Leona on Light: Recent Episodes
leona
Intuition, blessing, creativity, mystery and quirky honesty around life, breath, joy, pain, and growth. Baring witness to the gutsy stuff through full presence, Leonas hope is to keep compassionate company with others who wish to be reminded that they are always enough and that light - their light- knows what to do. Leona MacDougall is a visual artist, empath, writer, singer/song writer, spoken word artist, Reiki Master and Blessing Arts Life coach. Through meditation, song, poetry, spoken word and conversation this pod cast is a portal for intuitive play, sometimes prickly but unapologetic humour and whatever energy is stirring the collective heart that day.
Alot has been happening here in Nova Scotia! This podcast offers you a moment...to breathe.

This podcast is about starting where you are. Without fail, I'v discovered that 's where the best bessings rise.
As I sat down to record this podcast, my husband was singing and playing guitar a couple of rooms away. He did not know that I was recording my podcast. Rather than wait...I did what I planned.. His living room concert is in the background .
Starting where you are is good!

Setting an intention for a new year or a new day is powerful. Here are three words I have added to this ritual that have helped me and my heart remain open! I'll leave it right here for you...
Happy 2023 everyone 💓!

Today I am offering you a Blessing of Slow Beauty. I am still learning that joy is more accessible when I'm relaxed enough to be present for it! This is the shortest podcast I've done to date! So....why not give it a try!

What does it mean to root to rise? What does it mean to be born into your roots? What does it mean to rise into your roots? When do your roots show?
Welcome to Leona on Light! This week we are discussing roots!
As the world -at different times and in their own unique ways- struggles to find a safe path to adjust and transition from a pandemic to an endemic I am offering you a moment of ELEMENTAL Beauty. I do so to support you in regulating your emotional rhythms on this wild Covid journey ( we've all been on). I offer this Blessing Meditation as a reminder that no matter what - we still have nature as a living example of our own divine nature. I offer it in case you need a soft place to land right now.
From my quiet place to yours,
Leona
Welcome to the Blessing of Awakened Beauty. My hope is that you will find the energy of Awakened Beauty that you need to be with the world well today.
Staying Blessed Together in any loving way we can,
Leona
Loving ourselves well. Loving each other in a way that leaves space for growth and healing and as many miracles as possible. Whatever your heart needs to feel whole on this Valentines Day...this podcast hopes to meet you there.
Love,
Leona
Welcome to the 1st podcast of Leona On Light for 2022. Join me as we explore what your word for 2022 is!
This podcast is dedicated to remembrance, gratitude and metaphoric life reminders like leaves.
This podcast arrived this morning all because I read an article on a magazine that featured artists, writers and plants. It's less than 7 min long.....I think that you might like it!
I have created a Chakra Meditation for this Thanksgiving weekend. Why? Because when I energy is brighter and clearer I am able to be with all that is. This awareness helps me realize what, where, who my blessings are- so this makes it a lot easier to count them.
Stay Blessed this weekend,
and always,
Leona
I had a pretty nasty flare up with osteoarthritis last night. I was comforted and guided this morning through the message of Gentle Beauty. The universe loves to deliver the most perfectly timed wisdom.
Todays Podcast was fun and a surprise. I hope it supports you in tuning into a divine connection with your hopes and desires.
Staying Blessed Together is good stuff,
Leona MacDougall
This podcast was inspired by a sweet and beautiful man. I invite you to share this with anyone who wishes to "Come Home to Themselves" more often.
Love,
Leona
The amount of technical challenges I had recording this podcast (which explains why I am a week and a half off my usual time) was such an interesting metaphor for how difficult this one was- emotionally to offer. To Bless the One Who Was Bullied and the One Who Bullied is a very vulnerable conversation. Take a big deep breath ....hopefully it will be a podcast that will serve you or someone you support.
Staying Blessed Together,
love,
Leona

I am here to learn that I am enough so this has allowed me to get practiced and passionate about keeping company with others who are interested in being reminded that they are too!
More than enough.
Staying blessed together.
Leona
I adore colour. This podcast is offered as a reminder of its intelligence and magic.
*in the Blessing I have a used this quoted text from A Course in Miracles: 'every decision you make is a choice between a grievance and a miracle. -Credit and thanks.-
To honor a most unprecedented day where over 500 radio stations across Canada joined together to listen to the stories of Residential School survivors, Elders, Indigenous leaders, musicians and teachers share their stories and experiences, I am sharing the Blessing and Meditation of Quiet Beauty. This Day of Listening has been a most sacred one!
Thank you for listening.

Happy Sumner Solstice everyone. I wish you the most Blessed Full Moon today. I waited an extra day to do this podcast so that I could celebrate this important ( ok...they are all important) and timely Full Moon with you! Waking up to another way of being is a good thing as we cooperate our way through the middle of our 2nd phase of covid protocol (here in Nova Scotia).
Thanks for breathing with me.
Staying Blessed Totgether,
Leona MacDougall
This blessing is for a couple of body parts we take for granted: our hands. I have placed it here in this podcast for you.
Staying blessed together!
Love,
Leona
P.S. the painting here is one of the bits of stuff I made with my hands😉
I was struggling with doing this podcast today so I performed a little ritual.to help me in moving past this 'stuckness'. Grateful Beauty made very welcome appearance whilst I did this ritual. Have a listen!
The remains of 215 children were found in a mass grave in Kamloops, BC on the site of what once was Canadas largest Indigenous residential schools. This meditation is my humble attempt to honour these sweet, innocent souls and those who loved them.
This weeks podcast falls on a Full Moon. I think that is perfect because a Full Moon is such a great time to not only release but to pay attention to what it is you wish to make more space for. I, for one, am always, absolutely up for more Pretty Power. Thanks for listening!
Staying Blessed Together,
Leona MacDougall
There are too many ways to disconnect with ourselves and with others at the best of times. Covid 19 has presented more challenges where connectivity is concerned , and while it is true that safety and protection are paramount right now, people love to be connected to people. It"s how the world moves and groves at its best. Maybe that is why the blessing of Universal Beauty worked very hard to get my attention this week. My hope- though my Pod Cast offering today, is that Universal Beauty fills your heart!
Staying Blessed together,
Love,
Leona
This episode was inspired by the third wave of covid here in our beautiful province of Nova Scotia. My hope is that it will sit with you...while you breathe.
Staying Blessed Together,
Leona MacDougall
Welcome to Leona On Light. This episode " Close to the Floor" invites you to recall what being at home means for you. I felt called to share some personal stories as my way of blessing the homes we live in: our bodies. Thanks for listening!
Welcome back,
Every Wednesday I will be offering you a podcast: Leona On Light. I choose to share these on Wednesdays b/c this day has been so irreverently labelled as something to dread. As a "hump day" it implies that this day is void of Blessings but interestingly enough, in the world of 'Blessings' Wednesday aligns with the traditional rhythm in the art of Blessing called Thresholds. A new territory at which we stand that may appear bumpy ( even humpy), a Threshold requires us to dig into our own magical resources and take mindful action. This is a space where the great mystery lives and breathes. This podcast: Leona On Light is about keeping good company with you so that I can remind you how brilliant you are, that you are more than enough, right now- regardless of whether you can carry a tune, how brightly your roots are showing or what day of the week it is! So Happy Hump Day!
Stay Blessed sweet souls,
Leona MacDougall
To Bless An Uprise began after a night of dreaming, A dream where memories, lessons, hope, despair and a new day demanded that I get up and write. Thinking that I was penning a more traditional Blessing it morphed into it's own expression. ( maybe Blessing Rant -if there's such a thing). And yet....I sense ( and hope) it may bless you if you want it to!
Thanks for listening!
