Drink from the Well

In this episode Leah speaks with author and medium Carole Obley on how to heal grief and guilt and find security about life's transitions.

Many of us believe there is an afterlife. However we may have a hard time trusting life's natural processes such as death.

Carole and Leah speak about how the eternal bond of love is real, how spirit beings are living entities who are still present in our lives, and how we can form a relationship with them through communication to further deepen that relationship.

There is no end to our loving relationships, energy is infinite. We can learn how to move through life's grief and often the guilt that comes with these transitions, to remember that there is no ending and that spirit is alive and well.

Survival Mode - we hear about it but aren't sure if we're in it. 

Survival mode is a trauma response. When we are burdened with the stress of life or past experiences or trauma, or if we have generational trauma in our families, we may have learned how to survive, but not much else.

Many people are living in survival mode. The anxious state that is overwhelmed and cannot be present or available for new experiences, feelings, spontaneity or true relaxation.

Leah covers the symptoms of survival mode, as well as how to get out of survival mode and heal. 

Some of the highlights are:
Desire to feel numb
Stuck in fight, flight or freeze
Being overly reactive
Having anxiety
Inability to focus

What is the opposite of survival mode? The ability to relax, be available, have resources on hand to pivot without panic, to authentically enjoy one's surroundings and simply being alive.

Leah shares some of her favorite methods to move beyond survival into a place of present moment living through somatic therapy, sound healing, yoga, movement for healing, meditation and more. 

Listen in and be inspired. Oh, and Leah shares another story about the house - but of course!

The final episode of season 4 brings you to contemplate how you fill your life and stay attached to your to-do lists/obligations as a survival mechanism rather than using the space in-between to access the flow state.

To be in the flow, we open to our intuition, trust, creativity, feminine energy, abundance and the unknown. It can be a scary energy to embody if we've spent most of our time in survival, or trying to find our identity based on what we do or achieve.

Let yourself contemplate and perhaps join the challenge to be in the moments in between the busyness so you can activate the energy within that wants to emerge. This practice isn't just for artists, it's for all co-creators who desire to have more peace, curiosity and joy in their lives. To feel what it is to be present and available to what is possible when we aren't jamming our time with to-dos and expectations.

This story will never be over, but for now Leah is wrapping up the story of her time at the haunted house on Weeden St with some powerful messages from spirit. 

One's healing journey is never over, as healing is not linear. Much of life isn't linear, however we perceive it to be in order to maintain some sense of control. 

What is it to feel connected and safe in spirit, living in a higher, more expanded vibration and consciousness, feeling trusting in the moment and free within oneself? It's a feeling most are desirous of, yet terrified of. 

The will to live includes the tenacity to maintain integrity and wholeness in the present moment. The more capacity we have for the moment, the more peaceful and present we can be. 

Join Leah on the tail of this haunted house story, as she weaves in some of the most important teachings about building this capacity for self.

In this episode, we continue the story of  the  haunted house on Weeden. Leah continues to be lured into the dreamtime by "Edward" or the dark energy of the house.

Facing some of life's difficult challenges, alongside magical occurrences, Leah begins to use the suggestions from her late grandmother's card of instructions to empower her.

This episode marks the beginning of a new kind of energy at the house.

Based on true-life stories, documented by Leah between 2020 and 2023.

In this episode Leah introduces you to two neighbors,  her only neighbors, at the house. These neighbors have become characters in the screenplay as their timeline was so instrumental to the shift at the house.

Zencat is her name. I'm not sure where the name came from, but she wore it proudly. John is her husband. They live in the house right next door to Leah, the house that looked abandoned but wasn't, next to the abandoned cottage on the hill.

Leah discusses their mental health issues and addictions, the behavior and interactions that went on during her time there, like Zencat being naked scooting on her bottom down the asphalt road, unable to get up. This was a repeated occurance.

The multiple calls to the ambulance. The screaming at the house, the chit chat, the accidents with the railings.. It was two years of Zencat and John, although they had lived at their house for over 20 years.

We're at the part of the story that becomes hard to believe, the synchronicities, the spirit activity, the confrontations - but for those who delve into the paranormal or not, Leah has it on recording! Plus, she has energy clearers "ghost hunters" or "spirit removers" over to the house to investigate and help cleanse the property.

TRIGGER WARNING: The live recording is from this Thanksgiving (last week) evening during the middle of the night. John recorded Leah in a confrontation in the dreamtime with "Edward" - and then helped her come to full consciousness. As Barbara remarked in our last episode, he will continue to try to enter, and he sure did. The audio is her pleading and battling Edward to stay out of her space and this house. 

Leah shares about vulnerability and how we have to be cautious with our physical, mental and emotional health when we are feeling tired, weak, ill - and also share some of the information given to her from the ghost hunters, Marcia and Marty from Mt. Laurel, New Jersey.

Also in this episode, you'll meet the young spirits trying to get Leah's attention, and what goes on up in the attic, as well as more information about the burial pit. 

It's a loaded 28 minutes, closing out with a sweet scripture from Psalms that Leah reads one night to the young girls' spirits who are afraid.  

Remember, Leah was taking notes of all her experiences while there after realizing something different was going on at this house, but she was not planning to share, podcast, write a script or otherwise during this time-period. The notes are real-time as best as can be remembered.

Today on the pod Leah talks with Barbara, a psychic medium of 40 years, about the happenings at the house, as well as how it works to speak with spirit on the other side.

Full transparency; Barbara did not listen to any of Leah's story about the haunted house thus far. She and Leah did not speak prior to this interview, and have no prior knowledge of one another. This is their first time communicating in any way.

Barbara shares information from her guides about the meaning of Leah's story, the dark energy of the house, where he is now, what is coming up for Leah in her work regarding this story, and reveals where the spirit is now.

Although Leah isn't sharing more of the story today on purpose, more of the story is revealed, so make sure you listen to the previous episodes first!
