Hello my friends, I wanted to let you all know about a new video series that I'm running on Patreon, starting next week. https://patreon.com/valerieihsan It's called EMBODY, and it's all about living a more fit and intuitive life. My personal goals for this project: lose weight, gain strength, balance, and flexibility. To feel connected to spirit, expanding my intuitive practice with tarot and oracle cards, with channeling through automatic writing, seeing signs in the universe, like synchronicity. I am going to be working on clearing my limiting beliefs around money, relationships, and self worth, and tapping into full moon, and new moon energy. I'm going to be working on self care practices for mental health and manifesting my dream life. So if you share some of these same goals or have interest in them or are actively trying to figure out what your personal goals are, then I invite you to join my Patreon community as a Paid Member (if you aren't already). And for as low as $5 a month, you can: learn along with me. be part of a community, feel connected with people that share the same dreams and goals as you do and, know that you aren't alone. So let's get Fit and Intuitive together. I’ll be getting really up close and personal, not to mention vulnerable, which is why I need this series to be behind a pay wall. (Sometimes I’ll show up in my pajamas!) Part of this project is about me challenging myself to show up Real. To not worry so much about being polished and perfect for my audience. Because, really, who wants a perfect coach? I’d rather have a coach that I can connect with, who struggles, who laughs at her mistakes and learns from them, and who tries again. Forever. I am a life-long learner. I hope you are too. Sign up for one of the paid tiers today, and join me in being Real, in growing more intuitive every day, and in finding my fitness again (at fifty!). https://patreon.com/valerieihsan Namaste. |
I've been working in this field, helping authors, for seventeen years. My favorite thing to do for writers is a story analysis, and I love coaching. I run a small writing retreat every summer in Oregon, and I podcast with author Erick Mertz on the Writer Craft Podcast.
I first bought a lot of land in a Costa Rican jungle eco-village with my then-husband sixteen years ago for Reasons--some of which no longer apply. As a harried young mother, I wanted more community, companionship, and time spent together with our little family. Even more, (even sixteen years ago), (even as a veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces), I felt little connection to my country of birth. Especially after watching Michael Moore's Sicko in 2007, eighteen years ago. Especially now, with the...
I felt compelled to come on here and tell you about this soul-felt clarity that I just experienced in my meditation this morning. I’ve been wanting to breathe some element of healing back into my service to my clients. I used to be a massage therapist and a Reiki practitioner, and I felt such peace and fulfillment and soul connection when I worked with my clients. I was always grounded before I began my work and I created a sacred space for each client, so that we could co-create their...
Dear friends and fans, I've been absent for two years. Much has happened, and not all of it ...comfortable. (I was going to say "good." Not all of it was good. But I'm trying to find the good in everything these days.) This will take a couple of minutes to read, but I hope you will. It would mean a lot to me. On the cusp of publishing my last book (March 2023), I quit my job at the bookstore to write full time and edit manuscripts for clients. The change in jobs, the hard push of publication...
