Ep. 178 - Words are Powerful: Healing Poetry - The MultiDimensional MD

Words are powerful—how we say them, what we feel when we say them, and what are purpose and intention are to say them.Words have the power to lift up or tear down.Similarly, your own voice can be used to improve or worsen your health. The cells of your body are always listening to you. They love you and they love the vibration of your essence. In fact, the cells in your body will respond to you. In today's livestream, I'm going to read through some healing poetry so that you can hear and feel the vibration of the words as I read them.The first poem that I wrote is the opening poem to my new book I AM Intuitive—A MultiDimensional Guide to Embrace Your Inner Light. I've never read it out loud in public before. It's such a treat for me to be able to share it with you. The book will be released sometime this spring! Getting closer and closer, everyday!Most of the poems I'm reading are my creation. So, there's a bit of vulnerability there. I'm not a trained and practiced poet. I'm sharing with you though, so that you might have courage to share more of your light and love. The world so needs that now.

Ep. 177 - How to Set Your Compass to do Hard Things with Ease

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!I've heard from many of you in 2024 and it seems like it has been quite a year already. There have been many shifts, plus facing new challenges as we resolve old ones. How do we rise up to face difficulties with more ease? And how do we do that over and over again? Because you’re nver one and done. It’s like a video game, once you pass one level, there always seems to be another. Those ups and downs are part of the nature of life, like the seasons. This is a topic I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about, looking at it from many angles. I thought about it hard when my dad passed. If I died would I have regrets? What would I like to do in my life now? It was to be true to myself, to love more and express that more. I didn’t know what the future held. No one did. It was pandemic and so many people were transitioning. And everyone was otherwise stuck at home. The truth is we never know what the future holds. So, I’ve cultivated a practice that I use for myself in order to do hard things with more ease. And I’d like to share that with you in this podcast.0:00Introduction4:25Purpose and feeling8:58Understanding Time and Taking Steps13:42Inspiration from Kids15:08Lao Tzu

Ep. 174 - Olfaction, Emotions, and Intuitive Smell with Dr. Jim Gaydos - on The MultiDimensional MD

Hi everyone!Each week, I'll meditate on a topic to talk about, and today I thought we would discuss olfaction and how it relates to emotions and intuition. We don't always realize how important our sense of smell is until it is affected by a virus like COVID-19 or a physical injury. You can also use your sense of smell to learn about your emotions and possibly stuck stress or trauma patterns. Joining me in this podcast is my friend and colleague Dr. Jim Gaydos, who is an osteopath and co-teaches courses with me. He has an intuitive knack for smell and he'll share some of his stories with us as well.Join us for this podcast if you or someone you love has experienced- anosmia or altered sense of smell- food addictions- stress or anxiety- memory issuesor are highly sensitive or are interested in intuitive development.0:00Introduction1:33Smell is a Primal Sense3:09Olfaction and Emotions8:48Olfaction Taste and Your Relationship to Food14:01Intuitive Smell
