E40 From Non-Duality to Feminine Embodiment with Cynthia Abulafia

What happens when spirituality no longer asks us to transcend the body, but to fully inhabit it? In this episode, Asherah is joined by author, yoga therapist, and devoted teacher Cynthia Abulafia for a rich conversation on feminine embodiment, Goddess traditions, and the integration of body and spirit. Inspired by Cynthia’s new book Embodying the Goddess, they explore the limitations of transcendence-based spirituality and the return to a path that honors the sacredness of embodied life. Together, they journey through non-duality, Kundalini awakenings, the wisdom of the heart, and the importance of grounding spiritual experiences in the human experience. They also reflect on the historical significance of the Goddess and what it means to walk a path of reverence, curiosity, and wholeness in modern times. This episode is an invitation to embrace both the mystical and the earthly, and to remember that awakening does not require leaving the body behind. ✨ Key Highlights * From transcendence to embodied spirituality * Reclaiming the wisdom of the Goddess traditions * Non-duality, Kundalini, and grounded awakening * The layers of the heart and sacred embodiment * Curiosity and reverence as spiritual practice Connect with Cynthia AbulafiaInstagram: @embodyingthegoddess [https://www.instagram.com/embodyingthegoddessbook/]bookGet the book [https://l.instagram.com/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.goodreads.com%2Fbook%2Fshow%2F223593686-embodying-the-goddess%3Ffrom_search%3Dtrue%26from_srp%3Dtrue%26utm_source%3Dig%26utm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_content%3Dlink_in_bio%26fbclid%3DPAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQPOTM2NjE5NzQzMzkyNDU5AAGnGsLy_V0-Oe7zE_HElS3FOAmRxld_BBK55J9Ah6C4UiUcK-VttHXQNKDaDmk_aem_zcFEKSLefsQ06uc67V_LiQ&e=AUAtGkru8siEHJTgYw7bGVJa_1s2LwjNsmAdURrVekXpiCcrU7EQaNXN26rwU0O1Uz5z2H6uQ-86D7tlmSdOjQSrr2kOg23vGcEtIAcwhx_aWXP-VCCUhVu_wY7RYulqDasp4-xb0AgK] This is a public episode.

E36 The Return of the Eros Priestess Lineages

There was a time when a woman’s erotic power was revered, not suppressed.
