And so one of the exit strategies from either of those two states is to come into the present moment.” (26:27-26:39 | Paige)“All of our physical power in the world comes from our connection to the Earth.” (27:19-27:22 | Ben) LinksConnect with Ben and Paige:Website: https://lucidshiftcoaching.com/Lucid Shift Coaching IG: https://www.instagram.com/lucid_shift_coaching/Project Candlelight: https://airtable.com/shr5p0P2793RtRk2kPodcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm Hosted on Acast.
