Episode 5: What is God?

Tuesday Sep 17, 2024

Tuesday Sep 17, 2024

Welcome back to episode five of the Naked Soul podcast! Today we are going to be touching on a subject that we've gotten a few questions about, which is really what is God when we are referring to God in some of these episodes. 
Shawna shares her personal journey of understanding the term 'God,' recounting how she initially struggled with it due to a lack of exposure and understanding of the concept in childhood. She talks about her transformative experiences with meditation, spiritual books, specific healing practices and the profound impact of her brother's passing, which led her to form a personal relationship with God.
Laurie joins the conversation, sharing her perspective on God from her Roman Catholic upbringing to exploring other belief systems like Hinduism and Buddhism. She discusses how her understanding evolved to see God not as a judgmental figure but as an all-encompassing energy of love and intelligence.
The episode also explores concepts such as co-creation, manifestation, and the idea that we all possess divine intelligence within us. Both hosts share practical ways to start exploring a relationship with God, whether through Abraham Hicks' teachings, co-creative practices, or spiritual practices, which they describe.
We hope you enjoy!

Welcome to Episode 4 of the Naked Soul podcast! In this episode, we dive deep into the concept of the ego mind, often associated with fear-based thinking. If you struggle with negative thoughts, stress, overwhelm, or feelings of inadequacy, this episode is for you.
We begin by defining the ego mind, exploring its origins and discussing how the ego mind functions as a counterpart to our soul, bringing forward challenges and non-loving emotions that our soul is meant to overcome for growth. We discuss the importance of the ego in our physical existence and how it shapes our sense of identity but also the problems we can encounter when we live from and associate ourselves with the ego mind too strongly. 
Through candid conversations, we share insights on shifting from ego-based thinking to a more soul-centered approach. Learn practical techniques to quiet the ego mind, recognize limiting beliefs, and tune into the intuitive messages of your soul to help you live a more aligned, peaceful and empowered life and to better follow the path that is authentic to you.
We hope you enjoy!
