On this week's episode we talk about the 5 different Human Design archetypes - what they are, the conditioning for each, and how to begin living in your design if you might be off track. We love this modality because it's helped us understand ourselves more and live with more ease and less resistance in work and life. ⁠ ⁠ One of the types we go into are generators - who can tend to have conditioning around the idea of "should" and all the things they "should" do - which can get in the way of operating according to what really lights them up. ⁠ ⁠ Which Human Design type are you? If you don't know, you can listen to the episode and see which type resonates most with you or you can go to mybodygraph.com and type in your birth date, place of birth, and time to get your exact type. ⁠ ⁠ Listen to the full episode @ the link in bio and let us know in the comments which type you are! ⁠

[New episode is live!] This week we're talking about something very near and dear to our hearts: the science of Human Design. We've used human design in our lives and work for a while now - it helps us to understand how we can create more ease and less resistance in our lives so that things feel more effortless and less like an uphill climb. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀It also helps us identify where we have conditioning from societal programming that isn't really "us." On this episode, we explore the Human Design archetypes - for example, the "people pleasers" that have been conditioned to shrink in order to not make others feel small or because they want to be liked above all else - and many more. We share how we use Human Design to understand each other's working styles better, and how you can too. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⭐️ Our biggest takeaway from the study of Human Design: life and work don't have to be that hard. When you're operating according to your true authentic self, you can create more flow. Think: what are the things you are putting a lot of energy into but not getting much back in return, versus those things you can do endlessly without getting tired? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Listen at the link in bio for the full episode. One of our favorites!

S here. I am very happy and proud of myself because I just completed a healing detox on Sunday. I take pretty good care of myself but I was noticing I was feeling sluggish, not sleeping great, and because of the stress from the state of the world, I wasn’t always making the best choices of what I was putting into my body. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I did the @sakaralife Level 2 detox program to completely reset my body and mind. I feel so much lighter, sleeping way better - and my skin is glowing (if I can get the courage, I’ll share the before/after photo of how my skin transformed in the story today). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I loved the program because there were tons of healthy whole foods and every meal had healing superfood ingredients to work on things like gut health, inflammation (this is a HUGE one and shows up everywhere in and out of the body), skin, and metabolism. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I shared some of my favorite meals plus all the fun extras they share like the detox water I’m drinking, supplements, and more. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you want to try any of Sakara’s meal programs or any of their clean boutique items, you can use our code BF-VIRRA2020 for 25% off anything on their site through 11/30!

The new moon is here and it's time for setting intentions!⁠ ⁠ After midnight tonight, we’ll be under a new moon in Scorpio. This new moon is a time to reflect and set yourself up for new beginnings. Scorpio is deep and mysterious, it represents death and rebirth, and brings light into the dark.⁠ ⁠ This new moon, think about: ⁠ *What am I holding onto that is no longer serving me? ⁠ *How can I confront and shine a light what feels dark or uncomfortable in my life? ⁠ *How do I see myself releasing and transforming? ⁠ ⁠

Noticing the signs of burnout is important so we c

Noticing the signs of burnout is important so we can catch it before it gets to the point where we feel extreme exhaustion. A recent study showed that the pandemic has increased the feeling of burnout by over 30% among workers due to adjusting to a different way of working. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When we spoke to clinical hynotherapist, Anastasia Gerali this week, she talked about the 3 burnout archetypes to look out for. When we are stressed or triggered by someone or something, we tend to fall into one of the three. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The next time you feel this way, try pausing and taking a breath. Then ask yourself what you are feeling and bring awareness to any self limiting beliefs you have that are blocking you from prioritizing yourself and your health. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How can you give yourself permission to move beyond it for the next time? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Link in bio to hear more on this topic as well as Anastasia's expertise on the subconscious mind and manifestation :)

Seeing is believing. ⁠ ⁠ When we can look to other people as inspiration versus comparison we show our subconscious mind what is possible for us. In order to manifest, our subconscious mind has to believe that the life we want is possible. One of the ways to do that is to surround yourself with people who have the things you want - if they can have it, you can have it too. This can be as simple as consciously choosing to follow people that inspire you on social media. ⁠ ⁠ We had a conversation with clinical hypnotherapist, Anastasia Gerali this week exploring manifestation and the subconscious mind. We discuss this idea of "seeing is believing" in more detail and how we can use this to manifest the things we want. ⁠ ⁠ Link in bio to listen to the full conversation where we cover this and so much more on the subconscious mind and manifestation :)⁠
