 How To Embrace Change and Use Resistance As Our Ally | Featuring Heather Ivany

How To Embrace Change and Use Resistance As Our Ally | Featuring Heather Ivany

I'm joined this week by Heather Ivany, renowned holistic practitioner teaching yoga, meditation, and Akashic reading. Heather has been offering private and public classes, workshops, and retreats for over 20 years.

Heather had a career as a firefighter when she decided to teach herself yoga by reading The Woman’s Book of Yoga and Health by Linda Sparrowe. She went on to yoga teacher training in Victoria, B.C. The study of yoga has helped Heather to develop a softer, more feminine side of herself, contrasting with the more masculine energy she cultivated before.

Heather has become popular for saying that we can use resistance constructively as our ally. All of us have blind spots and can be susceptible to being swayed by resistance. Heather points out that resistance is tough to rationalize with and believes that the best way to deal with resistance is to create an intention that is more powerful than resistance.

Along with ways to deal with resistance, Heather will share the routines and nonnegotiables that keep her centered and aligned with her purpose.

In this episode, we will discuss:

  • Heather’s journey from firefighter to holistic practitioner and yoga teacher
  • How we can embrace change and use resistance as our ally
  • What resistance reveals to us
  • How energy works “The degree to which resistance is presenting itself is the degree to which the opportunity of change is available to you”
  • The power of intention
  • How resistance continues to fight change
  • Akashic records: How to identify and align with your soul’s purpose
  • How Heather keeps intention at the forefront of her mind

Heather's mentorship program, Unlocking You, combines innovative methods to help individuals connect to their higher self, align with their soul's purpose, and stay on track even when they are being swayed. The four-month program starts on April 14th. Heather also offers private programs year-round.

More information about Heather’s programs can be found on her website: https://www.heatherivany.com

Top 3 Mind-Blowing Concepts I learned After Attending Tony Robbins “Unleash The Power Within & Business Mastery” - You need to know about

Top 3 Mind-Blowing Concepts I learned After Attending Tony Robbins “Unleash The Power Within & Business Mastery” - You need to know about

Today I am so excited to share with you the top three things I learned from attending Tony Robbins’ live event: Unleash the Power Within & Business Mastery! I truly believe it can really shift your point of view, can help you create a breakthrough, and possibly save you tons of time, and even thousands of dollars! 1- Importance of your State: The number one thing that Tony Robbins talks about is how important your state is. Tony Robbins’ philosophy is that everything starts with your state. Everything starts with your physiology, how you feel, how you are standing, how you breathe because that state creates that momentum that will give you the fuel to take motivated action! 2- The Personal Story: The story is the personal narrative, it often keeps us from finding the keys that can help us be most effective and transform the quality of our life. If you ever find yourself in a low state, think of what you're grateful for and feel it in your heart, put yourself into a good state and then go crush your goals. Get yourself in a better state first and then replace the old story with a more empowering story! 3- The New Strategy: The third and most important thing is a new strategy. How do I get to that result? Implement a new strategy! No more trial and error, instead look for human resources, talk to experts, take that class; figure out what they're doing that makes them be on top of their game. Take that recipe that you've learned implement it in your life and then go get the results that you want. There is so much to learn from Tony Robbins and from his books and workshops. Since attending in person, my wife and I are continuing his course in business mastery virtually. I am glad I get to share it with you. I hope you enjoy this episode. Thank you for listening. Wishing you the best of health, Gunny Sodhi ----- If you enjoyed, please subscribe, comment, share, and like! It truly means the world to us and helps us spread the word!

Why having an “ALWAYS BE LEARNING” mindset can separate you from everyone else!

Why having an “ALWAYS BE LEARNING” mindset can separate you from everyone else!

In today’s episode of the Balanced Being Podcast, I want to talk about two concepts that stayed with me after attending an orthodontic conference called Orthoprenuers, I attended with my wife.

Here are two concepts that resonated with me:

  1. Robin Sharma uses the abbreviation ABL (Always Be Learning). And this is the first concept that I want to share. People have the capacity to keep on learning even if they are making enough money and are successful. So, invest your time to learn a new skill and evolve.
  2. The concept of proximity resonance: You become the average of five people you surround yourself with. These people challenge you, think big, get the results you want, and are doing something substantial with their lives.
  • When you put yourself around such people you will feel uncomfortable and change the way you have been doing things.
  • It will force you to think differently.
  • It will force you to take massive action.

If you can do these three correctly, you will become the average of all these five. So, think about the five people you are around, and if they are helping you push yourself to achieve your goals. Share your goals with them and see if they support you or hold you down.

I hope you enjoy this episode. Thank you for listening.

Wishing you the best of health,

Gunny Sodhi.

If today was your last day, how do you want to be remembered?

If today was your last day, how do you want to be remembered?

In today’s episode of “Balanced Being Podcast”, I want to share my experience with a very interesting workshop by Robin Sharma. I attended this training session and at the end of it, he asked the attendees to do something very fascinating. He asked us to think about the last day of our lives and how we would want to be remembered. This question was not meant to set a somber mood but to really make us think!

So, I thought I should talk about it in today’s episode.

  1. When it is the last day of your life, how do you want to be remembered?
  2. Work backward and determine the personality traits you want to inculcate and how do you want to use them to help others?
  3. Undertake this exercise by writing down or just thinking about it.
  4. It will help you get perspective, think about things that matter, and remove those that don’t.
  5. Once you have written this down, you can act upon it.

Having practiced this myself, I can testify that it is an impactful exercise and will prove extremely helpful to you. I hope you enjoy this episode.

Have you ever had the thought, “I don’t deserve success”? Many people do, and many of us navigate life with this belief stuck in our subconscious. Dr. Alison is a master at addressing this kind of negative self-talk that sets us back and prevents us from reaching our true potential and having the life we desire.

Dr. Alison believes that the field of Psychology can often be too problem-focused and that people get stuck living a life they don’t want to live because of their self-defeating patterns of victimizing themselves and holding illogical, child-like beliefs that they somehow are not good enough or worthy of success.

In this episode, Dr. Alison will share how she helps people disrupt their illogical thinking that sets them back from being the person they want to be using energy healing. We will talk about mind and body energy healing and how energy healing can be applied to every function of the human body.

In this episode I will share with you:

  • Dr. Alison’s interesting journey to where she is at now
  • Dr. Alison’s secrets to upgrade, inspire and disrupt old paradigms
  • How and why energy work works to heal people
  • How to stop your self-defeating and self-sabotaging patterns
  • Why many people are “more afraid of their light than their dark”
  • How to interrupt self-defeating patterns and step into your power
  • How Dr. Alison uses conditioning, clearing, and activation to help people level up their lives

If you’re ready to manifest the life you want to live or are just interested in finding out what could be possible, this episode is a good place to start.

The Power of Feeling Into Gratitude

The Power of Feeling Into Gratitude

What is the meaning of feeling gratitude and why is it important to be thankful for everything we have. On today's podcast, I'll talk about a small shift that I did in my gratitude practice, that made a huge difference to how I feel and even how I manifest my goals. 

The secret, in my opinion, revolves around "honing" in on the feeling of gratitude and not only thinking about it but truly feeling grateful and seeing if you can carry that throughout the day. 

Here are some of the things which I discuss:

  • The big difference between "feeling" grateful and only "thinking" about it.
  • How a daily gratitude practice can make you bullet-proof against life's daily challenges.
  • How it is so much easier to manifest and create from a place of gratitude as your foundation and how it can be looked at as a "cheat code" to manifest quicker..........and so much more.

Understanding Trauma and How to Begin to Heal Featuring - Dr. Guy Macpherson

Understanding Trauma and How to Begin to Heal Featuring - Dr. Guy Macpherson

Today we are joined by trauma specialist Dr. Guy MacPherson. With a doctorate in clinical psychology, Dr. McPherson runs the Trauma Therapist Project, Trauma Therapist Podcast, and Trauma Therapist 2.0 Program. His work provides resources to clinicians and therapists who want to provide trauma informed care to their clients. We’ll discuss how you can use his techniques to shift trauma in your own life.

Here is what we discussed:

  1. Guy always wanted to help others, but didn’t know exactly how. At age 26 he received a phone call that changed his life. Weeks later he found himself in the Utah desert, and then went back to school to follow his new found passion.
  2. Delivering trauma informed care is personal for Guy. His own brother, a Navy Seal, experienced PTSD. Watching his brother go through such a difficult experience further encouraged him to learn about trauma and how to heal from it.
  3. Healing trauma begins with acknowledging it, but the process looks different for everyone. Finding a support system and the right therapist are key components to healing.
  4. Since trauma resides in the body, talk therapy alone may not be enough. Getting to know one’s body and learning to self-regulate is crucial to healing.

Wishing you the best of health & thanks for listening!

Overcoming Sleep Disorders with Ayurveda

Overcoming Sleep Disorders with Ayurveda

Today I want to discuss the importance of sleep through an Ayurvedic lens. Interestingly, Ayurveda considers sleep to be one of the “Three Pillars of Life,” accompanying proper digestion and appropriate sexual activity. Despite how important sleep is for our minds and bodies, many of us experience sleep disturbances or disorders, impeding our ability to get sufficient quality sleep.

According to Ayurveda, sleep disorders are primarily vata disorders, and worry and anxiety can easily disturb one’s sleep. Disturbed pitta can also play a role in causing sleep disturbances.

Ayurveda emphasizes a healthy lifestyle, which includes maintaining healthy routines for beginning one’s day, but creating and maintaining healthy bedtime routines is equally important.

If you’re someone that does not wake up feeling rested, it may be time to take an audit of your sleep and consider implementing some of the recommendations from Ayurveda that I will delve into in this episode.

In this episode I will share with you:

  • Healthy bedtime routines for optimal sleep, including what you should be doing approximately one hour before your head hits the pillow
  • How cortisol (stress hormone) impacts your sleep and soothing rituals that can promote relaxation
  • The importance of maintaining a consistent bed and wake time, and the most ideal sleep schedule according to Ayurveda
  • How the food you consume and when you consume it impacts your sleep, plus suggestions for foods that can promote quality sleep
  • I will also share what I do before bedtime to relax and promote a good night’s sleep.
  • I hope this information reaches you well and that you were able to take something from this episode to apply to your routine. It’s all about balance.

The Mind: Your Best Friend or Your Worst Enemy! You Get To Decide Through Your Own Discipline.

The Mind: Your Best Friend or Your Worst Enemy! You Get To Decide Through Your Own Discipline.

Today I want to talk about an interesting concept that I pondered over the weekend. It was that our minds can be our worst enemy or our best friend. It is discipline that keeps both sides leveled. Instill discipline that allows what impacts you and what you must ignore. This will help break the pattern that is stopping you from achieving what you want.

This is what I cover:

  • Ask yourself why you want to achieve a certain goal?
  • You have the power to let your mind be your best advocate or have it turn against you.
  • How to incorporate the discipline to check yourself and be aware of the kind of energy you are giving into.
  • Focus on the goals you had set for yourself and work on achieving them by staying focused.

I hope you enjoy today’s episode of the ‘The Balanced Being Podcast’.

The Power of The Present Moment

The Power of The Present Moment

Today I want to share with you the lesson I learned last week about the power of the present movement. Due to the unexpected weather in Texas we were unable to return home as planned and in that moment I was reminded to trust the universe, the higher power to guide me and be in the present moment.

This is what I cover:

  • How important it is being in the moment.
  • How to divert your mind and experience peace.
  • Being grateful for the present moment as that is truly all we have

As a note here is the serenity Prayer: “God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.”

Wishing you the best of health,

How I Overcame Jealousy & Learned to Live in My True State of Prosperity & Abundance.

How I Overcame Jealousy & Learned to Live in My True State of Prosperity & Abundance.

I want to begin today’s episode by sharing something that happened over the weekend. An MBA friend of mine was sharing how well his career was going. As much as I was happy for him, I realized that part of me was filled with jealousy. This was a strange feeling for me as this was a friend who I supported fully and who I knew would support me as well. While this is very personal for me, I am sharing because by uncovering things like this, we can learn from each other.

The jealousy did not feel good. It weighed my heart down. However, being aware of the feeling of jealousy taught me that by asking myself deep questions, I was able to get rid of the negative emotion.

The first thing I did was to recognize the emotion of jealousy. Then, I proceeded to do something about it. Doing something in this situation is asking myself a series of deep questions that shifted how I was feeling. I asked myself why I was feeling that way? Why I could not be happy for my friend from a place of pure love and admiration? The more I inquired, the more the jealousy faded and left only love, admiration and respect.

One of my mentors who teaches about energy, told me that jealousy is a human emotion that we all feel once in a while when someone shares something they have achieved. However, instead of defaulting to jealousy, he advises that we wish that person more abundance and more prosperity. We should do this because the energy we send out to the universe is the same energy we will receive. Thus, when we wish prosperity and abundance, that is what we will get back.

Asking deep questions will remove the jealousy and comparison. From my situation, I learned about the emotion of jealousy. We must decipher that we are not our thoughts or emotions but observers of them. When we do this, we will be able to let them pass through or be able to change them. This lesson and technique can apply to all negative emotions and not just jealousy, so give it a shot and experience the peace and freedom it can bring you.

Wishing you the best of health,

The Balancing Power of Gratitude Part II

The Balancing Power of Gratitude Part II

As the holidays approach us, I wanted to reconnect and focus on the power of gratitude.

What makes gratitude so special is that it can be seen as a form of meditation and can make you realize, what you take for granted, can be seen as a luxury and dream to others. Gratitude has the power to humble you and provide you perspective.

There are many ways to practice gratitude. We will go over seven scientifically proven benefits of gratitude that will motivate you to give thanks year-round.

Developing an "attitude of gratitude" is one of the simplest ways to improve your satisfaction with life- Amy Morin

 Community Is Immunity - Reveals Interesting Harvard Study

Community Is Immunity - Reveals Interesting Harvard Study

Today we will take a look at a Harvard study that states, “Embracing community helps us live longer and happier and could be a greater measure of overall happiness and health than even our genes.”

The study begins by tracking the health of 268 Harvard sophomores in 1938 during the great depression. These individuals were followed for nearly 80 years!! The study was led by Robert Waldinger, director of the study, a psychiatrist at Massachusetts General Hospital and a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.

This is what I share from the study:

  • The importance of tending to your relationships.
  • How the quality of relationships can positively impact your health, immunity and stress levels.
  • The true key to healthy aging.
  • How all of this connects to Ayurveda.

“The surprising finding is that our relationships and how happy we are in our relationships has a powerful influence on our health,” - Robert Waldinger

How to Naturally Overcome Grief

How to Naturally Overcome Grief

Today my guest is Jasmin Jenkins who I share the very deep theme of grief with. Jasmin is an Integrative Grief Guide and is the founder of Fall Up. Many people who have experienced loss still have a hard time processing grief, understanding what grief means and what it does to the body and how to get over it and more importantly, honor it.

Jasmin experienced loss when she lost her mother and brother. Jasmin lost her mother, when she was 15 and her brother's sudden death 10 years later shook her to the core. Since then she has been on a very intentional healing journey but, “there was always a layer that was still choking on”, only a few years ago she found peace and once she was actively integrating with grief and healing is when she found her unique path of service as an Integrative Grief Guide. And it was through healing herself of her grief that she arrived at the place where she knew that she was meant to serve others in their healing.

This is what we discuss in depth:

  • Why are we not properly taught to grieve?
  • What happens to the body and mind when you experience grief?
  • The Four Invitations method around grief

Jasmin offers grief guidance services through her company Fall Up—a community built on healing conversations and authentic connections, rooted in the understanding that through shared experiences and non-judgmental listening to others working through grief, we return to and heal parts of ourselves.

About Jasmin - 

Jasmin Jenkins is an Integrative Grief Guide and the founder of Fall Up, a community created to support people navigating the spectrum of grief. In her work, she brings her clients into the invitations within their grief journeys. Jasmin believes that healing is a co-creative process, and it is her deepest joy to support each person she works with in welcoming grief as a profound invitation to transformation.

The Healing Power of Breathwork

The Healing Power of Breathwork

Today my guest Aditya Jaykumar who goes by A.J. is someone who shares my desire to spread the knowledge of healing.

AJ’s journey started at an early age; he grew up seeing spirituality as a whole and not being restricted to one way of thinking; he was encouraged to be open and ask questions by his parents and this was the seed that led him to start his spiritual journey.

During his adolescence he had a motorcycle accident that changed his perspective of life. It was one of the ways the universe wanted him to awaken because he was forced to think of his identity. Later on in life he came across chakra visualization and through it he experienced healing and he thought “if this is possible in 10 minutes what else is out there.” This led him to start his own podcast, My Seven Chakras.

AJ is a certified Breathwork instructor and he loves using ancient Yogic breathing practices (Pranayama) with rhythmical brainwave music and guided journeying to help people calm their mind, relax their nervous system, experience deep states of bliss and ultimately discover their life's purpose.

This is what we discuss in depth:

  • The practice of meditation and how it can help you discover your life's purpose
  • How breathwork can calm your mind & relax your nervous system quickly
  • Yogic breath techniques & approaches

The power of the breath is endless, it's free, it's available anytime and the benefits are instant.

Thanks for listening!
