- 0:42SPEAKER_02: Hi Diane.
- 0:44SPEAKER_02: Hi everybody.
- 0:45SPEAKER_02: How is everyone today?
- 0:48SPEAKER_02: I just realized that this is the final time that Diane, Diane and I will be recording a podcast from the same country.
- 1:03SPEAKER_02: That's it.
- 1:03SPEAKER_02: Diane is moving back to the homeland, back to Ireland.
- 1:07SPEAKER_02: So although we have been recording every spiritual air episode based in a different city, one in Melbourne, one in Sydney, this is going to be now going global for us.
- 1:18SPEAKER_02: So Diana, this is a big move for you.
- 1:21SPEAKER_02: This is pretty huge.
- 1:22SPEAKER_02: And uh yeah, I'm gonna miss picking up the phone during uh the Aussie hours to give you lots of phone calls every day with my stories.
- 1:29SPEAKER_00: I think that's gonna be the hardest thing for both of us.
- 1:32SPEAKER_00: Like, what time is it in Australia?
- 1:33SPEAKER_00: What time is it in Ireland?
- 1:35SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I don't care.
- 1:35SPEAKER_02: I'll still be WhatsApp in you.
- 1:37SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
- 1:37SPEAKER_00: Well that's the message will be there when I wake up and slide your morning wake-up call from Liz.
- 1:43SPEAKER_02: That is right.
- 1:44SPEAKER_02: And just to acknowledge all of the listeners from the 90 plus countries around the world that tune in month after month for us.
- 1:53SPEAKER_02: Thank you for being with us.
- 1:54SPEAKER_02: It would not have been the journey that it has been today without you as well.
- 1:59SPEAKER_02: So isn't it nice just to think we've got friends in all of these countries, Diane?
- 2:04SPEAKER_02: Absolutely.
- 2:05SPEAKER_01: It just shows if we ever do retreats or live shows anywhere, we'll have uh an audience, a captive audience in that location.
- 2:12SPEAKER_02: Oh, absolutely.
- 2:13SPEAKER_02: So on that note, if you haven't already clicked subscribe, please do, especially if you are over the England, Ireland, Europe side of things, America as well, because Diane's coming your way and who knows what that could open up.
- 2:27SPEAKER_00: Oh, bring it on.
- 2:29SPEAKER_00: Bring it on.
- 2:30SPEAKER_02: Come along for the ride.
- 2:31SPEAKER_02: Okay, now so what's this episode about?
- 2:35SPEAKER_02: Let's go to energy hygiene today.
- 2:39SPEAKER_02: Now, we have spoken on and off about all things underneath the umbrella of energy hygiene lots of times.
- 2:48SPEAKER_02: However, it's just something that is so important to constantly get reminders on.
- 2:54SPEAKER_02: So, this is where we're going today.
- 2:56SPEAKER_02: We're looking at those daily energetic maintenance techniques, let's call it that.
- 3:02SPEAKER_02: And that's the grounding, the protection, the clearing of our own personal energy, which is so bloody important.
- 3:13SPEAKER_02: There are so many things that I know you do, Diane, that's different to me when we're talking about energy hygiene.
- 3:19SPEAKER_02: But just to put it on a basic level, it's a simple, you know, we clean our teeth every morning, right?
- 3:25SPEAKER_02: It's hygiene, it's something that we know is really important.
- 3:29SPEAKER_02: Yeah, a lot of us miss these really incredible basic techniques that should be done daily to actually keep, you know, our spiritual hygiene in place.
- 3:40SPEAKER_02: Diane, I know that you've got a lot to say on this type of topic.
- 3:45SPEAKER_02: What would you say is so important to you about doing these type of practices?
- 3:51SPEAKER_01: Oh, I think for me, it's actually the mindset about it.
- 3:54SPEAKER_01: Like it's it's so much about us taking personal responsibility for our energetics, for our field, for how we show up.
- 4:03SPEAKER_01: And the more like for anyone who's been through a spiritual awakening, anybody who's on a spiritual path, we start to open and open ourselves up more and more to the unseen.
- 4:14SPEAKER_01: And we, you know, you often use the term about trawling stuff through as well, like as we go through our day.
- 4:20SPEAKER_01: And if we're not kind of looking after ourselves, having that sense of sovereignty, and I view it kind of differently, like, you know, not just in terms of you know, protection and clearing and grounding, I view it that we take responsibility, have sovereignty over ourselves, over our energetic field.
- 4:36SPEAKER_01: And if we're maintaining that, then we're not actually allowing in any of the more negative or low vibration things.
- 4:43SPEAKER_01: They're not gonna hit us or drag us down as as much as we might think.
- 4:48SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and and even just spending a second to reflect on what our day is like, you know, from the moment you're picking up the phone, you've got technology coming into the field, you've got the kids coming in, the husband, the partner, the family all cramming in there, and then you go into work and you're getting all different types of energetic uh mix matches, some aligned, some unaligned coming in.
- 5:12SPEAKER_02: Um, I feel like if we could actually see it, you know, like dirt.
- 5:17SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 5:18SPEAKER_02: You know, if you could actually visualize that amount of dirt kind of coming onto your body every day, like you'd be bloody hell, you'd be running to jump in that shower every night, wouldn't you?
- 5:28SPEAKER_01: Absolutely.
- 5:28SPEAKER_01: And then we also think of people who experience things like psychic attacks or they feel that they're, you know, that there is a lot of negativity or um, you know, that denser energy coming from other places.
- 5:40SPEAKER_01: Like that's a very real thing for some people.
- 5:44SPEAKER_01: So again, instead of kind of responding to that, if we're holding our presence, having our spiritual practices, having our energetic hygiene in place for ourselves, then we're focused on what we can control, which is ourselves, as opposed to being worried about all of the outside influences.
- 6:03SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 6:03SPEAKER_02: Oh, I I can't wait to delve into this because I know even looking back on my journey, my practices have evolved so much, but I've always I've not always done the practice, let's be honest.
- 6:14SPEAKER_02: In the in the beginning, I was kind of like, this is probably a load of shit to me, you know, these invisible practices are protecting me.
- 6:20SPEAKER_02: I'm like, yeah, whatever, whatever.
- 6:22SPEAKER_02: And you know, I had to go and make all the mistakes to realize that it does affect me because I'm so sensitive and open to energy.
- 6:31SPEAKER_02: But how my practices have evolved and how important I now judge them in my priorities on the daily verses, that's probably the biggest change.
- 6:41SPEAKER_02: You know, I would have used to do it if I remembered.
- 6:43SPEAKER_02: Now it's like, no, I actually have to do this.
- 6:46SPEAKER_02: And I've realized that the more heightened my intuition gets, the more sensitive, the even more thorough these type of practices are.
- 6:55SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 6:55SPEAKER_02: I mean, just to just to chat about our trip to Bali, Diane.
- 7:00SPEAKER_02: Oh, I mean, Jesus Christ.
- 7:07SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 7:08SPEAKER_01: Because it was a different, you're going to a different environment.
- 7:11SPEAKER_01: You're like the energetics in Ubud are through the roof anyway.
- 7:16SPEAKER_01: And then we were meeting these incredible people for the first time.
- 7:19SPEAKER_01: So we had like there was just so much going on.
- 7:23SPEAKER_01: There was like that energetic soup almost that we were you know diving into the middle of it.
- 7:28SPEAKER_01: And I know for me, it's it's almost like having that toolkit of things that I could delve into.
- 7:36SPEAKER_01: What do I need today?
- 7:38SPEAKER_01: What do I need in this moment?
- 7:39SPEAKER_01: Because I felt in Bali a lot of my normal practices did not work, they weren't 100%.
- 7:45SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 7:46SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 7:46SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 7:47SPEAKER_01: It just and it shows that the more important that we have a range of tools in our kit bag to be able to say, Am I going to use this?
- 7:55SPEAKER_01: Oh, this is not working.
- 7:56SPEAKER_01: Can I shift to something else?
- 7:58SPEAKER_01: Or even having a community that you can reach out to and say, hey guys, I'm struggling with grounding.
- 8:03SPEAKER_01: Who's got some tips for me?
- 8:04SPEAKER_01: Like that's the intention behind us, Steel, sharing this information on the podcast as well.
- 8:09SPEAKER_01: It's like, so you can fill your toolkit with all of the different tools and practices.
- 8:14SPEAKER_01: And, you know, we love as well when people come onto Instagram or into our renegades community and start telling us their practices as well.
- 8:22SPEAKER_01: Because the minute something resonates with you, you think, oh, I'm going to give that a go.
- 8:26SPEAKER_01: Let's see how that works for me.
- 8:28SPEAKER_01: Because definitely I found grounding in Bali to be quite difficult to do.
- 8:34SPEAKER_01: Like it was, it was something that I had to be very, very mindful about grounding every single day.
- 8:41SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
- 8:42SPEAKER_02: I mean, I'd love to share a story on this because I think I'm pretty good at all these techniques.
- 8:47SPEAKER_02: But and Diana, I know I've shared this with you.
- 8:49SPEAKER_02: This is probably the first time I've actually said it to anyone else.
- 8:52SPEAKER_02: Um, but we went through the five-day retreat, and and and during the retreat, I was feeling myself um really lose energy.
- 9:01SPEAKER_02: And by the fifth day, I was very, very tired.
- 9:05SPEAKER_02: And when I say tired, I was actually being shown clairvoyantly an empty battery.
- 9:11SPEAKER_02: You know, it was completely drained.
- 9:13SPEAKER_02: And after that, I then went on holiday with my family and obviously had the kids there, my husband.
- 9:20SPEAKER_02: And honestly, it was so hard for me to even put a sentence together.
- 9:24SPEAKER_02: I was just zonked.
- 9:27SPEAKER_02: Energetically, spiritually, everything had gone and I could not work it out.
- 9:31SPEAKER_02: I was, it really affected my mood.
- 9:33SPEAKER_02: I was extremely flat.
- 9:35SPEAKER_02: I wasn't able to hold conversation.
- 9:37SPEAKER_02: And it was, it got so bad for me that even thinking about decisions or the future, it was just physically impossible.
- 9:44SPEAKER_02: I was scattered.
- 9:45SPEAKER_02: It was like a foggy cloud sat in my head.
- 9:49SPEAKER_02: And I felt that before to a certain extent, but not to this, to this much.
- 9:54SPEAKER_02: And bearing in mind, I've never ever held a five-day spiritual retreat before.
- 9:58SPEAKER_02: What a lesson.
- 10:00SPEAKER_02: And it came to a head for me on the flight on the way back to Melbourne.
- 10:05SPEAKER_02: I was just feeling bad, you know, so bad.
- 10:08SPEAKER_02: And I sat and I put my hands or my head in my hands, just to kind of go, what is going on?
- 10:13SPEAKER_02: I was holding my crystals, and I'm like, how do I feel better here?
- 10:18SPEAKER_02: And as I started to reflect, I suddenly could visualize and feel this huge energetic clump, let's call it a clump, above my head in my auric field.
- 10:32SPEAKER_02: And I literally could see everybody's energy holding in this spot above my head, and it was heavy and dense.
- 10:39SPEAKER_02: And I was like, wow, okay.
- 10:42SPEAKER_02: I've actually carried everyone with me, and I've still got everyone with me above.
- 10:47SPEAKER_02: And I started to cry, and I cried and I cried for five hours back to Melbourne, and I could feel the cleansing happening through the tears of letting it go.
- 11:00SPEAKER_02: So it was interesting for me.
- 11:01SPEAKER_02: I was like, wow, what didn't I do correctly for that to happen?
- 11:06SPEAKER_02: Why was I holding people's energy that way?
- 11:09SPEAKER_02: How could the aggranding, the clearing, the protection have been better?
- 11:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and it's it's fascinating that too, because I remember us like you know, when everybody had left the retreat and us very intentionally closing the circling circle, closing alchemy, the retreat, and standing in this space.
- 11:29SPEAKER_01: And for me in that moment was very different.
- 11:33SPEAKER_01: Like I instantly felt that I was claiming back my energy.
- 11:39SPEAKER_01: So literally in that moment, there was like me visualizing a bluey-white light that I'm kind of whooshing through my my auric field and you know, pushing that out.
- 11:51SPEAKER_01: So it's almost like blasting anything that doesn't belong to me and sending back to everyone with you know loving kindness that anybody who had participated in the retreat.
- 12:00SPEAKER_01: But I think new experiences always demand new tools, other new ways of looking at things, and you know, you've facilitated so many experiences to Cambodia over the years, like you've done this kind of work, but it wasn't it wasn't spiritual in its focus and its nature.
- 12:18SPEAKER_01: So this was the something new for you, and also co-facilitating together as well.
- 12:24SPEAKER_01: Like for us, it was a case of we still there's a degree of what I was conscious of going through that whole week as well was my own energetics.
- 12:34SPEAKER_01: So almost like the boundary between here's the spiritual as fuck um energy, energetics, you know, Liz and I combined, and then here's Diane's energy, and here's Liz's energy, and then there's everyone else that we're facilitating the process of transformation for.
- 12:50SPEAKER_01: Um, but I I think I was very, very conscious.
- 12:54SPEAKER_01: Again, it's that sovereignty for me that is so, so, so important that it's like, what's my energy?
- 12:59SPEAKER_01: What am I feeling versus what someone else is feeling?
- 13:02SPEAKER_01: Because even for both of us, you know, we had different times or one of us would be, you know, hyped up, excited, and the other one might be a little bit worried about something.
- 13:09SPEAKER_01: Or, you know, that we just you know the the basic human emotions, and for us not to get too entangled in each other's um energetic fields either.
- 13:19SPEAKER_01: There was a part of that that what I thought when we left the space, there definitely was like I felt like almost a little bit heartbroken.
- 13:27SPEAKER_01: Well, I say a little bit, but sometimes heartbroken.
- 13:30SPEAKER_01: It was like, oh my god, there's part of me that was missing the overlap in our fields as well.
- 13:37SPEAKER_01: Um, you know, and and having to kind of unravel and disconnect that in a way.
- 13:44SPEAKER_01: I definitely didn't feel that I brought the energetics of any of um our wonderful, you know, uh alchemists who are on the retreat with us because I think as a coach, I'm so even before any of the energetic work, before you know, spiritual awakening, I was always very intentional about this is the end of a session and I will disconnect.
- 14:06SPEAKER_01: That used to be that I didn't want to bring people's, you know, emotional stories or trauma forward with me.
- 14:14SPEAKER_01: But it it's it's fascinating that as our life progresses, as new experiences come up, and definitely like a five-day spiritual retreat was a new, very new thing for both of us, and but no different than anything else.
- 14:28SPEAKER_01: If you're a person who speaks on stage, if you're a facilitator, if you're a communicator, if you're a coach, if you're a person who hosts retreats, if you do anything where you are holding space for people for whether it's, you know, a four-hour event, like a half day event, a full-day event, or over multiple days, you will feel it.
- 14:46SPEAKER_01: You will absolutely feel it by the end of it because you're holding space for people, you're holding that energetic frequency of the uh container that is alchemy in our case.
- 14:55SPEAKER_01: But it's so, so important then that after that give ourselves the recharge time.
- 15:00SPEAKER_01: And like I know that's what I teach my clients to do.
- 15:03SPEAKER_01: It's like, okay, if you know something big is coming up, recharge you know, charge up beforehand, recharge afterwards, have that time.
- 15:10SPEAKER_01: It's so important.
- 15:11SPEAKER_01: That's another thing that we need to do if you know that you're going out there.
- 15:14SPEAKER_01: Like it could be, it could be a board meeting that you're preparing for, it can be anything, but just okay, if you're going to be giving a lot of yourself to something, you know, fuel yourself beforehand and then refuel yourself afterwards.
- 15:27SPEAKER_01: But it does, it took a big hit, I think, on both of us.
- 15:31SPEAKER_02: The good learnings, like for me, it wasn't that the practice wasn't there, but looking back now, I would have been bringing in extra tools on the ground in clearing and protection and actually doing it more often through the day.
- 15:44SPEAKER_02: Um I think you know, I'm always getting, you know, extremely tired and stuff and feel the energy after a Cambodia trip.
- 15:52SPEAKER_02: But this was completely different.
- 15:53SPEAKER_02: And whether or not that's because it was, you know, a year and a half, two years since I've done Cambodia and I've come further in the development and my energy is even more sensitive.
- 16:03SPEAKER_02: What I'm trying to say here is anybody on this spiritual path, expect change.
- 16:08SPEAKER_02: Like don't think that you can still pull off the old habit of standing on the grass, you know, because that's the one that we always talk about.
- 16:15SPEAKER_02: It's the simple one.
- 16:16SPEAKER_02: It might just need mean that you either, yes, stand on the grass and ground and feel the earth, but you might need to do that four times a day.
- 16:24SPEAKER_02: Or you bring in, you know, something else like you're doing a smoke ceremony and you're burning that sage around you as well.
- 16:32SPEAKER_02: It's about just having the tools, and more so, who gives a shit about the tools unless you have awareness?
- 16:41SPEAKER_02: You have to be aware of what's happening in your body and you've got to act and do something about it.
- 16:47SPEAKER_01: That was the biggest learning for me.
- 16:49SPEAKER_01: So so many people have said to me, Oh, what did you do in Bali?
- 16:52SPEAKER_01: Like, as in because I had days before the retreat and days afterwards.
- 16:56SPEAKER_01: And people are shocked when I tell them that I did nothing.
- 17:00SPEAKER_01: Like I didn't go, like, granted, I was a little bit ill for the few days beforehand, so I'd Bali Belly before I got to Bali.
- 17:08SPEAKER_01: Thank you.
- 17:09SPEAKER_01: I literally knew that energetically I could not be out and about in the streets and doing the haggle and going into shops and um, you know, going to a lot of these experiences.
- 17:21SPEAKER_01: So I knew we had a full kind of full itinerary as part of the um the retreat.
- 17:27SPEAKER_01: And I was conserving my energy for myself and for the people that you know that we were hosting for the retreat.
- 17:32SPEAKER_01: Then afterwards, it was a case of what does my body need right now?
- 17:36SPEAKER_01: And especially when we talk about grounding, it is about your body.
- 17:39SPEAKER_01: Your body is the vehicle that takes you through this life.
- 17:41SPEAKER_01: And if you're not grounded into your body, you're going to be off with the fairy.
- 17:45SPEAKER_01: So for me, that conscious decision then, and my my brain, like my intellect, was giving me a hard time saying, Oh, you should be out doing this, make the most of your last, you know, your last time here.
- 17:56SPEAKER_01: But I was honouring what I needed, and that was part of my spiritual hygiene, my energetic hygiene, that it was like, what do I need right now to remain grounded, to remain, you know, sovereign and you know, in control over my own energetics?
- 18:12SPEAKER_01: Because guaranteed, if I had gone out running around for those days before and days after, I would have depleted myself and I definitely would have been at that kind of battery low level.
- 18:22SPEAKER_01: And I'm so glad that I honored.
- 18:24SPEAKER_01: And it was hard because it was it was like a battle between my intellect telling me all the things that I should do.
- 18:31SPEAKER_01: Um, oh, when are you ever going to be back in Bali again?
- 18:34SPEAKER_01: You know, you should do this.
- 18:35SPEAKER_03: Don't let the guilt stayless.
- 18:37SPEAKER_01: And that was it.
- 18:38SPEAKER_01: That was it.
- 18:39SPEAKER_01: But again, I completely knew I needed to be responsible for my own energetics and not deplete myself.
- 18:48SPEAKER_02: Let's talk about this and break it down a little bit.
- 18:51SPEAKER_02: Um, let's talk about how you know you need grounding.
- 18:56SPEAKER_02: So that ungrounded feeling for me, it is that scattered in my head energy where I'm like rolling around millions of thoughts, a little bit like uh fluffy, I'm gonna call it.
- 19:10SPEAKER_02: Is my word is like I can't really think a whole conversation's very well.
- 19:14SPEAKER_02: Um, what would it how would you describe feeling ungrounded?
- 19:18SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I find also too that like for me, I get sometimes like a nauseous feeling, like almost like I'm starting to go out of my body and that I'm disconnecting from my body.
- 19:29SPEAKER_01: Like I use the term, it's a very Irish one, you know, away with the fairies, but it is literally I can't think straight.
- 19:35SPEAKER_01: I'm I I literally just feel I'm almost above myself or outside of myself, that I'm not connected.
- 19:42SPEAKER_01: Like so the word grounding to me is is such a beautiful one because that's if you want to feel like you're in your body and you're in control of your faculties.
- 19:50SPEAKER_01: And I definitely don't feel that way when I'm when I'm away with the fairy, so to speak.
- 19:56SPEAKER_02: And a good way to kind of know if you or your family is ungrounded is the times where you're running late and you're scatty and you forget your car keys or you lose something and you have no idea what you've even just done to retrace your steps, right?
- 20:09SPEAKER_02: That is like being so ungrounded.
- 20:11SPEAKER_02: So just having the awareness and again preempt this, go and ground in the morning.
- 20:18SPEAKER_02: I find that the morning is like the most important time to just kick start this type of an exercise.
- 20:24SPEAKER_02: And whether it will be just the feet on the ground or walking barefoot on the sand on the grass, anything again, anything that is going to connect you to the ground, go and hold a tree.
- 20:36SPEAKER_02: What else do you do, Diane?
- 20:37SPEAKER_01: Well, it's actually because that was one of the things that we brought to everybody in the alchemy retreat as well.
- 20:43SPEAKER_01: And I do this a lot.
- 20:45SPEAKER_01: Like for me, um, grass, hugely important, like bare feet scrunching my toes in the grass.
- 20:50SPEAKER_01: Rock is another one, like touching it.
- 20:52SPEAKER_01: That's why I go to a lot of the stone circles and that.
- 20:54SPEAKER_01: But I my hands on rock or my forehead against rock, I find really, really grounding.
- 21:00SPEAKER_01: Um, but the circulating energy with a tree, that for me, and not just from a grounding, I also find it very cleansing as well.
- 21:08SPEAKER_01: Like I'll use that as a way of clearing my energy too.
- 21:12SPEAKER_01: And, you know, like literally for people imagining that you're circulating energy from the tree.
- 21:18SPEAKER_01: So it's coming from the tree through the crown of your head, down through your body, through, you know, out through your feet, and then up through the roots of the tree, and it's circulating and circulating and circulating.
- 21:30SPEAKER_01: And for me, like I know I have a massive connection to trees anyway, but that for me is one of the most beautiful things to be able to do.
- 21:39SPEAKER_01: And even if you can't, like if there's a tree that's in the distance and you can't quite get, you know, get to it, they still have such a huge energetic feel that you can just be standing without actually touching them and visualizing that energetic exchange.
- 21:53SPEAKER_01: But for me, that is a beautiful, beautiful way.
- 21:56SPEAKER_01: So if the you know, feet on the grass or you know, feet on the the sand.
- 22:00SPEAKER_01: Hand in dirt and soil is not working for you, find a tree and the or sit with your back to it and imagine the same cycle of energy and nature reset.
- 22:10SPEAKER_02: Totally.
- 22:11SPEAKER_01: Anything nature, anything nature is your friend when it comes to grinding.
- 22:17SPEAKER_01: The other thing that I've done relatively recently, so I had a grounding mat that I used to use just for my feet and I put it under my feet.
- 22:25SPEAKER_01: But I went and bought some of those grinding sheets.
- 22:28SPEAKER_01: Um using them for a while.
- 22:31SPEAKER_01: And it is okay, if I can grind while I'm sleeping.
- 22:35SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, definitely.
- 22:37SPEAKER_01: Um, so I've I found that very helpful, but it's still, you know, like I get the science behind it, but I think there is nothing that like I think psychologically your nervous system resets as well when you're in nature.
- 22:50SPEAKER_01: So when you're doing something that's in a more nature-driven, driven, grounded way, rather than oh, listening to binaural beats.
- 22:58SPEAKER_01: Like you can listen to certain frequencies while you're going to sleep, or you can have your grounding sheets for you.
- 23:02SPEAKER_01: Haamatite is another, like I that's what I use when I'm flying.
- 23:07SPEAKER_01: Like when I'm and my daughter does as well.
- 23:09SPEAKER_01: It's like we've both got hematite bracelets that okay, if we're flying and we feel that sense of disconnecting or nervous and you know, anxious energy, hematite for me is the go-to stone to be able to just okay, this is what I'm going to use to to to grind me.
- 23:25SPEAKER_01: But they're yeah, they're probably the main things that I use.
- 23:28SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
- 23:29SPEAKER_02: Any dark crystals, you can't beat them.
- 23:31SPEAKER_02: I tell you something, if you're listening to this and it's your lunch break and you're heading back to the office, like you don't need to do all these real kind of crazy spiritual shit stuff either.
- 23:40SPEAKER_02: Like, I know for me, grounding is just about something that brings me into my feet, into the present moment.
- 23:46SPEAKER_02: So, like, if you've got anything heavy around you, I don't know, a can of beans, whatever, a heavy book, like just actually hold something heavy in your hands and just pause for that second and ground through that way.
- 24:00SPEAKER_02: So anything that like pulls you down towards the floor, it it's that simple.
- 24:05SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 24:06SPEAKER_02: And then it's it's I'd love to see your photographs if you do that, by the way.
- 24:10SPEAKER_03: Please share them.
- 24:12SPEAKER_03: Can of beans in each other.
- 24:14SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 24:15SPEAKER_03: Do some dates while you're at it.
- 24:17SPEAKER_01: It's funny because kids, like when I um would go in and do like mental health talks in schools with kids with kids.
- 24:24SPEAKER_01: And one of the things that would always come up for kids about when they were feeling anxious was in you having to do any sort of public speaking or debates or things like that.
- 24:31SPEAKER_01: And again, that nervous, anxious energy and kind of leave disconnecting from your body, I would always say to them, you know, nobody will know you're doing this.
- 24:39SPEAKER_01: I've always choking with them and saying, nobody knows you're doing this, but scrunch your toes in your shoes.
- 24:44SPEAKER_01: And again, it is because that automatically takes you out of your head, down into your feet, and connects you with the ground.
- 24:50SPEAKER_01: Granted, they're all wearing rubber sole shoes, so it's not, but it is that it's still that thought of anything you can do to bring awareness to your body, move your body in some way.
- 25:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah, breathe.
- 25:03SPEAKER_02: Yeah, any any type of quick two-minute breath work, even really important.
- 25:07SPEAKER_01: Yeah, anything that brings you back to physicality will grind you.
- 25:11SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 25:12SPEAKER_02: Let's let's move on to the whole idea of clearing and what this is.
- 25:16SPEAKER_02: Because I feel like this is something for me that I've learned the most about, especially because this was the one that I took the least seriously on my spiritual journey.
- 25:27SPEAKER_02: When I look back, I feel like, which is interesting because I'm so sensitive.
- 25:32SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I don't know.
- 25:33SPEAKER_02: I'd always be like, oh, I don't feel like I want to waft a piece of sage around my auric field.
- 25:42SPEAKER_02: It felt too woo-woo.
- 25:44SPEAKER_02: It was a little too woo-woo.
- 25:45SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 25:45SPEAKER_02: However, there's been some really simple things for me that allows me to do super quick clearing.
- 25:53SPEAKER_02: And coming back to the funny uh point that I made about when someone is really scattered and they lose something in the house, this actually just happened last night.
- 26:03SPEAKER_02: My husband will kill me for saying this out loud, but he probably won't hear it, so it's fine.
- 26:11SPEAKER_02: For some reason, he came in, he had a meeting ready, and he could not find his phone.
- 26:15SPEAKER_02: And when I say could not find his phone, no joke, the whole family looked for like half an hour for his bloody phone, and his energy was like, high up, he's stressed.
- 26:25SPEAKER_02: And when he's stressed, it goes straight into my body.
- 26:28SPEAKER_02: You know, I was feeling it from like the lungs upwards, it was like stuck in me.
- 26:33SPEAKER_02: Now he eventually found that phone and he got on nicely with his four o'clock meeting.
- 26:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah, then it was me upstairs with the kids, and I was filled with that energy, you know, it was stuck there.
- 26:45SPEAKER_02: So the number one tip for me, okay, quick 20 star jumps, and I'm like doing hardcore, fast, energetic star jumps, and the kids are like, What the hell is and I'm like, I can't get rid of the energy.
- 26:58SPEAKER_02: Um so the one thing that is my go-to at the moment is I do this quick like swipe and flick, let's call it, where I actually just use my hands almost like there is actual dirt on me, and I swipe my arms, I swipe my head, and I flick it all off.
- 27:15SPEAKER_02: And I just almost visualize as I'm doing it in that 10 seconds of getting rid of any of this stuck visual dirt that I've you know carried from Jesse.
- 27:24SPEAKER_02: And you know, that was super helpful in doing it.
- 27:27SPEAKER_02: And again, something you can just do anywhere at any time.
- 27:30SPEAKER_01: That is honestly, that is such a huge one for me.
- 27:33SPEAKER_01: And if you're in a place, so obviously you can't do this if you're in a say a toilet cubicle at work, but if you you can do it anywhere.
- 27:42SPEAKER_01: Wait, wait, no, but what I was going to build on was I do like shh shh the noise as the noise, and that's like that's kind of regulates your your vagus nerve, your your whole your whole internal energetics as well, because you're expressing it vocally, but if you are like wiping everything off, it's like and even just imagine it, you're clearing your energetic field, like you're kind of dusting everything off that you're and then saying that if you're in a place that you can do that, I just find it, yeah, it completely clears the system.
- 28:14SPEAKER_01: And you're you know, you're doing your star jumps.
- 28:18SPEAKER_01: Me for shape meditations was something that I learned in the Hoffman process when I did it years ago, and it stuck with me.
- 28:24SPEAKER_01: So either dancing like a maniac around the, you know, around the kitchen or doing a shape meditation, but it is moving your body, particularly if you've got that um, if there's like angst or anger or any of those kind of bigger, bolder emotions, you want to really shift them out of the body, it takes physical movement to clear those.
- 28:46SPEAKER_01: It's not like I find it's not just as simple as going in and having a shower, say using water to cleanse.
- 28:52SPEAKER_01: They need something a bit more, yeah, a bit more vigorous or a bit more intentional.
- 28:58SPEAKER_02: Absolutely.
- 28:58SPEAKER_02: You know, when when you've been around someone with heavy energy, whether it's you know a friend that's going through something, issue at work, you have to release what's not yours.
- 29:08SPEAKER_02: So this actually, any clearing process goes hand in hand with intention.
- 29:13SPEAKER_02: You know, if I'm swiping the stuff off my body or jumping or dancing, it's got to be like I'm clearing everyone's stuff.
- 29:19SPEAKER_02: You know, you have to actually set that as an intention to do it.
- 29:23SPEAKER_02: Um I know that there's water is something that a lot of people use.
- 29:28SPEAKER_02: And you mentioned the whole shower at the end of the day to clear things off or salt baths.
- 29:34SPEAKER_02: I know quite a lot.
- 29:36SPEAKER_02: Um, it's not something necessarily that I do often, but I can imagine that would be nice.
- 29:42SPEAKER_01: Oh, for for me, it's like the the shower.
- 29:44SPEAKER_01: I don't have a shower unless I'm like I'm like anytime out of the shower, my brain is on background now.
- 29:50SPEAKER_01: I'm I will I will literally cleanse my field.
- 29:55SPEAKER_01: Like I have a whole ritual I go through that I'd uh you know, words that I say to myself as I'm cleansing in in the shower.
- 30:02SPEAKER_01: Baths I love.
- 30:03SPEAKER_01: I don't view, I never view baths as cleansing though, for some reason.
- 30:08SPEAKER_01: They're more um helping me reconnect with an intention.
- 30:13SPEAKER_01: I'll use them more for manifestation.
- 30:14SPEAKER_02: Mindfulness and yeah, exactly.
- 30:17SPEAKER_01: I view them in different ways.
- 30:19SPEAKER_01: Um, but then like you know, a dip in the ocean.
- 30:22SPEAKER_01: Like, I mean, if you're someone who's into swimming, just go get into the sea to you know clear your energetic field as well.
- 30:28SPEAKER_01: But speaking of water, one of the biggest ways to cleanse is crying.
- 30:32SPEAKER_01: And you mentioned this about being on a plane.
- 30:35SPEAKER_01: Like, literally, we hold on to so much stuff, all of us do.
- 30:40SPEAKER_01: And you know, we might feel tears welling up, and it could be as simple as something that you know, someone has told you a heartfelt story, you've seen something on the news, you watched a movie, but you're carrying that.
- 30:51SPEAKER_01: If you feel moved to tears, you're feeling that internally, allow it to process through you.
- 30:57SPEAKER_01: And particularly, you know, like a lot of the work I do with self-directed healing, or people who hold on to emotions, like we're holding on to these massive emotions, they don't serve us, they're kind of clogging up our energetics.
- 31:09SPEAKER_01: So letting it out.
- 31:11SPEAKER_01: So if the tears are coming, don't stop them, go with it as much as you possibly can.
- 31:16SPEAKER_01: Same with our kids.
- 31:17SPEAKER_01: It's like, you know, don't stop our kids from crying.
- 31:20SPEAKER_01: If they want to have their tears, you know, hold on to them or give them what they need until it passes.
- 31:25SPEAKER_01: Let them know that it's okay.
- 31:27SPEAKER_01: It is the most therapeutic and cleansing thing that any of us can do.
- 31:32SPEAKER_01: And I do believe that transmutation, because you spoke about this, and it's uh, I really feel like your tears that you were, you know, um on the plane, it wasn't so as much to do with you.
- 31:43SPEAKER_01: Like, yes, there was a component of that with you, but it's also transmuting energy on behalf of the collectives that were there experiencing alchemy.
- 31:50SPEAKER_01: It's we're holding on to that energetic.
- 31:52SPEAKER_01: We've been holding on a space for people for so long that we need to allow that to process through the body.
- 31:58SPEAKER_01: And you've just made me realize I think I I don't have this written down anywhere, but I am almost sure that I cried every day in Bali.
- 32:07SPEAKER_01: And like tears for me are a huge way of just releasing, and I release with gratitude when that happens.
- 32:14SPEAKER_01: I don't give myself a hard time anymore, or at least not not all the time.
- 32:19SPEAKER_02: Actually, the the thing that goes hand in hand again, this was just something that intuitively I have done since Bali as well, is that you know, when you are clearing, uh oh, when you're out there and you're mingling or you're with people, you know that your energy is also being left behind.
- 32:36SPEAKER_02: Or, you know, there are people generally in life that sometimes we meet that we call energy vampires and that do take our energy, right?
- 32:44SPEAKER_02: They they bonus for that reason, or get involved with us for that reason.
- 32:48SPEAKER_02: And I've started to tap my heart and to call back my energy.
- 32:52SPEAKER_02: So I'll just tap it and like call it back.
- 32:54SPEAKER_02: I bring back my own energy today.
- 32:55SPEAKER_02: And it's also kind of grounds grounds me at the same time as kind of working on the energy.
- 33:01SPEAKER_01: The physicality of tapping on yourself definitely is grounding too.
- 33:05SPEAKER_01: It's that's part of the ritual I do every day in the shower.
- 33:08SPEAKER_01: It's like literally, so I will cleanse, you know, whatever is not mine, whatever no longer serves me.
- 33:14SPEAKER_01: I allow that to go down the drain into Mother Earth.
- 33:18SPEAKER_01: That's part of it.
- 33:18SPEAKER_01: And then I call back my energy um in a cleanse and repaired, you know, high vibrational state.
- 33:24SPEAKER_02: I need to take a leaf out of your book.
- 33:25SPEAKER_02: You are just too good at this, Diane.
- 33:27SPEAKER_01: I but I I love that, and I literally like I it just makes me feel and I do this like I literally say, you know, I I call it back to me from all from uh this lifetime and all lifetimes, from this timeline, all timelines.
- 33:41SPEAKER_01: Like I will literally expand it out as much as I possibly can to say this is what I'm calling it back, but calling it back in a cleanse and repaired state.
- 33:50SPEAKER_01: So I don't want, you know, the heaviness of maybe I've sent, you know, I've been supporting someone through something.
- 33:56SPEAKER_01: I don't want it back in a damaged or, you know, you know, an uncentered sort of a way or an ungrounded way.
- 34:03SPEAKER_01: It's just, and I think any of these practices that we do for a long time that become our kind of core toolkit, they just become inherently like I couldn't imagine getting into the shower and not doing that now.
- 34:15SPEAKER_01: It's just part of my routine.
- 34:16SPEAKER_01: It's like brushing your teeth, you know, it's there's just the whole thing is woven into it.
- 34:21SPEAKER_01: But I think other other things that are really good from a clearing perspective, and I know this is uh more on the, I won't say extreme end, but it is like I guess it's used for a specific function, which is cord cutting, where you're literally, you know, you've come to a point with whether it is um an attachment to someone or something or a workplace um or a situation, and you just think, okay, I now need to do something energetic and intentional that I'm cutting the cords with this person, this situation, whatever it is.
- 34:56SPEAKER_01: And there's a a whole process involved in that as well.
- 35:00SPEAKER_01: And whether you do it that you're following an exact process, like just be intuitive about it.
- 35:05SPEAKER_01: Think to yourself, imagine that you're cutting the cord, you can see that cord between you and whoever the situation or person is, and you're going through cutting it.
- 35:13SPEAKER_01: It's that for me, again, uh has become uh ingrained into everything that I do.
- 35:20SPEAKER_01: Like I uh it's not something that I wait for a situation to get really, really bad and then decide, oh, I'm now going to do cord cutting and I've left it fester for three months.
- 35:31SPEAKER_01: It's like continually just ending, and I view it in terms of almost like timelines.
- 35:36SPEAKER_01: I'm cutting cords with this timeline, this situation, and that I'm reconnecting on a higher, higher vibration timeline, that it's like that person, that situation will come back to me.
- 35:47SPEAKER_01: Because there's lots of things in life where, you know, like if I take the example of ending a business relationship or ending a romantic relationship, it's like you may not want to end the relationship with the person, but there may be some behaviors or it's a toxic workplace and you are, you know, you're hoping that a certain situation will resolve itself.
- 36:07SPEAKER_01: Cut the cord with that timeline, with that instance of what's happening right now, and set the intention for a better outcome to, you know, to kind of change the trajectory of how you're how you're both operating in that situation.
- 36:20SPEAKER_01: Like it's a good idea.
- 36:21SPEAKER_02: Oh, that's a good idea.
- 36:22SPEAKER_02: Diane, on behalf of all spiritualist foot listeners, have you ever considered writing a spiritual textbook?
- 36:33SPEAKER_03: Oh, I wish I could take a leap out of your book.
- 36:36SPEAKER_03: I need to be reading this stuff.
- 36:39SPEAKER_00: Oh my god, maybe it's all those years working in corporate all the systems and processes.
- 36:44SPEAKER_02: It's good not.
- 36:44SPEAKER_02: It's just when my brain works.
- 36:47SPEAKER_02: All of these things that we're going through, it's just you've got to experiment.
- 36:51SPEAKER_02: Like you have to experiment for just what feels right.
- 36:55SPEAKER_02: Because obviously, it's not feeling right, it's probably not working, let's be honest.
- 36:59SPEAKER_02: So you've listened to what we're saying, but go and try your stuff.
- 37:02SPEAKER_02: And it might need to be a little bit more down to earth, like if you need to clear your energy, just go and do a word dump on a journal in your journal.
- 37:10SPEAKER_02: Um, yes, whatever it is, it's all about routine and habit.
- 37:13SPEAKER_02: Like Diane's doing so well and he's putting me to shame.
- 37:18SPEAKER_02: But it is about habit.
- 37:20SPEAKER_02: Um, and I have my little things that are, you know, have become habitual for me and they have really helped.
- 37:26SPEAKER_02: And I think you can take it as as far as you feel like you need to take it.
- 37:31SPEAKER_02: Um, but importance of doing these kind of quick resets through the day, whether it's starting your day with a really good ritual like Diane does, or having your little things that you can pull out, the resets are the key here.
- 37:44SPEAKER_02: But yes, um, I feel like I'll start taking orders for Diane's textbook soon here.
- 37:51SPEAKER_01: Oh my god, there are just there are just so many things.
- 37:54SPEAKER_01: Like there, what I have to say is that while I'm a person of routine in some ways, the most important thing for me is having a you know a toolkit of things that I can dip into.
- 38:04SPEAKER_01: I will always tune into myself and say, what do I need in this moment?
- 38:08SPEAKER_01: What do I need right now?
- 38:09SPEAKER_01: Is it to do a shake meditation?
- 38:11SPEAKER_01: Is it to go and do some breath work?
- 38:12SPEAKER_01: Is it to do a chakra alignment?
- 38:14SPEAKER_01: Is it to, you know, do a clearing body scan?
- 38:17SPEAKER_01: What is it that I need in this moment?
- 38:19SPEAKER_01: And normally, because then I've got the toolkit of lots of different options, then it's like, oh, I'll just choose this one today.
- 38:25SPEAKER_01: Almost like a pick and mix a lot of one of them and two of them, or but it's never a, yeah, there are certain things that I probably do every day, but a lot of it is just tune into it in the moment and honor.
- 38:37SPEAKER_01: Half of this stuff I'll make up as I go.
- 38:39SPEAKER_01: I don't have to have somebody else's, you know, guidebook or instructions.
- 38:44SPEAKER_01: They might inspire things, but then it's like just trust your own intuition, trust your inner compass, trust trust your own belief in yourself of what your body, what your mind, what your soul, what your spirit actually needs.
- 38:57SPEAKER_02: And if if you are kind of listening to this going, now I wish I had access to this type of stuff.
- 39:02SPEAKER_02: It's really why we invented the spiritual renegade community.
- 39:06SPEAKER_02: In there, we've built toolkits, uh, a spiritual awakening toolkit that like covers all of this energy hygiene stuff.
- 39:13SPEAKER_02: And then we have lots of meditations and activations and everything for people like you, like-minded people that are listening right now, that want to learn how to put this stuff in real life and want quick access where you don't need to think about it or go even on Google.
- 39:28SPEAKER_02: It's just there.
- 39:29SPEAKER_02: So definitely check that out and we'll put the link to that in the show notes for anyone that's interested.
- 39:34SPEAKER_02: Now let's move on now because I know that we could talk about this stuff forever, Diane.
- 39:38SPEAKER_02: Protection.
- 39:40SPEAKER_02: So when do we use protection?
- 39:43SPEAKER_02: I guess for me, when you're heading into a crowd, uh, when you want to stay clear, especially if you've got a big meeting.
- 39:51SPEAKER_02: I think I use protection.
- 39:53SPEAKER_02: If I'm going into a challenging situation and I need to like actually energize myself and expand my energy and feel that uh I've got my personal boundaries in place.
- 40:06SPEAKER_02: Um, what about you?
- 40:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I think I don't, and I know I've said this on the podcast before, but it's like I don't view it in terms of protection because when I think of protection, it means I'm trying to keep myself safe and I do not subscribe to that.
- 40:21SPEAKER_01: Like for me, it's a case of I am setting my energetic boundaries.
- 40:25SPEAKER_01: That's how I view it.
- 40:26SPEAKER_01: So it's that um case of what is my energetic field?
- 40:31SPEAKER_01: How am I taking personal responsibility for it?
- 40:34SPEAKER_01: How am I maximizing it?
- 40:36SPEAKER_01: And how am I setting the boundary of what I allow through and don't allow through?
- 40:40SPEAKER_01: And so it's almost like then my what do you call it, your Taurus field, your um your auric field, that you're pushing that, the boundaries of that out and out from you, and then you're you've got like a little bouncer on the door that's kind of saying, Yep, you can go in.
- 40:56SPEAKER_01: No, you can't.
- 40:56SPEAKER_01: And I like that, that's literally how I view it.
- 40:59SPEAKER_01: I'm not viewing that I'm um protecting myself from anything.
- 41:04SPEAKER_01: Because if I take personal responsibility for keeping my vibration as high as I can, so that to me is the most important thing.
- 41:10SPEAKER_01: If I'm keeping my energetics high, imagining visualizing my field being as extensive as and expansive as it possibly can, that is what inherently protects me.
- 41:22SPEAKER_01: Like as in it's it's I agree.
- 41:25SPEAKER_02: It's it the word protect, it's not really the right word to use, is it?
- 41:28SPEAKER_02: Because I imagine it's like having your house and you have a garden fence around the outside of it, and that's just your boundary, you know.
- 41:34SPEAKER_02: So that boundary just automatically says, you stay out, this is mine.
- 41:39SPEAKER_01: Yes, and it's funny because on that, one of the big things that I do that is again an energetic boundary, is um doing the practice of seven circles.
- 41:49SPEAKER_01: So around like the boundary of my home.
- 41:52SPEAKER_01: Like I'll do this for myself, or if I'm if I'm facilitating for um alchemy, like the sessions that we were in, that this is the energetic boundary of what's allowed and not allowed into this space.
- 42:05SPEAKER_01: And for my home, like I've done it every house that I've moved to while I've been renting, um, it's on my house in Ireland, and it's literally the whole perimeter, the boundary, doing seven circles and being very, very intentional about saying, you know, what like feeling into the all of the feelings that I want to have in this space.
- 42:24SPEAKER_01: So all the love, the joy, the happiness, the growth, the development, the, you know, just that compassion, all of those things.
- 42:31SPEAKER_01: And I will sit in those feelings and pushing them out through, you know, to set the boundary, but also setting the boundary of what can come through.
- 42:39SPEAKER_01: So people like literally, the the visualization for me is that any person who comes up my driveway, anyone who comes into my property, they're leaving their baggage at the door.
- 42:51SPEAKER_01: Now they can take their baggage with them if their intention is growth and development and healing, but they don't come into my space and you know, do shit and leave me in an energetic, horrible place.
- 43:04SPEAKER_01: And the amount of people who've said to me, particularly about like our, you know, our family home that we had here in in Australia was like the entertaining house.
- 43:13SPEAKER_01: It was the place where, you know, everybody came.
- 43:15SPEAKER_01: We had, you know, whatever, pool parties, barbecues, you know, big, big nights of everybody gathering.
- 43:21SPEAKER_01: Same in in Ireland.
- 43:24SPEAKER_01: It's like it like the amount of people who tell me, oh, it feels like home.
- 43:28SPEAKER_01: It feels like such a safe space.
- 43:30SPEAKER_01: And I think, oh, the fact that you mention that makes me feel really good.
- 43:34SPEAKER_01: But I know what it is.
- 43:36SPEAKER_01: It is that I have been very, very intentional about what I allow in and what I don't allow in.
- 43:41SPEAKER_01: And I'll like when I go back to Ireland, I'll do that again.
- 43:44SPEAKER_01: Like I'll reinforce those boundaries again.
- 43:47SPEAKER_01: But it is very much an intention and an energetic intention setting of boundaries for what I allow in for myself and for yeah, for my the property that I'm living in or the place that I'm facilitating.
- 44:01SPEAKER_02: Interesting.
- 44:01SPEAKER_02: This yesterday morning I did a meditation and this analogy came to me about this exact subject.
- 44:07SPEAKER_02: So perhaps I'm meant to just share it now.
- 44:09SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 44:09SPEAKER_02: Uh I I was shown that when you're talking about this type of energy and boundaries and protection, it's not about putting walls up, as we know, because we don't just want to do an absolute block.
- 44:22SPEAKER_02: I got shown that it's like wearing sunscreen.
- 44:25SPEAKER_02: It's actually just a filter.
- 44:27SPEAKER_02: So even though you wear your sunscreen, you're actually stopping the bad stuff coming in, but you still want the sun, you still want the vitamin D as an example.
- 44:36SPEAKER_02: So it's this idea of having a filter that's just in your control, of allowing the but the really beautiful best things to come through, but saying this filter actually just stops the negative and the lower vibration frequency things that can just stay outside of that.
- 44:51SPEAKER_02: And I loved that analogy.
- 44:52SPEAKER_02: I'm like, that is, yeah, I I get that.
- 44:55SPEAKER_02: That's awesome.
- 44:56SPEAKER_01: It is it's funny another way that that I love as well.
- 45:01SPEAKER_01: It's almost like the um unsubscribe button that if there are things that are happening around you, so say there's some family drama or you know, something that you feel you're kind of getting sucked into and you can feel your energy kind of leaving you into and that people are demanding that you pay attention to this.
- 45:20SPEAKER_01: Um for me, it's like there's there's like a visualization that it's a click unsubscribe button in my head.
- 45:27SPEAKER_01: And I just think if it's drama related, if it is depleting me, if it's bringing me into lower vibration, unsubscribe.
- 45:34SPEAKER_01: The other one then is if it's something that literally um say it's a programming thing.
- 45:41SPEAKER_01: So, you know, regardless of what your thoughts are on say vaccination as an example, or if um, you know, world war three is impending, you know, all of these things, and I just think no permission.
- 45:54SPEAKER_01: I am not allowing, like literally, there's a big thing in my hand that I just in my head visualize.
- 46:01SPEAKER_01: It's like, no, no permission.
- 46:03SPEAKER_01: I am not giving any of my energetic and energy, any of my thought processing to this.
- 46:09SPEAKER_01: It's just not allowed in my field.
- 46:11SPEAKER_02: Yeah, uh, hell yes.
- 46:14SPEAKER_02: And yeah, I feel like there's so many ways to do this type of protection.
- 46:19SPEAKER_02: The one that I do with my kids is the invisible jacket, putting the hood up and zipping up the front of the jacket.
- 46:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so I that's a nice, easy one.
- 46:29SPEAKER_02: Just imagine you're putting the hood up.
- 46:31SPEAKER_02: Okay, you are protected.
- 46:32SPEAKER_02: There we go.
- 46:33SPEAKER_02: You're gonna stay warm today with your nice little jacket on.
- 46:35SPEAKER_02: Or the simple ones like wearing a bracelet for me, you know, wearing um like the darker colour crystal bracelet is a really good thing for me as well.
- 46:44SPEAKER_02: Just even that makes me feel really good and kind of reminds me at least.
- 46:49SPEAKER_02: It gives me the reminder to do the practices, which I think is important.
- 46:53SPEAKER_02: Um protection to me is something that takes the practice and it is something that needs to be done every day for like 30 days to get it really stuck in your head.
- 47:07SPEAKER_02: Would you agree?
- 47:08SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 47:09SPEAKER_01: And I think for me it is that ingrained, you know, like to me, when I'm teaching clients, and to like, I mean, I don't talk about this in terms of like unless they're a particularly spiritual client, which you know, a lot of them aren't, I'll still talk about it in terms of the higher you can keep your vibration, the higher you can keep your um your state of mental well-being, let's put it that way.
- 47:36SPEAKER_01: So it's if you're keeping yourself at the highest possible, that you're filled with love, with joy, with awe, gratitude is the biggest thing.
- 47:44SPEAKER_01: If you can sit in the energetics of gratitude and allow that to flood through your whole system, then that is what, like that's actually amplifying your field.
- 47:54SPEAKER_01: That is what's basically, you know, becomes, if you imagine, the energetic bubble that things will just ping off.
- 48:01SPEAKER_01: It's like you're not, you're no longer touched or you're no longer dragged down by things that are lower, more lower vibration.
- 48:09SPEAKER_01: So you're taking responsibility for your energetics for yourself.
- 48:13SPEAKER_01: But if you can do that, sit in those higher vibration feelings and do that multiple times throughout the day at the traffic lights.
- 48:21SPEAKER_01: Like literally, well, you're brushing your teeth.
- 48:23SPEAKER_01: First thing, like for me, the minute I wake up in the morning, that is, unless it's a day that I haven't slept sleep in, then it's not very, not very graceful.
- 48:36SPEAKER_01: But literally, before my first thing that I'll do in the morning is I before I allow myself to wake up fully, my eyes are still closed.
- 48:45SPEAKER_01: I will feel into almost like yeah, like being wrapped in a warm blanket, being, you know, filled with love, filled with gratitude, filled with just the awe for life.
- 48:56SPEAKER_01: And I let that flood through me and amplify out.
- 49:00SPEAKER_01: And I will imagine it going out of my body, out of my room, out of my house, out of the country, and just expand, expand, expand.
- 49:06SPEAKER_01: And like I'll do that as I'm waking up and as I'm going to sleep.
- 49:11SPEAKER_01: They're the and it just it's probably become more and more and more of a practice that I tie into manifestation as well.
- 49:19SPEAKER_01: That it's like I was just gonna say that.
- 49:21SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's like because then I'll visualize all the things that I'm grateful for that haven't come to pass yet.
- 49:27SPEAKER_01: So it is, but it is a beautiful thing because it does, it supercharges your whole energetic field.
- 49:33SPEAKER_01: And if you do that multiple times throughout the day, so whatever the thing is for you, I think we're both saying the same thing that is so important.
- 49:40SPEAKER_01: Get into the practice of doing it multiple, multiple times per day rather than it just being a tick in the box, like really um live in this.
- 49:49SPEAKER_01: It's not just a oh, do it in the morning, do it in the evening.
- 49:52SPEAKER_01: It's like spend as much time as you possibly can in these energetic states, and that's what will serve you.
- 49:58SPEAKER_02: Just spend the time to reflect on yourself.
- 50:00SPEAKER_02: This is actually a process of getting to know yourself and what's good for you and what's not good for you.
- 50:05SPEAKER_02: Um, and it's also something that anchors in the practice of intuition.
- 50:09SPEAKER_02: So if you are someone that wants to develop intuition, you're in the process of it.
- 50:14SPEAKER_02: These tiny simple practices will allow you to be in that centered place, to open all of the intuitive senses, to connect with the body, to receive information.
- 50:26SPEAKER_02: Radi rahdi rah.
- 50:28SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 50:28SPEAKER_02: So they are just positive.
- 50:30SPEAKER_02: Let's leave it there.
- 50:32SPEAKER_02: Simple.
- 50:33SPEAKER_02: Um, I would love to offer everyone a challenge.
- 50:39SPEAKER_02: How about we kickstart after you listen to this podcast, a seven-day challenge where each morning you create a little bit of time, and let's face it, doesn't need to be long, three minutes perhaps, where you ground, clear, and protect your energetic field.
- 50:58SPEAKER_02: And you journal every day, at the end of every day, with a few a few thoughts on how you felt, how your energy has been, uh, and see where you are by the end of that seven days and report back to us on Instagram at spiritual.a.f.
- 51:13SPEAKER_02: What do you think, Diane?
- 51:14SPEAKER_01: Oh, I love it.
- 51:15SPEAKER_01: You know me, anything that's uh into experimentation or trialing stuff, I absolutely love it.
- 51:21SPEAKER_01: And it is, we can talk about this until we're blooming the face, but at the end of the day, it only works when you put stuff into practice, and there's nothing like a bit of a challenge to get us building some of those good habits.
- 51:34SPEAKER_02: Yeah, absolutely.
- 51:35SPEAKER_02: It is it really is around finding this stuff out for yourself.
- 51:38SPEAKER_02: Um, you can read it and hear us absolutely talking and talking and talking about it.
- 51:43SPEAKER_02: But go and try it and please share your energy journeys with us on Instagram or Facebook or wherever you find us, even through Spotify, you can leave comments now.
