from The Embody Podcast | Alignment + Loving Yourself · host Candice Wu

Love, sensuality, abundance, money, compliments, touch…Plus a sharing about a recent experience with a ghost that I now would rather call a spirit or ancestor and my experiences with Molly Shanahan/Mad Shak Dance Company recently around movements born from trauma.This conversation is Part 2 of 3 on the investigation and self-inquiry around taking, receiving, and giving. Last week, I explored the developmental need and assertive tool of taking — the benefits of being able to take and how taking comes before giving in the spectrum of life.Listen to Part 1: Taking vs. Receiving: Cleanse Your Ideas of Taking Receiving, and GivingNext week — Part 3: Giving With Awareness Links, Article, and ResourcesAll Show Notes for This Episode📝 https://candicewu.com/receiving Podcast Homepage🎧 https://candicewu.com/podcastNewsletter & Embody Community💌 https://candicewu.com/embody-communityDonations – Your Support Means So Much!💝 https://candicewu.com/supportCandice Wu Page on Facebook👫 https:///EmbodyYourNatureFollow Candice on Instagram📷 https://instagram.com/EmbodyYourNature Sponsored by the Ally with Death Audio ExperientialIt’s important to let die what needs to die.Our relationship with Death gives us Life — If we do not honor death, can we really know what it is to live?
