Welcome to the Wild Becoming Podcast,

The ultimate gateway to ignite your spiritual journey and unlock a life of harmony,

Purpose,

And conscious living.

My name's Amanda Machado.

I'm your guide in this quest for self-discovery.

As an epidemiologist and devoted teacher of consciousness,

I take my inspiration from spirit,

Science,

And nature and make conscious living practical for your everyday life.

In this sanctuary of knowledge,

We will blend the robust foundation of scientific truth with wisdom woven by diverse communities,

Disciplines,

And niches across the globe.

We're not just connecting the dots here.

We're simplifying the intricate patterns of our world in order to fuel your transformation like never before.

Before we embark,

A quick note.

While I'm deeply passionate about wellbeing,

I'm not a medical expert.

If you're facing psychological or medical challenges,

It's essential to seek the guidance of a qualified professional.

Your health and happiness matter.

So to all you seekers,

Dreamers,

And curious souls yearning for growth,

This podcast is your catalyst.

All starts and ends with the spirit.

Your spirit holds the key.

And today,

We unlock its infinite potential together.

Today,

We are embarking on a journey of exploring the fascinating world of energetics and its profound impact on our daily lives.

In today's episode,

We'll dive deep into the core concepts of energy,

Balance,

And the dance between masculine and feminine energies.

Get ready to unlock the secrets of harnessing and conducting energy,

Just as nature does with her majestic forces.

And with that,

Let's dive right in.

So let's talk about understanding energetics.

Energetics is the foundation of our exploration today.

Picture our bodies as vessels.

Sometimes we forget this,

But our bodies actually are our conduits for energy that flow through us and the world around us.

And when you think about it,

Our bodies are actually perfectly designed and made for this.

Our bodies are primarily water,

Consisting of about 60% water.

And then we also know that the brain has about 85% water and the heart around 73.

This scientific fact not only emphasizes our connection to the Earth's elements,

But also highlights our energetic nature and our ability to conduct energy.

We know how energy moves through water,

Right?

So it's actually a pretty beautiful concept that we are composed of this beautiful life-giving element that we can tap into at any time.

And also that we have this deep connection between our physical body and our energetic selves.

It's fundamental to our wellbeing when we think about it.

And really diving in and understanding this deep connection between our physical body and our energetic selves is so important when we think about harnessing our true power as human beings.

The other really cool thing that I'll share with you is that this interconnection that we have is also representative of the interconnection that we have with nature and how she supports our journey and our energetic body or vessel.

So today let's explore further the profound impact of nature on our energetic wellbeing just for a little bit.

So we know that nature is basically a master healer.

Nature's energy is woven into the very fabric of our existence.

And sometimes we actually forget this fact because she's all around us when we think about it.

We know how important it is to spend time outdoors surrounded by the vibrant energy of the trees,

The soothing flow of water,

Or the gentle touch of the wind.

These very experiences act as energetic cleansers that help to revitalize both our spirit,

Our mind,

And our soul,

And really promote balance in our lives.

Something so cool about nature and its connection to our body is that we have this energetic charge within us,

But we also see how this is mirrored outside of us in the skies.

So we know,

For example,

The skies or the heavens primarily carry a positive charge,

While the surface of the earth is actually primarily carrying a negative charge.

And this very idea or concept aligns with how we think about the body's position when we're meditating.

So sometimes we don't meditate sitting up,

But when you think about it,

This aligns with the powerful aspects of meditation and our understanding of the chakra system,

Where energy comes through the crown of our heads as we tap into source energy,

And we're connected or grounded through the root of the base of the spine where it meets the earth.

So it's pretty cool how our bodies kind of mirror this energetic charge that is also shared in nature.

So let's connect the dots a little bit better here between the energetic charge of nature and our own energy.

Just as earth transforms compost into nourishing soil,

Nature can actually recycle our energy.

So when we think about why we feel so grounded when we're outside grounding our feet in the grass or meditating and thinking about the base of the spine and our body being connected to the earth,

This is because nature helps to attract that negative energy and transform it or help us alchemize that into a different energetic form or vibration that we actually want to use proactively in our life.

Nature acts as an energetic entity just as we do,

Willingly pulling away our negative energy just as a nurturing mother would.

This interplay between opposites and like energy mirrors the dynamics of nature itself and the nature of us.

And it's really where that principle or the law of attraction really starts to come into action where we see that like attracts like,

Where mother nature is attracting our negative ions to help us manage that negativity within the body and we're receiving positive energy from the heavens or from the skies.

This notion also plays out when we think about atmospheric electrical properties.

So this is getting a little scientific here and a little,

You know,

Into the science,

But it's really cool when we think about it because this is still an active area of research and diving into our understanding of this phenomenon can help us understand ourselves too.

And though this is a really a whole podcast on our own and we're simply scratching the surface,

We can use these scientific understandings or concepts to really get practical about how we use our own energy in our body and exploring the energetic connection between ourselves and the world around us.

This allows us to uncover the intricate symphony of nature's energies and how they impact our wellbeing.

Much like we're,

You know,

Supported by a mother and father,

The universe and nature provides,

They provide for us energetically,

Physically,

As we navigate our journey here on earth.

We've talked a little bit about how nature provides for us energetically as we navigate our journey here on earth through that external supportive mechanism.

Let's talk a little bit about how we have our own internal energies at play.

And within the body,

There's this dance of polarity happening all the time without us really having to consciously think about between our masculine and feminine energies,

Irrespective of sex or gender.

Through living more consciously with truly understanding these concepts,

They can really have a profound impact on our everyday lives because we begin to understand our own energetic journey and we can go even deeper into the harmonious dance of masculine and feminine energies within us and how those polarities actually support us.

So,

As I mentioned,

These energies are not limited to gender,

They're essential aspects that shape our entire being,

Both within and outside.

Let's take a more in-depth look at masculine and feminine energies.

The feminine,

You can think of as being more of that intuitive side of us,

Those nurturing forces.

It's like that egg in the darkness attracting the spark of life.

So,

Conception actually mirrors the dance between masculine and feminine energies.

But we know the feminine is actually not as passive of a role as we once believed with early science,

But an active role,

An active force that actually connects us to everything around us,

To nature,

To our emotions,

To our creativity,

And then we know how we have that masculine aspect to us,

Which is really our conduit.

It conducts the energy that we've harnessed into conscious or unconscious actions.

It's our connection to the heavens,

To our source consciousness,

It's the yang,

And then that light that complements the feminine yin energy.

So,

Really understanding these dynamics allows us to embrace the beauty of our complexity and strive for balance and also get really practical about how we are actually stepping into our power because to truly step into our power,

We have to consider both.

So,

We've been talking about how our bodies are conduits for energy and we're deeply connected to the earth elements as well.

And we're also talking about understanding this connection and how that actually empowers us to harness our true potential as human beings and tap into that inherent energy source that we have within because we tend to outsource our power.

And that power,

Just as Newton's Law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed,

Actually is within us.

And so,

It's asking for us to embody our true power and our true energy source instead of outsourcing,

Right?

And where we can feel supported,

And we were talking about this when we started this conversation,

Was really through the healing power of nature,

Right?

So,

Nature acts as that master cleanser,

That master healer,

Helping us to regulate our nervous system,

Helping us to cleanse our energy and promoting balance.

That's why spending time outdoors within the trees,

Within close to nature helps to revitalize our spirit and reminds us of the interplay that we have going on within ourselves that also is present in our natural world.

And so,

We are both supported on our journey through our own internal processes that are natural through our dance of polarity of masculine and feminine energy,

But we're also deeply supported by nature.

And cultivating that and coming home to that idea can really help us to live a more conscious life.

And so,

Let's apply some scientific principles that we know relate to energetics.

This will allow us to bridge the science behind energetics and the profound principles at play in a more practical sense.

So,

We've all probably heard sayings like opposites attract and like attracts like,

But these are more than just sayings,

They're scientific realities.

So,

Not only in the world of energy,

But also in the broader context of human interactions and the universe itself,

Do we actually see these play out,

Right?

When we think of relationships.

Sure,

Like attracts like in the sense that there are gonna be certain things that resonate with you when you're in relationship with someone.

But also,

Opposites attract in the sense that when you're in a conscious relationship,

You can honor the differences in someone and what they actually teach you about yourself.

So,

This concept of polarity is actually everywhere,

From atoms to galaxies.

It's intricate dance shapes our existence and the world around us.

So,

Why am I saying all this?

Who cares?

Why does it all matter?

So,

It matters because exploring these principles adds this fascinating layer to really understanding how we can create energetic harmony within ourselves.

Consider how interconnected our world is.

Consider the interconnectedness of the human body as a vessel of energy that resonates with the rhythms of the universe.

As we know,

Science reveals that the molecular relationship between opposites,

Like ions or energies,

Also plays out within us,

Also plays out within our environment surrounding us.

This scientific understanding,

It just helps us to appreciate that energetic current flowing through us and connecting us to the cosmic order that exists.

We are energy.

And when we remember our power as an energetic source,

We can actually better tap in to this day-to-day and we become that powerful source that truly does have control over our own destiny and can conduct the energy that we're harnessing within us using our willpower for our greater good,

But also the greater good of others as well.

And so,

We've talked about the energetic nature of our being.

We've talked about nature's healing power.

We've talked about this harmony in polarity,

This dance between the masculine and feminine energies,

Which also shapes our being because there's energy sort of impacting us within,

But also outside.

So,

Supportive environments that are external to us,

Like nature,

And then within us,

Us having this particular dance between the masculine and the feminine,

And really embracing most of these or both of these energies and allowing us to find balance and tap into both the simplicity and the complexity that being human is,

To look at how this is actually gonna enhance our wellbeing and allow us to live a more conscious life.

So,

Let's make this more practical.

We've summarized kind of these key foundations of energetics in our immediate environment,

But also internal to us.

Now,

What can we do every day or day-to-day that serves us in terms of living a more conscious life?

So,

It's really important to think about how you can discover your unique energetic essence.

Starting the day with simple grounding practices.

This could be standing barefoot on the earth,

Closing your eyes,

Taking a few deep breaths if that feels safe for you.

Really visualizing being rooted to the earth as if your feet are extended into the ground and part of the earth.

You can also imagine drawing nourishing energy from the earth and infusing yourself with its vitality or allowing yourself to visualize negative energy leaving your vessel,

Though we know energy doesn't necessarily leave your vessel,

It just gets transformed.

This practice will help to connect you to your energetic essence and really will allow you to set that harmonious tone for your day,

To start your day.

You could also do it throughout your day,

Just to be in the body,

Connecting to nature,

But being in the body and connecting to yourself,

Asking yourself,

What do I feel like?

What does my energetic essence feel like?

So that's one tip,

Really focusing on discovering your energetic essence is really going to allow you to both harness and then cultivate your energy in a way that's gonna help you live a more conscious life.

The other tip I have for you today is really,

Again,

Connecting back and harnessing nature's healing energy so dedicating some time to really be in nature,

Whether it's a walk in the woods,

A stroll by the ocean,

Or even sitting in a park,

Just immersing yourself in the natural world.

So I can tell you that sometimes it can be hard to find a place to really immerse yourself in nature,

But even if it's a small patch of green grass,

It can really serve you in so many ways in all of its simplicity and beauty.

So practice mindfulness when you are out in nature and really allow yourself to focus on your sensations,

The sounds around you,

The sights around you,

Even people watching in nature can be such a beautiful practice.

And allowing nature's energy to really cleanse and rejuvenate your spirit and promote that inner balance and harmony.

So it's kind of like allowing nature to bring that feng shui into your life.

So we have external supportive environments as we've talked about that will really help us to promote that inner peace,

But also know that you can promote that from the inside out as well.

Moving into the inside,

We can think about how we really have mastery within the scope of our masculine and feminine energies.

So firstly,

I think it's just acknowledging that we have both because for a long time,

I feel like many of us were taught that for females,

You're probably more feminine energy and males are more masculine energy,

But that's not really necessarily how it works as we've talked about.

And so what can really be helpful for creating a more conscious life is creating a ritual that balances your inner energy.

So setting aside a few minutes for reflection in your day,

Whether it's like two minutes to like half an hour,

I think it's not necessarily the amount of time that you spend,

But just the fact that you're setting that intention to be with your inner energies that matters.

You can also use that time to set some intentions for what you want your life to look like,

How you actually wanna cultivate your masculine and feminine energies.

And the important factor here is really acknowledging that dynamic interplay of your masculine and feminine energies and embracing your intuition and your creativity as expressions of your feminine energy.

And also embracing your masculine energy and allowing yourself to acknowledge the beauty and being able to channel your focused attention and determination through your expression of your masculine energy.

By consciously integrating these energies,

It's gonna be like watching two beautiful souls dance.

Like you ever think of those people who are like in those amazing TV shows who are dancing on stage and they just look like they're such in a flow in their movements that it's like mesmerizing.

This is kind of what you want when you wanna think about how you harmonize both your masculine and feminine energies.

So I hope this helps you in enhancing your personal growth journey.
