Mar 08: Heal Your Heart & Soul with Rebecca Wildbear

March 8, 2023

Wild Yoga: A Practice of Initiation, Veneration & Advocacy for the Earth

Wild Yoga with author Rebecca Wildbear

Rebecca Wildbear describers herself as an earth-centred writer and soul guide. She writes, “When we are in our bodies, at one with nature, we are in touch with intelligence more significant than our minds. Nature can inspire our movements, align us with our instincts, initiate us into living our soul’s purpose, and guide us in tending the well-being of all life.”

Rebecca shares what she believes differentiates the soul from the spirit. We talk about the importance of stillness, of listening to trees, of sitting with the earth, of allowing. And how to flow in the river of your heart waters.

About Rebecca Wildbear

Rebecca Wildbear is the author of Wild Yoga: A Practice of Initiation, Veneration & Advocacy for the Earth and has guided Wild Yoga programs since 2007. She worked as a yoga teacher trainer at Nosara Yoga Institute for many years and now guides nature and soul programs through Animas Valley Institute.

Nov 30: Topher Brophy with Dog Dad

November 30, 2022

When you rescue an animal, who rescues who?

Life changed for Topher Brophy when he adopted his four-legged, look-alike  ‘love battery’ – aka Rosenberg.  One thing led to another, and today Brophy and Rosenberg have almost a quarter of a million followers on Instagram.

Awaken Your Natural Leadership & Become a Human Whisperer

Part guidebook, part manifesto, part wakeup call, Beth Anstandig wrote The Human Herd during what she calls The Great Pause — aka COVID lockdown — when so many people around the world felt isolated and disconnected.

Even in today’s techno world where we are constantly connected to our devices, and self-sufficiency is the norm, people still want and need human connection.  As a species, we’ve lived in herds for centuries, and need the support and connection of others to thrive. Today we discuss the 4 channels of awareness. How to look beyond project scope, and consider life scope. What horses can teach us about radical selfcare, anxiety, and giving and receiving feedback.

Move! by the author of My Plastic Brain
