The Secret Witch Show Nicole Barton

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Jamie Wozny. Jamie is a modern day seer and priestess of the Divine and she uses her own powerful, intuitive and energetic mind, body & spirit healing gifts to assist to liberate the light seekers of this world. She does this by guiding you to embody your power, live in your flow & live as your unique divine truth; divinely connected, soul, heart & Source led. Working with her activates fulfilment of your Divine Mission.
In this episode Jamie and Nicole explored how to open our hearts to miracles, by embodying our inner Feminine magic.  We explore what our inner ‘Feminine magic’ even is, and how the ‘energetic’ shift into our Feminine essence - which Jamie defines as softness, vulnerability, openness and joy - can help us come down into our bodies and open our hearts to being the fullness of our souls. And, of course, create miracles in life and help us embrace our healing gifts!

What You’ll Learn from this Episode:
We are taught that all the things that are Feminine - our bodies, our softness, our tenderness, our radiance, our joy, our pleasure, our vulnerability, our depth, our hearts - don’t matter, and to forget about them and be more in the ‘Masculine’ logic, drive, force, push - but really it is being embodied in our ‘Feminine’ essence that creates miracles
It is the deeper ‘energetic’ choice into that which has us embody our feminine - and when we make that deeper ‘energetic’ choice into our Feminine magic, the world sees it and shifts how it responds to us
Being in the body helps that - and what has us embodied in our Feminine essence is unique for us all - some helpful prompts to discover how to embody your Feminine magic include asking: what would feel luxurious for me? What would feel softening for me?  What would feel joyful for me?  What do I need?  
Being in our Feminine actually has us create miracles without forcing - creative ideas flow through us when we follow the joy, though this can be hard to trust.  It can be helpful to be in a journaling exercise of looking for ‘disconfirming evidence’ that we ‘can’t’ trust magic - look for proof of the miracles that occur when we are following our Feminine joy and flow
Part of Feminine magic is also being with the darkness - fully feeling our feelings - letting them move through us - and so it’s important to love and welcome these aspects of ourselves for deeper healing and opening to magic - it’s what transmutes us to our divinity.
Vulnerability is a key piece of the alchemy - when we learn to show up in the truth of our hearts, we are received and can experience our true radiance and being fully seen as who we are - and that’s the biggest miracle of all

On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole explores the juicy topic of one of the most common fears of becoming a healer, teacher or guide: the fear of ‘judgement’ and ‘rejection - and how to heal it so you can share your gifts authentically.  She explores the Archetypal Remedy that you can harness to begin to unconditionally love and approve of yourself enough to not need approval, sharing a vulnerable story about her own experience of rejection and how going *into* the experience of rejection helped her heal her fear. 
 
In this episode we explore the 3 stages of reclamation of our wild, authentic, true expression, why it’s important for healers that we are authentic, the signs we are being called to heal our fear of judgement and rejection - and the most important things to do as a beginning step into this self-healing.

What You’ll Learn from this Episode:
The common fear of being a healer and being ‘judged’ and ‘rejected’ is part of the Witch Wound, which makes sense due to epigenetics and how we feel this fear ingrained in our bodies
The challenge with healing our fear of ‘judgement’ and ‘rejection’ is that we have to experience it to fully liberate ourselves from it
We can take small, tender steps into learning to heal our expression, rather than having to make big leaps - steps that have us expand with a well-tended nervous system
The deep work of healing involves us learning to unconditionally love ourselves, harnessing Archetypal Mama She-Wolf’s (or Lupa’s) self-motherly energy.  When we love ourselves deeply enough, others rejecting us can’t have the same impact
There’s a swing between the poles of Good Girl and Rebel that is often needed as we begin to heal our fear of judgement and rejection - and claim our true ‘wildness’ - but the real alchemy is in the ‘third way’; the way of learning to be our true, authentic selves, from love and vulnerability - baring our souls as the medicine they are.

On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole is exploring the sense of ‘overwhelm’ that can often be felt in knowing ‘where to start’ in the journey of opening to becoming a healer - especially with the amount of ‘quick fix’ false promises on offer, that can leave us disheartened.  She explores how you might know you are feeling the call to be a healer (even amidst the fears) - and how to get clarity on your next tender steps in your journey, helping you answering the question: “where do I begin?”

In this episode Nicole explores the most potent ‘Archetypal Apothecary’ resources that can help you begin to open to your gifts - inviting you to begin with our potent ‘Starter Pack’ which is packed with all the information you need to begin to access your own wisdom about how to become a healer from integrity and honesty.  She shares how to work with the ‘Illumination Workbook’ in particular, which provides a guide to self-illumination and self-discovery of 3 things that will help you get clarity to move forwards: your ‘Fears’ (what’s holding you back), your ‘Soul’s Vision’ (which should always be your ‘compass’) and your ‘Next Steps’ (what’s the next breadcrumb for you to follow) - whether that’s something in our path, or something else entirely.

What You’ll Learn from this Episode:
It can so often be overwhelming when we begin to open to the journey of becoming a healer - there are so many opinions ‘out there’, externally, as to where to begin - including many ‘quick fix’ promises, that heart-breakingly often leave us feeling disappointed
And yet, the most potent place to begin is by accessing your own wisdom; via self-illumination and self-discovery (one of the 8 Elements of our path) which can help you begin to heal yourself
The Archetypal Apothecary ‘Starter Kit’ and ‘Illumination Workbook’ are the resources that guide you into the 3 potent explorations of your ‘Fears’ (what holds you back), your ‘Soul Vision’ (which becomes your compass) and offers clarity on your ‘Next Steps’ (the next breadcrumb you’re being called to take)
If you don’t know where to begin, start there - there’s so much gold in this resource; it’s not like your average ‘free’ resource; we put *everything* we possibly can into our free resources (just as we would a paid journey), and there’s hundreds of pounds worth of value in them
The invitation is to not rush your journey with the Starter Pack and Illumination Workbook - there’s gold in these resources that’s been intentionally designed as the tender first steps, but they won’t be a ‘quick fix’, they do require you to take some time working through the potent enquiries, practices and rituals in there for you

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Loren Cellentani. Loren used to feel like a victim to her body and emotions sabotaging her dreams. It led her to deeply listen and work with the body to uncover how to harness life force energy, process emotions & alchemise her pain into power - all through breathwork, somatic movement and visualization. Her mission is to help lightworkers get out of their heads and into their bodies so they can fulfil their purpose and potential in this lifetime. Loren guides women to own their power, rule their reality and live their purpose in her group program, Sovereign Mastermind, and her podcast, Witchy Wellness Radio.
In this episode Loren and I co-create around so many synergies in our worldview; in particular, the importance of embodiment.  Exploring ‘somatic movement’ as an embodiment practice for ‘moving’ our emotions and discovering the hidden patterns held in our cells, Loren explored how our inner little girl carried old stories in her body - and that to truly ‘rule our reality’, we need to alchemise these and embody who we long to become - harnessing movement for both things.  We spoke about the importance of connecting to our emotions and healing via movement - with Loren offering some very practical tools and tips for beginning to work with it and what practices to get started with.  

What You’ll Learn from this Episode:
The etymology of ‘somatic’ means the ‘body’ - and the body feels emotion - or ‘energy in motion’.  We harness movement to combine the two - to move energy, to heal, to manifest our desires - and to do that, we have to get out of our own way (out of our mind into our body)
We are not ‘victims’ to our bodies - our bodies are not ‘in the way’, they are ‘the most spiritual thing about us’ - they act as an ‘alarm system’ saying “this is not for you” (or “this *is* for you”).  And our bodies want to heal
The true definition of “Sovereign”, according to Loren,  is the “Divine right to rule our reality” - and every moment we have the opportunity to own the gold that can be found in our wounds, when we are courageous enough to go into the body and alchemise the energy in there into our Sovereign power
Our menstrual cycle is powerful - our bodies show us, via our cycle, where we have avoided looking at things for the month - even small things. When we give our bodies grace, love them and let them guide us , and learn to trust them, we are able to manifest what we truly desire
It doesn’t have to be scary - we just take the next small step, and the next - beginning to tune into our bodies - until the big decisions eventually become the next small step too
Somatic movement can be anything that moves the body - it can be yoga, ecstatic dance, working out, going for a run, slow dancing - but essentially it’s anything where we are ‘making love’ to our bodies - and it doesn’t have to be in a sexual way, but a ‘sensual’ way, where we are present with our body’s senses  
We can begin with a simple exercise of asking “how does my body want to move?” and notice if you were judging yourself, or feeling resistance, and loving yourself in that, and letting the body lead the way.
We can work with embodiment in two ways - both for processing wounding and also for embodying the woman we long to become.

On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole is speaking to one of the common fears that comes up for aspiring healers: the deep fears of ‘absorbing other’s energy’ and ‘burning out’ that often stop women from fully stepping into the journey of becoming a healer - thinking that they’re ‘too sensitive’ for it.  
 
In this episode Nicole discusses how women born to be ‘healers’ are born with a deep natural sensitivity, and what this really means for them, exploring the birth constitution (or make up) of a ‘healer’.  She explores a way of working with reclaiming the deep self-honouring that’s required - and the capacity to hold inner boundaries - in order to reclaim our gifts without burning out and taking on others’ energy.  She also explores the one deeper underlying fear that often stops us fully self-honouring and protecting our energy.



What You’ll Learn from this Episode:
 
‘Sensitivity’ is one of the things that most aspiring healers - who are constitutionally ‘Archetypal Phosphorus’ - shame about themselves, and fear will stop them becoming healers - yet it also holds a deep gift; without sensitivity, we wouldn’t *be* healers
To begin healing this ‘Surface Layer’ wound of sensitive, ‘Phosphoric’ women - and to stop absorbing energy and burning out - we need to work with the Archetypal Remedy, ‘She-Wolf’ (or Lupa); and especially the Motherly energy of the milk of the She-Wolf, which is about reclaiming our inner wildness and honouring our inner-boundaries (in a nurturing way, from love)
We will often fear our ‘inner wild’ will be rejected as ‘too much’, ‘too wild’, or be ‘disapproved of’ or ‘judged’, and so we - as sensitive women - often deny our *true* needs and burn ourselves into the ground; and it’s at that point where other people’s energy will feel too much
Other people are only ever acting as mirrors for aspects of ourselves that want reclaiming; if we learn to receive ‘triggers’ from others ‘taking our energy’ as a call to honour our true needs as sensitive women, we can, too, heal and open to reclaiming our gifts as healers
Outer-boundaries are often set 'first, and then we get upset when they are ‘dishonoured’ by others - yet, the really deep work is to learn to ‘honour’ our own ‘inner boundaries’ for ourselves’ the world shifts as we do, energetically
The work is to begin to hear our wild ‘inner No’, so that we can then begin to open to our true deep ‘Yes’ to the desire and vision of becoming the healer we were born to be; otherwise, we *will* end up burning out, pleasing everyone and taking on everything from everyone else.

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Shanti Zimmerman. Shanti described herself as “a human, just like you”.  She has learned how to navigate being human with deep integrity, clarity, and a focus on growth and real life. She has complex and compound trauma from her childhood that, for a portion of her life, made it hard to be alive. The work that she facilitates is based on how she found her way to a life worth living.  She had a whole lot to unlearn and a ton of adult skill-sets she had to develop and practice and she shares everything she knows from her lived experience. She believes that liberation is our natural default setting as human beings and she contributes to it in every moment of her life.
 
In this episode we explore the notion of ‘healing’ and the language around it - and especially how we don’t need to outsource our power to ‘quick fixes’, but if we learn to deconstruct blame, shame and guilt, we can learn to embody our adulthood, make new choices and embody deep self-trust.  Shanti describes blame, shame and guilt as “synthetic” constructs - “behaviour controllers”  that are not our innate natural emotions - and narratives that invoke emotional response, or a ‘habit’ that creates somatic response in our bodies - exploring how it is possible we can alchemise shame and radically refuse to engage with our self-oppression.
 
What You’ll Learn from this Episode:
 
Blame, shame and guilt are the foundational ‘root’ of other ‘synthetic’ emotions that feel awful in our bodies - that’s usually how we know we are experiencing them
Yet, blame, shame and guilt are not ‘natural’ emotions to us as human beings; they’re what we’ve been taught and conditioned into
We each have our own ‘inner Gollum’ who helps us actively engage in these shame habits by beating ourselves up - yet we would never dream of speaking to others in this way, and our innate self wouldn’t think like that
We didn’t do it to ourselves; shame was usually done to us, but as *soon* as we become ‘aware’ of that, we can no longer say that because we are beginning to do it to ourselves - and now, we have a new choice
The deconstruction of these ‘unnatural’ emotions requires us to become curious and open to more awareness.  From there, we can choose to grow into adulthood and begin to take radical care of ourselves - from the inside - most often we have an “adolescent mind-frame” (because we’ve learned to, innocently) - as we grow in awareness we can begin to say “no, thank you”
As aspiring ‘healers’ - real healers - it is so important that we embody healing shame and embody what we are teaching for ourselves first (or be in the practice of) - we need to feel absolutely 100% in our own bodies with lived experience of being grounded in that role.
