In this episode of Divine Downloads I give you my intuitive download around this February 9th 2020 Leo Full Moon! The primary theme being a culmination to courage and how we can boldly claim our hearts desire so that we can be truly LIT UP!

 

 

 

 

In this episode of Divine Downloads, I share about my recent engagement, how I met my partner and all the spiritual lessons I learned right before we met and as we were dating for those of you on your own journey to deep romantic love. I provide some of the tools and tips that were effective for me in rising up to meet the man of my dreams and receiving great love when it came!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In this episode of “Divine Downloads”, I dive into why our thoughts are creating our lives and how we can look to our way of thinking to change our lives both on a mental and a physical level. I discuss how to see what areas of your life need a thought shift so you can see the life upgrade. I give you the top three tools for shifting your thoughts!

 

 


Hey there beauty,

You’re invited to the exclusive Miracle Mastermind 2020, a small group of individuals gathered together for the purpose of shifting their mind from a place of fear to place of love, otherwise known as moving from scarcity to abundance or lack to infinite possibilities. Over the course of the year, we will move through the entire 365 day workbook of A Course in Miracles together, you will receive daily audios from moi and pictures of the lessons and we will have weekly meetings to discuss how to utilize the lessons in the Course for our day to day situations, struggles, and goals. By the time we complete, next February, you will have experienced miracles in every area of your life and have experienced a massive mindset shift! As an added bonus, if you are a coach, yoga or meditation teacher, you will also be (as defined by the course) an official A Course in Miracles Teacher.

This is Miracle Mastermind is for you if:

  • you have been curious about A Course in Miracles and either never picked up the book or tried to start the lessons and got distracted or bogged down by the language
  • you know you thrive with accountability, community and support in order to remain consistent
  • you are ready to dive deeper than ever spiritually and truly show up for this life changing work
  • you have read A Return to Love by Marianne Williamson, Spirit Junkie, May Cause Miracles or Miracles Now by Gabby Bernstein  and our ready to experience the master spiritual text that inspired them all

  • you resonate with my teachings and want to have me as your mentor for the journey of 2020
  • you are ready to experience more joy, abundance and greatness in your life in 2020
  • you are a life coach, yoga teacher, meditation teacher or self-help blogger/influencer and want to ground your teachings in deep spiritual practice and study of a classic metaphysical text and training system of shifting your thoughts from fear to love
  • you are sick of living in fear, anxiety, stress, self-doubt and moments of sadness and are ready to develop strong spiritual tools to create miraculous mindset shifts
  • you want to connect deeper to your higher power and be your most divine, empowered, inspired self in 2020

 

How will it work?

 The Miracle Mastermind is a full year-long commitment from both of us.

My commitment to you is:

  • 365 days of audios and pictures of the lessons in our private WhatsApp group for you to listen to and meditate with each day.
  • Weekly Zoom calls where we will unpack the text itself from A Course in Miracles, it’s primary principles and the workbook for teachers.

Got questions? I’ve got answers! Here’s a video I recorded just for you based on the most commonly asked questions that come my way. Everything from money, to time commitment to “what if I’m a total newbie?” — watch this video if you need a little greater clarification from me. Got something I didn’t cover?

Email assistant@cassandrabodzak.com and we will demystify it for you!

And incase any of you were wondering how “A Course in Miracles” came into my life and how this work has transformed it, I recorded this little ditty for you. I hope it gets you epically excited for what’s possible for you this year in the Miracle Mastermind! xo, Cass

Feeling strongly called but in a serious financial constriction right now?

One of the core principals of being a teacher of ACIM is always trying to offer a scholarship to those in need. While the energetic commitment of this Miracle Mastermind, is extensive on my part (I will pretty much be your spiritual running buddy all year long!!) — I am offering partial scholarships so that those of you who feel the call can say yes. The energetic exchange is an important part of this commitment because it’s you investing in yourself so the scholarship (should you be selected) will significantly reduce the price but not make it completely free. If this sounds perfect for YOU, click here and submit your application ASAP.  My hope is that this enables you join the mastermind at an investment that still feels like a commitment for you but also makes it very possible for you to say yes to this important, life-changing work.

Tis the season where everyone starts making resolutions to lose weight! Now you already know my stance on that — NOT HELPFUL! If you’ve been thinking about weight loss as a “goal” for 2020, I’d like to offer you a more loving and helpful option.

How about we make 2020 the year of nourishing your body and eating with intention!

Want to know an easy way to make sure that you actually stick with that? Choose one healthy habit that you are going to incorporate on a regular basis.

Here’s one that’s been a lifesaver for me — my go-to greens! There are a few around and it can be mind boggling picking the right one. You can shop online, in a healthfood store, even grocery stores stock a range! So how do you pick one? Do you buy the most expensive thinking it’s the best? How do I know which ingredients do what on the label on the back? And which do I really need?

Knowing what I know already about nutrition and then doing some more research on top of that I’ve found Teami Blends’ Greens Superfood Powder to have all the nutrients I need without the sugar, stevia or agave some brands add to the mix! The experts at Teami only use the highest quality, non-gmo ingredients, no fillers or additives (that you have to look out for in a lot of other powders on the shelf!) and everything is vegan and cruelty free which is why I feel so confident recommending them to you. This greens powder also contains 16 superfood ingredients like wheatgrass, spirulina, chlorophyll, kelp, broccoli, parsley, dandelion root and matcha — just to name a few of my stand out favorites!

I make sure to incorporate a green smoothie regularly, especially when I’m traveling. It’s when I’m not preparing my own food every day that the veggie count can drop and this blend is going to boost energy and give me my daily veggie count. Having a smoothie each morning with a scoop of teami greens give me peace of mind for the rest of the day knowing that I’ve already given my body a heap of the nutrient dense greens it needs to feel, look and run it’s best!

Me, in my hotel, making a smoothie on my recent Denver trip.

My go to smoothies recipe is:
1 cup non dairy milk (my favorite is coconut)
1 serving scoop of Teami blends greens (linked)
1/2 a banana
1/4 cup frozen blueberries
1 heaping tbsp of almond butter
A handful of spinach
1 tsp of flax seed meal

You can swap out the blueberries for your favorite frozen fruit of choice and the almond butter for your favorite nut or seed
butter as well.

I have this smoothie over and over again and somehow still love it! It’s easy to make, flexible enough where you can utilize what you have around the house and the Teami blends greens make sure it jam packed with good for you nutrition!

On the go or stranded without some key ingredients?

You can always mix the Teami greens with just ice and non dairy milk to still get in your nutrients!

As you can see in the pictures, I even love traveling with a small portable blender because when I start my day with my go to greens smoothie, I have the energy and vitality for whatever comes my way. Adding just this one habit into my diet has made me feel significantly better not only physically and mentally — but more self-love because it’s a symbol of my priority to take great care of my body.

So this New Year, let’s toss the body judging resolutions and get to the core of things. Real, practical, nourishing rituals are the way to love your body up and help it look and feel it’s best. Click here and use CASSGREENS at checkout for 15% off.

As Ram Dass famously said, “If you think you’re enlightened, go spend a week with your family.” 

Well the holidays are upon on us and that is often the time of the year even the most spiritually disciplined of us struggle keeping our peace and sanity. There’s nothing like traveling, visiting family, present shopping in chaotic stores, a full calendar of cocktail parties and end of year dead lines at work to drive even the most zen of us a little cray-cray.

But, as with everything, this year presents us with an opportunity to do the holidays in a new light. We’ve done a lot of work through out the year and now we are ready to handle whatever the holidays throw at us — we just need a game plan! (And to keep up with our daily rituals and meditation practice!)

If you are worried about navigating the holidays, have no fear, I’ve got you covered. Over on the podcast and on my YouTube channel, I have recorded two special episodes just for you all about handling the stress and the obstacles that come up at this most joyous time of year.

Part One: Navigating Food and Family Stress This Holiday Season

  • This episode is all about how to navigate holiday parties and family gatherings while still honoring your body’s wisdom and staying true to the foods and practices that feel best for you! We also dive into my “sober game plan” so that you go in prepared and some intention setting as well as conversational practices for relatives that just don’t know how to ask appropriate questions!
  • Listen here on the podcast.
  • Watch the YouTube episode below.

Part Two: Navigating Financial Stress this Holiday Season

  • This episode is all about how to navigate all of the money stuff that comes up for us around the holidays! The joy of gift-giving, the worries of our bank account and the guilt or emotional spending of money we may not even have! The holiday season can be riddled with complicated financial feelings, let me help you go in with a game plan so you don’t let it sabotage the money you’ve worked so hard all year to make.
  • Listen here on the podcast.

Hope you enjoy these resources and that they serve you this Holiday Season!

Comment below and let me know what you are putting into action!

That’s right, I decided to try to kick my favorite habit for 15 days straight AND reinforce another, healthier for me, one in it’s place.

Many of you know from following me that my coconut milk latte habit is a delicious part of my morning ritual. I walk to my favorite cafe each day and take some time to journal for ten to fifteen minutes while I sip it and start off the day. However, for the past year or so, when I tune into my body and see what’s working for it and what’s not, I’ve been hearing, “please stop the coffee”. Naturally, I have been struggling to listen to it. In a lot of ways I feel like coffee (or lattes) are one of the few ‘treats’ I truly look forward to.

My body continued to keep communicating though and I soon realized how inflamed and anxious my morning delight made me feel.

I started switching over to Vahdam Teas Organic Green Tea every once in a while to switch up my morning beverage. I loved it so much that I reached out to Vahdam and asked if they wanted to collaborate with me on my project to release coffee and replace it with tea.

They took things even on step further and sent me all of their *caffeine free* tumeric teas based around this powerful superfood. I’ve been a huge fan of tumeric as an anti-inflammatory ingredient since I started going to yoga festivals a few years ago and noticed how much better my body felt when I consumed it. What a perfect way to not only get my body back on track and heal some of the inflammation that I’ve been dealing with but also a delicious substitute to help me shift the habit.

Watch the video below to see my 15-Day Tea Challenge Diary and the insights, challenges and results of me spending over two weeks going over to the tea side.

You can also listen to the Practical Musings Podcast episode of the revelations during this challenge and the importance of your daily rituals I’ll be sharing today!

Have A Happy, Healthy Holiday Season!

Tis the season for all the decadent holiday treats! Luckily, my specialty is helping you find dishes that taste like they have all the cream, butter, and deliciousness that the rest of the family oohs and ahhs over but with the nutrients, and gluten-dairy free requirements your tummy dreams of!

This Cauliflower Rosemary Apple is one of my favorite recipes from my book, Eat with Intention and I was so happy to partner with Crispy Greens to bring an even tastier version of it for this holiday season! Watch me make it live on the video below and scroll down for step by step ingredients on how to make it at home!

 


Cauliflower Apple Rosemary Soup

Yield: 4 servings

 

INGREDIENTS

Olive oil cooking spray, for greasing

1 head cauliflower, chopped

2 teaspoons garlic powder

2 teaspoons onion powder

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

2 apple packets of Crispy Fruit 

2 tablespoons (30 ml) extra-virgin olive oil

1 white onion, diced

1 clove garlic, chopped

3 cups (720 g) unsweetened almond milk, divided

3 tablespoons (45 g) Dijon mustard

4 rosemary sprigs, divided

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C, or gas mark 7). Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray. Add the cauliflower, sprinkle over the garlic and onion powders, and generously season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cauliflower starts to brown.

2. In the meantime, grease another baking sheet with cooking spray and scatter across the apples. Bake for 5 minutes, or until the apples begin to brown.

3. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 5 minutes until softened, then add the garlic and sauté for another minute.

4. Transfer the roasted cauliflower and apples (setting aside a few apple slices to garnish) to a food processor or high-speed blender, and then add the onions and garlic, 1 cup (240 ml) almond milk, and Dijon mustard. Pulse until puréed, gradually adding more almond milk to achieve your desired consistency.

5. Transfer the mixture into a large saucepan over medium heat, add 2 rosemary sprigs, and simmer for 10 minutes until warm and infused with rosemary. Remove the rosemary.

6. To serve, finely chop the remaining rosemary leaves. Ladle the soup into individual bowls, and then garnish with sliced apples and chopped rosemary.

It’s so easy to feel overwhelmed when you start living a more conscious, holistic lifestyle — we want to do all the good things — eat all the healthiest, organic food, clear out all of our home products for more natural alternatives and go no-waste or more eco-friendly. I was thrilled when Thrive Market agreed to team up with me to share some of my easy-peasy eco-friendly hacks!

If you haven’t heard of Thrive Market before, they’re an online grocery store that sells all of your favorite non-GMO, organic products at 25-50% off retail price. They sell everything from pantry staples to beauty and supplements, even cleaning or household items. I love how easy and affordable they make healthy living. Read more about Thrive Market (and get a special goodie) by reading until the end.

These five little shifts will be practically effortless to add to your life, be super cost-effective and leave you feeling like you are on your way to living a more green and sustainable life while keeping all your healthy habits in check — double whammy!

1.Grab yourself a re-usable mug and USE IT.I’m obsessed with this “U-Konserve” mug because it feels like my coffee cup, isn’t as bulky as a lot of the to-go coffee containers and to be honest, just feels super chic! It’s important to genuinely like whatever re-usable mug you select because it will help you use it on the regular. Bringing my mug to the local cafe not only saves a paper cup and plastic lid every day but also usually saves me a $1 because I only get charged for a refill. This mug paid for itself in coffee savings in under 2 weeks and it’s a big ole high five to mother earth to not be going through all those coffee containers!

2. In a similar vein, grab yourself a glass bottle for your water and fill it up with your at home filtered water instead of buying plastic bottles. Again, super simple and not only helps the planet but also helps your bank account! I reuse a glass bottle that I got from a local juice shop with a green juice in it originally, VOSS also sells their water in glass bottles so you can grab one for around $3 and reuse it infinitely. Get yourself a nice filtered water pitcher of your preference or get a gallon of water delivered to your home monthly. I subscribe to a monthly gallon of water service and it costs me about $9/month — way cheaper than always buying water out and so much more eco-friendly. Do some googling to find one near you or ask at your local co-op!

3. Bring your own produce bags to the farmers market (or grocery store). Confession, I stopped using the plastic produce bags for my fruit and veggies long before I found these amazing re-usable produce bags but once these came out into the world I was hooked. These little roll-up-able produce bags hide in your purse and help you hold your favorite greens, veggies, and fruit in their own separate bags. They’re adorable and you get to feel good because your seasonal produce addiction no longer needs to create a surplus of plastic waste!

4. Get an amazing on-the-go meal set for you to bring your lunch, snacks or dinner on busy days. This is a win-win for your wallet, your health and the planet. It’s so easy on hectic days to succumb to ordering a sandwich at your local deli or stopping at your local fast casual spot but having a fun meal carrier will inspire you to make your own food to keep in the car or at your office. I have found that this reduces my own food waste by keeping me accountable for using what’s in my fridge and saves me money because I don’t buy excess food when I have a full fridge at home. Not to mention, you will undoubtedly make healthier choices when you pack your own meal instead of waiting till your ravenous to grab something on the go AND you will be reducing waste by not having all the extra plastic that ofter comes in to-go orders. Once again — wins all around!

5. Oh hi, have you met my new friend, the re-usable “ziploc” bag. Okay these aren’t ziplock brand but that’s pretty much what I call these kind of bags and what a great invention for those of us who were raised going through a few thousand plastic sandwich bags growing up. (Hey, our moms didn’t know!) I am all about using glass containers when I can for left-overs or prepped food but somethings are just easier (and lighter if we’re tossing it in our purse) in a bag! These re-usable bags are my favorite for airplane snacks and on the go nibbles, I rotate the several I have, clean them and feel better about not going through box after box of sandwich bags anymore.

Honestly, just writing out these five easy shifts out has me thinking of sooo many more, so if you enjoyed this post and would like more simple ways to be more sustainable while keeping your healthy lifestyle, be sure to let me know in the comments below.

I want to thank Thrive Market for partnering with me to bring you these tips as well as so kindly offering you a special discount so that you can get a FREE 30 day trial as well as 25% off their already low prices by clicking here. Most of the products above I got on Thrive Market super affordably and I even got a few little things for my healthy, eco-friendly pup, Carl, while I was at it! See below for his earth loving leash, collar and bio-bags! 😉

Of course, I couldn’t help myself but grab some goodies for my little fur nugget! Carl made out with a new leash and collar that are eco-friendly and made from soy as well as some bio bags for walks!

Summer’s almost here and therefore oftentimes, so are the negative thoughts around your body and triggering dressing room-bathing-suit-try-on-sessions. Oh my. This month a few of my clients and girlfriends have been hit HARD by the body frustration bug. It’s all too easy for SOOOOO many of us to get caught up in a whirlwind of negative thoughts around our beautiful God-Pod so I felt inspired to take some action around it.

As you know, my book “Eat with Intention” is all about making peace with your body, learning how to feed it what it truly needs to be nourished and starting to listen to it’s deep divine wisdom. A lot of my one on one work with bad ass Wonder Woman type women also involves a component of making peace with their body so they can utilize it’s incredible discernment in creating a life beyond their wildest dreams. We need to heal this core relationship in our life so that we can go out there and be PRESENT and joyful co-creators of our best life!

In this week’s Aprecity workshop, I dive into five different tools and tips for navigating negative body thoughts and I’ve decided to share it for free! As someone who has personally lived through disordered eating and struggled with a negative body image, these tools were some of the “in my back pocket” game changers for me. It’s been so important to me to share this work because I know first hand how impactful healing these negative beliefs and making peace with your body can be for truly living your best life. I hope you enjoy! If you’d like to dive deeper with me, I’m offering a “Love Your Body Bootcamp” that begins June 15th and goes for 8 weeks. More details on that below the video! xx C

If this video resonated with you and you are ready to dive even deeper with me this summer, I invite you to join me for my Love Your Body Bootcamp. It’s eight weeks (from 6/15-7/30) of support, tools and coaching to help you navigate this summer like no other!

In the eight weeks together, you will:

  • Learn my best practices for healing (and handling) negative body image spirals, unhealthy eating and exercising reflexes and days where you feel uncomfortable in your skin.
  • Receive tools that will help you rekindle your love for your earth suit on a regular basis.
  • Learn how to decipher what foods and drinks are working for your body and which ones are making you feel bloated, lethargic and inflamed.
  • Start talking to your body and tapping into it’s sacred wisdom.
  • Get weekly support on our group zoom call from me as well as connect with other incredible woman also working through this on their journey.
  • Have weekly videos, light homework and lots of inspiration from me to keep it exciting and juicy!
  • Reboot your relationship with your body, feel better in your own skin and take steps to your healthiest, most radiant self inside and out!
  • Receive a signed copy of my book “Eat with Intention” with a personalized love note from moi!

The entire 8 week program with weekly group support is only $397 and because this work can be amazing to do with one of your already existing girlfriends (although you will be sure to make new ones in the group) I’m offering a bestie bonus, where you each pay only $347 (savings of $50) when you sign up with a friend.

SPOTS ARE LIMITED TO KEEP THE GROUP INTIMATE SO IF YOU ARE FEELING CALLED AND YOU ARE READY FOR THIS TO BE THE SUMMER THAT YOU FINALLY HAVE A BREAKTHROUGH AROUND LOVING YOUR BODY EMAIL ME ASAP TO RESERVE YOUR SPOT.

To apply to join the Love Your Body Bootcamp:

  • Email CBODZAK@gmail.com with subject line “Save me a spot for the LYB Bootcamp!”
  • In the body of the email, let me know why you think this program (and my coaching) is for you as well as a brief history on your negative body image and eating struggles.
  • If you have any questions and would like to hop on a 15 min consult call before joining, let me know what days and times are best for us to have a quick chat.

 

If there’s one thing that comes up in almost every week of coaching my clients it’s “how to make the most aligned decision” or how to get clarity on the next most heart-centered step for some situation in their life. I mean, it makes total sense, we are decision making machines and the quality of our choices directly correlate to the quality of our lives soo naturally once we wake up to how powerful we are we are also hyper conscious of our decisions.

Also, for those of you who haven’t worked with my one on one yet, my style is always to teach you HOW to fish and lean away from just giving you the fish. I want to teach my clients how to tap into their soul’s gps and listen to the voice of their inner guidance system so that they can use that skill for everything in their life. There are so many ways to do this and one practice I love is body wisdom but the technique I walk you through in this video may even be simpler — and I find super eye-opening and confirming for those of you who may struggle around important decisions.

I recently used these three steps on a really important business decision that I had be sitting with for weeks. I was in sooo much pain around this decision (probably because it was kind of a big deal for me!) and it wasn’t till I finally got to STEP 3 that the fog cleared and I got my big “ah Ha!”

Watch the video below and let me know what happens when you apply it to something that you need more clarity around right now! Also be sure to SUBSCRIBE and support my YouTube channel — I’m really working on building it up right now so it would mean a lot to me! 🙂

Did the video make you want to dive even deeper? Would you like to get my ear one on one to discuss a business or personal decision that you are craving greater clarity around? You can check out my one one one offerings here: click here for personal or body related and click here for business.

 

As always, thanks for watching, see you next time!
