More Than Wellness Podcast

an Introduction to the 12 laws of Karma with my co-host Verena White from Enso Kinesiology. There are a lot of misconceptions about karma and while looking online we realised there was a serious lack of podcasts specifically about the 12 laws of Karma. So hopefully you find this helpful and informative and brings a little more clarity to the concept of Karma and how it effects us all.

This is a follow on to the meditation podcast and is intended as a simple meditation practice to establish some of the basic principles of mindfulness meditation while also engaging our own capacity for self healing through conscious intention.

I've been holding onto this one for a while because I felt I could add much more valuable information to the podcast itself but in the end I decided to publish it as it is. I've been encouraged to apply Pareto's law to my output and stop striving for perfection. Having listened to my podcast you're probably thinking there's no fear of that, don't be so cheeky!

There's a little bit of science and some of the practical skills to engage meditation. If you're new to meditation I hope this helps to give you a nice simple introduction and makes it a little more accessible while demystifying it a little. Not to say that meditation can't be enhanced by a little mysticism but it's nice to have a simple introduction.

I'll also follow this up by publishing a meditation combining the principles of breathing, listening, awareness of thought and visualising light as a way of engaging our self healing capacity through intention. I hope you enjoy it.

Zoe Baranowski is the director of the Reflexology Studio in Elsternwick and has been practicing Reflexology for over 8 years having been an avid recipient of the treatment for many years. For those who don't know reflexology is the application of pressure to specific energy and pressure points primarily on the feet but also on the hands. It is so much more than a foot massage!

Anthony is my colleague at North Western Osteopathic Clinic and by all accounts is a bit of a gun when it comes to osteopathy. What makes a great practitioner in any modality is a great attitude and a passion for learning and helping people and Anthony has this in spades. 

As for osteopathy there is still a lot of misconceptions around what it is and what it does so Anthony really helps to clarify the role of the osteopath in health aswell as dysfunction.

Anthony is available at North Western Osteopathic clinic in Avondale Heights

I met Richmond 5 years ago at a gathering for conscious manhood called menergy. What struck me about Richmond at the time was his integrity along with his awesomely uplifting spirit and I was intrigued when I heard about the Trauma Release Exercise (TRE) workshops he was facilitating. This episode, however, isn't simply an introduction to and explanation of TRE, Richmond takes it much further and deeper than that and outlines a blueprint for consciously embodied healing, a sense of somatic spirituality. This is a powerful and moving episode and it was an honour to hold space for Richmond's journey, albeit with little input required from me.
