As promised, Ginny Jablonski joins me for Part 2 of my foray into soul agreements and karmic contracts. But this time we go even deeper into egregores, ancestral issues, agreements made in past lives, and other elements that might be stopping us from moving forward. And if you missed it, here’s Part 1 of Soul Agreements. Ginny and I have a lot of these conversations privately, and we agreed it would be a good idea to share our exchanges publicly. So get ready for more Ginny & Jini podcasts coming your way! I have studied and discussed these esoteric, spiritual, or metaphysical phenomena with many people (and animals) over the years. But I really appreciate Ginny’s pure heart, her own highly perceptive abilities, and her huge depth of experience working with unresolved issues of the soul with thousands of clients. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did. You can click the PLAY button below, or listen on Apple or Spotify. Remember to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode! Listen Now About Ginny Jablonski Ginny has studied multiple human and animal energy healing techniques. She is an intuitive animal communicator, clairvoyant, and energy medicine practitioner. For several years, Ginny eagerly immersed herself in the indigenous teachings of the late Benny LeBeau, also known as Rainbow Thunder Heart or “Bavado Tatun Corazon” and traveled with Bavado to study our sacred relationship with all life from his many medicine wheel ceremonies and lectures celebrated across the world. After Bavado's death, Ginny continued her shamanic studies with a Mayan Elder, Grandmother Flordemayo, and Jan Engles-Smith of the LightSong School of 21st Century Shamanism. Ginny first traveled to Australia in 2014, and was introduced to the healing paradigm and LORE of the Aboriginal people. She continues studying Aboriginal Healing and LORE today with Steve Richards, a native Aboriginal-Australian. Ginny is also a Certified Bio-Well Practitioner (trained by Dr. Tiffany Barsotti), Certified Heart Math Facilitator, and has studied with world renowned healers such as Dr. V.

In this video, Colleen and Robyn welcome Lauri Shainsky.  You can experience some different Shamanic Sounds. Shamanic Sound with a metal bowl and crystal wand. “Raised by redwoods” in Northern California, Lauri's formative years spent at camp set her trajectory for a life committed to Nature. She began facilitating mountain camp adventures in 1978, during which she ceremonially vowed to commit her life to serving others and Earth. Lauri's time studying ecology (BA from UCLA, MS from UC Davis & Ph.D from OSU) expanded her insights and awe of Nature and Her profoundly intricate perfection. Lauri's sacred vow led her to start a nonprofit organization teaching young people and adults about ecology in the outdoors. There she enjoyed teaching birding by ear and bird language, animal tracking, terrestrial and stream ecology. Her Portland State University professorship in education and service-learning expanded innovations in outdoor education. In 1998 Lauri dove deeply into spirituality at LightSong School of Shamanic Studies, along with Michael Harner, Tom Cowan, and Betsy Bergstrom. She furthered her sound related studies with Tom Kenyon and Jonathan Goldman.  For two decades, Lauri carried the songs for LightSong, taught shamanic sound healing and became one of the primary elders for the school. She continues to teach courses, lead ceremony, and see clients.  You can find her at:  http://shamanicsoundhealing.com. Lauri has a rich body of shamanic sound work that seeks to help people curate their own spiritual development, healing, and transformation. Her spirit-guided sound art contributes to shifts in our physical and metaphysical lives, and provides soundtracks for personal ceremony and celebration. She has recorded 6 albums and will be recording her 7th one this month, for those who are supporting others in the processes of dying. Many of her sound art pieces can be found on:  http://Soundcloud.com/redstonesong https://www.youtube.com/@soulnoteshamanicsoundheali3321   *DISCLAIMER* This episode is not a substitute for seeking professional medical care but is offered for relaxation and stress reduction which support the body's natural healing capabilities.
