Self-Care For The Soul

Every Sunday morning, our Community for Conscious Living come together virtually for Prayer and Healing Circle. As an intro for our new podcast listeners, this meditation covers the basics of heart-centered healing meditation – what it is, how it works, why we do it, and why it is a fundamental practice in Self-Care for the Soul. It’s an experiential practice that helps us align the mind with what the body, heart and soul innately know so we can reduce resistance and receive even more of the beauty that comes in with this process. You are welcome to bring your prayers for personal struggles, challenges of and with those you care about, for peace, for fulfillment, and for the health and sustainability of our planet. Please invite your friends to join us, too. Thank you for joining us.

In the wake of the events that fueled the Me Too movement, a lot of questions have been coming up. Why would someone stay silent about abuse and then speak up twenty years after the event happened? What we may not know is that silence is actually the norm, not the exception. Licia Berry, known as the Guide to the Frontier Inside, experienced abuse in her childhood home. She remained silent for many years. In adulthood, as she grappled with how to confront her past, she feared losing her connection to the only family she knew. This ignited a passion in her to become an agent for change. Licia shares how she began to examine her life and realize the things she needed to heal from which then led her into actually being of service to other people.
