The Spiritual Feminist

Podcast

#13 Crystals, Creativity and Spiritual Awakening ~ w/ Caressa Hesselmann

October 7, 2019
caressa.jpg
I am so happy to have Caressa on the podcast today! I found Caressa on Instagram a while back, and since then we have connected over our mutual interest in spirituality, yoga, crystals, creativity, artโ€ฆ basically everything that we cover in this episode ๐Ÿ™‚

We recorded this episode after I spent the day at a One Day Retreat co-facilitated by Caressa, where we did yoga, intuitive painting and made a crystal grid. This inspiring day was the catalyst for our conversation and I really think that the energy from that day radiates from our chats. I am so grateful I get to call Caressa my friend now. She is a special soul ~ from her spiritual journey to her work now, she inspires me every day to follow my heart (and to give myself the permission slip to make really ugly paintings!!!!!). Hopefully youโ€™ll feel both of those things too, listening to this. In the episode, we discuss the One Day Retreats – check out their website to see what days they organise in the months coming up. Caressa points to the book Crystals for Healing by Karen Frazier as a good starting point for working with crystals. ~ Follow Caressa on Instagram (@itscaressa) and visit her website withcaressa.nl for her beautiful crystal grids, essential oils and so much more.

~ Don’t forget to subscribe! There is a new episode waiting for you every fortnight.

~ Join the community on Instagram ~ and let me know what you thought of this episode! I would love to hear from you.

~ Music credits go to www.purple-planet.com.

The Spiritual Fem is an online platform and a safe space for women who’d like to dive deeper into feminism, spirituality and womanhood ~ but simply don’t know where to begin. As a Spiritual Feminist, I believe that connecting to spirituality can give you a deeper experience of life. This podcast is about exploring that connection within ourselves and with everything around us. I hope you will leave this episode feeling inspired and reconnected to your female fire.

~ Nothing is missing, you are already whole. Everything you need, you already carry within you.

I didn't know life could feel like this... โ 
โ 
In the past few months, an internal shift has taken place. โ 
โœจ I feel abundant, regardless of how much money is in the bank. โ 
โœจ I feel spacious, even though I literally moved into a tiny house together with my partner. โ 
โœจ I feel connected to our community, even though all the offerings inside my heart aren't out into the world yet (coming soon!) and I've been more offline than ever. โ 
โ 
Somethings clicked into place, and I thank all the inner work of the past 6+ years for it. โ 
โ 
It's not so much the external changes that have provided this shift. I could still be knee deep into self doubt or scarcity, no matter the situation. It's not that. โ 
โ 
It's that I'm finally embodying where my mindset was - or wanted to be -  all along. My nervous system can relax within all the change and open-mindedness of my current work & life situation. I feel confident about where I'm headed. I feel safe, secure and loved from within. โ 
โ 
Whew, I am so grateful for that. โ 
And I wish the exact same for you. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผโ 
โ 
Is your heart craving this embodied and empowered change this year? Is 2023 the year you're going to put yourself first, dive deep into your inner world and come out the other side trusting your intuition, feeling happy and confident? โ 
โ 
Allow me to support you on this journey. Check the link in bio or my stories for the link to book your 30 minute discovery call - I'm opening up two spaces to work with me 1:1 for the next 6 or 12 months. So, if the idea of having an intuitive mentor cheering you on and supporting you through the highs and lows of your journey, get yourself a discovery call with me *no strings attached* and let's see how I can support you this year! โ 
โ 
It would be an honour to hold space for you x ๐Ÿงกโ

2022 - you've been so good to me! ๐Ÿงกโ 
โ 
With the first ever retreat, the move to the tiny house, and all of its lessons and blessings in between, I've absolutely loved this year. โ 
โ 
And I can feel that it's time to integrate these experiences even deeper in the time to come. โ 
I'll be taking a bit of a break in posting regularly and creating, because I feel like there is so much that wants to be shared and offered that I need to sit with that first. โ 
โ 
From January onwards you can check out all the details for the July retreat I'll be hosting with @drsarahcoxon & when I'll be back it'll be with an incredible community-based virtual experience too. I can feel it brewing. It just needs beautiful, luscious and indulgent time, patience and tending. โ 
โ 
I'll see you very soon & for now, have a wonderful end to 2022 and a magical start to 2023. โœจ So much love for you, sister x

A word of the year can be a great anchor to reinspire your intentions through the 12 months. โ 
โ 
But that can also feel like a lot of pressure on just 1 simple word! โ 
โ 
So what if the process has less to do with 'choosing' the 'perfect' one and more about calling in what feels most supportive for the direction you'd like to take this year? โ 
โ 
I always get a lot of questions about choosing a word of the year around this time, especially because I've made it our tradition to record a yearly podcast on it (which is now up!). But I can hardly ever give you a good answer on the process of choosing it because to me, it's not really a choice. The word comes to me, usually a few weeks or even months before the previous year closes, and I dance with it for a bit before my heart will anchor on it. โ 
โ 
It's an intuitive process in collaboration with the Universe. โ 
So my invitation for you if you're craving to settle on a word for the new year, is to plant a seed with the energy around you to show you some options. Stay open to words, sentences, and energy flowing your way after you've done that. And see what feels exciting, expansive, supportive and maybe a little terrifying to anchor down your new year! โ 
โ 
Check out the latest episode of the Spiritual Feminist podcast to hear me talk about my process with last year's word and my new 2023 addition. I also include journal prompts and a card pull to help you feel supported during this ritualistic time! โ 
โ 
What's your 2023 word? (or tell me your 2022 word and how it served you!)

Let's make a self care list together...! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผโ 
โ 
In a mentoring call the other week my client expressed how sometimes she felt overwhelmed when she had time to herself. Even in her down time, she felt the pressure to be productive and 'make the most of it'. โ 
โ 
Gah... can't we all relate?! ๐Ÿ˜žโ 
โ 
During the session, I invited her to create a list of 5 things that made her heart feel good. Things such as journaling, reading, and guided meditations. And then we created a practice around how she could enjoy these things without feeling like there was a right or wrong way to do so, and instead, invited her to focus on what felt good & what expanded her heart in that moment. โ 
We journeyed back to what felt pretty damn good, without there needing to be expectation or pressure. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผโ 
โ 
This is hard work. Deep work. Healing work. ๐Ÿงกโ 
It sounds so simple, but sometimes reading a book without being distracted or creating a nr.-of-pages-goal is the most rebellious thing you can do for your empowerment journey. ๐Ÿ”ฅโ

If you have a list (or would like to create one), let me know what nourishes your heart! And if you'd like to receive tools and space to release the pressure around your self care and empowerment journey, maybe 1:1 mentorship is the one for you. DM me for more details ! x

Let's make a self care list together...! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผโ  โ  In a mentoring call the other week my client expressed how sometimes she felt overwhelmed when she had time to herself. Even in her down time, she felt the pressure to be productive and 'make the most of it'. โ  โ  Gah... can't we all relate?! ๐Ÿ˜žโ  โ  During the session, I invited her to create a list of 5 things that made her heart feel good. Things such as journaling, reading, and guided meditations. And then we created a practice around how she could enjoy these things without feeling like there was a right or wrong way to do so, and instead, invited her to focus on what felt good & what expanded her heart in that moment. โ  We journeyed back to what felt pretty damn good, without there needing to be expectation or pressure. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผโ  โ  This is hard work.
