How to Change our Frequency & Energetically Align with our Desires with Jessica Bowes

Special Announcement: Doors are now open to our 5-week Money Mastery Study Group

Welcome back! I’m excited to share my latest conversation with spiritual mentor Jessica Bowes. The universe recently reconnected us for a new free collaboration we’ve been working on called, “The Consciousness of Wealth” ~ you can sign up for it right here.

I wanted to have Jessica on the show so you could learn more about her background and amazing gifts as a channeler, seer, highly intuitive, sensitive and empathic person. Years ago she received a specific practice from the angels that she now uses to support her clients and people around the world to energetically align with their desires.

We talk about money miracles, health challenges, love, spiritual growth, how manifestation actually works (and why it sometimes doesn’t) and more…

In this episode we discussed:

• What was different about Jessica as a child
• How she discovered her gifts of channeling and seeing and communicating with ascended masters and angels
• Living as an empath and Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) and how to cope with difficult energies
• How she discovered the Luminous Method she teaches and uses in her life
• The money miracles Jessica has attracted
• How Jessica got through a challenging mystery illness that kept her bedridden and sick for three years - she eventually tested positive for Lyme’s disease
• Why some of us have really challenging illnesses or health problems in our life
• How she manifested love after divorce and being a single mom
• What Jessica’s spiritual practice looks like in her life now
• Her biggest growing edge now

Radiantly Nourished: Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis with Sena Maria Shellenberger

After developing a condition where she began to have an allergic reaction to almost everything she ate, Sena knew something had to change. She had been living a health-focused lifestyle for years after leaving a job at Google and finding the heart medicine of cacao. But years later she would discover her days of drinking cacao, using plant medicines and eating a more vegetarian diet were no longer supporting her body’s needs.

By chance, she won an instagram contest for a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis and learned she was very depleted in certain key minerals our bodies need to thrive. Through changing her diet and supplementing with minerals, Sena began to see all the ways her current life were not supporting her true needs. She bravely left her fiancee, and soon moved from Northern California to her home town in St. Paul, Minnesota.

I love watching my friends evolve and grow, and after witnessing Sena’s transformation to become radiantly nourished, I knew I wanted to hear the whole story. It turns out what may have worked in our 20’s is not always sustainable into our 30’s and beyond…

In this episode we discussed:

• What is hair tissue mineral analysis? What does it tell us about key minerals we may be missing?
• The industrialization of our food system and why so many of us have food sensitivities that our grandparents didn’t
• Why Sena’s health started deteriorating and how HTMA got her back on track to living radiantly nourished
• Why Sena left her relationship, moved home to Minnesota and started over in life
• The vulnerability of choosing to be single at 35 and also having the desire to start a family
• Sena’s shift from using cacao daily to microdosing with mushrooms to letting go of both of them as a regular routine

Mindful Men Series: Vedic Astrology with Richard Powell

Announcement: Enrollment is now open for the next cohort of the Way of the Priestess. We begin March 22, 2024, and Richard will be one of our guest teachers

When I first discovered that when everyone is talking about “Full moon in Leo” the actual moon in the sky is most often in the constellation of Cancer my mouth dropped! How could this be?

Ever since I was a kid I loved looking at the stars and astronomy was one of my favorite subjects in school. I’ve always asked questions like, “Why are we here? Where did we come from, and what’s the point of all of this?” So many of these questions have begun to be answered through my study of Vedic Astrology, the ancient form of astrology from India.

In Vedic astrology, our chart is a printout of our karma, the lessons our soul came to experience in this life. We bring with us our beneficial and challenging karmas to be lived out and worked through. Our soul has different reasons for incarnating - for example Dharma, Artha (Money, and how we earn it), Kama (Passion, desire) and Moksha (liberation). I’ve been wowed again and again by the accuracy of Vedic Astrology, to predict dates and beneficial phases.

Richard has helped me choose dates to buy a car, beneficial times to marry, has predicted certain moves I’ve had, and so much more.

This episode has been a long time coming! I’ve been referencing what I’ve learned in Vedic astrology more and more in the episodes, so I wanted to sit down with guest expert, Vedic Astrologer Richard Powell. Richard has been a dear friend and teacher of mine since I began studying with him during the beginning of the pandemic.

In this episode we discussed:

• The differences between Western and Eastern or “Vedic” astrology

• The “Four Aims of Life” (Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha) and why our souls choose to incarnate

• The 12 constellations, what planets they are ruled by and what are their unique energies

• Each of the planets and their energies

• Phases of life ruled by the planets and how to find out what phase of life you are in

• The nodes of the moon: Ketu and Rahu: And our experiences from these life phases

Links in this Episode:

• View your unique chart: https://deva.guru/ - exact birth time does make a difference so be sure to check your birth certificate

• Your “sign” in vedic astrology will be the number in the top center diamond (1-12) in the chart

• Your “phase of life” will be the planet listed in the “Viṁśottarī Daśā” section underneath the chart
