Mannah

Therapeutic Astrology Podcast (TAP) explores ways to remember and reconnect to our innate wholeness. In each episode, I, Mannah, talk with authors and thought leaders about personal growth, symbolic awareness, and how to live better lives. Tap into the well of wisdom when guests from diverse therapeutic schools of thought, metaphysical philosophies, and varied astrology and meditation backgrounds come and share with me about their field.

TAP's slogan is "A Place to Call Whole." Home may not be a loving association, but being whole is all about love. 

ME? I go by the name Mannah. I was born in Denmark during one of the retrograde periods of Pluto in Scorpio! Talking about wholeness (and knowing what it means to be divorced from my true nature), my Pisces Sun has a dedicated orientation toward healing and universal belonging. 

I hope you find something that resonates as you listen through the archive. You can text me at therapeuticastrologer@gmail.com

Therapeutic Astrology Podcast

Welcome to the fourth chapter in the series about the work of Dr. Claus Springborg, who has a new book out — and it’s not a small one. We have plenty to talk about, and in this episode, we explore themes of agency, creating one’s own life, and how responsibility easily gets confused when situations are classified in certain ways.
 
Tap in as we talk about:
 
 • 
 • When and how we use automatic habits to create negative inner states, such as anxiety, nervousness about public speaking, and feeling personally attacked when given feedback.
 • How we create our lives through unconscious processes and become alienated from our own creation and the world.
 • Energy efficiency 
 • First, we create it, then fight it.
 • Recognizing one’s own agency.
 • If you are unaware that problems are your creations, you will not accept responsibility — how can we recognize what is within our control and what is not?
 • Getting the identity upside down — the essence of who you are being confused with how you structure your experience.
 • Seeing the machine room.
 • Logical categories of learning with Gregory Bateson.
 • "You can’t step into the same river twice," but the only way we can learn by trial and error is by classifying experiences as if they were the same.
 • Classifications create the world to which you are reacting.
 • Classifications that are unconscious and habitual.
 • There is no true way of classifying situations — but one’s classifications have real effects.
 • Not wanting to be mansplained to — and how to avoid it without having to change anyone else's behaviour.
 • When the problem shows up in therapy several times but hasn’t been healed — and why that is not necessarily a problem.
 •

#78 - Dr. Claus Springborg: The Knot of Alienation (Part 4)

Is it a part or your Self? Can I be in Self 100 percent while still wanting my clients not to hurt themselves? Is who I think I am truly me, or a manager? When an exile has been healed, do I still carry it within me? How do I know my parts are real and not just something I’ve made up? If you sometimes wonder about questions like these, this episode is for you!
 
This is the second episode in the series with John Clarke, helping us tap deeper into Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Parts Work. John is the Clinical Director of Calm Again Counseling, a member of the IFS teaching staff at IFSCA, and the host of the podcast Going Inside: Healing Trauma from the Inside Out.
 
Listen in as we speak about topics such as:
 
⎯ Honoring your parts by naming them
 ⎯ Being Self-led
 ⎯ How we quickly get into our parts, for example when it becomes really important to be understood
 ⎯ Noticing your body as your parts ask if their services are needed
 ⎯ Understanding the truth of the part
 ⎯ Managers burning out is one reason we go to therapy
 ⎯ Addictive parts and their intention
 ⎯ Having compassion for others softens their parts
 ⎯ Listening to angry parts
 ⎯ Asking parts: How are you trying to protect me?
 ⎯ How validation can lead to healing
 ⎯ Protectors, exiles, and perceived threats
 ⎯ We only get to know a handful of the players in our internal system
 ⎯ Parts mapping to deepen connection to parts
 ⎯ Restoring internal attachment: Will you be here when I need you the most? How much do I matter?
 ⎯ Adults still waiting for their parents to apologize
 ⎯ The self-like agenda in therapist parts that want to rescue clients
 ⎯ Protectors hurting for a good reason
 ⎯ Why it’s not helpful to shame protectors
 ⎯ Moving beyond a top-down approach that only manages symptoms
 ⎯ Why the goal is not to stop the behavior
 ⎯ Honoring separateness — don’t jump into the hole with people
 ⎯ John Clarke’s 84-year-old therapist’s words of love
 ⎯ The real job of a therapist/what therapists owe their clients
 ⎯ The paradox of healing: When you no longer need the client to get better, the client gets better
 ⎯ Empathy versus compassion
 ⎯ Why compassion fatigue doesn’t exist 
 
Thank you for being here — there’s definitely a part of me that wants you to stick around.

#79 - John Clarke (Part 2) - Parts Work Perspective - Witnessing Without Judgment - Leading from Self, Listening to Parts - Having No Agenda

"Being isn't selfing — selfing is something we do to get something right. But if we approach life as though something is wrong, we become obsessed with what is right."
 (Quote from Dr. Michael Smith around 70 minutes in)
 
There’s no way I can summarize this conversation!! You just have to lie down, press play, and soak in Dr. Michael Smith's incredible inspiration.
 
I know Michael from the podcast Primordial Dao, Present Dao, but he is also an internationally respected clinician, author, speaker, and professor. As a doctor, he combines Functional Medicine, Evolutionary Nutrition, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Meditation, Breathwork, and Qi Gong to support individuals with autoimmune conditions, complex trauma, and addiction. I copied this intro from his website, which you can find below.
 
What I can summarize is that we speak about something like this:
 
 • 

Assessing clients
 • 
 • 

Intimacy and wisdom
 • 
 • 

The difference between knowledge and wisdom
 • 
 • 

Not practical but practicable
 • 
 • 

A bit of Aries combat and survivalism
 • 
 • 

Boundaries and how to care for your energy and woundedness
 • 
 • 

Trauma bonding

 • 

What the client thinks of the world
 • 
 • 

Metaphors to understand a quality
 • 
 • 

How we all orient toward meaning
 • 
 • 

Adaptive capacity
 • 
 • 

Why TCM doesn’t really diagnose people
 • 
 • 

Caring for clients’ symptomatic well-being while also helping them heal themselves

The Six F's — we explore fawning
 • 
 • 

The universe finding the center
 • 
 • 

Different PTSD expressions
 • 
 • 

Treating the sense of self

 • 

How maturing spiritually changes how you relate to your symptoms
 • 
 • 

A wound in the stomach (gastric ulcer) and how to relate to that "stress place" metaphorically
 • 
 • 

Neuroception
 • 
 • 

The importance of bonding with others rather than shaming experiences
 • 
 • 

When soothing your pain makes you feel isolated and deep in existential pain
 • 
 • 

When life becomes a matter of just getting through the pain
 • 
 • 

The distress caused by diagnostic labels
 • 
 • 

Training the mind and heart
 • 
 • 

The self as a date at the prom
 • 
 • 

Behind spirit is soul — but what is it like? Reorienting ourselves from literal phenomena to mindful awareness
 • 
 • 

A rite of passage to let your self go
 • 
 • 

Coming to truth rather than bouncing between extremes
 • 
 • 

How healing begins with grieving and ends with gratitude
 • 
 
I really hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

#80 - Dr. Michael Smith - PTSD from a TCM Perspective - Awareness of Your Constructed Self - Where Healing Begins

“Someone who senses other people’s needs, problems, feelings, or pain and shows compassion for what the other person is going through.” This is the definition of sensitivity that Brid O'Donoghue writes about in her book "The Mystery of the Sensitive Child":
 
How can something so loving pose a challenge? We explore exactly that in this episode. Meet Brid O'Donoghue, author and spiritual healer, for a deep and meaningful conversation. Find links to her book and other work below.
 
Here are some key points we discuss in this episode:
 
 • Levels of sensitivity 
 • 

Sensitivity connected to spirituality
 • 
 • Being grounded to not be pulled into other peoples energy
 • 

The difference between disconnecting and switching off emotions
 • 
 • 

Dissociation, How to emotionally step out and then not being able to remember school
 • 
 • 

It’s not daydreaming — it’s survival
 • 
 • 

Are you okay? Being a caring person versus what do they want from me?
 • 
 • The habit of switching off as an adult
 • 

Remembering that it’s safe to be in your body and be present
 • 
 • 

The concept of running two emotional programs simultaneously
 • 
 • 

T-shirt exercise
 • 
 • 

The energy that impacts us the most is the one that was around us when we were small
 • 
 • 

Anger - picking up on frustration 
 • 
 • 

Not understanding sensitivity can lead to great trauma
 • 
 • 

Fight-or-flight response - the flaw - and living on the edge
 • 
 • Even when we want to keep everyone safe, we can become the bear 
 • Identify the triggers and talk them off the cliff
 • 

Calming tools for when kids are overwhelmed in class
 • 
 • Different types of coping to try and control the situation
 • 

Talking the day (I may have misheard this, but I liked it anyway) to come up with a strategic plan for the next day
 • 
 • To not like the texture of things for example - figuring out what calms them and using it to their advantage- finding something they like the feeling of in this case
 • Child friendly ways to bring them into the present
 
I hope you enjoy this episode and discover the hidden gems in it about this massive theme of sensitivity and Brid O'Donoghue's remarkable work in the field.

Happy New Year! I want to sprinkle some good energy in yor direction, so I’ve invited a great astrologer and writer. Gray Crawford is a full-time astrologer, and as he shares in this episode, his career really took off with Neptune in Pisces. Now, Neptune is changing signs, coming into a conjunction with Saturn. Mercury will be up to all sorts of tricks, the nodes are shifting signs, we got eclipses, Mars-Pluto dynamics — there’s a lot to look at! Gray is incredibly helpful in this episode, guiding us through what it all might mean and I do recommend his writings - see links below.
 
Best wishes — and remember, YOU HAVE A PLACE TO CALL WHOLE — even if you find yourself alone on New Year’s Eve, surrounded by annoying people, or experiencing anything in between.
 
Let’s catch up in the new year! We’ve still got lots to tap into, and I personally have a few solo episodes I want to create as well — let’s see how it will all go down in 2025!

Do you know about and or practice Energy Psychotherapy? Our guest today, Ruthie Smith, is the Director on a Training Programme teaching energy psychotherapy to counsellors and psychotherapists (run by Energy Psychotherapy Training Ltd.)
 
I (Mannah) am over the moon about her book, "Energy, Soul-Connecting and Awakening Consciousness: Psychotherapy in a New Paradigm", as it serves as an essential meeting place for different methods and ways of thinking within contemporary trauma therapy, while being rooted in ancient wisdom.
 
I had an extended interview with Ruthie because the information in her book is vast. You can choose to listen, pause, and come back to it as many times as needed. Personally, I love the long format, and you might too as you join us.
 
Here’s what you’ll hear about if you choose to stay with us:
 
 • Ruthie Smith weaves together insights from neurobiology, epigenetics, and consciousness studies, presenting a framework that alleviates trauma and fosters self-awareness and personal transformation.
 • The meaning of multidimensionality
 • The interconnections of mind and body.
 • How to experience ease and grace in the flow.
 • Methods for clearing trauma from both past and present life.
 • Realising Interdependence 
 • From 3D to 5D
 • Quantum Mechanics
 • A glimpse of awakening
 • Manifestation
 • David Hawkins scale (levels of consciousness)
 • The Veils of the ego
 • Past lives coming through into this life
 • Clearing repetition compulsion
 • The aquarian age and aquarian technology
 • How to feel better much quicker 
 • The way out of suffering
 • Clearing the clouds of our emotions
 • SHAME 
 • Exploring the shift in consciousness and accessing different timelines as part of personal healing and growth.
 • Heart consciousness - PRESENCE
 • Synchronicity
 • Pure Awareness- the light of our true nature
 • A snake unwinding 
 • The 4 ways to handle poisoned plants - different antidotes to negative emotions
 • The path of liberation
 • Tantra, the path of joy
 • Dharma - discernment
 • Spiritual principles
 • The noble truths 
 • Dhogzhen
 • Are we egoistical or coming from the heart?
 • Traumatic invalidation - when ones own perception is being invalidated - scapegoat archetype
 • Energetic Boundaries 
 • Our DNA, how we come from the starts and originally had 12 strands of DNA
 • God Eternal within the body
 • The wisdom in the unconscious 
 • The trauma of our age as being disconnected from soul
 
Thank you for listening- Be aware of a correction from Ruthie: "Made a mistake with yanas around 56/57 minutes – I say that the first ‘noble truth’ of the Buddha is to do no harm – I was muddled and this is incorrect. I meant to say 
 
 
 
‘the first teaching of the Buddha– i.e the first turning of the wheel of the dharma’ - was to do no harm
 
 
 
Similarly it isn’t the 2nd ‘Noble truth’ with Mahayana – 
 
 
 
instead say ‘the second teaching of the Buddha– i.e the second turning of the wheel of the dharma’ "

Phil Mollon PhD is a psychoanalyst, clinical psychologist, and energy psychotherapist. He has pioneered the development of Psychoanalytic Energy Psychotherapy and teaches Blue Diamond Healing, which he will guide us through in this interview. Get ready to tap into deeper healing work and explore the philosophy of healing from an energetic standpoint. Phil Mollon’s journey can perhaps be seen in his authorship—I ask him about that, and he says it’s on a continuum. Here are his books listed; I just like the sound of the titles even:
 
The Fragile Self: The Structure of Narcissistic Disturbance 
 Multiple Selves, Multiple Voices: Working with Trauma, Violation, and Dissociation 
 Remembering Trauma: A Psychotherapist's Guide to Memory and Illusion 
 Freud and False Memory Syndrome 
 The Unconscious 
 Releasing the Self: The Healing Legacy of Heinz Kohut 
 Shame and Jealousy: The Hidden Turmoils 
 EMDR and the Energy Therapies: Psychoanalytic Perspectives 
 Psychoanalytic Energy Psychotherapy: Inspired by Thought Field Therapy, EFT, TAT, and Seemorg Matrix 
 The Disintegrating Self: Psychotherapy with Adult ADHD, Autistic Spectrum, and Somato-psychic Conditions 
 Pathologies of the Self: Exploring Narcissistic and Borderline States of Mind 
 
AND the one we speak of today:
 "Blue Diamond Healing: Exploring Transpersonal and Trans-Dimensional Aspects of Energy Psychotherapy" from Karnac 2022
 
In this chapter of TAP we talk about themes such as:
 
-Energy Psychology Approaches
 - Freud and Libido - similar to descriptions of life force
 - We do the actual Blue Diamond healing!
 - The energy system is where information is stored
 - Congruence and coherence
 - Unconscious objections and sabotage patterns
 - The American commercial culture in the energy healing business - yet they all work very well by activating the subtle energy system
 -Creating necessary entropy in the too-ordered patterns in the mind
 
- Pathogens and parasites and intrusions that give rise to dysfunctional patterns
 
-Errant coding that can exist in a number of higher dimensions
 
- The reason why psychedelic work
 
- The Blue Diamond Healing and the high heart point as direct access point to the unified field
 
- The work of William Tiller
 
- Why we attract more of the same
 
- The SACRED UNKNOWN EVOLVING SELF
 
-Transference in a new light
 
- How the blue diamond field will bring about what we ask, if we dont have internal objections - but what if we have unconscious traumatized parts of us that do object to healing?
 
- Coherent thoughts expressed in coherent sentences that can work like magic
 
And much more

#85 - Phil Mollon - Blue Diamond Healing - Exploring Transpersonal and Transdimensional Aspects of Energy Psychotherapy

Welcome to the third and - for now - last segment with John Clarke, a passionate and dedicated IFS teacher and podcast host (Going Inside). In this episode, we explore the theme of anxiety through the lens of working with parts and Self. While this concludes the planned little series on IFS, I’m hopeful that John Clarke will come back for more IFS insights sometime in the future.
 
NOW for this this episode, we discuss:
 
- Threat Response in the nervous system
 
- Downward Arrow Technique (used in several therapies, NARM included) to really located the core fear/belief 
 
- How parts hold and express anxiety and fear and the practise of being okay without knowing
 
- Is anxiety a part? (We who have seen "Inside out 2" kind of think it might be this orange part??) 
 
- Fear of being taken advantage of
 
- What happens when a part has no translatable message when interviewed (by yourself or in a therapy session)
 
- The importance of starting the process by working with protectors
 
- Understanding the inner critic as a protective response
 
- Repressed anger and its impact
 
- Fear / Anger that don’t need to be acted out
 
 - Expressing emotions from multiple parts to acknowledge yourself, without focusing on the responses from other people
 
- In therapy session - how do we work with unfinished business, in the active imagination
 
- Collective anxiety and the importance of validating the difficulty of not knowing what the future holds
 
- BEING WITH (as oppose to doing something
 
- And two points in the end: From John about feeling fear and doing it anyway as one way of healing the anxiety - and from Mannah just the sense that it holds spiritual importance to overcome fear and anxiety and enter into peace of mind
 
Happy you are with us - I think we need this if we want to overcome anxiety, to speak openly about it, try and understand it to transform it & liberate from it.

#86 - John Clarke (Part 3) - Dealing with Anxiety in IFS (Internal Family Systems)

Dr. Owen Roberts, PhD, has been offering shamanic training for over 30 years and has advanced experience with shamanic healing. Today we speak about how he says, that the planet cannot sustain either our current global economy or anywhere near the current population levels. Dr. Owen Roberts have been working to avert the climate crisis via shamanism since 1979, but now believes we have passed the point where it can be averted, and now entered the stage of collapse they sought to avoid. His focus is now on developing social, agricultural and spiritual structures to save the best of what we have as we move into the next dark age.
 
TAP in as we speak about:
 
 • Can you call yourself a shaman, and is it possible to curse someone?
 • Treating nature as a family member
 • The heart is the source
 • What the spirit guides of the time said about Covid and the decline in health
 • The wave of beings currently working to destroy humanity
 • If you exceed your climate limits, your civilization will collapse
 • The system is designed to exploit
 • Shorten the distance people have to travel
 • Ceremony of little bits of life
 • Connection with the environment
 • The importance of examining your values
 • It's not the consumer that's the problem
 • Invest money in renewables
 • Nuclear power – the mother earth will curse you
 • Shamanic systems of resistance
 • Technological determinism 
 • A heartfelt connections to nature and spiritual beings
 • Detecting and understanding the spirit beings which are called “social media algorithms” 
 • Psychic manifestations of the human race (this point is so interesting!!)
