Are You An Intuitive Or Restrained Eater? Quiz

by

My friend & colleague, Louise Jeffrey, has just released a powerful new quiz that will help you to identify what kind of eater you are, and offer some valuable insight into whether you may be more susceptible to cravings, overeating, emotional eating, binge eating & weight gain.

Louise is an expert at helping women develop right relationship with food and their bodies, so they can have a life and body they love – WITHOUT dieting. She’s been through this journey herself, which makes her a truly empathic guide.

She says:
“As Human beings, we have to eat to survive. Each of us has our own unique relationship with food and our body that was shaped from our personality, the family environment we grew up in and our own unique life experiences. But before we can understand how the way you eat affects your body, we need to examine your relationship with food.Continue Reading

How I got my name…

by

My name, Ariana, is a spiritual name I took in my 30s. When I interviewed Riane Eisler recently for my Reclaiming The Wise Woman Elder – for the healing of Earth summit, I told her the story.

I told her because SHE was really responsible for me taking the name.

Her book, The Chalice and The Blade, was a transformational book for me. Reading about ancient European cultures that had worshipped the Great Goddess, in which women held power in equalitarian societies, and war was almost non-existent, was a revelation.

Learning her language of the Dominator paradigm vs. the Partnership paradigm was liberating and affirming.

We are not doomed by human nature to use violence! Cultures existed in our past where women and men were in partnership with each other and with our Earth! We can do it again, and even better.Continue Reading

What Burned Places Do You Have Inside?

by

This is one of my Spirit trees – a wonderful guide and protector. She is an ancient redwood with a huge burn scar in her base. (Yes, this is just one tree.)

She is huge, thriving and powerful in spite of the burned place.

I’ve learned to consciously transform the burned places in me. To mine the gifts they hold for me, and to bring those gifts to others through my work.

Bypassing Ain’t Gonna Cut It

by

I’m so impressed with the women in The Wise Woman Immersion.

We had our second meeting today, and they are so beautifully authentic, so willing to dive in deep, and so open to what their souls are calling them into.

As part of the class, I talked with them about Spiritual Bypass.

My spiritual mentor recently wrote a Facebook post about the predatory masculine in the spiritual community.

How some men who claim to be spiritual and claim to honor the divine feminine use their position as a teacher, or use their soft feminine side, to get women in bed with them. Multiple women.Continue Reading

Healing The Soul Wounds We Carry

by

In The Wise Woman Immersion, we are healing the soul wounds we carry of being silenced, of being made small, of being unheard and unseen.

I haven’t been one to be silent.

I grew up in a large family where intense discussions (often loud) were normal.

But I still had the cultural stories about my voice as a woman.

The story that we don’t talk about being sexually harassed and/or assaulted.

The story that “nice girls don’t toot their own horns” – which really held me back in my artistic careers, and when I began coaching.Continue Reading

The Missing Piece

by

Another wise one enrolled in The Wise Woman Immersion today.

She has an enormous depth of life experience and training.

She’s in transition from a nursing career to coaching and mentoring.

She’s in business coaching programs.

But she doesn’t feel truly seen, heard or appreciated in those programs as a spiritual being on a mission.

Her coaches were pushing her in a direction that felt wrong.Continue Reading
