Summary: Jesse Herriott is joined this week by Na' Aak' Paola Ambrosi, shamanic healer, mystic and Mexican-born medicine woman. She embodies the native indigenous wisdom of the Earth, weaving the spiritual and mystical aspects of life together with science and psychology. She is the author of Awakening Consciousness, a brilliant insight into the human condition and the path to inner freedom. Paola believes in active peace and compassion; she believes our strength resides within our own heart. For Paola, there is no separation between work and life-the path of Spirit is a conscious way of living. Paola has been given the spiritual name Ná Áak, which means Mother Turtle-symbol of strength, permanence and wisdom. She has spent most of her life studying and practicing the art of indigenous wisdom from the Toltec and Mayan people and has a wide experience and exposure to diverse traditions from Latin America, Europe and Asia. She has also studied Tibetan Buddhism with the Kagyu lineage and Kriya Yoga. Paola has trained as a transpersonal psychotherapist and is certified as a Holotropic Breathwork™ facilitator with Dr. Stanislav Grof and GTT Grof Transpersonal Training. She has also studied Western medicine, science and psychology.
