Episode 025 with Jordenelle Tsugawa

Life is not happening to you, it is happening FOR you. Here's a quick list of things that Jordenelle Tsugawa is based on my show notes: A natural healer, soon-to-be herbalist, a mystical knowledgebase of divine love, a grateful positive friend to all, openhearted, open-minded tiny-home living forest-dwellin' absolutely awesome spiritual being to talk to. We talk all things Energy, Herbalism, Chakras, Grounding, Connection, Meditation, Visualization, Self Love and Growth. We cover growing up in small towns. growing as wiser adults, alcohol addictions, family traumas and a couple of personal stories about empathic moments. Jay opens it up with the chakras and she feeds my open mind with relatable ways of understanding or thinking about these difficult to explain concepts. We expand on the mental connection between the physical body and mind and we talk about being open and uncomfortable to learn about one another. Jay and I talk about self-love as adults and changing into our truest selves and how one must touch on trauma and generational experiences to do so. We talk about the gap that the internet and technology have provided younger generations. Jay tells us about Forest Bathing to cleanse baggage, anxiety, and depression and we share our ways of healing with nature. She recently moved into a TINY home and totally loves it! She shares how she actualizes her goals with planners, mantras, affirmations, and hard work to believe in herself. YOU ARE ENOUGH - we both agree! We break down words like "trigger" and "intuition" and agree that gossip is lame. We share a few experiences in our lives that have given us synchronicity - an empathic story together from a few years back, and we touch slightly on shrooms and microdosing. Soul is love fear is ego. "ok ego, i hear you. but where's my soul?" (epic soundbyte!) She tells me about her Full Moon Circle and she talks about quitting alcohol, balancing cravings and inspecting vices. We shed some light on living in such a beautiful place, with the beautiful people and the community around us, most certainly including the party connections and the glass table conversations. I love Jay's way of seeing this world. She is such an incredibly comforting light. She has a lot to teach. I see those of her personality, worldview, vibrant energy and intelligence as a very important role in all cultures and society. Her type keeps us connected to what's real and right here. The reminder of Spirit in a Science World. Someone who doesn't let us forget that our problems are sometimes not solved from terminology and concepts on top of reality out here, but may just only be healed from within. If your life ever leads you to bump into an open-hearted interaction with the healer type, the psychic type, the mystic, the empath... the person connected to their inner guidance and intuition... you might wanna be on the lookout for some ripples in your own life soon after ;) The light in me, sees the light in you!
