Ep 10: Exploring the Self Through Names and Metta with Shea Olinger
My guest this week is Lightworker Shea Olinger. This testimonial captures it all. “Humble, kind, grounded, intuitive, genuine, these are just some of the qualities that describe Shea. Receiving a massage from her is not simply bodywork. Shea is holistic in her approach in that she tends to both your physical needs as well as your emotional and spiritual concerns. Her touch is magical and her intuitive sense of knowing just what areas of the body are calling for attention and what’s needed during the massage is simply awe inspiring. From her use of hot stones, cupping as well as aromatherapy, you are so lovingly cared for, you feel as if you’re nestled in a very sacred womb; a womb of healing, revitalization and most importantly tender, nurturing care. I highly recommend Shea if you are considering a massage therapist. Five stars is simply not enough to rate the quality of care she provides and the heart-centered healer she is. ” ~ AMMA TANYAWe discuss:1. Shea’s story and how she came to Asheville.2. The magic of synchronicity. 3. Doing the ‘shadow work’ on a path of self-discovery.4. What it means to change one’s name.5. Claiming one’s truth and identity.6. Thai Bodywork and the message of Metta.You can find Shea at https://mettahearthealingarts.com/

Ep 9: Alexander Technique with Michele Drivon
Chronic back pain and the desire to feel truly at home in her own skin led Michèle to take lessons and train to be a teacher of the Alexander Technique. This simple and proven education in the “how” of coordinating body-mind, increases ease of movement by redirecting excessive tension into useful energy. A common result is relief from pain and distress caused by everyday habits, accompanied by a simultaneous increase in awareness/sensitivity while reducing reactivity. Michèle completed the 3-year, 1600-hour training at The Alexander Educational Center in Berkeley, CA and has been teaching individuals and groups since 2009.
