Hey Heal Squad! In today's All-Star episode, we explore the power of self-acceptance, intuition, and astrology with our three remarkable guests: Debra Silverman, Jessica Lanyadoo, and Lisa Donovan. Get ready to uncover the wisdom and lessons they share as we explore different aspects of personal growth and understanding through astrology. Debra Silverman: Embrace your unique elemental balance in astrology to find harmony and fulfillment in life. Learn to observe and navigate the workings of your mind to harness its power effectively. Confront your unconscious shadows to transform and overcome self-limiting beliefs. Discover your life's purpose through your North Node and strive to live it authentically. Embrace astrological cycles and energies for personal growth, but remember that astrology complements, not dictates, your journey. Jessica Lanyadoo: Embrace your true nature and accept your strengths and weaknesses. Distinguish between your intuition, which is neutral, and anxiety, which is fear-driven. Practice sitting with discomfort and emotions without trying to fix them. Develop self-awareness through observing your feelings and experiences. Use dream journaling to tap into your subconscious and uncover hidden insights. Lisa Donovan: Use Astrology to feel seen, understood, and connected by providing insightful content and guidance. Use the Moon, Venus, Mars, and Ascendant placements, rather than just the Sun sign, aiming to provide a deeper and more accurate reflection of an individual's personality and relationships. Understand yourself better, embrace your authenticity, and surrender to your true path for a more fulfilling life. Cultivate self-awareness, communicate openly in relationships, and make conscious choices to shift your experiences. Be magnetic for positive experiences and connections in your life.
