Road Trip to Wellness

The love for all living creatures is the most noble attribute of man. ~ Charles Darwin. Nature and animals hold a great deal of wisdom and can offer us valuable lessons relevant to our daily lives. This podcast episode is dedicated to the animals we encounter daily and how they can provide us with healing messages, and guidance. Do you have daily animal visitors like I do each day? Adorable brown hares, a crew of crows, grey squirrels, and bluebirds are all around me and visit my back door and front window from time. I've taken a moment to look up the spiritual meanings and symbolism of what these adorable visitors may be trying to share with me.       #podcaster #animalsymbolism #nature #spirituality 

If you've been searching for a way to level up your life or just get yourself out of what I like to call a "mind rut", then this podcast episode is definitely for you.    I think we can spend a lot of time searching for the magic formulas we think are out there to get us more money, happiness, peace and love, to name a few. I also believe that sometimes people are sent, to deliver messages or truths, we may read or hear a song, a poem and feel comforted in our sorrow or excited in a new love or learn a new perspective.  That's exactly what I hope happens for you fromthis episode of the RTTW Podcast. My friends invited me to a what I'm calling "The 300 challenge" based on and inspired by the Motivation + talk by Steve Harvey. The talk is inspiring and motivating to say the least and knew I needed to help share it.    Take the challenge with us! Steve suggests 2 simple and relevant scriptures from the Bible that remind us of how simple life with God/Spirit/Creator/Universe can be. 1) James 4:3 2) Habakkuk 2:2-3  Let me know how you feel after listening and as always I'll keep bringing you simple ways to help you be more intentional in the way you approach your well-being! Muah!     

Early morning podcast episode! I do my best work EARLY in the mornings, before the world wakes up, when it's still dark and quiet all around. This is my prayer, meditation and quiet time to pray and seek the answers I am searching for. Follow this episode with my relaxing Urban Rainstorm episode! Seek solitude for the answers you need ♥️

I love listening to the sounds of rain. Whether a soft summer rain, a light afternoon shower or overnight rain storm, I could just curl up on a porch or patio and take lazy naps all day! I have been leaning in to these soft, restful moments just for me... and giving myself the grace to enjoy it without judgement. Knowing when it takes those moments of rest is important to our healing journey, our physical bodies, our minds and so much more. Fall into your dream state listening to this Urban Rainstorm. This one made me sit up in my bed. It was still dark out and the rain songs were harmonizing just so right. So have your moment and enjoy this Urban Rainstorm. Use it any time you need a moment of relaxation, to help you fall asleep or during your seated meditation time. Be well.

Over the last week after interviewing Nicole and listening & editing this episode, I have determined that Nicole is truly a gift and a force. A radiant force on this journey that we call life and she is sharing some of the most beautiful ways that she's navigated smooth and tough terrain on her Journey. From sharing the gift of breathwork within her community, to consistent communing with nature and eating from her backyard what is offered seasonally from the earth, Nicole is all about conscious and authentic living! Your Journey just got sweeter so tune in! This was truly an amazing interview! Connect with Nicole:  @louisvillesaltcave @ndavisbartlett Louisville Salt Cave | 9800 Shelbyville Road | Louisville, KY 40223   Nicole Bartlett believes we all have the ability to self-heal in some capacity and wanted to run a business that offered holistic health options to embrace this. She spent 10 years in biotechnology managing global brands that benefited immunity through nutrition. This engrained the understanding of preventative health for longevity, and she felt the need to share this information with her community. She's now a wife, mother to 3 children, and an advocate of equal rights and community wholeness. She believes relationships, whether to self, one another, or our planet, offer us the opportunity to live out our soul's work. Her passion fuels the creativity she brings to the world. Nicole opened the Cave in 2015 and it has become a space for spiritual and self-discovery, and has eased allergy symptoms for thousands in the Ohio Valley over the past 5 years. Nicole and the salt cave are based in Louisville, Kentucky.   Connet with Rona, Creator of Road Trip to Wellness/Odyssey Wellness Coaching & the Road Trip to Wellness Podcast.

Having a consistent, daily, spiritual practice has been so rewarding for me, although it hasn't been easy and I don't always hit it just right. Life happens!    In this episode, Road Trip to Wellness, Creator, Rona Dixon, discusses the reasons and benefits of having a consistent spiritual ritual, practice or devotion time, ways you can begin and other tools to amplify the energy and vibrations when you practice. There is no right or wrong way! This is personal to each and every one person.    I decided to start making the Psalms a aprt of my daily practice when I received the book Powers of the Psalms by Anna Riva as a gift from a dear friend. This books shows 375 to use the Psalms to for love, power, revenge, success, blessings, protection and much more! I love this book so much, and I explain why so listen, subscribe and share!   Share with us any new ideas and suggestions for our consistent spiritual practice!

Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy: essentially tells your consciousness to take a backseat and lets you turn your attention inward to that deeper sense of the unconscious self, temporarily suspending the mind's critical faculties. Just like how you can zone out and daydream without actually seeing what's going on, hypnosis allows you to direct your thoughts without actually engaging your mind.  Past life regression is a technique that attempts to use hypnosis in order to recover memories from previous lives.   Check out the Natural Wellness Academy and the wonderful courses offered at: Naturalwellnessacademy.org Here is the link to Dr. LJ's Book, Your Mind: The Owner's Manual https://www.amazon.com/Your-Mind-Linda-Joy-Rose/dp/1895383099/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=your+mind+the+owners+manual&qid=1612800017&s=books&sr=1-4

2019 was the starting point of me paying greater attention to my skin and body care routine. I made the vow to begin using ONLY (or as much as absolutely possible) natural body and skin care products. The previous summer, I attended the One Music Festival in Atlanta and found an amazing vendor that made and sold natural products. I purchased a black tea facial scrub that changed my skin so drastically, I knew I had to continue this routine. My face and skin was noticebly brighter, clearer and my skin tone more even. I mean, it LOOKED super healthy. As I continued deeper into my new routine during 2019, I didn't opt for just "all-natural", I went mostly for PLANT-BASED products- or products that are "clean", easily accessible and sometimes "edible". Here we are in 2021, and my skin is looking better than ever and my body and haircare are also all nearly plant-based and all natural.   My guest today: Tiffany Bailey is a Master Herbalist and Licensed Aesthetician and creator of Ain't That Sumthin Skincare in Indianapolis, Indiana. Her mobile skincare and beauty services held steady even during COVID-19, providing self-care to many just needing to ground, relax and reconnect with themselves. Tiffany's work as a Master Herbalist shows up in her products, as she relies on native plants, herbs and roots found in your own backyard. She healed her own sensitive skin through the use of plant-based products and created her own line Ain't That Sumthin' Skincare.  In this epidose we discuss:  Hydration Ingredients: read the label!

Connect with today's guest! Missy Ammerman, LCSW Linktree: https://linktr.ee/missywardammerman IG: @missywardammerman Happy spring folks! It was a long, cold winter and it's time to enjoy the outdoors and sunshine. Winter is typically a time for many to go inward, re-evaluate and reflect. To our surprise, 2020 also had us adapting to many unexpected and new normals. I felt all this too, and the time I took was reflective and introspective. RELATIONSHIPS- current and past -seemed to keep coming up and I had to evaluate my part in them all. The good, the bad and yes...the ugly. And for some of my relationships- there was a need to apologize, whethere I felt I was wrong or not...I just felt the need.  As we process these thoughts and emotions, it can be overwhelming, leaving us feeling anxious and unsure. So to help us understand things a little better, I called on Missy Ammerman-LCSW, to help me sort through some emotions related to my current and past relationships and how I was approaching and/or showing up for them. Missy's services at her practice in Lexington, Kentucky, include a hybrid of therapy and coaching to help men and women struggling with anxiety, depression and relationship issues identify roadblocks and address issues that are keeping them feeling stuck. Hallelujah! Bingo! YES! This is what we need ya'll (see how I love you??)! Grab a note pad and pen and hear Missy's advice on:  - Your MINDSET and how to move through roadblocks, anxiety and other uncertainties. - Overcoming isolation anxieties and "analysis paralysis" .  - How to use healthy and effective communication approaches in your relationships - and Mastering the ART of the APOLOGY I needed ALL of this and although you can't see me during this episode, you'll probably hear the tears and emotion in my voice. This self-work is hard! But I see and feel every one of you doing your best to be better to yourselves so you can pour into and be better to others.  Take a deep breath and listen to this episode. And seriously...it's ok.   You are ok. We are OK.  I love you. Rona P.S.

I was raised in the church and share the gift of teaching much like my grandfather, a church elder, my father and his brothers (mostly all ministers), but spent the majority of my life bewildered and stifled by the rules of "religion". My spiritual journey has created an overflow of questions that have followed me my entire life and I get greater understanding and many of those questions clarified in this episode! HALLELUJAH!@mr_authenticity patiently breaks down my questions, thoughts and ideas and affirms them with biblical scripture, gentle wisdom and common sense. He teaches us:Down to earth principles for living a "spiritually well" life About the "still small voice" of God and how to hear it.How living a spiritual well or "Godly" lifestyle is available to everyone not just "religious" people. As a teacher, he genuinely focuses on helping people from all walks of life capture their authenticity, embrace who they are now, and create a vision rooted in movement for their future. Mr. Patterson is the founder of Authentic Movement, an ordained minister, mentor, coach, public speaker, strategic consultant, and leader within his community. I'm so grateful to get to share him with you!  Song credit: Apart by Gene Moore*****************************Connect with Tolvi on social media :  Instagram: @mr_authenticity    |   Facebook: Tolvi Patterson Tolvi R.
