The Practical Power of Love with Rachel Singleton

Sometimes the most powerful lessons we learn come from the darkest places. It was when Rachel Singleton’s physical health took a dark turn that she was able to see the love and kindness in her body’s design and how it had been trying to speak to her for years.For over 20 years, Rachel Singleton has worked in the field of wellbeing. She trained initially in homeopathy, energy healing and flower essences – profound but gentle therapies that work with the innate wellbeing of the body and our ‘vital force’ to help restore flow in the body-being. Now, Rachel is a Three Principles coach and teacher. It is her joy to work with individuals and groups, to explore and deepen into the innate wisdom that sits in the centre of our being, and live a life more luminous from here. You can find Rachel Singleton at RachelSingleton.com and on Instagram @rachel.a.singleton.You can listen above, on your favorite podcast app, or watch on YouTube. Notes, links, resources and a full transcript are below. Show Notes* Reaching rock bottom with physical health * Exploring what health actually is * Giving ourselves permission to look in a beautiful direction * Seeing the wisdom in physical symptoms * The body as the feedback system when we step out of love * On the courage it takes to listen to our wise selves * How the messages from our bodies and lives get louder if we don’t listen * How unreliable, insecure thinking never comes with a good feelingResources Mentioned in this Episode* Rachel’s podcast The Beautiful FeelingTranscript of Interview with Rachel SingletonAlexandra: Rachel Singleton, welcome to Unbroken.Rachel: Hi, thank you. It’s lovely to be here.Alexandra: It’s lovely to have you here and to meet you, Rachel. So why don’t we start at the beginning? Tell us a little bit about yourself and how you found the Three Principles.Rachel: I’m a transformative wellbeing coach, and an artist. And I’ve been working in the field of wellbeing for about 25 years now. My journey has taken a few wiggles. I started out as a homeopath. Well, I started as an English teacher got very unwell very quickly, found homeopathy amazing, started to learn about it, and then dived into this whole world of natural ways of helping and supporting the body. And in the midst of that, I stumbled across something called flower remedies. Most people know the flower Rescue Remedy as one of those flower remedies. And I was really amazed that flowers could be medicine, but it made sense. And so I spent the next 20 years learning about exploring, listening to the flowers, and had some amazing and mystical experiences that seemed to guide my path. I was learning with people from all over the world and branching out into plant spirit medicine and shamanism and all sorts of interesting things. And at the same time, seeing clients, so I kind of feel like I was listening to the people who were coming to me, and being trained by them in terms of what they needed. And listening to plants and nature and hearing what was on offer in our natural world.There was also another journey going on, which was that for 20 years, I was very unwell for that whole 20 years, I was unwell and was in chronic pain. And that was every day. I was desperately searching, really desperately searching. I know a little of your journey from listening to your podcast. And many of the people you’ve interviewed so many of us have had such a similar experience of like trying everything.
