Topanga Moon

It is time to say goodbye to my brand Topanga Moon. This is something that has taken me some months to come to and I have been wrestling with this decisions and looking for clarity on what to do with this space. It took some time and I received the clarity I was looking for and in this very vulnerable episode I will share the reasons behind the decision and what I think is next for this podcast space. I recorded this episode on the Harvest Moon and as you hear in this episode that is a very significant part to this decision and the best way to end on one of my favourite moons. This year I have really strengthened my faith which has led me to the decision to evolve and start a new chapter. This whole brand and space started with the moon party, I always thought it was a way I was strengthening my spiritual life but what I didn't know at the time was that is was actually taking away from the truth of a spiritual life and that is because it didn't centre God. I have loved creating this community, all of the interviews on the podcast and the incredible guests that have come into the podcast. I am so proud of the interviews on the podcast and know how much they have enriched my life. I also love the meditations, but the podcast has mostly featured the moon meditations in the past year and although I think they are beautiful and full of pure intent I no longer want to focus on the moon as a way to create desires. You will hear in depth in this episode how I came to this realization, how I still love the beauty of the moon and the things that prompted me to create a shift and know that it is time to end this brand and begin to create something new. I don't have all the answers and this decision is based off of what feels right for me right now in my walk with faith. This space has been such a blessing and it is definitely not over! When the time is right there will be a new name, a new mission and direction for the podcast. Thank you for being a part of this dreamy space, the meditations and interviews will remain on the podcast for you. I am excited for this new journey and I hope you will stick around for all the newness that is to come! Thank you and talk to you soon!! xoAna

Today's guest is my dearest friend and most frequent guest on the Topanga Moon podcast! Aneta Sofronova is the founder and creator of the sustainable clothing brand Nusha, a brand rooted in earth-conscious production and clothing made from natural fibres and dyes that are healthy for you and the planet. I am thrilled to have her on the podcast to dive into her mission behind her clothing brand, the design evolution of her brand and how that is connected to her heritage, the history of the hemp fibre industry, today's oversaturation of toxic clothing, her love of using and cultivating plant dyes and so much more!We dive into:The evolution of Aneta's brand Nusha, the meaning behind her brand name. Her deep connection to plants, growing them and how that was infused into the original name of her brand Immortelle - meaning everlasting, growing in the Mediterranean. Design that can withstand the test of time. Using her nickname Nusha for the new name, it connects her to her roots and younger self - sweet sentimental and from her heritage. How hemp is meaningful for the region that she is from and important for her brand. Hemp is unlike any other plant and has so many end uses.How Aneta's grandmother use to grow hemp in her village, and using hemp for so many things. Taking it down to the river for the retting process, breaking down the stocks to reveal the fibre. Uncovering the history of how we create goods and what fabrics we use and why. Hemp is one of the oldest textiles known to man. Even the word canvas, which is a type of woven fabric, the origin of canvas comes from cannabis. How hemp was used in the military, used in the ships that came over to America, even Henry ford was experimenting with hemp. There were two big industries that saw hemp as a big threat: the cotton industry which was popular in America, and the oil industry - which saw it as a huge threat because you could make biofuels and bio plastic from hemp. How it became illegal to grow hemp in North America. We discuss the toxins in our clothing and the fashion industry. Wearing petroleum products on our bodies.The creation of a campaign to demonize the hemp industry and thus making both marijuana and hemp illegal. We also discuss Aneta's love of plant dyes, the intricate process and how using plant dyes beautifully connects her fashion to nature.Naturally dying fabric consists of many different steps - harder and more expensive but has been used for so long. The more we step away from what is harder to create the less we respect the garment. Aneta shares her favourite natural dyes and the different processes. We also discuss the energetic properties of natural colours, the significance of using certain colours like slate blue for porches, and the frequency of natural fibres.You can check out Aneta's brand here: https://hellonusha.com/@hello.nusha@anetasofronovaAnd find Topanga Moon here:https://www.topangamoon.com/@topanga_moon

What it's like being an immigrant. Not being able to express herself in kindergarten because she spoke Spanish.Not feeling home in Germany but embracing and creating her home.The duality of where do I belong? Which was a struggle she had for so many years, and being someone who loved so many things.How yoga found her in an unexpected way.

Having so many interests, on the yoga mat she is at peace but outside of the mat there is wildness - chaotic in a positive way.The way you move as a picture of your emotions in that moment, a way of getting out of stickiness.

This episode is all about the unique places and local spots from my European summer trip traveling through Italy and Croatia. I talk about our experiences in Venice, Italy and he incredible food I had and how Italy passed a bill to ban synthetic foods. Some of the highlights in Venice, we stayed in this area called Dorsoduro and it's not as touristy as the other areas, we walked everywhere, had gelato, lots of food, saw gorgeous cathedrals and went to the oldest cafe, cafe florian which is decorated in baroque style - so gorgeous in the main square, and also went to see La Fenice - opera house dating back to 1792. Then we travelled by ferry to the northern part of Croatia and I chatted about some cool experiences we had in my home country:My parents new villa in the town of Posedarje in Zadar. Going to an equestrian competition that dates back to 1715 called Sinjska Alka.Discovering the Krzni Put - way of the cross- a religious pilgrimage nearby designed by artists from all over Europe.Going to Velika Gospa, that biggest religious celebration of the year in Croatia.Swimming in fresh mountain spring water at the site of a local legend and love story from the turn of the 19th century.

This is such a gorgeous and juicy summer episode that I am thrilled to share! I have wanted to talk about herbalism and holistic nutrition on the podcast for a while now and having Carley Nadine on the podcast to share her expertise is perfect, she inspires me so much and her information and knowledge is so grounded and approachable - it really is wellness that works!In our beautiful conversation today we dive into:Carley's recent apprenticeship at Herb Pharm, her eat-pray-love year, connecting to herself and knowing she needed to immerse herself into the herbalist world. After being a city herbalist for so long she knew she needed to go out into the vast landscape and fully dive into the herb world. Divinely timed, living in community with 8 other women, working with the land and having a strong connection and communication with the plant world. Plant sits: taking a tincture of a plant you don't know and working with it to uncover what it is and how it works with your energetic body.Sitting with hawthorn, potent for the heart, opening of the heart. The mind-body connection when it comes to holistic nutrition. Developing a spiritual practice over time and seeing how much that impacted her health. Feeling like she needed to be perfect when it came to food, looking at all problems as a one-juice-away from achieving the ultimate health, being all about the physical body. Finally realizing how much our mind is connected to our health, how our gut is connected to the brain. Hormone health and women being disconnected to their cycles and living in a masculine world - this connection to stress and dysregulation.We have 4 cycles in our menstrual cycle, seen as the 4 seasons - mimicking nature and the moon. We have this internal need to be connected to plants, we have an internal herbalist inside of us. 4 cycles: menstruation is our inner winter, the follicular phase is the springtime, our ovulatory is our inner summer, the luteal phase is our inner autumn. Discussing Carley's favorite herbs for each of our menstrual seasons to support us during each time - such as dandelion root, which represents the sun, the moon and the stars.We discuss cramping in periods and if it's normal for us to experience. Looking at it like our bodies are trying to tell us something. Could be a sign of inflammation and trying to remove seed oils from the diet to see if there is a difference. A lovely tip for excess estrogen is eating a raw carrot salad.We discussed Carley's thoughts on oat milk and my experience of feeling anxiety when drinking oat with my coffee.We discuss gorgeous summer infusions and Carley's recipes she shares on her instagram like her spruce tip and nettle vinegar. She discusses using herbs in our vinegars for our food and great for the gut!We talk about what is inspiring Carley at this time which is nature!I am so excited for you to hear this jam packed episode filled with so many health and herbal tips!

Hello everyone! Happy officially summer, I just love the summer season and June is my favourite month. On today's solo episode I wanted to talk about something that has been in my mind for a while that you're not late in your life, you are right on time. I've even written a whole romantic script about this theme, the idea that there is no perfect time for things even when we are frustrated that our desires have not happened yet, that we might be late to the party or life has passed us by. In this episode I talk about how there is no rejection just redirection, having patience in the divine time, how the gold and magic is in the interim, following the whispers to the next right step, how God has a plan for us, quality over quantity and cultivating faith in our bigger vision.I also talk about the parallels of this concept with the career of Taylor Sheridan. I read an article about Taylor Sheridan that talks about his rise through writing - and this really resonated with me as he spoke about the industry letting you know where you will thrive, and how he writes everything himself, it comes out in a flow of consciousness. With his writing he has stuck to his vision, even losing out on HBO and then eventually finding a place at Paramount - but he still sticks to his vision no matter what and this has led him to being able to purchase the four 6's ranch when it was being sold and essentially saving it from being parcelled off - so his life actually turned into the Yellowstone show for real. He made all the prequels to the show as a way to buy the ranch, his mission was greater! - I think about this so much, how we can never fully predict our path, and if he stuck to just acting he may have never built this Yellowstone empire - how his integrity in how he creates really impacts the quality over the shows and let him do so much more in saving the ranch. This episode is all about belief and faith in a greater plan, putting trust into God's vision and listening to the moment by moment guidance. I hope this episode resonated with you! If you feel called to leave a rating and review it really helps spread the word about the podcast!www.topangamoon.com@topanga_moon@anaalic

By focusing on your own magnetism you are in the liberation of doing things your own way! When we are in a state of magnetism we are in our unique genius. When we try to be like others it almost acts like a block, your specific energy field has a unique vibration and when we compare or try to do or be like others we are trying to alter our own magnetic field, therefore it may work momentarily but it's not a sustainable long term expression. Being a conscious creator is being in the flow of magnetism. The best way I create more magnetism is to meditate every morning and focus on the energy I emit. Also dressing as my most magnetic self, being confident and owning my self concept identity, and doing things I love or however your human design is created. Let's all vibrate more magnetism! Listen to this episode to be inspired to raise your vibration and magnetize everything to you in your own unique way. @topanga_moon@anaalic

My second part of manifesting with self concept is all about the things I realized during the process of consciously working on a new self concept. This is the part you get to dig into what comes up for you and see what belief systems are still running the show. I believe it's going to be different for different areas of your life, I mostly talk about my work on shifting a new self concept in my career. Here are the 5 main takeaways I found within myself that may inspire you to look deeper while practicing this work. 1) My fear of being seen/criticized really came forward. 2) Comparison still loves to creep in and it is tied to my fear of criticism/being seen. 3) The noise of the world is so very loud and those low vibes can really take hold. 4) When its working life feels so juicy, so expansive and so free. 5) You're always manifesting so you can never get it wrong, this is a lifelong journey. And to see it more as getting to the next level.If you are loving the podcast and meditations on the podcast, please consider leaving a rating and review on iTunes!

Happy Spring!!! I am so excited we are now in spring and the energy is shifting. I have a fun new solo episode for you today on the podcast all about manifesting with self concept work. In this episode I explain what self concept is and how we can use it to manifest effortlessly. I also share the ways in which I tailored the self concept work to work with my current belief systems. This is a different way to approach self concept way that works with the way I see energy and my own experiences with manifesting. In this episode I discuss:The book psycho cyberneticsKnowing that we are energetic beings and we create our realityHow self concept work is similar to timeline jumping, all about aligning with the version of yourself that already has what you desire. Using a different method of self concept work by giving myself a timeframe for it. Including my own human design with the self concept practices. Practicing everyday through meditation, dressing as my higher self, and using affirmations towards my goals. How I am still a skeptic within the spiritual community and how I use that knowledge to alter my experience with the self concept work. Eliminating or minimizing the resistance. Finding what triggers resistance in me and using that knowledge to divert my energy away. For me this looks like less time on instagram to not fall into the comparison trap. How being busy helps with manifestation practices. Create instead of consume. We are creators here on this planet, so when we are creating the universe loves to reward us for that creation. If we consume too much we are just taking on the energy of what we are seeing.And so much more!!! I hope you love this episode and let me know if you tried the self concept method for manifestation. new website coming soon: www.topangamoon.com@topanga_moon@anaalicHappy New Moon!

Super charge your dreams with this full moon in virgo meditation. We not only have the full moon but saturn is now moving into pisces. Saturn is the planet of structure and rules and it is now moving into the dreamy and flowy river of pisces, a little friction with the two very different energies, one wants boundaries and the other is boundless. We can use our creativity in this time to enhance our dreams and combine the structure with art and intuition. In this meditation we will explore the artistic side and call in the structures needed to create our dreams in big ways. For this we will be transporting to a victorian beach house in Mendocino California in the Pacific Ocean. The boundless energy of the ocean will assist is creating momentum for those big dreams

It's a mindset liberation on the podcast today! I am so excited to share this interview on the podcast, this isn't your average chat on mindset work because we explore these concepts at the edge! Does free will exist if we believe in destiny, what about timeline jumping, are there multiple realities at the same time and how is mindset work still counter culture? We ask the big questions and we discover new realms in todays podcast with Andrea from Garden State Guide. Here are some gems from the interview:We discuss my obsession with old houses and the downfalls of house flipping and how that relates to our wellness industry (quicker is not always better)How liberating it is that you can tap into neuroplasticity and how you can change things. How mindset work is still counter culture. If it was mainstream we would all be living in full alignment all the time.The way human design can give us a language and road map to living in alignment. Your reality will only reflect what you hold in your subconscious! The power of choice to witness the fear and witness the resistance. Talk about the wellness industry, does mind healthiest superseed the physical ?Open to the possibility that everything comes from the mind and allowing for the mystery of life when it comes to wellness. We discuss timeline jumping. A fascinating concept of tapping into the energetics of the you that already exists that you want to become. Quantum entanglement, multiple realities and aliens and God. What turned on in Andrea to allow her to fully feel the embodiment in order to timeline jump her dream to move to Vancouver. We talk about niching down and how it doesn't work for us and why we chose different routes. Andrea gives amazing guidance to a different way of looking at the niche Taking what you see and passing it through your own internal guidance system. “Your desire is divine expression” and so much more!!!I hope you love this cosmic conversation today and can start to dive into some of the questions we pondered! If you loved this episode share it with friends or leave a review, it really helps the podcast grow. @topanga_moon@anaalic@garden.state.guidewww.gardenstateguide.com
