Host Natasha Levinger and her co-host/husband/producer, Brett eagerly welcome intuitive coach Katie Rose to the show to talk about what Human Design has to say about an upcoming paradigm shift called The Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix. In this episode, they discuss: Thoughts on how cultural evolution is supplanting genetic evolution in humans for emotional and physical growth Everyone is needed in the fight This is the time for allies to be showing up, everywhere Pulling oracle cards for the energy of the next two weeks Recalling Katie's last interview The new paradigm arriving in 2027, according to Human Design The previous paradigm allowed for setting up infrastructure and rigidity The new paradigm (The Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix) allows for gray area, complexity The new paradigm grounds in authenticity and community Not neglecting yourself in the caring of each other How energy healing helps to tell all the parts of yourself when you've changed and grown The importance of dealing with both emotional and intellectual understanding in your healing Brett forgets that podcasts are an auditory medium The advantages of energy work when compared to traditional therapy The hope that traditional therapy will also get a software update Building compassion for yourself allows you to build it for others It's normal to not heal in a "straight line" It is detrimental when we are dogmatic about the supremacy of any single system/philosophy/idea How the human brain views familiarity as safety, even when it is not actually safe But the brain can be re-educated What happened for Katie when a long-healed pattern cropped up again unexpectedly Approaching our own "negative" reactions with curiosity instead of judgement How curiosity can be enough while you are still learning to apply self-compassion Being triggered doesn't mean you're not growing How healing can be like turning on the light in a chaotic room And more!

We're back, woozers!  Well, kind of.  We're back to briefly explain our disappearance, tell you when you can expect to see us back here, and to share Natasha's new podcast, Crystal Ballers!     Here's the show description for Crystal Ballers episode 8. Welcome to Crystal Ballers, a podcast celebrating the audacity to create our future now, with your hosts Britten LaRue and Natasha Levinger. This week, Natasha & Britten are excited to welcome special guest, Xenia Viray.  Xenia Marie Ross Viray (she/they) is an imagination healer, frequency artist, and creativity catalyst. She is the eldest of three sisters, and her name means kindness to strangers. Born as a brick-and-mortar fashion business, Myths of Creation is a container for experiments, art, writing, and gatherings at the intersection of creativity, spirituality, and meaning-making. Xenia guides spirited innovators who want to bring their natural genius into form.  In this episode: Attuning yourself to find the poem within reality Allowing familiar physical tasks to quiet your mind enough to connect to that poem Xenia's eternal inner child is making peace with being a grown being in a human body A body-based approach to timeline creation The relationship between The Conscious Creator and The Allowing Mystic in each of us Xenia's relationship to writing Being at the first Webbie Awards Designing her own writing degree at NYU Powerful affirmations for these (and other) chaotic times You can tune your antenna to what you want and wait for the frequency to come in If you cannot believe something, it's hard to find it in reality There are many realities present, and you do not have to escape reality to experience them now Your desires are your map to new realities How obsession and avoidance can be used to tune into new realities How shame can keep you from doing the work to tune into new timelines Why it can feel like abandoning people when you thrive Where magic and quantum physics meet Tuning yourself to a frequency of suffering is not the most efficient way to create intimacy with someone else Worrying about the optics of self-care rather than the reality of it Learning to see when your own perception is clouded or unclouded The practicality of being an optimistic dreamer Pondering the difference between escaping and dreaming Questioning our own delineations of the "real" world and the "dream" world Daydreaming as a crucial self-care tool Labeling things as "daydreaming" unnecessarily centers this reality as the "main" reality Where we place our consciousness dictates our reality Learn about The Observer Effect on the Double Slit Experiment Our attention is the alchemical mechanism for putting our consciousness onto a timeline We are creating our reality every...single...second Inner child work can help put you and your inner child parts on the same timeline The relationship of The Algorithm to the Observer Effect Obstacles to using the Observer Effect to change reality on a societal level A mystical model for reality can allow you to access facets of yourself for different moments The trap of relationships oriented toward struggle (even shared struggle) How a need or validation can get you stuck in single perspectives Using self-compassion to help scared parts of yourself move into safety We need trust to evolve as a society Some seeds need certain stressors to ever start growing Accepting the moment we're in as an invitation to crack open new ways of being, thinking, feeling Community is so important for resilience The Allegory of The Butterfly & The Imaginal Discs What repulses you can be a signal for self-examination If you're building a business on magic: keep doing what your'e doing And more   Plus...
