00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:11,520
Hello everyone and welcome to a new episode of the Awaken Together podcast.

2
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:15,760
I'm Kat and today we have a very special guest on the show.

3
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:20,400
I'm so excited to introduce you all to my friend, Chelsea Bates.

4
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:25,440
Welcome Chelsea. Hi everyone. Thanks so much. I'm so excited to be here.

5
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:29,520
This is such an honor and I can't wait to dive into everything.

6
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:33,120
Yeah. Thanks for coming on the show. We're so excited to have you.

7
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:41,520
When we wanted to do like a sound healing 2.0, aside from the one that Jen and I did like a

8
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:49,200
season or two ago where we were just sharing our experiences, we wanted a pro such as yourself

9
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,280
to be able to come on and share all the wisdom and the things that we don't know

10
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:59,360
to really enlighten our community with. So to give you all a little background on Chelsea,

11
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:05,280
she is wonderful. We actually met through Nurture where I work here in the Highlands in Denver.

12
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:12,800
And Chelsea is such a gift to the community. She is an intuitive astrologer, guide and healer

13
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:19,600
and the owner of Alchemist healing. And Chelsea, would you mind sharing a little bit about what

14
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:26,400
you offer with your business? Yeah, absolutely. So I'm an intuitive astrologer, intuitive guide,

15
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:34,080
an intuitive sound healer, essentially in a nutshell, infusing an intuitive approach to

16
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:40,560
a multitude of different modalities so that I can really create safe space for people to really

17
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:47,600
learn about who they are and embody who they truly are, which I believe really is our purpose.

18
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:53,360
Our true purpose is really just the essence of who we are at our very core. And we get to

19
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:58,720
act that out and work with that in a multitude of different ways throughout our lives. And so

20
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:04,320
my mission with my business and really my mission just as a person living on earth is really to

21
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:11,120
create safe space through and with my friends, with my community, with my clients to really discover

22
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:16,640
and understand who they are in deeper and deeper ways. So that's a little bit in a nutshell.

23
00:02:16,640 --> 00:02:23,520
Beautiful. Yeah, I hear it alchemistic. I resonate with that a lot in terms of like holding safe

24
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:28,560
spaces for people to come home to themselves. It's such a beautiful life mission and purpose.

25
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:34,560
And that has me curious, what's your human design? My human design is I am a two-for

26
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:43,600
manifesting generator and emotional, emotional, I believe? Authority. Yes, yes, yes, that's it.

27
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:48,160
I'm an emotional authority too. I think we've talked about that before. Yeah, yeah, so cool.

28
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:55,520
That's so good. Some sinks with our purpose and how we make decisions. Totally. Totally. What is

29
00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:04,640
yours? So I'm a four-six projector. Oh, I can see that so much for you. I love that. It's funny. Jen,

30
00:03:04,640 --> 00:03:10,400
she's also a manifesting generator and I feel like the most people in my life that I'm closest to

31
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:17,760
are Mani-Jens. So it's fun. It's fitting. That's so fun. Yeah, I love it. Yeah. So you offer some

32
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:22,800
amazing things through your business, sound healing being one of them, also some different forms of

33
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:31,120
readings. And I mean, just landing at this point in your life with your business, I can imagine,

34
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:35,600
such as myself, like there's a lot of different things in life that have to happen in order to

35
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:43,680
get us here. So how would you feel about sharing your story, your why, and how you landed in this

36
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:50,560
space of creation without the mystic healing? Thank you. Yeah. Okay, so a little bit about how

37
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:58,000
I've landed here, I think goes all the way back to childhood. You know, I have really early memories

38
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:10,320
of seeing angels, little orbs in the skies, and silhouettes of glowing, yeah, glowing silhouettes,

39
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:16,320
quite literally, that I knew very clearly were angels as a child. And I thought it was the coolest

40
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:21,120
thing, I would share it with my parents, they'd be like, wow, super cool, amazing, like probably

41
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:28,240
not totally like, oh, you're just being a kid, but I remember it so clearly. And I think it kind of

42
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:37,600
started there, I grew up really religious in a home that we were somewhat fundamentalist type

43
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:43,520
of Christianity. So I was homeschooled and didn't go to school. And so I think growing up, I had this

44
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:55,360
outsider, outcast sort of story and trauma really develop in my being. And I think from that,

45
00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:05,200
in combination with just the nature of how my family was, I got a case of just developing a severe

46
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:13,280
case of people pleasing and as well as just being a super sensitive soul. And so I think

47
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:20,480
growing up, feeling that sense of like, being the outsider, being homeschooled, so not trusting my

48
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:27,760
own intelligence in relation to the intelligence of my peers, as well as just experiencing a lot of

49
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:33,120
people pleasing as a result of that, because I really wanted to be accepted from community, as well

50
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:39,200
as from my family and just trying to navigate the complexity of that. I found myself in this

51
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:50,800
dance of feeling really, really lost from who I authentically was. And so around 18 or 19,

52
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:58,160
I started going to an SEC school, University of Florida, and started getting into festivals,

53
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:04,960
was in a relationship, and was opened up to a whole world of different experiences.

54
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:10,160
Were you homeschooled from preschool to college?

55
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:16,720
So from third grade to college, yeah. Wow, that's wild. So like the majority of your schooling life.

56
00:06:17,280 --> 00:06:23,520
Yes, yes, which I, it's totally my path. And I think I'm just now kind of coming to a place of

57
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:31,680
acceptance that that was supposed to be my path. But everything became so clear

58
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:42,640
of that feeling of being the outcast, of being not intelligent enough, feeling and experiencing life

59
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:53,200
to a point where I felt like I had to be small to feel okay. While simultaneously being introduced

60
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:58,560
and exposed to different ways of life, like experiencing music festivals and working with

61
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:04,960
psychedelics that were so inspiring and exciting. So getting into that, I started working with

62
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:12,400
psychedelics through going to music festivals and really experiencing what it meant to be in the

63
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:19,360
present moment. And from that, I got a lot of inspiration of, well, how can I practice this?

64
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:25,600
Like how can I make this magic that I experienced through psychedelics a part of my daily life?

65
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:33,840
And so I got into meditation that was around maybe like 2016 or so. And that kind of opened

66
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:39,520
everything up for me. And for the first time in my life, I was experiencing,

67
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:49,680
I was starting to experience peace and presence on the day to day. And as a result,

68
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:59,600
I felt more confident in my ability to stand in my truth and to trust myself and to really love

69
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:05,440
myself. And I think that was sort of this first opening, which this relationship I was in and

70
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:11,600
the festival community and working with psychedelics had all given me, which had been so potent

71
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:20,880
since I was coming out of a childhood and 18 years of feeling really trapped and traumatized in my

72
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:28,640
own way. You know, I think we all have childhood trauma and our stories. And this was mine. And it

73
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:34,720
led me feeling a certain way. And I found different modalities and tools and ways of living that

74
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:41,440
really opened up a possibility or a perspective for me to show me that there's more and that

75
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:47,440
healing is possible. And I think through that, through the years, I just started becoming more

76
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:54,640
and more invested and then I think the Instagram world, especially like spiritual Instagram,

77
00:08:54,640 --> 00:09:01,920
wellness Instagram really started to pop off around like 2018, 2019, I feel, at least in my,

78
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:12,480
to my perception and what I was saying. Yeah. And so I think from that, I was so excited of,

79
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:19,680
oh my gosh, there's all of these possibilities. Following intuition, higher self divine polarities,

80
00:09:19,680 --> 00:09:26,240
inner child, limiting beliefs, like all the things I'm like, oh my gosh, so good. And so

81
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:33,680
just through the years getting deeper and deeper into that. And then eventually in 2020, I took a

82
00:09:33,680 --> 00:09:41,840
certification to like officially reactivate my intuition and working with that as well as just

83
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:46,480
looking up in the sky and seeing orbs and things that I hadn't experienced since I was a child,

84
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:53,440
all started to come back online for me as a result. Yeah, during COVID times and what was that like,

85
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:59,680
that like certification of reactivating your intuition. That sounds intriguing. Yeah, it was

86
00:09:59,680 --> 00:10:07,600
so fascinating, really, really potent. And I think one of the biggest turning points for me,

87
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:14,720
where spirituality became more of a path of I'm going to do this professionally instead of,

88
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:19,920
which I think it's every person's path is so beautiful. But for me, that was this turning

89
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:27,440
point of, oh, this is what I'm meant to do. Like it's a calling that I have to be in service for

90
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:32,640
others. And so I think through that intuition activation mentorship I was in, I realized my

91
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:40,720
gifts in a new way and the joy that it brought me to be in service to others and read for others and

92
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:49,600
translate spirit for others and sprinkle my purpose and essence in the mix, I think is a really,

93
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:56,240
really cool thing. So I experienced that in 2020, while simultaneously diving super deep

94
00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:01,200
into astrology more, I've taken more of the self taught route with astrology,

95
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:09,200
and simultaneously getting into that world. And then at the end of the summer in 2020,

96
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,560
getting certified in sound healing. So it's kind of like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom,

97
00:11:12,560 --> 00:11:21,440
let's do all the things. Yep, that's how I am too. So yeah, that was that was the path. And

98
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:31,040
then I moved out to Colorado. And from there, I opened up my business a year after I moved out here

99
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:39,120
and started holding event spaces. And then slowly over time, I found nurture and felt really called

100
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:45,920
to open up a space there to see clients in a one on one setting. And yeah, it's just been evolving

101
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:53,920
more and more as the journey goes on. And I think while all of this has been happening, I also in

102
00:11:53,920 --> 00:12:00,000
my own journey have been moving through a lot of personal transformation, a lot of deep healing.

103
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:07,440
And I really sense that where I'm at right now in my in my business, in my life, is it feels like

104
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:14,880
all of this karma and the patterns and the cycles of things that I've been like playing with and

105
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:20,800
dancing with since the start of my spiritual journey, there, it's all sort of come to a height

106
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:28,640
and time and ready to really be worked through in this new way. And not to say that there aren't

107
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:36,640
things that I'm not going to maybe always be triggered by. But there's this opportunity in 2023

108
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:44,640
that feels like it's giving space for me to be able to embody my true purpose and witness my

109
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:50,160
limiting beliefs and witness my trauma and my wounds and hold loving space for it, not need to get

110
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:55,760
rid of it. And I think as a result, I'm feeling so much more empowered and clear in my mission and

111
00:12:55,760 --> 00:13:01,920
my business and my own journey with what spirituality really looks like for me. So

112
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:07,600
that's that's how that's the journey. And that's where I'm at right now and how I've landed here.

113
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:14,640
So yeah, that's beautiful. Thanks for sharing that. Do you think your Saturn Returns coming?

114
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:20,560
Are you like about that point in life? I hear you say like culmination and like reflecting on all

115
00:13:20,560 --> 00:13:24,240
the things that you've been building and growing. I'm like, Oh, sounds like Saturn's coming.

116
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:31,600
So my Saturn Return doesn't start actually until May 2025. Okay. So I've got a little bit of time.

117
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:38,800
That's good. But what is fascinating is that the nodes right now, North Node and South Node,

118
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:42,480
are you familiar? I don't know if you're if you've done an astrology episode, if your audience is

119
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:49,040
familiar with that. Yeah, essentially the karma and purpose, the karma and dharma access points in the

120
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:56,480
in the zodiac. And it's fascinating because right now they are in the North Nodes and Aries,

121
00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:04,240
the South Nodes and Libra. So we really have this space for we are being edged into independence,

122
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:12,800
leadership, sovereignty, and with being an Aries, Saturn and Aries person, astrologically,

123
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:21,120
the universe is really setting things up for the Saturn Return for the people who have Saturn and

124
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:26,240
Aries in a really, really beautiful and unique way because there's already the support to step

125
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:32,080
into the higher polarity of Aries before the lessons and the karma of Aries gets cleared

126
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:36,800
through the Saturn Return. So I'm feeling that for sure. It's all aligned, right? It's all

127
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:43,680
constantly. Always. It all makes sense. Yeah, completely. Wow, that is super cool. And then

128
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:51,840
thinking about sounds like one of the big catalysts on your healing journey. There is just so much for

129
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:58,560
us to know, I think. And so I'm really excited just to be able to learn from you and like,

130
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:10,640
how does sound heal? Yeah, beautiful. Yeah, so sound really is frequency and everything in this world

131
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:18,160
is frequency. We are frequency, this microphone is frequency, the planet is frequency,

132
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:27,600
and it's tuned to a specific number of hertz frequency. And when I think about sound healing

133
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:37,120
as a powerful modality and how it really heals, they are sound bowls, gongs, sound healing tools

134
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:47,840
really are frequency shifters. And so we can use them as conduits for a certain type of frequency

135
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:52,720
depending on what the bowl is attuned to or what the tuning force, whatever tool you're working

136
00:15:52,720 --> 00:16:03,440
with, whatever frequency it's working with to really offer a specific frequency for a person

137
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:10,640
or an item to match with. And so on a cellular level, our cells are constantly, as well as our

138
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:17,760
aura, our electromagnetic field, is constantly shifting and moving between different frequencies

139
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:24,240
depending on where we're at in our journey, what living beliefs we have, what, how we're feeling

140
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,800
in a day or mental health, so many different things. And so because of that, we emanate a

141
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:37,600
particular frequency. And if that frequency is preventing us from manifesting certain things

142
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:44,560
that we're wanting to call into our lives, we might use a tool to help shift the frequency

143
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:52,000
back to its optimal state. And so this is why sound healing and humans work so beautifully

144
00:16:52,000 --> 00:17:00,640
together because since we are all frequency and our frequency determines our ability to manifest

145
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:09,120
and really our ability to step into purpose, when using tools that specifically work with frequency,

146
00:17:09,120 --> 00:17:16,880
we can play them and our cells know naturally, our aura knows naturally to sync up with what it's

147
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:22,240
receiving in the very same way that when I'm sitting next to you and I can share something from my

148
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:28,480
heart and you can receive it and you feel that frequency and it sits in your body and you feel

149
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:33,760
loved or maybe triggered depending on what the conversation is, a multitude of different things,

150
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,200
it's the exchange of frequency. And so the same thing.

151
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:41,600
It's like when you're talking with someone, there's a natural mirroring in the way that

152
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:47,600
like whether it's tone or volume or you know, even body language, I feel like I experience that a

153
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:55,760
lot. So that makes a lot of sense with frequency. Yes, exactly. And so certain bowls or certain

154
00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:04,480
sound healing instruments are each attuned to a certain Hertz frequency. Each of my bowls are

155
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:11,200
each tuned to certain frequencies that match the chakras as well as each of them have different

156
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:16,160
infused crystals. And so that adds another layer, which I would love to talk about as we move on.

157
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:24,480
But with that being said, I can play them and a person might receive it and not even consciously

158
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:32,560
understand what it is or what frequency it's emanating, but it feels good because our cells

159
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:39,600
understand frequency because that is how they work. And so another really beautiful example of this

160
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:47,760
is water. We can program water and set its frequency or our food, for example, with an intention.

161
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:56,640
And when we do that, because these, whether it's water or food has a frequency and we infuse the

162
00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:03,200
intention into it, when we eat it, we are consuming that frequency and everything in the world works

163
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:10,080
this way. And so sound healing is really a modality that targets this exact science and this exact

164
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:18,960
way of understanding how the interesting fluctuations of how we can feel as humans really

165
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:24,880
works. Does that make sense? It does. Yeah, totally. And it's like in the morning, sometimes I like to

166
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:30,960
whisper my gratitude into my coffee before I drink it because it's just infusing it with love and

167
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:36,960
gratitude and then that becomes me. And so it makes so much sense with the bowls and the frequencies

168
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:43,360
and how they're attuned to different feelings and emotions and energies. So yeah, I'm so excited.

169
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:49,760
How about these bowls that you have right here in front of us? What are the different frequencies

170
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:54,960
and energies associated with them? Yeah, so this first bowl that I have here is

171
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:04,320
B-note and so it's attuned to the crown chakra and it is clear quartz and so it has this clearing

172
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:11,760
essence, especially for the crown area. And so it can really help people open up their sense of trust

173
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:16,160
in the universe and their path and knowing that the universe has got their back. And so this bowl

174
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:24,720
is really, really great for that. This bowl over here is the note E and it is attuned to this solar

175
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:35,040
plexus, so confidence and sense of like I am energy and it's infused with labradorite and

176
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:42,240
palladium, which together really offer an intuitive activating essence and really help others

177
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:48,640
help people connect with their higher selves. And because it's attuned to the solar plexus,

178
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:56,160
it has this powerful I am energy. It really helps people kind of clear away any limiting beliefs

179
00:20:56,160 --> 00:21:02,640
around their solar plexus that may have them believing that they're not enough or that they

180
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:08,960
don't have the courage to step into certain things in their lives. So especially having the trust

181
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:16,000
in self to be an intuitive person, that's the way that I really understand the powers of this

182
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:20,880
bowl and the way that these two can really work together. And then the third one that I have here

183
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:31,120
is G-Sharp, which is attuned to the thymus, which is so, so incredibly powerful. And

184
00:21:31,120 --> 00:21:38,640
besides that, it has Dead Sea Salt and Aqua Orgold. And so it has this really clearing sense

185
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:44,800
where it can clear away anything in the body that's just not resonant, especially on a cellular level,

186
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:49,280
any cells that are kind of just like, maybe these ones want to die off or like they're just not

187
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:55,760
vibrational match for where I'm wanting to go in my life. It just clears that away and has that

188
00:21:55,760 --> 00:22:03,360
extra power. So yeah, lovely. Yeah, so cool. I love that last one too. I mean, with the sea salt,

189
00:22:03,360 --> 00:22:09,120
it has that energy of the ocean and like the washing away and you toxify it. Yeah, well,

190
00:22:09,120 --> 00:22:14,400
post a photo of these bowls on Instagram too, so folks can get a little visual to what these look

191
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:21,280
like. How about some of the other tools that you use? What do you use like other tools for and

192
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:28,960
I'm thinking about someone who might be a listener and like early on their sound healing journey,

193
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:34,320
if this is really speaking to them, like what are some tools that they might look into or

194
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:41,360
investigate or even attend knowing that those are going to be utilized? Yeah, so different tools

195
00:22:41,360 --> 00:22:48,640
that I work with besides the bowls. Yeah, so chimes, I work with chimes, which are so incredibly

196
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:55,040
powerful, which really helped to like clear away any busyness in the mind. I think we have a really

197
00:22:55,040 --> 00:23:02,320
difficult time stepping away from the mind and into the body and chimes can be really powerful

198
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:08,960
and helping us step into the body more deeply. So I love to use those tools for that specifically

199
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:14,720
and typically I'll use those at the end of a sound healing to lovingly, softly, gently bring people

200
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:20,720
out of their journey as they went on through the sound healing and into the body and really be present

201
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:28,400
with the senses. It has this like torus essence of like sensual and being in the body and experiencing

202
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:35,920
your senses really presently. So I love those for that. And I work with the gong, which is attuned to

203
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:43,120
the F note. So it's really hard opening and gongs have this really powerful ancestral wisdom to them.

204
00:23:43,120 --> 00:23:50,640
And so I love working with that tool. And my gong being tuned to the heart chakra really helps people

205
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:58,720
like tap into their heart's deepest desire and open their hearts up for experiencing more love.

206
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:07,360
I think we live in a world that asks us to close our hearts. And I think it's so incredibly important

207
00:24:07,360 --> 00:24:16,800
for us to have and work with tools if we don't already feel like we're able to tap into an

208
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:23,360
open heart so we can experience greater amounts of love and greater connection. Because I think at

209
00:24:23,360 --> 00:24:29,360
the end of the day that's what we all desire so deeply. So the gong is really attuned to that.

210
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:36,160
I work with the buffalo drum, which is also really great for heart opening and has this very deep

211
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:44,720
sensation. I also get a lot of sacral chakra activation from the drum. It's this creation

212
00:24:45,360 --> 00:24:51,600
essence to it. So the drum is really powerful for that. And I also work with ocean drum and

213
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:57,440
rain stick, which really just bring in this connection to water and the healing powers of water.

214
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:06,400
And how relaxing it is and helps our nervous system really soothe and feel comfortable and able to

215
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:15,120
stay in the parasympathetic for longer amounts of time. I feel like water tools are really powerful

216
00:25:15,120 --> 00:25:23,520
for helping people stay regulated in especially in dynamics or situations that are really

217
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:30,000
activating. So I love using the water instruments for those types of experiences for people and

218
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:36,080
helping their frequency to experience those types of things. So yeah. Beautiful. Oh my gosh, you have

219
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:43,600
quite a toolkit available to you. And as you were talking, I was thinking about how fitting it is

220
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:50,960
and how it doesn't seem like a coincidence at all that you really dove into this path through

221
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:58,320
festivals. And festivals are such a celebration of community and sound. Right? And here's what you're

222
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:09,200
doing now. Yeah. Yes. It's so true. Music is frequency. And that's not, I mean, like I was

223
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:16,080
saying before, everything in the world is frequency. But music has this really beautiful way of

224
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:22,240
connecting us with certain frequencies. And in fact, I think it's one of the easiest ways for us to

225
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:29,280
do frequency healing. And we can do that through a sound bath or working in a one-on-one setting,

226
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:33,840
if we want to go a little bit deeper into that, or going to a music festival and connecting with

227
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:41,840
our friends and community and celebrating life through experiencing powerful frequencies through

228
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:49,200
music. Yeah. It is the universal language. So thinking about like real life examples,

229
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:54,400
transformations that you've experienced with clients in your group work, do you have any

230
00:26:55,120 --> 00:27:03,360
examples that are top of mind? So I've had a multitude of different, I've had people share

231
00:27:03,360 --> 00:27:10,080
a multitude of different experiences with me from what's happened for them after a sound bath. And

232
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:17,920
I've had people share, they've had a lot of shifts on the physical pain level, as well as on the

233
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:25,360
energetic level, as well as on the intuitive psychic level. I had someone once share with me

234
00:27:25,360 --> 00:27:33,200
that they had been experiencing a lot of pain in their feet and had had several surgeries and had

235
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:40,080
been seeing doctors for years to try to soothe some of this pain and nothing was really helping.

236
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:47,440
And they came to one of my sound baths and told me that after in the days following that the pain

237
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:53,120
in their feet had really subsided in a way that nothing else they had tried had really helped as

238
00:27:53,120 --> 00:28:02,000
much. And that's when I explained that these tools are frequency tuners. I mean, they are

239
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:08,720
on the very physical scientific level, like in our body, our cells are really shifting. And I think

240
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:13,760
that's what's really, really cool about these. And so people can experience pain relief, physical

241
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:22,960
pain relief from sound healing. And especially we can even go deeper than that and use tuning forks

242
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:30,800
on certain parts of the body. So if anyone in your audience experiences chronic pain or any

243
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:37,840
joint inflammation, something really awesome to do is purchase a on body tuner. And they're pretty

244
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:43,280
accessible. You can find them on Amazon and placing them on your body and playing them in the

245
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:49,520
mornings can be really, really powerful if anyone experiences chronic pain. So that's something that

246
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:54,480
people have shared with me in the past. It's been really profound for them, as well as I've had people

247
00:28:54,480 --> 00:29:01,760
have incredible intuitive activating experiences through sound healing, where they're taken on a

248
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:11,120
visual journey of seeing colors and a whole story of something that their psyche and their spirit is

249
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:17,600
creating. And for some people, it really makes a lot of sense. Other people are like, what was that?

250
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:25,360
That's me. I feel like I mentioned this on our other episode, but the first gong back that I

251
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:33,440
attended, I didn't even know that it was not normal to see all the things I saw. And so at the end of

252
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:41,600
it, I had gone through tunnels and seen a little blonde girl's face looking at me in a certain

253
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,600
way and then shot over to see these animals that I don't think are really, really, really

254
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:52,640
over to see these animals that I don't think exist on earth. And it was a whole journey. And then

255
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:58,080
after I asked my husband and my friends, I was like, so what did you all see? And they were like,

256
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:05,520
what do you mean? I was like, didn't you see all that stuff, that crazy stuff? No, I was just very

257
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:12,240
relaxed. Like, oh my gosh. And that was one of the big moments where I was like, okay, like,

258
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:17,840
I have something going on here. And then that was a big awakening for me was through a gong bath.

259
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:26,560
Wow. How fascinating. Everyone's experiences are so unique and perfectly attuned to them

260
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:30,960
and what they're really needing. You know, if your body, your spirit is craving more physical

261
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:35,840
healing. I mean, you're always going to get all of the different types of healing mind, body,

262
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:43,600
spirit and every vibrational tune, manner, sound bath. But I think each person might have a different

263
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:50,720
personal experiencing of what they're perceiving based upon maybe more on like what their spirit

264
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:56,720
is really calling in. And if your spirit's in a place where you're really open to experiencing

265
00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:02,800
new levels of your intuition and how to harness that as a tool in your life, sound healing can be

266
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:11,360
really incredible for that. Because of the nature of how sound healing takes you on a journey,

267
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:19,200
it's very easy for participants to fall into it and to open to it and experience with it. And

268
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:26,800
whether that means going on a journey and seeing all these visions or falling so deep into a theta

269
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:32,960
brain wave state that they're just blissed out and they're totally present in the moment and experiencing

270
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:40,160
what is happening in the room. It's perfectly attuned for each person. So yeah, I've had several

271
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:46,640
people more on the physical level of the healing, more on that energetic, intuitive level of

272
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:54,080
activation and healing as well as just nervous systemiculation, really having an opportunity

273
00:31:54,080 --> 00:32:01,200
to be cleared of any frequencies that are not true to a person's actual essence. So sound healing

274
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:07,680
is a conduit for that. Beautiful. Yeah, that's awesome. I love that. And then thinking about

275
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:14,960
some of the other sessions that you offer people, could you share a little bit about what your

276
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:20,800
readings are like? Totally. So my readings, I kind of mentioned this a little bit in the beginning.

277
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:30,080
I infuse an intuitive channeling essence into astrology, into sound healing,

278
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:38,800
and create experiences and readings for people so that they're able to really understand

279
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:45,360
who they are on a soul level and what some of these karmic ties are. And it gives a perspective

280
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:50,800
of your life so that I think it's so easy, especially if we're going through a hard time,

281
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:55,280
to get really caught up in the, oh my gosh, I'm just going through it. I've gone through this

282
00:32:55,280 --> 00:33:02,000
so many times before. It's again and again and again. And to get really caught up in the victim

283
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:07,520
mentality. And I think sometimes it's really warranted. Like I know I've been there many times.

284
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:13,840
I think we all have. And I think my hope with this reading is to offer people a perspective to

285
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:22,000
feel validated for their pain and to feel like they are safe to be able to grieve the challenges of it

286
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:29,520
and to hold safe space for that aspect as well as create safe space to remind them of their power

287
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:36,160
and how it's all divine and it's all happening so that they can really ascend into who they really

288
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:42,320
are. And so yeah, so that's the soul contract reading. And then the energy cycles essentially

289
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:51,280
takes what we understand in our contract and uses that as a guide on how to navigate some of the

290
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:58,160
cycles, energetic cycles that we're moving through currently or in the upcoming year ahead. So

291
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:04,560
many people are moving through a Saturn return right now if you've got a Saturn in Pisces.

292
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:13,600
And that is an energy cycle of establishing the foundations that are really authentic to who your

293
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:18,960
soul really is. Right. I think at the very base of it, that's what Saturn returns offer. So I see

294
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:23,600
many clients and we might go into, okay, you're moving through your Saturn return right now.

295
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:30,320
How can you navigate this? Not just from a practical standpoint, but from a really authentic

296
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:37,440
soul aligned standpoint. And so really helping people navigate different situations or

297
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:44,800
circumstances that their life is presenting right here and in the upcoming year or so ahead

298
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:52,080
so that they can come into deeper embodiment of their purpose. And so both of these readings really

299
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:57,920
offer a perspective of deeper embodiment in their own way, but just depending on what's alive for

300
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:05,200
you right now, are you in a place where you're wanting to discover and gain greater perspective on

301
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:12,960
what your soul is here to do from a wider grand scheme sort of perspective? Or are you

302
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:20,400
going through a breakup or did you just lose a job or things are really intense and difficult

303
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:24,240
right now? You're going through a friendship breakup or something like that. And you're really

304
00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:33,040
needing safe space to grieve that, to process that and to receive some guidance from the cosmos

305
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:39,760
and the universe on how you can step into authenticity with yourself and navigating these

306
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:45,120
difficult or beautiful times. It doesn't necessarily have to be a challenging time. It can be something

307
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:51,040
beautiful too. How can you harness that to your highest self and harness that for your greatest

308
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:59,760
power? So those are those two sessions. And then my third one-on-one offering is a frequency

309
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:06,320
attunement session. And so we really tap into a one-on-one space where I utilize sound healing

310
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:13,440
tools as well as channeled guidance around what's alive for you right now. So someone might come in

311
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:22,240
around wanting to manifest love into their life, let's say. And I might tap into them intuitively

312
00:36:22,240 --> 00:36:28,000
first and say, okay, awesome. I'm looking at the heart chakra. I'm looking at the sacral. I'm really

313
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:35,200
feeling into your energy centers of attraction for love. Where are those at? What's alive for you?

314
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:40,240
How is that really unique to you? And then based upon that, I will start channeling

315
00:36:40,240 --> 00:36:50,640
really a guided journey on taking their imagination, their spirit to a place to journey through what

316
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:57,360
love really is for them and getting really clear on that in a really authentic way. And then

317
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:03,520
utilizing the sound healing frequencies to support that and shift and change as the channel

318
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:10,080
guidance shifts and change. And so each journey is completely customized to each person. But

319
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:16,880
in essence, that's what we do. And then of course, I'll deliver some channel messages that those come

320
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:24,320
through at the end. But really is an amazing healing session for people if they're wanting to

321
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:30,640
implement some of the stuff that maybe we talked about in the readings more deeply into their lives.

322
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:39,680
So that is that. And then I also offer a three-month coaching container where we take all of this

323
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:45,680
fun information around our sole purpose and navigating the energy cycles and being in alignment

324
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:52,400
with our true purpose and essence and really creating a customized journey for people throughout

325
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:59,680
12 weeks where they can really embody different parts of who they are through using the different

326
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:05,360
tools and embodying their astrology, not just learning it, but really living it and creating

327
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:13,120
a journey for people to learn how to do that. So yeah, that's a little bit about my offerings.

328
00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:17,680
Awesome. Awesome. Those are beautiful. Thanks for sharing those. I feel like we'll have

329
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:26,480
some people listening who are like, ooh, yeah, so cool. And I know that you really tap into your

330
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:32,640
psychic gifts a lot when you're working with people. And so I was curious if there's anything

331
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:38,560
that you're picking up for me. Right now. Absolutely. Okay, let me tap in for a moment.

332
00:38:46,720 --> 00:38:54,240
Interesting. Okay, so what I'm sensing from you, your third eye is so open. It's so funny. It takes

333
00:38:54,240 --> 00:39:00,880
up this much of your forehead. It feels like it's so open. It's like eyes on a roller coaster.

334
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:08,240
It's sort of so fun. I love that. It's wide open. And I'm also feeling like, ooh, some interesting

335
00:39:08,240 --> 00:39:12,160
stuff happening right behind your ear chakras. So I don't know if you're going through a little bit

336
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:21,120
of a clear audience activation, like channeling music or like using your intuitive sense in the,

337
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:27,760
from the perspective of like hearing intuitive insight or hearing messages or hearing a song

338
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:33,440
that resonates. That was a perfect right moment or overhearing a conversation that you needed to hear

339
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:38,640
to like come into, like to experience some sort of synchronicity. So I'm feeling a little bit of

340
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:44,720
like this, almost like pressure, but it feels like this contraction and expansion that's happening

341
00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:49,520
a little bit right behind your ear chakras. So I'm almost wanting like to do through the sound

342
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:55,120
healing like a little bit of support around those ear chakras to really like help them

343
00:39:55,120 --> 00:40:00,880
settle in to their activation a little bit. Does that feel resonant for you? So it's funny. I can

344
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:07,280
actually like feel like a warmth like there in my head right now too, like behind my ears, like the

345
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:14,960
whole back bottom area of my head. Yeah. So we're feeling it together. Okay. So fascinating. Yeah,

346
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:21,440
it was, it was really like, it goes all the way around for sure. Yeah, that feels definitely

347
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:28,400
like some clear audience. That's like, what's the word? Sort of like it's coming into its net,

348
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:33,120
like it's graduating into its next level. But before we graduate into our next level through

349
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:38,960
our different, especially our intuitive chakras, there can be like a little bit of like compression

350
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:44,800
and expansion, it can actually ache a little bit. And so there are sentient symptoms. And so I'm

351
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:49,920
wanting to like just support those a little bit. And yeah, even the mount and really give them some

352
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:57,680
attention because they're so funny. I almost get like a little, like I can hear almost like they're

353
00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:04,480
their own beings that are like, yes, yes, this is so good. I love that so much. So yes, your chakras,

354
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:12,000
we've got you. Oh, sweet. Yeah, of course. So yeah, that feels that feels really complete there.

355
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:16,640
I think that would be good to do a little sound healing to really tap into

356
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:23,360
some of that balancing and like ascension symptoms support of the ear chakras.

357
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:29,600
Yeah, you know, what's so funny is throughout this whole podcast episode, as you've been speaking,

358
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:35,440
I've been hearing your voice reverberate on the bowl. And I'm hearing literally like a little

359
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:45,920
pretty often. So wonder if that's relating. That is so fascinating. I'm sure, I'm sure. I've been

360
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:55,280
hearing like every every now and again little like ringing or like, yeah, vibration. So I love that.

361
00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:59,200
So fun. I'm excited. Me too. Let's dive in. Okay, I love it.

362
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:07,200
Okay.

363
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:27,200
Right.

364
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:47,200
So

365
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:17,200
so

366
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:47,200
so

367
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:17,200
so

368
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:47,200
so

369
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:17,200
so

370
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:27,200
so

371
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:37,200
that was beautiful. Thank you. Thank you so much. Oh, I feel so good. They're so powerful.

372
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:51,200
Hey, so lovely. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. And to leave our viewers with one more thing, our viewers, our listeners, how can they connect with you?

373
00:45:51,200 --> 00:46:11,200
Yeah, so I love connecting with people in person as well as online, but I'm definitely an in-person girlie. I love the in-person connection. So I am hosting events at Nurture bi-weekly now. So lots of opportunity there. I am there all of the time with just my one-on-one practice as well as on social media.

374
00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:21,200
Which is at alchemistic healing and maybe you could link it because like, it's a it's a unique spelling. So sometimes it can be harder to look it up just by listening. So through Instagram as well as reach out to me on my website and connect. I love that.

375
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:41,200
Get to know people and just hear their stories. And you know, I think what I feel the most passionate about is witnessing the stories that I'm going through. And I think that's a really interesting thing.

376
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:57,200
I love to get to know people and just hear their stories. And you know, I think what I feel the most passionate about is witnessing the story and the purpose of each individual person because it's so unique with every person you meet.

377
00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:15,200
We were talking a little bit about that when we started recording. And I think furthermore, like even past what I'm doing in my work, I really, really care just about experiencing and witnessing the gifts of others.

378
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:28,200
And I think that my soul is so curious and fascinated by it. So yeah, connect with me anyway and show me who you are. I want to listen. I want to learn and love to connect. So yeah.

379
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:44,200
Amazing. Sounds wonderful. Yes, Chelsea's giving bi-weekly, every other week group sound healings at Nurture. So if you're local to Denver, you can find those out right on visitnurture.com's website as well as alchemistichealing.com.

380
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:54,200
Thank you so much, Chelsea, for being here. Oh my gosh. Thank you so much. This was such an honor. And I really, really appreciate you for having me.

381
00:47:54,200 --> 00:48:18,200
Thank you. Thanks for listening and we will see you all next week.
