Zoë Wild learned to meditate in the East, in Burma, where she was a Buddhist nun and lived in a monastery for nearly two years. When she gave up being a nun and returned to the west she was shocked to see how differently meditation was taught here. Instead of finding the peace and tranquility they were seeking, Zoe found that many people were struggling. Western meditation, she says, was causing people to move away from their lives, to reject their experience, to feel superior to others who couldn’t do it “properly” or didn’t adopt a certain lifestyle. People were spending more time reading, writing and talking about meditation than actually practicing it.

Her solution: a practical, fun course called Wild Meditation, which liberates meditation from the confines of the cushion, and uses playful exploration in the midst of daily life activities to help you discover the peace and wisdom that lives within you no matter what you are doing. Wild Meditation allows you to rest in your center as you express your unique, quirky, authentic self and open to the full range of experience life has to offer.

Zoë Wild joins Sandie Sedgbeer this week to discuss:

~ Why she made the transition from Buddhist nun to life coach, meditation teacher, activist, writer, and workshop presenter.

~ How meditation underpins the tireless work she does presenting trauma healing workshops, establishing women’s centers, funding students in Turkey, and working towards creating a world where every single person knows their essential, liberated nature and humanity lives in global unity.

~ How you can awaken your life in just four weeks with meditation.

~ And more…

In a time where sex education is overshadowed by denial, pornography becomes the dominant script for gender roles and sexual relating. The Sexual Revolution came and went, leaving in it’s path, an emboldened sexual force with no model of how to harness and focus this energy to serve it’s divine purpose: creation!

We live at the precipice of a deterioration or enlightenment of sexual (un)consciousness.

The Renaissance was a breaking free of old thought paradigms, with new ways of thinking and creating. It served as a bridge between the Middle Ages and the Age of Discovery, a transition period that was a catalyst for profound social and spiritual revolution. As we step into tomorrow, each one of us plays a role through our actions, words, and ultimately our consciousness. How and what we think and feel about sexuality dictates, how and what we think and feel about ourselves, and hence the world we find ourselves in.

The Sexual Renaissance is about creating a new script around sex, love and relating. It welcomes the rise of the Sacred Feminine, acknowledges and supports the New Awakening Masculine, and remembers the natural flow of love. Each one of us is here to radiate our song in the world, serving something bigger than our individual story, the collective call to remember the “Sacred”.

Join Frank Mondeose for a discussion on the emerging traits of the Sexual Renaissance and how we can choose to harmonize our songs.

Have you ever found yourself checking your smartphone while driving your car … even though you know it’s dangerous?

Does your text alert chime make you interrupt a conversation with a person sitting right in front of you?

Even lifelong meditators and people who have never suffered from addiction issues now find themselves caught in the compulsive habit of continuously connecting with today’s technology. So why is that? Perhaps the compulsion to constantly check our devices is connected to something found within the our primal instinct.

Join Sylvia and her guest Nancy Colier, author of The Power Of Off: The Mindful Way To Stay Sane In A Virtual World, and learn how you can develop a healthier relationship with today’s digital technology.

The bible refers to money as “the root of all evil”. Jackson Brown’s “The Pretender” lyric described life as being “Caught between the longing for love and the struggle for the legal tender.” Why do we spend so much time worrying about money—working long hours to make ends meet while denying ourselves and our loved ones of quality time and happiness.

My guest this week, Leanne Jacobs, says that the sad truth is that no matter how many zeros our paycheck contains, most of us are not only financially broke but spiritually and emotionally broke. But in her new book, Beautiful Money, The Four Week Total Wealth Makeover, she guides readers to tidy up and cleanse their personal finances by taking a holistic approach, creating prosperity financially, physically, emotionally and spiritually.
