Spiritual Chill Pill#033: Lessons On Love (ft. Teza Lord)Love is very difficult to define because it can be a verb but it can also be a noun. We can have love for others, pets, places, ourselves, etc, and all this can mean different things. Love can be beautiful but the constant search for love (specially outside ourselves) can become a very overwhelming. Sometimes, some people become enraptured with the idea of finding love in another person, mainly because this is where society told us happiness lies in, but also because being completely focused on someone else distracts us from our own personal issues and growth.

Spiritual Chill Pill#026: The Art Of Letting Go And The Importance Of GrievingWe have all experienced change in our lives at some point (expected or unexpected) and we have had to let go of the past to move forward towards the future. This process is called grieving and there is no other way to go past it than through the process. When grieving relationships, sometimes the process is slightly trickier because maybe we think that there are things we could have done better, or that we there are ways in which we would recuperate the relationship and not wanting to do so makes us feel guilty. We also experience a lot...

Spiritual Chill Pill#020: It’s Not You, It’s... Me? - Part IIThis week we are back with the second half of our episode about relationships! We continue discussing a new set of toxic mindsets that we have experienced in our relationships, and have caused them to eventually end. In this episode, we discuss anger as a toxic emotion when handled incorrectly, but also as a very useful emotion (when embraced the right way) as a signal that something/someone trespass our boundaries. We also discuss the fear of being alone as a very toxic mindset that exists in the collective consciousness and does not serve us anymore.

Being a witchcraft practitioner, coach, animist, environmentalist, and author of the book Witchbody, she walks us through seeing the magic and energy in all living and non-living things.

Spiritual Chill Pill#016: Intuition - Let Your Feelings Guide YouIntuition is that inner compass that everybody has that moves you towards things that are beneficial for you and away from things that can be detrimental for you. Even though everyone has this tool, from very young we learn not to listen to these gut feelings because they appear to be "irrational". Funnily enough, sometimes it is people and society that tells us this and those people that deemed us as irrational or emotional more often than not are people who would not benefit in us actioning upon those emotions. So how can we free ourselves from that and...

Spiritual Chill Pill#015: Empowerment Through ForgivenessWhat does it mean to forgive a person or a situation? Some people look at forgiveness as accepting the situation, absolving a person and/or renouncing control. Some people decide not to forgive and instead hold grudges that in the long term become unhealthy. However, this doesn't have to be the only way. Forgiveness can instead be a tool of empowerment. We regain control about how we feel about a particular person or a situation and integrate the lessons that this encounter has brought to us. Of course, we acknowledge this is also one of the hardest things to...

Spiritual Chill Pill#014: Healing Through Yoga With Kat Owens (she/her)Yoga is an ancient practice that has been imported into the Western World for many years already as a way to cultivate our feelings of well-being. However, the yoga teachings go much deeper than a single form of cultivating physical capabilities. It is a form of healing for individuals as well as society. The sad truth is that some of the depth of the yoga teachings is lost in western societies due to the resistance to bringing spirituality to the forefront and the lack of inclusion and diversity.

Spiritual Chill Pill#010: Feeling Guilty? Don't!Guilt is an emotion that a lot of people have experienced at some point in their lives. In simple terms, it's the feeling that we deserve blame and maybe even punishment. However, spiritual teachings show us that this feeling has no actual benefit and it's a symptom of separation. There is no point in regretting or blaming ourselves for what happened since, at every single point in time, we always acted as best as we could with the knowledge that we had.We have been talking in past episodes briefly about this feeling and...

By accepting our humanness, we understand ourselves better and learn to love ourselves more.

Spiritual Chill Pill#008: When The Hardest Person To Love Is YourselfThere is a lot of talk about self-love out there, but the concept still feels foreign to many people. What does loving yourself mean? Sometimes it's easy to confuse self-indulgence with self-love. We allow ourselves to carry on behaviors just because "they feel good" instead of analyzing if they are right for us. We are critical of ourselves to an extent we would never be to others. We care for other people, but we don't take care of ourselves. We put ourselves last. That's how we become the hardest person to love in our lives.

Spiritual Chill Pill#006: The Labels We Apply To Ourselves (Understanding The Ego)The ego rules our conscious mind. Among many things, it loves to latch onto labels that give meaning and validation to the individual. For example, we might identify as a wise, young, educated, a person of color, etc. However, the question is how beneficial are these labels for us? How much are we missing out on understanding other people's perspectives? Are we applying these labels to ourselves to feel superior over others and to validate ourselves? In this episode, we discuss personal examples of how our egoic minds search for attachment to concepts that v...

Therefore we incessantly go through the path of self-development trying to “heal” and become something or somebody ideal, never feeling like we are there!We explore the fact that the key is perspective and understanding that we are already deserving and good enough.

Most people out there are trying to teach us new things, but fewer people are talking about the struggles that come with the journey. The tendency is to hide the struggles from others and show the best of our lives. However, the most beautiful and enlightening conversations happen in private among friends, where we shared the naked truth about ourselves, and we learn from each other. We wanted to share these honest private conversations in a more public forum, hoping others...
