In this episode, I'm joined by Aaron Horn - a Grammy-nominated producer and songwriter who's music has sold over a million records.

He's also a trained sound meditation and gong bath practitioner and makes functional music for meditation and relaxation. As if that wasn't enough, he's also studying for a BA in Osteopathy!

Quite a collection of skills and accolades, but really interesting intersection of his interests between music, healing and the body.

I'm thrilled Aaron has joined me on the podcast - we're going to talk about music as a healing tool, AI in wellbeing, the commercialisation of healing practises and lots more

Let's dive in!

Are you searching for a slice of tranquility amid the hustle and bustle of your modern life? You might be surprised to learn that the solution is right under your nose—literally. 

Join me in this episode as I delve into an enlightening conversation with Kathy Bell, an expert breathwork practitioner. Together, we discuss the transformative potential of conscious breathing and its remarkable impact on our well-being.

Kathy explains how breath work, by virtue of our ability to control it, affects our nervous system and helps us maintain a sense of calm even in stressful situations. We dig into the complexity of the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems and how understanding them can empower us to handle stress more effectively. We also address potential concerns around the practice of breath work, underscoring the importance of learning under guidance and tailoring the practice to fit your body and your breath length.

Can breathwork leave you feeling fatigued? Can it truly counter depression? Is it possible that breathwork might inadvertently heighten anxiety? Join us as we run through all the questions a beginner to the practise might have.

So, take a deep breath, and let's learn about breathwork together!

This week I'm joined by shamanic business coach and high priestess of Sacred Self Love and Spiritual Badassery, Rachel Smithbone!

Through coaching, yoga, sound therapy and ceremony offerings Rachel helps people to invoke audacious authenticity in their lives and live in a radically aligned way. 

As a space holder and champion of divine cosmic power, Rachel is the perfect person to talk about today’s topic, the art of ceremony, and how ceremonial practises can help cultivate gratitude, inner knowing and improve our wellbeing.

We chat about:
- Rachel's background and childhood connection to the land

- The distinction between ceremony & ritual
- Rachel's offerings & how to work with her
