July Community Connections

Have you ever taken a walk through the woods but couldn’t stop checking behind you? Did you feel like you were being watched, or that the woods were speaking to you? If you’ve ever had an experience like this, then you have probably been around the hidden folk and nature spirits without even knowing it.All cultures on the planet have folktales to preserve their history.  Many of these include characters that are deemed as fictional by today’s standards, but are they?  Or have we all become so domesticated that we are unable to connect with those that are populating this other dimension of existence? Nature spirits are different from those we may have encountered as ancestors, guides, angels or other types of teachers. The nature spirits intentionally stand between our world and the rest of nature.  These spirits can help us reconnect back into a deeper relationship with the natural world.We often refer to there being a veil between the worlds and that it has been getting thinner and thinner in recent years.  As mediums and intuitives, we know the spirit world interacts and intersects with the physical world.  Please join Denise and Samantha as they explore ways to identify and interact with the Hidden Folk no matter where you live!

Meeting the Hidden Folk

Please join Samantha and Denise as they invite you to sit around the virtual table and have a chat!  This episode is based on an email sent in by a member of our listening community who asks: Can you manifest something if it’s not on the blueprint of your life plan? It’s an interesting question and brings up free will and the concept of whether you truly can change the trajectory of your life or if you’re predestined to live strictly by your life plan.

Healing and Releasing the Shadows

How would your life look if you befriended your shadow? Would it lead to more self-acceptance and better boundaries? In this episode, we are pulling back the curtain to look at that part of ourselves that holds repressed, negative emotions.  During these times of transition, it is the perfect time to expose those shadows to the light of day and take away the power it may hold over our lives. The first step in befriending your shadow is to identify it and acknowledge that it’s there.  Through recognizing the triggers, the words, the situations that hold us back from expressing ourselves and living our best lives, we are able to rewrite the script to what we want our lives to look like rather than what we’ve accepted it to be. Some shadow emotions to explore may be: Anger Fear Shame Guilt Embarassment Repressed Sadness Be honest with yourself about what you’re feeling is the first step to leading a more balanced and fulfilled life.  In next week’s episode, we will take this work a step further and explore how to work with the chakras system to eradicate those shadows once and for all!For more information on Samantha and all of her offerings: http://samanthafey.com  and Denise is at: http://thegratefulmessenger.com

Sandra’s practice is located in Brunswick, Maine 25 miles north of Portland, and Tucson, Arizona.  She can be reached at 207.751.2079 and/or scarslick@comcast.net   Katherine Davis Katherine believes that awakening is a process of remembering.

Having trained and practiced as a massage therapist since 1999, her work is an intuitive combination of CST and energy healing. Each session is tailored to the client, integrating the techniques from the Upledger Institute, where she continues to study craniosacral therapy and other healing modalities, to which she’s been a life long student.

Meet John Holland!

La was a nonprofit executive for 18 years who turned into a Hmong food entrepreneur. If you would’ve told her 5 years ago that she would be getting married and uprooting her whole life to move to the Pacific Northwest and live on a farm and go on this journey, she would’ve never believed you. After meeting the love of her life, she married Steve and moved to the metro Portland, OR area over 3 years ago. She worked for 9 months in her former career, but that journey had to end. The toxic environment along with moving so far away from her son, family, friends and everything she built in Milwaukee, Wisconsin sent her into a depression. Steve loved her enough to let her take some time off to find herself.  After a year of exploring the woods of Oregon, living on a farm and raising chickens, she emerged with a vision and mission of bringing her culture and cuisine to life. La launched La Vang Foods LLC 1.5 years ago with the sole purpose of creating a Hmong food movement and cultural experiences in the Pacific Northwest. Through her business, she launched @La’s, a Hmong Food Cart located in the Aloha/Beaverton area in metro Portland, Oregon. It’s the only Hmong food establishment in the PNW in the entire 40 year history of her people’s immigration to that area from Southeast Asia. She also launched her brand of food products such as her artisan Hmong sausages and condiments using produce from her farm while keeping true to Hmong tradition of fresh and locally source products. Since the launch of the food cart, she’s been featured in Portland Monthly; have been invited to give talks and demonstration about her food and culture throughout the city; she had the distinct honor of having her food cart be named the “Best New Food Cart of 2018” by The Oregonian; and she was just in Arlington, VA at a Women Farm to Food Competition where she presented her business plan to the agricultural commissioners and their leadership from the 50 states where she placed 2nd and winning $10,000 for her business. This is just the beginning as she has this vision to create an Agribusiness on her farm to preserve her agrarian culture, cuisine and tradition. All of this was due to her following her bliss and listening to her intuition and trusting God and The Universe. http://www.lavangfoods.com/ @La’s, a Hmong Food Cart
