Death is not a Four-Letter Word!

Encore: Navigating Life From a Place of Peace, Presence, and Passion

What if you could remain calm in the face of chaos so that no matter what life throws at you, your state of mind is unaffected? What would it take to get to that place?  In this episode, Anahata talks with her special guest Jesica Henderson about ways to navigate life as it comes at you, and reactivating your compass of inner joy to discover a true path for personal growth and prosperity.  As always, crystals and stones have a role to play.

All the Crystals All the Time

A podcast called The Crystal Coach Show wouldn't be legit without some episodes about Crystals and Stones!  In this one, you'll hear our guest Ryan Gorman talk with Anahata about his travels and experiences with the mineral kingdom.  Ryan is a free spirit with remembered lives in Lemuria, who in this lifetime wears many hats as an artist,  crystal collector, rock hound, gemstone prospector, rock climber and community builder.   Listen in as two crystal enthusiasts geek out on the subject of collecting stones, creating community, and working with the energies of the Earth's minerals. Guaranteed to be fun and educational!

Death is not a Four-Letter Word!

Why are we so uncomfortable talking about death, which is the completion of a soul’s cycle on Earth?  We plan, prepare for and celebrate birth, yet the time of transition back into Light is rarely spoken about, let alone for which we prepare.  In this episode, Anahata talks with Diane Cogorno, a counselor, bereavement specialist, and licensed social worker with more than 40 years’ experience; 20+ years within the hospice setting.  Together, Diane and Anahata will explore and share stories of the sacredness and beauty of end-of-life transitions, which have allowed those left behind to feel their loved one completed their journey with Grace, Ease and lasting Joy.  This includes education and awareness of the process, rituals, music, art and ceremony to celebrate a soul’s homecoming.  There are many new ways to approach this way of thinking, from home deaths to green burial; from death doulas who teach, advise and help plan, to new, more inclusive approaches to hospice care. If you are grieving the loss of a loved one’s physical presence, this episode is for you.  If you or someone you know or love are on a medical journey with a terminal prognosis, this episode is for you.  If you have been curious about the  choices available for how the body is treated after the soul leaves, this episode is for you. If you are looking for reassurance that the soul is eternal, there will be plenty of inspiring evidence.  Tune in, and receive what you can.

Encore: Spirituality and Social Activism

It's a scene from a movie...a young man gets into his car to run an errand and ends up on tribal land some 700 plus miles across two states, driving first on interstate, then state highway, then county road, then gravel road, and finally walking several miles to come upon a ceremonial building where an elder sits by the door.  As he gets closer, the man looks up and says simply, "You're late."  The young man then stays for three months studying shamanism with this elder.   This is just one of the many synchronicities my guest, Chaplain Thomas Stratman, experienced from early childhood through high school.  We're talking spirituality on this episode, but not the out-of-body kind.  This episode is about how spirituality and social activism can find a meeting point for service.   Chaplain Thomas is now a learned, wise elder himself, but his work has benefited decades of the unhoused, incarcerated or hospitalized people along his path. Join us and prepare to have your perceptions challenged.
