Tales of Recovery ~ Tending to the Body

Recuperando la Vida - Las Relaciones de la Vida

Tales of Recovery Why we DO DEATH CAFE RETREATS?

A few reasons why we work with the reality and gift of death, so we can LIVE a more conscious and sweeter life.

Tales of Recovery ~ Numbing, Cultural Anesthesia and Trauma

Numbing, Cultural Anesthesia and Trauma- one of the top three obstacles that get in the way of healing by SENSING and allowing emotions to flow through our bodies. 

 

How are you anesthesising? Is it worth it? I did it for years an years, an appropiate response to the pain I coud not handle back in my teens and early 20's.

I can say I am somwehat on the other side now and life is SO much better when I FEEL. All of it.  Even the scary intense emotions, 

There ca not be joy without sorrow, there can not be light without dark.  Our society hands out pain and anesthesizing pills like they were freaking cotton candy at the circus.  Could we stop and analyze this disempowerment for a bit? Can we take our humanity back? I think so.  Just think exactly WHO benefits from you being addicted to numbing? 

Let's grab all the compassion that we can and slowly, little by little, come back to our birthright of embodiment.  You can do it. We can do it as a village.

 

Open heart living is for the Courageous.  And we are all Courageous. 

Tales of Recovery~ Grief, Addiction and The Disctractions we use.

Grief and Addiction and Distractions and WHY are we not doing the work? 

It is not "us" vs "them" when it comes to addiction and the stigma that arises from criminalizing mental health issues.  We are all one. We all need to heal collectively.

We can stop avoiding the pain and grieve in community so we can HEAL and in turn feel more Alive.  Join me at South Park Yoga and Wellness this Friday August 5th, 2022 at 7:00PM for a Grief Workshop and Community Circle where we will learn so much about the obstacles we've learned and the distractions we use to avoid the deep and beautiful work of practicing grief.  

 

The Organs Weep the Tears our Eyes Refuse to Shed...

Recuperando la Vida con el Dr. Gabriel Bertona

Recuperando la Vida con mi amigo el Dr. Gabriel Bertona, un médico poco convencional.

Gabriel nos platica su camino de sanador integral, con tantas escuelas como medicina académica  en la UNAM,  Neurolingüística, Medicina China, Herbolaría, Biomagnetismo, Danzante del Sol, Yoga  y Qi Gong ante otras.  

Mas que Doctor, Gabriel es un revolucionario de la autonomía y responsabilidad de cada uno de nosotros para cambiar no solo nuestra salud dentro y fuera de la piel, sino también a nuestras comunidades y así dando esperanza al camino de la paz.

Platicamos de la cultura de la irresponsabilidad, el mercado que vende fantasías, las enfermedades que podemos evadir siendo conscientes de nuestros hábitos, y de cómo ir construyendo la posibilidad de ser libres y autónomos- que aunque todos nacemos con este regalo, aun así se tiene que construir.

Gracias Gabriel por compartir tu tiempo, pasión y luz con nosotros.  Que lo disfruten y que sea de beneficio a todos los seres que escuchen.

Tales of Recovery ~ Making Sense vs THE Felt Sense

With anxiety and depression taking it's toll on our humanity, perhaps we can turn to the FELT sense instead of trying to make sense~ 

How our breathing, ancestral body practices and REALLY doing the work can help empower our selves (therefore our kids, families, friends) to realize we can jave agency over our bodies and minds. 

 

 

Recuperando la Vida con Lunita Velásquez

Agradecida con mi amiga Lunita  que regresa al Podcast a platicar de este gran tema que viene siendo los patrones que heredamos como Mexican@s...

¿Que soltamos y con que nos quedamos?  Como madres, parejas, hijas, amigas y demás- nuestra cultura y herencia es grande, rica y poderosa. ¿Pero como la vivimos con conciencia y dejando lo que ya no sirve?

Platicamos temas como el colonialismo, las autoexigencias que nos enferman, las religiones controladoras basadas en la culpa y el miedo, la medicina ancestral que quedo escondida y la conexión con el Gran Misterio.

Vámonos dando cada vez más permiso de evolucionar para vivir desde el Amor y la Fuerza del Corazón!  

Tales of Recovery -There is a War Outside because there is a War Inside

There is a War Outside Because there is a War Inside.
Grief.
Pain.
Oppressive Systems that do not work.
May we wake up and reach out to our communities. CREATE communities that are open to heal and serve one another.
We can blame the gov or the church until we run out of breath- but that's all we'll be doing: blaming,
We hold tremendous power.
It is up to us.
