Ep. 162 Why Is It So Hard to Talk About Money?

Spirit Sessions Guest - IG post (2)

Today, Katie is joined on the show by one of our beloved Shakti School teachers Lisa Marie Rankin to discuss a topic we’re all afraid to talk about, money!  On top of being an author, teacher, and Ayurvedic Wellness Coach, Lisa Marie is the ultimate business mama and we’re here to break down this taboo topic. Join Lisa Marie and Katie as they discuss the physiology of women and why we aren’t supposed to be in meetings around the clock, practical ways for women to start their business, and how to take responsibility for your own financial life.

This episode is a sneak peek into what Lisa Marie covers in Shakti School, so be sure to sign up for Level 1 Ayurveda School starting in January to go even deeper on this topic and all things spiritual Ayurveda and Tantra in 2024. 

In this episode you’ll hear: 

~ Why people, especially women are so uncomfortable talking about money

~ The bigger vision around the feminine way of doing business 

~ Why the traditional 9-5 and taking the linear path in life doesn’t always feel good in our bodies

~ Why your email list is so important and how to build it

Ep. 157 How We Squirm Off Our Chance to Really Love (Tantra Talks #7)

This is a picture of Katie Silcox. The text reads, "Spirit Sessions: Find your true spiritual home with Katie Silcox."

This episode is a bootleg broadcast from the Spirit Sessions Membership, our members-only live monthly workshop.

This episode is all about self-love! Not the self-love that includes massaging our breasts with coconut oil and reminding ourselves that we’re a goddess (although we love this daily ritual). Instead, we’re opening our hearts and deepening our understanding of self-love through conversation and integration.

In this episode you’ll hear: 

~ How we become adept at wiggling away from ourselves, the present moment and our bodies

~ What is ‘the spot’?

~ How we become aware of the way we squirm away from ‘the spot’

~ Ways to return to ourselves and be with what is actually there in the moment

Ep. 156 Not Your New Age Mama’s Manifestation

Spirit Sessions Podcast Guest for website

Join Katie and her dear mentor and friend Cristal Mortensen for a conversation about manifestation. Manifestation is both what we do and are, so by opening more deeply to our true selves, we can experience more of what we want in life. Learn why the common approaches to thinking and feeling your way to manifestation don’t work for most people, and what to do instead.

Cristal leads us through a powerful guided practice that you can use to begin manifesting today!

In this episode you’ll hear: 

~ What is manifestation?

~ How our heart is the bridge between reality and limitless possibility

~ You are manifesting right now and all the time

~ How to honor the universal struggle of dissatisfaction, “not enough,” and inner poverty

~ The spontaneous arising of what we want vs. “forcing it”

~ Feeling difficult emotions without being swallowed by them

~ How desire and not having are two sides of the same coin

~ Why we don’t need to avoid negative thoughts and feelings to manifest

~ Why Katie calls herself a “recovering manifester”

~ How to liberate and loosen our perception of ourselves and the world

~ Experiencing the process of becoming (unmanifest to manifest)

~ How to manifest from feminine energy

~ The importance of the energetic, etheric realm in manifesting

~ Getting in touch with our deeper desires and questions

~ A guided practice to begin manifesting today!

~ Join us inside The Shakti School for Cristal’s 8-week course, Energy 101. Learn how to work with your body's energy to heal, vitalize and awaken to spirit! Moreover, this course will provide the framework for working with your own energy and bringing these techniques into your own healing arts practice while working with others.

The healing era hits different when you stop exili The healing era hits different when you stop exiling parts of yourself and invite them ALL to take up space in your inner world. The inner chaos gremlin? She may not always have the best delivery, but she puts us back in touch with our instincts and our fire. (She just needs to work in close collaboration with our more adult, wise, heart-centered Self to be truly effective 😉🔥.) 

When you stop managing yourself like a math equation and start embracing the mythical essence of all of your inner selves, your true magnetism, radiance and energy is unleashed. 🗝️
Summer makes us want to worship the sun – and it Summer makes us want to worship the sun – and it makes sense. We like feeling warm, golden and satisfied. The sun is literally life-giving! 🌞 In addition to ruling our agni (i.e. our inner fire, also known as our metabolism) the sun gives us ENERGY: ambition, passion, clarity and that unmistakable glow. Of course we want to bask in it!⁠
⁠
The key to basking in summer’s warm glow is to take care so that we don’t end up overheated, fire-engine red and hungover.⁠
⁠
To balancing the fire element in summer, aim to:⁠
⁠
🏋🏽‍♀️ Avoid intense exercise during peak sun (10am-2pm)⁠
⁠
🧘🏼‍♀️ Cool down any hot, fiery intensity with slower-moving exercise and breathing techniques⁠
⁠
😴 Sleep on your right side to cool the nervous system⁠
⁠
🕶️ Slowly acclimate to spending time in the sun and avoid peak UV exposure; get morning or late afternoon sun when instead (sunrise and sunset are ideal times to soak in the light!)⁠
⁠
Are you ready to harmonize your routines, nutrition, herbs and spiritual practices with nature’s rhythms, and support other women in doing the same?⁠
