Biohack Your Beauty Podcast

Born in LA and brewed in NYC, movement, holistic health and the arts have been at the forefront of Aarona Lea's healing journey. Inspired by 20 plus years of yoga, 12 years as a yoga teacher and wellness advisor, a BFA in photography and mixed media arts, and a love of writing and globe trotting - she’s deeply inspired to share her growth and tools with others. Her classes combine various yoga and meditation disciplines where she invites you to safely explore your edge and enliven the wisdom of your senses.  She’s the author and co-creator of ‘The Moon Deck’ (an intuitive oracle deck filled with inspired offerings to stoke the powers of intention and ritual), curates and teaches ‘Yoga Soundscape’ (a live music and sound concert combined with a thoughtfully orchestrated moving meditation practice), and created the music modules for the Kula Yoga and Wanderlust teacher training programs.  Aarona teaches public yoga classes, facilitates global adventure yoga retreats, leads empowering women’s workshops, mentors new yoga teachers and offers private coaching. She's been featured in the New York Times, Self Magazine, National Geographic Traveler UK, Teach.Yoga, The Weather Channel, Wall Street Journal, Times of India, Origin Magazine, the cover of FitYoga, NBC, Elephant Journal, Yoga Journal, AlignYo, Well+Good NYC, and Co-Creator Radio. Something else about Aarona is that she creates altars wherever she goes, considers her crystals and stones her wise friends, and is reminded to *trust* when she finds a feather on her path. Her oracle deck, the moon deck, is probably one of the most beautiful and sacred decks that I know of. In our interview, Aarona talks about her experiences with an eating disorder, and how ritual was essential in helping her in her recovery. We also talk a lot about connecting to intuition, about the magical powers that yoga holds, and how self-discovery is a constant journey and a vital component of self-love. Aarona also gives us a powerful reading from her very own Moon Deck, a reading for all of you, so you will want to listen to the very end of the episode.     Discussed in the episode How Aarona’s spiritually diverse childhood shaped her mystical and spiritual outlook and fearless exploration of her self.

The loving energy that Archer Love emits is tangible; he radiates with a sense of purpose and authenticity. His passion for Ormus, also known as the “Philosopher’s Stone” and the “Elixir of Life”, originates from his own battle with PTSD stemming from his time spent in the Air Force. He studied Chemistry and Psychology in college, and worked as a counselor in a treatment center for women with eating disorders. All this time, he was searching for a way to find relief from his anxiety and depression. Then Archer experienced the transcendent healing powers of a substance called “Ormus”, and he knew he had to share it with the world. He created Now Alchemy, a line of Ormus elixirs and is on a mission to help others find relief from emotional blockages and inspire them to reach their highest potential. Ormus has been called “The Food of the Gods”. Its documented use dates back to Ancient Egypt, Lemuria, and Atlantis. King Solomon and Jesus Christ were known to use Ormus. The term Ormus was coined by David Hudson: Orbitally Rearranged Monatomic Elements. In his extensive studies, Hudson discovered that Ormus’ super conductive elements provide powerful regenerative properties. Author David Wolfe took this work further through extensive research concluding that Ormus properties include, but are not limited to, balancing left and right brain hemispheres, relaxing the nervous system, increasing spiritual and physical awareness, accelerated healing, and increased metabolic rate and cell rejuvenation. In our interview, Archer Love's calming energy and intuitive wisdom will give you a better understanding of the power of Ormus, and the connection that food and minerals have to how we think, feel, and pray. Here are some of the questions we answer on the show: What is Ormus? What is the relationship between eating disorders and purpose? What is the power of redirecting one’s obsessive nature into something beneficial? What makes Ormus such a powerful anti-aging biohack? How do minerals or mineral deficiencies affect your mood? What is “consumption perspective?” What personal experience led Archer to create his own version of Ormus What is the history of Ormus and who used it throughout history? Why is Ormus known as the Philosopher’s Stone? What is the powerful shift that occurs due to the gold components within Ormus?
