Science & Magic with Amanda

Rewiring the brain can be uncomfortable, quantum leaping might be unnerving, and shifting behaviors may take some discipline.  So, dear butterfly,  let things be easy - but don't be afraid of a little friction.  When you push through life, you are embracing your masculine energy, which can be powerful medicine to your feminine essence!  There are certain milestones that require a bit of grit,...

When life moves through you and expands reality, it can feel uncomfortable (especially if the nervous system feels unsafe).  However, the feminine way is to surrender to discomfort, not fight against it.  Let it easy by leaning into what feels difficult.  When life moves through you, ALLOW Spirit to chisel away at your fixed identity.  Embrace the growing pains that are inevitable with evolution. ...

I want to be very clear that aging is not a bad thing - in fact, I think it's an honor!  However, there is a way to grow older and accumulate vitality, harmony, and ease in the body instead of inflammation, exhaustion, and pain.  Your triggers are aging you into patterns of restriction and fatigue, rather than light and beauty (your natural essence as a feminine being).  I am going to share a...

Light Feminine Energy and Feminine Lightness are two separate concepts - Feminine Lightness results from keeping an open and unburdened energetic/emotional field.   If you want to know how to lighten your feminine energy and stop being so heavy, it starts with feeling emotions in the body as they arise (rather than letting them accumulate).  The accumulation of burdens, traumas, resentments, bitte...

The mainstream messaging of manifestation is to create a positive inner dialogue, and the external world will respond accordingly.  There is truth to this!  However, when we ignore unpleasant emotions, sensations, and stored trauma in the body, they will just grow louder and louder in our subconscious until they are attended to.  The good news is that you CAN manifest through your shadows.  They c...

First of all, stress isn't inherently bad -  in fact, it unleashes an incredible amount of energy to effectively meet threats!   However, when experienced in large doses, stress works against feminine energy.  Feminine energy, in essence, is overflow, radiance, and softness.  When our stress response is overly activated, our precious energy reserves are depleted and we become exhausted, rigid...

Tonny reached out to me because he was feeling stuck, heavy, and lethargic.  He knew that something in his life needed to change, but he wasn't sure what it was or how to even go about it.  After just a few weeks of learning about and soothing his nervous system, Tonny felt a huge weight lift in his body.  He went from feeling like his 'heavy heart was glued to his bed' to feeling &...

This video is for feminine beings, HD projectors, and entrepreneurs who are navigating how to spend their time and energy in work, relationships, and life in general.  Key words - your energy is expensive!   As HD Projectors, we don't have a lot of it to put towards things that take effort.  As feminine beings - it's all about our juicy presence, which takes a lot of input to maintain. ...

To embody the feminine melt, you must actually show up into your body and PRACTICE softness.  Stretch.  Breathe.  Let go of tension... literally.  Enough of the learning!  Enough of the youtube binging!  It's actually time to implement it, my love.  When we are able to feel the feminine melt in our muscles, bones, and tissue, the masculine can then rise up to support us.  If there is nothing...

I had one of my amazing clients on the show to talk about her transformational journey from a daily life of monotony to inside-out alignment.  Stuck in the mental stagnation of a 9 to 5 job that wasn’t bringing her spirit alive, Danielle felt bored, uninspired, drained, and not sure what to do about it.  She was easily irritated, stuck in her head, and trapped in the same daily routine.  She knew...

As I'm nearing the end of my  pregnancy, I find myself in reflection of the deep, transformational journey I've experienced throughout the past 9 months.  In this episode, I talk about the perspective of manifestation from  feminine energy components like softening, yielding, surrendering, glowing, & flowing.   This is an intimate and soft episode, and will perhaps offer a healing ba...

When Lucy & I started working together six months ago, she was a self identified workaholic.  Her sense of worth was determined by the external success of her business and she sacrificed her mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing to force the results she wanted.   She embodied the essence of a helicopter parent - she was smothering the natural growth of her business with her obsessive thoug...

Surrender means letting go, yielding and giving up control.  It is the opposite embodiment of activating, leading, strategizing, and pushing through.  For many of us (especially high achievers), surrender can feel incredibly uncomfortable.  In addition to going against the societal value of 'taking charge of our own lives,' loosening our grip on our careers, desires, and plans can be thr...
