Peter McLaughlinblueskyhypnosis.comIn this episode of New Earth Alchemy, we sit down with Peter McLaughlin for a raw, deep dive into the mechanics of healing. From navigating the physical toll of Lyme disease and leukemia to the psychological weight of anxiety and "muted" upbringings, we explore how our internal narratives dictate our biological reality.We look past the "quick fixes" to discuss the gritty, incremental work of reclamation—examining how the placebo and nocebo effects aren't just medical anomalies, but blueprints for how our beliefs shape our health.In this "Reality Soup" session, we explore:The Identity of Illness: Navigating the transition from surviving a diagnosis to thriving in a new mindset.Bio-Individual Blueprints: Why there is no "one size fits all" for trauma recovery and how to stop placing others on pedestals.The Placebo of Perspective: Practical tools like hypnotherapy, breathwork, and imagination to shift your internal state.Small Wins vs. Overwhelming Change: Breaking the cycle of comparison and social media paralysis through radical self-compassion and micro-steps.Whether you are healing from physical ailment or looking to bridge the gap between your current perception and a new reality, this conversation offers grounded, accessible tools for the long-game of evolution.This Week's Challenge: Notice one "nocebo" thought you have today—a belief that limits your physical or emotional potential.

Guest Spotlight:Olga Naiman | Garrison, New YorkThe Spatial AlchemyEpisode Description: Have you ever noticed that your home feels less like a sanctuary and more like a mirror of your internal chaos?In this episode of New Earth Alchemy, Savanah sits down with Olga Naiman to explore the profound "bio-antenna" connection between our physical spaces and our nervous systems. We dive deep into the concept of Environmental Somatics—the idea that our homes aren't just where we live, but are physical representations of our inner worlds and the identities we are ready to outgrow.From the "physics of possession" to the generational cycles of emotional neglect, we discuss how to stop seeking fulfillment in consumerism and start finding it in the sacred architecture of our daily lives.In this "Reality Soup" session, we explore:The Identity Anchor: How material possessions can act as masks that tether us to past versions of ourselves.The Sock Drawer Strategy: Why breaking the cycle of overwhelm starts with 30 seconds of intentionality, not a total life overhaul.Reparenting the Space: Breaking generational patterns of neglect by modeling presence for our children (and ourselves).Sacred Time vs. Survival Mode: Practical rituals for carving out stillness in a "sleepy state" world.Whether you are navigating the paralysis of ADHD, tilling the spirit of a cluttered home, or simply trying to find your way back to a "right on time" rhythm, this conversation offers the "malleable" tools you need to shift your environment—and your evolution.This Week's Challenge: Pick one "micro-space" (a junk drawer, a nightstand, or even just your desktop) and clear it with the intention of releasing one "old version" of yourself.

Our Guest:Chelsey PerryAthens ALi-hypnotherapy.comWhat does a Shonen anime protagonist have in common with a homestead farmer in the deep South? More than you’d think. In this episode, I’m joined by a lifelong friend, hypnotherapist, and master homesteader to discuss the "Reality Soup" of energy work—and why the best place to study it is in the red Alabama clay.We often get hung up on definitions, but whether you call it: Chakra, Ki, or Reiki, the biology of energy remains the same. Nature rarely follows a straight line, and in the garden, there is no separation between the physical minerals and the energetic intent—they are one inseparable system.Tilling the Spirit: Breaking the Foundation to Set it FreeWe’re diving into the philosophy of the "First Till"—the idea that sometimes we must intentionally break the hardened ground (and our own hardened habits) to build a foundation where life can finally flow without being forced. We explore why the most important tool on a farm isn't a tractor or a shovel—it’s malleability.About the Host:Savannah is a professional Yoga Instructor, Integrative Wellness Practitioner, and the founder of Earth and Water Wellness.

Zonie ThompsonPatreon.com/SacredSpiritHerbalsAthens, ALSociety asks women to be a paradox: the effortless beauty of the Maiden, the selfless sacrifice of the Mother, and the sharp wisdom of the Crone—all at the same time, 365 days a year. But nature doesn't bloom and harvest at the same time, and neither should you. Let's deconstruct this "Impossible Ask."In this episode, we sit down with Zonie, a local herbalist with whom we discuss the cyclical nature of life vs the linear construction of society. We explore the Wheel of the Year not as a mystical ritual, but as a biological blueprint for human sustainability. Just as a forest requires a season of rest to prepare for a season of growth, the human experience requires us to honor our distinct phases of life rather than forcing them to overlap.

Morgan SmithPhoenix, Arizonakalmwithkava.com Reality is a tangled web of people and their individual stories. The simple complexities that connect one action to another, even oceans away, are so impossibly intricate that their total pathways remain cloaked even to those they involve.We’re so quick to throw blame and criticism at the crimes and injustices we see taking place around the world—thinking we know the cause and cure for epidemics that have, in some cases, been unfolding for centuries. We allow anger to leap toward fault and accusations, when compassion, openness, and personal responsibility would be a far better fit.Kava is a plant whose roots have provided guidance for centuries through ceremonial practices that bring people together. Hardship and conflict are human experiences none of us entirely escape, but finding common ground is how we have survived for thousands of years. By discovering our own roots and holding them in sacred space for those near us and those who come after, we become healed together.Ad free at Patreon.com/EarthandWater

Our Guest:Kayse GehretVero Beach, FloridaMicrodosingforhealing.comActivism has dominated the cultural landscape for years, but while the headlines focus on protest, the system remains unchanged.If the structures in power are designed to stay broken, the responsibility of repair falls to us.Many pick up the torch of reform only to find themselves marching for 'awareness'—but we are already well aware. In this episode, we ask: what actual change comes from yelling at a closed door?We explore how real transformation is built by individuals and neighbors who stop hoping for government help and start creating self-sustainable communities.

Our Guest:Sharon Marie ScottSan Diego, Californiahttps://www.sharonmariescott.com/Life is a game. We get to create our own character, manuvour them around, choosing our quests and collecting loot. The rules of this game are subject only to the laws of the universe. However, cultural and societal norms are always creating new rules for us to follow. Often aimed at maintaining values and stability but also creating cages that restrict and enslave. Although well meaning, sometimes these 'laws of the land" create confusion and trauma within innocence. Causing harm to those trying to navigate their instincts, bodies and that which has been unwelcomely imposed on them from a fragile age. ad free on the Patreon: https://patreon.com/EarthandWater

Our guest: Ken WortleyBrasil Book on AmazonThere are a lot of positive things that can come out of organized religion when done correctly. Unfortunately, human fallacy within these realms has caused damage for centuries. This particular episode details Ken's own story of suppressing his true self in an effort to fit within the constraints of his religion.The expectations of others can steal away our entire lives if we allow them to. The first half of the episode (at least) is Ken detailing his journey for us. Towards the end we find the takeaways and maybe a little inspiration and direction if we, too are dealing with similar self suppression. Feel free to skip ahead.

Our Guest: Talor StewartShaftsbury, Vermonthttps://conscioushomedesign.com/Our environments are an extension of us. If our home is cluttered or unfunctional, that's exactly how we feel. Counterly, if we have a space that's conducive and coherent to our values and priorities, harmony is created in how our time and energy is utilized. Navigating our home space is deeply personal and since we spend half of our lives within those walls, it's invaluable to set things up in a manner that supports what we wish for our lives to be. This was my longest episode to date! And also the longest duration I've went on an episode without speaking and not been irritated by it.

Our Guest: Bill GoodwinMinneapolis, Minnesotahttps://linktr.ee/coachbillgoodwinSo many of us have climbed to the upper levels of Maslow's Pyramid only to realize we don't know what to do now. When we have tangible needs (food, water, shelter, etc) to strive for, it's easy to stay focused on what we need to be doing. When all of our physical needs are met, and all that's left is the mental and emotional, it can be harder to know where to turn. The cocoon of comfort we've created may very well be the reason for our depression. How do we balance comfort and discomfort for continued progress and growth? THAT, takes a little bit of discipline, but we shouldn't be doing anything alone. We're communal creatures and human connection is the solution to many (if not most) of our problems. Easier said than done, sure, but we're all learning together. Intentionality was the theme of this conversation. You could make a solid drinking game out of how many times it (& our guest's book) was mentioned. Although I don't know if a drinking game is the best use of our time if we're looking for progress and purpose.

Our guest:William FitzRoyFind him hereThis was a fun episode. William passed all the important vibe checks and gave us a solid perspective of learning to trust our innate gifts in a beautiful and relatable way.Like any good anime team, we all have our strengths and weaknesses. Trusting one another to collaborate in a way that benefits the whole brings all members a sense of "wholeness" and purpose.

Our guest:Kara Goodwinhttps://www.soulelevationpodcast.com/--------------------------------------------------What even is reality? The more we learn, the more we realize that this world holds much more mystery than it does truth and understanding.Especially with A.I. stepping into the picture. How will we ever know what is real? Our solution is to step back from what we think we know and focus on only what exists in front of us in the moment. Utilizing our creative mind to create the reality that best suits us in the now. We explore many concepts, ideas and tools in this episode to help us calm our anxiety about the future, heal the past and explore who we are in the present so that we can invite in more synchronicity and alignment. Opting for smooth spirals rather than hard and sharp right angles. Be gentle with yourself. Self care can make all the difference in the world.& we all have a shadow side.
