Kahuna: a rhythmic & vibrant dance, understaning the days of the week & living in the blue zone

This week Chloe takes us through the what, how, why of Kahuna (26:39). Kahuna massage is a Polynesian massage ritual that incorporates stretching, massage, and spiritual elements. Chloe discusses her experience with the floor work and full body massage portions of the ritual. She found it to be deeply transformative and cleansing. <br/><br/>Before they discuss the modality, Chloe discusses how each day of the week is ruled by a different planet, and how understanding this can help with planning one's week. She went through each day:<br/><br/>- Sunday is ruled by the Sun, making it a good day for getting things done.<br/>- Monday is ruled by the Moon, so it's better for slow, relaxing activities.<br/>- Tuesday is ruled by Mars, so it's good for starting new projects and being productive.<br/>- Wednesday is ruled by Mercury, so it's good for communication and decision making.<br/>- Thursday is ruled by Jupiter and is about expansion, spirituality and adventure.<br/>- Friday is ruled by Venus, so it's good for socializing, love and fun.<br/>- Saturday is ruled by Saturn, so it's good for discipline, commitment and exercise.<br/><br/>Chloe also discusses her thoughts on a Netflix show called "The Secrets of the Blue Zones" that she watched, which is about longevity and centenarian populations around the world.<br/><br/>Steph then shares an update on her ongoing struggle with rosacea. We also cover the astro updates for the week and the upcoming Libra season as well as the weekly card pull. <br/><br/>Some key takeaways from the episode include:<br/><br/>- Kahuna massage is a Polynesian massage ritual that incorporates stretching, full body massage, and spiritual/cleansing elements.<br/><br/>- The floor work portion involves intense stretching to assess body holdings and flexibility.<br/><br/>- The full body massage is done naked with oils in a rhythmic, dance-like motion using hands, forearms, etc.<br/><br/>- Chloe found it to be deeply transformative, cleansing, and awakening on physical, emotional and spiritual levels.<br/><br/>- Understanding the planetary rulers of each day can help with planning one's week to work with energetic flows.<br/><br/>- The Netflix show "The Secrets of the Blue Zones" provided insights into longevity from centenarian populations around the world.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Thank you for listening, we hope you enjoyed the show. <br/><br/>We are currently up for a People's Choice Podcast Award.
