Sister Science Stories

About Sister Science Stories

The Sister Science Podcast is a place where we talk about that sacred mind.body.spirit connection and how we can practice that in our day to day lives. We discuss lifestyle choices, mindset, patterns and beliefs. Creating a place where acknowledging our connectedness to each other, nature, and the divine is normalized and lived. We honour being deeply supported, confident, and in-tune with our our own remarkable wisdom. We promote taking radical responsibility for how you move, sleep, eat, and manage energy. Learning to trust in your intuition and the sacred mind-body-spirit connection as you embark on a transformational, healing journey. We talk about how there is an ebb and flow to our ability to do this. The challenges that set us back, the fear that creeps in as we learn to be in the uncomfortable space of learning, figuring it out, trusting ourselves in a new way.

   I am Not An Addition: Anne Cox Sister Science Story

   Anne Cox and I have circled the yoga therapy world together for years. She’s also been my yoga prop dealer for just as long. This past year she came into Year of YOU, and one sentence from her reflection of the year has stayed with me: I am not an addition. In this conversation we walk through Listen, Trust, Follow, the heart of Sister Science, through Anne’s story. It starts with a fall on the ice and a body that was screaming. It ends with a simple invitation: pause, listen, and ask whether it’s a yes. We talk about: What it means to stop adapting, accommodating, and making room, and to let what you offer be enough as it is How a restorative class taught Anne to hear her body’s whispers before they turned into screams Why teaching kept her practice alive through the years of raising twins (the duck on the pond, calm on top, legs going like crazy underneath) Belonging vs. fitting in, and the shift from “where do I fit?” to “how do I reclaim my own voice?” Why we both prefer calling the Yamas and Niyamas tools rather than rules. Patience, persistence, and practice, Anne’s three P’s Meeting discomfort with compassion and kindness, so your intuition feels safe enough to speak The difference between reacting and responding, and the little pause that sits between them Why you’re never “fixed once and for all,” and why that’s good news We end on Anne's invitation is to pause and reflect on where you might be leaving yourself out of your own life, and take one small step towards trusting your inner wisdom. Give yourself permission to pause before saying yes, to listen before reacting, and to make room for what really feels true for you. Anne is a Yoga Therapist, teaching therapeutic focused classes since 2004. You can find her class schedule at acyoga.net (https://www.acyoga.net/). She teaches online in our Sister Science Community, at SLS in Cochrane and YogaMCC in Calgary.

   Feng Shui Tips for Kids Bedroom at Every Age - With Wendi Napier

   Feng Shui for Kids' Bedrooms: Setting the Stage for a Successful School Year Back-to-school season means your kids have changed. Catching up to that change can be as easy as giving a little attention to their bedrooms. In this episode of Sister Science Stories, I sit down with feng shui specialist, interior designer, and healing touch practitioner Wendi Napier to talk about how the spaces our kids sleep, play, and grow in need to evolve right alongside them. Wendi walks us through the foundations of BTB feng shui and how she applies it in real family homes - starting with the "command position" of the bed and why it matters for a child's sense of safety, when to ditch the bunk beds, and how to offer the right amount of choice to foster independence in your kids. We get into the layers of lighting a growing kid needs, from night lights to black out blinds. Task lighting, play or study zones, and how to let your kid's interest detemine what gets packed away or showcased. This conversation is a pretty fun preview of everything Wendi will be teaching in much greater depth this fall in her course, The Language of Space. Our ten-month journey into the subtle energies of pattern, shape, colour, and sound frequency, starts on September 18th.

   Mulch the Front Lawn: Malann Klassen's Sister Science Story

   This week on the Sister Science podcast, I'm sitting down with Malann Klassen; artist, mother, and recent Year of YOU graduate, for a conversation that started with talk therapy and ended up somewhere much more embodied. We talk about the difference between processing an experience and actually living inside your body. About the tension - or maybe the necessary friction - between structure and flow, achievement and ease, creating and monetizing. About what it means to trust an inner knowing that the world rarely affirms back to you. And somewhere in the middle, Malann tells me about the mulch she put on her front lawn instead of grass - and how one small, "not even that rebellious" act became a perfect stand-in for everything we're talking about: what happens when you stop performing for a system that was never built for you in the first place. This one's for anyone who's ever felt the pull between what they feel and what the world tells them they should feel. Come sit with us. If anything in this conversation landed - that ache to come home to yourself, to trust the wisdom that's already in your body, Year of YOU is where that becomes a practice, not just a feeling. Malann started exactly where you might be right now: googling a name she'd heard around town, looking for something that wasn't talk therapy, not totally sure what she was looking for. A year later, she's telling me she knows how to listen to her own body, and that it's changed everything from her inflammation to her relationships to how she shows up in her own life. It doesn't get better than this!
