So, here we are. I've taken a bit of a break, but I'm back, to help guide you through these later stages of winter and into Spring. This season, the pod might be a little bit more fluid, sometimes I'll chat, and sometimes I'll share poems or journaling prompts. But there will always be a soundbath and meditation. Yoga Nidra will guide you home to a place of DEEP REST.

Wrap up warm, spray some aromatherapy and let your nervous system take a break.

In today's Calm the mind, soothe the soul, you find a traditional yoga nidra will guide you to a place of stillness, but also draw upon feelings of safety and security. To calm the mind, and peel back the layers of worry and grief that winter can bring. These shorter recordings don't require too much of your time, they just ask you to gift yourself this time, be worthy of rest and relief.

Listen here or on Spotify.

Welcome to your Friday rest session. Josephine guides you through a deeply restful meditation and soundbath.

The seventh chakra, Sahaswara, is referred to as the thousand-petal lotus chakra. This is the top chakra of the seven and located at the crown of the head. Sahaswara is our source of enlightenment and spiritual connection to all that is. It is a connection to our higher selves, to every being on the planet, and ultimately the divine energy that creates everything in the universe. True opening of Sahaswara means the realization that you are pure awareness. You are pure consciousness, undivided, and all expansive. Like a drop in the ocean, you are a part of that ocean that contains and encompasses every aspect of it.

The third eye chakra is our centre of mystical intuition and insight. It is our sixth chakra and is located in the centre of the head. The seat of intuition, self-realisation, inspiration and imagination. When open, the third eye chakra connects us to the present moment and can deepen spiritual connection as well as provide wisdom and insight. The third eye is located in the centre of the head, level with the middle of the eyebrows. It is associated with the pineal gland, a small gland situated deep in the brain which secretes melatonin that regulates the body’s internal clock influencing circadian rhythms and reproductive hormones. The sixth chakra is associated with mystical visions, clairvoyance, the ability to observe chakras and auras, precognition and out-of-body experiences. It is where we develop an impersonal mind and detach from physical and mental illusions. This is where we can transcend thoughts, worries and fears to know our souls deeply from within. Fears, personal experiences and memories that are active within the energy of the mental body. When stimulated, both hemispheres of the brain work together and help us transcend dualistic thinking.

The fifth chakra, Vishuddha, is the first of the three spiritual chakras. In the area of the throat, it governs the anatomical regions of the thyroid, parathyroid, jaw, neck, mouth, tongue, and larynx. To be open and aligned in the fifth chakra is to speak, listen, and express yourself from a higher form of communication. Faith and understanding combine the essence of the Vishuddha chakra meaning. The element corresponding to the fifth chakra is ether or space, and the sense is hearing. Authentic expression is not something that comes easily. There’s a delicate dance between saying what you mean and staying tactful or diplomatic. Often it’s easier to say what the other person may want to hear instead of speaking your truth. Fear of not being accepted, or judgment from the other may hinder your truthful verbal expression.Dr. David Simon often refers to the following ancient wisdom. He says that there are three gateways you should cross before speaking.

This is the area where physical and spiritual meet. The fourth chakra, also referred to as the heart chakra, is located at the center of the chest and includes the heart, cardiac plexus, thymus gland, lungs, and breasts It also rules the lymphatic system. The Sanskrit word for the fourth chakra is Anahata, which means “unstruck” or “unhurt.” The name implies that beneath the hurts and grievances of past experiences lies a pure and spiritual place where no hurt exists. When you encounter hurt feelings from your past or present, you can choose to feel them fully and let them go or hold onto them. By letting them go, you’re able to open your heart to new people and new experiences with compassion, love, and understanding. Holding onto hurt harbors negative feelings and cuts you off from opportunities to love and serve. Letting go is as easy as making a choice. Your mind and your ego may tell you otherwise but it’s as simple as choosing to let go and move on.
