Brianne Grogan

As my summer hiatus continues, I am bringing forward past episodes that present themselves for another listen. This one came through a number of synchronicities. As I explained in the new introduction, I found great value in re-listening to this one and was able to deepen into the message Dr. Brianne Grogan shared.  The original episode was titled; The Practical Magic of the Pelvic Floor with Dr. Brianne Grogan The episode was not just about pelvic health, it was about how we can open our consciousness to include more of what we choose for our own bodies and our own health.  My powerful guest was Dr. Brianne Grogan who brings forward a treasure trove of wisdom for best practices for vital health and a life well lived—therefore, practical magic. As Dr. Bri shared, the pelvic floor is the epicentre for so many of the body’s operations. We discussed bio-tensegrity a whole body approach. When one part of the body is compromised, the entire structure responds to balance out the problem. Many of us are still responding to the symptoms that might show up and not getting to the root of the issue. Learning more about the foundational aspect of the pelvic floor in particular brings us back into awareness first, and then control of our body’s vital health. That’s the practical. The magic comes in when we recognize that much of what we have accepted about our health and wellness may simply be an outdated belief system that is ready to be released. The invitation is to explore what beliefs you might be holding and what you have accepted as truth that might not be. Stepping into your own knowing and finding the right formula for yourself.  Dr. Bri has devoted herself to helping others understand their bodies through her incredible, accessible, information rich YouTube channel, Dr. Bri’s Vibrant Pelvic Health. She says that beginning with an awareness of the hidden anatomy of the pelvic floor (which most of us were not taught about) is key to understanding and trusting this part of our body and how it corresponds to our overall health. Many of the issues that result from pelvic floor dysfunction are very “common” but that doesn’t mean that they are okay or that we need to live with them. Gaining self awareness and understanding allows us to take the reigns back with confidence. We become adept at weaving the practical and the magical into the tapestry of our own embodiment.  As Bri says, It’s the challenges that change you and there are gifts in every challenge. I encourage every woman listening to go to Dr. Bri’s website to learn more, to visit her YouTube channel and in particular to watch the two videos she made on the basics of pelvic floor anatomy  and health, and to tune into all parts of your own body to inner stand and choose the best for your own radiant health and joy-full living now!

Episode 172 What's common is not necessarily "normal" (a reprise episode with Dr. Brianne Grogan)

This is in part a repeat episode from September 2021 (episode 139). The theme is our power to choose. It’s coming around again! It is ever more important to deepen into your knowing of what is true, because saying no can be a yes to more of you. The original episode was inspired by you, the listeners, who call forward what wants to be heard, and by an instagram post on neutrality. The post came from Dr. Lori Earley and she said in her account @phoenixrising medicine, "Neutrality is not an option." What are we choosing in this moment, at this pivotal time on the planet? When chaos and polarities are amplified, we can retreat from that cacophony because we do not want to be pulled in directions that would seem to pull us apart. We still FEEL it because we are part of the collective. How can we discern what is right for us in this moment? How do we navigate the external? We choose.  We don't have to choose a side, but we are being called to choose who we are. To stand in our pure love presence. To say no to what we need to say no to, to say yes to what we need to say yes to—because to not choose is to give our tacit or implied consent to whatever, or whoever, has the loudest voice.   At the end of the episode host Christine Pensa shared a short tree meditation to help you discern through metaphor the truth of you and how to use visualization to move beyond the lower frequencies that are external to you.

Episode 171 Choosing is your superpower, a reminder episode

This is a reprise of episode 154 recorded in May of 2022, and an invitation to revisit both the episode and your own growth over the last year.   I recorded a new introduction, and just like I did, it’s a call to observe where you can expand and deepen into more of who you are as we continue to create, and grow on the Earth in these powerful times.  (from the original episode) This month is another powerful one and it is more and more noticeable that things are changing and need to change in our world. There is a deep knowing of this in our own bodies, and yet, many of us are also experiencing a recurrence of things that feel like old patterns. It’s confusing. We know we are becoming more, and we are also experiencing physical ailments, heightened emotions and loss of a sense of “reality.”  How do we practically step into becoming more of the complete self? How can we allow ourselves to be remade into our true selves? Who are we without these looping patterns? Host Christine shares some practical ideas to move through these endings so we can step more fully into ourselves.  Choosing to begin a deeper relationship with the unlimited you. Choosing to embody you, here, now is a coming home to yourself and being in a state of deep love for who you really are. Dropping the attachments no matter how safe they feel—and being very gentle with yourself as you do so.  May you always choose what is perfect for the highest frequency you in each moment. May you trust yourself. May you learn to love yourself at ever deeper levels. May you inner stand more of yourself in the deep silence of who you are. May you allow yourself to change course and direction without shame, blame or guilt. May you be free.  With love, Christine Visit the podcast show page for more episodes and info; https://www.artthatmoves.ca/podcasts/https://www.artthatmoves.ca/podcasts/

Episode 170 May Your True Nature continue to grow deeper roots

This episode was inspired by a well known aphorism, curiosity killed the cat, and is an exploration into how, why, and where our natural curiosity may have been suppressed. What does curiosity really mean and why would we damn up the river of information that flows to us and through us? Why would we choose to block that which helps us navigate the truth of our divinity? Curiosity begets self mastery, because, we are the catalysts for our own change and evolution.  We have lived consciously and unconsciously in the “do as you are told” pattern and program. We have been encouraged to use the external/validated information even when it doesn’t feel right to us. Now is the time for us to move more strongly and powerfully into a “do as you KNOW” frequency. Your natural curiosity helps you access your inner wisdom which flows abundantly from your own pure heart. When we honour our natural curiosity, we evolve from being the supplicants - forever looking outside of ourselves for answers - to the creators of our own reality and this world we are here for now.  Time to call back in your curiosity and weave the golden threads shining through the muck back into your life. So it is.  Visit the podcast show page for more https://www.artthatmoves.ca/podcasts/

Episode 169 Curiosity begets self mastery

The new song  (art &amp; poetry Christine Pensa) As I wake I ask my heart Show me the beauty beyond the beauty I thought I knew Let me step beyond fields of possibility I thought were mine Let me have the courage to leave behind what I thought was true Let me shed like tattered rags the beliefs and images I have worn in unknowing  So that my brilliance is all clothing that I need ~ This episode is a reflection on what we are stepping away from in this moment on the planet. How it is that we can surrender into the beauty beyond the beauty we thought we knew. The first question that arises within our human self is how to move this through your body and into your life in a way that integrates into your everyday existence. It takes courage to see the wonder of ourselves because it means that so much of who we thought we were, including the “good” parts of ourselves, needs to go. The blinders need to come off or we cannot hope to see our own brilliance.  The invitation is to notice where the resistance in you is -- turning to meet that part and go beyond what you thought was the best of you. Sacred self care is opening to find more of ourselves. We’re not fixing, because in this moment we are becoming the creator self by leaving behind the limiting beliefs and practices and images we have held onto. We are in the process of freeing ourselves. We are stepping into more of our true brilliance, partnering with the Earth, and then with others. We are the song that is being sung. We are the flowers that continue to bloom and we cannot be stopped. Our bodies already recognize and respond to the beauty beyond the beauty we thought we knew. It is so.

Episode 168 Show me the beauty beyond the beauty I thought I knew

Laura Bolton

This engaging and heart opening episode features guest Laura Bolton and what she terms her “radical” decision to leave all social media. As we discovered in our discussion, it’s not just about social media, it’s about everything. Our conversation is an invitation to notice where and how we are participating in any kind of toxic pattern or relationship in our own lives.  Collectively we are stepping away from people, places, and things that are draining us like never before. We have begun to recognize the time to act is NOW. We are at a pivotal moment on this planet where we can choose to drop eons of programs and build something new from our true selves—without distraction, and distortion.  Laura shared some of the reasons behind her decision to leave social media, and the “utter relief” she felt afterward without the “tiniest piece of regret.” She said she feels lighter, calmer and has much more energy to focus on things that matter to her.  Many of us have found connection and comfort in social media particularly over the last few years. Although there were many good things that sprang from that (like feeling understood and less alone) Laura says she was finding the negative frequency and parasitic energies have become more and more prevalent on the platform. She became aware that, for her, social media platforms felt like “a digital slave system that profits from your time and attention.” We discussed how a relationship with anything outside of ourselves can be abusive or toxic when our own thoughts and behaviours become overly influenced. Laura maintains that if examined, most people would find that they do not have a liberated, healthy relationship with social media.  Laura finds asking questions to be a beautiful internal exploration. As she says, no one knows what is best for you, but you, and, it’s really important to self inquire. Here are a few questions that arose from this episode; What am I fearful of missing out on? Is my human need to have certainty limiting me? What is it I would choose for myself? Where/when/by who has my time and attention been hijacked or manipulated? How can I give this relationship/practice/habit up? How do I find my community if I’m not online? After she made the decision to leave social media, Laura found there were many new opportunities that opened up because she was willing to let go of what wasn’t serving her. She shared some ideas for creating the awareness around whatever toxic situation we find ourselves in, and how to practically allow yourself to explore what is happening in your own life.  It’s possible to shift anything once we become aware and we build in the support we need. We have the power to choose who and what we surround ourselves with.  Link to find out more about Laura’s heart work; https://www.laurajanebolton.com/  Link to her podcast Real Talk with Laura Bolton; https://www.laurajanebolton.com/podcast  Link to this podcast show page; https://www.artthatmoves.ca/podcasts/

Episode 167 Laura Bolton, a Social Media Liberation journey

f a straight line is not the fastest route from A to B, what is your path to the wonder of you? What does that meandering path look like in this moment on the Earth? This episode is an invitation to notice where you have been in reaction when you really want to be in true, aligned action in accordance with what your heart already knows is the path that’s best for you. That impulse is also in collaboration with others and what is being called forward by so many of us here now. Taking time to tune into what that pure love frequency feels like for you. Allowing the release of the harmful patterns and programs we have knowingly or unknowingly chosen in linear thinking. Breaking free to forge our own path from our connection to our true selves. No more cages around our hearts we all move toward what we always knew this world should be.  The poem;  Oh beloved  This love we are A wellspring of joy Alive with wonder Gathering speed now Anchoring here, now From each being following the flow(ering) of their being Coming together as our infinite purity  Nothing but love Our true nature  Our Home We chose this peace freedom beauty  for our Home (art &amp; poetry Christine Pensa) Link to the show page https://www.artthatmoves.ca/podcasts/

Episode 166 Releasing straight lines to forge a new path

This episode is a deepening of an exploration of the walls between us that host Christine Pensa did in episode 127. It’s an invitation to notice where and how you have been creating metaphorical and real walls within yourself—to notice where you have been following paths and practices that are not truly who you are NOW.  We’ve been in warrior mode for some time now and it’s time to relearn and remember from where that polarity sprung—and to turn those warrior tools into the precision instruments they have been waiting to transform into.  You choose.  You are a sovereign love song sung to all of creation able to dissolve the walls that were erected on the vast fields of who we truly are.   By dissolving the polarity within us and between us we are tuning into our song sung together as one voice in alignment with Earth.  This image of ONE voice is a call for all of us to dissolve the walls within ourselves and between our fellow divine humans. Connecting back to ourselves as free, sovereign beings of love. Connecting back to the purity and innocence of your original, organic self to come back into harmony with ourselves first—then singing this song of love as our infinite expression.  Knowing ourselves as love as beings here to do harm to none, we reunite with our true expression. Christine concluded the episode by sharing a beautiful poem written by Maria Sabina entitled, You Are the Medicine.   Find out more by visiting the show page at; https://www.artthatmoves.ca/

Episode 165, Dissolving the Walls Within and Between Us 

Opening into 2023 this first episode of the year was inspired by the phrase full of yourself. It was something I explored in a former episode and as we move into the new year, this is an invitation to deepen into the question, “If you’re not full of yourself, who else and what else are you full of?” How much of your true self you are full of and where can you find more you.  A beautiful way to find more you is to close your eyes and come into the silence of you. Breathe. Get out of your head and into your heart space. Then say out loud allowing your true self to fill in the blanks; My name is_, and I am full of myself. When I am full of myself I AM.  As we continue to journey through this powerful time on the Earth, we re-visit our deepest layers and it can be challenging to find new footings. As I said in episode 135, we are finding our new footing in this moment, many of us are watering the new ground with our tears. The tears can be the emptying out of what is not us and stepping back into filling ourselves up with the truth of who we are and have always been beneath the clutter.  May we all continue to fill with more of our true divine presence in 2023. Much love, Christine (Visit the podcast page to find more episodes https://www.artthatmoves.ca/podcasts/)

EPISODE 164 Being Full of Yourself Even More in 2023

As the year draws to a close it is ever more important to consciously navigate your sacred self care. Being present is a powerful act that brings you and those around you into the higher frequency of who you truly are. Noticing what, who, where you are hitting the edges of you and are being pulled away from that centre. Choosing to stand in the light of you. To close out the year, podcast host Christine Pensa shared one of her older poems that feels particularly relevant for this moment on the Earth. ~Divine Feminine Creatrix Story~ Mysteries and joys and stories you have yet to dance are here within you Your Body Temple’s knowing is vaster than any ocean, and yet dear sister, you have chosen to dip just your tiny perfect toe in those flowing waters Know, entering the cave of your own deep wisdom is your mastery to choose That birthright, which you have been told is outside of you, is simply yours to claim Everything is within you Beloved sister Open to the fullness of you Open to the vast ocean that is you Choose, not to limit yourself by what you have been told by others, by the distorted mirrors, the projected images that were never you, by false stories of what is ready to drop from this reality Choose your untamed nature, choose your unlimited self Choose, dear sister, choose to embody your joy, your grace, your ease, your wisdom, your beauty, the magic of your power to imagine The soup that holds all the knowing of this beautiful world is yours to drink, you have only to serve yourself a bowl from the Temple inside your Heart A blanket of light woven from all the stars in all the galaxies is yours also, you have only to choose to weave the Cosmic Mother’s whispers into your dreamtime story And, dear sister, the portals of your strong feet, your lower mouth are yours to be in union and communion with your Divine Mother, the Earth as you both choose to vibrate with greater and greater pure love Choose, dear sister, to … be the embodiment of your own Temple Choose to; Dance into the light of you Dive into the ocean of you Sing the stories of you Be in LOVE with YOU So be it, SO IT IS ~ (poetry Christine Pensa) Wishing all the listeners many heart opening be-moreings as we move into more of our brilliance in 2023.

As the year draws to a close it is ever more important to consciously navigate your sacred self care. Being present is a powerful act that brings you and those around you into the higher frequency of who you truly are.

To close out the year, podcast host Christine Pensa shared one of her older poems that feels particularly relevant for this moment on the Earth. ~Divine Feminine Creatrix Story~ Mysteries and joys and stories you have yet to dance are here within you Your Body Temple’s knowing is vaster than any ocean, and yet dear sister, you have chosen to dip just your tiny perfect toe in those flowing waters Know, entering the cave of your own deep wisdom is your mastery to choose That birthright, which you have been told is outside of you, is simply yours to claim Everything is within you Beloved sister Open to the fullness of you Open to the vast ocean that is you Choose, not to limit yourself by what you have been told by others, by the distorted mirrors, the projected images that were never you, by false stories of what is ready to drop from this reality Choose your untamed nature, choose your unlimited self Choose, dear sister, choose to embody your joy, your grace, your ease, your wisdom, your beauty, the magic of your power to imagine The soup that holds all the knowing of this beautiful world is yours to drink, you have only to serve yourself a bowl from the Temple inside your Heart A blanket of light woven from all the stars in all the galaxies is yours also, you have only to choose to weave the Cosmic Mother’s whispers into your dreamtime story And, dear sister, the portals of your strong feet, your lower mouth are yours to be in union and communion with your Divine Mother, the Earth as you both choose to vibrate with greater and greater pure love Choose, dear sister, to … be the embodiment of your own Temple Choose to; Dance into the light of you Dive into the ocean of you Sing the stories of you Be in LOVE with YOU So be it, SO IT IS ~ (poetry Christine Pensa) Wishing all the listeners many heart opening be-moreings as we move into more of our brilliance in 2023.

Episode 163 Standing in the Light of YOU, Finding that Sweet Spot 

Exploring the nature of sacred self care, self healing &amp; the evolution of our human experience now. Our world is changing, we are changing, &amp; choosing to become more of ourselves. In Season 3 &amp; 4 Christine Pensa explores heart expanding topics with brilliant guests to empower your sacred self care &amp; deeper knowing of your infinite self. https://www.artthatmoves.ca/podcasts/

The very first and only episode I will listen to had the guest state “I almost needed a man to say to me ‘love includes all of your humanity’” how on earth could you say this podcast about female empowerment with such a clearly entrenched patriarchy belief set. No thank you.

Awful

Incredible! So magical as I enter this sacred circle.
Thank you!

When the student is ready the teacher appears.

Susan Nefzger

Susan Nefzger began exploring self awareness in the early 1980's as a result of reading “Many Lives Many Masters,” by Brian Weiss, M.D. and attending his workshops.  After moving to Atlanta as a member of the Georgia Lottery start-up team, Susan began a self-actualization quest which  included studying many spiritual practices, a favorite guru being Self Realization Fellowship Founder, Paramahansa Yogananda. A veteran public relations professional over a highly substantive 30 year career, Susan traveled around the world seeking answers on her quest and received them in the form of the International Association of Conscious and Creative Writing  and founder Julia McCutchen. This led to attending a retreat in Glastonbury, UK in May of 2015, where the words of this book flowed forth in a torrent of inspiration.  Becoming aligned with a creative consciousness provided the impetus to write and complete this book, its companion workbook, “Putting Awareness Into Practice” and beginning a poetry blog, “Seeing Beyond the Ordinary” which is accompanied by her nature photography. Susan resides in Atlanta, Georgia, where she writes, reads, works and take photos of nature.  In this episode, Susan shared her journey from dreaming about writing a book to making it a reality, when she listened to her inner awareness and the "nudge" to attend a workshop in Glastonbury, Uk. Through the channeled wisdom and guidance of Mary Magdalene Susan completed her book—A Practical Guide to Awareness. The story illustrates the practical guide—as through the doubts, fears, trials and persecution of the women who stay true to their purpose no matter what.During our podcast conversation Susan shares how to listen to the inner call and act upon it. The issue of "time" being an obstacle many women face as a barrier to achieving what they truly long for is addressed by Susan, and she outlined 5 easy steps to increasing self awareness as a form of sacred self care every day.

Erica Ross

Episode 080 Erica Ross, She Reflects, a spiral journey for the feminine soul    Erica Ross brings the wisdom of over 40 years work in the creative, healing and spiritual arts. Erica infuses her life experience as a dancer, artist, DJ, facilitator, trainer, sister and mother into the pages of her newly published book, She Reflects: A Spiral Journey for the Feminine Soul, and the accompanying, She Reflects Journal and Colouring Book. As a dancer, artist and facilitator of healing, expressive and sacred experiences, and the co-founder of, The Move Dance Collective—Toronto's largest ecstatic dance community—Erica has dedicated herself to the "liberation and healing of the feminine soul." Her work in this includes, Dance Our Way Home, and Radical Radiance, 2 healing processes that facilitate the discovery and re-discovery of women's own unique gifts, power, and voices. As Erica says, she has followed her wild heart and creative impulses around the globe since the early 1970's, making homes in Canada, the USA, Indonesia and Wales. She shares that dance, creativity and unveiling the power of the Divine Mirror has been her life's work and her calling. Erica shared the powerful story of the goddesses Amaterasu and Uzume, and this episode might be worth listening to just to hear that, but she goes on to share the power of being clear mirrors for each other, and how that work is part of the gift of being in true community. Erica shares the potential for ecstatic dance to bring us home to our bodies' wisdom, in particular our womb wisdom and the power of tuning into our own beat. She says, "We're awakening, stirring, rising... connecting and dancing. We're exploring coming home to ourselves and claiming our right to re-order the world... and our dear Gaia needs us to do just that for the well-being of all."

Episode 85 Asia Suler " Living in alignment with the magic of earth"

Episode 076 with Emma Kupu Mitchell and Christine Pensa, On Being Inspired, Ignited, and More Aligned   On being inspired, ignited, and more aligned in our sacred self care. How our work has shifted as we have become more of who we are—in part—because of this joyful work we do together on the podcast. In a kind of Freaky Friday, Emma and Christine take turns being interviewed by each other to talk about the passion they both feel for the new ways they are showing up in the world, particularly through their sacred work and offerings. First up is Emma being interviewed by Christine. Emma is a Soul Essence Alignment Artist and has been a practitioner of holistic therapies for over 30 years, including clinical Aromatherapy, Ayurveda, Depth Numerology, Elemental Astrology, Yoga Nidra, and Sound Healing. Emma uses her extensive knowledge of ancient healing practices to create unique sound-infused sacred anointing oils and tinctures. She is one of the co-hosts of the Awakened Woman self care podcast.             Emma shares why the soul is an integral part of her work because she is fascinated by the depths of who we are and what we are here to evolve into, and that’s why the soul essence is key to her work. She explains how her new Soul Essence Alignment Mandala (SEAM) work is the culmination of over 30 years experience, in alignment with the new energies moving through her. She shares how the Soul Essence Alignment is weaving in more of the Elemental Astrology, or Cosmic energies, into her Sound, Plant and Stone medicine work. She says this work feeds her own sacred self care because every person she comes into contact with is a mirror for her own journey, and she honours the sacredness of this work as a gift. Emma maintains, "My work is my play."   Next up is Christine being interviewed by Emma. Christine Pensa is the face behind Art That Moves, where Ceremony is practiced as ART. Journeying with Christine is an invitation to make sacred your art of living through co-created daily ritual, bespoke ceremony, and creative practice—where she holds space for the masterpiece of you to thrive. In addition to being a visual artist, Christine is a trained Shamanic Practitioner, and Creative Way Shower who combines ancient practice with the sovereign creative voice that wants to be expressed through you. Christine is also the co-creator, and illustrator of the Soul Discovery Coloring Book published by Conari Press, as well as the co-host of the weekly podcast, Awakened Woman Self Care. Christine shares her journey from art making and teaching children and adults art and soul. She says it was time to leave behind her art production, even though she loved it, to do something she loves more—weaving her shamanic training with her joy of creating, particularly ceremony, which her guides invited her to embrace as a kind of "ceremony party planner." She shares that though many people think they don't have time to create sacred ceremony in their day, they can make simple moments sacred seamlessly and easily. She maintains the art of living with sacred intention means life is always filled with joy. Both Emma and Christine agree that Wednesdays are their favourite day and how meeting and interviewing the 75 women they have featured on the podcast has fed their sacred self care. Both are grateful for the wise women guests, and for the beautiful listeners who tune in every week. Both are grateful that this podcast seed they planted has grown into a beautiful flower—now that's sacred self care!   Visit Emma's website https://www.emmakupumitchell.comVisit Christine's website https://www.artthatmoves.ca  Join the Triple Goddess community at the special low monthly price
