Vivien in Conversation with Karen DeWig – Dealing with a Scary Diagnosis

 

Hello and welcome to the Schapera show where Viv and Neil explore this big adventure called life. Our guest today is a colleague of mine that I haven’t actually met in person yet and I’m extremely pleased to meet her now in this particular way. I mean I have spoken to her on the phone. We always prepare for these interviews to make them wonderful for all of us and I want to say welcome to Karen DeWig  – Hi Karen, welcome to the show.

 
Hi Vivien, thank you so much for having me. It’s a pleasure being here.

You’re one of the people that I have been observing in our professional society with giving such amazing leadership and everything and so I want to say that but before we begin I just also want to remind everyone that this is part two in a two-part presentation. So last time we spoke to Brooke Leib and she talked about her experience of working with you Karen and I believe you’re going to reference that in what we talk about today, is that right?

Oh yeah, yeah I’m going to be bringing up my work with Brooke. Definitely.

Yeah, good. So I think let’s just begin in a very ordinary grounded way with you telling us about yourself. For example I know you’re an Alexander teacher but in my experience almost all Alexander teachers have other careers, other interests. So let’s hear about you Karen.

Yeah so I got into Alexander technique as a professional flutist. I thought it would help my flute playing which it did but it also changed my personality in a really cool way. Like I found myself able to not respond so habitually or quickly or emotionally as I was used to and I really liked that about myself and so that got me really interested in Alexander enough so that I decided to become a teacher and so I taught for maybe years before opening a teacher training course which I’ve been doing for the past years or so. So I’m training Alexander teachers as well.

Spirit Report: The Importance Of Creativity

Hi there!
You are listening to the Schapera Show, and I am Neil, bringing you reports of my Shamanic Journeys to the Spirit Realm and the guidance that the benevolent Spirits give us.

The purpose of this journey is to travel to the Spirit realm of the Upper world and ask the compassionate Spirits, Spirits of benevolence and kindness, the Spirits that in the Upper world are referred to as Spirit teachers, to ask them to give me guidance on the topic of the importance of creativity for humans, the importance of creativity in the lives of humans.

And this is really fascinating because immediately what I’m shown as my way of traveling up to the Upper world, to climb up to the Upper world, is I guess you could call it a totem pole, which is carved and painted in all kinds of motifs. I see animal faces, similar to what I saw having been created by indigenous tribal people in Costa Rica, the masks that they created.

And so I’m being told straight away that for want of a better word, we’ll call it creativity has been around for a long, long time. And they say that creativity at its peak, so to speak, is a way of connecting with the Spirit realm, with the divine, with the transcendent, that yes there is, to put it poorly, to not give it its due, you could call it, there is the decoration aspect of creativity, which segues into beauty, which segues into this experience of transcendence.

And creativity is naturally to be understood as the experience of the creator, and the experience of the recipient, the person who sees the creation, hears the creation, reads the creation, whatever form the creation takes. And the Spirits are saying that of course the primary creativity is the creativity of the creation of the universe.

And this is all before I’ve even properly started ascending this, what I’m calling a totem pole, it’s a way for me to get up. And because there are carvings sticking out along the side, it’s very, very easy to climb. There are all kinds of footholds and hand holes and openings. It’s actually ideally created for climbing.

Vivien in Conversation with Brooke Lieb – Discover Safety

 Here below is the transcript of Vivien conversation with Brooke

Vivien: Hello and welcome to The Schapera Show where Viv and Neil explore this big adventure called life.

Our guest today is someone unique in my life and her name is Brooke Lieb and we have agreed to share our remarkable relationship with you here on the show because Brooke is a fellow Alexander teacher as well as an amazing, amazing support person who has helped me put crystal surgery classes through a whole series of courses and structure that I just couldn’t have managed on my own without her.

 She was the head of the very impressive ACAT, The American Center for the Alexander Technique in New York and she just has an absolutely sparkling resume and incredible experience as well as being someone whose hands I trust which is a big deal for me.

So I want to say welcome to Brooke. Brooke, thank you for coming on the show.

Brooke: Oh, my pleasure. And thank you for providing a bridge during COVID for us become amazing distance energy healers. That really was something special wasn’t it?

Vivien: It just came upon us and then we did it. And I remember that moment when I think Brooke is helping.

Brooke, why don’t we take off with you telling us just a little bit about yourself, your training, your background, head of ACAT and then we can go straight into the very, very interesting case study which we are going to follow up next month as well. So just a brief overview of your background.
