,

282
00:21:29,806 --> 00:21:31,346
things that might have happened.

283
00:21:32,046 --> 00:21:37,226
Even when I'm asking clients to access
a certain age in their past, and I say,

284
00:21:37,286 --> 00:21:42,126
what might have happened at four years
old, their conscious memories don't

285
00:21:42,136 --> 00:21:44,156
necessarily have to play a role in it.

286
00:21:44,696 --> 00:21:49,376
Actually, my very first process session
that I ever did was in the womb.

287
00:21:50,286 --> 00:21:57,326
So the facilitator asked me, okay, so
I have muscle tested your age for this

288
00:21:57,326 --> 00:21:59,906
session would be three months in the womb.

289
00:22:01,676 --> 00:22:04,266
And I don't have any memories
of three months in the womb.

290
00:22:04,576 --> 00:22:07,266
I don't know about you, but I can't
just pull that out of thin air

291
00:22:07,266 --> 00:22:09,806
and just be like, Oh, I totally
remember what it was like to be

292
00:22:09,856 --> 00:22:12,726
three months, a fetus in the womb.

293
00:22:12,726 --> 00:22:19,156
But, What I was able to do was based
on what I knew about my mom's pregnancy

294
00:22:19,156 --> 00:22:23,446
with me and what I felt coming forward.

295
00:22:24,346 --> 00:22:29,766
Because all that really matters is not
that what information we're moving through

296
00:22:29,766 --> 00:22:35,976
and processing through is technically
correct, or it has to be like proven that

297
00:22:35,986 --> 00:22:37,986
that's what it was, what was going on.

298
00:22:38,606 --> 00:22:42,136
But you are going to go with
what your body is feeling.

299
00:22:42,176 --> 00:22:43,896
It's a very intuitive process.

300
00:22:43,906 --> 00:22:48,466
So it's very much like I know that my
little baby self is feeling a lot of

301
00:22:48,466 --> 00:22:54,316
pressure because I knew that I was coming
into a family with a lot of criticism

302
00:22:54,656 --> 00:23:00,526
and I was already feeling pretty hard on
myself, even though I wasn't born yet.

303
00:23:01,536 --> 00:23:05,496
And I had an amazing emotional
process session, pulling a

304
00:23:05,496 --> 00:23:06,956
lot of that heaviness out.

305
00:23:07,516 --> 00:23:09,596
That to me was the trauma that I was.

306
00:23:11,096 --> 00:23:13,356
that I was healing and moving.

307
00:23:14,816 --> 00:23:20,766
And you can get into some questions
that a lot of people have about the

308
00:23:20,916 --> 00:23:25,706
spirituality aspect of this type of
healing work, this type of Magickal

309
00:23:25,726 --> 00:23:31,616
healing work, which is, did we choose
what we were going to do in this life?

310
00:23:32,566 --> 00:23:36,726
Is there maybe a pre existence where
our spirit or our soul is deciding

311
00:23:36,756 --> 00:23:42,446
what body to inhabit and do a human
existence and experience then?

312
00:23:43,126 --> 00:23:47,296
And then if so, do we choose the
obstacles that we sign up for?

313
00:23:48,156 --> 00:23:53,136
And how much of what we've
experienced is our fault?

314
00:23:54,466 --> 00:23:58,686
Because for a lot of healing work that
I have encountered with people, they

315
00:23:58,686 --> 00:24:00,876
take almost everything as their fault.

316
00:24:02,351 --> 00:24:08,331
And they're deciding at young,
young ages that they got to choose

317
00:24:09,411 --> 00:24:12,051
and they deserve to what they got.

318
00:24:12,291 --> 00:24:17,011
And that's a lot of heaviness to
put on your own shoulders as young,

319
00:24:17,021 --> 00:24:23,171
young child, and then carry that
through to your adult age is I'm going

320
00:24:23,171 --> 00:24:24,901
to place all that on my own self.

321
00:24:26,411 --> 00:24:29,851
So I want to propose this sort of debate.

322
00:24:30,531 --> 00:24:35,641
That if we're going to debate that whether
or not that's chosen or we go through this

323
00:24:35,641 --> 00:24:40,041
life with those obstacles and we chose
those obstacles in a pre existence or not

324
00:24:40,771 --> 00:24:49,871
and set that aside and say Whether it is
or it isn't I can decide to heal and I can

325
00:24:49,881 --> 00:24:55,121
decide to use that as information That if
there is some things that I do actually

326
00:24:55,131 --> 00:25:01,121
have power To change, I'm going to try.

327
00:25:01,401 --> 00:25:04,711
I'm going to try to move that
energy out and move that And

328
00:25:04,711 --> 00:25:05,841
take that as information.

329
00:25:06,941 --> 00:25:10,741
For example I'm going to use examples
of my own healing experience.

330
00:25:11,271 --> 00:25:15,251
For me, when I started doing a lot of
this kind of healing work for myself,

331
00:25:15,331 --> 00:25:20,481
I realized pretty early on that I was
holding a lot of shame in my body.

332
00:25:20,911 --> 00:25:24,381
And if you remember the episode we
talked about the book Power Versus

333
00:25:24,381 --> 00:25:30,141
Force, the energy level of shame
is the lowest on the energy level.

334
00:25:30,736 --> 00:25:33,316
is even on the scale.

335
00:25:34,096 --> 00:25:37,866
So holding energy in the body,
that's going to be a very low vibe.

336
00:25:37,866 --> 00:25:43,546
Shame is going to show up as not
productive at all, but it was showing

337
00:25:43,546 --> 00:25:49,866
up for me as or what it often shows
up for most people is stomach aches.

338
00:25:50,451 --> 00:25:53,951
Not being able to digest my
food very well and always having

339
00:25:53,951 --> 00:25:55,571
issues with what foods I can eat.

340
00:25:56,221 --> 00:25:59,731
And I pretty much spent every single
evening, and it always hit me in

341
00:25:59,731 --> 00:26:03,231
the evenings, because it was like,
after a day of whatever meals that

342
00:26:03,231 --> 00:26:07,671
I ate that day, I would spend almost
every single evening just in pain.

343
00:26:08,866 --> 00:26:16,056
in doubled over pain trying to trying
to figure out what I ate that day that

344
00:26:16,056 --> 00:26:18,516
was causing so much discomfort for me.

345
00:26:19,266 --> 00:26:23,346
And I pretty much just stopped
eating every day after four o'clock.

346
00:26:23,586 --> 00:26:25,056
I would say four o'clock is the cutoff.

347
00:26:25,366 --> 00:26:28,356
If I haven't eaten what I'm going to eat
for the day by four o'clock, that's it

348
00:26:28,456 --> 00:26:31,796
because I don't want to be in pain all
night long and not be able to sleep.

349
00:26:33,266 --> 00:26:36,076
It also shows up on the
body which I found out.

350
00:26:37,881 --> 00:26:43,001
On the face, uh, and I had terrible
skin problems for most of my adulthood.

351
00:26:43,051 --> 00:26:47,361
It's not that I had terrible acne as
an, as a, as a teenager that much, but

352
00:26:47,751 --> 00:26:52,141
but I had a terrible habit of having
breakouts on my face and then picking at

353
00:26:52,141 --> 00:26:54,981
them and like, couldn't leave it alone.

354
00:26:55,031 --> 00:26:59,641
And eventually it was just, I had
to accept that, like, I was just

355
00:26:59,671 --> 00:27:02,561
always going to have bad skin, but.

356
00:27:04,351 --> 00:27:09,971
When doing a lot of emotional processing
and moving the energy of shame out of

357
00:27:09,971 --> 00:27:14,961
my body, one process at a time, each
time I was able to address moments of

358
00:27:14,961 --> 00:27:20,721
trauma in my life that, uh, allowed
that shame to enter my body and to

359
00:27:20,721 --> 00:27:24,781
become a decision that I was not worthy.

360
00:27:24,781 --> 00:27:26,181
I was not good enough.

361
00:27:26,701 --> 00:27:31,111
All of that, those deep rooted belief
systems that were in my body, like,

362
00:27:31,511 --> 00:27:33,141
like programs I had downloaded.

363
00:27:33,766 --> 00:27:38,226
Once I was able to move that out,
I started to feel so much better.

364
00:27:39,056 --> 00:27:43,326
And I mean, this is after years of
seeing doctors dermatologists, uh,

365
00:27:43,326 --> 00:27:48,711
using almost every medical grade
Dermatology creams and cleansers that

366
00:27:48,711 --> 00:27:50,231
I possibly could get my hands on.

367
00:27:50,761 --> 00:27:53,691
Several, several years of trying to
figure out what was going on with my

368
00:27:53,861 --> 00:27:58,511
stomach and, you know, what I could and
couldn't eat and narrowing down my diet,

369
00:27:58,551 --> 00:28:00,441
all of these things that I was doing.

370
00:28:01,051 --> 00:28:08,401
And it was just not enough, not
helping enough for me to heal,

371
00:28:08,411 --> 00:28:09,921
for me to actually feel better.

372
00:28:11,551 --> 00:28:14,581
There is a lot of really cool
information about how different

373
00:28:14,611 --> 00:28:17,271
energies, uh, manifest in the body.

374
00:28:17,846 --> 00:28:19,126
And I want to go back and

375
00:28:19,126 --> 00:28:19,626
reference,

376
00:28:19,706 --> 00:28:22,396
Courtney Pearl: Because we ran
out of time on a previous episode.

377
00:28:22,396 --> 00:28:24,396
We had Amanda McCombs, Mrs.

378
00:28:24,396 --> 00:28:26,386
Daybreak, as one of our guest speakers.

379
00:28:26,456 --> 00:28:30,106
And if you haven't listened to that
episode, I would like you to do that

380
00:28:30,616 --> 00:28:34,726
because we talked a lot about some
of the physical things that she had

381
00:28:34,726 --> 00:28:37,716
been experiencing with shingles.

382
00:28:38,016 --> 00:28:42,516
She had a really bad case of shingles
that went through her sinuses, and

383
00:28:42,516 --> 00:28:44,526
she still always suffers from it.

384
00:28:45,326 --> 00:28:46,116
Kind of dealing with that.

385
00:28:46,566 --> 00:28:51,206
And so When she was on my show, I said,
would you mind if we talked about that?

386
00:28:51,236 --> 00:28:57,966
And do you mind if we look up some of the
emotional energy, uh, connections to that?

387
00:28:58,686 --> 00:29:00,506
And she gave me permission.

388
00:29:00,566 --> 00:29:04,876
So I just want to clarify that I
wouldn't normally talk about a client

389
00:29:04,886 --> 00:29:07,006
or anything that they're going through.

390
00:29:07,056 --> 00:29:10,876
And share that information, but I
did get special permission this time

391
00:29:10,876 --> 00:29:12,526
because she was a guest on the show.

392
00:29:13,766 --> 00:29:17,876
And I, I looked up shingles in a
book that I use for referencing these

393
00:29:17,886 --> 00:29:22,816
things, which is called Feelings Buried
Alive Never Die, and I will put those

394
00:29:22,816 --> 00:29:25,346
resources in my blog on my website.

395
00:29:26,076 --> 00:29:32,686
So it says here shingles can be connected
and associated with fear, things

396
00:29:32,696 --> 00:29:34,126
that won't work out the way you want.

397
00:29:34,991 --> 00:29:36,621
Being overly sensitive.

398
00:29:36,991 --> 00:29:39,871
Ongoing tension concerning a situation.

399
00:29:41,141 --> 00:29:43,211
Hostile energy being manifest.

400
00:29:44,471 --> 00:29:45,591
Lack of inner peace.

401
00:29:46,101 --> 00:29:47,521
And reoccurring problems of unworthiness.

402
00:29:47,521 --> 00:29:55,311
And as I read that list to her, she
was very much resonating with that.

403
00:29:55,541 --> 00:30:01,241
She felt like those were things that
she definitely wants to bring forward

404
00:30:01,241 --> 00:30:05,921
in her healing journey and would
want to work on maybe in whatever

405
00:30:05,921 --> 00:30:07,891
modality she's seeking out for that.

406
00:30:08,011 --> 00:30:11,781
And that doesn't go without
saying, working with a doctor and

407
00:30:11,781 --> 00:30:13,966
a specialist that helps with that.

408
00:30:14,276 --> 00:30:16,376
those symptoms from with that condition.

409
00:30:17,086 --> 00:30:19,896
But knowing and being
aware is the first step.

410
00:30:20,006 --> 00:30:25,046
Knowing what might be coming forward,
what might be connected to that, and

411
00:30:25,046 --> 00:30:31,396
then working through that is a whole
aspect of medicine that we're sort of

412
00:30:31,416 --> 00:30:34,136
missing when we only go to doctors.

413
00:30:35,016 --> 00:30:41,316
Because they only know and specialize
in the things that they were

414
00:30:41,316 --> 00:30:44,736
taught in medical school, like
the science and the biology of it.

415
00:30:45,121 --> 00:30:48,921
the anatomy, symptoms,
treatments, things like that.

416
00:30:49,861 --> 00:30:55,021
Whereas when I have a client come to
me for a Reiki session and I'm able

417
00:30:55,021 --> 00:31:01,111
to help go back to a childhood age or
I'm able to just pull out and do some

418
00:31:01,181 --> 00:31:05,671
drumming over their body, breaking up
that energy and moving it out of the

419
00:31:05,671 --> 00:31:12,751
body, replacing it with some positive
affirmations, This is all an aspect

420
00:31:12,751 --> 00:31:18,561
of healing that gets overlooked and
sometimes dismissed because it's not

421
00:31:18,591 --> 00:31:21,741
conventional and it's not something
we're raised in our culture to believe

422
00:31:21,741 --> 00:31:24,601
in in our western medicine culture.

423
00:31:26,471 --> 00:31:34,941
And so just to close up my to give my last
thoughts on this is you may not be ready

424
00:31:34,941 --> 00:31:36,831
to face everything you've experienced.

425
00:31:36,831 --> 00:31:43,111
If you've been through some very
clear trauma, that you can pinpoint

426
00:31:43,141 --> 00:31:44,791
exactly what that might be.

427
00:31:45,591 --> 00:31:50,611
You may only want to receive
what is missing at first.

428
00:31:51,341 --> 00:31:55,421
You may only be ready to address
what you are ready to address.

429
00:31:56,471 --> 00:32:00,011
So if emotional processing a Reiki
session sounds a little bit scary to

430
00:32:00,011 --> 00:32:05,401
you because you're really not ready to
look deeper into certain things, let

431
00:32:05,401 --> 00:32:11,551
me reassure you that in a session with
me, your body will not bring forward

432
00:32:11,571 --> 00:32:14,201
anything that it is not ready to release.

433
00:32:15,701 --> 00:32:18,061
And you might be thinking, well of
course I want to release it, who

434
00:32:18,061 --> 00:32:19,191
wants to hold that in their body?

435
00:32:19,881 --> 00:32:22,411
And actually, the answer
would surprise you.

436
00:32:22,931 --> 00:32:27,201
Because a lot of times when I'm moving
out something like fear, I do have clients

437
00:32:27,201 --> 00:32:29,591
that have resistance to moving fear out.

438
00:32:30,461 --> 00:32:35,021
Mostly because their game is, I need
to hold on to fear to keep me safe.

439
00:32:35,531 --> 00:32:38,411
Fear is going to protect me.

440
00:32:39,661 --> 00:32:43,821
And anything that your body is not ready
to get rid of, there's usually a reason.

441
00:32:44,911 --> 00:32:47,151
And so sometimes I have
clients that will do sessions.

442
00:32:47,661 --> 00:32:54,481
And they're not ready to really pinpoint
the trauma exactly, but they might be

443
00:32:54,481 --> 00:33:00,851
willing to look at time or events or
feelings or emotions surrounding in the

444
00:33:00,861 --> 00:33:04,711
before and after a certain age or event.

445
00:33:05,701 --> 00:33:10,041
So your body, when muscle testing for
you to bring up what it is you need to

446
00:33:10,201 --> 00:33:14,591
address or feel in a session, it will only
bring up what you're ready to bring up.

447
00:33:15,941 --> 00:33:19,941
And you will not need to rely on your
memories for deep healing because

448
00:33:19,941 --> 00:33:21,681
your body will always remember.

449
00:33:23,181 --> 00:33:30,011
So when you are ready to feel
it, you will be ready to heal it.

450
00:33:31,511 --> 00:33:32,501
Trying to make that rhyme.

451
00:33:33,811 --> 00:33:38,031
Now we could go into a lot more
really cool facts about how things

452
00:33:38,031 --> 00:33:43,101
like yoga, dance movement, meditation
movement, Can really be a great

453
00:33:43,101 --> 00:33:46,701
way to release the trauma that's
held in certain parts of the body.

454
00:33:47,261 --> 00:33:51,811
But I'm going to save that just
for some, uh, more resources

455
00:33:51,851 --> 00:33:53,211
that I'm going to put on my blog.

456
00:33:53,331 --> 00:33:57,041
So if you loved this discussion,
you loved this episode, and

457
00:33:57,041 --> 00:33:58,281
you're like, more please.

458
00:33:59,046 --> 00:34:05,146
Then I would encourage you to
go to my website, prism healing.

459
00:34:05,836 --> 00:34:12,016
com, and on the tabs at the top
you'll see blog, and all of my

460
00:34:12,176 --> 00:34:14,266
website resources will be there.

461
00:34:14,916 --> 00:34:18,336
So it will be shortly after
this episode airs, I will

462
00:34:18,336 --> 00:34:22,516
have this episode's additional
information and resources there.

463
00:34:24,166 --> 00:34:29,356
And then you can always look on my website
under services if there's any of those

464
00:34:29,436 --> 00:34:34,856
emotional processing or Reiki sessions
that you would like to book with me.

465
00:34:36,086 --> 00:34:41,656
And I always, always encourage you to
take a look at my website to see what

466
00:34:41,656 --> 00:34:45,676
the services are, to learn a little
bit more about them, and to reach

467
00:34:46,086 --> 00:34:49,776
out to me if you have any questions
and you're not sure what to do.

468
00:34:50,136 --> 00:34:53,876
Because I will do a 30 minute
free consultation with anyone

469
00:34:53,896 --> 00:34:58,776
who wants to learn more, so
I very highly encourage that.

470
00:34:59,506 --> 00:35:03,066
But we're going to go to our question
from a listener, and I specifically

471
00:35:03,066 --> 00:35:06,786
picked a question from a listener this
week that would kind of coincide with

472
00:35:06,786 --> 00:35:10,346
our topic today, because I feel like
that would be really beneficial if

473
00:35:10,346 --> 00:35:13,206
you're already listening to this topic.

474
00:35:14,416 --> 00:35:18,486
And the question is, I struggle with
handling emotions because my own

475
00:35:18,566 --> 00:35:20,116
parents were emotionally immature.

476
00:35:20,186 --> 00:35:23,626
How do I begin to heal so I can
be better for my own children?

477
00:35:24,556 --> 00:35:30,436
And that is going to lead
us so beautifully from this

478
00:35:30,476 --> 00:35:32,906
topic into next week's topic.

479
00:35:33,526 --> 00:35:37,316
So let me answer that question and
then we'll talk about what's next week.

480
00:35:38,616 --> 00:35:45,706
When you are healing yourself, when
you are working on becoming more

481
00:35:45,726 --> 00:35:54,446
emotionally mature and raising your
emotional intelligence, you are going to

482
00:35:54,446 --> 00:36:00,336
be better at handling interactions with
your parents, you're going to be able

483
00:36:00,336 --> 00:36:07,656
to handle things that normally trigger
you better, and you are already going

484
00:36:07,846 --> 00:36:10,986
to handle situations with your children.

485
00:36:12,486 --> 00:36:16,936
So I always encourage When that feels
overwhelming to think about, oh my

486
00:36:16,936 --> 00:36:21,696
gosh, I have to interact with my
parents who are emotionally mature.

487
00:36:22,206 --> 00:36:26,196
Maybe they are the type of parents where
anytime you bring anything up, they're

488
00:36:26,196 --> 00:36:29,566
like, oh, well, I guess it was just a
terrible mother and they dismiss it.

489
00:36:30,256 --> 00:36:35,566
Or they get very defensive, or they're
a little bit neglectful, they don't

490
00:36:35,576 --> 00:36:39,546
want to listen to your emotions, they
don't like it when you get emotional,

491
00:36:39,576 --> 00:36:42,476
they sort of have always avoided that.

492
00:36:42,856 --> 00:36:47,736
There's a lot of aspects to emotionally
immature parents, but if you know

493
00:36:47,816 --> 00:36:51,946
your parents are emotionally immature,
it can be very triggering for you,

494
00:36:52,346 --> 00:36:57,386
and it can trigger in you what you
emotionally have not addressed.

495
00:36:58,961 --> 00:37:03,451
So, my biggest advice
is to work on yourself.

496
00:37:03,871 --> 00:37:11,391
Work on what it means to be emotionally
mature, meaning that you might you

497
00:37:11,391 --> 00:37:16,721
might be able to sit with uncomfortable
emotions in yourself and your parents

498
00:37:16,721 --> 00:37:22,211
and your children for longer periods
while not taking it personally.

499
00:37:23,051 --> 00:37:24,151
It might look like that.

500
00:37:24,781 --> 00:37:30,941
It might look like just being aware of
when you're triggered, aware of when

501
00:37:30,941 --> 00:37:36,711
you feel annoyed, resentful, frustrated
when you feel like you really just want

502
00:37:36,751 --> 00:37:41,281
to get out of the situation and avoid
it altogether because you might feel

503
00:37:41,281 --> 00:37:45,211
like that with your children if they're
holding, uh, a space that's incredibly

504
00:37:45,211 --> 00:37:47,811
highly emotional, a tantrum, for example.

505
00:37:49,341 --> 00:37:55,981
And so, when we do our own healing work,
there is a ripple effect that sort of

506
00:37:56,001 --> 00:38:03,261
comes out generationally in all directions
from our ancestors who came before us

507
00:38:03,441 --> 00:38:05,031
and our descendants who come after us.

508
00:38:06,451 --> 00:38:10,821
And so, you really are breaking
chains and breaking patterns that

509
00:38:11,081 --> 00:38:13,141
are going to result in a healing.

510
00:38:14,391 --> 00:38:17,891
World healing, an epidemic of healing.

511
00:38:19,131 --> 00:38:24,001
And so I have two books that I would like
to to put out there as recommendation.

512
00:38:24,041 --> 00:38:29,821
I just heard, uh, this author is a
guest on another podcast I listen to.

513
00:38:30,421 --> 00:38:34,581
It's called Adult Children of
Emotionally Immature Parents by Dr.

514
00:38:34,581 --> 00:38:35,171
Lindsay C.

515
00:38:35,171 --> 00:38:35,741
Gibson.

516
00:38:36,811 --> 00:38:40,271
And then I highly recommend
Good Inside by Dr.

517
00:38:40,291 --> 00:38:41,251
Becky Kennedy.

518
00:38:41,716 --> 00:38:46,656
It's a parenting book, but I kind
of feel like it's actually it's like

519
00:38:46,656 --> 00:38:50,256
disguised as a parenting book, and
actually it's a self healing book.

520
00:38:51,806 --> 00:38:56,436
So if you want to follow them
or look them up, that is some

521
00:38:56,436 --> 00:39:01,046
great resources for you if you're
looking at like, where do I begin?

522
00:39:01,076 --> 00:39:02,436
How do I start holding boundaries?

523
00:39:02,486 --> 00:39:05,186
How do I start interacting differently?

524
00:39:05,746 --> 00:39:08,986
And my personal advice,
start working on your own.

525
00:39:09,641 --> 00:39:14,641
Self awareness and your own healing that
brings us to next week's topic, which

526
00:39:14,641 --> 00:39:19,391
is going to be Generational healing one
of my absolutely favorite topics in the

527
00:39:19,391 --> 00:39:21,951
whole world, which is how does general?

528
00:39:22,211 --> 00:39:31,041
generational healing help you and how
does it play a part in your being able

529
00:39:31,041 --> 00:39:36,356
to be Magickal person that you are in
your life because The more that you

530
00:39:36,356 --> 00:39:42,626
break those patterns, the more you
are able to wield the Magick that is

531
00:39:42,626 --> 00:39:44,636
already you, that you hold inside you.

532
00:39:45,416 --> 00:39:47,476
It is a really important part of healing.

533
00:39:47,696 --> 00:39:53,026
It is something that is a large
part of the work that I do when I

534
00:39:53,026 --> 00:39:54,576
do healing sessions with people.

535
00:39:55,216 --> 00:39:59,621
So I cannot talk about healing
in general without talking about

536
00:39:59,621 --> 00:40:03,626
generational healing, or as some
people call it, ancestral healing.

537
00:40:05,336 --> 00:40:07,726
So next week's episode,
generational healing.

538
00:40:08,006 --> 00:40:10,346
What didn't start with you?

539
00:40:11,606 --> 00:40:12,466
We're going to figure that out.

540
00:40:13,456 --> 00:40:14,536
And I would like to challenge you.

541
00:40:15,541 --> 00:40:20,041
To use Magick in your everyday
life, strengthen your relationships,

542
00:40:20,341 --> 00:40:23,111
heal, prosper, and thrive.

543
00:40:23,381 --> 00:40:28,221
Become aligned with that future version
of yourself that you imagine that

544
00:40:28,221 --> 00:40:29,931
you will be that you are becoming.

545
00:40:31,481 --> 00:40:35,026
All right, if you want more information
on these and other topics, subjects,

546
00:40:35,026 --> 00:40:43,916

Instagram, at prism underscore healing.

of live sessions of card readings.

00:40:49,576 --> 00:40:52,416
I provide more information
than what's here.

549
00:40:52,756 --> 00:40:56,426
I've done a lot of live videos

550
00:40:56,456 --> 00:40:58,426
