- 1:37Speaker 2: Welcome, Annie, Thank you so much for having me and.
- 1:40Speaker 1: Thank you for joining us and sharing your wisdom and
- 1:42Speaker 1: your experience. Annie, please share with us your path and
- 1:46Speaker 1: the events that led you on your personal healing journey.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Well, some of you may have heard about a shaman's death,
- 1:54Speaker 2: and I certainly had a shaman's death. I was twenty
- 1:58Speaker 2: six seven years old in nineteen eighty and I was
- 2:01Speaker 2: working at a restaurant and there was a gas leak
- 2:04Speaker 2: and it sent eighty people to the hospital, including me,
- 2:08Speaker 2: and I had what was called what they termed as
- 2:12Speaker 2: permanent central nervous system damage and ended up in the
- 2:15Speaker 2: hospital for three months. And so everything I knew about
- 2:19Speaker 2: who I was completely tipped over and almost took me out.
- 2:24Speaker 2: And I ended up fortunately finding one of the first
- 2:28Speaker 2: environmental medicine doctors in the world at the time. And
- 2:32Speaker 2: I was diagnosed with really multiple chemical sensitivity because I
- 2:38Speaker 2: had been damnaged. My central nervous system was damaged and
- 2:41Speaker 2: I couldn't tolerate chemicals. I was literally the bubble case,
- 2:46Speaker 2: and so I you know, it was really hard. I
- 2:50Speaker 2: moved ten times in four years and finally found a
- 2:54Speaker 2: healthy home, got well enough to have my daughter, thankfully, gratefully,
- 2:59Speaker 2: and I ended up having a very prestigious career in
- 3:04Speaker 2: writing green living books. I was a best selling author
- 3:06Speaker 2: of a number of books on green living, and because
- 3:10Speaker 2: I had to learn how to live without chemicals.
- 3:13Speaker 3: And.
- 3:16Speaker 2: So I was just sort of ahead of the curve
- 3:18Speaker 2: in that my first book was clean and green, and
- 3:20Speaker 2: it was the first time those two words were ever
- 3:23Speaker 2: put together. But people who are as sick as I
- 3:28Speaker 2: tend to really push the envelope, and I did because
- 3:32Speaker 2: I just wasn't Western medicine wasn't helping me particularly, and
- 3:37Speaker 2: I ended up, outside of isolating myself from chemicals, I
- 3:41Speaker 2: still was pretty vulnerable, and so I ended up experimenting
- 3:46Speaker 2: with some energy work and I started feeling a little
- 3:49Speaker 2: better and I did more. I became a reiki master.
- 3:52Speaker 2: I did sort of more extensive training and did a
- 3:55Speaker 2: lot of work with Kundalini, and I found just remarkable benefits,
- 4:00Speaker 2: and so you know, I did a lot of training.
- 4:03Speaker 2: I kept my day job, and by around twenty twelve
- 4:09Speaker 2: twenty thirteen, I remember talking to Bardotunku Rimpochet, a Tibetan
- 4:14Speaker 2: Buddhist rampochet who lived near me, and asked him about
- 4:18Speaker 2: his thoughts about the state of our environment, and he said,
- 4:21Speaker 2: you know, it's just a reflection of our consciousness and
- 4:24Speaker 2: that has such a deep impact. And so my work
- 4:29Speaker 2: is really the first part of my career has been
- 4:31Speaker 2: healing the outer world, and the second part of my
- 4:34Speaker 2: career has been healing the inner world. And that really
- 4:37Speaker 2: brings me to where I am today, I guess is
- 4:40Speaker 2: trying to do both.
- 4:42Speaker 1: You've been called the godmother of green? Who gave you
- 4:46Speaker 1: this lovely title? And what does it mean to you?
- 4:49Speaker 2: I was called the Godmother of Green by her last
- 4:54Speaker 2: name is Trespiccio. She was an editor at Martha Stewart
- 4:59Speaker 2: and she I remember that actually in a radio show,
- 5:04Speaker 2: and it was I mean, I really was one of
- 5:08Speaker 2: the seminal, you know, first people that really talked about
- 5:13Speaker 2: non toxic living. And so I was in fact considered
- 5:17Speaker 2: the top and green living person in the country by
- 5:20Speaker 2: Body and Soul magazine back back in the day, you know,
- 5:23Speaker 2: So it was it was you know, it wasn't prescient
- 5:27Speaker 2: on my part. I just because of my poisoning, I
- 5:30Speaker 2: really learned how to live this way. And that's that's why.
- 5:35Speaker 1: How did you recognize your calling as an energy healer?
- 5:38Speaker 2: Well, this is an interesting story that for me anyway, Well,
- 5:44Speaker 2: it's it's actually the seminal evolution of In twenty fourteen,
- 5:49Speaker 2: I was awakened on the Hunter moon full moon, and
- 5:54Speaker 2: in the middle of the night, and I was given
- 5:56Speaker 2: a healing that is absolutely the most profound healing I've
- 6:01Speaker 2: ever had, and I've had enough, had enough healings. I
- 6:04Speaker 2: knew I was having a healing, and I ended up
- 6:09Speaker 2: eventually going back to sleep, but it was so tender
- 6:12Speaker 2: and so insightful, and so compassionate and kind towards me
- 6:16Speaker 2: and who I was that I woke up the next
- 6:19Speaker 2: morning and I thought to myself, Oh my gosh, that
- 6:22Speaker 2: must have been the Divine Mother. I don't know what
- 6:24Speaker 2: else it could have been. And this is me, a
- 6:27Speaker 2: person who's never been a church. I didn't even hardly
- 6:29Speaker 2: know what the Divine Mother was I but that was
- 6:33Speaker 2: sort of the feeling I had about it. And I
- 6:36Speaker 2: went underground with that for the next few months, just
- 6:40Speaker 2: trying to process what a profound event that was for me.
- 6:44Speaker 2: And I ended up having a healing trade with a
- 6:50Speaker 2: friend of mine who's a really good healer, and I thought, gosh,
- 6:53Speaker 2: I wonder if what happened I could have set up
- 6:57Speaker 2: what happened to me, happened to her. I asked for
- 7:01Speaker 2: it because I find more and more that I have.
- 7:03Speaker 2: You have to ask, you know, ask spirit for this.
- 7:07Speaker 2: And this ball of light about six feet off the
- 7:11Speaker 2: table was my friend in all her best attributes, so
- 7:16Speaker 2: all the wisdom about her. And I realized, oh my gosh,
- 7:20Speaker 2: it was my soul that visited me and gave me
- 7:22Speaker 2: a healing that night, and it was the soul that
- 7:25Speaker 2: was going to give this woman a healing. And I
- 7:28Speaker 2: asked her soul to give her a healing, and it
- 7:29Speaker 2: was just knocked her socks off. The wisdom about it
- 7:33Speaker 2: was so profound, and I just ended up giving a
- 7:37Speaker 2: few other healings of asking the soul to give the healing,
- 7:41Speaker 2: and I just never looked back because there are a
- 7:43Speaker 2: couple things about it. One is I wasn't the doer anymore,
- 7:46Speaker 2: and I never felt comfortable being the doer, even as
- 7:49Speaker 2: well trained as I was. This is totally giving over
- 7:52Speaker 2: to spirit to bring the healing. And so that was
- 7:57Speaker 2: that was really good. And it's just that the healings
- 7:59Speaker 2: were so deep, and I ended up it was a
- 8:04Speaker 2: huge word of mouth where one healing led to the
- 8:06Speaker 2: next to the next and I would beay, I am a
- 8:08Speaker 2: full time healer.
- 8:10Speaker 1: You had mentioned Raki earlier. What are the modalities that
- 8:13Speaker 1: you employ in your healing practice?
- 8:15Speaker 2: Well, at this point, it's really an original practice. I
- 8:21Speaker 2: as I say, I'm well trained and so did a
- 8:24Speaker 2: lot of sound healing and all these various things. But
- 8:27Speaker 2: as I started, this was really an original healing the
- 8:30Speaker 2: divine mother modality. I called it the divine Mother modality
- 8:34Speaker 2: at that time because it was I was calling the
- 8:37Speaker 2: soul the divine mother and a person's divine mother, that is.
- 8:41Speaker 2: And since then, you know, I've given thousands of healings
- 8:46Speaker 2: and it's evolved by a very clairvoyant. I'm just very
- 8:50Speaker 2: gifted in that way. So I can see how energy
- 8:53Speaker 2: moves in a person. And when I see that, and
- 8:57Speaker 2: that's been my teacher. So I've been learning. The teacher
- 9:01Speaker 2: has been my experience, and I've added more things in
- 9:05Speaker 2: because they've come in organically.
- 9:08Speaker 1: Please describe what a sound healing session is like.
- 9:11Speaker 2: A sound healing session is very uh, it's it's very somatic.
- 9:19Speaker 2: And I have singing bowls that have have handles and
- 9:25Speaker 2: so you could hold them over the table. I do
- 9:29Speaker 2: much more sound healing in person than I have done
- 9:32Speaker 2: it do on zoom, but you tune in with your
- 9:37Speaker 2: which I do shamanic sound healing, and so I can
- 9:41Speaker 2: tune into where there's an energy that needs needs something.
- 9:44Speaker 2: I then try to figure out what is the what's
- 9:48Speaker 2: the sort of shamanic percussion instrument that would be helpful.
- 9:52Speaker 2: Would it be a singing bowl, would it be a
- 9:54Speaker 2: feather even, would it be clapping or drum? Would what
- 10:00Speaker 2: would be useful? Or would it be voice? And the
- 10:04Speaker 2: voice can transmit energy like no other, and so I
- 10:07Speaker 2: will often do a shamanic sound healing with a person
- 10:10Speaker 2: where I pick up the enter the low vibration energy
- 10:13Speaker 2: with my voice and my voice transmutes it, and so
- 10:17Speaker 2: the end of that sound healing with the voice is
- 10:21Speaker 2: a much higher vibration and it's really really deep. I
- 10:26Speaker 2: also use tuning forks sometimes, and it's extremely intuitive from
- 10:32Speaker 2: the healer's perspective.
- 10:34Speaker 1: One of the recurring themes in my life, especially since
- 10:38Speaker 1: my late forties when much of my spiritual path reopened,
- 10:43Speaker 1: has been the gift of synchronicity, These messages and these
- 10:46Speaker 1: opportunities showing up, and I've had free choices. I could
- 10:50Speaker 1: either say not right now. I could say yes, but
- 10:53Speaker 1: not right now, or I could say yes with the
- 10:55Speaker 1: capital why. And every time I said yes with the
- 10:57Speaker 1: capital why, the next one would come and the next one.
- 11:01Speaker 1: Have you had that experience also, it sounds like it I.
- 11:04Speaker 2: Have, definitely, I've never I like the way you are
- 11:07Speaker 2: looking at it, though, yes with a capital y. I
- 11:11Speaker 2: think that another maybe the way I have rephrased it
- 11:16Speaker 2: for myself is the or of the syncreticities. I love those,
- 11:21Speaker 2: but then also asking for evidence so that that I'm
- 11:25Speaker 2: actually having a spiritual experience about something, and then suddenly
- 11:30Speaker 2: the things will start happening in my life that are
- 11:33Speaker 2: synchronistic to what I was trying to, what I was
- 11:36Speaker 2: asking for healing around or something like that.
- 11:39Speaker 4: One.
- 11:39Speaker 2: So the synchronistic is just you know, my soul at
- 11:43Speaker 2: higher self spirit bringing things to me in a synchronistic way,
- 11:47Speaker 2: which is always the key is just making sure you
- 11:51Speaker 2: pay attention right. And then the other is my asking
- 11:55Speaker 2: for certain things to happen. And that's also synchronistic in
- 11:58Speaker 2: a different kind of way. But but that's more of
- 12:00Speaker 2: an evidence based Does that make sense?
- 12:03Speaker 1: Absolutely? And I agree with you one hundred percent. That's
- 12:05Speaker 1: the way it's been for me. Also, before we discuss
- 12:08Speaker 1: your latest book, Awakening Prana Nine Steps to Regenerative Self Transformation,
- 12:14Speaker 1: please tell us about your previous books and what you
- 12:17Speaker 1: offer readers.
- 12:18Speaker 2: Well, my previous books were all on green living, and
- 12:21Speaker 2: they are all very very practical books on how to
- 12:25Speaker 2: live in a non toxic way. So if you have
- 12:28Speaker 2: to clean the bath tob how do you do it
- 12:30Speaker 2: without giving yourself a headache? And all that kind of thing,
- 12:34Speaker 2: And so it's really important, like, for example, how do
- 12:39Speaker 2: you get rid of tics without without chemicals or you
- 12:43Speaker 2: know that kind of thing. It's it's learning how to
- 12:46Speaker 2: live navigator our world in a way that is healthier
- 12:50Speaker 2: for you. You know. I read a wonderful book that I
- 12:53Speaker 2: love so much called The Hathorne Material, and it was
- 12:56Speaker 2: Tom Kenyon, sound Healer, channeling in the Hathors, which are
- 13:00Speaker 2: these huge beings. So I work with the Heathors also,
- 13:02Speaker 2: and I did for Awakening Prana, And they always talk
- 13:07Speaker 2: that one of the most important corners of our well
- 13:13Speaker 2: being is to have a clean environment. And so I
- 13:18Speaker 2: feel like, even though I'm coming into the spiritual angle now,
- 13:22Speaker 2: having a clean environment and not having your physical body
- 13:25Speaker 2: fighting an overload of chemicals is a very important part
- 13:30Speaker 2: of your ability to be in flow. And so you know,
- 13:34Speaker 2: I don't my books are out of print now, but
- 13:40Speaker 2: I'm thinking of combining them all and putting the book
- 13:43Speaker 2: out called Greenifi Everything, and this the new Year, which
- 13:46Speaker 2: I think I'm going to do my sort of bit.
- 13:48Speaker 2: It's all really good, evergreen content, and so you know,
- 13:54Speaker 2: I've worked very very hard and coming up with really good,
- 13:58Speaker 2: good content. So that's it's sort of a that's my
- 14:01Speaker 2: past career. But I'm going to bring bring the book
- 14:03Speaker 2: into compile it to bring it into into fruition.
- 14:09Speaker 1: So let me ask you for one green solution. I
- 14:11Speaker 1: know in my neighborhood here in Queens, New York, a
- 14:14Speaker 1: lot of people are dealing with black mold. What do
- 14:16Speaker 1: you have that's green for black mold?
- 14:18Speaker 2: Well, black mold, Well, that's a little complicated because I
- 14:23Speaker 2: you know, I have my mold, the things I do
- 14:25Speaker 2: for mold, but I can't say that it's professionally mitigated.
- 14:29Speaker 2: I haven't had it tested to find. But one of
- 14:32Speaker 2: the best things I know of for mold is tea trioil.
- 14:36Speaker 2: It kills all sorts of fungus, all stage and so
- 14:40Speaker 2: to make a spray bottle of like a teaspoon of
- 14:44Speaker 2: tea trioil and a couple of a cup of water,
- 14:46Speaker 2: so in a spray bottle like I remember some friend
- 14:50Speaker 2: of mine gave me a desk that had been in
- 14:51Speaker 2: their garage or something was very musty and I sprayed
- 14:55Speaker 2: it with treoil and I didn't rinse it, and it
- 14:59Speaker 2: was just astonished wishing how in the day the musty
- 15:02Speaker 2: smell was completely gone.
- 15:05Speaker 1: Thank you for sharing that. And I think you definitely
- 15:07Speaker 1: should put all of your books together next year and
- 15:09Speaker 1: put them together and publish them again, because I think
- 15:11Speaker 1: our world needs all of this green work and this
- 15:14Speaker 1: green cleaning, and personally, my wife is allergic to everything,
- 15:19Speaker 1: so we have to be super green in our house.
- 15:21Speaker 1: And I'm glad you shared that with us.
- 15:23Speaker 2: Thank you, you know, no, no, thank you for the encouragement.
- 15:25Speaker 2: I will do that because I hate having everybody having
- 15:28Speaker 2: to reinvent the wheel when it's already done.
- 15:31Speaker 1: Absolutely. What inspired your latest book, Awakening Prana Nine Steps
- 15:37Speaker 1: to Regenerative Self Transformation.
- 15:40Speaker 2: Well, the inspiration for it is my genuine fascination with
- 15:46Speaker 2: the energy buddy. You know, I was trained as a
- 15:49Speaker 2: healer to work with the chakras, and it was very
- 15:52Speaker 2: static and it was I mean not that chakras themselves
- 15:56Speaker 2: are static, but it was it missed what I've I've
- 16:00Speaker 2: come to understand is the flow of the entire energy body.
- 16:04Speaker 2: And so this is to me absolute obsession is an
- 16:09Speaker 2: extreme word, but I wouldn't say obsession, extremely interested. And
- 16:14Speaker 2: I've been an eagle eyed about the energy body. And
- 16:18Speaker 2: I think again it comes back to my poisoning, as
- 16:20Speaker 2: I've wanted to heal the flow of energy in my
- 16:24Speaker 2: physical body and how do I do that to fully
- 16:28Speaker 2: recover from a very severe innert injury that I had.
- 16:34Speaker 2: And so I about, oh gosh, twenty years ago, I
- 16:40Speaker 2: found a stone in my driveway and it looked like
- 16:43Speaker 2: the Old Man on the Mountain. For those of you
- 16:45Speaker 2: that are old enough, you would remember reading about maybe
- 16:49Speaker 2: the Old Man on the Mountain that was in New Hampshire.
- 16:51Speaker 2: And it was a picture. I mean, it was an
- 16:53Speaker 2: image carved into the naturally carved into the mountain that
- 16:57Speaker 2: looked a very Native American looking man. It since has disintegrated,
- 17:02Speaker 2: but it had so the stone in my driveway had
- 17:06Speaker 2: had eyes and a mouth and a nose. And I
- 17:10Speaker 2: just was a creative type. And I propped the book
- 17:13Speaker 2: up next to my computer and I started looking in
- 17:18Speaker 2: this the eyes of this stone, and I started typing,
- 17:22Speaker 2: and I would just type fast, and I would type
- 17:25Speaker 2: and type and type. I mean I type really fast.
- 17:27Speaker 2: So I uh. Over the years, I started calling these
- 17:32Speaker 2: the Stoneman Diaries. And over the years I also started realizing,
- 17:38Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, I'm learning so much wisdom from I
- 17:42Speaker 2: started realizing I was really channeling in a being and
- 17:46Speaker 2: I'm learning, and he is teaching me about the energy body.
- 17:51Speaker 2: And so the Awakening Prana is all the teachings that
- 17:56Speaker 2: came from Stoneman's. If they are from the Stoneman Diaries,
- 18:00Speaker 2: they might understanding. The wisdom about the energy body coming
- 18:04Speaker 2: from Stomanus just absolutely breathtaking, and so I wanted to
- 18:08Speaker 2: compile it in a way that I could present to people.
- 18:13Speaker 1: Many of our listeners are aware of the meaning of
- 18:16Speaker 1: the word prana, but for the few who do not know,
- 18:19Speaker 1: please share what the Sanskrit word means and how it
- 18:22Speaker 1: applies to this work.
- 18:24Speaker 2: Well, it's really about life force energy. So the work
- 18:29Speaker 2: connecting to your own life force energy is the key
- 18:32Speaker 2: of this book of Awakening Prana. And I have nine
- 18:37Speaker 2: steps of working with your energy body that includes connecting
- 18:42Speaker 2: to your higher self, for example, and includes connecting to
- 18:46Speaker 2: the sacred elements, and that actually connects you so that
- 18:51Speaker 2: you have much more access to your life, to your
- 18:54Speaker 2: life force energy.
- 18:56Speaker 1: And specifically prana. That the word prana, I know it
- 18:59Speaker 1: to me. The breath.
- 19:01Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you could also find it. I'm not
- 19:05Speaker 2: using this in that way. I'm not saying it's the breath,
- 19:08Speaker 2: even though it is the breath. Also, of course it's
- 19:11Speaker 2: your life force energy that comes from source, so that
- 19:15Speaker 2: it's like it's it is. I mean it is breath, right,
- 19:19Speaker 2: a person dies and they stop breathing and it's gone.
- 19:22Speaker 2: I just don't quite identify it that way because this
- 19:25Speaker 2: is not a practice for breathwork.
- 19:28Speaker 1: Understood in awakening. Prana. You say that a matrix of
- 19:33Speaker 1: light holds the key to healing. Please elaborate on this
- 19:37Speaker 1: concept and how it connects to our well being.
- 19:40Speaker 2: Yeah, we have a what I call the central axis.
- 19:44Speaker 2: It's a light of a line of energy that comes
- 19:47Speaker 2: down through us. It comes into the top of her
- 19:49Speaker 2: head and down out of the perineum, and it carries
- 19:55Speaker 2: our perfect blueprint of who we are. It carries our DNA,
- 20:00Speaker 2: it carries are the quantum self of our perfection. It
- 20:04Speaker 2: carries source energy. And so that is the ultimately the
- 20:10Speaker 2: nine steps get us to the point where we can
- 20:13Speaker 2: have the flow of that energy come out to where
- 20:17Speaker 2: we need it. And and there's a big premise about
- 20:21Speaker 2: from from Stoneman who is a heath or one of
- 20:24Speaker 2: the sound big sound dealer heath or beings that and
- 20:29Speaker 2: and it is through many different sort of ancient more
- 20:32Speaker 2: ancient texts about something called the axiotonal grids, which are
- 20:37Speaker 2: the way we as humans connect to the light of
- 20:40Speaker 2: source and the it's been depleted in our culture because
- 20:47Speaker 2: where it requires to connect to this energy, our energy
- 20:53Speaker 2: body requires that we connect to this bioelectric system of
- 20:58Speaker 2: who we are. That it requires a a certain amount
- 21:01Speaker 2: of yen energy, and it requires a certain amount of
- 21:04Speaker 2: yang energy. And it's like a car. So if you
- 21:07Speaker 2: imagine a car battery that has the positive or the
- 21:11Speaker 2: and the negative charges, the yin and the yang are
- 21:14Speaker 2: the equivalent of the negative and positive charges. And when
- 21:18Speaker 2: we have enough of those in equal balance, our whole
- 21:21Speaker 2: energy body starts moving and it enables us to really
- 21:25Speaker 2: connect to this life force energy and coming through that
- 21:28Speaker 2: central axis. And it's so it's a very very powerful energy.
- 21:35Speaker 2: But what what the research really shows that that we
- 21:40Speaker 2: the more and more disconnected we have become to the planet,
- 21:43Speaker 2: the more and more disconnected we are from other Earth
- 21:46Speaker 2: to that incredible feminine energy. And so we're not charging,
- 21:50Speaker 2: we're not We're not charge our bodies energy. Bodies aren't
- 21:53Speaker 2: charging properly, and we need to bring in more of
- 21:57Speaker 2: that yen energy in order for us to of this
- 22:00Speaker 2: bioelectric system of who we are to connect.
- 22:04Speaker 1: And we'll discuss more about those issues in our next segment.

- 25:40Speaker 1: Back on Vox Novus, my guest this week, Annie Bond.
- 25:44Speaker 1: We're talking about her book Awakening Prana, Nine Steps to
- 25:48Speaker 1: Regenerative Self Transformation. Annie, many people experience fatigue and a
- 25:56Speaker 1: lack of vitality. Does Awakening Prana explain why this happens
- 26:01Speaker 1: and how reconnecting to this matrix can help.
- 26:05Speaker 2: This is exactly right, because the we are not functioning
- 26:11Speaker 2: on all cylinders in our lives anymore, because this, as
- 26:16Speaker 2: I was mentioning earlier, this bioelectric charge that we need
- 26:22Speaker 2: of the yin and the yang and the negative and
- 26:23Speaker 2: positive voltages, it has to connect. And if we're depleted,
- 26:29Speaker 2: we're just not this. Our energy body isn't in flow,
- 26:33Speaker 2: and so we are tired and exhausted, and as you
- 26:37Speaker 2: can in the nine steps in the book, it go
- 26:40Speaker 2: walks you through all the steps to get the whole
- 26:43Speaker 2: system charged so that you then can again as you
- 26:48Speaker 2: imagine this as a car like drive without any hindrance
- 26:53Speaker 2: and being in much better flow. It's the other thing
- 26:57Speaker 2: about it is that source energy can really here heal well.
- 27:01Speaker 2: It's sort of a fountain of youth almost that connecting
- 27:04Speaker 2: to that kind of energy. And so as you enable
- 27:07Speaker 2: the energy to come into your system, you end up
- 27:10Speaker 2: being able to push away that low vibration density that
- 27:15Speaker 2: is that is part of that drags you down and
- 27:18Speaker 2: our suffering and all of that that is, you know,
- 27:21Speaker 2: part of the our being being human. But there's doesn't
- 27:25Speaker 2: We don't have to have that low vibration density holding
- 27:28Speaker 2: us back from being in full vitality.
- 27:32Speaker 1: Let's talk a little bit more about bioelectrical capacity. Can
- 27:36Speaker 1: you sort of define it for us and how it
- 27:38Speaker 1: affects our health and our connection to the universe.
- 27:42Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean I think I just have to
- 27:44Speaker 2: come back to the idea of the car battery that
- 27:46Speaker 2: if you don't have the one of the negative or
- 27:49Speaker 2: the positive batteries, enough of it and an equal balance,
- 27:56Speaker 2: you're not going to get that car started, or you
- 27:59Speaker 2: may it may spot along, but it's not going to
- 28:02Speaker 2: be in full in full flow. And so there are
- 28:06Speaker 2: what I call three major ways that we can rebalance
- 28:10Speaker 2: our yin and yang. And in the physical body, it's
- 28:14Speaker 2: the yin feminine, the yang masculine. And there are three
- 28:17Speaker 2: major ways that I work with people too in the
- 28:21Speaker 2: book helps a person learn to recharge these batteries. One
- 28:27Speaker 2: is to by connecting to Mother Earth and Father's Son
- 28:30Speaker 2: and asking these two energies to come into equal balance.
- 28:35Speaker 2: Many are many women are actually more deficient in the
- 28:38Speaker 2: in the Father's Son than they are Mother Earth. More
- 28:42Speaker 2: men often are more deficient in Mother Earth and Father's Son.
- 28:46Speaker 2: But these are very primary yin and yang energies that
- 28:51Speaker 2: we need in order to function well. On the planet
- 28:55Speaker 2: bring us, they bring us into polarity. Then on the
- 28:59Speaker 2: soul of well, we have our soul Mother and our
- 29:02Speaker 2: soul father, the feminine side of our soul the masculine
- 29:06Speaker 2: side of our soul. This is another energy that is
- 29:10Speaker 2: very very important to get balanced, and it's very often
- 29:14Speaker 2: imbalanced because we pattern ourselves after our parents of origin,
- 29:19Speaker 2: our family of origin. This is nothing negative about our parents,
- 29:24Speaker 2: but we're all born to unhealed mothers and unhealed fathers,
- 29:27Speaker 2: and we all become unhealed children. And so the part
- 29:32Speaker 2: of that my healing practice is that we do that
- 29:36Speaker 2: the healed mother can come bring healing to the healed
- 29:39Speaker 2: mother in our soul is not the same as our
- 29:41Speaker 2: birth mother, and once we start working with that energy,
- 29:45Speaker 2: we can invite in that healed mother energy to supersede
- 29:48Speaker 2: where we may be depleted, and the same with the
- 29:51Speaker 2: father energy. So a good example of that was a
- 29:55Speaker 2: client of mind who'd beaten a lot by his birth father,
- 29:59Speaker 2: and so his soul father had a huge role for
- 30:02Speaker 2: his healing to bring in enough masculine energy from his
- 30:06Speaker 2: soul to compensate for where he never got enough of
- 30:10Speaker 2: the male energy. So that's the second batch of coming
- 30:15Speaker 2: into balances with a soul mother and soul father and
- 30:18Speaker 2: each for each of us individually. And then the third
- 30:21Speaker 2: way is to work with the currents of the divine
- 30:25Speaker 2: Mother and the currents of the divine Father. So source
- 30:28Speaker 2: has the mother father male female aside to it, and
- 30:33Speaker 2: we as the currents of the divine mother to come
- 30:38Speaker 2: into balance with the currents of the divine Father. And
- 30:42Speaker 2: again the balance is so important, having enough of the
- 30:45Speaker 2: Inn and enough of the Yang and having them an
- 30:47Speaker 2: equal balance.
- 30:49Speaker 1: I remember in the nineteen nineties at times when I
- 30:53Speaker 1: felt out of balance, I would walk out in the
- 30:56Speaker 1: grass without shoes, barefoot and feel myself connected to the Mother,
- 31:01Speaker 1: to Mother Earth. Yeah, and then also look up into
- 31:04Speaker 1: the sky and feel myself connecting to the Sun, and
- 31:08Speaker 1: I stop myself in balance between Mother Earth and Father
- 31:11Speaker 1: Sky or Father's Son, and it was such a healing
- 31:14Speaker 1: experience for me. It would revitalize me and it would
- 31:18Speaker 1: put me back on a positive path. Is that one
- 31:20Speaker 1: of the exercises.
- 31:21Speaker 2: You recommend, Absolutely, that's just absolutely spot on. So one
- 31:26Speaker 2: of the things I do before I even I give
- 31:28Speaker 2: any healing is I send love and gratitude to the
- 31:31Speaker 2: heart of the Earth. And I asked Mother Earth to
- 31:33Speaker 2: send her beautiful energy up to our earthstar chakra and
- 31:36Speaker 2: the energy goes where it needs to go. Send love
- 31:38Speaker 2: and gratitude to the heart of the Son as father
- 31:40Speaker 2: Son to come down to our soul star chakra and
- 31:43Speaker 2: the energy goes wherever it needs to go. That is
- 31:47Speaker 2: absolutely key. I try to do something along those lines.
- 31:49Speaker 1: Every day Awakening Prana promises to help people reclaim their power.
- 31:56Speaker 1: What kind of power are we talking about here? How
- 32:00Speaker 1: does the program achieve this?
- 32:02Speaker 2: Well? I think it's important to look at power in
- 32:06Speaker 2: this instance as the ability. To the title of the book,
- 32:12Speaker 2: it's more generative, right, it's or generative self transformation. That
- 32:17Speaker 2: the ability to connect to that life force energy, that
- 32:24Speaker 2: is our true life force energy. It gives us the
- 32:26Speaker 2: power to do that. To reach that power, I guess,
- 32:30Speaker 2: is maybe the way to put it, that the power
- 32:33Speaker 2: of our true quantum selves, perfect blueprint of who we are,
- 32:38Speaker 2: can come through. We're set it up so that that
- 32:40Speaker 2: can come through to us to bring healing to different
- 32:44Speaker 2: parts of ourselves.
- 32:46Speaker 1: Can you share some examples of how people have used
- 32:49Speaker 1: Awakening Prama to address specific health challenges or improve their
- 32:54Speaker 1: overall well being.
- 32:57Speaker 2: Let me give you an example of the overall well
- 32:59Speaker 2: being the and yes, I can a lot of help
- 33:08Speaker 2: for people with high blood pressure, for example. But one
- 33:12Speaker 2: of my favorite stories that were so vivid was I
- 33:15Speaker 2: lead retreats in Sodona and once I have for the
- 33:19Speaker 2: last this will be my third year and the and
- 33:24Speaker 2: we go to the Yen and the Yang vortex is
- 33:26Speaker 2: because I teach the awakening prano away these nine steps
- 33:30Speaker 2: when I'm there, and it's we have the inner vortex
- 33:33Speaker 2: of trying to come into the en and the yang balance.
- 33:36Speaker 2: But then we sort of parallel that with coming to
- 33:39Speaker 2: the yen energies in the in the Kachina Kachina woman
- 33:44Speaker 2: vortex for example in Sodona, and and also then the
- 33:49Speaker 2: masculine vortex energy, which would be in that case is
- 33:52Speaker 2: the courthouse butte vortex. And there was a woman, she's
- 33:58Speaker 2: in our early seventies, and she completely transformed when she
- 34:05Speaker 2: was at the courthouse, but she was very depleted. It
- 34:09Speaker 2: turns out in enough healed mail energy and for her
- 34:13Speaker 2: to experience mail energy in herself for the first time
- 34:18Speaker 2: transformed her life. It just absolutely transformed her life. She's
- 34:21Speaker 2: been a different person ever since. And you know, yang
- 34:24Speaker 2: energy is really it's important. Like the guy I was
- 34:27Speaker 2: telling you about who had been beaten by his father.
- 34:30Speaker 2: He was a beautiful furniture maker who is very creative
- 34:34Speaker 2: and that was very in but he could not bring
- 34:37Speaker 2: his work to market. And once he had enough mail
- 34:41Speaker 2: energy Yang energy superseding that injured part of himself, he
- 34:47Speaker 2: suddenly was able to go to crafts spares and just go,
- 34:51Speaker 2: you know, make a very successful career for himself, because
- 34:54Speaker 2: you need that kind of yang energy to jump forward
- 34:58Speaker 2: and go out, you know. And so this woman had
- 35:02Speaker 2: been in a similar kind of way in the sense
- 35:05Speaker 2: that she was very creative and very very in but
- 35:09Speaker 2: she was not able to push her self out into
- 35:14Speaker 2: the world in a way that was authoritative about herself.
- 35:19Speaker 2: And so that changed for her. In terms of physical
- 35:25Speaker 2: health things, there are a lot of different ways. Like
- 35:28Speaker 2: one of the things I have people do when they're
- 35:31Speaker 2: working with these nine steps. We have a number of
- 35:34Speaker 2: different ways of times where we meditate on different things
- 35:38Speaker 2: is to ask the intention for a healing of an issue,
- 35:42Speaker 2: so for example, as the intention of healing the high
- 35:47Speaker 2: blood pressure, or intention of healing a hearing problem, or
- 35:52Speaker 2: various different things. And so having the intention really helps.
- 35:56Speaker 2: But Whiz, what the process does is it opens up
- 36:02Speaker 2: the door to removing the obstacle, energetic obstacles to the clearing.
- 36:08Speaker 2: Whatever it was that caused the imbalance to begin with,
- 36:12Speaker 2: it gets cleared out, and then that source energy, that
- 36:15Speaker 2: life force energy can go directly to that area and
- 36:18Speaker 2: bring the healing.
- 36:20Speaker 1: How long does it typically take for people to start
- 36:23Speaker 1: feeling the positive effects of reconnecting to the matrix of
- 36:26Speaker 1: light through awakening prana.
- 36:29Speaker 2: Well, that's a good question. I think it's people can
- 36:35Speaker 2: feel great just from I do a lot of sound
- 36:38Speaker 2: healing that are original sound healing that's all on my sight,
- 36:42Speaker 2: by the way, like self Love, there's a beautiful self
- 36:45Speaker 2: love healing. Seven Keys to Awakening Prana is another one
- 36:50Speaker 2: of the meditation's sound healing meditations on the site, and
- 36:55Speaker 2: they're part of the there in the book. They're QR
- 36:57Speaker 2: codes to all of these, and you could just feel
- 37:00Speaker 2: so much better, Like the Seven Keys to Awakening Prana.
- 37:03Speaker 2: I used to listen to that every night before I
- 37:05Speaker 2: went to bed because it would is and I wake
- 37:07Speaker 2: up in the morning and want to listen to it. It
- 37:09Speaker 2: was extremely powerful in making me feel so much more aligned.
- 37:13Speaker 2: Then there is the going, you know, really studying the
- 37:17Speaker 2: nine steps and making a process of working with it,
- 37:23Speaker 2: Like I have a seven minute meditation that gets you
- 37:26Speaker 2: through all the nine steps, and people get really transformed
- 37:32Speaker 2: doing that all the time. Like one woman I know
- 37:34Speaker 2: who's actually very famous, she does it every single morning.
- 37:37Speaker 2: Just that's it. Seven minutes, Does it and she is
- 37:41Speaker 2: her spiritual growth has shot up like a rocket ship.
- 37:45Speaker 2: I just observed it, and I know it has something
- 37:48Speaker 2: to do with this also, And part of the seven
- 37:51Speaker 2: Minutes is connecting to the heart of the Earth and
- 37:53Speaker 2: connecting to the heart of the sun.
- 37:56Speaker 1: Beautiful, beautiful. You had mentioned the Awakening Product retreats that
- 38:02Speaker 1: you hold in Sedona. Your next one is coming this February.
- 38:05Speaker 1: What may participants look forward to, Well, it's.
- 38:09Speaker 2: Really such an incredible community building up of us also
- 38:15Speaker 2: exploring the in and the yang energies in the earth
- 38:18Speaker 2: right with the vortexas and I work very hard to
- 38:22Speaker 2: make the book Awakening Product very very experiential. So we have,
- 38:27Speaker 2: you know, maybe twenty hours of teaching that I do,
- 38:31Speaker 2: but it's like going going walks to connect to the
- 38:35Speaker 2: elements earth, firewater, air, and ether and experiencing sound healing
- 38:40Speaker 2: around these nine steps and the nine steps have spent
- 38:44Speaker 2: I've spent a lot of time with the nine steps
- 38:48Speaker 2: so that it's a complete practice. You know, in yoga
- 38:52Speaker 2: they talk about Koreas like I'm going to do a
- 38:55Speaker 2: special Yoga Korea. This is like a Korea. I've made
- 39:00Speaker 2: it a five day set of working very hard to
- 39:05Speaker 2: make it a fully coherent practice that you could do
- 39:10Speaker 2: for the rest of your life, and it will sustain
- 39:13Speaker 2: you through thicker thin Really, I mean, it's a real
- 39:17Speaker 2: It connects you to the fountain of youth, it really does,
- 39:21Speaker 2: because that's that is your true quantum perfect self.
- 39:25Speaker 1: Right absolutely. Sedona is one of my favorite places on
- 39:30Speaker 1: the earth and there several times it's so beautiful. How
- 39:33Speaker 1: can our listeners find out more about the.
- 39:35Speaker 2: Retreat Awakeningprana dot Com will have go to the events tab.
- 39:40Speaker 2: There's also at the top of the homepage. There's a
- 39:43Speaker 2: link directly to it. And so I'd love to please

- 39:51Speaker 2: we found a great place and it has you know,
- 39:55Speaker 2: lots and lots of trails or five labyrinths on the
- 39:57Speaker 2: on the property, there are lots of vortexas an organic
- 40:01Speaker 2: farm that provides all the organic food and it's just wonderful.
- 40:05Speaker 1: And please also tell us about your Greenify Everything app.

- 42:19Speaker 3: This is the story of a very special woman. In
- 42:23Speaker 3: a matter of seconds, she turned herself into a great
- 42:27Speaker 3: mathematician or an entrepreneur. Her knowledge was limitless and still is.
- 42:34Speaker 3: She could also make monsters disappear, especially those that lurked
- 42:38Speaker 3: in the shadows under the bed. Once this woman put
- 42:42Speaker 3: back together a teenage girl's broken heart, which had been
- 42:46Speaker 3: shattered in a thousand pieces, just by giving her a
- 42:49Speaker 3: bear hug. She masqueraded as a regular person at work,
- 42:53Speaker 3: but as a superhero at home. Everyone knows her as Gabriella.
- 42:59Speaker 3: I still call her mom.

- 43:20Speaker 1: Back on Vox Novus, my guest this week is Annie Bond,
- 43:23Speaker 1: her book Awakening Prana, Nine Steps to Regenerative Self Transformation. Annie,
- 43:31Speaker 1: can you explain how Awakening Prana achieves positive results by
- 43:36Speaker 1: incorporating ancient wisdom and respected contemporary practices that have shown
- 43:42Speaker 1: to be effective, such as visualization.
- 43:45Speaker 2: Yeah, that's you know, it's a very very deep connection
- 43:53Speaker 2: to the planet and to the elements earth, firewater, air,
- 43:56Speaker 2: and ether have been a mainstay of man any spiritual
- 44:00Speaker 2: practices forever, and I think the modern world we will
- 44:05Speaker 2: often forget get it. We forget it, especially as we
- 44:08Speaker 2: get more and more digital. We're less and less you know,
- 44:13Speaker 2: being outdoors and in nature, and and so it's a
- 44:18Speaker 2: fundamental The connecting to nature and specifically the elements earth
- 44:22Speaker 2: and fire and water and air and ether is a
- 44:25Speaker 2: very very seminal part of the entire process. It's the
- 44:29Speaker 2: step one actually is is learning how to connect to
- 44:34Speaker 2: to the planet. And I think that the the modern
- 44:42Speaker 2: awareness of things like, for example, coming into heart coherence.
- 44:47Speaker 2: You know, we have a lot of to give a
- 44:50Speaker 2: lot of credit to the Heart Math Institute, for example,
- 44:53Speaker 2: and other a lot of healers that talk about coming
- 44:57Speaker 2: into heart coherence, which is drop into your heart chakra
- 45:01Speaker 2: and tuning into a feeling of gratitude for creation. And
- 45:06Speaker 2: there's a resonance that happens in your heart chakra when
- 45:08Speaker 2: you do that that kind of thing. And my understanding
- 45:12Speaker 2: would be that that isn't like that's new, but that
- 45:16Speaker 2: we are because certainly, especially back in the day, the
- 45:22Speaker 2: less would be less in one's head and more in
- 45:25Speaker 2: the in nature and more in one's heart to begin with.
- 45:28Speaker 2: But the but being conscious of having being in heart
- 45:34Speaker 2: coherence as part of a step for this is I
- 45:38Speaker 2: think a new a new way of looking at these
- 45:42Speaker 2: kinds of works. And and so that's that I think,
- 45:45Speaker 2: that's that's very important. And also, like I always say
- 45:50Speaker 2: before these meditations, is to something have asked the intention
- 45:54Speaker 2: for what it is you want the healing to be,
- 45:57Speaker 2: and that that becomes very important.
- 46:00Speaker 1: Tell us a little more about visualization practice, you know, I.
- 46:06Speaker 2: I'm very clearvoyance, so I always visualize as I'm doing
- 46:10Speaker 2: any of these things. So if I'm sending love and
- 46:13Speaker 2: gratitude to the heart of the earth, I sort of
- 46:15Speaker 2: see it. I see the energy go down. Or I
- 46:19Speaker 2: send love and gratitude to the heart of the sun
- 46:21Speaker 2: and I see it go down, and you know it's
- 46:25Speaker 2: I'm mindful of the fact that a lot of people
- 46:27Speaker 2: aren't as clearvoyant as I am, of course, and so
- 46:30Speaker 2: but they may be very clear cognizant. They may know things,
- 46:33Speaker 2: they may feel things, they may see things, I mean
- 46:38Speaker 2: hear things, and so the ability to feel the you know,
- 46:45Speaker 2: to see is something that really can be trained. And
- 46:49Speaker 2: I think visualizing guide meditations are really really helpful to
- 46:54Speaker 2: train clairvoyance, and I really recommend it because you can
- 47:00Speaker 2: learn a lot, Like you can ask your higher self
- 47:02Speaker 2: to give you a symbol of something, and that really
- 47:06Speaker 2: helps you manifest. But you need to be able to
- 47:08Speaker 2: see it right in your mind's eye, like you ask
- 47:11Speaker 2: your higher self, please send me a symbol around something
- 47:14Speaker 2: it is you want to manifest, And I once did
- 47:16Speaker 2: that for I wanted to sell my violin because I
- 47:20Speaker 2: had a slight tremor because of my injury, and I
- 47:23Speaker 2: had been a very good violinist, and I really couldn't
- 47:26Speaker 2: play well anymore, and so I asked that, and my
- 47:30Speaker 2: higher self gave me the image of a treble clef.
- 47:33Speaker 2: And anytime I thought about wanting to sell my violin,
- 47:36Speaker 2: I just get the treble clef in my mind. But
- 47:38Speaker 2: I got a clear image of a trouble cleft by
- 47:41Speaker 2: asking my higher self to send me something. And so
- 47:45Speaker 2: I just recommend people train their clairvoyance if they are
- 47:48Speaker 2: not naturally clairvoyant themselves.
- 47:52Speaker 1: Chronic pain and health issues can be debilitating. How does
- 47:56Speaker 1: Awakening Prama address these challenges and promote natural healing from within?
- 48:02Speaker 2: Well, it's the same process of once you have going
- 48:07Speaker 2: back to the car analogy, once you have the engine working,
- 48:11Speaker 2: then the entire system flows and highly healing energy flows
- 48:17Speaker 2: to the areas where there is the pain or that
- 48:20Speaker 2: it is disease. And so it's getting the system working
- 48:24Speaker 2: that is incredibly important, and then you know a lot
- 48:28Speaker 2: of different health issues just simply fall away wonderful.
- 48:32Speaker 1: Feeling lost, depressed, and unfulfilled is a common experience. What
- 48:38Speaker 1: steps does Awakening Prano offer to help people discover their
- 48:41Speaker 1: true purpose and their passions.
- 48:45Speaker 2: Well, one of the important pieces and is this actually
- 48:49Speaker 2: step two in the nine Steps to Awakening Prana is
- 48:52Speaker 2: to connect learning how to build a relationship with your
- 48:55Speaker 2: higher self, and that is the part of you that
- 48:58Speaker 2: will be able to guide you to help bring healing
- 49:03Speaker 2: around some inner conflict that may be causing the depression
- 49:07Speaker 2: and help guide you really bring synchronicities to by asking
- 49:14Speaker 2: synchronicities that may you might find the right doctor or
- 49:17Speaker 2: the chiropractor or something like that. And I think one
- 49:21Speaker 2: of the things I've learned a lot about in my
- 49:25Speaker 2: personal growth when it comes to my spiritual path, has
- 49:29Speaker 2: been making this relationship connecting to my higher self as
- 49:34Speaker 2: a relationship and then asking my higher self to bring
- 49:38Speaker 2: healing around different issues. And this is a sort of
- 49:42Speaker 2: opening to being guided by your soul and higher self
- 49:47Speaker 2: versus your personality. Is just a game changer, and the
- 49:50Speaker 2: book really helps you learn how to do that.
- 49:53Speaker 1: It's interesting when you talk about true purpose and passions.
- 49:58Speaker 1: Many years ago, when I was an indie, I used
- 50:00Speaker 1: to teach salespeople and one of the things that I
- 50:03Speaker 1: would teach them is to ask what does the customer
- 50:07Speaker 1: really want? And so the example. I would give a
- 50:10Speaker 1: very simple example. A customer comes in and wants to
- 50:13Speaker 1: buy a drill bit. What do they really want? And
- 50:16Speaker 1: people would say, well, they want a drill bit. I said, no,
- 50:18Speaker 1: but what do they really want? And the answer is
- 50:20Speaker 1: they want to make a whole? And then the question becomes,
- 50:23Speaker 1: in addition to the drill bit, what else can they
- 50:26Speaker 1: use to make that hole? What are the supplies do
- 50:28Speaker 1: they need? Do they need safety gear, do they need lubricants?
- 50:31Speaker 1: Whatever it might be. And I extended that to people
- 50:35Speaker 1: that I would use to meet in colleges. We used
- 50:37Speaker 1: to bring in interns from colleges and one of the
- 50:40Speaker 1: things that I would sit with an intern and ask
- 50:42Speaker 1: is what do you really want to do? What is
- 50:45Speaker 1: it that you aspire to do? And you'd be shocked
- 50:48Speaker 1: at how many people never said they never had anyone
- 50:51Speaker 1: approach them before. People would say you should go for this,
- 50:53Speaker 1: or you should go for that, or whatever the degree
- 50:56Speaker 1: might be, but no one ever sat down with them
- 50:58Speaker 1: and listened to them, what do you really want to do?
- 51:01Speaker 1: And I think that's about connecting with the higher self,
- 51:04Speaker 1: isn't it?
- 51:05Speaker 2: It totally is And then right, and the more you
- 51:09Speaker 2: start feeling you're in on that path, you put one
- 51:12Speaker 2: foot forward and you know you're become your own lighthouse
- 51:15Speaker 2: as it were, is shining the light of what the
- 51:18Speaker 2: next step and the next step, and it's you know,
- 51:21Speaker 2: you do get some red crumbs. It's not necessarily the straightforward,
- 51:24Speaker 2: but it's I don't don't know how to live life
- 51:27Speaker 2: without this. And most people sort of have gotten sort
- 51:30Speaker 2: of insight about things for them or what feels good
- 51:35Speaker 2: or what, but their personality may just override it all
- 51:38Speaker 2: the time. So paying attention to what is really true
- 51:42Speaker 2: and authentic so you personally doesn't override it very very
- 51:46Speaker 2: helpful for making more authentically correct choices for yourself.
- 51:51Speaker 1: In today's world, stress can take a toll. We see
- 51:55Speaker 1: it every day. How does awakening krana help people connect
- 51:59Speaker 1: with a deep sense of peace and well being beyond
- 52:03Speaker 1: the physical body.
- 52:05Speaker 2: Once you're in the flow of your energy body, you
- 52:11Speaker 2: are inflow and you have a feeling of purpose, and
- 52:15Speaker 2: you have a feeling of being able to mitigate causes
- 52:21Speaker 2: of stress, and you have an ability to come into
- 52:29Speaker 2: alignment with where you are. I think coming back into
- 52:33Speaker 2: this story about coming into heart coherence is really important.
- 52:37Speaker 2: Stress everybody knows what it's like to be in one's
- 52:40Speaker 2: head and hamster wheeling and the mind just running and running.
- 52:44Speaker 2: That's a great indicator you're ungrounded, getting grounded, dropping into
- 52:47Speaker 2: your heart chakra. I mean, one way to ground is
- 52:51Speaker 2: by asking Mother Earth to help you anchor you down,
- 52:56Speaker 2: find ways that work for you to get grounded, because
- 52:59Speaker 2: that's one of the best ways to get out of stresses,
- 53:01Speaker 2: to get grounded. And besides just being grounded, to be
- 53:05Speaker 2: in hert coherence and then you know you're not in
- 53:09Speaker 2: your head so much as it's take some time to
- 53:13Speaker 2: experience this, but once you learn about what it's like
- 53:16Speaker 2: to not be in your head, it's you just never
- 53:19Speaker 2: look back.
- 53:21Speaker 1: What would you like readers to take away from Awakening Prana.
- 53:26Speaker 2: I think just there's so much hope to for regeneration,
- 53:32Speaker 2: for rejuvenation, for renew oneself, to leave suffering behind and
- 53:38Speaker 2: have a fulfilled life with a lot of vibrancy. And
- 53:43Speaker 2: that's really, I mean, it's astonishing what can happen for
- 53:47Speaker 2: your person.
- 53:48Speaker 1: Absolutely, my guest Annie Bond her book Awakening Prana Nine
- 53:53Speaker 1: Steps to Regenerative Self Transformation. Annie, one more time, please

- 54:41Speaker 1: And one more time, talk about the Awakening Prana Retreat
- 54:44Speaker 1: that's coming up in Sedona this February.
- 54:47Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's going to be a five full days
- 54:50Speaker 2: at a wonderful venue that I'll be teaching in a
- 54:54Speaker 2: very experiential way how to connect to who we really
- 54:58Speaker 2: are and to get your energy by and full flow
- 55:01Speaker 2: so that you come into the full radiance of who
- 55:04Speaker 2: you really are. And it's always a very profound community
- 55:10Speaker 2: get together. We'll have fire pits, their labyrinths. We're going
- 55:13Speaker 2: to go to val Texas and just have a really
- 55:19Speaker 2: miraculous time of letting old suffering go, an old density leaves,
- 55:27Speaker 2: so that we can really really come into harmony and
- 55:32Speaker 2: resonance in alignment with ourselves, which really then ultimately brings
- 55:35Speaker 2: us into transformation.
- 55:37Speaker 1: And as I shared with Annie offline before we resume
- 55:41Speaker 1: the interview, Sedona is one of my favorite places in
- 55:44Speaker 1: the world. Every time I've been there, I've had magical experiences.
