We are living through the Great Transition and the collapse of social and economic systems and with that we come face to face with our existential sense of failure and shame in not being able to adequately function in this current dying system. We need to understand that this is part of our human process of waking up through a radical systemic shift. The inner revolution within our hearts and our minds is the place we begin, even as we must face losing jobs, not having enough money to pay our bills, and having crazy debts that surround us on all sides. When the corruption of our existing social, economic and political systems is systemic, where does that leave us? Let’s understand the territory, create some new maps for the world ahead of us, and understand within our bones and our bodies that we truly are the seeds of a new culture. A renaissance is upon us and it’s coming through us as we heal, as we share our hearts and honestly open up the vulnerable places within our lives to each other. We are all on this great spaceship Earth together. This is a deep place to explore and we have a perfect guide for this episode of Heart of It All.

Moving into the New Paradigm from Shame to Hope with Joe Brewer

The desire to connect and become a greater whole is part of human nature. In our bodies we are 100 trillion cells all operating together in an amazing miraculous living wholeness. And now we see how our world is gathering around our shared dreams for a future, around our deep common values and the embodied knowing that, as Martin Luther King, Jr., said so well “"We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny." So there is a growing living systems awareness that we are not separate, that we are connected; that we don’t have to compete, we can collaborate; and that we can celebrate our diversity even while discovering we can align and hold powerful shared intentions. WE need this now on Earth more than ever and this is an evolutionary moment where we choose a new operating system together. My guest today to explore what this “Movement of Movements” really means is a powerful and beautiful woman who understands these dynamics from the inside out.

Living Systems Movement Building with Rivera Sun

Everyone wants to feel good, we want to be in our optimal health and have vitality, energy and a natural joie de vivre. This is believe it or not our natural state, but for many reasons and factors of modern society, we are not. We live in a very toxic world where we are surrounded by chemicals from our environment, and most importantly for this show, where we are actually eating toxic substances that are doing harm to our bodies. This comes in through the kinds of food we eat and what the impact is on our inner body ecology. Today we want to talk about a clear path toward optimal physical emotional spiritual health and a very powerful way to get there. This can be everyone’s reality. This is about ultimately transforming our lives from the inside out. This is definitely an inside out job. We want to go into the root, into the cause and not just address the symptoms. Right now there is a health epidemic that is largely unseen and not being fully addressed and it’s having a huge impact on our health. This is about Candida overgrowth. My guest today, Patty Yuniverse has become a voice for how to heal our bodies back to optimal health and reclaim our health sovereignty. This is not just a conversation talking about, but I have personally been on this journey healing myself of Candida and feeling the transformation that is possible. I have Patty to thank for this. This is important for everyone! Find out more about Patty and her gifts and offerings and the work of Candida Cleanser here: www.pattyyuniverse.com and www.candidacleanser.com
