In this day and age, it seems more of us are seeking for a deeper, more meaningful connection to ourselves and to the world around us. As much as we have the tools to do so, we also have more distractions making it harder for us to stay present, grateful and faithful in the divine unfolding of our lives. The Cosmic Channel Podcast is a series that delves deeper into some of the most important questions we may have in life: What is my purpose and my gifts? What am I here for? What is stopping me? What are my fears? How can I access the field of limitless possibilities? How do I get in flow with the universe while remaining connected to the present moment? These weekly episodes of story telling and talks from spiritual teachers, yoga practitioners, holistic health coaches, and wellness entrepreneurs, aim to give you the tools you may be searching for when it comes to co-creating your reality. Together, we will explore the mystical and non mystical, through conversations about yoga, wellness, spirituality, nutrition, mental and emotional health to guide you back to your high vibrational self. I truly hope the conversations will enhance your awareness so you can in turn become your own channel and receive your own special gifts. I believe that the more we all realize our greatest unique potentials, we can serve the world around us in the most inspiring and inspirational ways.

    TCC S3 EP7 "Finding balance between teaching yoga, motherhood, and womanhood"

    In this very exciting episode, I got to speak with the inspiring, elegant and graceful Amina Taha. She is someone I have truly looked up to on my yoga journey and I feel so lucky to have been able to attend her classes in person and get to meet her. She is as sweet in person as she appears online. Her dedication to her own practice, her students, and building her career from scratch is inspirational and motivating. We got to talk about her own journey with yoga and how it led her down the path to teach.  Although it was not necessarily something she originally thought of doing, it has become her dharma to spread the teachings of yoga. Together we discuss some important yogic lessons such as overcoming limiting beliefs, meditation, and finding the answers within our own physical bodies. Many of us can fall off the bandwagon and stop practicing. We can get bored or injured which sometimes throws us off. However, Amina has been able to overcome these obstacles by finding new ways of moving her body and including that in her practice and in her classes. She now adds many Pilates and bare exercises to her practice in order to keep the spark going. At the moment she has been very focused on building her application in order to share her love of yoga with the world. She has applied many of the lessons from the yoga practice in all aspects of her life such as motherhood and womanhood.   mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel -- Edited, Mastered and Distributed by sonorouslab.com

    If you ever lost your faith, or find yourself losing faith quickly, this episode is for you. In this solo conversation, I share with you one of the most significant events in my life that took me further away from my trust in a Higher Power. I experienced grief for the first time a day after I turned 18 years old. I decided then & there that since my prayers weren't answered, there was no such thing as a Higher Power. I felt betrayed, disappointed and mostly angry. For the years after that, I stopped believing in anything. I stopped praying. I went into complete darkness and found myself making poor life decisions. There isn't one way to reconnect to our faith. For me, it was through meditation and yoga. It was through calming down the noise in my mind. Through opening up my heart. For others, it may be through prayer or immersing oneself in nature. Throughout our lives we may have moments of doubt, of confusion, of loss, of grief. We may have moments where we fall from grace and lose faith. Falling from grace just means we have certain beliefs about God, the Universe, Source (whatever it is you call it), that are against us. We believe that because things aren't happening the way we asked them to that they aren't right.In this episode, I share with you how I've been using my faith in order to navigate the new experiences in my life. Each moment is an opportunity to gravitate higher towards Love or lower towards Fear.   mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel -- Edited, Mastered and Distributed by sonorouslab.com

    I am so grateful to be able to share this episode with Razane Jammal during Mental Health Awareness month. Some of you may already know Razane as the Lebanese British actor starring in roles like Paranormal on Netflix. But how well do we know someone based on what they do? Who is Razane Jammal behind the scenes? Who is she when she is not in front of the cameras?   Razane and I met during a women's circle I hosted in London. As all of us are, she is a multi-faceted woman with many different layers. She may be known for her acting career and breaking barriers, but she's also deeply spiritual, wise and connected to a world beyond this one. This was one of the deepest episodes I've ever recorded as we spoke about the loss of her mother, feeling lonely and depressed. Razane is bold and has paved her own way despite all the trials and tribulations that life threw at her. These experiences she was willing to share with us allowed Razane to strengthen her connection and faith with the Universe. In this episode, we discussed profound spiritual teachings and insights that helped her find herself after the loss of her beautiful mother. We hope this episode brings you comfort & inspires you to find home again within yourself no matter how far away you may have wandered.   mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel @razanejammal -- Edited and Mixed By sonorouslab.com

    Do you sometimes wish you were somewhere else? Do you find the present moment boring, annoying, unfulfilling? Do you keep on postponing what you should be doing today, thinking you'll do it tomorrow? In this episode, I share with you how I have been managing my move from London to Dubai. It has been interesting navigating such a different chapter in my life and I've found it very important to remain grounded. It is easy for us to feel uprooted when our external world changes. Yet, it is even more important to feel centered regardless of what is happening outside of us. In order to keep moving forward and not fall back into our old patterns, we must choose to keep evolving and applying the lessons we have learned along the way.  I want to encourage you all to do the things that light you up more often and to no longer let the past keep you from following your mission on this planet Earth. This podcast has always been a reminder for me to keep planting seeds in empty pots. To reach higher heights, as a human being and as a soul.   mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel -- Edited and Mixed By sonorouslab.com

    Are you digging for answers in regards to your health but have no clue where to start? Are conventional doctors unable to give you a proper diagnosis and are just classifying your dis-ease as “anxiety” or “stress-related”? In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing Lana, a certified naturopath and member of the Association of Naturopathic Practitioners, yoga teacher, reiki practitioner & sound healer. Lana, like myself, believes in a holistic approach to healing and encourages daily practices that help nourish mind, body and spirit. Lana opens up about her own health journey and how she struggled with PCOS, anxiety, depression, acne and an array of symptoms that most doctors were unable to help her with. Luckily, when life sent her messages, she listened and decided to embark on her healing journey by working with a homeopath and nutritionist to find the root cause of her illnesses. It was soon after her experience with her nutritionist that she decided to become one herself. Today, Lana helps people reclaim their body and health through ancient wisdom, indigenous practices and sciences. Lana hugely influenced my journey when I first started and I believe she can do the same for you too. By remaining authentic and true to herself, Lana opens up about topics such as addiction and feeling alone on the self-healing journey. The healing journey can feel like walking the path of the lone wolf, and sometimes it is required before you can join the pack again. However, we hope that through this episode, you feel less alone and finally seen, understood and cared for. mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel @lunaroniyari -- Edited and Mixed By sonorouslab.com

In this first episode, I open up about what I've been experiencing these last few months & what it is I've learned through the myomectomy (c-section surgery). I had to apply everything I've learned these last few years into practice. From surrendering, to working on limiting beliefs, to learning more about my fears, I held space for myself in a way that I never have in the past. It's been refreshing & relieving to feel more at peace with life's mysteries. It is our birthright to experience a life of growth, transformation and love. However, it is inevitable to also experience hardships, darkness and loss.

    Our bodies are always talking to us. Sometimes we listen. Sometimes we aren't sure what the messages mean. In this episode, I share with you what I believe the fibroid represents in my life and how it has been a catalyst for further growth and transformation. For centuries, there has been a lot of stigma, shame, and guilt that has been associated with women's bodies and sexuality. Many of us women feel disconnected from our womb space due to the dominating masculine energy and patriarchy. When we are disconnected from this sacred space, we are disconnected from the divine because the divine exists within every part of the body. The way I see it, there is no such thing as coincidences. When things happen, when illnesses manifest, it is an opportunity for us to evolve our souls and deepen our connection to ourselves and a Higher Power. I hope this episode inspires you to take a look at the ways you've separated from love and to awaken a part of yourself that has been dormant. mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel -- Edited and Mixed By sonorouslab.com

    With everything going on in the world, I wanted to talk more about the mental conflicts we encounter ourselves on a daily basis. Many of us are attached to our thoughts and we make decisions and take action based on our thoughts and beliefs. However, if we were to take a look at the landscape of our minds, we would immediately notice it is constantly in conflict. When you feel like it's a yes, there is a no that follows. It's like a shadow following you around constantly. Mental conflicts create internal fear which keeps us trapped and stuck. “Should I? Should I not? Is it right? Is it wrong? Do I ever change my beliefs?  Do I keep switching my mind on what needs to be done and said?” This most certainly affects our wellbeing but it does not stop there. Our mental conflicts are reinforced when we relate to others. This is why it's important to evaluate each and every single one of your relationships in your life. From intimate relationships to broader ones. Are you in conflict with a parent? A sibling? A friend? The more love you have in your relationships, the greater the impact of change will be on the world. We cannot expect nations to be at peace when we are not at peace with our immediate loved ones. In this episode, I've come to the conclusion that wars are just beliefs butting heads. They are ideologies pitted against each other. Whoever has the most power and capital wins and ends up writing history. In this episode, I'll be discussing what it means to decolonise your mind, and how what we are seeing happen in Palestine and Israel is a reflection of the state of man's mind. mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel @tambijj @thelunacommunity --- Edited and Mixed By sonorouslab.com

Tamara creates and facilitates sacred spaces and immersive workshops with the intention of healing, gaining empowered knowledge and creating community. We both agree that anyone can practice meditation, it is just about finding a style that works for you. Meditation takes commitment, focus and a desire to sit through the discomfort and get to a point where you enjoy the practice. Just like anything, it is a skill you cultivate. It will not click the first time or even the 10th time. Meditation is a way to get to know your True Self. It is a door to cultivate a relationship with the Universe and the Divine.

    Many of us try to manifest things in our lives from a place of activity. We believe the more we do, the more we get. However, we easily forget that a huge component of manifestation is surrender. So, what does it mean to let go of the fruits of your labor? It's the understanding that the day you plant the seed is not the day you get the fruit. The day you set the intention is not the day you see your intention come to life. There needs to be a cultivation of patience and gratitude moment to moment. When we put in so much work, effort, and time into whatever it is we are trying to get, we have expectations that we will reap certain rewards and we get disappointed when we don't. Surrender is acceptance of life as it is. In this moment. Not in the future moment. Not in a moment that isn't here just yet. Surrender is acceptance of who you are as you are. It's not about needing to constantly improve yourself. Surrender is giving up your desires to a higher power trusting that whatever is meant for you will not miss you. mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel --- Edited and Mixed By sonorouslab.com

    Looking at my life and looking at my past, there was definitely a lack of confidence. It was interesting to see how going into unknown territories, doing the hard things and doing things I'm not used to doing in order to get better at them allowed me to get more confident in who I am. Confidence is something that grows and you can water it. If it is an intention to grow in your confidence and in yourself, you can put that as your intention as we go through this podcast. In this episode, I share with you some of the misconceptions we have around confidence and give you some tools that helped me grow my confidence. Surprise surprise, my spiritual practice is one of them as it helped me move past my own judgments, therefore releasing other people's judgments about me. From discussing our physical posture to being heartbroken, this episode will help you visualize what your confident self looks, talks, and walks! mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel --- Edited and Mixed By sonorouslab.com

    Have you been finding it difficult to love yourself without feeling like it is selfish? Do you shy away from saying the words “I love you” to you? Do you have trouble owning the fact that you love yourself or are you unable to find things within yourself that you love? In this episode, Marie-Christine, a Life Coach based in Beirut, and I discuss the limiting beliefs around loving ourselves and how we can cultivate a more loving relationship by creating new habits and patterns. We share with you effective tools which have helped us both and we hope it helps you too. The journey towards self-love all really begins with self-awareness and incorporating more loving activities. It goes beyond just romancing ourselves with bubble baths and face masks, which are great for some days but could also be masking a much deeper pain. mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel @mindsetbloom --- Edited and Mixed By sonorouslab.com

    As someone who has experienced burnouts multiple times, I wanted to share an episode with you on why it happens, how to avoid it and most importantly what can it teach us about ourselves. Burnouts can be an indication that the way we are moving through life is unnatural and detached. We are all designed differently and we are not meant to be moving through life in the same ways. Burnouts teach us that we are not checking in with ourselves enough of the time and illness will manifest to get you back in touch with you. I learned it the hard way that I should allow myself to pause when I have the chance not, not when I have to. When you burn out, it can take quite some time to heal from the repercussions and it will stop you from experiencing life because you're going to have to tend to much deeper wounds than you might have had you rested earlier on. mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel --- Edited and Mixed By sonorouslab.com

In this episode, I was thrilled to speak with Lulwa Alarmali, also known as @thefunctionalnutritionist. She is the first Kuwaiti functional medicine practitioner. She is also a Clinical Dietician and IOC Sports Nutritionist.   In this episode, we discussed what functional nutrition is and why it is important to not only look at gut health but emotional and mental health when it comes to healing. It is an empowering model because it allows you to dive deeper into why and how you might have gotten ill.   We chatted about what leaky gut is and how cortisol, the stress hormone, plays a huge role when it comes to your digestive health and overall wellbeing.

    A year into the pandemic, we all feel like the light at the end of the tunnel keeps moving away from us. It has been a challenging year to say the least and with that a lot has come up to the surface. In this episode, Nawar and I discuss how we have noticed shame resurface in a very visible and destructive way. We are shamed for any opinions we have on this invisible, yet mighty virus. Whether we stand for or against the vaccine, whether we believe in conspiracy theories or not, all of us seem to have a very different opinion as to what is “right” and “wrong”. Yet we enforce our opinions on others by shaming them for thinking differently and this is a story as old as time. The way we both see it, we must move beyond our personal opinions and beliefs in order to reach a state of unconditional love for all beings. We rose above our own fears of sharing our truths with you in hopes to show you that integration in society can only happen when we have compassion for one another.   mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel www.nawarkamona.com @nawarkamonaa --- Edited and Mixed By sonorouslab.com

    Many of us are unaware of the limiting beliefs we have when it comes to our abilities to self-heal. We tend to focus on one method of healing instead of looking at all different types of modalities that can enhance our recovery. Being healthy goes beyond just what you feed your body. It is what you feed your mind and how you nurture your soul. In this episode, I share with you snippets of my own health journey and what really helped me feel better. There was a lot of trial and error in the process but I came to learn that there are reasons why we manifest illness in our lives. If there is a way to bring them in, then there surely is a way to bring them back out. On a personal level what has helped me the most was to surrender my control to a higher power and to allow for divine intervention to take place more of the time. My consistent meditation practice and finally becoming aware of some deeply rooted beliefs allowed me to heal on all levels. It is a journey however, and sometimes I feel good about it and other times I feel I slipped back. Regardless, I've learned to approach myself my compassion and non-judgment. mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel --- Produced By sonorouslab.com

I allowed myself to feel through my whole range of emotions instead of holding back from speaking authentically. My experience with dealing with inner-conflict has been to remain present with it. Growing up I was so used to detaching myself from challenging circumstances and I realized it actually hindered me more than anything. I hope this conversation inspires you to speak your truth even when your voice is shaking and to be true to yourself moment to moment.

There will be so many new exciting interviews and different topics to help increase your awareness on topics of spirituality, health, yoga, and life in general! These episodes are to transport you out of the hustle & bustle of daily life into a more sacred space within yourself. Unscripted, I wanted to have a heart-to-heart conversation and speak from a place of presence, intuition and trust. As someone who long mistrusted myself, my path and intuition, I have found that nothing hurts you more than to walk a path that is not yours or does not feel right. Nothing hurts more than feeling stuck or fearful of what would happen if you were to take a leap of faith.   I am hoping this space can be a place of refuge, of retreat, and of remembrance. A space of connection, compassion, curiosity and care. A space where we can walk each other home and remember our own divinity. I look forward to this new year together!

    In this newest episode, we have Hayat Abu Samra with us. Hayat in Arabic means “Life” & I find her name suits her so well as she's an advocate for all human lives & rights. Hayat is a writer, actor and activist living in Jordan & originally Palestinian. In this episode, we talk about our current world events & the influence social media can have on spreading them like wildfire. We know how big a big a role social media has in shaping our world views and therefore our world. We've seen it before & we're seeing it especially with the Black Lives Matter revolution. It is important to note though that it takes more than posting black squares to be an activist. Being an activist is not being sympathetic towards what's happening but empathetic.
