How to have a consistent meditation practice instead of adding it to your list of shoulds. Meditation is a hot topic that everyone talks about, yet so many of us find resistance in it being a consistent, fulfilling practice. You're not the only one that struggles with meditating, whether you're struggling in your current practice to stay consistent or struggling because you don't have a practice in the first place.
This episode might help you fall in love with meditation!
Debra is joined by Kilkenny Tremblay, Yoga and Meditation professor and host of Modern Mystic Podcast, who in addition to being a lifelong lover of meditation, yoga, and other spiritual teachings, is an alumni of Debra's Applied Astrology school.
Kilkenny and Debra discuss how meditation is a dynamic practice, not a one-size-fits-all approach. Debra sheds light on a part of Kilkenny's Astrological chart that countless other professional Astrologers have seemed to avoid, making Kilkenny's point of how solid Debra's approach and Astrological method is, and how Astrology terminology will soon be as fluent to the masses as yoga has become.
The history and dynamics of Pluto are highlighted, bridging the connection between Kilkenny's intense passion for life and her work, and her ability to speak to the seen and unseen, the magical and the mundane.
Here's your chance to learn about the influence of Pluto in Astrology and update your perspective on why meditation is so powerful. Plus you'll hear tips on how to integrate meditation fully into your life, and if you have children, how to get them interested, too!
