Ever wonder why yoga and spirituality emphasize childlikeness? This episode explores how rediscovering children's joy and openness can lead to a happier life, better relationships, and a deeper connection to one's inner potential.

We'll learn valuable lessons from kids, including:

Adaptability: Embrace change and overcome fear with a helpful yoga practice.

Communication: Express yourself authentically, just like your 2-year-old grandson!

Finding Joy: Rediscover the simple pleasures in life through meditation.

Being Fearless: Learn to pick yourself up after a fall and keep moving forward.

We'll also explore the concept of "guilelessness" - the honesty and lack of cunning that children possess. Learn how letting go of the need to please others and embracing your true self can lead to a calmer mind and happier heart.

Stay tuned for practical tools like:

Spinal breathing exercises to overcome fear

Meditation practices to deal with shame

Join us as we unlock the secrets to healing and rediscover the joy of being your authentic self!

Welcome to today's podcast, where we explore a fascinating and sometimes daunting topic: Soul Loss. Have you ever felt like a part of you is missing or experienced unresolved childhood trauma? Do you have memory gaps or feel disconnected from your life and purpose? If any of this resonates with you, stay tuned.

We'll discuss how trauma, whether emotional, mental, or physical, can lead to soul loss, where a part of our vital essence separates from us to survive the pain. This can result in feelings of incompleteness and disconnection, often unnoticed but deeply impactful.

Symptoms of soul loss include chronic depression, PTSD, memory gaps, and a perpetual sense of being stuck. Both psychology and ancient shamanic traditions recognize this phenomenon as a natural defense mechanism against unbearable pain.

Cathy Lee shares her journey of discovering a long-buried trauma and undergoing a soul retrieval process, which brought profound healing and a sense of wholeness. Reintegrating lost soul parts can lead to feeling grounded, energized, and fully alive, offering numerous benefits like improved clarity, vitality, and a profound sense of belonging.

Join us as we explore how to reclaim your lost soul parts and live your highest potential through meditation, nature, and other healing practices. Let's embark on this journey to reconnect with our true selves.

Welcome to the Aging & Spirituality podcast, where we talk about realizing the higher potential inside of you that has yet to be discovered.

I'm thrilled to introduce our guest today, Dr. Michelle May, founder of Am I Hungry? - a platform that guides you toward rediscovering your innate connection with food. Dr. May believes that we are all born with an instinctive relationship with food, a connection that gets clouded as we navigate the complexities of life.

In this episode, Michelle takes us on a journey back to our roots, where, as children, we intuitively recognize hunger and fullness without guilt. She enlightens us on the profound benefits of mindful eating, from heightened awareness of physical and emotional cues to recognizing non-hunger triggers for eating. Dr. Michelle unveils the secrets to meeting our needs effectively, choosing food for enjoyment and nourishment, and ultimately, using the fuel we consume to live the vibrant life we crave.

Join us as we explore the broad applications of mindful eating with Dr. May, unlocking the door to a healthier, happier relationship with food and the cessation of yo-yo-dieting. She has written four books entitled Eat What You Love, Love What You Eat, and they are designed to meet the specific needs of people with diabetes, binge eating, athletes, and students.

If you are ready to let go of your inner struggle with food and discover how mindful eating can help you live the full, vibrant life you crave – without dieting, listen in now.
