Episode: 134
Explore winter solstice traditions, healing practices, and the power of intention.
Lara explains how she discovered the 13 Holy Nights and how it shifted her approach to the winter season. She discusses how this sacred practice serves as a counterbalance to the over-commercialized winter holidays and guides us to realign with the rhythm of the season.
We explore the contrast between solstice traditions and modern Christmas customs, diving into the origins of Christmas and its connections to Saturnalian and Pagan practices.
Lara highlights the advanced ancient structures aligned with the winter solstice, showcasing humanity’s historical connection to the stars and seasons. She also explains the behavior of the sun during the winter solstice and its symbolic relationship to our lives.
Lara discusses the inspiration and setup of her 13 Holy Nights Oracle Deck (soon to be the 13 Sacred Nights Oracle). She shares her creative process and the intention behind this beautiful tool for spiritual connection and guidance.
Learn about Lara’s unique healing method that blends qigong with neurogenic tension and trauma-releasing tremor work. She unpacks how this innovative practice helps release trauma and cultivate deeper physical and emotional healing through intentional movement.
