Welcome to Episode 23 of Awakening to More. Trust the Flames with Katie Delimon - Yoga & Meditation Teacher and Mindset mentor and Author of Trust the Flames.  In this episode, we explore:  Transformation through Meditation Vipassana Mediation Retreats Self-Exploration and Healing Embracing Mindfulness Self-Compassion  Living with Purpose Navigating Emotional Responses Unity and Connection Finding Moments of Joy Katie Delimon is wildly passionate about empowering others with a new awareness so they live a life of choice and intention rather than reaction and distraction. She believes our bodies and minds are desperately seeking ways in which to slow down and that understanding ourselves, through a harmonious body-mind connection, is the beginning of true ease, inner peace and wisdom. Katie's decision to embark on a journey of self-exploration and healing was prompted by a realization that she needed to address suppressed emotions and trauma. Leaving behind a lifestyle of excess in New York City, she sought solace through meditation and mindfulness. Katie's journey highlights the transformative power of meditation and mindfulness practices. Despite initial skepticism, her experiences during meditation retreats led to profound shifts in her physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Realizing that she needed to address trauma and repressed emotions led her to decide to set out on a path of self-discovery and healing. Her life journey began in New Jersey and continued through West Virginia, NYC, and sunny LA before love brought her to Australia. Today she lives along the winding Brisbane River with her twin flame and fur baby.

She has been a lawyer since 2001 and has transformed from being an exhausted perfectionist workaholic to now living a life of delicious chaos, juggling mum life alongside her own legal business and her spiritual wellness business.  In March 2012, while hanging out the washing, Alicia started to spontaneously channel one of her Spirit Guides, an Ascended Master called Goenga who spoke to her using her own voice (like Whoopi Goldberg in the movie, Ghost). This was the start of her channeling journey.  Six years later, Alicia pushed through her massive fear about what people would think and honoured her calling. She came out of the ‘spiritual closet' and shared with her friends and family that she is a Channeler. She now channels a team of guides and angels and has founded the Global Soul Centre. Alicia loves to help people to thrive, enjoy life more and reconnect with their soul and remember who they really are - eternal pure love and magnificent light beings.  Alicia has written a book called, PURE ENERGY - The Busy Women's Energy Guide to Thrive.

Melissa Lucashenko is a Miles Franklin award winning author of Bundjalung and European heritage. Her novels include Killing Darcy, Mullumbimby and Too Much Lip. Today we're going to be discovering her latest, Edenglassie. In the 1850's Meanjin/Brisbane is a mix of people from across the world, some transported for hard time, others drawn to the region for economic gain. Since the invaders arrived the local Yagara people have viewed them with suspicion and curiosity, unsure whether they might ever be able to regain their ancestral lands. Mulanyin has come to the area now known as Edenglassie and there he has discovered the beautiful Nita. Torn between his love and his home Mulanyin must navigate his path into manhood and the fraught times he finds himself in. In 2024 Meanjin/Brisbane is on the verge of two hundred years if settler colonial occupation. That might mean more to Granny Eddie if she wasn't stuck in the hospital waiting for whatever it is these doctors do. Eddie is more than a hundred years old and she's got a few stories to tell about the city. But that doesn't mean she'll give up her secrets easily and certainly not to the first white guy who asks.  Edengalssie weaves two tales separated by time but bound by place. Melissa Lucashenko takes us back to the beginnings of the occupied lands around Maiwar, which we now know as the Brisbane River. She reminds us that the land was not unoccupied and in fact these are the traditional lands of the Jagera and Turrball people.  Against the backdrop of struggle for dominance we meet Mulanyin and Nita. what follows is ostensibly a love story set to the rhythm of a land that is poised for violence.  Mulanyin is certain of his love for Nita but he is also eager to prove himself and unsure of the ways of the white people who are ignorant of the law and the land. Mulanyin and Nita will pursue their love but they must do so in a world that may not want them to succeed. All these stories are so much history to the residents of Granny Eddie's world but she knows the truth. That doesn't mean she's going to tell it straight. As Granny Eddie's tales of early Brisbane bring her fame and notoriety she watches her niece Winona and her Doctor Johnny play out their own courting rituals. Johnny's only recently discovered his own blak heritage and that won't fly for Winona. She's sick of people claiming heritage they haven't earned and isn't going to make it easy on him. Edenglassie is a thought provoking, disarming and at times hilarious novel. Through the contrasting narratives Lucashenko effectively overthrows simplistic views of early colonial interventions and reclaims the story on behalf of the people whose land was stolen. She gives us a time when perhaps history may have taken a different direction and allows us to understand the vicissitudes of time and power that shaped the world we live in today. Fast forward to 2024 and Lucashenkpo reminds of the very real and ongoing history those events have created. Through Granny Eddie and particularly in the sparring between Winona and Johnny we see the ongoing pain and struggle to reconcile the past with a present and a future that does not tell the truth. Edenglassie is a tremendous novel and one well worth the reading.

But the girl has a dream. A vision of a life as an artist of international acclaim. A life outside the grip of the Brisbane underworld drug queen 'Lady' Flora Box. A life of love with the boy who's waiting for her on the bridge that stretches across a flooding, deadly river. A life beyond the bullet that has her name on it. And now that the storm clouds are rising, there's only one person who can help make her dreams come true. That person is Lola and she carries all the answers. But to find Lola, the girl with no name must first do one of the hardest things we can ever do. She must look in the mirror.    LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Trent Dalton Author Record-breaking, award-winning and bestselling author Trent Dalton returns with a big-hearted, gritty, magical and moving new novel, Lola in the Mirror.A girl and her mother are on the lam. They've been running for sixteen years, from police and the monster they left in their kitchen with a knife in his throat. They've found themselves a home inside an orange 1987 Toyota HiAce van with four flat tyres parked in a scrapyard by the edge of the Brisbane River.Lola in the Mirror is a big, blackly funny, violent, heartbreaking and beautiful novel of love, fate, life and death, and all the things we see when we look in the mirror.TRENT DALTON ON LOLA IN THE MIRROR AND WHY HE WROTE IT:‘There is this incredibly personal and intimate and sometimes terrifying thing that each one of us does every day ... I'm talking about looking into the mirror. That deeply confronting moment when it's all quiet and still and you look deep inside yourself and see all your irretrievable past, all of your tricky present and all your possible futures. I wanted to write a book that felt like that.It's an extremely current story about a country neck-deep in a national housing crisis. It's the story of my city, Brisbane, in the lead-up to hosting an Olympic Games in a state where homelessness has risen by three times the national average. It's the story of the seventeen years I spent writing social affairs journalism across this country. Trent Dalton is a dual Walkley Award winning journalist, who also happens to be an exquisite novelist. 2018's Boy Swallows Universe took out the awards season – and the hearts of readers – All Our Shimmering Skies has been hugely successful as has Love Stories an ode to love “This latest book Lola in The Mirror is filled with stories told to me by people sleeping rough across my city, the people living in the nooks and the crannies and the cracks of life. It's the product of sitting on a street corner for three months, watching people and asking them about love and loss and belonging – my book Love Stories was in fact a research project for this new novel. Lola in the Mirror is a love story, first. But it's also a story of art, crime, mystery and, most of all, life.' His books have sold over 1.2 million copies in Australia alone. Boy Swallows Universe has been adapted to a smash-hit theatrical production..soon to be a series .. more on that later Deborah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/what.ive.learnt/Mind, Film and Publishing: https://www.mindfilmandpublishing.com/Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/what-ive-learnt/id153556330Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3TQjCspxcrSi4yw2YugxBkBuzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1365850

Our mini-series on Maritime Asutralia continues with an episode dedicated to Brisbane's fabulous dry dock. The dock now sits in the grounds of the Queensland Maritime Museum on a bend on the south side of the Brisbane River and contains the magnificent historical vessel HMAS Diamantina, a river class frigate built in the 1940s, and the Carpentaria, a lightship built in 1917 which provided a crucial service warning mariners of dangerous shoal waters off Fraser Island and off the western approaches tot he Torres Strait. The dock itself, the third oldest in Australia, and built in 1876, offers a fascinating insight to Australian maritime history, and in particular shipbuilding and maritime trade in Queensland. To find out more Dr Sam Willis spoke with Russell Cobine, a retired shipwright with a lifetime of experience working in dry docks. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This new book considers how Australians have provided water and sewerage for growing, sprawling urban centres. In this land of drought and flooding rains, we may need to rethink water use strategies, including embracing centuries of Aboriginal knowledge, seeing water as a resource to be conserved, rather than wasted or exploited. Panel Dr. Margaret Cook is an environmental historian who specialises in the history of ‘natural' disasters in Australia, especially floods. The history of floods in the Brisbane River catchment was the subject of her PhD (UQ 2018) and is now a book, A River with a City Problem: A History of Brisbane Floods (UQ Press, 2019). Lionel Frost is an associate professor in the Department of Economics, and Head of the Monash Business School (Peninsula Campus). He is author of several books and articles on Australian and US urban history and Pacific Rim history, including contributions to the Cambridge History of Australia (2013), Cambridge World History (2015), and Cambridge Economic History of Australia (2015). He is current president of the Economic History Society of Australia and New Zealand. Dr. Ruth Morgan is an environmental historian, whose prize-winning work on the histories of water and climate has been generously funded by the Australian Research Council and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. She is a lead author in Working Group II of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's Sixth Assessment Report. Martin Shanahan is Professor of Economic and Business History at the University of South Australia and Elof Hansson Visiting Professor in International Business and Trade at Gothenburg University, Sweden.

So, Mary went to Brisbane. You might not be as excited about that as she was, but luckily Bluey's Brisbane duo Lou and Justin were just as excited!  And while this crossover is not quite a Bluey tour of Brisbane - as Lou points out, not many Bluey episodes happen at night! - it's a comprehensive tour of three Bluey-obsessed heads, via plenty of places in Brisbane that everyone should want to go! Oh, actually on location under the Story Bridge on the banks of the Brisbane River!  (We love Justin and Lou, and they've got a great back catalogue of fun eps focused on different Brisbane suburbs, plus interviews with Joe Brumm, Joff Bush, Dave McCormack, Dan Brumm and more. So dive in and binge the Bluey love - and don't forget to follow Bluey's Brisbane on Facebook and Insta too!)  ++ Gotta Be Done is ex-journos and Melbourne mums Kate McMahon and Mary Bolling, as we deep-dive every Bluey episode, with plenty of detours into mama life, childhood memories, and everything else we're bingeing, too!

In the depths of February 1893, the banks of the Brisbane River, as it's wont to do, broke and flooded the town – three times within two weeks. These three major floods in one month led to February 1893 being labelled Black February. Another flood also broke banks in June, but by then the city was recovered from the initial floods, making it a little easier to bear.In the floodwaters, which have been known to host such creatures as bull sharks, crocodiles and other dangerous beasts in Australia, something began preying on the animals that remained in the fields and paddocks around the riverbanks of Lowood. At first, it was supposed that some of the released crocodiles or sharks could be responsible, but the creatures seemed to only vanish at night, and were taken from the riverbank – not while swimming.Final episode of Spooktober 2022. Matthew is sad.

Cuando una ciudad toma el nombre de su río, el idilio fluvial está garantizado. La capital del estado australiano de Queensland se identifica profundamente con el suyo, un ancho cauce navegable que traza elegantes meandros sobrevolados por multitud de puentes. Lejos de dividir, el Brisbane River conecta sus dos orillas. En la norte, la pedagoga brisbanense Hannah Campos nos muestra el CBD, un pujante centro financiero donde encontramos monumentos tan señeros como el ayuntamiento, el imponente edificio de Treasury Building o el parlamento estatal. También descubrimos los jardines botánicos, el animado y cultural distrito de South Bank, en la margen derecha. Nos empapamos de la vida de sus variopintos barrios, desde el fiestero Fortitude Valley hasta el abrupto Kangaroo Point, marcado por unos acantilados de vértigo. Seguimos el curso del río hasta su desembocadura para conocer la bahía Moreton, famosa por las dos alargadas y paradisíacas islas que protegen las aguas costeras de Brisbane. Para hacer surf y disfrutar de las playas existen dos opciones: las cercanas poblaciones de Sunshine Coast y Gold Coast. También nos acompañan en la ruta otros residentes: el periodista mexicano Allan Sosa, la profesora chilena Patricia Braun y los españoles Juan Campos, Susana Fernández, José Juan Florenciano e Irene Lalana.

The Brisbane River, and in particular the area around Port of Brisbane, fishes particularly well for quality threadfin salmon, with metre fish relatively common. We've covered this specis and location before on the ALF Podcast on a number of occassions.... but never from a kayak. So this is a very cool episode! It's also a fitting way to announce the kayak fishing masterclass that Luke has put together for Team Doc Lures members! Whether you're a novice trying to get started, or a seasoned yakker wanting advanced tips, it's all in this series. Current TDL members have access to the first lesson, with new lessons going up on the website each week for the next 5 weeks. Not a Team Doc Lures member?

Reviving Indigenous languages through song is the driving force for Rochelle Pitt-Watson's music. Her Quandamooka and Meriam heritage underlie all of her songs, and she hopes that performing them brings some relief from the stresses of these post-covid times. Rochelle is one of the First Nations artists taking centre stage at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre in May for Clancestry—A Celebration of Country. She tells us on Streets of Your Town about the significance of being part of a festival that showcases and celebrates First Nations artists, on land that for thousands of years has been a meeting and cultural place for Indigenous people of this land next to the Brisbane River, or Maiwar.

In our recent chat with artist Debra Hood, she spoke about how one of her artworks of Brisbane was used as a wrap for one of the CityCats - the iconic vessels that transport people along the Brisbane River.. You've seen the CityCats in Bluey - in episodes like Spy Game and Ice Cream. Debra mentioned how much she'd like to see some Bluey wrapped CityCats - in both Bluey and Bingo versions. One Brisbane mum was way ahead of us though! Madonna Stephens lives in the riverside suburb of Hawthorne and saw first hand the devastation following the Brisbane Floods of 2022, in particular the damage to the CityCat fleet. As a way of inspiring Brisbane kids, helping them recover after the floods and to bring in tourist revenue, Madonna has suggested that we do indeed wrap some of our beloved CityCats in Bluey and Bingo attire. Madonna currently has a petition before Brisbane City Council, asking that council look at this option - you can https://epetitions.brisbane.qld.gov.au/petition/view/pid/1128?fbclid=IwAR0jfKiUENVq_BwZfHW596jUUzRHy0WD4s6-CIbpNWBCBvtt_HqCISYBasY (sign the petition here) (active until June 1, 2022).

After days of torrential rain and what meteorologists termed a rain bomb, many parts of Brisbane went under as the Brisbane River and many suburban creeks flooded. It's the most severe flooding in Brisbane since 2011, but this time around what caught many locals out was just how fast the water rose. Lou lives in the suburb of Oxley which is in Brisbane's south west - it was devastated by the floods in 2011, and while I couldn't get in to speak to her in person because of the flooding, I managed to get her on the phone to chat about what Oxley was going through. There were plenty of good news stories as well, like the cows rescued from a shed roof by a group of kayakers. Bonus fact - Oxley is one of Dave McCormack aka Bandit Heeler's favourite Brissy suburbs - we know because he dropped that factoid when we got the chance to interview him last year.

This podcast is inspired by a blue dog, so it seems fitting that in this episode we've found a dog that plays the blues! We've set up the card table in https://www.brisbanekids.com.au/orleigh-park-west-end/ (Froggy Park) (Orleigh Park) by the banks of the Brisbane River in West End, as seen in the See Saw episode of Bluey. (The park is also known as the Hill End Terrace Playground). The suburb was also featured in the Markets episode where Bluey and Indy run amok at the https://daviesparkmarket.com.au/ (Davies Park Markets)! Although West End has changed significantly over the past 20 years, the suburb still retains it's bohemian feel, and is still home to many musicians and artists. Donnie Burke, aka https://www.facebook.com/blinddogdonnieblues/ (Blind Dog Donnie) is one of West End's most beloved residents. He's a world class blues guitarist who has shared the stage with legends like BB King, and was well known for his work with the Delta Rhythm Kings. We caught up with Donnie in the jam studio of fellow blues musician https://www.facebook.com/TheDillionJamesBand (Dillion James), and the pair shared their experiences of living and playing in the 'little village' that is West End.
