Mind Body Musings Podcast: Feminine Embodiment | Surrender & Trust | Relationships | Limiting Beliefs | Authenticity

Episode 326: Ready to burn the dating checklist? Madelyn's monthly membership program, Sisu Society, is full of content and interaction beyond the podcast episodes. Each month there's typically two formal calls, and periodic spontaneous Facebook Live videos from Madelyn. This special episode of the podcast is one of those sessions. Inspired by the recent episode featuring Eva Clay, Madelyn candidly discusses some of her dating history and experiences, how it is we make the wrong kinds of "lists" when seeking dating partners, and how to burn the dating checklist and teach ourselves to be open to loving anyone. Show Notes: Sisu Society features group coaching, interacting with members, and typically two calls - sometimes embodiment practices, teachings, sharing circles, guests. There are also spontaneous Facebook Live videos with candid and intimate musings directly from Madelyn - this episode is one of those videos. This episode is a follow-up/sister of the recent Eva Clay episode: maddymoon.com/eva-clay/ Remember to be a kingmaker - don't look for your perfect king. You're going to make him your perfect king (and by making him the king, you become the queen). In the last two weeks Madelyn has been on her first break from Instagram since she joined the site. When Madelyn was dating in apps, her standards and expectations were in the wrong domains. If you base you relationships in openness, honesty, and momentous living, every relationship is a gift. You can still honor and respect the body's urgency while having an open permission people for people to exist as they are.

Episode 325: Amanda Katherine Loy (she/her) — also known on Instagram as that Bisexual Body Positive BRCA babe — is on a mission to help you face your fears, speak your truth and get you one step closer to living your f*ck yes life. She this does in multiple facets, through her work as an actor, a body confidence & mindset coach, podcast host, writer and speaker. Amanda Katherine Loy has a long history of operating solely from a place of shoulds — unconsciously dimming her light and keeping herself small in hopes that it would keep her safe, seen and accepted through a myriad of ways: eating disorder cycles, over exercising, work-aholism, toxic relationships and beyond. Through her own unique journey to liberation, she’s become wildly passionate about arming her fuck yes community with the tools to help them step into their fullest and most authentic selves, so that they can live every day feeling unapologetic AF in their own skin and truly come home to themselves. In 2018, she launched her top charting weekly podcast, Live Your F*ck Yes Life — the space to be for conscious conversations and candid shares around shit nobody really f*cking talks about. And in 2019, she courageously shared her journey of navigating a preventative double mastectomy at the age of 27 in her self published book, I Chopped Off My Tits. She spends most of her time sharing her musings every week over on Instagram and her podcast, so come on over and join in on the magic that is all things living YOUR fuck yes life. Show Notes: Sisu will be changing platforms in the near future - announcement soon in the newsletter. Amanda's book, I Chopped Off My Tits, details her first experience with being bullied and how these experiences affect us into adulthood. - amandakatherineloy.com/book Amanda was married for eight years before they opened their relationship to polyamory. She came out as bisexual two years ago on her podcast. Polygamy - religious practice, usually one man with multiple wives. Polyamory - ethical nonmonagamy, a perspective on how we love. Central to this is the idea that you can choose your best relationship, whether that's polyamory or monogamy. If you're a couple exploring polyamory, it's very important to communicate and treat the "third" with a lot of care. Many people use polyamory as a "loophole" to manipulate and effectively cheat. Polyamory can be like a flashlight on your deepest wounds and insecurities. If you're doing feminine/masculine work, it doesn't necessarily mean your partner needs to be working in that domain. For those thinking of love and relationships in any capacity, ask yourself, "Am I showing up consciously?"

Episode 324: In this episode Madelyn and sexologist Eva Clay discuss modern dating while eternally conscious of the pressures of the biological clock, connection, enchantresses, and keeping your embodiment practice in the fore while seeking a life mate. Eva Clay is an acclaimed sexologist and psychotherapist whose mission is to illuminate the ménage-a-trois of soul, sex and science. She's helped thousands of people unlock their innate potential for pleasure, and as a former professor of neuroscience, she bodaciously reminds us that smart is sexy. Her work is an elegant marriage of the profound and the playful, and has been a practitioner of sexual tantra for over a decade. She’s been featured as an expert in major media appearances, is a regular guest on Channel Q and has appeared as a keynote speaker at the Wanderlust yoga festivals. Show Notes: How to be present on dates when the biological clock is ticking? Women learning about their physiology is incredibly empowering and puts them in mastery. "Ditch the Frame" - Replace, "Could he be the one?" with sensual questions of, "What is the tenor or tone of our exchange? How much pleasure do I experience when sharing space with him?" The "frame" creates contraction and anxiety in the body and dims your radiant light. Men do not want to be interviewed as the "baby daddy." Think of a cervix as you embody your openness and desire in your dress, body language, and communication. When setting up dating profiles, rather than the hard edges of, "I don't want this," or, "I don't like this," instead effusively express that which you love, and he will be magnetized to you. Discernment is okay too - evaluate integrity, frequency and vibration, how you feel when you're around them. Study the great enchantresses like Cleopatra to better practice your energetic gifts in the domain of dating.

Episode 323: All of us are both masculine and feminine beings. Most of us are primarily masculine or primarily feminine, but it's important that we consciously work on balancing the two in ways that work for us. The feminine oracle is a component of a primarily feminine consciousness and body that is aware of and responds to our environments - our intuition. In this episode, originally aired on the High Vibin' It podcast, Madelyn discusses the feminine oracle, our inner compass, the Heroine's Journey, and so much more. Show Notes: The masculine is the necessary "containers" and structure we create psychologically. The feminine is what's in the "containers." Sometimes we have to consciously ground the feminine or bring softness to the masculine. Expanding your feminine awareness includes looking at when you're telling yourself the same story to "prove it's right." A lot of our responses that we assume are mental/emotional actually do exist in the nervous system. It's important to include the body in spiritual work. A primarily feminine body has a "compass" - the oracle. This is the hyper-aware (but often not consciously expressed) part of us that responds to discord in our environments. This response is all-encompassing, even physical. In the Heroine's Journey there's a rejection of the feminine that has to happen, and some don't come out of it. A practice to ground: place your hand on your chest when you're speaking and feel the vibration of your words - connects the "two nervous systems."

Episode 322:  Empath and narcissist - such profoundly relevant terms in today's world. Regardless of personal beliefs on the existence of empaths (those with a paranormal ability to apprehend the mental and emotional state of another person) it can be dangerous to one's own emotional state to assume feelings experienced are the result of being an empath, versus one's own emotions. In this episode Madelyn explores the overlap of empath and narcissist, with a deep case study of The Bachelorette for good measure. Show Notes: Madelyn's life has been a bit transient since her last personal update. The uncertainty of her ungrounded situated also resulted in some physical manifestations/health consequences. Reviewing the podcast on various platforms is the best way to support and get the podcast higher on the listings: iTunes: https://maddymoon.com/itunes Spotify: https://maddymoon.com/spotify YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/MaddyMoonTV Empath definition: "A person with the paranormal ability to apprehend the mental or emotional state of another person." Ascribing your deep feelings to a self-identity as an empath may be an exhibition of poor mental self-care. Externalizing the root cause of emotions may be deflecting real self-actualization that has to happen. Madelyn walks through an extensive breakdown of The Bachelorette and the expression of these interactions, and projecting your own feelings onto others and label it being an "empath." True empathy is not about making others' experiences about you being able to feel what they feel. Madelyn has experience with someone she was raised with who considered themselves to be an empath. Red flags are using emotions to control others: "You made me feel this way." "You don't really care about me."

Episode 321: A teacher, mystic and poet, Richard Rudd attended Edinburgh University where he gained a Master’s degree in literature and metaphysics. A born explorer, he has studied with great teachers in the East, traveled through the Himalayas, the Pacific, the Americas and the Arctic. He worked in the film industry in Australia, trained as a teacher of Chi Kung and meditation in Thailand, and sailed across the Atlantic Ocean on a small yacht. Throughout his adventures Richard Rudd has explored his love of writing and in 2006 he won the FISH international poetry award in Ireland. Richard's mystical journey began early in life as he experienced strange energies rushing throughout his body. This catalysed his spiritual search. All his studies became synthesised in 2002 when he began to write and receive the Gene Keys - a vast synthesis exploring the miraculous possibilities inherent in human DNA. It took 7 years to write the book and understand its teachings and applications. Today Richard continues to study and teach the profound lessons contained in the Gene Keys. In this episode Madelyn and Richard discuss relationship polarity, the Gene Keys, and the new Venus Sequence retreat event.

It requires courage, as it requires you to consider your own patterns of wounding. The ideas that there's a perfect kind of relationship/person is a myth. The Law of Unseen Grace: We always get the exact relationship that we need, exactly the one that's in front of us. Everything about our evolution happens in sequences. You attract people to you through frequencies. Some of the loneliest people on the planet are in relationships. Over time and relationships, we're essentially learning to parent ourselves, learning to take care of our own hearts. Every relationship has its teaching for us. Romantic-centric relationships thrive on separation and distance, and the chemistry often doesn't work with proximity. The Divine Venus Deep Dive "retreat" will have a weekly theme. Around two hours a week, perhaps 20 minutes at a time. It's over such an extended period of time because they are many small steps that take time to process. This may be the last time Richard personally runs the Venus Sequence himself, as there's other subjects he has to cover as well.

Episode 320: Dominick Quartuccio is the co-host of The Great Man Within Podcast, a show for high-performing men exploring the realms of Purpose, Masculinity and Sex. He leads two online men's communities, The Great Man Mastermind & The Great Man Within Facebook Group (links below the show notes). He is also an international speaker and two-time author of Design Your Future and On Purpose Leadership. His mission is to lead 10 million men to live their potential over the next 10 years. Dominick is a favorite repeat guest on Mind Body Musings, and it's easy to see why when you hear him speak. He advocates a thoughtful masculinity and, like Madelyn, is dedicating to helping people achieve masculine/feminine balance, both as an individual and in interactions with partners. In this special Q&A episode Madelyn and Dominick answer your submitted questions, particularly focused on ways to evaluate and handle when masculine/feminine may be out of sync with expectations in a relationship. Show Notes: On Sunday, October 18, 2020 at 5:00 PM Pacific, Dominick and Madelyn will be doing a group practice in Sisu Society. Dominick's books: Design Your Future - https://amzn.to/33VQNRy On Purpose Leadership - https://amzn.to/2Fv4RYU Previous Mind Body Musings appearances: Five Ways That Men Lose Credibility with Women - maddymoon.com/ways-men-lose-credibility/ Making Your Love Darker and Your Goals Lighter - maddymoon.com/dominick-quartuccio/ If you're in a relationship with a feminine man and you want him to be more masculine, evaluate why you're in that relationship. There can be a sense of shame around being "too nice" or being emasculated. You can channel your enthusiasm to evoke masculine leadership in your partner. This allows you both to "lead." Relationships can evolve, and the masculine/feminine dynamic and balance can shift over time. When you make statements like, "Be a man," you have basically told him that he's not one, and when he's not one, he feels emasculated and shameful. An analogue to, "Be a man," might be a man telling a woman she's crazy or too sensitive.

Episode 319: All too often we frame our work with masculine/feminine in the context of conflict, suggesting that one has to "win" to achieve peace. The reality is that it's absolutely necessary to strengthen your inner masculine, in order to support your feminine and move forward as a whole integrated being. In this episode, Madelyn discusses ways to strengthen your inner masculine, why it's important, the symbiotic roles masculine and feminine play in our growth and challenges, and some of the root causes of conflict between them. This originally aired as an episode of Georgie Collinson's Anxiety Reset Podcast. Show Notes: The feminine/masculine discussion that's happening on social media is often missing the mark. It's not about glorifying softness, surrender, going with the flow. It's about embracing wild chaotic energies. Both men and women have both been raised in this wounded masculine society, and it's damaged men and women (and their respective feminine/masculine) differently. David Deida is a strong foundation of Madelyn's masculine/feminine work: The Way of the Superior Man - https://amzn.to/2SASai9 Blue Truth - https://amzn.to/36Baujn Dear Lover - https://amzn.to/3jF9H4r Wild Nights - https://amzn.to/2GNYHmI The masculine is the part that doesn't and hasn't changed. It's the riverbed that the river of the feminine flows through. The masculine drive for peace wants to be free of burden. The feminine drive for peace is self-acceptance. It's crucial to put our masculine to the forefront even when working with the feminine: "Warriors with a strong spine and a soft heart." The Heroine's Journey by Maureen Murdock - https://amzn.to/3d5FokZ Women's arc or journey includes shoving away the feminine, "rejecting their mother." Therefore she gravitates to the father, and so the father determines a lot of how she evaluates her success as she gets older.

Episode 318: Through the endless striving for a balanced and healthy physical and spiritual life, the greatest challenge for women to identify, embrace, and work with their feminine yearning to be filled, recognizing the divine calling of that yearning, while acknowledging and honoring the more prosaic day-to-day "neediness" without belittling ourselves for it. Everything exists on a spectrum, and physical or lower-vibration anxious feminine longing is simply a different part of a continuum that includes and is encompassed by divine, archetypal feminine longing. In this episode Madelyn details a recent intense plant medicine experience that brought her in touch with the full spectrum of that yearning, its resolution, and recovery in its aftermath. Show Notes: Feminine longing is the deepest state that the feminine knows - the state of wanting. There is a difference between the actions of flow (practical, logistical flexibility) and the embodiment of flow (true psychic acuity). Book: The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk, MD - https://amzn.to/2FCb98Q Tuning into the nervous systems of those around you can help open you to the impact you have on others. "It's not your coach's job to please you; it's their job to serve you." This means that sometimes their job may be to convey something to you that doesn't "land" or resonate. Madelyn had a threshold plant medicine experience recently that brought her further into her feminine than she's ever been. The experience moved through feral, animal, even feminine with a visit from the Magdalena archetype. There was an intense comedown the next day - she felt she had not properly prepared her body. Even the female body is the physical embodiment of a drive to be filled. Feminine longing can sometimes be dark, because you miss people, connection, comfort. Filling your yearning is your responsibility, your dharma. Madelyn recently led a practice to work with this longing. The intent is not to circumvent the longing, but move through it and into a divine sphere with it - divine longing.

Episode 317: A big life change is the perfect time for a road trip, either solo or with the right companion. Even if spend a lot of non-directed time and aren't focused on the destination, the act of the trip itself is a birthing journey into the next phase of your life. In this episode Madelyn reviews the spiritual, psychological, and logistical details of her trip, reviews how to road trip effectively, and following the universe's invitation to find yourself in the unknown. Show Notes: Madelyn ended her recent relationship and knew that it was time to head to Los Angeles. Episode 318 covers working through the actual decision of the move. maddymoon.com/paralyzed-by-decision/ If your body continually questions, "Can I make this work?" it's a good cue that it isn't naturally working. "Staying past that point was dismissing my body's 'no.'" Always solicit and listen to feedback from your support network - remember that you aren't "crazy" when you have a dozen different perspectives from a dozen different people.

Episode 316: From coronavirus to politics and civil unrest and the fight for social justice, this year is proving to be a challenging time of change and transition for everyone, Madelyn included. If you find yourself paralyzed by decision in trying to determine the path you're meant to be on, it's important to be aware of what your body is telling you. In this episode Madelyn uses the closure of her relationship as a context to explore these choices, how to avoid being paralyzed by decision, and how each big choice is really a decision on what you're willing to sacrifice. Show Notes: Madelyn has left her recent partnership. One of biggest fears people have when faced with important decisions is, "Will I regret this?" Remember a past difficult decision, and consider whether you regret the decision you've made. Her living situation had forced her to surrender autonomy. Relationship was two Omegas together, two emotional beings. Identifying when we're given trials we're meant to walk through, versus trials where we're meant to pivot. The decision point was around surrendering much of what Maddy wanted, versus honoring the relationship and moving on to what's next. When considering the idea of staying, she could feel her body contract, and she knew it wasn't right to surrender to that. The experience has refined Madelyn's clarity on what she wants out of a relationship.

"Humanity has built itself on the higher truths, without realizing." "To really access deep veins of truth, you cannot rush. You've got to be loving. You've got to be gentle. You've got to romance wisdom. A Gene Key represents an encyclopedia of an aspect of consciousness, encoded in all things. "Each Gene Key gives us the opportunity to rephrase the language of a life." As long as you've found yourself with someone who is essentially kind at their core, allow yourself to "dig your well" deeply with that person. "Two people coming together is an alchemical cauldron." "Someone who provokes you is a really wonderful gift." "The divine isn't cruel. The divine wants you to see the fruits of your labor." Many spiritually minded people operate with the assumption/wish that this is their "last life," but often that's more reflective of the fact that they're not particularly enjoying this life. Philosophically one's "last life" would be incredibly ecstatic and joyful, so the challenge is to see the opportunity and identify what's left to be done. "There's a perfection in every moment." Richard believes that the next epoch of humanity will not be based in suffering, but bliss. It's important to do the work to understand suffering (shadow). Richard believes we may retain memory between births in the next phase of our evolution. Béla Hamvas: "Drink, and the wine will take care of the rest." Meaning to drink of life - or can be taken literally. The sun takes six days to go through a Gene Key, through all 64.

Episode 314: Emotional and psychological abuse from our past can manifest in insidious ways throughout our lives, frequently in the form of consciously or unconsciously perpetuating that psychological abuse in our current relationships. In this episodes Madelyn explores how trauma from her upbringing has impacted how she approaches relationships today, whether her own, or through her relationship work that she practices with others. Show Notes: Relationships are Madelyn's "playground." It's important to define relationships through communication. It is not "needy" to have a desire for this identification. A lot of men have lost touch with the communication and check-in type of leadership. You can leverage the feminine to guide into conversations about relationship state or definition. Lead not with the complaint, but with the desire. One of the most dangerous places we get ourselves into is when we say we're okay with something, but then more passively punishing our partners for it. This punishment, such as withholding love, is actually abusive. In October Madelyn's parents had an argument resulting in a quick divorce. Madelyn is still working on how to appropriately share her story about her relationship and experiences with her parents. Madelyn's sense of emotions and love was very distorted growing up. These interactions caused Madelyn's interest in and dedication to relationships. Book: Attached by Amir Levine - https://amzn.to/3hYEBUg Madelyn's attachment style tends to adjust itself depending on the attachment style of her partner. The living situation with the Airstream was mirroring the lack of agency and control from her childhood. Recently Madelyn and her partner have taken steps to restore her sense of sovereignty. You do not need anything outside of you to have sovereignty. Inner Child work is about actually going into your Inner Child trauma, letting it arise, and being there for it.

Episode 313: It can be difficult to navigate the delicate nuance of balancing conscious masculine energy with thoughtfulness and consideration for your partner's (and your own) feminine energy. Men lose credibility with women often through not be present to the needs of their partners. Join Madelyn as she discusses the ways men lose credibility with the women in their lives, as a guest on Dominick Quartuccio's & Bryan Stacy's The Great Man Within Podcast. Show Notes: The Great Man Within Podcast can be found here: https://www.doinnerwork.com/podcast Bryan & Dominick focus on spiritualizing healthy divine masculinity in proper balance with the feminine. This episode about things men can do to make women feel safe was in their top five of all podcast episodes. Dominic was on the podcast, Episode 283: Making Your Love Darker and Your Goals Lighter - maddymoon.com/dominick-quartuccio A free companion PDF to this episode is available - maddymoon.com/freegift The five ways men lose credibility: Hesitation, a man who wants to lead and is a little bit afraid. If her belief is that she can't trust the masculine, to prove her wrong, do it with fervor. Don't ignore her concerns - listen and hear. Lead strongly and with conviction. Lack of integrity on what you can and cannot handle. Make the space for yourself and your needs, so that you can fulfill those needs and be present when you're with your partner. Not following through. If you have wounds about someone not being there when you needed it are so easily reopened by not being available when you are needed, but conversely can also be healed by simply being present. Respect both your time and the time of your partner. Failing to go unconscious in transitions. The moment your bodies are no longer connected after sex, can your keep your spiritual connection? Defending yourself rather than listening to her. The feminine has been shushed, poked, prodded, limited, beaten, sold, raped, separated, mutilated, and silenced since the beginning of humankind. When you listen to her and start to change the paradigm of how these interactions go, you are healing the feminine." When you partner is presenting you with a complaint, search for where they are right.

Episode 312: George Lizos is a spiritual teacher, intuitive, author of Be the Guru and the #1 bestselling Lightworkers Gotta Work, co-creator of Elemental Healing™ and host of The Lit Up Lightworker podcast. He helps lightworkers to find their life purpose and work their light in real, palpable ways that create positive change in the world.   Show Notes: Watch this episode on YouTube!  https://www.youtube.com/maddymoontv It can be difficult to avoid feelings of persecution in environments like the current pandemic. Ask, “What does my inner child need? What am I responsible for to get out of this situation and get my autonomy back?” George wears a crown as a touchpoint to step into his feminine energy.  His default is acting from masculine energy, always pushing forward. The crowns can be a way of signaling and setting intention. His book Lightworkers Gotta Work - https://georgelizos.com/lightwork Purpose is to help lightworkers to balance their masculine and feminine energies. George was raised in Cyprus a very religious Christian environment. He struggled with the big questions of life from a young age, convinced something was wrong with him, and tried to gain acceptance by trying to match himself to people’s expectations. Homosexuality was still taboo when he realized he was gay at age 13. He responded by trying to “become” straight, hyper-aware of his behaviors. He contemplated suicide, including writing a note to his parents.   As soon as he made the decision to do so and “let go,” the solution became clear: Learn to love yourself exactly as you are.   "Something magical happens when you declare to the universe that you want to change: the universe comes in to support you." Through spirituality George learned self-love, eventually leading to writing his first book. This led to a busy, pushed, masculine lifestyle that was causing mental and physical distress. He did a past-life regression and discovered he had been a prostitute that was murdered by a client, causing him to suppress his feminine energy in future lives. Masculine and feminine energies are two sides of the same coin, so focusing completely on one abuses/ignores the other. Sex, Gender, Sexuality, and Energy Sex is biological; gender is social; sexuality is biological; energy flow within all these domains. Women tend have more feminine energy than men, and men tend to have more masculine energy than women, but it’s really aspects of the same thing that runs through all of us. Same-sex relationships can be challenging with this energy balance. Connecting with nature can help us rebalance our own energy that’s confounded by social/psychological issues. Nature emulates masculine and feminine without social labels through the energy of the seasons. “Bathing under cosmic light” to balance masculine/feminine.  Light from sun, moon, and stars is a reflection of our own inner light. The moon’s essence itself feminine energy; sun is masculine.  Moonlight is the balance of the two - the combination of the surface of the moon and light from the sun. Coaching and creating coaches should be difficult and focused on improving the world, not creating a sales downstream. Many coaches don’t have a clear sense on their “why,” their purpose. George reviews his life purpose, which he has written and posted so he sees it every single day (the who, what, how, why). The universe will support you, but there is work for us to put in, and it all starts with understanding our purpose.

Episode 311: The global pandemic has resulted in many of us having to share our spaces with difficult triggering family members who may be activating the “old you” within us - aspects of ourselves or collections of behaviors that we associate with past trauma, or that we feel are holding us back. In this solo episode Madelyn explores the deep spiritual and psychological implications surrounding this dynamic, and offers tools and perspectives to reframe these interactions in the context of acceptance (both of ourselves and others) and how to use them to create and grow.   Show Notes:   Gene Keys by Richard Rudd - https://amzn.to/2VRzs7R World is embodying Gene Key 55 at this moment. All Gene Keys have "Shadow" (dark side) and "City" (light side/gift). Gene Key 55: Victimhood/Freedom This Gene Key also relates to the current White fragility The idea that anytime you are in the shadow, you are playing the role of victimhood is not always accurate. How to keep a high vibe with a low-vibe family? How to cope with a close relative who treats you like the "old version"? There is no old version of the self - false duality. There are aspects of ourselves that we shift between, and sometimes they will be ones that were more prevalent in the past. “We go into victimhood to prove that we're existing." We can acknowledge our traumas and experiences without them becoming self-defining. Sovereignty, agency, and self-determination is important - i.e. having your own place, domain. The benefits are exponential - the space creates more time to create, which creates more opportunity to pay for the space. Start with the question, "How is this affecting me?" We all have people in our lives that will reveal old versions of ourselves. Most important: You cannot control these triggering people and how they view you. You can only control your reaction. Disconnect from needing validation from those people. Being more aware and curious about what your "old you" is asking for or needing in those moments, and seek to provide it. "You do not have to hold everyone who is biological family as energetic family."   COACHING: receive personalized, 1:1 coaching from Maddy Moon to create your own feminine and masculine embodiment.

Episode 309: Jedaya Barboza is a Tantric Shemite ROSE WOMB PRIESTESS OF THE DIVINE FEMININE. She empowers women to reclaim their birthrights of divinity, love, pleasure, harmony, sensuality, magnetism, and sovereignty through the ancient codes of the Magdalen Rose Womb Consciousness. Jedaya provides 1:1 mentorship, online and live retreats + facilitate workshops, trainings and courses. Show Notes: Madelyn will be posting videos of interviews to YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/maddymoontv Struggled with sharing YouTube channel because of old videos, asked her teacher if she should take them down. It's okay to not always resonate with your past selves, don't suppress or repress parts of yourself. It's Pussy Awareness Week! Connecting with Divine Feminine Energy is very potent during these times. Jedaya grew up with a very empowered woman, but she was also very religious. Felt Christinity was a cover for her deep inner witch embodiment, like a veil. Sex magick is largely being in the energy, not just penetration or actual literal sex. Everyone comes into the world through the energy of sexuality. No outside force or entity has the power to depress me, suppress me, oppress me. Jedaya works to help people transmute their stories and their trauma into empowerment. Sessions with Jedaya are about feeling seen, being heard, connecting with our true origins of self. When you suppress the feminine energy, you suppress life. Magdalene is an energy that any feminine or masculine soul can embody. There's been a "war on the womb" for centuries. More and more women are waking up and honoring their own states, being priestesses. Jedaya's path brought her to so many places in the world with so much beauty, and also so much abuse. Being a priestess is sacred responsibility. You have to meet that name by respecting it.

Episode 309: In many ways the Internet has democratized the spread of ideas and given everyone a platform and a voice. Inevitably there will be times when we won't agree with these voices and opinions, and when that disagreement is shared publicly by others, "cancel culture" can easily develop, where large groups of people collectively pull support, usually centered around a controversial statement, pattern of behavior, or things in the past. In this episode Madelyn explores the distinction between standing up for our values, and the Ego-driven need for separation.   Show Notes:   Spotify and here on the website are the most reliable places to get the newest episodes of the Mind Body Musings Podcast - iTunes not always as reliable. Free will, trauma, judgement, greed, natural shortcomings interfere with our creative drive to create "heaven on Earth." Cancel culture: something happens that causes one to completely shut out a public figure they once respected. Cancel culture can be a way we skip over the hard work of compassion. Madelyn frequently gets contacted by followers communicating expectations that she has more of a social responsibility to use her platform in certain ways to spread awareness/calls to action. When you're in the public eye, when you're wrong, it's publicly wrong. Participation in cancel culture may be rooted not in altruism or enlightenment, but Ego, which thrives on separation. What is one moment in your life that learned something that you didn't know before that made you realize you needed to change your ways? What if that moment of yours was public? Evaluating whether your convictions are really coming from yourself, or absorbed via someone else's opinion in a comment. None of these ideas are intended to dismiss anyone's personal feelings, but an ask for broader awareness and gentleness. Ask permission before engaging in a dialogue, even with friends - when people say yes to something, they are no longer on the defense. Richard Rudd - The Gene Keys - https://amzn.to/2VFUAy3 In every Gene Key there is a light and a dark. Gene Key 30: Light is humility; darkness is arrogance. In the Bible Judas is known as the betrayer. What if that was his role and was so devoted to God that he was willing to embrace the role?   COACHING: receive personalized, 1:1 coaching from Maddy Moon to create your own feminine and masculine embodiment.

Episode 308: It can be extremely challenging to let go of control (in a healthy way) and the need for everything to be according to a strict plan. It's even more challenging to let the future unfold in these uncertain and turbulent times. The feminine/masculine spheres of control and surrender are not as simple as "feminine yielding" and "masculine control" - there is feminine control and masculine control, just as there is masculine yielding and feminine yielding. Show Notes: As an introvert, is finding it healthier to be in nature vs. in Brooklyn. It took trust to be led into a new living situation without a plan. If you struggle with being led, this is an invitation to notice how often you feel your heartspace tighten around a plan. What if you viewed your life as it time didn't exist? Let go of the idea of anything being final and live on a moment-to-moment basis. "When we start making promises about the future, we severely tighten the corset on life." What could be around the corner could be better. The masculine within you is the part that says, "I trust myself so deeply to get myself out of any mess, so I can say yes without diving deeper." Disempowered feminine: "I can't make plans. Plans are too hard for me. Can you make the plans for me?" or "I have to make all the plans. I can't trust anyone to do it." It's important to be both spiritual and relatable - balance of masculine-grounded/feminine-ethereal.

Episode 307: Mary Magdalene, one of the most important individuals in Christianity, is also one of the most misunderstood. Her powerful femininity and significance in Jesus's stories and teachings have been undermined for over a thousand years. Join Madelyn as she explores the teachings of Mary Magdalene, the Apostle to the Apostles, not the prostitute, in the context of today's feminist reawakening and her own Christian upbringing. Show notes:  Madelyn was named after Mary Magdalene. She had an oppressive/repressive patriarchal upbringing experience. Moving From Religion to Spirituality episode for a look at upbringing - https://maddymoon.com/religion-spirituality/ The Sex Episode - discussing the confluence of her upbringing and her sexuality - https://maddymoon.com/sex/ In 2015 denounced "Christian" title. Too much of Christianity didn't feel right. Traveled to Israel, experience spoke to her. Church should be a celebration, not a punishment. Recommended Reading: Mary Magdalene Revealed by Megan Watterson - https://amzn.to/2zR4gOn Gospel of Mary of Magdala by Karen King - https://amzn.to/2AvvObO The Meaning of Mary Magdalene by Cynthia Bourgeault - https://amzn.to/3gA2DoR The Magdalen Manuscript - Tom Kenyon - https://amzn.to/2Aufvfn Six key areas for context: Mary was not a prostitute Book of Mary omitted from Bible Six pages missing, four pages in the middle missing Seven powers she highlights - egoic parts of human nature We are inherently good. Jesus was both fully divine and fully human Not a prostitute - declaration that she was came from Pope Gregory to undermine her teaching, and undermined women's capacity to be leaders. In 1969 the Catholic Church apologized for the fabrication. The path that Mary carves for us is that every single human being has the voice of the angels, and the voice of God, the voice of the Divine within themselves. The books omitted from the Bible focus on a personal connection with God not requiring an intermediary. It's our journey to believe in our truths. It's not our job to force other people to believe in these truths. Allow others to disagree with you. Seven powers that must be attained to ascend: darkness, craving, ignorance, longing for death, compulsion of range, enslavement to physical body, and the false peace of the flesh. These powers are not meant to be destroyed or obliterated. The path of love is that we're devoted to having this ascension within ourselves, which is actually a descent into the heart. What made Jesus who he was, was the fact that he we fully human and fully divine. Jesus honored his sex as a potent life force. Peter doubts Mary, that she was given teachings they were not.

Episode 307: Mary Magdalene, one of the most important individuals in Christianity, is also one of the most misunderstood. Her powerful femininity and significance in Jesus's stories and teachings have been undermined for over a thousand years. Join Madelyn as she explores the teachings of Mary Magdalene, the Apostle to the Apostles, not the prostitute, in the context of today's feminist reawakening and her own Christian upbringing. Show notes:  Madelyn was named after Mary Magdalene. She had an oppressive/repressive patriarchal upbringing experience. Moving From Religion to Spirituality episode for a look at upbringing - maddymoon.com/religion-spirituality/ The Sex Episode - discussing the confluence of her upbringing and her sexuality - maddymoon.com/sex/ In 2015 denounced "Christian" title. Too much of Christianity didn't feel right. Traveled to Israel, experience spoke to her. Church should be a celebration, not a punishment. Recommended Reading: Mary Magdalene Revealed by Megan Watterson - https://amzn.to/2zR4gOn Gospel of Mary of Magdala by Karen King - https://amzn.to/2AvvObO The Meaning of Mary Magdalene by Cynthia Bourgeault - https://amzn.to/3gA2DoR The Magdalen Manuscript by Tom Kenyon - https://amzn.to/2Aufvfn Six key areas for context: Mary was not a prostitute Book of Mary omitted from Bible Six pages missing, four pages in the middle missing Seven powers she highlights - egoic parts of human nature We are inherently good. Jesus was both fully divine and fully human Not a prostitute - declaration that she was came from Pope Gregory to undermine her teaching, and undermined women's capacity to be leaders. In 1969 the Catholic Church apologized for the fabrication. The path that Mary carves for us is that every single human being has the voice of the angels, and the voice of God, the voice of the Divine within themselves. The books omitted from the Bible focus on a personal connection with God not requiring an intermediary. It's our journey to believe in our truths. It's not our job to force other people to believe in these truths. Allow others to disagree with you. Seven powers that must be attained to ascend: darkness, craving, ignorance, longing for death, compulsion of range, enslavement to physical body, and the false peace of the flesh. These powers are not meant to be destroyed or obliterated. The path of love is that we're devoted to having this ascension within ourselves, which is actually a descent into the heart. What made Jesus who he was, was the fact that he we fully human and fully divine. Jesus honored his sex as a potent life force. Peter doubts Mary, that she was given teachings they were not.

Episode 306: Relationships are complicated even when the partners are open and honest with each other - let alone if there is emotional abuse, manipulation, and secrets - like finding out your boyfriend had a wife and three kids. This episode is an intimate and revealing conversation Madelyn had on Julie Day's podcast, I Woke Up Like This. Together they explore Madelyn's experience of discovering a former boyfriend had a wife and kids - while they were dating. Come for the dramatic story - leave with the insights on love, trust, communication, and the transformative power of trauma.

Was completely in masculine side, but disembodied, dissociated from feelings. Everything was a "checklist." Maddy and this person met on a dating app. Relationship was turbulent from the start. Coping with manipulative gaslighting behaviors with self-doubt and needs avoidance. Found out about wife and kids accidentally via Facebook. "If you had not found out the truth, you would have had the relationship you wanted." Marriage - wanting to feel safe and have needs met. Marriage is commoditized, particularly in America.

All knowledge of attachment styles was born in this relationship Book: "Attached" - https://amzn.to/2oyre0R When you break a bone, you can go to the doctor, but there aren't necessarily such tools easily apparent in traumatic breakups. We only learn to navigate attachment trauma with tenderness towards ourselves with experience. Any future similar situation can now be informed by this. Goal for all human beings, especially women, is this idea and lifestyle of sovereignty. When we say yes to love, we also say yes to heartbreak. From victimhood to empowerment. If you're always a victim every time darkness happens, you're not going to be able to get to that place of new life. The relationship wasn't love; it was addiction.

Episode 305: Mike Johnson is from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada where he started a career at a young age as a recording and touring musician with his band Shyne Factory and later Shelter with Thieves. He worked in festival and stage management, video and music production and he owned and operated a music studio. Mike suffered from severe depression starting in his early teens and his "rock-star" lifestyle easily led him to alcohol abuse and eventually a very serious drug addiction . In 2013 Mike hit a rock bottom and decided enough is enough. He admitted himself to a 1 year intake addiction treatment program in Edmonton Canada called “Our House” where he dedicated his life to healing and learning everything about addiction and concurrent diseases. After losing his best friend to an overdose, Mike saw how insufficient the western treatments alone are, and became laser focused on finding more effective ways to help himself and other addicts truly heal. In his research, he came across Dr. Gabor Mates' work treating addiction patients with Ayahuasca. In 2015 Mike packed his bags and headed to Peru for 3 months to work with Ayahuasca and began dieting master plants in the Shipibo tradition. He continued working with Ayahuasca in Canada and Peru and in January 2017 his path led him to the Ayahuasca Foundation 10 week curandero initiation course where he found his place and his life purpose as a healer. Today, Mike Johnson can be found facilitating plant medicine ceremonies, offering pre-ceremony intention sessions as well as post-ceremony integration. He continues to be a creative being by writing music, connecting with nature and helping people find their healing path. Show notes: This is a special episode with Madelyn's partner Mike Johnson. Turn your pain into your passion. Turn your mess into your message. New monthly membership program - Sisu Society - maddymoon.com/sisu-society Two lessons per month exclusively on FB Live for members & access to community and connection. Feminine grit is required to be a feminine being. "Be a broken record for love." Mike's most consistent muse in life is music. Focused on recording and touring with a successful band, but a part of him was unhappy and lifestyle led into addiction. Mike finally sought help and went to a treatment center. Mike needed more than medications prescribed as an easy "fix" to addiction. After his friend passed away in treatment, Mike discovered plant medicine and Dr. Gabor Mates's work bringing patients to Peru to work with Ayahuasca. Every plant has a spirit. Every plant has light, and every plant has dark. Plant diets establish a relationship with these plants. "No one is flawed. It's just part of your journey to figure out these things you need to get through." Ayahuasca is a diagnostic tool and requires guidance and participation - cleaning the body. Experiences are so different from person to person. Anything worthwhile in life that has light, comes with shadow. Madelyn's relationship with Ayahuasca wasn't able to develop until she had an experience of darkness with it. You can hear Madelyn further discuss her Ayahuasca experience with Will Siu: maddymoon.com/will-siu/ Challenges and difficulties performing with bands on stage were like training for the ceremony space. When considering Ayahuasca ceremony, Madelyn discovered it was important to be heart-centered and have help in integration sessions to truly process the healing.

Episode 301: In this episode, Madelyn talks about an amazing book, The Missing Element, that she just received from a previous podcast guest, Astrologer - Debra Silverman. This book discusses the four elements — air, earth, water, and fire and how they affect your inner world. Many of us are on a quest to learn more about ourselves and others, and perhaps now more than ever — when we're deep into the Coronavirus quarantine, it's a great time to go within and learn more about how you function as an individual. The Missing Element was written for all of us who have ever felt that something was “wrong” with us, that we are odd and outside the norm. This book helps you to see beyond your perceived flaws to find your 'true' self, your gifts and your place in this world. You don't have to have an extensive Astrology background to understand these profound teachings. This is a fun playground to explore so you can learn more about yourself and others. Show notes: Madelyn's Instagram post: https://www.instagram.com/p/B-w4gLHHkYF/ How can you nurture yourself while you don’t have your current “medicine”? Do you need more nurturing or discipline?

Episode 299: Joe Towne is an award-winning writer and director who got his degree in Acting from the University of Southern California. He’s been a coach for the past 19 years for both businesses and performers – some of whom are selling that product you just bought or starring in that movie you Netflixed last night. This work compelled him to write a book about how our inner reality affects our outer experience, which led him to be a guest on the Dr. Oz show.  As an actor, Joe Towne has worked with people like Jennifer Love Hewitt and Hillary Swank and you can see him opposite Rebel Wilson in Isn’t It Romantic, which premiered in February of 2019 and is now available on iTunes. Joe Towne is also an acting coach at one of the top studios in Hollywood where he co-created their audition technique program. He works with professional actors and athletes, as they transition from their sport into the entertainment industry.  He also works with corporations bringing Mindset into practice in the workplace.  Last summer Joe helped coached up the top 24 high school quarterbacks in the country at the Elite 11 weekend in Los Angeles. The Actors Mindset program has been in Los Angeles (both independently and at The Aquila School), at USC, UCLA and most recently at the Vancouver Film School. To learn more about Mindset check out this interview on THAT ONE AUDITION podcast. Show notes: Why artists need boredom. Why you are an artist. Grab Madelyn's Free Gifts: maddymoon.com/freegift Being an artist doesn't mean being in deprivation and scarcity. The alarming financial statistics with being an actor. Madelyn's struggles with feeling scarcity while exploring the artist's world. "The myth of the tortured artist" The old model that there isn't enough for me unless I suffer. "Nothing abundant comes from burnout. When you're not embodying abundance, you're not going to attract it." The reason why we can't speak generally about abundance. If you're wanting to be a full-time actor, how do you not get into burnout? The principle of sustainability. "Take your rest as seriously as your hustle." How Feng Shui and your environment ties into an abundant mindset. Your environment reflects you whether it's seen or in a drawer — everything creates this constellation of energy that affects what's coming up. "That is which is closest to you has the greatest impact on you." Our entire home is marketing to us all day long and our home is a vision board. The stages of a Feng Shui makeover. The pitfalls of Feng Shui. Every culture has their own version of Feng Shui. "Joy is the vehicle that you travel your life with."

Episode 298: This is Madelyn's second episode where she discusses the Coronavirus and the stay-in-place quarantine. It feels silly to talk about anything else during these vulnerable times. Today, she's coming at you with applicable thoughts for your life outside of the quarantine. She dives right in on how the masculine and feminine containers are being affected, not only for us individually, but for the planet. It's not a secret that our world is lacking grounding and footing and it's impacting us all. In this episode, you'll learn how you can show up and give yourself the structure that you're craving. You'll also learn Madelyn's tangible advice for the quarantine and what her daily routine consists of. You'll also hear why it's okay to not feel super productive right now and how to give yourself a break.  One thing's for sure — we're all in this together. We're feeling the same things — the ups, the downs, and the 'all-arounds'. We've never had as much emotional polarity in our lives, right? It's true that not much is constant right now and this episode helps us to be okay with that. Show notes: "When our world is lacking grounding and footing, it’s really challenging to go as deep as we'd like in other areas (business, relationships, etc)." When there’s no grounding, it’s hard to fly.  Why our nervous systems do not feel safe right now.  In order for the feminine to feel emotionally and creatively expressed, she has to know that the alpha (masculine) has got her. We don’t have harmony right now.  How to create your safe, grounded container.  Why it will help you look for the masculine wherever you can right now. Any time you have discipline showing up in your life, that’s your masculine.  You are your best teacher - act like it right now.  Why women struggle with feeling mad. 'Gaslighting' and how it applies to the quarantine.  This is a time that people are feeling two different emotional polarities at the same time. i.e., secure vs terrified Madelyn's tangible list of things to do to help you throughout this time.

Episode 297: Julie Day is a Spiritual Counselor and Teacher, Astrologer, and Podcast Creator/Host. Julie is fascinated by the process of waking up while living inside a human suit. She graduated from the Agape International Spiritual Center where she was licensed as a Spiritual Practitioner in 2010.

We’re speaking today about psychedelics as medicine, using psychedelics in a therapeutic sense. I haven’t talked about this on the podcast before — very excited to be bringing to you an expert on the matter, Will Siu, who is an MD and DPhil.  I don't know what a DPhil is, but he’s a DPhil. He completed medical and graduate school at UCLA and Oxford University respectively before training as a psychiatrist at Harvard Medical School.

Episode 294:  Do you have a hard time owning and blending all of the parts and pieces that make up you? If so, you're not alone. Many of us shut down the parts of us that we don't think are appropriate for the current situation we're in. We feel uncomfortable wearing red lipstick to the office. We feel shameful for having pics of our gurus on our desk for fear if someone sees them and thinks we're a weirdo. We hide our truest self, every single day. Here's the thing — doing the thing and being seen doing it, liberates you. And more importantly, it makes you more available to love and to be loved. More of you is available. By connecting to all of the parts and pieces that make you, you... you soften something in your body that simply becomes magnetic. Blending the feminine and masculine energies of who you truly are makes you electric.  Because at the end of the day, it's YOU who thinks you're too snobbish. It's YOU who thinks too loud. It's YOU who thinks you're too intelligent. It's YOU who thinks you're the black sheep. The moment you realize those truths, you can't turn back. You all a sudden know that if you think that, then it is up to YOU to make a choice to change it. All a sudden you're responsible and everything is in your hands. This is where healing gets done — when you reveal a part of you that you've been hiding for all of these years. This episode will teach you how to own who you are and the importance of blending the "work" you with the "real" you. Show notes: Madelyn’s juicy, seductive ritual of letting pleasure lead her for 24 hours. Madelyn's favorite toy - her cervix wand: https://bit.ly/2SK5a5X Blending your energies — how can I be a feminine embodied creature while also running a masculine business? Why Madelyn is over the traditional business hustle and the discouraging feeling of overwhelm.  “It’s up to me to allow myself to step back.” “Let your feminine heart - your yearning to let go, to run the show for a bit.” How to start training your masculine with meditation and breathwork. How to create harmony where you have a choice in what energy (masculine/feminine) you lead with.  The reframe with feeling judged and how to release those stories that we tell ourselves. How to create more ownership to make a different, more empowering choice.  Fun fact: Egypt is the #1 feminine country. The sobering thought that you are going to pass and how Madelyn uses it as the biggest motivating factor. “Any outward focus is you’re really trying to numb the inward experience.” More of you is available to love and be loved when you’re taking ownership of your desires.  When you connect your heart to your yoni lips something softens in your body that is magnetic.  How to become more available and open yourself to all the versions of you. “You can’t truly love all that life provides if you can’t love all that you provide.” “Everything is a reflection — start taking ownership of that reflection.” The Embodied Retreat with Jamie Wollrab: maddymoon.com/events Connect with Maddy:  Facebook: https://facebook.com/moonfitness/ Instagram: https://instagram.com/madelynmoon/ Subscribe to the podcast on iTunes: http://maddymoon.com/itunes Download my Four Favourite Feminine Embodiment Practices: https://maddymoon.com/freegift

Episode 293: John Wineland, a Los Angeles based relationship coach, speaker and teacher has been guiding both men and women in the realms of life purpose, relational communication, sexual intimacy and embodiment for over a decade. John's clients include entrepreneurs, leading thinkers in the world of personal development and entertainment, Ted speakers and creative leaders in Hollywood. John brings a multi-faceted approach, which is both energetic and highly practical, to his workshops and experiential coaching sessions. John's embodiment-driven teaching draws from not only over 30 years experience of his own Buddhist meditative practice, but from 10 years intensive study and practice with renowned Yogic Intimacy teacher, David Deida.

How he avoids writer's block. How he keeps his nervous system clean so he can be a vessel. An example of being embodied while being scared of abandonment. "Yogic revealing" How does it feed the masculine to see the range of the feminine? Why would I show a man my ditsy, fun side when I’m supposed to be strong - what if I look dumb? Why being in your head and being analytical is not being embodied. “Embodiment at its core is really a journey into who you are. That’s why people are craving it.” Taboo definition - the dark sexual energy and examples - dirty talk, cutting, defilement, bondage. We all have some dark sexual energy - it’s been repressed in most of us. The gifts that our taboos can teach us. Madelyn reveals her taboo. “Defiling with love” “Sex is the deepest yoga.” "When you activate and open your heart, you then practice into the darker realms and a clearing will take place." How do we know when it’s time to leave a relationship? John's stance on dating and dating apps. The big mistake people make is that they don’t spend time alone and develop their gifts and their capacity to be with themself. "When you become full and radiant with your feminine expression, you don't need a dating app." "If you can’t be alone, then you can’t be in a relationship."

Episode 292: Madelyn Moon plants her feet and deepens her breath for this episode on embodied confrontation with your loved ones. She starts this episode by expressing how to access the Universe's bank account and that there's absolutely no limit to the amount of money or love that you can have in your life unless YOU are creating an upper limit for yourself. And if you think that you are, she shares some resources to bust through your self-imposed limits. She talks about how to allow love outside of marriage and why the "choose-no-man" masculine cleanse she did led her to a deeper understanding of deep intimacy — an intimacy with those she doesn't even personally know.  She's playing with how much love she can let in, as well as the many different types of love there is. She invites you to do the same. How much more love can you let in? She discusses her top 5 ego-busting tools for embodied confrontation. Being disembodied is what leads to explosions, resentments, passive-aggressiveness and fear. Things get messy when we're not in our bodies.
