What if some of the heaviness you carry isn’t entirely yours?What if your ancestors could become a source of healing, wisdom and support in your life right now?And what if reconnecting with ritual, nature, spirit and the sacred rhythms of life could actually turn you on - making you feel more alive, sensual, connected and present in your body?In this conversation, I'm joined by Lyndal Walker, an Ancestral Lineage Healing Practitioner, Ritualist & Artist, to explore the wisdom, healing and support available through reconnecting with our ancestors, nature and ritual.Lyndal shares how her own journey led her into the world of ancestral healing and ritual practice. She explains how connecting with our wise and loving ancestors can offer profound healing, guidance and support - while also bringing awareness to inherited wounds, cultural conditioning and intergenerational patterns.Tune in to hear Lyndal share:+ Why connecting with nature can feel deeply sensual and alive+ The difference between wise/well ancestors and unwell ancestral patterns+ Intergenerational trauma and ancestral healing+ Rituals, rites of passage and what modern life is missing+ The witch wound and cultural conditioning around older women+ Midlife as a powerful transition into wisdom and leadership+ Why our ancestors may care far more about connection, pleasure and meaning than perfection or productivity+ The role of intuition, somatic knowing and spirit connection+ How ritual can help us integrate change, celebrate transitions and reconnect with ourselvesWe also discuss the ceremony created by Lyndal for my 50th Birthday Celebration - PenFEST - to honour the transition into a new chapter of leadership, visibility and freedom from shame.Whether you’re spiritually curious, seeking deeper meaning, navigating midlife transitions, or simply longing to feel more connected and supported in your life, this episode offers a thought-provoking invitation into another way of relating to yourself, your lineage and the world around you.Connect with Lyndal:Website: www.conversationsintime.orgInstagram: @conversations_in_timeConnect with meWebsite: ⁠pennyvandersluys.com⁠Instagram: @pennyvandersluysEmail: ⁠penny@pennyvandersluys.com⁠If you enjoy these topics and conversations, and long to feel more alive, connected, sensual and turned on in your own life, check out my experiences, challenges, circles, coaching and community spaces for women.
