Awakening and Healing Your Womb with Diana Beaulieu

Ep. 80
•

Did you know your womb is one of your strongest energetic centers? It affects your relationships, your sexuality, your health, your creativity, and your manifesting powers.


For this episode, I sat down with Diana Beaulieu. Diana is a Modern Medicine Woman, Womb Awakening teacher, coach, author, speaker, and storyteller. With studies in biology, human sciences, and psychoneuroimmunology she worked as an anthropologist and a writer and researcher for international NGOs focusing on addiction, homelessness, and women’s service. After a deep and personal healing journey, she founded Sacred Woman Awakening - a new modality and healing path designed to help women overcome past sexual and emotional trauma to step into a new level of feminine embodiment and empowerment.


MY 5 BIGGEST TAKEAWAY FROM THIS EPISODE


1- Everybody needs to heal their sexual energy. Women who have a physical womb hold trauma in that part of their body. Trauma can be something that happens to you, it can be collective or ancestral. Men also have that energetic center and trauma to heal related to their masculine energy.

2- You can move through trauma, you can become embodied and available to love and you can anchor yourself in such a degree of self-love that you can truly magnetize a loving partner who's able to reflect back what you already feel for yourself.

3- Two of the biggest energy centers we have in our bodies are the womb and the heart. A lot of us are still in our heads. It's not only an organ, it's a center of awareness. It's alive, it has consciousness, intuition, emotions, memories. She's a multifaceted aspect of us.

4- We can access the womb energy by our intuition, listening, asking her to tell us; share with us. Once we start to really listen, we start to wish to heal whatever story is there. We can start to heal her by bringing healing energy and healing light into its space. Once we healed the womb, we can access its wisdom.

5- Trauma attracts trauma. Awakening and healing the womb helps us attract a very pure masculine energy. Couples can work together so both can heal and grow to the potential that they know they have. And understand how we affect each other's energy.

    By learning to feel your shame more fully, you'll be able to be yourself more authentically and access more joy in your life. Hiding your emotional self unintentionally disconnects you from who you are and turns down the volume on all your emotions. But everything changes when you give yourself permission to feel, and discover that it's not as scary as you think.I share the process I use with coaching clients to help them shift out of shame and into a place of presence.

  • 247. Psychedelic Healing 101 (Part 1), with Chuchu Wang

    36:43||Ep. 247
    As psychedelics become more mainstream and popular, it's crucial to approach these powerful medicines with caution, integrity, and responsibility - especially if you're a highly sensitive person. To help me explore this topic, I have psychedelic healing expert Chuchu Wang on the podcast. Through her own personal experiences and the work she does at Ceremonia, the retreat center she co-founded, Chuchu has witnessed both the beautiful, magical healing that can happen with psychedelics and the tragic, re-traumatizing experiences that can occur in the wrong setting with the wrong facilitator.In part one of this two-part episode, we discuss the fundamentals of psychedelic healing, what you need to know before deciding if this modality is right for you, how to properly prepare for a journey, and the foundation for navigating the experience itself. Be sure to return for part two next week, where we talk about integration, support, community, and how to avoid or deal with a "bad trip."Get full show notes and more information here: https://erikabelanger.com/247
