Is it possible for us to raise healthy kids, but we haven't dealt with our own trauma yet? Does this make us bad? No. We all have wounds, and we're all doing our best to regulate ourselves so we could not impart the trauma to our children. But the more we heal, the more reliable, the more consistent and the more available we become to our children.Joining Michelle today is the founder of PRISMA, Greg Wieting.

There's nothing broken, bad or wrong. This is something hurt that needs loving intention.

Lauren Walker has been teaching yoga and meditation since 1997. She created Energy Medicine Yoga while teaching at Norwich University, the oldest private military college in the country.  She is frequently quoted and cited as an expert in Yoga Journal, Mantra Magazine, and Yoga Digest, and a feature article about her work was recently published in The New York Times. Her two previous books, The Energy Medicine Yoga Prescription and Energy Medicine Yoga: Amplify the Healing Power of Your Yoga Practice, both won Nautilus Silver Awards for Best Mind/Body publication. In 2016, she was named one of the top 100 most influential yoga teachers in America. Her latest book, The Energy to Heal, is an empowering and reassuring guide for our stressful and traumatic times. Dawson wrote an endorsement for Lauren's book, The Energy to Heal: "In this book Lauren Walker eloquently reminds us that our bodies have a remarkable ability to heal, that they contain boundless energy, and that we can harness it intentionally. She provides many vivid examples of how we instinctively turn to energy, using interventions as simple as massaging a sore muscle or humming a soothing tune. Yet energy techniques can also be used to unblock the trauma we all experience. It's stored in your body's muscles, organs and connective tissue as energy. Unless we release that trauma, it weighs down both our bodies and minds. The book's central chapters are based on the Chinese medicine Five Elements model, and each contains practical exercises to free old energy and refresh the new. Energy needs to move, and the exercises the author provides show you how to open up space in your body for that movement. Because each of us has so much control over our personal energy, it's the first place to focus on when our intention is to heal a disease, manifest abundance, or cultivate happiness. This inspiring book shows you how."

Joining me in this episode is author, mentor, and yoga teacher Octavia Raheem. We talk about her new book: Pause Rest Be: Stillness Practices for Courage in Times of Change. A work of wisdom guiding us to rest. Octavia is a beautiful storyteller and a profound guide teaching the importance of rest. Octavia was living her everyday life like she was an ultra-marathon runner. Her desire to constantly be better and better, to do more, and never ask for help lead to life threatening burnout which revealed an awakening to the importance of rest. Her beautiful book honors the changes and spaces in your life with purposeful rest and reflection. In this episode we chat about how the fear of rest is the fear of meeting the higher Self, an opportunity to discover ourselves. And what vows are we making to ourselves that are rooted in unhealthy relationships that only silence can reveal. Highlights from this episode include: - How maintaining a commitment to the ritual of rest and writing is transformative, and how transformation is a process and process is a circular nature of beginnings and endings. - Burnout. How this leads to the failure of the body functioning optimally. - We talk about how the original fear of rest is the fear of the pause, from which awkward silence arises. - The difference between a restorative class and yoga nidra. - Restoring your body, mind, and spirit amid change is an act of courage, empowerment, and hope.

Deirdre Hade is a Modern Day Mystic. Dedicated to healing those who have suffered from trauma, pain, and loss, Deirdre founded the non profit organization The Foundation for Radiance which has worked closely with the Women's Prison Association of New York and Nuevo Amanecer (Sister Trinidad Lopez's program for women rescued from abuse and sexual slavery in East Los Angeles). She designed My Angel Pillow with Kellee White to bring the healing comfort of angels to children in hospitals all across the country. A keeper of the World Peace Flame and founding member of the Association for Transformational Leaders of Southern California, Deirdre is a member of Jack Canfield's Transformational Leadership Council, an organization of 150 world leaders in the field of personal transformation (including John Grey and Marianne Williamson). Deirdre's teachings on the Power of Meditation are featured alongside the writings of other modern-day spiritual luminaries such as Neale Donald Walsch and Don Miguel Ruiz. She has been honored by Dr. Iziz Fuqua and the Circles of Light, receiving the F.L.O.W.E.R. award for her pioneering work in energy healing. She has also been knighted by the Sovereign Order of the Knights Hospitallers of St. John of Jerusalem for her humanitarian work. A profound sensitive and psychic, Deirdre headed off to college at 17, determined to get a degree in anthropology. A chance meeting with Joseph Campbell, American mythologist and author of Hero with a Thousand Faces changed the course of her life. “Don't go into anthropology,” he told her. “It will ruin your gift. You already have what we are all looking for.” That same auspicious year, Deirdre was given a photocopy of the then unknown book, A Course in Miracles. For months, she voraciously studied the texts. This, along with her mentors in the southern gospel churches, gave her innately scientific mind a spiritual foundation. (Her parents were research scientists in biochemistry and physiology). At 16 she and her mother had a spiritual awakening allowing her mother with terminal breast cancer to live 13 years longer than expected. This became the foundational work for Deirdre's Radiance Healing and Meditation System. Deirdre went on to have a successful dance career working with Robert Joffery, founder of The Joffery Ballet NYC, Frank Bourman of the Royal Ballet of England to name a few. She founded an inner city dance program for disadvantaged youth in the Memphis / Mid-South Region. Her Company, Celebrations of the Sacred, was a pioneer in the field of sacred dance. Deirdre's inner gifts and search for self-discovery brought her under the mentorship of elders and teachers in the mystical Christian tradition, the “I Am Presence” teachings, the Hindu Vedic tradition and Mussar and Lurianic Kabbalah, which she studied for over 20 years under the tutelage of two esteemed Rabbis in Los Angeles. Deirdre is overwhelmingly grateful to her mentor in personal psychology and women's' studies former head of USC Psychology dept. the late Dr. Lawanda Katzman Staenberg. In 2004 Deirdre founded Radiance Healing and Meditation now simply called The Radiance Journey, a system of energy healing and mystical wisdom from the ancient knowledge of the Kabbalah's Tree of Life. To date, Deirdre has given Radiance personal healing sessions and Radiance Journey Retreats to thousands at The Omega Institute, The ACADEMI of Life, Donna Karan's Urban Zen Center and Deepak Homebase in NYC, The Evolutionary Healing Institute in Miami, Florida, The Chopra Center at La Costa , Temple Hayes' First Unity Spiritual Campus, Canyon Ranch Resort and Montecito's own Sacred Space. In 2018 she will be a main presenter at the Kripalu Center in Stockbridge, Mass. Her Radiance Pure Energy Program for energetic clearing and healing has been sold in over 132 countries. Deirdre's coffee table gift book with photography by Endre Balogh, The (not so) Little Book of Surprises, released in 2016, was presented by Donna Karan to a standing-room-only audience at her Urban Zen Center in New York City. She has appeared on television and radio throughout the country, and her articles have been published in numerous journals, including Modern Mom, Mantra Magazine, LA Yoga, Wisdom Magazine, RewireMe, BeliefNet and Light of Consciousness Magazine. She and her husband William Arntz, creator of the seminal film, “What the Bleep do We Know!?,” have created The Mystic and the Physicist: An Exploration into the Vanishing Point Where Science and Spirituality Meet presented to standing room only at ABC Home Deepak Homebase, NYC. The mother of two children, Leilah Katherine Franklin and Eric Harel Franklin, (“The two greatest accomplishments of my life!”), in 2014 Deirdre married her great love, William Arntz. Today they live happily ever after in Montecito, California.

From teaching yoga at the White House to presenting at some of the biggest yoga festivals, conferences and Asian Art museums in the world, Amanda infuses the ancient teachings with creativity and joy. Her journey in yoga began in 1994, and she continues to study with many great Indian and Western masters. In 2001, along with her husband, MC YOGI, she founded Yoga Toes Studio in Point Reyes, CA. She has been featured in Yoga International, Origins, Marin Magazine, Happiness + Wellbeing as well as appearing the cover of Yoga Journal and Mantra Magazine.

Amanda's Final Push will remind you that your creativity is an integral part to you having a well-rounded life.   Quotes: “It started with a little seed of curiosity.” “I think there was something about committing to a big project and a big number that helped me get to that flow state.” “I had tears of joy that day that I made a commitment to the goal and I had kept it.” “That sense of curiosity is important to me as an artist.” Links mentioned: Book Tour / Events MC Yogi Youngman Brown on The Pawprint Podcast Connect with Amanda: Website / Facebook / Instagram On the next episode: Chrilz : Website / Instagram Join the discussion in the Facebook group!

She's graced the cover of Yoga Journal, has taught at multiple Wanderlust Festivals, and has been featured in Huff Post, LA Yoga, Mantra Magazine, and more...so basically is cooler than you. Yet, MB is one of the most grounded, humble, just all around rad people you'll meet!

Coby Kozlowski is a modern-day meditation and consciousness guru (though she would never describe herself that way). Ever humble, she’s amassed a lifetime of experience through working with teachers in the yogic, meditative, and consciousness realms over the past 25 years. Now a teacher of teachers, she has appeared on the cover of Yoga Journal and Mantra Magazine, and was named as “one of the 7 yoga teachers who has changed the practice [of yoga]”. Known as a vibrant, well-spoken, relatable, and funny inspirational speaker, workshop leader, and storyteller, she has energy that draws you in and offers tangible nuggets of wisdom that leave you inspired and ready to jump start your life without punishing yourself along the way. I went into this conversation with a list of questions. As it turns out, I only needed one,  “What is meditation?”. Coby’s answer was so engaging, thorough, and thought-provoking, that it took up almost our entire time together. Her approach to meditation is so refreshingly different than what I’ve both learned through practice and read in books and articles, that it left me inspired to want to practice. Normally I think about meditation as something I need to do, I have to do because it’s so good for me, and that I should do more of because of its value to my life. But it’s never really been something I want to do, think I have time for, or look forward to doing. This conversation changed that completely. Some of the topics we discussed: Traditional meditation - a practice originally designed for monks A new context of meditation  - choosing your path, no wrong making The default mode of your brain - focusing on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and why that is important to know in your meditation practice. “No internal spanking.” You’ll have to listen to understand :-) Meditation as a “massage for your soul”, tending to a part of you as you would tend your garden How to get started and what to do in your meditative experience. This was truly a transformative conversation for me - shifting my almost 20-year old belief of the definition and requirements for meditation. Whether you’re an experienced meditator or are giving it a shot for the first time, I guarantee that there is something for you in this conversation. Enjoy! Have a comment, thought, or question? I’d love to hear from you!  Shoot me an email at podcast@wholelifechallenge.com and I’ll do my best (no guarantees) to address your question on the podcast.  

Something I love about young children is that they don't yet have the self-consciousness yet, because they haven't faced much rejection yet, to hold back from simply asking someone to be their friend on the playground. That's how I felt when Tasha Blank and I connected, and the playground was Instagram. The conversation basically went, "Hey I like how you be via your photos and your words, let's be friends." And once I heard her story, I had to have her on the podcast. Today's conversation is the result of a new, innocent, and friendly desire to connect with a kindred soul. We get into altering brain chemistry without using substances, dance as a path to connection, how life is full of maps and it's up to us to discover new territories. This is a really fun one. I know you will discover dormant parts of yourself as you listen and I can't wait to hear what comes up when you do! About Tasha Blank: Founder of New York City's legendary afterwork party The Get Down + force behind the global Deep House Yoga movement, Tasha has been a pioneer of positive club culture for nearly a decade. She creates interactive sonic experiences that catalyze everything from underground warehouse parties and music festivals to morning raves and bass-heavy yoga events, and believes that dance is the quickest path to love in the here + now. Whether bringing in musicians for spontaneous jams at festivals, or collaborating with her performance group The Get Down Crew to create infectiously high energy atmospheres, she works frequently with a wide range of live musicians including cellists, electric violinists, percussionists, full horn sections, beat boxers and MCs. Her work with traditional African musicians has brought polyrhythms to 4 on the floor, and her live layered vocals add a soaring beauty and depth to both her deep minimal and big room tribal sonic journeys.
