In Any Lifetime
By Renee Wilkinson and Murray Smith


Lessons from Murray's Solitary Confinement
We're back for another good ole car chat! In this episode of the In Any Lifetime podcast, Murray tells a part of his story that you may not have heard before – at one point during his time in jail (more on that in our very first podcast episode, 'Meet Murray'), Murray spent two weeks in solitary confinement.
Murray shares in this episode how his experience in solitary confinement created mental & emotional resilience, as well as a reminder of the fact that you, too, are capable of creating great change.
Ready to commit to your great change? Explore Spiritus Breathwork & Somatic Healing in a 1:1 Session with Murray, where he'll hold the space for you to open, unravel, understand & release what's holding you back.

Ep 59: Step Two – Mindset
In our last episode, Renee spoke about the importance of learning to truly listen as your first step toward self and spiritual development. In this episode of the In Any Lifetime podcast, Murray shares, from his experience as a somatic breathwork facilitator, the one thing that creates the greatest, long-lasting change: step two – mindset.
Breathwork is a potent tool for releasing and resolving – but first, you need to address your mindset.
Before we can dive into the past, delve into those unconscious parts of ourselves and release what is keeping us stuck there, we must deal with the present.
And we begin by becoming aware – so Murray shares some simple tips and tricks in this episode to start exploring this mindset awareness for yourself.

Ep 58: Step One – Listen
In this episode of the In Any Lifetime podcast, Renee drops in to share some of the wisdom she's gained from the past few decades of practicing, sharing and teaching spiritual practices – and how, at the very foundations of it all, is the power of being able to listen.
Whether you're diving deep into your spiritual development by tuning into your intuition, talking to your guides, channelling, or meditating, listening is the very first skill to master.
Listen in as Renee shares how to truly start to listen. And not just with your ears, but by opening to receive that inner voice, your body, your gut, and the energy and synchronicities of life and the Universe around you.
If you want to tune into the flow of life: learn to listen.
... And then join Renee:
- in the Sunquncha On-Demand platform (full of Renee's meditations & channellings, and with different tiers to meet you at the depth you're willing to dive)
- at Sunquncha Temple for Spirit School or Initiation (where you'll really dial up the volume on your inner guidance & inherent desires)

Ep 57: Forever a Learner with the Perfect Mentor
In this episode of the In Any Lifetime podcast, Renee shares a story from her career in film and TV that highlights the importance of mentors – and how seeking mentorship is about so much more than personal development or spiritual improvement.
Mentors are the people who shorten the gap between where you are right now and where you want to be. And they are truly invaluable... when you make the most of them!
Listen in as Renee and Murray talk about finding the perfect mentor for you and about how showing up as a learner will allow you to make the most of that mentorship.

When we reach our limits, we reach how far we've learned to hold. This meditation will support you to increase your capacity to hold – more life, more experience.

Using the breath and visualisation, join Renée as she guides you to expand your capacity to hold. Not about doing more; this meditation will enable you to instead hold more energy and frequency – give you the ability to add more pixels to the picture to create greater definition.

Ep 56: Soul Contracts
In this episode of the In Any Lifetime podcast, Renee and Murray speak Soul Contracts.
As Renee shares a sneak peek into the mentoring she offers within Portal Openers – Sunquncha's latest Meditation Membership for those seeking guidance and support as they delve deep into the depths of their limitlessness – she touches on the concept of 'soul contracts'.
Listen in to this exploration of soul contracts: what they are, and how you can initiate conversations with your guides to better understand, and even renegotiate, your contracts – and the impact that doing so has had on Renee and Murray's own lives.

Meditation: Opening Portals to Motherhood
Join Renée for this special guided meditation designed especially for the mamas (or families), to aid you in opening portals to motherhood and calling in the energy of your spirit babies.
In several Indigenous cultures, it is believed that a mother meets the energy of her baby long before even falling pregnant; that it's not until she meets the energy of her baby that she can then call that energy into the world & allow her body to become a vessel or portal for it.
Using the breath and visualisation, join Renée as she guides you to open the portals between reality and the ether, and connect with and invite in the energy of your baby.

Ep 55: Goal Setting Support
In this episode of the In Any Lifetime podcast, Renee and Murray share their experiences of going all-in with their goal setting – and how they've made their biggest goals a reality.
We love a good goal and the New Year is famously a time for 'New Year, New Me' goal-setting... but are you actually prepared for what it takes to step into a 'new me'?
Renee and Murray speak on the big goals they've set, and share the support they've leant on to make sure they've made it through all of the bumpy "can I actually do this?" moments to achieve each one.
In this episode of the podcast, Renee and Murray delve into:

Ep 54: The Grind Unwind
In this episode of the In Any Lifetime podcast, Renee and Murray speak about their grind unwind – how they're transitioning from a 'grind' state to one of 'unwind', and what's next.
There are seasons to life: some seasons where you're head down and bum up, deep in creation and momentum; and other seasons where it is time to unwind. And, after an intense six years, Renee and Murray are ready to lean into their next season...

Meditation: Know Your Yes
Join Renée for this guided meditation to support you in utilising the power of your 'yes' as your compass to navigate this world.
With all of the distractions this modern life can bring, we tend to drift further and further ashore from the anchor that is our 'yes', leaving us second-guessing and self-doubting, and in a state of confusion and decision fatigue.
But there's potency in knowing your 'YES'. An anchor and a compass in equal measures, your ‘yes’ is your superpower.
Using the breath and visualisation, join Renée as she guides you towards refamiliarising yourself with your 'yes', and as you experience a sense of ease and flow you may have previously been missing...

Ep 53: Our Bio Hacks
In this episode of the In Any Lifetime podcast, Renee and Murray share their bio hacks – the things they personally use, based on their research and what works best for them, to support their physical bodies.
While (full disclosure!) they aren't professionals or experts in these areas of health, they are so often asked what they use and love, and where to find it – so buckle up for this car chat, and let's talk about it!
Renee and Murray are so passionate about supporting their minds, bodies and spirits to the best of their ability – and, if you're here, we think you probably are too!

Meditation: Gratitude
Join Renée for this guided gratitude meditation.
Tuning into gratitude can align you deeper with expansiveness, flow, and a general feel-good time.

Ep 52: Working One-to-One with a Straight Shooter
In this episode of the In Any Lifetime podcast, Murray shares how he uses and incorporates Breathwork in his 1:1 sessions.
Initially, Murray noticed that he was guiding people to revisit and rehash their past. While it's important to process and heal certain experiences, he found that this approach often kept individuals stuck in repetitive cycles of their 'story'.
Murray now focuses on ‘how can we get you to your goal’ and what is in the way. Murray is a straight shooter, holds nothing back and expects his clients to show up and do the work.
Click here to explore working 1:1 with Murray if you are ready to show up and do the work.

Meditation: An Introduction to Shadow Work
Join Renée for this guided meditation for Shadow Work.
In this meditation designed to assist you in integrating your shadow, you'll be guided through an exploration of what lies in your 'shadow' (P.S. it's not always 'bad stuff' – it can often be the gifts we're ignoring).
This meditation can be used as a toe-dipping, introductory exploration, or to support your current shadow work. Using the breath and visualisation, join Renée as she guides you.
Please always remember that if something is feeling intense, we recommend seeking out the assistance of a 1:1 practitioner to support you through!

Ep 51: Holding the Dark
In this episode of the In Any Lifetime Podcast, Renee and Murray invite you into their car chat about the concept of holding the dark.
In the world of New Age Spirituality, there can be a heavy focus on 'the light', but we're diving deep into the importance of getting comfortable with 'the dark' – for your own healing, and, if you're a facilitator, for holding space for others to heal, too.
Murray shares his experiences, and Renee shares some energetic practices to help you become comfortable with facing the darkness.

Using the breath and visualisation, join Renee as she guides you. And, with an open mind, let your imagination run wild and be curious about what is ready to be released...

Meditation: Releasing Soul Contracts
Join Renee in this meditation for clearing and releasing soul contracts.
There is an idea that, before our incarnation, agreements are made with other souls to ensure that we learn certain lessons in this lifetime. Once we come into our human experience, however, we may decide we want to change that up a little...
Using the breath and visualisation, join Renee as she guides you through this short but potent clearing meditation for releasing, revoking or voiding soul contracts that you feel no longer serve you. Enjoy!

Ep 49: The Art of Holding Space
In this episode of the Open Mind Space Podcast, Renee and Murray speak about the concept, act and art of holding space.
Whether it's for a loved one or as a facilitator, holding space is the act of creating a safe space – a container or bubble – for another.
There's a lot of buzz around the idea of 'holding space' right now – so Renee and Murray talk about the physical, mental, emotional, and energetic steps they take to hold space for others.

Meditation: Safe Space
Join Renee in this meditation to rediscover and return to your 'Safe Space'.
It's important to establish a safe space within your being so that you have somewhere to retreat to amidst moments of intensity or overwhelm, or a place of serene familiarity to return to after deeper meditative or healing work.

Meditation: Anchoring Back Into Your Power
Join Renee in this short meditation for calling back and reconnecting to your 'power'.
Your power is your vibration, your essence, your higher self. Sometimes we step out of our power or give it away, or it is taken from us. This practice is an opportunity to call all of your power back and anchor it into your body, allowing you to feel more present and in tune with the world around you.
Using the breath and visualisation, join Renee as she guides you through this short meditation to reclaim and anchor back into your power.

Ep 47: Initiation | Stepping into Plant Ceremonies
In this episode of the Open Mind Space Podcast, Renee and Murray share with you the intention behind their popular overnight immersion, Initiation.
Held at Sunquncha Temple, Initiation is an opportunity to clear the limiting beliefs that keep you on loop, say goodbye to the inner voice that is keeping you small, and be guided into the ‘what’s next’.
Initiation is also an introduction, or stepping stone, into plant ceremonies and altered states of consciousness...

Meditation: Relaxation
This Meditation is designed to help you to achieve relaxation – for body and mind.
Laying (or sitting) comfortably, with a deep, slow breath, this meditation is perfect for when you feel a little 'buzzy', your thoughts are playing on a loop, you're in need of a midday reset, or you're trying to fall asleep. This practice offers the opportunity to relax, rest, and reset.
Using the breath and visualisation, join Renee as she guides you through this short relaxation meditation towards a calm body and mind.

Ep 46: Permission to Evolve
*Trigger warning
Consider this your permission to evolve...
Self-evolution – that gradual development of, and a return to, self – is, we believe, the shedding of that next layer, and everything that comes along with it.
In this episode of the Open Mind Space Podcast, Renee and Murray share their experiences of giving themselves 'permission to evolve' and witnessing others evolve... and others resist evolution.
Evolving isn't always easy, but – in order to create an expansive life that connects you to something higher, something bigger than yourself – it's necessary.

This Meditation is designed to help you activate your space (be it your room, entire home, car, or workplace) and call in the energy that will amplify your intentions.

Ep 45: Living With An Intuitive
Wondering what it's like living with an intuitive? There are possibly no experts on this topic quite like our very own, very tuned-in, Renee and Murray.
Since having met in 2017, these two intuitives have spent a lot of time together, mastering the art of – for lack of a better term – reading each others' minds. And, as Renee says, it's pretty fun!
In this episode of the Open Mind Space Podcast, Renee and Murray share their experiences and interview one another on exactly what it's like to live with an intuitive: exploring the duality of the upsides and the challenges or "chaos", supporting one another's flow state, and consistently harnessing connection, harmony and ease.

Meditation: Release Excess Energy

Using the breath and visualisation, join Renee as she guides you through this quick but effective energy-release exercise.

Ep 44: We'll Let You Know When It Gets Weird
Often when people come into the Open Mind Space studio, you can see they have a story burning to be shared. They'll lead with a pre-warning of sorts – something along the lines of, "This may sound weird....". Our reply is, and always will be: "We'll let you know when it gets weird. Hit us with it!"
The truth is, whatever you share, whatever comes next, it won't sound weird to us. Because we're in the same boat, friends.
To prove it, Renee and Murray share some of their 'weird' in this episode: stories of their more bizarre experiences and "this is a little too real" moments with spirits, energies, and even some cheeky ghosts.

Meditation: The Magic of Here and Now
This Meditation is designed to help you open your energetic channel, tune into the magic of the here and now, and welcome opportunities of the highest alignment – a perfect practice for the New Year!

Ep 43: 2023 Celebration
As the year draws to a close, Renee and Murray wanted to dedicate the last episode of the podcast for 2023 celebrating and acknowledging the year that has been....
And it certainly wouldn't be a reflection on 2023 without shouting out to our incredible team (both in the studio and behind the scenes) and community (we wouldn't be where we are without the amazing community we are so lucky to be a part of)!
Our podcast will return in 2024 from mid-January so stay tuned, and don't forget to follow us on your favourite podcasting platform.
In the meantime, we invite you now to take a moment to celebrate all of the things you've achieved, and made it through – you got to the other side! Congratulations!

Meditation: Step Into Your Power
This Meditation is designed to get you ready to step into your power.
This practice will call in your guides, release what stands between you and your purest self (the stuff, the stories, the attachments holding you back), reconnect you with your true power source, and allow you to step into your power and purpose.
Using the breath and visualisation, join Renee as she guides you through 15 potent minutes, sprinkling her energetic magic throughout. Get comfy, close your eyes, and let's go!

Ep 42: Support or Codependence?
Is the support you’re seeking helping you move through life, or holding you in a codependent rut?
As human beings, it's crucial for us to feel connected to community. And so it's understandable that, when life feels like it's gone a little sideways, we seek out support from others. But there is a fine line between seeking and receiving support, and giving your power away to another and relying on them to make you feel good or to 'fix' things/you.
"Don't allow our support to become a codependent relationship."
As practitioners, Renee and Murray share what ensuring a healthy, supportive relationship dynamic with their clients looks like, and together they explore what a healthy relationship with your support team ultimately requires.
To read the full notes for this episode, click here.
Please note: this conversation is nuanced, and support looks different for each individual and circumstance. If you feel you need support, you should always reach out – you'll find a few support resources here.

Meditation: Intuition Activation
This Meditation is designed to activate your intuition by connecting you to your highest self in order to gain a deeper understanding of your intuitive abilities.
This practice will guide you into a place of calm to allow you to access your intuitive receiver; to feel open, safe, and curious enough to receive its guidance, and to gift yourself the trust to use its teachings in your daily life.
Using the breath and visualisation, join Murray & Renee as they guide you through this simple yet effective activation, suitable for all levels – from the beginners and curious, to those who attune to their intuition regularly.

Ep 41: As You Grow, Friends May Go
It’s completely natural and normal for you to grow... and for your friendships to evolve as you do so. And, as Renee highlights in this episode, there is a conditioning that society pushes on us that just because you may have been friends with someone for a certain period of time, or been through a certain event together, that it means you have to stay friends forever.
Sure; friendships go through moments of needing ‘work’, open conversations and sometimes new boundaries – just like any type of relationship. But there are also times when it’s important to recognise and know when a friendship, through no fault of either party, has run its course.
In this episode, Renee and Murray share their experiences of the natural evolution of friendships.

Meditation: Energetic Cord Cutting
This Meditation on Energetic Cord Cutting is designed to allow you to cut the cords connecting you to others in life that are draining you energetically right now.
As humans, we consistently establish energetic cords of connection with others. These energetic cords will ideally flow two ways, with energy being both given and received; but that isn't always the case. If a connection is draining you right now – maybe there's someone you can't get out of your head who's taking up mental energy, or your connection feels unhealthy energetically - use this meditation to assist in the cutting of those cords.
Disconnect from those energetically draining you, and reclaim, protect and preserve your energy.

Ep 40: Many Paths to Designing Your Dream Life
The narrative in society emphasises a certain path one must take in order to have a ‘successful’ life. This episode is an acknowledgment of the fact that there are many different paths you can take to living a life that feels enriching and supportive.
Take us for example. Murray left school without completing Year 10. Meanwhile, Renee spent her teens at an academically selective high school, placing in the top percentile for the state in her final exams. Yet, here we both are: pulling up our seats next to each other at the same table, despite the fact that the paths that led us here are incredibly different.
And so this episode is to highlight that there are many paths available to create a life that feels successful for you.

Meditation: Energy Protection
This Meditation on Energy Protection is designed to allow you to claim back and protect your energy; a practice to protect your energetic field and allow you to stay in flow all day long.
Create a protective layer around you to filter out any negativity whilst allowing more of the good in. This energy protection practice is a great way to start your day, to prevent yourself from taking on other people's "stuff".
Using the breath and visualisation, join Renee on this journey of reclaiming your energy, and holding it so strongly that it can't be 'bumped' or affected by others.

Ep 39: Retreat Reflections | Manifesting Weekend at Sunquncha Temple
Our recent Manifesting Weekend at Sunquncha Temple was a retreat five years in the making. It was back in 2017 that Renee first started sharing our manifesting technique as a workshop. And, well... after this recent Retreat, we have absolutely no idea how we managed to fit everything into just three hours before!
We are so grateful to those who joined us for the weekend and who dove head-first into the experience.
Taking this opportunity to reflect, we wanted to share some of our takeaways from the Retreat with you...

Ep 38: How Murray Overcame Drug Addiction
Murray spent his early years in and out of jail, living a life of crime. Here he shares his story of meeting himself, and overcoming his drug and alcohol addiction.
In this episode, Murray speaks about meeting and intimately knowing his shadow parts, grounding and keeping them in check with discipline (in the form of mindful movement, meditation and breathwork), and how his deep connection to spirit has helped serve as a guide for both himself and for others.

Ep 37: Intuition | 'Am I Just Making It Up'?
Renee answers the question she's always asked around intuition: "What if I'm just making it up?".
Here's the thing: you are making it up. Your intuition and imagination are closely linked.
In this episode, Renee speaks about embracing, enhancing and interpreting your intuition, and how the imagination bridges your conscious mind and spiritual guidance.

Ep 36: Yoga Changed my PTSD
Trigger warning: This podcast episode contains content about PTSD as a result of sexual assault.
Renee doesn't often share this story but feels it's time to let it be seen, to let it go, and to close the loop. She also feels that it's important to share, as, although it's something a lot of people do (so unfortunately) experience, it's so rarely spoken about.
But the main reason for Renee wanting to talk about this is because, amongst several other things, her daily yoga practice is really what helped her move through to the other side of her PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder).

Ep 35: Our Guide to Manifesting
Let’s talk manifesting. It's our thing. Sure, we're known for yoga, meditation, and for running retreats. But the thing we do really well is manifest. And teach others how.
We're living examples of our manifestation process. If you've been following us for a while now, you'll be witness to all that we've manifested in a very short period of time. Four years ago, we were the new kids on the block. Now? We have a thriving yoga studio and retreat space, live in our dream home, and have a beautiful family unit.
In this episode, we guide you through our process for manifesting your dream life.

Ep 34: When Your Ego Plays Tricks
Today we're talking about the ego, and how it potentially plays tricks on us from time to time.
In a Spiritus breathwork session today, Renee - who's currently in facilitator training with Tim Morrison and Murray - experienced a moment where her ego put up a fight.
So why does the ego push back against the subconscious coming to light? And how do you identify when it's happening?

Ep 33: When Your 9-5 is In a Whole Other Dimension | Navigating Other Realms
This is a bit of a continuation of our last podcast episode on what we believe to be true when we cross over: when our body dies, and we become 'spirit'. So, if you haven't already listened to that one, start there!
And then Renee invites you to take a moment to actively suspend your field of belief, and listen to what comes next with an open mind... Because we're talking about the work that we do that is beyond and outside of the 3D realm.
Our "9-5", physical work is in the astral realm centres around helping others. But then our 'night shift' involves dropping into altered states of consciousness, through meditation, together, and assisting spirits, energies and entities in the other realm with whatever it is that we are directed to do.

Ep 32: What Happens When We Die | Murray’s Near Death Experience
Trigger warning: This podcast episode contains content about suicide.
We're getting a bit more woo-woo in this episode (because we're the Open Mind Space), and we're talking about what we believe happens when we cross over.
Who actually knows what happens when we pass?
Well, Renee feels that she does - although she doesn't have a personal experience of having done it, she's spent the past few decades hearing from those who have. Plus, Murray shares his experience of saying goodbye to Renee, to his family, to his friends, and to this world, as he moved towards the light.

Ep 31: Building a Community
If you're starting a community or service-based business, or looking to find and connect with your tribe, this is for you: we're talking about what it takes to build a community.
When Renee first moved back to Newcastle, her intention behind her desire to build a community wasn't to build a business; she just wanted to connect with a group of like-minded people. At first, she couldn't find that group, so she put the pin in the map for full moon meditations on the beach and attracted a community of people who all had this as common ground and who could each offer something. This has ended up being the foundation for what Renee and Murray have built since.
Plus, we have some very special events in May. Find out more about our upcoming events and workshops here.
