Awakening the Illuminated Heart | Viola Rose

#429 In this podcast episode, Guy talked with Viola Rose about the collective sense of change happening in the world and why she believed people were being called to live more from the heart. Viola explained how the mind often created reality through duality, while the heart offered a path toward unity, love, and deeper inner peace. She shared practices for moving awareness from the head into the heart and described how this helped people heal trauma, quiet the mind, and live with more ease.  They also discussed the Merkaba, sound healing, the power of the voice, and how nature, vibration, and frequency supported personal transformation.  By the end, Viola reflected that while she did not claim to know all the answers, she had chosen to live with love, service, joy, and trust in the mystery of life.
