Learn about the differences between Alzheimer's and dementia, and how Alzheimer's disease progresses. We talk about why catching the disease early can make a big difference. Dr. Sharon Cohen and Dr. Yaakov Stern walk us through the stages of Alzheimer's disease, from when there are no symptoms to when memory issues start to show. They explain the stages of Alzheimer’s and how it develops over time. We also hear from Kelly, who explains her personal experiences and concerns about developing Alzheimer’s, and what she does about it.

How to heal our body's pains (magically) 1:03:33

10 napja1:03:33

1:03:33

On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole is sharing ‘Magical Healing 101’. Exploring her perspective on how to heal our body’s physical pains by entering an initiation into our witch and learning to harness alternative healing ‘magic’, she invites listeners into a new ‘worldview’ of healing science and art that contrasts to the ‘mainstream’ way. Nicole discusses her own journey with pains like chronic fatigue, menstrual pains - endometriosis - and thyroid imbalances, exploring ‘allopathic’ versus ‘holistic’ healing, emphasising the need to illuminate underlying causes of physical pains. In this episode Nicole explores the importance of expressing our uniqueness (rather than suppressing ourselves, which is the ‘cause’ of disease), explaining some universal laws. She invites you to claim your power to heal yourself, sharing how we can do that by learning to work with our ‘inner apothecary’ of archetypal remedies, and offering some ‘practical’ steps to begin this - along with an invitation to reclaim your self-healing power. What You’ll Learn from this Episode: Mainstream medicine (allopathy) differs in its worldview about ‘quick fix’ healing to alternative, holistic approaches which focus on unsuppressing our souls and principles of ‘like cures like’ Because of that, mainstream medicine can struggle to heal ‘mysterious’ pains that are really pointing us towards the deeper, root-cause underlying patterns The Witch can help us to reclaim our power - our pains are often unseen ‘initiations’ into our self-healing gifts - and a deeper understanding of ourselves True healing requires us to not suppress, but address underlying emotional and psychological causes that manifest physical symptoms Archetypal Remedies offer both a psychological and physical map to our healing - and learning to harness our ‘inner apothecary’ of remedies can empower us to heal ourselves This requires an openness to a new worldview, perhaps a slower pace of healing - and being willing to be in the messiness of discovery - which we can feel resistance to in a world where we’ve been taught there’s a ‘quick fix’, but it’s worth it when it truly heals us Resources and things that we spoke about: Join our Secret Witch’s Apothecary Membership: Register your Interest here: https://www.nicolebarton.co.uk/membership Our Social Links: Tiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@archetypalapothecary Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/iamnicolebarton/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/archetypalapothecary/ You Tube - https://www.youtube.com/@secretwitchsociety Join our free Secret Witch Sisterhood: http://www.facebook.com/groups/secretwitch Website: http://www.nicolebarton.co.uk Youtube Episode: https://youtu.be/PXfhplul4zc Thank you for listening, we’d love to know what comes alive for you in this week’s episode, so please let us know.

How 'practical witchcraft' and 'ritual' can help us reclaim our self-healing power 1:01:40

24 napja1:01:40

1:01:40

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Emma Griffin. Described as a real-life embodiment of Molly Weasley from Harry Potter, Emma is a modern-day full-time witch, healer, and author whose work guides women back to alignment by reconnecting with the ancient wisdom of their ancestors. Rooted in the interconnectedness of nature and the soul, Emma’s teachings aim to awaken the innate magic within us all, helping women rediscover their purpose and authentic selves. Emma’s new book, ‘The Witch’s Way Home’ serves as a roadmap for self-discovery, healing, and stepping into authentic power. In this juicy episode we explore Emma’s personal journey, marked by moments of stress, illness, grief, and self-discovery, and how it awakened her to the transformative self-healing power of witchcraft and ritual. Exploring challenges like infertility and cancer diagnosis, we explore how healing the ‘witch wound’ - aka reclaiming our true, authentic full expression of who we are - can help us manifest health. Diving into ancient, feminine, ancestral wisdom, seasonal living, emotional release - and the importance of presence, self-love and sisterhood - we explored the healing process and how the witch can help us reclaim ourselves. What You’ll Learn from this Episode: Witchcraft can save our lives - literally. By embracing the power, magic and authenticity of the witch, we can heal on all different levels - including physical, mental-emotional and spiritual Whether we are ‘witches’ or not, the route of healing is really via healing our suppression and suppressed trauma - and reclaiming our authentic voices (which the witch holds a mirror to) To heal, requires us to face the ‘witch wound’ - we have to overcome societal judgement and fear of being a witch and sharing our true, authentic self-expression As we do, bravely own who we are - whether that’s a witch or something else - we connect more deeply to those who are like us (including our dream clients, if we are here to be healers) We must embrace the ancient wisdom of our ancestors - they knew that the real route of healing is through story-telling around the fire, ritual, creativity, presence, seasonal living, sisterhood and self-discovery There is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ in practical witchcraft and ritual - it’s really individualised and intuitive, and we can play with things to see what works for us (and keep a journal of discovery to note what does and what doesn’t) Ritual and witchcraft practices do not have to be long and elaborate - we can weave them into our day, just bringing ourselves to presence and setting intentions.

How to self-heal 'mysterious' illness (and why this is also a 'mysterious' call to your witch) 1:04:32

5 weeks1:04:32

1:04:32

On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole explores her radical approach to health which views ‘mysterious illness’ as a transformative initiation into self-healing and a sacred call to our witchy healing gifts. Nicole’s point of view is that illnesses that often go unexplained by mainstream medicine - such as chronic fatigue syndrome, ME, burn-out, auto-immune issues and menstrual disorders like endometriosis - are calls to embrace our own magical healing power and wisdom. In this episode, whilst honouring the depths of darkness that mysterious dis-ease can take us to, Nicole shares the importance of seeing illness not as something ‘victimising’ (as our society is conditioned), but an opportunity for personal healing and deeper connection to our bodies, inspiring self-love and feminine empowerment that awakens our inner witch and connects us to our self-healing inner apothecary. She also shares some deeper self-enquiry prompts, and explores her way of mapping our health. What You’ll Learn from this Episode: Mysterious illnesses - including conditions like chronic fatigue, autoimmune issues, and feminine cycle symptoms - are a secret call to our ‘inner witch’ and her self-healing power and magic Our illnesses are actually ‘initiations’ - doorways to parts of ourselves that we’ve not before seen, rather than conditions that are to be passively endured - though this challenges mainstream medical and societal norms around ‘health’ which often has us feel victim to health challenges According to universal magical healing laws and principles, suppression is the true cause of dis-ease - anywhere we suppress, creates an energetic block and energy get stuck The law of ‘like cures like’ means that what ‘causes’ something will also ‘cure’ it. Holding up a mirror to aspects within ourselves offers us self-reflection that stimulates ‘self-healing’ We can heal ourselves - by working with the elements of ‘self-illumination’ and ‘self-love’ (via harnessing ‘archetypal remedies’ as a ‘mirror’ to lost aspects of ourselves that we’ve shamed), which helps us un-suppress aspects of ourselves that have been hidden and have manifested illness As we heal ourselves, our wounds become our gifts - and that helps us to live our destiny as the healer witches we came here to be We can also map our healing in a Soul Map, which is also a tool we can harness to know our gifts.

How to heal by reclaiming your 'True Feminine' - the Witch as you've not yet met her 1:10:05

7 weeks1:10:05

1:10:05

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Sri Namaste Moore. Sri Namaste and her husband Baba Richard are co-owners of InfiniteCouple Enterprises rooted in transforming lives and legacies. As an Oracle, Mystic, Master Metaphysician, and Wonder Worker, Sri Namaste’s passion is to realign men and women to their innate harmony, honoring their distinctions while celebrating their synergy. She seamlessly integrates metaphysics, mysticism, and elegant philosophical truths, delivering laser-sharp clarity with practical applications. Her work is a testament to leadership, wisdom, and the boundless potential of those who dare to live their genius and leave an indelible legacy. In this episode we explore Namaste’s profound, radical worldview of what it means to embody the ‘True Feminine’ (and how the Feminine can be both ‘yin’ and ‘yang’, and we don’t have an ‘inner Masculine’’). We dived into the distinction between ‘feminist’ and ‘feminine’, and the cultural conditioning, societal fear and trauma we innocently hold around the Masculine, which often has us ‘competing’ with men for ‘power’, rather than embracing our polarity and that we *both* have different, unique gifts. We reflected on the different gifts - and explore how the witch’s gift is really to heal through love, doing the inner work and embracing the receptive Feminine to work her mysterious magic, rather than rebel against the patriarchy. Namaste also shared a practical womb invitation for beginning to connect with our Feminine ‘essence’ (and shared why that’s different to our Feminine ‘energy’). What You’ll Learn from this Episode: There’s a difference between being a ‘Feminist’ and being ‘Feminine’ - and the witch can (innocently) lean towards being ‘feminist’; competing with, and trying to be, men, rather than embodying the qualities of being feminine that can help us to feel true joy, harmony and synergy - and to be who we came here to be This is a cultural wounding around the Feminine, which Namaste believes is often misunderstood as having an ‘inner masculine’. She believes we don’t host ‘inner masculine’; instead, women have Feminine yin *and* yang - Goddess Kali being a great example of Feminine yang, and it still being distinctly feminine essence There’s a distinction Namaste makes around Feminine ‘energy’ versus ‘essence’, and that our True Feminine is found in our essence, and can be viscerally connected to via our bodies. Embracing our essences, rather than focusing on energy is helpful to reclaim the True Feminine The Masculine and Feminine have different gifts that help us create harmony and synergy - they are both unique and yet complementary to each other. For example, men’s power is about impact, which is more direct, hard and external, whereas women’s power is about influence, relating and subtle heart-based change There is much understandable trauma around this topic - and fear of the ‘patriarchy’ (especially for the witch) - and so we are called to work through this trauma with love and patience (Namaste offers a womb practice for this). We can transform traumas by reclaiming the gifts and understanding they bring, turning our wounds into sources of power and insight. What’s reflected in the outside world often holds a mirror to more collective patterns - and in the world at the moment there’s a lot of fear around powerful Masculine figures, which are calling us into healing and integration of our Feminine essence to create feminine expression and empowerment.

Why sisterhood is vital in our healing (especially for your Secret Witch, who may want to hide) 1:09:13

9 weeks1:09:13

1:09:13

On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole is exploring the profound importance of ‘sisterhood’ in the healing journeys of women - especially those who are ‘Secret Witches’. She dives into how Secret Witches can feel resistance to sisterhood, yet being part of a supportive, magical community of likeminded women can truly transform our lives - helping us overcome fears, self-doubt, mistrust and the ‘witch wound’ that hold us back from having a voice and expressing our authentic selves and living our true destiny as healers. In this episode we explore the self-healing magic that sisterhood offers us - including self-reflection, a space for vulnerability, a place for discovering our gifts and gold via the mirror that others hold for us to our wounds and triggers. She explores how the ancient feminine wisdom of sisterhood offers provision of a safe and intentional space for us to engage in healing ceremony, share experiences and receive reflections that aid self-illumination - *if* we consciously choose to work with sisterhood this way - with sisters being remedies for us. What You’ll Learn from this Episode: For Secret Witches, there’s nothing so healing as sisterhood to help us learn how to fully express our true, authentic selves - it can help us overcome our fear of judgement and being outcast - and other fears we have around stepping into our witchy gifts Being able to be intimate with others is important in the journey of becoming a healer for ourselves - and in living our destiny as healers for others People are remedies and act as mirrors for our own self-illumination (aka loving healing) Safe spaces of vulnerability and reflection are so vital for our healing - especially in a world where we have learned to operate as silos (keeping ourselves disconnected and isolated in our masculinised culture) Sisterhood serves as a space in which we can discover our gifts, and practice honing our skills as healing practitioners There is opportunity for ‘reflection’ within conscious sisterhood spaces that allows us access to our own inner wisdom - which activates real healing (as opposed to advice and ‘quick fix’ solutions which take us away from our wisdom) True healing comes from within, facilitated by the supportive environment of a sisterhood that encourages self-reflection and personal growth Resources and things that we spoke about: Register Interest in our Secret Witch Membership: http://www.nicolebarton.co.uk/membership Social: Tiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@archetypalapothecary Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/iamnicolebarton/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/archetypalapothecary/ You Tube - https://www.youtube.com/@secretwitchsociety Join our Secret Witch Society: http://www.facebook.com/groups/secretwitch Website: http://www.nicolebarton.co.uk You Tube Episode link: https://youtu.be/wo7b2pCocP0 Thank you for listening, we’d love to know what comes alive for you in this week’s episode, so please let us know.

How to work more deeply with reiki and energetic alchemy for self-awakening 1:14:49

11 weeks1:14:49

1:14:49

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Yolanda Williams. Yolanda is a Reiki teacher and host of the fabulous ‘Reiki Radio’ podcast. She is an Energetic Alchemist, also certified in Wellness Counseling, through Cornell University. Her work facilitates new levels of self-connection and reveals the dynamics of mind, body and energy. Yolanda's classes include Usui Reiki, all levels, in San Diego, as well as mentoring and intuitive awakening courses, online. In this episode we explore all things ‘energetic alchemy’. We dived into Yolanda’s uniquely deep perspective of Reiki, investigating how it can be a powerful portal of ‘inner work’ and self-awakening that offers healing of the mind, body spirit - rather than something ‘external’ as it is often seen. We discussed some of the surface-level misunderstandings of reiki, and explore the nuances of how we can harness energetic alchemy for ourselves - beyond outsourcing our power to others - to actually peel back layers of ourselves, see where we are projecting, connect to our intuition and unlock hidden aspects of ourselves. Including our unique gifts! What You’ll Learn from this Episode: When we first feel a call to energetic alchemy, we can feel alone in our journey - we might know we are sensitive, but can feel ‘weird’ or ‘odd’ in that. Energy healing can help us begin to understand this aspect of ourselves - in whatever form that takes Reiki is a tool that can help us find a way into energy healing - and it can be interacted with differently to how we commonly know it to be harnessed. In other words, we can harness energetic alchemy for ‘ourselves’ - rather than simply outsourcing our healing to others - and in doing so, we can own our power to peel back layers and go on an inner journey of self-awakening and transformation There’s an interconnectedness between mind, body and spirit - we can’t disconnect it, and as we begin to look inwards to what’s been suppressed, healing manifests - energy healing helps us learn we can choose that process consciously Energetic alchemy can help us reclaim the gifts of being a sensitive woman and learn how to distinguish our energy from others, empowering our own self-regulation and intuition Not everyone will experience their intuition in the same way - some are visual, some feel things, some know things - and as we become more aware of our own sensitivities and gifts, we can learn to embrace our intuition more fully There’s an importance in ascending into a spiritual path to see what’s ‘the same’ - *and* also surrendering to being the physical ‘vessel’ that collects the rain - aka descending into the body and embracing our uniqueness. All energetic alchemy tools are bringing us ‘home’ to both of these things.

Sharing My Magical Voice and Risking Being Burned at the Stake - Special Interview with Nicole Celebrating 100 Episodes 1:21:56

13 weeks1:21:56

1:21:56

On this unique, celebratory 100th episode of the Secret Witch Show today Jamie Wozny takes the hostess role for a special interview with Creatrix of the show, Nicole Barton. Nicole is a witch on a mission to help Secret Witches - aka secretly magical women who hide their power - to live their true destiny by expressing their unapologetic magic. She does this by helping women to heal themselves, discover their gifts and heal the fear of expressing their authentic selves. Through her Top 10% Secret Witch Show podcast and her Archetypal Apothecary™ healing modality - which have helped multiple TENS of thousands of listeners - Nicole guides women to understand their soul’s unique plan and harness it to become the magical healer witches their souls were destined to be. In this episode we dived into how and why Nicole created the Secret Witch show, how she healed herself through the show by embodying her Feminine power and expressing her magical voice - and how she risked being burned at the stake for her true expression - celebrating all the magic and joy that has been created along the way! We explored that the show has become an ‘apothecary’, serving archetypal medicine in each episode, and explored the themes of voice liberation, vulnerability and the healing journey with the witch as an archetypal remedy in her own right. Nicole wants to offer a special thanks to Jamie Wozny for being an incredible hostess for this episode - I love you, woman. What You’ll Learn from this Episode: The Secret Witch is a sensitive woman who is secretly powerful and magical and longs to live her destiny but who feels burdened and burned out by her mundane life of busyness where she runs around people-pleasing and feels exhausted. By working with the ‘witch’ as a mirror for aspects of ourselves we have shamed, we can open to our inner apothecary for self-healing, discover our healing gifts and learn to express them in the world The Witch as an archetypal remedy - aka a lens for self-discovery - represents healing, creation and feminine power and true soul expression - and that’s what she helps us reclaim - if we can have a courageous, vulnerable, open heart to our possibility There can be a lot of fear that arises in the journey of self-healing and becoming a healer. That’s normal - our fear is often a confirmation of the path we are being called to. *And* embracing and sharing our vulnerability, fears and authentic selves is crucial in reclaiming our voice and power - even (and especially when people think we are ‘weird’). Reclaiming our gifts and voice is an embodied journey of ‘living into’ our medicine. We each have our own unique archetypal remedy to share - and we have to reclaim our gifts through an embodied experience, rather than learning intellectually - and working with archetypal remedies is a great way to do this. The podcast is a great example of how Nicole lived into her medicine as she listened to the intuitive nudges, and healed and expanded herself, leaning into her true soul expression. Healing is an ongoing process; it will never be ‘complete’ - the real gift is learning the art and science of loving, compassionate self-healing so we can provide that for ourselves throughout our lives, learning to tenderly meet challenges and reclaim our gifts from our wounds - and celebrate our small victories, taking the next aligned-action as we go Sharing our voice can be scary, because of the witch wound - and if we are fearing that, it’s just a sign there’s more healing to do of our inner witch (who has often experienced much trauma in her lifetime). This is something that Nicole has lived into - and is still living into - as she’s journeyed with creating the podcast - and here we are, with a treasure trove of 100 episodes later, with a Top 10% show that has helped thousands of women! It’s so worth the journey.

How to express your Feminine magic - unapologetically - in a world where that's terrifying 58:45

15 weeks58:45

58:45

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Sophie French. Sophie supports women to unlock and unleash their unique expression and gifts into the world, to tap into their heart's desires and to go for them with deep self-trust and self-belief. She utilities a combination of neuro-linguistic programming, emotional release and embodiment practices along with energy and strategy work to provide a holistic approach to the woman who is ready to be all she's ever wanted. In this vibrant episode Nicole and Sophie dive into all things ‘unapologetic feminine soul expression’, exploring how self-illuminating where we have suppressed ourselves (rather than submitting to pathologising things like ‘depression’) helps us heal and discover our true selves and embrace our creative soul expression - and how that can be a healing remedy for others, in ways we don’t always expect. Performing her poetry for us and exploring how she rebirthed herself through it, Sophie explores how her self-expression and story-telling became a form of alchemy of darkness to light, and how she tended her nervous system to be able to express her true self in a world where that’s scary. What You’ll Learn from this Episode: It is vital to our mental and physical health to live out our full, unapologetic expression - numbing and suppressing our true selves literally has us become burned out, depressed and anxious We can begin to heal through unsuppressing ourselves, via self-discovery - which includes facing our darkness, feeling everything fully and challenging the societal tendency to numb and avoid discomfort Expressing our emotions can be an alchemical process which unlocks deeper creativity and joy - Sophie’s poetry is a great example of this deep expression of her soul, and came through her in this alchemical way - as I always say, our gifts are found in our wounds That said, we can consciously choose the edge we meet, giving ourselves permission to go at our own pace and choose when we go in - this is an intentional healing process of soul-expression It’s important to regulate our nervous systems - much more important than it is made out to be in our society so we can express safely. We must create space for the slowness of this process Healing can be found in anything that has us back in touch with feeling ‘alive’ - not just traditional ‘remedies’ but through music, and dance, or anything that has us feel alive and connected.

On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole is diving into all things ‘manifestation’ of our magical destiny as aspiring healers, exploring the challenges of manifesting our dream lives, the importance of self-healing, permission-giving and embracing our inner power. She explores the power of the witch - and the difference between manifesting from wounding versus love. Exploring the deeper nuances of the law of ‘manifestation’ (one of 8 elements of the Secret Witch path), Nicole emphasises the importance of healing self-illumination of our unconscious wounding so that we can choose to create what we desire. She invites you to tune into your body, open your heart and recognise the hidden power you do already have to create whatever your heart longs for - if you open to the possibility of your inner witch and her apothecary within to help you peel back the layers of trauma and open to magic. What You’ll Learn from this Episode: Manifestation is an important element in the journey of embracing our gifts as healers - yet it has a nuance that is often misunderstood in the ‘self-help’ world (in that we are *already* powerful creatrixes) We can begin to create what our heart desires by self-healing, and addressing and loving our unconscious inner-wounds, rather than attempting to sticky-plaster, quick fix or bypass them with affirmations We innocently manifest all kinds of thing we don’t want from unconscious wounds - physical health issues, such as burn out, often manifest from deeper underlying traumas that have been suppressed - and healing is in learning to express them and become more conscious To truly manifest a more magical life, we must give ourselves permission to embrace our fears and desires, peeling back the layers, welcoming them and loving them into liberation The witch can help us do that, initiating us into our creatrix power, as well as our healing power We must love our inner little girl who often feels fear to create our dreams - she’s the one often unconsciously creating what we don’t want (innocently) - and if we love her, and make her feel safe, this is the way to true healing and transformation - and embracing our gifts.

How to follow the intuitive whispers and become who you really are 51:40

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Maude Hirst. Maude is a Meditation Specialist, Founder, Speaker, Coach, and Author of the Intuitive Whispers Oracle Deck specialising in making meditation and its life-changing benefits accessible to all. Maude was an actress best known for playing Helga in the hit TV show Vikings before becoming a leading wellness practitioner and founder of the bespoke meditation company EnergyRise. In this episode we dived into the importance of connecting to our ‘intuitive whispers’ in the journey of healing transformation - and how to deepen into our wisdom so we can embrace our true selves. Exploring Maude’s personal journey of navigating darkness in her life, she highlighted the four stages of healing and how she journeyed from a career in acting - where she felt disconnected - to her spiritual awakening and how she learned to trust her intuitive nudges to embrace who she is, and create an Oracle Deck that helps others access their own intuition. Listen to the end for our perfect card pull! What You’ll Learn from this Episode: We are all ‘actresses’ in life; most of us need to learn how to stop wearing masks and playing ‘character roles’ and truly embrace our authentic selves - and we can begin this journey by tuning into our intuitive whispers The process of healing transformation requires four stages - Listening (to our intuition), Clearing (our limiting beliefs), Rebuilding (consciously creating our true self), and Action (taking aligned steps) Fear can come up in the journey of connecting to our intuitive whispers - and it’s important to welcome and embrace that, moving through it, rather than avoiding it - darkness is part of the journey to ourselves Tuning into our intuition is a daily practice - connecting to our bodies and grounding into nature can really help us to hear ourselves - as can intuitive journaling, or pulling Oracle cards It can be challenging to own who we are - especially as healer witches - because there is societal conditioning to overcome - that’s just another layer of the onion to be healed, and an invitation into the next spiral around the stages of healing transformation.

How to heal ourselves with our own 'Inner Apothecary' - so that we can pass that wisdom on as healers 53:54

21 weeks53:54

53:54

On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole is exploring the importance of self-healing using our ‘inner apothecary’, explaining what exactly that is, and how we can work with anything as a remedy symbolically for deep healing self-illumination work. She explores the role of the Witch (and the aspects of healer and creatrix) in accessing our apothecary for reclaiming lost parts of ourselves, encouraging listeners to know their power to heal themselves - physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. In this episode Nicole teaches about the art and science of magical healing and its universal laws, and how important it is to learn to work with these to heal ourselves so that we can become healing activators for others. She empowers you to be able to play with Archetypal Remedies for your own healing, so that you can one day become a guide to others on their healing journey. What You’ll Learn from this Episode: Healing is an art and a science, grounded in universal laws and principles - and when we take self-responsibility for learning this art and science, we can heal ourselves Physical manifestations are expressions of lost parts of our souls that are wanting to be reclaimed - and we can do this by working with Archetypal Remedies for self-healing We each have an “inner apothecary” of Archetypal Remedies - energy remedies that we can work with ourselves for self-illumination and healing Anything can be a remedy, as long as we work with it symbolically, intentionally and responsibly We can tune into our inner remedies through archetypes, symbols and nature - examples of Archetypal Remedies include the Rose, the Bee and the Moon - each of these things can teach us about lost, suppressed aspects of our souls (for example, the Bee is a symbol of our busyness) We each have a unique soul map of remedies to work with, and doing so helps us to heal, and reclaim our gifts As we heal ourselves, we become a remedy for others similar to us (“like cures like” principle) - and this is how we truly ‘become’ healer witches.

How to engage with shadow work to claim your inner magic as a healer 1:05:22

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Nikki Van De Car. Nikki is the author of over a dozen books on magic and crafting, including the bestselling ‘Practical Magic’. She is an indigenous creator, focusing on exploring the ways in which stories inform how we understand the world and ourselves. She is a woman in search of magic, in the crunch of leaves and the scratch of a pencil, the brush of lips on a temple, and the sound of voices raised in song. In this episode Nicole and Nikki delve into the shadow work and how our shadow can have us hiding ourselves (and our inner witch) - with Nikki sharing her story of how she embraced her identity as a witch by befriending her shadow. We discussed the importance and therapeutic value in feeling our emotions, welcoming and accepting ‘all’, integrating our darkness, and dispelling the stigmas around our fear, guilt and shame - especially for ‘Secret Witches’ who want to become healers. We explored the integration of our shadow through self-illumination - and how it can help us reclaim our wholeness and creativity. Nikki shared some ‘practical’ methods including a beautiful meditation, ritual, working with symbols and nature magic. What You’ll Learn from this Episode: Shadow work involves acknowledging and befriending the darker aspects of ourselves, rather than trying to eradicate them - this process helps us achieve self-illumination, self-healing and a return to wholeness We tend to suppress our inner witch as adults, though our inner child remembers a time when we were free to express that magic - and we can reclaim this with deconditioning Emotions such as anger, sadness and envy are best to be expressed, not suppressed - acknowledging and welcoming these emotions is essential for freedom and creativity Shadow magic doesn’t have to be something we carve huge chunks of time out to ‘do’ - we can integrate it into our every day, making shadow work and magic a part of our lives - by being in ongoing self loving illumination. That said, there are also lots of fun practical rituals we explored if you want to journey that way! Recognising and loving the inner child is crucial in shadow work - it’s helpful to remember that our shadow is really just the scared, childlike part of us, who wants love. We can provide that love by imagining we are speaking to this part of ourselves as if it were a best friend or a small child Resources and things that we spoke about: Social: Tiktok - @archetypalapothecary Instagram - @iamnicolebarton Instagram - @archetypalapothecary You Tube - https://www.youtube.com/@secretwitchsociety Join our Secret Witch Society: www.facebook.com/groups/secretwitch Our Next Group Journey: https://www.nicolebarton.co.uk/luna Website: www.nicolebarton.co.uk Nikki’s Website: nikkivandecar.com Nikki’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nikkivandecar Nikki’s New Books: The Wheel of the Year: A Guide to Sabbats, Lunar Cycles, and the Stars Above My Wheel of the Year: A Celebration of Nature's Magic Thank you for listening, we’d love to know what comes alive for you in this week’s episode, so please let us know.

How to create space for your healer witch in a busy, mundane world 56:50

25 weeks56:50

56:50

On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole explores one of the biggest challenges most Secret Witches face: how we can overcome the challenge of balancing our busy lives with our deeper calling to being a healer. She dived into the crucial topic of how to create space for our healer witch, offering a practical ‘workshopy’ episode and guided meditation for women who feel a deep spiritual calling to become healers, but struggle with self-doubt and burn-out - and don’t feel they have space to delve into the deep work. In this episode, as part of her #HundredHealers vision, Nicole provided both practical steps for time-management, mental and physical space creation and advice on how to integrate magic into our daily life - and a healing journey with an Archetypal Remedy for activation of the part of you that knows how to manifest a magical life: your inner Creatrix, also exploring what resistance to that really means for our healing. What You’ll Learn from this Episode: The fear and doubt that arises as part of becoming a healer is normal - and not a sign you’re not cut out for it (it’s the ‘Secret Witch’ wound - and just means there’s healing to do of your wounded healer) Feeling we are lacking time and space to do the deep work in our busy mundane lives is part of this wound - and wants some loving healing (the practical workshop and journey in this episode was potent for helping that) Cultural views often label necessary healing work as ‘selfish,’ ‘self-indulgent’ or ‘non-essential’ - a perspective that gets internalised by many women, making it harder to prioritise our spiritual growth Resistance is a healing invitation. It is showing us there's something butting up here against what we know - and we want to go into that with loving curiosity. Like: “why am I feeling resistance? What is my belief here?” There are some very practical steps we can take to create space for our witch - and, if we have resistance to those, it’s a sign there’s more healing to do around choosing ourselves and claiming our purpose as a healer - we can do this by journeying with Archetypal Remedies (and particularly the Creatrix, who knows her manifesting power) Resources and things that we spoke about: Join our upcoming 5 week journey with Archetypal Luna: www.nicolebarton.co.uk/luna Listen to the show on the “How, What and Why of Archetypal Remedies” : www.nicolebarton.co.uk/secret-witch-podcast/episode-68 Download our Starter Pack - www.nicolebarton.co.uk/sign-up Social: Tiktok - @archetypalapothecary Instagram - @iamnicolebarton Instagram - @archetypalapothecary You Tube - https://www.youtube.com/@secretwitchsociety Join our Secret Witch Society: www.facebook.com/groups/secretwitch Website: www.nicolebarton.co.uk Thank you for listening, we’d love to know what comes alive for you in this week’s episode, so please let us know.

How to work with the power of the moon to own our Feminine magic and gifts 49:32

On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole is exploring how women can connect with the power of the moon to reclaim their Feminine magic and gifts. She explains a ‘new’ magical way to harness the power of the moon - as a deep ‘archetypal’ symbol, or remedy - that can help secret witches overcome their fear and self-doubt of their magic, helping you get in tune with the moon for deep, healing self-illumination. In this episode, Nicole also provides more ‘practical’ guidance on cultivating a relationship with the moon, and deeper connection to your natural rhythms and cycles, helping you face any resistance to embracing your inner magic and healing gifts. She briefly explores spiritual ‘ascension’ versus soul ‘descension’ and how you can begin to own your unique gifts and step confidently into your role as a healer. What You’ll Learn from this Episode: So many magical women feel the deep fear of their inner magic - mostly struggling with doubting themselves, and feeling disconnected from their Feminine bodies, magic and unique gifts Many women feel the deep and symbolic call to the moon - but perhaps don’t realise that there’s more to her magic than meets the eye; Luna is an archetypal symbol that helps us reclaim our Feminine magic, mystery and stop doubting our healing gifts The moon represents an archetypal remedy with deep feminine attributes such as slowness, sensuality, wisdom, and the capacity to be with darkness and emotions. Connecting with Luna’s rhythms and cycles can help us attune to our own Feminine body’s natural cycles - something which many Secret Witches are disconnected from in our mundane, logical, head-driven society Moon ritual is a powerful way to embody our magic, and there are practical invitations in this episode to help you get started with working with the moon Resources and things that we spoke about: Download our Starter Pack - www.nicolebarton.co.uk/sign-up Join our Next Group Journey with Archetypal Luna: www.nicolebarton.co.uk/luna Social: Tiktok - @archetypalapothecary Instagram - @iamnicolebarton Instagram - @archetypalapothecary You Tube - https://www.youtube.com/@secretwitchsociety Join our Secret Witch Society: www.facebook.com/groups/secretwitch Website: www.nicolebarton.co.uk Thank you for listening, we’d love to know what comes alive for you in this week’s episode, so please let us know.

How to embrace the mystery and trust our natural rhythms - even when we are tempted to mistrust 1:04:55

1:04:55

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Simone Stevens. Sim is an intuitive energy healer, Sekhem practitioner, Psychic medium and practising witch, who is dedicated to offering healing ceremonial sessions, treatments, ritual circles and workshops to guide the mystically and spiritually curious to find their innate magic and alignment. Sim focuses her work around connection to energy and spirit, be that of Spirit realms, plants, ancient energy healing practices, divination tools, sound or crystals. Sim believes that supporting clients to work more closely with their intuition is the portal to profound, positive, and aligned change in their lives. In this episode we explored how to embrace magic and mystery and how to learn to trust our intuition - even when we are conditioned to mistrust it. We explored the common ‘Healers Journey’ of initiation into the mystery (often via burnout and panic attacks), and how us feeling disconnected from our true selves is often the way we are called into our gifts. We explored the importance of stillness, honouring the natural rhythms and cycles of our bodies - and even navigating mistrust of others in our ‘spirituality’ - to reclaim our innate magic. We dived into some practical steps of tuning into our ‘gut feelings’, and a deeper exploration of intuition versus ego - and the importance of self-compassion along the way. What You’ll Learn from this Episode: For those who long to be healers, embracing magic and mystery is vital - though we can often have wounding and fear around trusting our intuition that wants to be healed for ourselves first The mundane world can lead us sensitive souls to manifest symptoms of burn out and panic attacks which can feel like ‘rock bottom’, even when we look like we’ve ‘got it all together’. These are actually a sign of a deeper call into our intuition and magical healing gifts - often these messy dark portals of mystery are catalysts for our deeper purpose - and a required part of the path It can be hard to open when we feel like this, and it is often in the moment where we think there’s no other choice that intuition kicks in. Staying curious helps us open more fully to trusting our intuition, begin to hear our body and open to our magic - it often requires us to ‘unlearn’ years of conditioning Practising stillness and carving our time for self-illumination are essential to help us tune unto our natural rhythms and intuition - and this can be cultivated with a practice Sim shares regarding listening to our ‘gut feeling’, to build our ‘intuitive muscle’ The more we heal self-doubt of our magic and intuition, the more others meet us in that - it can be a common fear for the Secret Witch to think that others will judge her as a ‘lunatic’, but when we truly welcome our intuition, and magic, others can too It’s important to hear our intuition, and it’s taking aligned-action that actually heals - each time we act on synchronicities or inner nudges we are building trust in our intuitive voice Resources and things that we spoke about: Join our journey with Archetypal Luna: https://www.nicolebarton.co.uk/luna Social: Tiktok - @archetypalapothecary Instagram - @iamnicolebarton Instagram - @archetypalapothecary You Tube - https://www.youtube.com/@secretwitchsociety Join our Secret Witch Society: www.facebook.com/groups/secretwitch Simone’s Email - sim@sensesbysim.co.uk Simone’s Instagram - @sensesbysim Simone’s Website - https://www.sensesbysim.co.uk Simone’s The Intuitive Shadow Course this October 2024 - https://www.sensesbysim.co.uk/intuitioncourse-1 Thank you for listening, we’d love to know what comes alive for you in this week’s episode, so please let us know.
