This episode is my download on lomi lomi as the practice of intimacy - from the perspective of practitioner and receiver.
Contact: hello@alohamagdalena.com
This episode is full of contemplations about intimacy as a way of life and examples of practices that create and deepen the first and most important relationship of your life - relationship with yourself.

'Intimacy is about truth. When you realize you can tell someone your truth, when you can show yourself to them, when you stand in front of them bare and their response is "You're safe with me"âthat's intimacy.' - this quote by Taylor Jenkins Reid becomes my starting point of today's episode where I dive deeply into intimacy as something much, much more than what we see in the mainstream.

I believe that dreams come true when you simply talk about them. But, you see, speaking about your dreams is not easy. It can make you feel shy, vulnerable and extremely exposed, because dreams are windows to the soul. Dreams are intimate.

What happens when you try to avoid "difficult" emotions, ""difficult" conversations or feeling hurt? You avoid the full spectrum of life. Because life is not a game of avoidance, it is sacredness to be experienced at its every aspect.

I had lomi lomi session with a new Client the other day. After the session, the only thing that she kept repeating was: wow... wow... this is... I feel... wow!
Yes, I know. The power of lomi :)
This situation, as well as the talk we had later, inspired me to record a podcast episode about exactly this. About wowness, and how to practice it. How to learn to feel good.Not only after lomi lomi session, but daily :)

If I could say one thing to the whole world, it would be: it is okay to feel your feelings! It is safe to meet yourself and hold yourself in your emotional waves!
Having said that, I know that it is NOT EASY. Most of us were not lucky enough to learn how to navigate emotions from our parents and other significant others when we were children. So now, to mature and grow up, we need to learn how to swim in the waters of feelings. How to navigate these waters. What to do when a wave of emotions takes us.
In this episode I am sharing some of my ways to feel my feelings, as well as stories of my lomi lomi Clients.
All events mentioned in this episode are true :)

In this episode I am talking about death  - metaphorical and literal. Death in the context of lomi lomi as a rite of passage. Death as the end of the old, of the life as you know it - and start of the new. Death as a brave step to the Unknown. But also - a very literal death of physical body, end of a journey in this human form. I am sharing some powerful practices and personal insights.Â
This episode comes with a trigger warning. If you are dealing with the topic of death right now in your life, please decide for yourself if you want to listen to it now or not - for your own care and wellbeing â¤ď¸

I am diving deeper into gratitude, understood as a feeling of true appreciation for everything that brings meaning to our lives. But also, gratitude understood as a conscious, deliberate practice, a training that results in more meaningful connections with ourselves, others and the whole world.
In order to do that, over the last few months I've been training my gratitude muscles and observing how attitude of gratitude has changed the way I experience life. I share my practices and observations in this episode.

What a historical moment for my tiny podcast! For the first time I am with a guest! And what a guest it is! I invited my dear student, friend and lomi lomi practitioner Ăsgeir Baldursson from Mahalo Massage Therapy Reykjavik, to talk about lomi and life. From a stressed businessman in chronic pain to a massage practitioner helping his family and clients - Ăsgeir's story of life in the Aloha Spirit has touched and inspired me deeply. I hope it will touch you as well.

Knowledge is power... or is it? How about: knowledge is useless unless you practice it, implement it, EMBODY IT? After all, we more-or-less KNOW how to be healthy, happy and at peace... So why are we not FEELING IT? Well, because the BODY doesn't care about theory - only about practice.
This episode is all about knowing versus doing. When it comes to health, wellbeing and self-care, we might know much, but if we don't embody it... then all this knowledge is for nothing.
I look into four areas of my life (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual) and invite you to do the same. Together we look for all these little, everyday things that we can EMBODY TODAY to make a difference in how we live life.Â

My favorite Hawaiian word is PONO. On the surface level, you can translate it as goodness, uprightness, morality or excellence. But I like to dive deeper into even more profound meaning of pono. When something is pono, it is as it should be, naturally, gracefully. In perfect order. At ease. Reflecting the true nature of things.Â
In this episode I use the word pono as an inspiration and a doorway to speak about living life from deep embodiment of truth, righteousness and ease.Â
I hope you will enjoy listening to it!
With love,Â
Magdalena

I often (like, really, really often) hear from my Clients that lomi lomi is more than just a massage. I get it, because it is also much more than just a massage to me. So much so, that I actually feel the massage part of lomi lomi is almost... accidental ;)Â
This episode is co-created with my Clients, subscribers of Aloha Newsletter and fellow lomi practitioners. I asked them: what makes lomi more than just a massage for you? What is this "more"? I am sharing their answers and my personal stories and insights around lomi.Â
Thank you for you and enjoy this episode!

In today's episode I explain:
- what does it mean to live with open heart
- how can massage support this process on physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level
- what is one easy thing that you can do any time to feel more connected to your heart, to yourself and the world
And in the intro to the episode I also explain that a massage is not always a solution to the problem.Sometimes what is needed is psychiatric consultation, psychotherapy, counselling, mediation, physical consultation, rehabilitation... but even in such cases, I believe with all my heart that a caring, respectful touch like lomi can be of great support.

"Massage is a journey" â translated from metaphorical to literal, based on stories of my lomi lomi Clients and my own experience.
"I felt like I didnât have a body"
"I was really far away"
"I felt like I was flying"
"I didnât know where I was"
"It was hard to come back"
"I forgot myself"
â these are words of my clients. So⌠what does this massage DO to you? Where does it take you?
- Why lomi lomi sometimes has effects similar to hypnosis?
- What can you do to journey during massage? Is it normal? Is it safe? Is it pleasant?
- Where do people "go" when they journey?

How did this relationship started and grew, what "went wrong" along the way and how it is now? And, most importantly, why I don't want to be in this relationship anymore?

Silence is the language of god, all else is poor translation. - Rumi.
So... what happens, when there is no noise? No external stimulation? Nowhere to run, nothing to hide behind? Just you, naked in the silence? How does it feel, how can it touch you and affect you?
This episode is paradoxical - I break the silence to talk about the silence. I share my experiences of absolute silence, of silent retreats, of travelling alone. And, of course, of healing silence during lomi lomi sessions.Â

Four levels, layers, elements in life and in massage. Physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. None of them more important than the other, all of them intertwined and connected.
This topic of layers, levels, elements, components originally started as a purely "massage" topic. Talking about four elements of massage  was my way of explaining lomi lomi to my Clients and Students. But, since lomi is not just my job but my spiritual path and greatest teacher of life, soon enough I realized that "as within, so without" and that exactly the same layers that I see in massage, apply to every life situation.Â
In this episode I am deconstructing, decomposing reality into these four layers and I am giving you ideas and inspirations of how to balance these four elements in your life... and not just on the massage bench ;)

"Holding space" - yyyy what is it? And more importantly - how to do it? How to be truly supportive for yourself and others? How to show radical compassion? What are the dos and don'ts of truly showing up for others... and for you?Â
This episode is all about space holding. Because to me, holding space is an essential part of living a touchful life. When we as humans can show up for ourselves and each other in radical compassion, in truth, in vulnerability, when we can witness each other not only in our best moments, but also moments of despair, fear, grief - miracles happen. World changes. Hearts open.Â

"Be the change that you want to see in the world" is a famous quote attributed to Gandhi. And even though this is not exactly what Gandhi said, these words inspired me to talk about what it means to live in integrity, in truth and responsibility. I believe that nobody is going to save us - we ourselves need to birth the world that we want to live in.Â
This episode is all about the divine and mundane. Can you be very spiritual and very down-to-earth at the same time? What it even means to be spiritual? Is lomi lomi some spiritual woo woo stuff or real physical therapy? What is ordinary magic and how to experience it? And why, as always, balance is the key?Â

Fears thrive in the shadow. That's why I want to talk about them! By putting our fears on the table, in full light, we have a chance to take a good look at them... and maybe, to realize, that they are not so scary? Because... what if the scariest thing is the fear itself?
In this episode I truthfully talk about things that I am afraid of in my biz and life. Things that bring up shame. But talking about them brings freedom and empowerment!

Life is in the breath! Because conscious, free breathing makes you feel more present, more relaxed, more alive. So, in this episode I breathe a lot! I explain why massage is touch + breath and how they can't be separated. I share my first memory of conscious breathing and what in changed for me.
Also: why I breathe so loudly during lomi? How to use breathing to feel and to heal? How to let go of physical and non-physical tensions? Why we don't want to breathe? And why is the exhale more important than the inhale?
Breathe in, breathe out and enjoy. Thank you for you, thank you for listening to my Touchful Podcast!

I'm so sick of pretty, I want something true... don't you? In this episode I am talking about pressure of perfection and about being more than just your gift. What does it even mean in practice? Who are we when our "gifts" are taken away? And what is THE ONE THING to remember no matter what?
This talk is personal, honest, raw, unscripted, totally imperfect, sometimes chaotic and always authentic. Also, in this episode I am singing, even though I can't :) And I tear up a bit, but I have every reason to.

In this episode I am talking about my life before and after Hawaiian lomi lomi. About all the changes and challenges that this practice brought to my life. About the prophetic dream that I had. About what it means to REALLY touch somebody. About what is standing between me and love. About why I am not so sweet anymore. And about how I changed a country... a little bit :)
Enjoy!
