Energy Healing is Self-Nurturing with Madala Machini

This episode invites listeners into a tender, truth-telling conversation between Cordelia Gaffar and yoga teacher and energy healer Madala Machini about what it really means to care for yourself at the deepest level. Together, they explore how practices like acupuncture, meditation, and yoga support healing not just on the surface, but all the way down to the cellular level, reminding us that the body is always working on our behalf.Madala shares her transformative journey into energy healing, including a pivotal trip to India that opened her path, and how teaching yoga and offering energetic support became her way of giving back to her community. The episode moves through themes of self-nurturing as self-love, the courage it takes to challenge yourself in your growth, and the power of visioning retreats to help you name and manifest what you truly desire.​Throughout the conversation, Cordelia and Madala emphasize the importance of creating safe spaces where vulnerability is welcomed, where “every day is a second chance,” and where it is never too late to begin your health journey. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of how energy work can hold physical and emotional discomfort, and with practical inspiration to see your own self-nurturing as sacred, courageous, and completely available to you now.Madala Machini is a 500-hour certified yoga instructor, energy healer, and masters student of acupuncture and herbs whose work bridges ancient wisdom and modern mindfulness. She is known for her calm, grounding presence and her ability to create a safe, nurturing space for self-awareness and healing.In-Person Visioning Retreat• January 10, 2026 | 10:00 AM  at Tuft n' Up Studio & Social • Early Bird Rate: $175 until Dec. 15 • General Admission: $250 • Reserve your place: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-wholeness-center-2026-visioning-retreat-pause-reflect-realign-tickets-1965651488516?aff=oddtdtcreatorGrateful to our venue partner @tuftnupstudio.social.Virtual Visioning Retreat• January 11, 2026 | 10:00 AM • Early Bird Rate: $125 until Dec. 15 • General Admission: $200 • Reserve your virtual seat: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-wholeness-center-2026-virtual-visioning-retreat-tickets-1970033518285?aff=oddtdtcreator#TheWholenessCenter #VisioningRetreat #Mindfullness #visionboard #MindfulnessRetreat #Manifestation #BIPOCWellness #BIPOCWomenLead #PurposefulLiving #Goals #EmpoweredWomen #PersonalGrowthJourney #EntrepreneurMindset
