Because home is more than four walls - it’s how you choose to live.

Join Clara Apollo in the UK and Emily Boyd in Australia as they explore what it really means to live 'HomeFree' beyond fixed addresses, across cultures and life stages. In this first episode, they share stories of friendship, synchronicity, peri/menopause, and the joys and challenges of a nomadic lifestyle. A warm and honest invitation to reimagine what “home” can be.

In this very first episode of The HomeFree Life, Clara and Emily introduce the heart of their new podcast: exploring what it really means to live freely, untethered from a fixed address.

They reflect on how their friendship began a decade ago across continents, and how their shared experiences of 'home-freeing' have shaped the way they see freedom, belonging and home.

Clara and Emily also weave in the midlife lens of peri/menopause and how this life stage has acted as a catalyst for reimagining home and freedom. They share the joys and challenges of a nomadic lifestyle - from the sacred sense of calling that sparks big life changes, to the practical need for community, rest and even their own kitchen cupboard!

Expect warmth, honesty, and humour as they set the scene for future episodes that will explore everything from self-care on the road to house-sitting protocols, finding community, and the soulful side of living home free.

Join Clara and Emily as they hum their way out of this first conversation, inventing their own theme tune and inviting you to carry their voices with you on your own adventures.

Here I be in Pilton, wandering down from my dear friends home to the site of the Glastonbury Festival. Sliding under a gate, meditating with the hazy setting sun, musing on new ways, old comforts, refreshing priorities and the reminder to have a lightness to your inner being, no matter what.

Flexibility as a super power, yes!!

With an invitation to the Virgo New Moon Solar Plexus Chakra Clearing and Visioning happening this Thursday 21 August - and on replay.

Explore the profound practice of qigong and the significance of the upcoming Year of the Snake with Clara's guest Ken Cohen, renowned Tai Chi and Qigong Grandmaster.

Ken brings a wealth of knowledge and a offer you a dynamic approach to self-care and healing and shares his excitement about the workshops he will be leading in the UK, particularly the Coiling Silk weekend, his first time teaching in Glastonbury, in May. He emphasizes that these workshops are not merely samplers but are designed to provide participants with practical skills that can enhance their well-being and health.

Ken highlights the importance of self-care in today's chaotic world, suggesting that while we may not be able to control external stressors, we can regulate our internal state through qigong practices.

One of the key themes of the episode is the relationship between qigong and other healing modalities. Ken expresses his belief that understanding qigong within a broader context of healing can foster respectful dialogues between conventional Western medicine and alternative practices. He encourages us to engage in our personal practices and reminds us that self-care is not just about our individual well-being but also about contributing positively to our communities and planet.

Re: the Year of the Snake. Ken shares insights from Chinese astrology, explaining how this year embodies the energy of transformation and revolution. He draws parallels between the shedding of a snake's skin and the need for personal and societal renewal.

The discussion also touches on the importance of maintaining joy and clarity during times of change, encouraging us to remain vigilant and proactive in addressing injustices in the world.

Throughout the episode, Ken's passion for teaching and his deep respect for the traditions of qigong shine through, and he invites us to join him in the upcoming workshops, promising a rich, experiential learning environment where participants can deepen their practice and connect with others.

Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or new to qigong, Ken Cohen's insights offer valuable guidance for navigating the complexities of life in the Year of the Snake. Grateful for this opportunity to learn from a master and continue the personal alchemyjourney.
