Sounds True- Insights from the Edge with Tami Simon


https://content.blubrry.com/sounds_true/PD07117W_gina-Breedlove.mp3

Grief doula gina Breedlove, actress and recording artist, speaks about healing rituals for liberation. We all carry grief in one form or another. Whether it’s unhealed wounds from our past or a heart that’s breaking over the suffering in our world, so many of us are desperately seeking solace and hope. In their new book, Vibration of Grace, vocalist and traditional sound healer, gina Breedlove, brings us a toolbox of rituals and practices to invoke the power of sound as a vehicle of love and liberation—for ourselves, our loved ones, and everyone around us.



In this podcast, Tami Simon speaks with gina about their life and work, sharing insights on: using your voice as a healing technology; how humming soothes a dysregulated nervous system; the communal practice of grief-letting; the “pulling” ritual to release negative energy; processing our “all of a sudden” times; offering love to our bodies; gina’s unique technique for letting go of anger; how intention and inner boundaries help us navigate health challenges; why any practice must be rigorous to be effective; finding sovereignty within our body and discerning what belongs to us; soul retrieval; shifting our narratives around “burden”; and more.



Note: This episode originally aired on Sounds True One, where these special episodes of Insights at the Edge are available to watch live on video and with exclusive access to Q&As with our guests. Learn more at join.soundstrue.com.

The Magical Mystery Tour with Tonio Epstein

The Starry Kitchen; Adventures in the most famous underground restaurant in the Us with Nguyen Tran

Nguyen Tran is a Virginia born, culturally confused Vietnamese American son of Vietnam War refugees who settled in Dallas, TX. There, he worked at a dot.com before the first internet bubble burst. He graduated with a, then useless, Computer Science degree, and moved to Hollywood to sell TV re-runs.

Next, he landed at the famous, and stressfully infamous, William Morris Agency mailroom. In the depths of the 2008 fall of the economy he and his wife Thi Tran created Starry Kitchen, the illegal and underground apartment restaurant out of sheer necessity to survive, which became wildly successful, and he is the author of a cookbook memoir: Adventures in Starry Kitchen: 88 Asian-Inspired Recipes from Americas Most Famous Underground Restaurant.
