Gabriella White Classic Acoustics Medley feat. Alberto Garcia on Guitar ~ Tokyo ~ August 2021

In this active episode of The Culture Cave Conversation III Series, join Yoga & Meditation Teacher Valentina Anikeeva as she guides Gabriella White through a moving practice of Himalayan Kriya Yoga. Suitable for beginners.

- Allow yourself to be free in this practice; free to express all primal emotions without repression. This is key to the emotion release (ie. Energy in MOTION) 

More about the practice: 

Himalayan Kriya Yoga is energy yoga, working on the energy body, purifying and widening the energy channels; therefore it is said to work faster than any other kind yoga: it has a great impact on both - our physical body and our mental state. This is a very intense practice and here are some advice on how to prepare to it:
- It is better not to eat at least 1 hour before the session and the food should be easily digestible 
- Make sure you do not have any respiratory disease and you can breath fully, as kriya practice includes breathwork
- You just need a yoga mat, some space around you and comfortable clothes

The full video version including the visual demo for this practice can be accessed here: https://youtu.be/ymygYzHqx9s

Gabriella White MCIJ connects with Shamisen Master-in-the-making, Okinawan-born musician Kenyu Kanemura. In this episode, brought to you from Chatan, Okinawa, he tells his story of how a terrible accident led to him miraculously being able to pick up and play the shamisen much easier than before his accident, an instrument which he was previously unable to play. Paralysed from the waist down, the shamisen brought him a new lease of life, hope and paved a new path to healing, even carving a new way to mastery, a path on which he finds himself today. Gabriella and Kenyu have since formed a duet, namely Angel Light, part of the Gabriella White World Acoustics global project, a music initiative on which Gabriella is connecting on tour with musicians from around the world.

Podcast No. 9 - The Complete British Accent Podcast

Join me, Gabriella White from the chambers of the Red Pyramid of Dahshur with Egyptian tour guide Mohamed Wageh as we discuss the construction of this world wonder.
Mohamed Wageh Abo El Dahab’s family have toured the world’s movers and shakers and hosted The Culture Cave for this special series brought to you by travelling journalist and broadcaster Gabriella White.  

Significantly, the Red Pyramid was the first successful, true, cased Pyramid built in Egypt, ushering in the era of the Giza style pyramids. The pyramid gets its common name from the reddish limestone used to build most of its core, but it is also sometimes referred to as the Shining or Northern Pyramid. It is the largest of the three major pyramids located at the Dahshur necropolis in Cairo, Egypt. Worth noting is that the Red Pyramid was not always red. In actual fact, it used to be cased with white Tura limestone, but only a few of these stones now remain at the pyramid's base, at the corner. The red Pyramid is the tallest pyramid of the Dahshur necropolis and the third largest still standing today; only the Great Pyramid and Khafra’s pyramid both located at Giza are taller. This pyramid has more than 150 layers of stone.

In episode 3, we discuss:

*The Pyramid itself
* Pyramid engineering: The geniuses behind the constructions that stand strong today as a World Wonder
* The stone
* The ongoing mysteries surrounding the pyramid foundations
* Gaps in history
* The occupation of world artefacts (namely, Egypt’s treasures and showcasing them to the world)
* Interview with the local Muslim women of Egypt visiting the site (archaeologists)

GASSHO from KYOTO – The Heart of Reiki with Hyakuten Inamoto & Gabriella White MCIJ

“I'm here, You're here This is a very significant meeting” – the words of the great Reiki Master Teacher and Spritual Monk Hyakuten Inamoto here in KYOTO. This podcast is all about the heart of REIKI, which originated right here in the Mountains central Honshu, Japan. Kyoto, the heart of Japanese tradition is also home to the heart of Reiki and serves as the origin of this increasingly popular practice the world-over. The hands-on healing technique is known to give great peace, healing and deep relaxation. It is an energy flow. As the legend goes and Masters from the originl reiki lineage tell me, Usui Mikao Sensei (1865-1926), the founder of Reiki Ryoho (the healing art of Reiki), attained spiritual enlightenment, and at the same time, a healing ability as a Godsend was bestowed upon him in 1922 at the age of 57 while he was fasting and meditating for an extended period of time on Mount Kurama in Kyoto, the ancient capital city of Japan. Reiki healing art is to channel the energy of the universe and an inspired healing art founded by Usui Sensei.
Reiki is a Japanese term.靈氣-霊気-レイキ-REIKI
【霊】<Rei> means something mysterious, miraculous, and sacred.
【気】<ki> means the atmosphere or something unseen or the energy of the universe.
The Japanese words “霊気(Reiki）” can be defined as a miraculous and sacred energy of the Universe which sustains all life. (Reiki is a name,used by Usui Sensei,for the cosmic energy. The word "REIKI" is a common noun in the Japanese language.) This cosmic energy is referred to in a variety of names by people in many a country from ancient times. It is called "Chi "in China , "Ki "in Japan , "Prana" in India and "Mana " in Hawaii. These concepts are in fact intertwined and serve as the essential energy for all beings to live healthy and happy lives.

Komyo Reikido is:
*** a gateway to spiritual awakening and growth.
*** a keep-it-simple Reiki system and practice. It is based on Japanese aesthetics "Less is More".
*** The practice motto is "Place your hands, Surrender, and Smile". There is no room for other things. Reiki is all we need.
*** The teaching method is basically by word of mouth.

In this podcast, we discuss:
National Treasures around Kyoto – The Temples of Ohara
Japan’s seasons
The energy of the heaven and the Earth 
Reiki energy
The Universe
Inamoto Sensei’s ordainment 
Priest Life
