Living in Ceremony: Decoding Prayer

The work is rewarded by the gifts you receive in silence.

The Awaken Podcast—a space for seekers, leaders, and visionaries ready to walk in deep alignment with self, spirit, and purpose.

After a sacred pause, Natasja Pelgrom returns to the mic with fresh insights, a reawakened sense of purpose, and a powerful new season dedicated to exploring self-leadership, ritual, and stewardship in a time of psychedelic expansion.

This solo episode sets the tone with one of the central pillars of this season: Living in Ceremony—and more specifically, the profound art of decoding prayer as a living, breathing practice.

🌿 In this solo transmission, Natasja explores:

• Why we must stop waiting for sacredness and begin co-creating it with life
  
• What it means to “live in ceremony” in everyday moments
  
• One of the nine principles of ceremonial living: decoding prayer
  
• Insights from science, quantum physics, and ancient wisdom on prayer and intention
  
• How your inner landscape shapes the outer world—and how to lead from within
  

This is an invitation to listen not just with your mind, but with your body, your breath, and your heart.
