The Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastIt's Officially Eclipse Season ✨✨✨We've officially begun eclipse season, with the Aquarius North Node eclipse happening February 17th, followed by a South Node eclipse in Virgo on March 3rd. What happens during and around eclipses are consequential events: endings, beginnings and often curve balls can take us by surprise. The Astrology surrounding this moment is also very engaging, with the personal planets all squaring Uranus, leading up to the eclipse, and a Mercury retrograde in Pisces starting in-between. During this time A LOT can shift.It's a good time to be aware, choose wisely, and wrap up...

2024-07-2302 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastA Powerful and Uplifting Full Moon in Sagittarius WeekThis week is probably one of the most powerful weeks of the year. We've got illuminating aspects to Neptune and Pluto by the Sun, and a VERY mystical/bountiful Full moon in Sagittarius on May 23rd. Then, Jupiter transitions to Gemini for a full year, the day that Venus trines Pluto.
This week really is not to be missed! Tune in, wake up, and use these energies to the fullest. It's a very powerful week.

2024-05-2227 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastPreparing for Eclipse season!It's over a month away, but eclipse season is fast approaching. We have a Lunar Eclipse in Libra March 25, and a Solar Eclipse in Aries April 8th.
Eclipses bring endings and beginnings often coupled with sudden and swift changes. The idea? To shake everything out of our lives that is not in alignment, to bump us back onto our highest path even if that means things crumbling to the ground.
Relationships, jobs, locations, that are not aligned with us will come into question. The Aries/Libra axis is about heading toward our self fulfillment (Aries...

The Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastGo Your Own WayWith the shift into the Aquarian Age comes a new narrative. We are departing from a model that would put an intermediary between you and your power, your evolution, your self-realization, and total authority over your life. Unless you come from a Monarchy (the Queen is dead), we have always had to fight our way into ownership over our lives. In the past we were shamed into staying with the herd from many voices that would convince us we could not survive on our own. Belonging to tribe is basic to our nature and survival instincts. But as "God"...
2022-09-1537 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastWhere is your Blindspot? An Astrological Dive...Have you ever had your natal chart read? Wait...What is a natal chart??
This episode is about the benefit of having your astrological natal chart read. Whew! This is one of my FAVORITE topics. Your natal chart is a snapshot of the sky the moment you took your first breath. It includes where the planets fall in the zodiacal wheel, in houses of development and in archetypal signs, rendering a translation of your very nature to be seen, understood, and loved.
I love breaking down this information for newbies and seasoned astro fans alike. I have gained so much so...

The Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastSearching for PranaIf you are feeling dull, funky, bad, depressed, anxious, angry, or anything other than awesome, you are lacking PRANA. Prana is the sanskrit word for "life force" and is our natural inherent vitality. When we have illness of any kind, when our elements (earth, water, fire, air, ether) are significantly imbalanced, we will experience a difficulty in accessing our Prana. Life force, also synonymous with "breath", is in all of us if we are alive. Our life force needs to be rekindled, fueled, stoked and nurtured in order for us to feel alive if we are feeling sick, bad or...
2022-06-3036 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastWhat Do You Want?In this episode I talk about the importance of figuring out what you really want in this life so you can get there!
We are up against so many obstacles, in our internal narratives, as well as what society teaches us about our potential and capacity. Believing in yourself and defining what you want can really be our best investment. I fully understand this struggle, as I continue to refine and define my goals and know how difficult it can be when we are unable to fully choose the direction we wish to go. You are not...
2022-05-2629 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastOur Spir(itu)al PathAcknowledging that life is a journey is often synonymous with being on a "spiritual path". Today I was looking at the word "spiritual" and saw that the word "spiral" is embedded inside. What does it mean to be on a "spiral path"? Many traditions call our lives a "spiral path", and in this episode I use the wisdom of astrology to illustrate how we are indeed living inside of a spiral: specifically the spiraling that happens as the planets rotate year after year like clockwork around the solar system.
If you have been curious about a more...

2022-05-0531 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul Podcast"Entering the Mind" with C von Hassett & Rachel Reid WilkieToday I have a special episode, an interview with author C von Hassett, and his wife and partner in all things, Rachel Reid Wilkie. We discuss C von's new book, Entering the Mind, available through Amazon as well as on their website, www.enteringthemind.com. In this book, Hassett introduces the reader to the ancient Tibetan Buddhist meditation practice, Dzogchen. An exploration of his journey in engaging with this practice for several decades, Hassett "enables you to travel the inner path to this place of non-duality using the practices that have freed him from what most people still experience...
2022-04-271h 24The Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastHow Many Planets are in our Solar System?Today...I needed to go light. My chosen topic for today, Astrology, is a big topic, and my first attempt at recording cut me off long before I realized what had happened! So, I decided to scrap the plan and just share a cute little song I found on youtube about the planets. You can find it here.
Sadly enough, this cute video oversimplifies things to the tune of leaving out important information ...namely that we have other small planets (like Pluto, Ceres and Chiron) that still do not get a seat at the table. Interestingly, the t...
2022-04-2014 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastFollowing the Thread...Moving from Pattern to Right ActionHow can we discern what is a pattern and what is right action? The key teaching "Let things come to you" can help you do the revolutionary work of self-care and tending to your life, while being open to the blessings the universe will bestow. Often times we move forward with a pattern of self-sabotage, either because of the way we think, act or engage in life that comes directly from our wounding. It is revolutionary to be mindful, slow, tactful and to wait. Do you have the capacity to slow your roll so that you can make better...
2022-04-1423 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastSeeing Through the "Metaverse"What are your thoughts on the incoming technological machine termed the "Metaverse"? This virtual reality is coming for us. I am all for evolution, but there are serious consequences to increasing our technological involvement at the expense of our humanity, our bodies, our hearts and our access to human connection. As part of my podcast on these Aquarian Times, I wanted to speak out about my view of this in order to raise awareness of our need to keep it real.

Every new moon is a time for new beginnings, according to the details of where the new moon is happening in the map of the zodiac. This new moon is power packed, creating a stellium (multi-planet line-up) in the sign of Aries. During this energetic transmission, the moon will be conjunct the Sun, Mercury and the minor planet (Yep, I looked it up!), Chiron. I talk about what each of these planets signify in the podcast, and how, since Chiron signifies the "...
2022-03-3138 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastHow to not Pass on Your Trauma to the People Around YouThis is an important episode breaking down how we can prevent ourselves from passing down our trauma to the people in our lives (or animals, plants and inanimate objects :).
First, we must become aware of our wounds by educating ourselves and naming them. We must understand how our wounding shows up in our lives and how it affects our ability to thrive. Then we must be able to see how our trauma affects the people in our lives. Can you see yourself through their eyes? We must learn not to project our trauma, programming, and ideas about...
2022-03-2433 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastHandling the "Upgrades"We are all familiar with "upgrades" in our lives: in our jobs, homes, relationships, etc. But the bulk of this episode I address what it means to have upgrades in our consciousness. This is not something people readily talk about or admit to, as it is understandably a "private" area of our lives. But the truth is, upgrades in our consciousness can be destabilizing, and it is important to have something to compare it to, as in the testimony of another person. It's a shame that "mental health" is such a taboo topic. We are all experiencing shifts, sometimes...
2022-03-1636 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastAre You on the Right Path?How do you know if you are "on the right path"? This episode is about how to approach the answer to that question. I talk about the yogic system of the "Kosha's", or five Sheaths, and how to discern if we are in our lower or our higher mind which will determine our ability to make better choices. I also talk about the importance of intention to help steer you on your path, and how designing routines and practices specific to our needs can help keep us in our best alignment, therefore ensuring smoother and more cohesive experiences and c...

2022-03-0300 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastRemembering What Truly MattersI am publishing a few days early this week! This episode is a tour of exploring our ability to get in touch with what matters: when we consider our age, maturation level, and other factors that would keep us from being able to think and act on what truly matters, we can understand that there is a spectrum and reasons why many people are not even fully capable of this task. BUT, you can be one who is working to come into your highest alignment so that you can truly be in touch and serve what really matters. In...

On the heels of yesterday's BONUS episode, we have a wonderful topic, an antidote of sorts to all things wonky: SELF LOVE.
Today I have a guest, Empowerment coach, Michele Hooey on the podcast to talk about the Self Love Journey. This is a wonderful topic that acts as healing salve to all wounds. We explore Michele's personal story, why self love is so necessary, practical tips on how to practice it, and how to love yourself along the way, knowing that this is a journey.

2022-02-2250 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastBonus Episode! Heading Towards the Epicenter: The Pluto Return 2/22/22Oops this is episode 78!
This is a bonus episode that came knocking at my door and needed to be shared. A few months back I published an episode (#65) about the Pluto Return. Well, it happens to be upon us! ....tomorrow...in fact! So, once again, I was awoken in the middle of the night and asked to share this information with YOU. I hope it is helpful. These are major transits, in majorly transformational times, and yes, I am here to help in any way possible make the journey easier by sharing what I know, have studied...
2022-02-2218 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastTwo Divergent Paths: Numinous Vs. CessativeToday I have a rather scholarly topic for you. I like making these big questions available and digestible. Even if we are not consciously thinking about these things, they are working on us collectively and subconsciously: woven into the fabric of our very humanity, our ancestry, our history. Talking about, discussing and naming big things helps us understand the water we are swimming in. So, that is my offering for you this week. I hope it is interesting, stimulating and helps you digest some unconscious material that may be working you.
My website is back up at www.juliabernbaum.com. I...

2022-02-0912 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul Podcast"Postmodern Yoga", a conversation with J. BrownThis week I have a special guest on the podcast, long time East Coast based yoga teacher J. Brown. J. has been in the game for several decades, and caught the western yoga wave right as it crested in the 90's and Early 2000's. He had his own studio in Brooklyn for ten years, and now runs programs from his home in Pennsylvania. I started listening to J.'s podcast a few months ago and really like how he "vulnerably" shares about his life and perspectives so transparently. I wanted to have him on to talk about where the yoga...
2022-02-031h 07The Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastEmbracing What's UncomfortableHey There, This episode is a call to face uncomfortable situations so that we can get more comfortable in them. I talk about the difference between being uncomfortable and "discomfort" (a personal definition), how to know if you should take a risk (is it time, or are you in a healing phase?), and how to get more present in a situation that makes you want to run. If you are feeling ready to try some new things, and comb out some of your "tangles", this episode may be helpful for you. We are all facing challenges to up our...
2022-01-2727 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastBe Responsible for your JoyJoy can be a journey for some. If you experience anxiety, depression and other negative symptoms, joy may feel very foreign to you.
In this podcast, I walk us through the steps from being unable to access to joy, to being able to clear the space to welcome it in again. Feeling numb? Don't know if you are angry? Please, have a listen. You will gain some tools to identify and name some of these states, and be able to shift to a more positive state of mind and body. You can reach me at www.juliabernbaum...
2022-01-2036 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastHow Covid-19 is Supporting our EvolutionOk. Don't just scroll by. Please, have a listen..
In this episode I talk about the yogic idea of one-pointed focus (choosing a non-dual perspective) when it comes to Covid-19, as well as how this collective experience is really a rite of passage. I outline the three stages of any Rite of Passage: The Threshold, The Ordeal, and The Incorporation, and how we are absolutely in the thick of one. I hope you learn something new, and that this podcast helps you make more sense of, and accept this ordeal we are all in. I am not trying to be...
2022-01-1231 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastLoving YourselfHey, thanks for having a listen today.
This week I am talking about self-love: the path to your highest fulfillment.
In order to follow our true desires, we must love ourself. We must trust our authentic needs in order to pursue them, and to become the person we truly are. Conforming, fitting in, and essentially betraying ourself will only lead us to misery. We must learn to love that mysterious self inside that knows what it wants. Can you do this?
I offer six guidelines to keep the self-love flowing:

2021-12-2932 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastTrust the ProcessToday I am riffing off a conversation I had during a Tarot reading last night, and a quote in an Alan Watts lecture I came across: "You can not transform yourself". It is such a time of massive change (Aquarian Times) and it helps to lean into wisdom to remind us what our modern culture works so hard to distract us from...that you are an evolving soul inside a story of time immemorial..
And if you know this, you can start to let go of that desperate grasp onto the micro perspective of your individual life...
2021-12-2336 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastThe Importance of Place: Prakruti Vs. VikrutiHi There, Today I have an episode where I unpack the Ayurvedic concepts of Prakruti and Vikruti. These are sanskrit words that are integral in the system of Ayurveda, the East Indian "Science of Life". First I wanted to emphasize that what we believe may be a fallacy, and that through leaning on ancient wisdom we can begin to decipher truth from falsity. This is important in our modern world where many opinions are flying around and it's hard to know what is real, and good advice. The best way to know is to check in with yourself, but...
2021-12-1627 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastMeditation on Impermanence & Alliance with Higher SelfIn this podcast, I offer a short meditation on acknowledging our impermanence, as well as committing to a deeper relationship with the part of us that does not change, that we can always hold on to.
Take a moment to get quiet and go inward to meet your inner/higher self where you can cultivate deeper trust, respect, truce and connection.
We will be with ourselves for the entire journey, and by befriending ourselves we can ensure a smoother ride.

2021-12-0916 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastClearing KarmaIn this episode I wanted to clarify an issue I spoke about in Ep. 65, about clearing karma. In the yogic tradition, Karma is not punishment, but an accumulation of data that we carry. We need to understand what it is, why it is there, and how to work with it to begin to release ourselves from these patterns. Please reach out for more information at www.juliabernbaum.com. I offer life and wellness coaching, yogic guidance, and tarot readings. Thank you for tuning in!
2021-12-0222 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastPreparing for the United States of America's Pluto ReturnTonight I felt the need to let the podcast be improvisational. I recorded ten minutes, was interrupted by the phone, and then finished the episode later in the evening. I did not know what I would be talking about until it came through...the fact that we are heading for the Pluto return for the United States in 2024. According to some astrologers, we really begin the return in 2022...just over a month away. I was feeling something being shaken up the past few days, and then opened my channel to let this podcast come through. I believe this information...

2021-11-1138 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastHow to Spot Sabotaging BehaviorsFor this episode I came up with a long list of covert and overt behaviors you may experience or encounter in your relationships that are actually actively sabotaging you. It is my experience that the current world of psychology is finally outing the toxic behaviors that cause some of the mental health symptoms many of us experience. Our mental health is affected by our environment, including the people in our lives. If we are at the effect of negative, toxic treatment and behavior, we will suffer, often because we are manipulated to believe that we are the one with the...
2021-11-0449 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastRejection is ProtectionWhat's going on when things aren't quite working out? This episode is about recognizing that what does not come to you is not meant for you. Often times we get used to expecting things that are less than what we deserve. When things don't work out, or we face a rejection, this is actually a protection from what is not in our best interest. I share some personal up-to-date struggles that I'm having to illustrate the point in our journey when it's time we turn to face what we REALLY want. What's meant for you is waiting for you...
2021-10-2725 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastViolence Begins in Your MindThis episode is filled with teachings on the subtle body. From an elemental perspective, I talk about the mind/body manifestation process from the gross to the subtle using teachings from the Tarot as well as Ayurvedic elemental theory. Understand how all things begin in the "Pranic" layer: mental & emotional realms and move into the physical. Often times things can be more harmful in their subtle form, as they are more difficult to detect or name. I hope this episode is helpful in understanding all the nuances of what we create, and how to become more aware and responsible...
2021-10-2141 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastUnderstanding AnxietyI'm podcasting about anxiety to help those who experience it and those who don't to understand it better. These are just a few thoughts on this VAST and important topic, from one who has experienced, researched, and actively works to remedy anxiety. The hardest part about anxiety, in my opinion, is the shaming, judgement and bullying that goes on around it. If anything, my hope is to spread more education and awareness with this podcast so that we can love each other better and be kinder to one another. We are the ones that can heal this world and...
2021-10-1431 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastQuantum DetanglementThis is a topic I personally feel is very important to understand, be aware of, and take seriously. If you are looking for root causes, this is high on the list. We are all in a process of evolution, and that evolution is bringing us back into our SELF: our Sovereignty. Until we really understand this, we will continue to experience the pain and suffering of attachment and aversion. These are Buddhist teachings that are applicable and accessible to us all. I hope you glean something useful from this episode. You can find me at www.juliabernbaum.com. I...

2021-09-3036 minThe Highly Sensitive Soul PodcastEverybody HurtsI have been thinking a lot about our collective struggles...especially since Covid, the year where we all got to experience a trauma together. Since our "bounce back" from this time, I have been noticing that when our attention continues to be on our individual health (although yes, we must focus there as well) we continue to suffer. It is a big topic, how much do we give and how much must we self-preserve? The truth is, it can be solved through our ATTITUDE. Can we be kind? Can we acknowledge that we all suffer, and have low points...

I hope this episode helps you recognize the importance of grief, being still, and waiting when the direction of action is not perfectly clear. Embracing our humanity means acknowledging the dark and the light. If we do not hold both, we will live a fragmented existence.
