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.
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 a...
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.

Recuperando la Vida~ Los Tiempos al Desnudó L@s invito a disfrutar esta fuerte platica al desnudó total donde nos juntamos Tam y yo el viernes pasado a re-conectar e investigar en conversación que estamos viviendo hoy en día? Cómo y porqué nos afectan los planetas? Porqué creemos que lo qué pasa en la galaxia no nos va a afectar? Cómo se está actualizando la información de mis ancestros?

Beyond Beliefs is YOUR Experience~ Tales of Recovery this week : Embracing the Inward Journey that includes having swam in the river of "kool-aid" and programmed and outdated beliefs. Why did I ever think the christian church was the place to be? Because of programing, the need to belong and downright seeking to be 'safe'. As time went by and my body was shutting down, the business aspect of this organization was quite questionable AND the apologetics were just not coming through- I LEFT. But it...

This includes food, household goods, pharmaceuticals, and of course......
Continuing with our Befriending Aging Series, Mimi Young joins the Tales of Recovery Podcast again in an important conversation on ageism, the cultural systematic narrative on what beauty is, what we are modeling for our children 'elders' in training and how becoming students of the Earth again is one of the sweet resolves for the current expectations of beauty and aging standards issue that is toxic AF and is deeply engrained in most of us.
Just a few details here for those struggling with the imposed traditions of the season. We might feel some comfort and joy with specific memories of foods, gatherings and laughter. But we are also exposed to a system of oppressive lies, stinky capitalism and family 'cult' gatherings that are super stressful and not keeping us Well. Especially for anyone in the process of remembering their ancestral medicine and healing years of enmeshment and toxic traumas... while the rest of the clan is still ...

Espero esta conversación sea de beneficio para tod@s, para seguir dándonos cuenta de nuestra responsabilidad de ...

Podría ser que la depresión, ansiedad , o un ataque de desesperación puedan ser el GRAN punto de entrada para permitir fluir todas las emociones? Eso que le llamamos curación Ancestral? . Las emociones del duelo, amor perdido, resistencia, miedo etc, todo lo que no pudimos sentir de chicos? O tal ves lo que nuestros ancestros no lograron permitirse sentir por la situación en la que crecieron? Que se atora en el cuerpo por tanta represión cultural de sentimientos o dureza de vida? Cómo abrir de n...

A few years ago I decided I wanted to remove my 16 year old saline breast implants. After much arguing with the medical system, doctors and my own lagging timeline.. I did it and I am now 8 days into one of the most powerful decisions I have ever made . I feel lighter, grateful AF, normal and so empowered to love my body from the inside out more and more each day. May this episode help make you laugh, feel and reflect on how we treat ourselves and how we can maybe learn to love our bodies more a...
Hace unos años decidi que ya no quería tener estos implantes que decidí ponerme hace mas de 18 años. Dure entre tres y cuatro años y una seria de síntomas, miedos y las ganas de regresar a lo natural y honrar mi cuerpo para por fin llegar a esta operación. Fue un camino de estrés, miedo y risas ridículas. Agradecida a la vida, a mi cuerpo y la resiliencia. Espero les ayude escuchar esto por aquí. Gris, la Surfa

Cuando te das cuenta de tanta Magia que existe, y que a veces tarda un rato el cuerpo y la razón en alcanzar a ver que SIEMPRE has vivido en lo supernatural, ( aunque se nos halla olvidado por un rato) manifestando sueños y siendo testigo de este enorme regalo que es VIVIR. Regreso de estar una semana con unas grandes mujeres en un encuentro mágico en Punta Monterey (que ya vendrán al podcast en unos días a compartirles también) y aquí sale una reflection de el tiempo o los años que a veces tien...
