Divine Origins (with Ariela) Lotus Transformation with guest Christine Winebrenner

The lotus is considered divine and one of nature’s mystical creations, that represents the purity of the mind and soul. It defines the capacity of the soul to expand and embrace the beauty of life with a clear conscience. The lotus flower sheds its seeds and blooms at the same time. This magnificent flower emerges from the dirty and unclean bottom of a pond, but still remains untouched and unstained by the dirt and mud surrounding it in the pond. This unique quality of the flower is believed to represent pure spirit, rebirth, beauty, fertility, transcendence, and resurrection. The lotus bud is compared with a folded heart or soul, which has the ability to blossom or awaken to realize the divine truth. This symbolizes the journey from the darkness of ignorance to the light or spiritual illumination. The lotus journey can also be equated to sisterhood and supporting each other on our spiritual journeys, whether they are within our own bodies, or even out in the world.  

My next guest, Christine Winebrenner Irick, knows the lotus journey, and has experienced the lotus transformation within her own soul as well as leading women in their own journeys around the globe.  I am so excited to share with you Chrisitne’s unique journey and how she came to connect communities of women and scattered around the world.
