Join Vanessa Halloum as she interviews psychotherapist Leslie Davenport on How To Cultivate Feminine Intuition with Guided Imagery. Guided imagery is a method of heightening self-awareness to the subtle workings of our body/mind/emotions/spirit, which reveal themselves to us through images, and it shifts our feminine receptivity into the foreground. Imagery practice has ancient roots and is a very natural way of knowing ourselves and life. But, it has been severely underutilized in our contemporary culture where the more masculine aspects of achievement, analysis, and organization are prized. While logic is necessary and valuable, when we fail to draw upon the full range of human capacity, it creates imbalance. As a psychotherapist in practice for twenty years, Leslie Davenport understands the health impact of thoughts and emotions. Her passion for the mystery of the human spirit drew her to become an ordained interfaith minister in 1984.  Leslie has braided her expertise with body-mind-spirit into her book, Healing and Transformation Through Self Guided Imagery, released by Celestial Arts/Random House. She is a founding member of the Institute for Health & Healing at California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco. Her book and expert advice have appeared in a number of magazines including Family Circle, Natural Health, Great Health, Body + Soul, Shift and San Francisco Medicine.  A sought after speaker, she lectures in a broad range of setting including KRON Television, ABC 7 News, the National Wellness Conference, the Commonwealth Club, etc. For more information, visit: http://www.lesliedavenport.com.

Welcome to the Feminine Soul Radio Show. Check out our free community at www.FeminineSoul.com. How happy are you with your body? What do you think it will take to get you where you want to be? Running 5 days a week? Eating 1,000 calories a day? This is what most of us hear in the media but is it really true? Or is there something else at work? Whatever happened to the body-mind-spirit we’ve all heard about? Join Vanessa Halloum as she interviews author and coach Michelle Hastie on different ways women can connect to the truest version of themselves: body, mind and spirit. Michelle teaches overworked, stressed out entrepreneurs how to reduce stress around food and exercise, remove weight naturally and return to freedom in a body that truly expresses who they are. She created “Hastie Fitness”, a Personal Training Company, in 2008. In 2009 she launched Total Body Health Solutions, a Weight Loss Coaching Company. As a society we are drowning in information and old dieting habits that tell us all we need to do is “eat less and move more.” Having struggled with her own weight, Michelle was proof that these principles do not work for everyone. In the midst of starting her own personal training business, Michelle weighed her heaviest all while exercising 7 days a week and eating only 1500 calories! After a traumatic car accident, Michelle started to lose weight while sitting on the couch unable to move. Through her experience and the immersion in “everything weight loss”, Michelle is happy to use her education and life to help others lose weight and keep it off for good.

Welcome to the Feminine Soul Radio Show. Check out our free community at www.FeminineSoul.com. A very long time ago, human beings lived in harmony with one another and with the earth. There was no warfare, no slavery, and no poverty. Women were respected leaders of society. Then, during a time of climate crisis, a new social order emerged. Chronic warfare, slavery and the subordination of women were its legacy all around the globe. Mythology and history declared that this state of misery was basic to human nature and had existed since the beginning of time. But that was a lie. Archaeology is lifting the veil of history to reveal humanity as it once was. Cooperative, gender-balanced and peaceful. Who we once were, we might yet be again, if we can only remember. Join Vanessa Halloum as she interviews author Nancy Wikarski. Nancy is a fugitive from academia. After earning her Ph.D. from the University of Chicago, she became a computer consultant and then turned to mystery and historical fiction writing.

Welcome to the Feminine Soul Radio Show. Check out our free community at www.FeminineSoul.com. What is an earthly Goddess? A pillar that holds the home…a counselor for her loved ones as well as for herself… the Universe's projection of sensual beauty…the embodiment of love, compassion, patience…the nurturer… A woman that is connected to her inner power carries these tasks flawlessly and in turn feeds her inner soul.  She is connected to her intuition, and seeks answers within, not outside of her. She is not controlling, but passionate about her life's flow. An earthly Goddess takes care of herself first. Not in an egotistical way, but in a compassionate way, by loving and respecting her wants and needs both physically and spiritually. She lives in gratitude and embraces her dark side, because only through this acceptance of herself she can truly know inner peace. She loves and honors her sister Goddesses to support and help the generations to come. The earthly goddess understands the task of raising her offspring; she knows that the future depends on her teachings and her example. She IS the change she wishes to see! Ada Novak is a reverend, teacher of Hatha, Kundalini Yoga, Reiki Master and founder of Laya Center, a sanctuary for women. She has dedicated her life to helping women, or Goddess as she so lovingly refers to them, and continues to do so primarily through various functions and teachings held at Laya Center in Davie, FL. Her spiritual experiences have endowed her with the knowledge of how to help her Goddesses find that inner still point, re-connect to their Soul and find the strength to remain at peace regardless of their circumstances.
