[00:00:00] Shilpa: Welcome, Amanda. Oh, I'm so happy to be here. Thank you so much for inviting me. I'm so happy to be here. I'm so happy to have you a shout out to my friend Carol, who suggested that you would be a great fit. And the moment I heard on Facebook your voice, I'm like, oh my gosh, I had chills, like such an angelic, beautiful voice.
[00:00:28] Shilpa: Thank you so much for saying that. And uh, as, as we were both chatting, like so much love to Carol, she's, she's just amazing. Amazing. I love her. I love her too. Well, it's always interesting how two people can meet and I always enjoyed when there's already a connection there. 'cause that means there's some energetic connection there as well.
[00:00:50] Shilpa: So, on the topic of energy, I thought it would be great to connect with me. To cover different aspects of energy. But [00:01:00] before we dive in, I would love for you to share your journey on how you arrived in this space. Um, 'cause I've been following your work and I just love to know the backstory. I know, and you know, I, I wish it, honestly, in all honesty, I had it like shaped a little better really, because I will try and condense and explain some parts that I think are important.
[00:01:25] Amanda: Um, so I'm born and raised in Ireland, and you know, we all come in connected. We're all connected to the divine always, but especially when we're born, right? Where you always look at babies and they're looking up and they're seeing the angels, they're feeling the energy. Even like, you know, we were chatting about a Feng shui perspective.
[00:01:44] Amanda: They'll move their way around their bed, their crib, whatever they're seeping in to align themselves, you know, with. The best direction. However, the stars and the everything is positioned right, uh, and it's amazing. So we all come in this way. But the [00:02:00] reason why I say that is I, I came in and, um, I spent my entire childhood in the ferry, Glens in the stone circles, in these ancient oak forests.
[00:02:10] Amanda: I, I had a horse and I just used to like, I literally didn't really want to be in the house. I used to sleep at a stable with the horse, and then before the sun will be up, or even the moon, we'd be galloping up the hills, up the mountains through the forest. And I always saw fairy beings, light beings, elementals.
[00:02:29] Amanda: And I thought everybody could see this. Like I really thought it was just the norm, seeing people's auras, their energy color. Like I thought that was, you know, everybody could see. Until later on I started to realize, wow, not everybody is seeing this. And I do believe that we all have the ability and the gift, but maybe if it's not supported, and some of us come in stronger in certain areas, like, you know, they say the people that don't have great physical eyesight in the human body, their, their gift of sight is better.
[00:02:59] Amanda: Or [00:03:00] if somebody's hearing isn't their, their clear audience is better. You know, it's really interesting. If there's a weakness in the body, there's a strength in the, in the feeling or sensing the energy. So, so I was raised that way and it's so funny because, you know, they, they always say, do something that you love, that you did when you were a little boy or a little girl.
[00:03:20] Amanda: But that's all I ever did. I was kind of. Out in these sacred sites. I was connecting with the fairy realm. And then my parents used to honestly just set up it kind of funny, a camera in our back field, and I would talk to camera hours. So nothing's changed. Nothing has changed. I'm still doing what I was doing.
[00:03:41] Amanda: Always. Like, you know, I giggle when I hear about that. I'm like, yeah, I still set up a camera and I'm in the backyard and I'm off the sacred sites. I'm still seeing everything. But there's a whole story in between that. Right? So, and I, I like, I've, I've honestly had so many experiences in my life that have brought me dear, [00:04:00] deeper on my spiritual path, deeper on my spiritual, that it brought me home to myself.
[00:04:03] Amanda: I feel like I've had so many lifetimes within this lifetime. I've had a lot of trauma in my life, but I've always gone deep into the healing of it and it's opened me up on, on such bigger energies. Um. And I know everybody has had experiences in their life, but I, I think it's always like a catalyst and it, it supports this rebirth.
[00:04:28] Amanda: Now, one thing I also want to clarify is we don't need to have traumatic experiences to open up our spiritual gifts or just step into the, you know, the next layer of who we are. Right? Or to unravel parts. We don't have to. But that, some of that has been my journey throughout and I don't, I don't need to go into everything that I've experienced.
[00:04:51] Amanda: Um, but I would say then I've always been very connected. I got into feng shui. If I was dragged to stay sleep in my bedroom right [00:05:00] outta staples to come inside, I don't wanna bring the flowers in. I don't wanna bring the plugs in. I don't wanna bring the crystals in the rocks. And I dragged my mom mad 'cause I was always moving the bed around and move all the furniture.
[00:05:11] Amanda: You know, it was like a natural thing. And then when I, I was born and raised in, in Ireland, I moved to America. And when everyone used to come into my home, they're like, oh, did you have a feng shui? And I was like, fun. What? Right. And this was like 25 years ago, and after about the 10th person said to me, I was like, let go find out what this feng shui stuff was all about now.
[00:05:29] Amanda: There was no internet back then. So I went to the library, read it out every book they had at feng shui and just every hair on my body stood in. And there was this deep remembrance that I had this deep remem. So I, I can tap into a lot of my past lives. I've been a priestess in many of my past lives, but I was also a feng shui.
[00:05:50] Amanda: Um, well, something that was blocking the feng shui. And, uh, again, I'd love to go deeper that there's so many aspects of the story. [00:06:00] Um, but so part of my dharma of this lifetime is a commitment to waking feng shui back up in the western world. You know, basically that, that's part of a sole agreement that I've made.
[00:06:13] Amanda: 'cause a couple times I've veered away from it. And spirit is like, uh, you have a commitment in this. You have a commitment. So, so that is kind of with it feng shui. But as far as the, the energy work, I, I, I feel like the awakening now from our third dimension into the fifth dimension is, is hopping at a sp a sped place.
[00:06:35] Amanda: 'cause I, I, I'm constantly coaching and training people and teaching people and needing retreats, and people are having these awakenings that weren't even on a spiritual path. Like their light language comes in, there's, they open up, they've kundalini awakenings, like people that weren't even on a spiritual path, which I'm finding is really, really amazing.
[00:06:54] Amanda: And I think for me personally, I wake up every day feeling a little bit different than the day [00:07:00] before, like, you know, just a little bit more. And I'm not saying I'm better than I was yesterday, but I definitely am on, you know, some of us are on a, a very clear path of working through stuff, self-realization, our spiritual practices, deepening, widening, expanding a certain, you know, the, the down through the body though.
[00:07:22] Amanda: But some of us are very much so on that journey. So I'm very committed to my spiritual path and my spiritual path shows up in always my spiritual path. Shows up as a mother for my two children. My spiritual path shows up as a partner, right? My spiritual, uh, path as a daughter, as, as a lightworker, as somebody who leads people, right?
[00:07:44] Amanda: So I. I always want to be on this path and unearthing, and uncovering and stepping even more into my authentic self, my gifts, and I'm committed to that, you know, that way. And it's not in a, oh my gosh, I'm stuck to these [00:08:00] practices. I'm very fluid, I listen. I'm, you know, in that way nothing's forced or rigid, but I am very committed to the path.
[00:08:08] Amanda: So as far though as my, um, over the last five years, six years, I've had major, major awakenings that have opened up a lot more of my gifts. Um, I had a, an extremely intense kundalini awakening, if that's what you would call it, but literally, um, for about two years, every morning I wake up at three or four in the morning, and my whole body, it started off at the root, and then it just kept opening and opening.
[00:08:35] Amanda: It's like, it was like, you know, like a kundalini, these serpents moving up my spine. And like, sometimes it would feel like my whole skull was good. Implode because of the intensity of the awakening. So then my light language came in and just a lot more gets started opening up. So the good thing is though, over the last few years, that has settled a lot in my system.
[00:08:57] Amanda: 'cause that was a lot, having that kind of [00:09:00] energy pulsating through my body and now I've really, um, embodied and integrated it so it's flowing just as much, the gifts and the energy is flowing as much, but it's in a much more central space and place. So that was a lot, that was a lot. As I told you, that's only a little bit of the journey, but I wanted to share some kind of nuggets of it.
[00:09:24] Shilpa: Oh, I find it so fascinating. I can definitely go deeper into different facets of what you've just expressed. Um, yeah. So many. And I just to work maybe backwards, one of the things you mentioned was the light work. And I've had. A couple of guests who touched upon light work and would even break into, so to speak, um, uh, light work song and tapping into one woman, um, she would tap into what sounded like the culture of like Africa and [00:10:00] African, although she's white, and it would sound so melodic, almost like a maternal voice would come into her.
[00:10:08] Shilpa: So I, I want to go into that as it connects to the Kundalini awakening. And I, I'll go deeper as we, we unravel this, but I, I've always been fascinated with this, so please share. Absolutely. So more of what the Kundalini, um, and the whole activation experience process was like. Um, perhaps that as the catalyst, but then maybe, um, tying it back to your awakening of the light work, and also did you have that gift?
[00:10:42] Shilpa: Or that ability when you were younger, or did it arrive later? Yeah. You know, it's, it's always been there. All the work has always been there. And it doesn't matter whether in practicing feng shui or geo land healing or the actual ascension process, it, it, all, the gifts come through and [00:11:00] all the activations happen.
[00:11:01] Shilpa: It just, you know, it, it ultimately is a presence that we hold and an intention that we come in with. And we are never activating anybody else. They are activating their own blueprint. Right. But we can hold and facilitate space for that. Right. And, you know, so I've always had that energy, always had that gift.
[00:11:23] Shilpa: But I think it's understanding how to work with it more and how to understand it more and to kind of like harness it, I suppose, as well. Yeah.
[00:11:37] Shilpa: For, for those who are not aware. Perhaps of light work. How would you describe that? Hmm. Yeah, absolutely. Well, very much so. Now, my soul mission as well as being a mother and the other roles that I play in light, but is to really facilitate. And you, it's, it's [00:12:00] gets thrown around a lot now, but um, our new earth and new Earth is not a different destination.
[00:12:05] Shilpa: It's not somewhere different, right? Um, the third dimension, which people are still living in, and we can tell right by all that's going on in the world right now, is very much so. We can only see and touch thing, you know, what we can see and touch. And it's about com competition and you're over here and I'm there and how can we compete, right?
[00:12:27] Shilpa: And we're all separate. Um, so basically the fourth dimension is the gateway, where we go. There's some more than that, Ben. I feel like we're connected. We, you're my sister, we're, we're sisters and brothers. Like, we're all interconnected. So we start to realize that. So then this healing starts to happen, right?
[00:12:49] Shilpa: Because in order for us to really expand and open, we have to kind of, you know, if people are in pain, well, we cause pain. And when we're in our higher heart, we're in our heart and we're in [00:13:00] love, we create more love, we're in a peaceful place, we create more peace. So that fourth dimension is the gateway to kind of look at what needs to be healed from this lifetime.
[00:13:10] Shilpa: Like the inner childhood, childhood experiences, teenage, you know, anything from the moment before now, anything, trauma, anything. But that has also come through our ancestral line, the epigenetics, right? And, and that's scientifically proven. Now we carry on trauma from our ancestors, right? We carry on these energies.
[00:13:29] Shilpa: And then of course there's past life, right? So it's really looking at. Where these patterns, where am I stuck? What are the blocks? What are my beliefs? What are the old thought forms? What it keeps repeating and playing out in my life? And how can I heal this? How can I really go into my, my darkness? How can I go into the shadow and love and accept every single part of me?
[00:13:54] Shilpa: So I'm fully accepting myself? I'm fully integrated. Integrated and, [00:14:00] and feeling whole, right? So when we've done that, then we can move into the higher dimensions, we can move into the higher heart. And it doesn't mean we don't oscillate, right? As humans. 'cause what I really do believe is we are spirits having this human experience.
[00:14:14] Shilpa: And for many lifetimes, when I tap into my past lives as a priest, as it was always going up, right? It was always the ascension process was going up. But it's not about that anymore. It is about bringing in through the codes connected to our source of origin, but bringing it down and having a fully embodied human.
[00:14:32] Shilpa: Earthly experience, right? Because for a lot of slight workers, it's so easy to go into ethereal realm, leave our bodies and work, but, but that's always about more. That is not what is needed in the world. It is how can I fully inhabit this body? So if the body is full of trauma, then it's very hard to fully embody.
[00:14:51] Shilpa: 'cause you want to escape that, right? But how can I be fully in this body? And somatic practices is so, so powerful being in our body, [00:15:00] processing our emotions, emotion, energy, and motion, right? So we don't have to numb it, we don't have to push it down. We don't have to pick up addictions too numb that we can feel it and process.
[00:15:11] Shilpa: So it's having these beautiful tools. So this is what the fourth dimension is. It's healing that, but it's a daily practice, right? As a human having experience. Like there's a daily forgiveness practice, there's a daily compassionate compassion practice like that, that we need to embody and that then.
[00:15:28] Shilpa: Brings us into this higher part, right? And it allows us to stay in that even when stuff happens, which is inevitable. Full moon, new moon, we have a winter, we have a summer, right? So we have conscious expansion and we have conscious contraction as well. So it's like moving through, right? So being in that fifth dimension, and it, from what I see in my meditative state, or my dream state, or even my wake state, it goes all the way up.
[00:15:55] Shilpa: But it, it, it's, it's not like a straight line, right? There's fifth dimension, six [00:16:00] dimension, and I work a lot with galactic realms, which go into the upper dimensions, but it's not really like one's higher than the other. It's just there's these different, um, different planes of existence, basically.
[00:16:13] Shilpa: Different levels of dimension. Ultimately though, it's the divine mother, it's the mother arc, right? It's the mother arc. Um, and so it's a lot about being here, being present here, and. Ultimately to me, this new earth is heaven on earth. Well, what does that mean? It just means people have done the work so they aren't creating more greed and scarcity.
[00:16:37] Shilpa: 'cause the truth is there's infinite resources in the world. There's infinite resources. There's just a scarcity mindset. There's a, you know, that And, and then to make people competitive and separate people, it's always about divide and conquer, right? So, no, it's now, it's all about unity. How can we come together?
[00:16:53] Shilpa: How can we love each other? How can we honor each other? How can we respect each other? How can we want what's [00:17:00] in your highest good? 'cause? What's in your highest good is also me in the highest good of all, right? How can we live more of harmony with our old bodies, with each other, with the land, with the earth?
[00:17:09] Shilpa: And, and this is ultimate with the new Earth. That is isn't some magical new place. It is. It really is through the human experience doing that work. And elevating ourselves. So we are coming from a higher shark heart, if you look at a child, right? But baby, all they know is love and they know their self worth.
[00:17:27] Shilpa: They come in and it's like, I need food. Wow. Because I know my needs will be met. I want love. Wow. I'm gonna be vulnerable and be open and gonna be authentic, right? But there's things that happen from our childhood that takes us away from that true essence that allow start to make us feel we're not worthy, that we're not loved, that we're not good enough, that we're not deserving.
[00:17:48] Shilpa: And then the mass circle and the mask. So I've literally spent, you know, so I, I came in here really connected, but I had this whole window, especially in my teenage years, where like I, I didn't [00:18:00] have that connection. I went through a couple of years and I needed to go through that to, to know what it's like not to have that connection and to understand then the experience that we go through, if we carry on holding those frequencies of trauma, we're just gonna keep repeating it.
[00:18:15] Shilpa: So we might as well take the time to work through it. And clear it. And of course there's layers and there's layers to everything, but, but there's, there's a depth of going through the dark night of the soul to really rebirth ourselves. And then I think if we have our daily maintenance, whatever that looks like, for me, it's, it's meditation.
[00:18:36] Shilpa: I mean, I live so closely with the land. I grow my own vegetables. I'm very blessed to live in Ireland in the countryside across from a sacred mountain, sacred wells, up the road. A forest, ancient oak forest. Like, so I swim in the sea, I swim in the wells. I, I will sit in the wells, I swim in the rivers. Um, I sit out under the moon, I sit under the trees.
[00:18:57] Shilpa: I, I live really closely with the land. [00:19:00] I listen to my body. I take good care of myself. But it has been a journey to, to really listen and to connect with my soul and to have that connection. And now it's not like I go, okay, I get up and I have my spiritual practice my entire day is that. There's no separation.
[00:19:19] Shilpa: It's not like I sit on the yoga mat and meditate at my altar. That's my spiritual practice. No, our spiritual practice is in the day-to-day existence of just even preparing food. The beauty, the gratitude, the bounty, being present with our beloveds, having a shower, being out in the rain, being with nature, like everything for me now is a ritual.
[00:19:40] Shilpa: Everything is a sacred ceremony. Even if it's the mundane, what we'd look at as the mundane. Because if we bring that level of presence and we bring that level of heart, then, then there only is this richness of the presence. And believe me, I have days where, you know, I, I'm like, you know, I [00:20:00] wouldn't feel great, you know, but I have my tools where I can just definitely allow, accept, let it move on through, right.
[00:20:09] Shilpa: And then elevate again. So, um, I. Oh gosh, that was so beautifully articulated. Um, I deeply understand what you're saying, although words can't always express that understanding. One thing that comes to mind because it resonated with me deeply, is that when we feel contraction or pain as a human and go through that experience coming out on the other side, I had this realization, I just heard you say it as well, that perhaps it's so that we can then have the empathy and lens we to then help others.
[00:20:52] Shilpa: And I, I feel like your birth in this lifetime, [00:21:00] energetically, the space you're in has allowed you. To remain in that vibration. Even if you had gone through periods of the shadow life or the darkness, um, vibrationally, the mother set you up in that environment, that ecosystem, because one thing that you then said was, you know, past lives or maybe moments in this lifetime, you are able to ascend and feel that level of vibration where you want to remain because it's so beautiful.
[00:21:33] Shilpa: But then to come back in this life to embody it, I feel like a lot of us that are on this cusp of the new age have I, I don't know if you feel this way, maybe you can share in a moment felt struggle because you're like, gosh, it's, it does, it's so base, it's so raw. It's often so painful here and. And it doesn't feel right.
[00:21:58] Shilpa: And I've often wondered why, [00:22:00] why do I struggle? I don't, I don't see other people struggling. I'm the one that struggles. But I, I've come to this feeling, and I feel like you are saying it, is that maybe it's because we're here to embody it so we can then feel the compassion. Absolutely. Absolutely. And I do say to spirit, I got all the compassion I need now, and I know the feeling.
[00:22:22] Shilpa: I know. I'm like, gentle, gentle, gentle teachings, please. Like, I'm the same talk, I'm present, you know, have the same talk with the universe. I'm like, okay, okay. I get, I get it, but let's, let's just tone it down because I, otherwise I feel like I'm gonna burn out. Oh, I know, I know. And, and I think this is where our, our, our journey of, of self-care.
[00:22:45] Shilpa: And that took me a while. Like, it's like we remember and we awaken and then we forget. Like, um, and I found that when I had my children. My son will be 13, excuse me, my daughter's 10. And I remember, like, I, [00:23:00] I had to reawaken to, I can take care of myself, right? And it took a while to come back to that, you know, because you're, I you're in service in a, in a whole nother way and responsible for these beautiful little lives, you know?
[00:23:12] Shilpa: And so I've had to re-remember that and re step into that. And, and what I really do realize is, you know, when it comes to children, especially, they don't care what you say. They're just watching you and what you're modeling and the energy, the energy that you have. So I always know if they're a little bit of, I just look to myself, I'm like, okay, because they're little sponges.
[00:23:31] Shilpa: Do you know what I mean? And, and now I love seeing them like step into their, their beautiful sovereign selves and, you know, it's beautiful to witness. Um, and you know, if we really do live by that, everybody is kind of a mirror. That's a very, very powerful tool. And I really love that mirror exercise. Um, I think it can be very powerful on that.
[00:23:54] Shilpa: Path of self-realization. So they, you know, they say, pick somebody that you just admire and you love and [00:24:00] you, you know, you just, you not, not a sexual attraction, but you feel attraction. You admire them and then you wanna list what it is that you love about them. And then you kind of pick the top few things and then you pick somebody that actually rubs you the wrong way.
[00:24:13] Shilpa: Right. And that irritates you. And again, list what those things are in circle of three. And it's usually like, what are you denying within yourself and what are you ready to step into that you haven't quite stepped into? You know? And that's so powerful. 'cause when you can go, oh, those things have bugged me about that person is because I embody them and I haven't honored them.
[00:24:35] Shilpa: Or, you know, like, own them or this the things that you love. It's like. Like about that person's like, have you opened up that part of yourself? You know, because that's what the attraction is. There's a, there's a similar frequency and vibration that you see and that you honor, you know, so that's why I love that.
[00:24:52] Shilpa: It's, it's such a powerful tool of growth, right? Rather than projecting or blaming. We can see that as [00:25:00] such a powerful tool to evolve and grow, you know? So yeah, absolutely. I love the idea that, um, if we are all we are, and I do believe this, we are all energy, and then if each of us is a mirror, then time in again in life, I've seen that the very things that might be rubbing me the wrong way might be the very thing I need to work on, or maybe something I'm aware that I'm working on, but I'm done with it.
[00:25:33] Shilpa: Like, meaning, like I remember it when I was in corporate world. There was this. Ultra competitive individual, and I could see it a hundred miles away. I'm like, whoa. I, I, and I, I don't like this anymore. I've been there. It's, it's not an energy I want to sp live in, but then I, I also deeply resonate with it, the beauty of others.
[00:25:58] Shilpa: And each time I meet [00:26:00] someone, I'm like, I love her composure. I love her enthusiasm. I want to mimic that. I love that. That's beautiful. So you organically, naturally do that anyway. I love that. Yeah. Yeah. Um, I love how you were expressing a lot of this in terms of your own self-realization and evolution, not only as a mother, but in your own lifetime of growth.
[00:26:27] Shilpa: Whether it's through your daily practice and allowing yourself to get grounded again, or then stepping out of it and living life. Because sometimes that part, for me personally, is the hard part. Like then going, putting it out there, being among others. Um, but going back the cutting wood and carrying water, right?
[00:26:47] Shilpa: Yeah. That's what they call, yeah. These things be up in the mountains meditating, you know, but it's like come back into the real world, step into everything else that you're stepping to, and then how can you [00:27:00] maintain that vibration? How can you stay in that vibration and emanate that vibration? Yeah. Well, and that's interesting.
[00:27:06] Shilpa: You, you should have brought it back to the vibration because the daily practice, the, the mo morning and evening routine, it's almost like, and you've probably heard this metaphor, that they're like the, um, the book stands. Book ends and it allows us to stay grounded. It's, it's like setting the tone for the day through that early morning meditation and gratitude.
[00:27:34] Shilpa: Then you step out and that's where the test begins. And I, I like something that you said, 'cause I am work in progress when it's the art of practicing it, but to think of everything else in between those bookends as part of the rituals as well. So like, you know, I, I've heard someone say in, in the past, I would've rolled [00:28:00] my eyes, like even when you're washing your hands or sweeping the floor.
[00:28:04] Shilpa: But now I apply it to everything I do, whether I'm cooking or listening to someone that I love, share something that they've done. All of that is the art of connecting back to the universe. Absolutely. Absolutely. I love that. Thank you for sharing that. That's beautiful. Yeah. The divine flow of the universe.
[00:28:29] Shilpa: Absolutely. Now, something you said in the beginning, and it reminds me of something I've been learning about, have you connected with this concept of human design? I've, I've heard about it. Yes. Yes. Would you like to share more? Well, just, uh, one of the things that they've been expressing is that in 20, in, I think, I forget the exact year, but they said in two years or three years from now, it's the, the big shift that's occurring and very similar concepts to what you were describing as [00:29:00] the new Earth.
[00:29:01] Shilpa: And energetically, a lot of the souls that have been experiencing this on a collective level will hopefully be of service to the souls that are making those shifts and transitions are about to have that spark. Yeah. Yeah. And I see it everywhere, you know, people waking up and, um, you know, it's interesting 'cause where we really need that is, you know, it's great having lightworkers people that are in the healing field, the wellness field, that's great.
[00:29:32] Amanda: No, but actually where we need the lightworkers is in the medical field, in the educational field, in the corporations. It's not like, oh, I've had an awakening, now I'm gonna just become a healer. It's like, actually no. We need that higher level of fascists, people living from their higher heart where we can access the masses, the, the, the mainstream.
[00:29:52] Amanda: So people in the corporations that are living from a higher heart and actually weaving, weaving these. [00:30:00] Reality is that we are all connected. This is not a competitive environment. How can we lift each other up? How can we support each other? How can we take care of each other? How can we have reverence and honoring and love for each other and starting to weave that in through all the systems, all the systems.
[00:30:17] Amanda: This is where we will see the shift. This is where we'll see the shift, right? So, um, I think it's wonderful all of us in, in this field, but I think it's in the, in the corporations in that, that it's really, really needed, you know? Oh gosh. And it, when you were expressing it just moments ago saying that we will see that shift, I just got goosebumps because I had spent majority of my career in a very, um, what, what do you call it?
[00:30:47] Amanda: Patriarchal, very, um, cerebral environment, whether it's corporate or academically, and. I think what it did to me [00:31:00] spiritually was it stunted my spiritual side because I think innately I was deeply intuitive. Mm-hmm. And I found myself in my mid or early twenties struggling to justify my conclusions and my decisions and choices because it sounded so silly, even out loud to say it's just an intuition.
[00:31:28] Amanda: Oh. So a case in point was very early in my, um, academic world, I had chosen to go off and specialize in ai and I didn't know why. I just all connected linguistically. I understood language, I understood there was a connection between Sanskrit and language and it was my only series of straight A's in college.
[00:31:53] Amanda: And I thought, I'm gonna go off and get some sort of. PhD in this area, and I was told, Nope, it's a [00:32:00] dead end. And I felt so foolish. I was like, oh, I thought I, I had a strong intuition about this, so I I I let it And you Well, I, I let it go. I, I actually dismissed it. Went off into another niche, but related area.
[00:32:16] Amanda: And now as you see, AI is everywhere. Yeah. And I'm going back to my roots of spirituality and AI and connecting them. I love that. And so I, I, I think, okay, so now the biggest lesson was trust. Trust, trust your introduction. Yeah, absolutely. Trust that you are right in alignment. Right in alignment. And, and this is what I was talking about.
[00:32:40] Amanda: We all come in this way. Right. Until it's like, who knows whether there's teachers or parents or whatever. Don't be silly. You're not seeing that. Don't be silly. You're not seeing this energy, you're not seeing colors or, you know. Quiet. Don't be mention that people think you're crazy. You know, just enough to, that it's enough for you to go, okay, these gifts aren't safe.
[00:32:59] Amanda: Like, [00:33:00] and luckily I never had that experience, you know? So I was able to keep expanding. And with my own children, they both feel like language. I mean, they have incredible gifts, you know, because I facilitate, um, I don't put anything on them, but it's just activating within ledge, you know what I mean? So it is amazing, like with a beautiful flower, which gets just enough, right?
[00:33:20] Amanda: Sun and just enough water in the earth is just right. It just blossoms and it gets roots and wings and, you know, that's, that's the beauty. And, and that's what we want. And this is what I'm told about these environments where it's like we are honored for individuality, we're honored for the intuitive process.
[00:33:36] Amanda: I mean, if you look at even most people in the stock market, like are, are very successful business people. They're highly intuitive because yes, they're, they've got a practical side, but actually people in the stock market, they've gotta make decisions like that. That's a highly intuitive. Like tapped in intuitive.
[00:33:53] Amanda: People might know that exactly what they're doing, but of course it's a, it's an instinct. It's an inner knowing. It's a [00:34:00] higher connection. It's a listening to the, the ability to hear a higher, a higher guidance, right? Yes. And they may not necessarily have connected the dots in the way you and I think of it as intuition or spirituality.
[00:34:16] Amanda: But that's where I, I really think what you're onto something, because you're saying that the shift is going to occur, needs to occur. It's almost a necessity. It is occurring. It is, is happening. As we speak, our conversation will activate people. Our conversation will create cur your curiosity. Our conversation will create opening.
[00:34:37] Amanda: So let's talk, let's share, let's be open, let's be authentic. If you, you know, um, don't, don't hide this part of yourself. Be your truest freest, you know, most evolved self and. You know, for me, I've, I've never tried to like sell, you know, feng shui. I've never tried to sell any of this. It's just, we are who we are.
[00:34:59] Amanda: So [00:35:00] we can lead by example, we can lead through inspiration. It is, it's not, you know, the 3D is the forcing and the pushing and the exhaustion and the burning. The fifth dimension is just the beingness and the, you know, the embodiment of it. And the word ether comes to mind. It's, is very light. And like you were saying, it's, it's, versus the current energy or the one that we're shifting out of.
[00:35:24] Amanda: To me it feels dark, it feels heavy. It feels like there's almost like you're always pushing against something. And the way you described this shift for me is. It's exciting because one of the philosophies I had more on a very instinctive level from a young age was I like to just give, give my energy, give my time, and I want to collaborate.
[00:35:51] Amanda: And there was, there was a lack of, like, there was this child like no fear, like, oh, let's, let's do something exciting and fun, [00:36:00] like the world is our canvas. However, that's sort of gotten beaten out of me in corporate world where it's this, like this two bullheads meeting and it's competition versus collaboration.
[00:36:12] Amanda: But I think this new shift, whether it's because of post COVID, where we are now all becoming somewhat entrepreneurial and becoming excited about our own innate gifts. But then also connecting. I connect with so many people and I'll see opportunities where I feel like they're, we're all connecting to each other's lights, if that makes any sense.
[00:36:36] Amanda: So literally, we, we remember each other. Like, we, we all know what that's like. It's like I see you, I know you, I remember you, and we're having this deep remembrance of who we are. And, um, I just have a little bit of, of light language that would like to come in right now, if that's okay, of this, um, opening us up to remembering.
[00:36:55] Amanda: So I would just love for, for everyone, just take a moment and you can just close your [00:37:00] eyes and just bring your awareness to your internal landscape to your heart. Send this beautiful cord from your heart down to the heart of Mother Earth's, and then bringing your energy back up to your heart, straight up to your source of origin, beautiful to your, your source, your star, source of origin, where you come from.
[00:37:19] Amanda: Just evoking our highest cells now, and we're just opening up the codes for this. Beautiful. It's just, it just wants to come in.
[00:37:30] Amanda: I am
[00:37:35] Amanda: just seeing this beautiful golden light flowing through this beautiful golden air de light from through and all around you. I am allowing yourself to remember, to recognize, to awaken,
[00:37:57] Amanda: do,[00:38:00]
[00:38:06] Amanda: inviting everyone to take a deep inhale and exhale, and just like those beautiful corals codes, that beautiful golden light to just, just feel it as it just settles. Spill this. Recalibration, this kind of, uh, encoding, decoding, and recoding of the system as, as we all are just guiding each other's home, as we're all just helping each other.
[00:38:31] Amanda: Remember, remember who we are and where we come from.
[00:38:47] Amanda: That was so beautiful.
[00:38:49] Amanda: I actually felt goosebumps. And when you said golden light and I think articulating in like golden aura, it's interesting 'cause I'm launching a [00:39:00] new program soon and the colors that I've been using over and over without even knowing, 'cause I thought, well, that's not my branding color, but everything's just been golden, golden aura.
[00:39:11] Amanda: I love that. It's so beautiful. Yeah. It's, it's golden age, right? The golden age. Yeah. How beautiful. And when you tap into this, I always ask someone who's a lightworker, because I always feel uplifted. I feel like goosebumps and this, this energy go going through me. Um, how does this come through to you? Do you, do you learn this language?
[00:39:38] Amanda: Is it 'cause I think the very cerebral side of me, it's like once to understand it. Um, so light language, um, it's, it's really interesting. I feel like, you know, it's, you know, opening up the throat. Um, and that journey started for me a long, long, long time ago, actually 20 years ago. Um, when I actually lived in San [00:40:00] Diego at the time, I took this incredible.
[00:40:02] Amanda: Um, course called Finding Your Voice. This wonderful lady, her name Robbie Warren, I think was her name. Anyway, you have to basically, there was 20 of us in this group and it was like a six week course and you'd show up and you had to pick a song, and then you had like six weeks to prepare your song. And then at the end of the six weeks, we all had to divide all our family and friends.
[00:40:21] Amanda: So there's 20 of us, and we all brought 20 people. That was like 400 people right in the audience. So we had to get up. I am more young boy, there's a lot of light language coming through right now. But, um, I remember I got up on that stage and like I, first of all, when I got up there, I felt like I was actually naked 'cause it was so vulnerable, you know, our voice, letting our voice come through.
[00:40:42] Amanda: And I sang that song and I was transformed from ever forever onwards. It's like, you know, I, I speak everywhere. I sing on all my retreats. Like we, we chat, we tone. I mean, I just, it's so much comes through our voice, right? So that was extremely transformative. But when my Kundalini [00:41:00] awakening started five years ago.
[00:41:02] Amanda: It was just amazing, um, sensations in my body where literally I was feeling like, and I kind of named them myself, but I would feel like I was having like a heartgasm where solar plexus, it was like a full on orgasm coming from my heart, my whole body, or from my solar plexus or my third eye went through, right?
[00:41:21] Amanda: So it worked all the way up my system. And then for a while, and, and I know some of this might sound unusual, I literally would almost shapeshift into a crow, right? So I would like literally call and sometimes this would move through me, like for flowers, words wouldn't even come out. I would just, and uh, you know, a couple of my girlfriends that I'm very close with that are, were, were on the priestess path together.
[00:41:48] Amanda: They'll see the prob be like, hi Amanda, as I Shakespeare. But, so, but for about a couple years, I, I always felt like I had this African pip right here. My throat. [00:42:00] And I felt like no matter what kind of energy worker or anything I did, I felt like it was still always there. So then just one day
[00:42:10] Amanda: my soul just started speaking to me. And I do believe we, we all, we all spoke like language long before the first language Babylon, you know, Babylon language came, you know, if we look back to a lot of the ancient languages, even Gaelic my mother tongue, you know, that I speak, um. I do believe we all spoke like language.
[00:42:29] Amanda: And if you think about language, right? Even when we're speaking the same, same language, there's so much miscommunication in the world. Words when people are speaking the same language, but still there's so much miscommunication. So the beauty at Ria, lot of light language is it's all frequency and vibration.
[00:42:47] Amanda: So you hear me, you know, on your, your, my soul is speaking to your soul. So when light language comes through, I mean, it's such an amazing tool. It clears my energy, it lifts my energy. I, I cleanse homes, I work with [00:43:00] the land. Uh, uh, just oh, such an incredible, incredible tool. So it is, it is my soul speaking through me.
[00:43:08] Amanda: It's not words, it's just simply frequency and vibration. And, and light language can be used through mud and might started before it came through my voice. And it can come through toning and singing. It can come through movement. We can bring the light language, you know, as we dance and move. And then there's, um, painting light language, and then there's written light language and just scrolls of, um, codes and symbols come through.
[00:43:35] Amanda: So there's many different ways, but the, the spoken light language is for me, the, the main modality, um, that it comes through. So then it is a language of my soul. I am, and like getting to commune with my soul in this way. It is just been such a, such a gift. But, but now also there's upper dimension. So I [00:44:00] know that when I know the, like language of my soul.
[00:44:02] Amanda: But I also know sometimes when I'm channeling. Specific realms like the dragon realm or, uh, lum or, uh, a different, a different galactic realm. I know I am, there's a different, a whole different sound and frequency. And just like you were saying that, um, this woman that came on, I was uh, did you say some kind of a African Uh, yes.
[00:44:28] Amanda: Yeah. Well, sometimes I will be channeling different and I'm Oh, okay. And it's really interesting. Sometimes I'll even record it and listen back and just like get a whole new download from listening. And I actually even have a couple of girlfriends now. Um, well we don't really barely even speak English when we get together.
[00:44:45] Amanda: It's just whole language, which is so beautiful. I think that's just so fascinating. 'cause I have, as I mentioned to you, had a couple of guests who do like language and, um. [00:45:00] I had not seen it through the lens. You just articulated that it is a frequency because well before humans had an established set of languages, which is filled with misunderstandings, there were chances that we were still having our own forms of communication.
[00:45:26] Amanda: And it's a frequency, what, you know what I just have to mention, this is coming through to me, that the Sanskrit language is all phonetical and each of the sounds is a frequency. Absolutely, yes. Yes. It's unlike some of the more Eastern or western languages where there isn't a, a vibration to the words.
[00:45:49] Amanda: Yeah, but the, but when there's a vibration to the words, then you can almost start tuning into the vibration with no words having to be spoken. [00:46:00] Absolutely. Yeah. The primordial sound, the universal sound and yes, well, that's why I named my son Omni uh, um, after the word om the pramod sound of peace in the universe.
[00:46:13] Amanda: When you and your friends communicate on this level, um, is it the same like meaning are you speaking the same light language as them, or is it back to that vibrational understanding of one another? The language of their soul and the language of my soul? Yeah. You know, that, that is communing and then sometimes we will start channeling and it's very clear when we both go into a channeling, you know, and so like, you know, um, and um, um, a Monday morning walk together.
[00:46:45] Amanda: Maybe, you know, bring the kids to school and then meeting down at the beach and just bringing through these codes. And then the solar codes, the sun. And then as the, as the sun dances on the water and the codes that come in through the water, through the [00:47:00] divine mother. And like there is just so many gifts for us in the world.
[00:47:03] Amanda: There's so many infinite possibilities for us to commune and tap into and connect into an infiniteness, an infinite consciousness, because that is what it is now. And so, sometimes even while I am just on what we call a, a standard morning walk, right, um, I've had, and I haven't had a ton of them, and you know, I don't take anything so this wouldn't be, I've taken anything.
[00:47:28] Amanda: But I, there's a, a specific place down the road where you go through a forest and it leads you onto the beach and there's a sacred well there. And a couple times I've stood on the edge in between the forest and the beach, and I no longer can see the trees. I can no longer see. The granules of sand. I can no longer see the blades of grass.
[00:47:48] Amanda: I only see frequency. And the first couple times it definitely, I was like, I can't even see where to stand because all I'm seeing is the frequencies and the energy, the [00:48:00] energies of every granule sand and every tree, and every leaf. And it is the most magnificent, glorious, like, sight and present level of presence to be in to just, and, and, and I, I feel like that's as well with light language.
[00:48:16] Amanda: And we, we just, I just see you, I see your soul. I see the love and the essence and the light of you are, I don't, I don't see, you know, the, the, the, the, the, the physical, what you're wearing, what you're working as a job. It's the essence of my soul and your soul connecting from this beautiful, awakened space, you know?
[00:48:39] Amanda: Oh my goodness. I absolutely understand. And the more spiritual souls that I speak to over and over, the resonating messages that we're, we're the same and the more higher level of spirituality evolution you've experience. I've heard from those types of souls that [00:49:00] things just start becoming almost like atoms and cells.
[00:49:04] Amanda: And the separation of the human to human is almost silly. 'cause there's just this physical bone and flesh versus who we really are. The soul. The soul, and and I do think, you know, yes, that and yes, our bodies are important and yes, we need to fully embody our bodies and we need to take care of our bodies and we need to take care of each other's bodies and we need to lift each other up and love each other and be kind and be loving.
[00:49:37] Amanda: Right. Yes, absolutely. Okay, so I, I could talk to you again. Oh my gosh. I know we could chat, chop chat. There's so many levels of going deeper and deeper. I know, I know. We'll do another one. We'll do another one. I, I would love that. Now, just to kind of bring it back full circle though, because I think I have an interesting way to bring it back full circle to feng shui, [00:50:00] because now let's think of that as more on the base level, physical level and having to, as humans experience our environment, the, the, I guess we could call it the 3D environment where we have the roof and things within that still energetically bringing in your knowledge comes feng shui and your more intuitive understanding of feng shui, meaning the optimal space.
[00:50:35] Amanda: For in light of upliftment of your soul, from that perspective, can you share your, your, um, knowledge, maybe just in a nugget form of why it is important to, to design our space? Absolutely. Well, first of all, we spend up to 80% of our time in our homes, right? [00:51:00] 80% of our time. A third of it's sleeping. And just think about all the sacred special experiences, the intimate experiences that we have in our home, right?
[00:51:08] Amanda: And we all deserve to have a sacred sanctuary, right? Because our home houses our physical, emotional, mental spirit, our soul, right? Our home is, it is like the, the container fer it all, and you know. It is scientifically proven that everything is made up of energy. So we're back to the energy, right? So I love to come into my home and I love to give so much gratitude to it and touch the walls and say thank you.
[00:51:38] Amanda: You know? And I, the first thing I always ask people is when you enter your home, your spirits rise. How do they fall? Because there could be some very simple reasons as to why, right? 'cause we all deserve to have a home that we walk in. It's like, it's given us this hug. It's like, welcome home. I love you. I love you.
[00:51:56] Amanda: Because our homes are either representing our past, right? [00:52:00] Or who we are and where we wanna go. So, so that's our in intent of feng shui that it is. And it's, you know what I find really interesting? 'cause you know, I've been practicing and teaching Feng SSI for over 25 years, is it's always like, and I've got hens and we get eggs, but it's always like, walk in first the chicken or the egg, right?
[00:52:16] Amanda: Because when we feng shu our homes. We are raising the frequency of our home. So then people get transformation because the container is rising so that the inner work gets kind of catapulted and sped up. Or is it that we do the inner work and we go, well, I deserve a home that feels better and I'm going to co-create that.
[00:52:36] Amanda: So that's the beautiful dance that happens. And then again, we talk about that mirror aspect. Well, our home is another mirror. If the light bulbs are burnt out, are we a bit burnt out? If the door happens, they're loose. Do we not have a firm grip on light water is very much so associated with. Money, right?
[00:52:52] Amanda: So if the, if you got leaks anywhere, the money is leaking. If, if the, the drainage is blocked, like where are we blocked in our body? Where are our [00:53:00] emotions blocked, right? So the home is this incredible mirror and just like we can in our own, like we can have blind spots, right? So the home awakens us. It, it can awaken us on our journey and it can support us.
[00:53:15] Amanda: And it can be this constant 24. That's what I love about shui. It's like you have this constant support 24 7. 'cause when your home is in alignment and it's balanced and the energy is flowing right, it is supporting you every moment. You like supporting a good night's sleep. It's supporting your digestion, your food as you eat.
[00:53:31] Amanda: It's supporting deep communion and communication with you and your family. And, you know, it's like, so, so that's the beauty of feng shui. When, when a home is in alignment, it supports us. Absolutely. And I would love to go deeper into that, um, with you. Maybe, maybe not necessarily today, but one thing that I wanted to comment on is, um, being raised Hindu in a very, [00:54:00] um, traditional culture of Hinduism, we would do, um, ceremonies.
[00:54:07] Amanda: So my parents and I moved to India when I was very young, born and raised in the States. And when we moved to India, before we could even set foot in the home that was being built, we had, um, a puja uh, ceremony. And where they dig up soil, they use the soil as part of the fire and the fire ceremony. And I hate to say this, that I at that age was like, oh, another ceremony.
[00:54:37] Amanda: I was like a one of those disgruntled teens. Like I, I, it's hot, I'm tired, you know? But now I'm just like so fascinated. Like, I want to know what were those rit mantras that were being said? Why were we doing that? And I've even got my husband fascinated by the idea that when you [00:55:00] bless the land and you honor the land and you take time to understand that environment, it's, it's it helping uplift it like you were sharing.
[00:55:15] Amanda: And also, I think my dad always does this to this day, whenever we talk about our home, our home is facing sort of the ocean, kind of west North. Yeah. But whenever there's any talk of a home, he's like, oh, what direction is it facing? Well, you know, in, in fe shui, I mean, and everything. Um, which is the, the form of feng shui.
[00:55:39] Amanda: And, and yes, I mean, I, I'm, I'm talking about the energetics, but like the, the feng shui that I practice, the classical feng shui, that also is really powerful. Um, we look at the direction, the exact degrees that it faces, the year that the home took its first breath, like, when did the roof go on? So how were the stars and the [00:56:00] cosmos?
[00:56:00] Amanda: How was everything aligned when the roof went on? And that captured the energetic blueprint of the home. And yes, like I'm, I'm big into ceremonies and rituals and always cleansing the home and, you know, and you know, just like we brush our teeth every day and we shower, we are also responsible for our own energy and cleansing our own energy and the energy of our homes, right?
[00:56:22] Amanda: Because we have colds, we have disagreements. People come in and leave an energy, you know, so we are responsible for our own, um. Our own, like talk about already the inner work, but also like cleansing our field and keeping our own frequency and vibration high. And I think if, if we're going to be doing this work, we really have to be accountable for our own energy and we have to walk our talk, you know?
[00:56:46] Amanda: 'cause I train and have been training people as I have a feng shui certification program. I've been training people for 20 years and I'm like, you cannot quit in the world or practice until you are embodying this and you're woke and you're talk. You know what I mean? [00:57:00] Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. Um, I started telling you this before we hit record, that I've always had this natural.
[00:57:09] Amanda: Um, inclination, so to speak, for, um, making my ecosystem lovely or I, I, I use the word zen. I used to always call it my zen space. When my husband met me, he, he could see that like I had this big elephant table and some peacock, uh, feathers, and it's, and even now you can see in my home office, there's a ish and little sage and candle and things like that.
[00:57:36] Amanda: Um, so I started to design this program that never actually, um, took off yet because I haven't started. It was called The Sacred Space, um, because I feel like a lot of us, we prevent ourselves from going deeper into a spiritual routine or practice because. I think the Western culture makes you think, oh, it has to be this firm [00:58:00] thing and it has to be something so solidified.
[00:58:02] Amanda: I mean, I'm victim to that thinking, but I started to shift that thinking a few years ago, saying maybe the sacred spaces, even at the edge of your bed, where you could start your meditation in the morning. Absolutely. Maybe it's dance out in the garden, or maybe it's just laying out on the lawn or, you know what, whatever that, that practice, because you will be divinely guided.
[00:58:26] Amanda: You will be divinely guided. Yes. So that sacred space can be more formal with the principles and elements that you've described. Mm-hmm. And it can also be a state of mind of Absolutely. You know, I, I start my mo meditation, I, I sit up straight on the edge of the bed. That's my morning sacred space, because that can then start allowing us to then.
[00:58:53] Amanda: Proactively taking responsibility. What else is in my home? Where else can I reflect? What mm-hmm. [00:59:00] It, what piece I feel in my heart? Yeah, absolutely. And you know, uh, I always say this like we have a, a soul agreement with our home. We have a soul agreement with the land that we live on. Like, you know, when people are looking to buy or rent a house and they go in and outta all these places?
[00:59:18] Amanda: No. And they walk into one and it's like, this is it. You know, it's because there's an energetic match and you on a soul level have agreed to come in and do the healing of that land. And, and that home and that home and that land have also agreed to come in and do that. And there's usually a vibrational match, which is really, really, really fascinating.
[00:59:39] Amanda: And that's where Feng shui. I mean, it's so, it is fascinating. Even though I've been practicing it 25 years, it still blows me away how when we run these numbers and we look at the energetic blueprint, the proof is in the pudding. It, that's what the people are experiencing in their lives. And then when they go, you know what?
[00:59:56] Amanda: I'm done with those old patterns. I'm done with experiencing that. And [01:00:00] let's say they're ready to shift the energy of their home. And we can do that by working with the elements and just various colors and, and shifting the vibration. Or they go, I, I'm complete with this home. I'm ready to this go. And again, we, they might look at new other homes and we would run the numbers.
[01:00:18] Amanda: And sometimes they're tracking the same home in a different place, just like the same relationship, different guy, same story, right? Same kind of thing until they go, no, no, no, I'm ready for something new. And then they consciously choose to shift that, and then they bring in a completely different energetic frequency of a space or.
[01:00:39] Amanda: That's interesting. You should say run the numbers because that sounds like something my dad would talk about. Yeah, exactly. I thought I'd bring that piece in. I love that idea. When you say run the numbers, does it mean like, uh, astronom uh, astrological? Yeah. Basically you're running, you're running the flying stars, which is the, the energetic alignment of the stars.
[01:00:57] Amanda: And it's really funny. It's almost [01:01:00] like some people say it's like, um, I've never played a Sudoku. 'cause you've got literally five numbers in all these squares and you're floating them. And every single one of the numbers relate with a certain energetic frequency. Then there's elements you can bring to neutralize ones that are in suspicious.
[01:01:15] Amanda: And then there's elements you can bring to activate, like money codes and love codes and health codes. Yeah, it's, it's kind of amazing 'cause a lot of people think feng shui is like rearranging a sofa or something. No, it goes so deep. It's a lifetime of knowledge and practice and, and you know, it's, I love it because all the beloveds that practice punctuality, they have such a love and a reference for it.
[01:01:39] Amanda: And I think it's also because there's such a practical, like you position yourself with a solid wall behind you. You can see the doors, you can see at the window, you're gonna feel more supported, your nervous system can relax more. You know, your body feels better. Right? So there's a real practical side to function.
[01:01:53] Amanda: Fix broken things. Get rid of clutter. Yeah, of course you're gonna feel better. Your house isn't full of clutter. Right? Piles are clutter and stuff. But then there's a [01:02:00] very ethereal, energetic space clearing. Energy clearing. There's a very intentional side to it in such a way that your whole home is a vision board.
[01:02:08] Amanda: Your whole home is a sacred altar. You've got the entire universe. Of the microcosm within the macrocosm within your home to work with. So I think it really works. So there's an analytical where we're analyzing the numbers we're running and floating these numbers. We're, we're looking at the energetic blueprint that these numbers bring in and how we can kind of work with them and as I said, activate good stuff and neutralize in auspicious, which we all have lightened our right.
[01:02:34] Amanda: We all have that within us, but it's also within all our homes as well. Oh my goodness. Um, that's a treasure trove of wisdom and knowledge and experience and insights that I had even because what I've often heard is the aspect that my dad brings in, which is the, um, the sign the direction, which felt somewhat scientific to me.
[01:02:59] Amanda: [01:03:00] Yeah, yeah. But then I would hear from the western philosophy way, it would simply become a very, um, mechanical like what, what placement? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Objects. But the way we've gone deeper into it, I had never heard this, but I, I think my dad's been alluding to this, is that you are an energetic match to the land and earth and the, the home.
[01:03:25] Amanda: And it also responding to your energy, because that is how I feel about this home. When Rich and I were looking, you know, I'm from San Diego, so we had looked and looked and I had this aversion like, I will not move into a cookie cutter home. There was energetically, I just couldn't do that. I needed a home with a character.
[01:03:44] Amanda: And the moment I walked into this home that we live in, I was immediate, I was like this immediate yes. Even though our realtor was like, oh, check out the huge, uh, Flintstone fireplace. And you're like, I love it. We [01:04:00] love it. We love the old fireplace. And then, um, oh, it needs a lot of work. Well. See my husband are both designers.
[01:04:07] Amanda: We could see where it was gonna go. And so, and now it's there. I mean, still got a ways to go, but then we were immediately like, no, are you kidding me? We see that this could happen in this space, this can happen. And the whole space, this might also be because we were so energetically match, my husband and I.
[01:04:26] Amanda: So we brought that energy 'cause we were both really into making our home our zen space. But it's, I would say to anyone who would spiritually listen that our home has really good energy and it's got, it's, we got this huge tree, we call it chi or my, my, um, my husband likes to call it the Hulk. This huge, this big, huge bunion tree that is constantly destroying the roots of the hole in water.
[01:04:54] Amanda: But it's got this huge energy. Wow. It's a guardian of that. Yeah, I think [01:05:00] so. I mean, it causes destruction. Well, I mean, you could talk to the tree and just say, I love you, I honor you. Thank you for being here, but please don't be affecting the foundation. And, and, and it will re reroute, reroute itself. You know, that's interesting.
[01:05:13] Amanda: You should say that. Um, so my guru, you probably see him in the background for those who are watching Parma Yoga. Have you? Are you? Yeah, absolutely. Yes. Yeah, he, there's a story of him being in the desert back in the days when he was in California and do you remember this story about they had a beautiful garden for meditation.
[01:05:35] Amanda: And in this space, from what I remember, there are cactuses, there are a lot of cactuses in California. And um, he would pray to them that you have nothing to fear. There's only love here. And they dropped their. Defenses. So there are these smooth cacti around that garden area because [01:06:00] the vibration was said that you have nothing to fear.
[01:06:03] Amanda: Yeah, absolutely. Nature wants to work with us. It, it wants to be free and express the himself and, you know, but it also wants to work with us. So if you honor it and, you know, um, you know, for years I've worked with the land, I, I do land healing Dao. I, um, but I, there's so many different offerings you can give to the land.
[01:06:23] Amanda: You know, people bring crystals, they bring herbs, they bring, and I finally, after all these years, have realized the only offering that we need to bring to the land, to each other is this level of presence and love. And if you want to gift a song, a prayer, a, a chant, you know, we don't have to leave anything.
[01:06:45] Amanda: 'cause uh, actually what was started to happen here in Ireland, for example, is, um. We have these ancient, sacred sites like megalithic stones, older than the, the pyramids in Egypt and everything. And people would bring alcohol and porn. But what it was doing is [01:07:00] dissolving these ancient, ancient rocks. And then people would bring, milk was another offering for trees, but it was rotting the roots of the tree.
[01:07:08] Amanda: Or then people come into these incredible, aligned with the cosmos stone circles, and they would leave crystals, and of course, they would start to throw things off. So my thing now is just come with a level of presence. See the land, witness the land, love the land, you know, uh, the tree. Sing a song. And, and it's something about actually acknowledging, like, we all want to be acknowledged.
[01:07:30] Amanda: We all want to be appreciated. We all want to be seen and loved and heard. So that's all you gotta do is go out and sit with the tree and, and, and love communicate with it. Even to just appreciate it, like I do my gratitude practice in the morning and I have a beautiful Jakarta tree, the purple flower ones, and each springtime, it's right against like my window when I look out working here.
[01:07:52] Amanda: And I, each spring I look forward to it blossoming. And the other day I was doing my exercise and my sun is next to me. [01:08:00] He goes, I see the first blossom of, and then within a week, the whole tree started to blossom. And I, I, I actually part include that in my gratitude. Like, thank you for each springtime to make my life so filled with joy, just looking at those flowers.
[01:08:19] Amanda: And I believe that they get the vibration, the gratitude. It's so beautiful. I mean, nature responds. I remember one time saying to my husband, I so appreciate these beach walks, and I'm not kidding you, we probably saw several dozen dolphins just magically come out. I know. Gratitude is a, I, I think that's the note I would love to like end today on is yes, gratitude, gratitude, gratitude.
[01:08:49] Amanda: Like I do it every day at the over the meal with my, with my family. And I just am in constant a and of the beauty. [01:09:00] And you know, we know that wherever we our attention goes is where the energy goes. So why not let it be the gratitude? Yeah. And I wanna so grateful, thank you for having me here today. So speak.
[01:09:11] Amanda: Absolutely. That was such a lovely, deep, powerful conversation and I am so grateful for you. Oh. And I'm so grateful for you. Thank you for inviting me, and thank you to all the beloveds that are here listening to us as well. So I hope that everybody receives something from being here with us today.
[01:09:33] Amanda: Absolutely. And you have so many beautiful gifts that you offer in things you teach. It'll be in the show notes and as, as well as your feng shui teachings, correct? Absolutely. And I have a light language course for people that would like to activate their light language. Mm-hmm. I mean, you like activate your own.
[01:09:51] Amanda: But I do several transmissions and guidance on ways that you can facilitate it opening. And then I have, um, also a [01:10:00] training on, um, land healing, working with the land and like how we've been chatting about. And then just to mention as well, I, I've only just, it's. It's it, what happens to me is I get these downloads and I, I get kind of, I call them like soul missions, like to retreat that I have to lead in person.
[01:10:18] Amanda: Like I did one in Greece, um, in May, and then sk like Michael in Ireland, a sacred island, which is now closed the public in September. So I didn't know I'd be doing anything in 25, but I just got, um, my, my sole mission that I'll be doing a a two day retreat in August in Manchester. So that will be listed on my website fairly soon as well.
[01:10:39] Amanda: So, so wonderful. Well, um, any detail you provided me or already provided me, I will make sure earnestly in the show notes, this will be available on YouTube and all social, uh, platforms and uh, podcast platforms. Thank you so much for having me here. I'm so grateful. [01:11:00] I'm so grateful for you. Thank you so much and have a lovely day.
[01:11:04] Amanda: You too. Take care. Bye-bye. Bye.
