I am so excited to bring you this Solo Jam from Bali today. Today, we are going to be talking about a concept that changed the trajectory of my life, allowed me to simplify my life, and allowed me to be intentional to allow life to flow through me and let it unfold in a way that makes sense. In this episode, we’re going to talk all about the feeling that you want to embody in your system on a day-to-day basis.

Inside this episode, I share:

• The importance of being connected to our feelings
• Why we need to know the feeling we are trying to achieve
• The distinction between the thing that we are doing and the feeling we are trying to feel
• Giving ourselves allowance and permission to feel what we want
• Embodying the vibration in order to experience the fullness of the feeling
• Remembering our essence and feeling into our frequencies to allow us to feel alive and connected

I am so excited to bring you this episode! I had the privilege to interview David Elliot in his beautiful home. He is one of the pioneers in the breathwork movement. As you know, breakwork excites me so much in conjunction with the food and body conversation. Breathwork is just a beautiful catalyst for us to go deeper with the food and body conversation. I loved this conversation with David about his breathwork, the spiritual and physical reason behind it. It was a beautiful conversation and I’m so excited to bring it into the world and share it with you!

About David Elliott

There are many blocks on the healing path.  Each block has its own story; hearing into them is David Elliott’s gift.

Author, teacher and healer David Elliott has spent over two decades helping and inspiring clients from around the world to heal their deepest fears, blocks and negative beliefs. Though no client is the same, the formula he uses never varies.

David combines his intuitive gift of clairaudient hearing to help expedite the healing process for all who work with him, gently guiding and revealing deeply buried histories or beliefs with gentle compassion and grace.  His process is effective in all areas of his work, from private sessions working one-on-one with clients to the group work he leads during healing retreats around the world.

Inside this episode, David shares:

• Why serving and helping others brings joy
• The spark that caused David to create a movement surrounding breathing meditation
• What breathwork is, the science behind it, and what it accomplishes within the body
• David’s desire to equip people to heal themselves rather than creating a dependency
• The relationship between a person’s their hands and their heart during breathwork
• His mission and why David does this work
• Clairaudient hearing and how David uses it in the healing process
• David’s daily practices & rituals
• Promoting self-love and safety within your body through breathwork
• How David’s work integrates into his parenting
• The importance of your relationship with mother earth
• David’s insights into the relationship between eating disorders and abuse energy

I am recording this live from Bali and I really wanted to do this episode from here with a little bit less of the editing and a little bit more rawness. I feel raw. I feel really raw. I feel like I'm going through another unearthing in my life. Another unearthing of what does not belong which, always feels very scary you know? It's this whole idea of like, “I want to keep things as they are and I want a white-knuckle, and I want structure, and I want this, and I want that,” so that I can feel safe. I wanted to bring this message to this podcast today. This whole facade that our external world creates our internal safety.

In this episode, I share:

• Deciding and choosing the emotions we want to feel.
• What does safety feel like in your body?
• Getting above the emotions that keep us stuck.
• Inviting safety into our bodies on a daily basis.
