152. Letting Go & Forgiveness: Embracing Inner Peace and Healing
Here’s another episode of the Wholistic Vitality™ Podcast , Dr. Christine Manukyan dives deep into the transformative power of forgiveness as part of her holistic vitality framework. Forgiveness isn't about excusing the past, but rather liberating ourselves from it to create space for healing and inner peace. Dr. Christine outlines her six-step process from her book, Breathe. Heal. Surrender. Unlock Your Healing Journey: 8 Pillars to Reclaim Wholistic Vitality™ guiding listeners through steps such as acknowledging emotions, shifting perspectives, and practicing empathy. She also emphasizes the importance of setting boundaries and using rituals like breathwork to release resentment. Listen in for practical tools on how to let go, embrace compassion, and reclaim your personal freedom. “Forgive yourself for not knowing what you didn't know before you learned it. And again, many times, we're being so hard on ourselves, and we're just like, oh, I should have known better. I should have done better, and just show self-compassion even for yourself too. This is so, so, so important. So again, just remember that everything is forgivable and replace a negative feelings of hurt replace them with love and abundance and gratitude” Let’s talk about: Forgiveness is for inner peace – Forgiving others (and ourselves) is not about endorsing what happened but liberating our own soul, allowing us to move forward with peace. Shifting perspective is crucial – Moving from a victim mindset to one of empowerment helps release anger and resentment, enabling growth and healing from past experiences. Empathy and compassion aid healing – Practicing empathy, even toward those who have hurt us, allows for deeper healing by recognizing the shared human experience of pain. Setting boundaries protects your peace – While forgiveness is essential, it's equally important to establish clear boundaries to prevent future hurt and ensure emotional safety.

In this episode of the Wholistic Vitality™ Podcast, Dr. Christine Manukyan delves into the concept of "Alignment," the cornerstone of fulfillment and purpose in life, as part of the Vitality Framework. Drawing from her book Breathe. Heal. Surrender.

How are you aligned of where you live, how you spend your time and energy on and here's a lovely quote inside the book as well, too, that I'm quoting it says, by aligning with your values, passions and life purpose in every aspect of our existence, we create that life that is rich in meaning, fulfillment and authenticity.” Let’s delve into: Alignment is Essential for Fulfillment: Dr. Christine Manikin emphasizes that living in alignment with your values, passions, and life purpose is crucial for creating a life rich in meaning, fulfillment, and authenticity. Ten Key Areas of Alignment: These areas include relationships, career, health, finances, creativity, spirituality, personal growth, leisure, contribution, and environment.

150. Transformation Begins Within: Breaking Generational Patterns
In this eye-opening episode of the Wholistic Vitality™ Podcast, Dr. Christine Manukyan dives into part three of the Vitality Framework series, focusing on the letter T for "Transformation Begins Within." She explores how generational patterns, passed down through 12 to 17 generations, shape our beliefs and behaviors from conception. Dr. Manukyan shares her personal journey as an immigrant from Armenia, breaking deep-rooted cultural and financial patterns to create a new life in the U.S. She emphasizes the importance of healing both ourselves and past generations to build a legacy of abundance and freedom for future generations. “I want you all to start having conversations with yourself, of which patterns are you continuing to create or keep going, especially when it comes with your clients and your family members, and I want you all to not only do the inventory of the patterns, but also start taking action. And for some of you might be like, I need to speak up more, I need to create boundaries, I need to let go of certain people from my life, just because their family doesn't mean you have to have a relationship with them. So again, learning and embracing your past, but also being very intentional of how you live your life, how you choose to live your life, especially when your quote, unquote act of kindness is being taken advantage of.” Let’s discuss: Generational Patterns Shape Our Lives: We inherit 12 to 17 generations' worth of patterns, beliefs, and behaviors, which influence how we approach various aspects of life. Identifying which patterns serve us and which need to be broken is crucial for personal growth. Healing Transforms Past and Future Generations: When we actively engage in healing and self-awareness, we're not only transforming ourselves but also healing our ancestors' traumas and influencing the future generations' mindset and wellbeing. Financial Freedom and Empowerment: Breaking limiting financial beliefs is essential for creating a new mindset around money. Especially for women, overcoming generational norms about financial roles empowers both personal freedom and a healthier relationship with money. Grab your copy of Breathe. Heal. Surrender.

In this new episode of the The Wholistic Vitality™ Podcast, Dr. Christine Manukyan kicks off an empowering eight-part series based on her latest book, breathe. Heal. surrender. Unlock Your Healing Journey: Eight Pillars to Reclaim Your Wholistic Vitality™. Today’s focus is on “Voicing Your Truth,” a vital chapter that emphasizes the transformative power of speaking up for your own healing and empowerment. Drawing from her personal experiences growing up in a culture where women’s voices were often silenced, Dr. Christine explores how suppressing your truth can block your throat chakra, leading to emotional and physical ailments. She discusses how finding her voice was crucial in setting boundaries, regulating her nervous system, and ultimately reclaiming her authentic self. “It takes courage and vulnerability to confront our deepest hurts, but it is essential for our healing journey. Healing is about finding your own voice and voicing your truth.” Let’s explore: Voicing Your Truth for Healing and Empowerment: Dr. Christine highlights the importance of speaking up as the foundational pillar in her vitality framework. Suppressing one’s truth, especially for women, can lead to emotional and physical health issues, including blocked energy centers like the throat chakra.

147. Transform Your Life: Heal and Forgive with Manifestation Breathwork
09/09/2024
147. Transform Your Life: Heal and Forgive with Manifestation Breathwork
Welcome back, vibrant visionaries, to another transformative episode in The Wholistic Vitality™ Podcast. I am diving deep into the power of breathwork—a profound tool for manifestation and healing. In this episode, I share my journey from a career driven by ego to one fueled by soul-aligned purpose. In this session, you’ll explore the balance between the mind and body, learning how breathwork can release stuck emotions, create space for new possibilities, and guide you towards your true desires. My compassionate guidance will lead you through a three-part breath practice to help you unlock your inner potential, release past grievances, and step into the magic of your life's journey. Embrace this opportunity to manifest from a place of soul, not ego, and allow yourself to experience the transformative power of breath and forgiveness. “For our experience, folks, just go ahead and stick with inhales and exhales through your mouth, and utilize your body to just let your body feel okay. Don't restrict any feelings. Don't try to question. Don't try to make sense or logic. Again, you're manifesting deep down from your soul. Don't let your ego ruin your experience. Don't let your ego trying to be so hard on yourself, questioning whether or not you're doing this right or wrong. There is no right or wrong way of doing breathwork. There's just a way of doing it. And you're gonna get better and better as you do more of this.” Let ‘s dive deeper into: Breathwork as a Powerful Tool for Manifestation: Breathwork helps in manifesting desires by guiding individuals to access deeper levels of consciousness and release emotional blockages, allowing them to create from a soul-centered space rather than from the ego. Healing through Letting Go and Forgiveness: Dr. Christine emphasizes the importance of releasing internal baggage, such as grudges, anger, and frustration, to create space for new energy and positive transformations. A brief forgiveness exercise is included in the session to aid this release. Mind-Body Connection: The session highlights the significance of aligning the mind and body. When there is a disconnect between the head (ego) and the body, even achieving goals may feel unfulfilling. Breathwork can help bridge this gap and foster a deeper connection with one's true self. Safety and Accessibility: While breathwork is a powerful modality, Dr. Christine advises caution for individuals with certain health conditions, such as pregnancy or heart issues, and encourages them to participate with mindfulness and awareness of their own limitations.

There's so much new opportunities that your body's like, wow, this feels good. Wow, this actually feels amazing. And there's also things that you learn and you see and you come back that you're appreciating what you already have even more. Again, I cannot explain the importance of this sabbatical while we were traveling the world, taking time off from June till August, we were gone for three months and traveling the world, it is to really understand the importance of pausing and slowing down.” In this episode let’s dive into: Spiritual Sabbatical and Personal Transformation: I took a three-month spiritual sabbatical to reconnect with myself and dive deeper into my soul's purpose. This time of reflection allowed me to gain clarity and purpose in my life and career. Healing Journey and Holistic Modalities: I emphasized the importance of healing and nervous system regulation as foundational elements of personal transformation incorporating various wholistic™ modalities such as breath work, meditation, and detoxification into my own journey and my teachings.

The upcoming retreat in Bali will also include certification in Neuro Breath Work, a modality I developed.

145. Breaking the Intergenerational Cycle with Dr. Pauline Peck
In this new episode of the The Wholistic Vitality™ Podcast, Dr Pauline Yeghnazar Peck joins me for an insightful conversation about intergenerational and cultural trauma within immigrant communities, particularly for daughters of immigrants. We delve into the significance of culturally informed therapy, the challenges of navigating mental health within families, and the vital need to break generational patterns for better emotional well-being. Dr. Pauline emphasizes the need for culturally informed therapeutic practices and the empowerment that comes from understanding and addressing inherited traumas and the value of sharing experiences and building supportive communities, as well as the transformative potential of these efforts in fostering healthier, more connected lives. “The next step is the awareness that this is something that has been passed down through the generations that you begin to see. It's not just your parents, but potentially your parents’ parents and your parents’ parents, and you start having the curiosity about whether this pattern came before you. And whether without your awareness, it's going to happen with you involved in it as well. And you have this moment where you realize, oh, this is bigger than me, that awareness is everything.” -Dr Pauline Yeghnazar Peck In this episode, let’s explore: Understanding Intergenerational Trauma: Intergenerational trauma affects daughters of immigrants significantly, often influencing their mental health and identity. Culturally Informed Therapy: The importance of culturally informed therapy in addressing trauma and mental health within immigrant communities. Challenges in Mental Health Awareness: Navigating mental health can be particularly challenging within immigrant families due to cultural stigma and lack of awareness. Breaking Generational Patterns: Recognizing and addressing inherited traumas is crucial for breaking harmful generational patterns and fostering emotional well-being. Empowerment through Awareness: Understanding intergenerational trauma can empower individuals to seek help and create supportive environments. Role of Supportive Communities: Building supportive communities is essential for healing and providing a sense of belonging and understanding. About Dr. Pauline Yeghnazar Peck: Dr. Pauline Yeghnazar Peck is a trauma-informed psychologist in Santa Barbara, California who specializes in helping the daughters of immigrants and intercultural couples break cycles of intergenerational and cultural trauma so they can live full, free lives in deep connection with themselves and others.

143. Redefining Health Care with Dr. Christine Manukyan
In this new episode of The Wholistic Vitality™ Podcast, Michele Waterman and I dive deeper into the concept of wholistic™ health, personal transformation, and self-advocacy in healthcare. Our discussion also delves into practical tips for embracing a holistic lifestyle and the importance of informed self-care and the importance of going beyond traditional pharmaceutical solutions to explore the root causes of health issues and leveraging holistic practices like functional medicine, neuro breathwork, and lifestyle changes. We also touch on the importance of questioning and understanding the care and prescriptions provided by health professionals, encouraging patients to seek information and possibly second opinions when prescribed medication. “But are we really in a free economy and like, here's the thing, we need to be able to have these nuanced conversations where we call out the the institutions themselves and talk about the the greed, we talk about, you know, the gatekeeping, the agendas, and who this really benefits, which, you know, honestly, when it gets down to it, we're talking about benefiting stakeholders, and shareholders over the well being of children and human beings that are being prescribed cocktails of medications.”- Michele Waterman Key takeaways to explore: The importance of patients asking questions and seeking clarity about their treatments from healthcare providers. The necessity of identifying and addressing the underlying causes of health issues rather than just treating symptoms. This approach not only leads to better health outcomes but can prevent future health problems. The empowerment that comes with taking charge of one's health. Dr. Christine's story is used as an example of how personal responsibility and proactive health management can lead to remarkable health transformations. The idea that true health involves a balance of mental, physical, and emotional wellness and how lifestyle changes, such as stress management and healthy eating, are crucial components of holistic health. The need for ongoing education about one's health and wellness options is emphasized, suggesting that staying informed is key to making better health decisions. The limitations and challenges within the current medical system, particularly the focus on treating symptoms with medications without addressing deeper issues. This highlights the need for a shift towards a more patient-centered approach in healthcare. The integration of various therapeutic practices, including clinical hypnotherapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), and Reiki, illustrates a multi-faceted approach to health and wellness.

So stop wasting time waiting to be ready and start getting ready by doing”- Nathania Key takeaways to explore: The significance of embracing change and stepping out of comfort zones as a crucial step towards personal growth and transformation.

They discuss how fear should not always be seen as a barrier but rather as a sign that there is significant personal growth on the other side of that fear. Nathania illustrates how teaching others not only empowers the learner but also reinforces the teacher’s own growth and understanding, creating a cycle of positive reinforcement. About the Guest: Nathania Stambouli is the founder & CEO of Yogi Flight School, an online program that teaches aspiring yoga ninjas to slay their limiting beliefs and take their yoga practice onto their hands and upside down (think ninja tricks!) so they can finally flow into any pose with ease. She is also the founder & CEO of SoulTribe Adventures, an international retreat company that aims to take people out of their comfort zone with transformational exercises, discussions and excursions. Wherever she goes, Nathania's mission is to help people break through limiting beliefs, slay their stories of "I Can't" to step fully into YES I CAN!

141. Manifestation Mastery: 5 Steps to Unlock the Magic
In this new episode of The Wholistic Vitality™ Podcast, I explore the concept of aligning your energy with your aspirations, understanding the power of manifestation, and learning practical steps to attract what you truly desire. I share valuable insights on increasing your vibrancy, aligning your vision with your true identity, expanding your capacity to receive, and bending time to achieve your goals faster. You'll also learn about the importance of taking aligned actions and the transformative power of trusting and surrendering to the process. Whether you're watching live on YouTube, within our vibrant community on Facebook, or simply listening to the audio, this is an opportunity to be part of a supportive tribe focused on manifesting a fulfilling and vibrant life. Don't miss out—listen to the episode, engage with the community, and start your journey towards manifestation mastery today! “Once you're so aligned, and once you've done all this inner work, things will happen so much faster, the more opportunities will come because you're ready to receive more. And you've also trained your body to like, bend the time of like making that happen faster.” Key highlights to delve into: Emphasis on Energy and Vibrancy: The first step in manifestation involves increasing your energy and vibrancy to align with what you desire to create. Everything is energy and your physical state must match the energy level of your aspirations. Creating a Vision Aligned with Identity: It's important to form a vision based on your soul rather than your ego. This vision must align with your true identity, avoiding misalignments. Expanding Capacity to Receive: The third step involves expanding your capacity to receive more, which means being open to assistance, guidance, and opportunities that can help you achieve your goals. Bending Time to Achieve Goals Faster: The concept of bending time is introduced as a way to achieve goals more quickly by being perfectly aligned with your desires and identity transformation, thereby accelerating the manifestation process. Taking Aligned Action: The importance of taking intuitive and aligned actions is emphasized, which involves actions that are in harmony with your goals and inner state rather than being busy for the sake of it. Importance of Trust and Surrender: A bonus step discussed is the importance of trusting the process and surrendering control. This allows for a more profound experience of manifestation, letting the universe guide the outcomes. Community and Program Engagement: The host invites listeners to join a community and program that supports these principles through structured training, which includes live sessions and possibly a beta group for deeper engagement. Holistic Approaches and Exercises: Various holistic approaches and exercises like tapping, affirmations across chakras, and meditative practices are encouraged to support the manifestation process and align the entire being—physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

This episode is a treasure trove for entrepreneurs, visionary leaders, and anyone eager to make a meaningful impact within their community and beyond. I dive deeper into the art of authentic storytelling, the importance of creating resonant content, the role of thought leadership in today's AI-driven landscape, and strategies for leveraging community and partnerships. Plus, learn about the power of naming and cultivating a community around your brand. Listen to this episode of exploration and empowerment, perfect for vibrant visionaries committed to amplifying their influence and making a difference. Don't miss out on this opportunity to transform your approach to leadership and influence. “Do they resonate with this or they don't, and that's perfectly fine. You're not for everyone. And neither should you be for everyone. But people who are here looking for someone just like you, it is up to you to make sure you are vocal about who you're serving, how you're serving, what you call your tribe and creating this community to serve them.” Takeaways to explore: The concept of "impactful influencing," highlighting its significance in making a difference within the community and beyond. Impactful influencing involves using one's position, whether as an entrepreneur, a leader, or even a parent, to positively affect others' lives and decision-making. A key point is that leadership and influence do not require formal titles. Everyone in the community is considered a leader and an influencer because they have the power to affect those around them, emphasizing the inclusivity of leadership and influence. Authentic storytelling is presented as a crucial tool for connecting with others and exerting influence. By sharing personal stories that resonate with the audience, one can inspire change and build trust, underlining the impact personal narratives can have on individuals and communities. The importance of creating content that resonates with the target audience is discussed. Rather than aiming for viral content, the focus should be on generating meaningful interactions that genuinely help the audience, thereby converting engagement into tangible outcomes, like sales or community growth. In an era flooded with AI-generated content, authentic thought leadership stands out. By consistently sharing knowledge and experiences within one’s area of expertise, one can establish themselves as a thought leader and go-to source for information and inspiration. Developing a community around your brand, complete with a distinctive name that resonates with the target audience, is crucial for growth and engagement. This creates a sense of belonging and can significantly amplify the brand's impact and reach.

136. Beyond Perfect: Discovering the Root Cause of Perfectionism
In this new episode The Wholistic Vitality™ Podcast, I talk about the profound impact of perfectionism on personal and professional life, exploring its root causes and offering insights for overcoming this mindset. I touch on how the quest for perfection, ingrained through societal and professional expectations, leads to stress, anxiety, and potentially detrimental outcomes. I delve into five primary causes of perfectionism: fear of failure, low self-worth, need for control, external validation, and unresolved trauma or childhood experiences, each linked to deep-seated emotional and psychological issues. In this episode, I encourage you listeners to engage in self-reflection and to recognize the detrimental effects perfectionism can have on one's mental health, personal growth, and overall well-being. “Give yourself permission to explore, give yourself permission to ask questions and be curious about why am I feeling this way? Why am I trying to be perfect at all time, I'd have all this five different things, which one resonates with me the most is a fear of failure, is it low self worth is a need to for control, external validation, or some childhood trauma or any trauma that you've experienced in the past. So ask yourself, if you find yourself being perfect, trying to be perfect, which is causing the procrastination and the overwhelm, and you're putting your dreams on hold. Because quite awkward, you're trying to be perfect, right? There is a hidden feeling and trauma that you need to work on. You need to explore that. And when you start exploring these feelings and getting to the root cause of what you are experiencing, this is where everything shifts.” In this episode, let’s explore: How striving for perfection, while beneficial in certain professional contexts like pharmacy, can be detrimental in entrepreneurship and personal life, leading to stress, overwhelm, and the stifling of creativity and growth. Root Causes of Perfectionism: Fear of Failure: Perfectionists often fear making mistakes due to past experiences where failure led to criticism or punishment. Low Self-Worth: There's a belief among perfectionists that their value as a person is tied to their achievements and that any mistake reflects poorly on them. Need for Control: This arises from a desire to manage one's environment or outcomes, often rooted in feelings of powerlessness or vulnerability in the past. External Validation: The pursuit of approval from others, linking one's sense of worth to recognition and praise. Trauma or Childhood Experiences: Past traumas or high expectations set during childhood can foster perfectionism as a coping mechanism. Personal Reflection and Healing:. By acknowledging and exploring these feelings, individuals can begin the process of healing and personal growth. The power of becoming consciously aware of one's perfectionist tendencies and taking deliberate steps to address and overcome them. The host shares personal anecdotes of confronting and releasing their own fear of failure and the pursuit of external validation, illustrating the potential for transformation.
