18. Aleta St. James is a world-renowned energy healer, life coach and author.

Hello, everyone. You are listening to Visible Panty Lines, the podcast. And these are transparent and inspiring conversations of encouragement and overcoming adversity. And so far, I lost count of how many episodes we've had already. 10 or 11 in this baby podcast. And every single guest has been so fascinating in some way or another and so happy with all the feedback that I've been getting. And you guys are clearly loving what we're doing here. We hit number 77 in one of the POD charts, so thank you so much for that. And I think had something like 10,000 downloads in November. So I am so glad that you guys are really enjoying what we're doing so far. And really, every guest kind of that I've chosen, besides being an inspiring person and someone that can really help to inspire others, every guest has had something that has really intrigued me personally. I have Alida St. James today, and I think kind of what she does with her work and with her writing and her healing. I am very big, in case you don't know already, I'm very big in metaphysical. I've written extensively about how I have a spiritual advisor and how I really live my life combining sort of the spiritual and the physical realm, not just, you know, I don't believe that we're just here as human bodies. So, you know, I think that what Alita is doing can really sort of shed some light for all of us. So, yeah, I'll stop. Stop talking now and just let her come on. Hi, Alita. Hi.

I'm so glad to be here with you. And the first thing when I heard that you're very much into the metaphysical is that I did an amazing meditation on New Year's Day after I created a vortex New Year's Eve where everybody's intentions were. And I went to a recording studio in Brooklyn with a client of mine, Ethan, and we recorded the New Year's to 2023 meditation for the year. And I'm going to send that to you because it's exactly talking about the four bodies, the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual bodies, and how we can connect the spiritual body, which is your higher self, your soul, the expansive part of us, with the physical, emotional and mental bodies. And unless we can really do that, we live in a kind of a schizophrenic kind of existence, which is now my meditation. I feel spiritual and now I'm living in the regular world, and I feel crazy. So we want to combine them so that you're living from a high frequency point of view as much as humanly possible.

Yes, I definitely think that that's an important teaching for people. It's funny how there's a lot of people out there that are like, oh, I meditate, or they believe in meditation and they understand the importance of that. But then it's like they'll say to, oh, but when we die, we die. You know? So I feel like people have such, like, limiting beliefs, and it's like, oh, what? You know, here's a concept that I can accept in my brain, but then you tell them something else that's right along that same vein, and they're like, no, that's crazy.

So, I mean, I'm very much a person that believes in linking spirit and body. And I did that, you know, successfully right after the pandemic, during the pandemic, whatever you want to call it, when I launched the gem bra on qvc, which is my crystal healing bra line, you know, it was interesting because here you have, you know, QVC is a demographic of large, pretty much older, you know, women. And I think the crystal thing is sort of trendy now. And even though they've been around for centuries and geez, Jerusalem was built on crystals, you know, I mean, crystals are nothing new. So. But just bringing this concept to people and, you know, women especially, that maybe kind of really just never were exposed to anything metaphysical before. So I've really been trying hard to help open up people's eyes to incorporating these different bodies as you. As you call them. And it's all part of our higher self. Right. So.

And it's interesting also really fascinating because Rachel was telling me about the bras, and I thought, oh, my God, that's an amazing idea, because you're right in the heart center.

Yes.

And so you're feeding the heart center, which is our emotional body, with these wonderful crystals that basically, you know, magnify energy. The thing is, if you're. It's really important that you magnifying self love and not self hatred, because then you're going to magnify by that. So it's a good purifying form. And it's also interesting. I'm 75 now, and I look maybe 50. And the reason for that is because, you know, people say, don't look your age. And I say, I never will.

You look amazing.

Yeah, because it's really about transforming energy and not getting stuck in the negatives. So I did this meditation and I realized that a lot of the things that are really coming up now in 2023, I had studied in my early 20s and. And through and now it's like all this information from joy and actualism and primal therapy that I worked with and healing with light and all those different modalities, bioenergetics are all coming into place right now because there's talk about energy healers.

Yeah.

And everybody and their uncle can be an energy healer now. I'm sorry, I call it the metaphysics.

Yeah, yeah.

Take a weekend course and all of a sudden you're an energy healer. Meanwhile, I've been in the jungles of Peru when I was, you know, mid-30s and I'm 75, it wasn't trendy India. Studying with the gurus, I went, I went to all the spiritual spots and studied with spiritual masters as well as all the Western modalities of primal therapy and healing with light. And to be able to have the consciousness, to be able to transfer energy to people as an energy healer, when I'm working with them, I studied 12 years in the actualism center to learn how to channel light and to use the different sigils to be able to really expand and, you know, you can't just think, okay, I'm thinking pink light, unconditional love. You have to have the energetics built up of years of training and then connect with these big groups of lightworkers so that you can really get the energy, you know, the wind underneath your wings, to feel the transformational energy. And so it's great that people are knowing that color heals and all this and crystals, but they really need to, like you said, go in deeper.

Yes.

Talking about, you know, life is eternal is what you're saying. Just because you make your transition doesn't mean that's the end of you. And people are really cutting themselves short. Brian Weiss wrote a wonderful book, Many Lives, Many Masters, talking about past lives. And also in the unity, there was Eric Butterworth, a unity minister, when I was in my 20s, that was talking about like 32% of the reincarnation stories are accurate, he feels, and the rest are probably not right. But you know, in Tibet, how they pick the Dalai Lama is basically when he dies, he says, okay, in five years I'm going to come back, look for me in such and such town. And they'll go, in five years they'll go to the town and they'll bring like four, five or six of his things, and they'll bring like three year old boys, maybe six of them, and see which boy picks out all of his garments and things. And the one that does, they take him, you know, to the temple and he Studies there and that's becomes. He becomes the Dalai Lama. So, you know, people in the west usually don't know those things, but in these cultures it's a normal thing. In Hinduism, Buddhism, you know, life is eternal.

Yeah, it's so true. And I think if people would kind of, I guess grasp onto this concept, for lack of a better term and open themselves up to kind of more of these ideas, that they would have happier and more fulfilling lives. And even like, I know you help people with their career success and with, you know, becoming pregnant when they have fertility problems. I mean, healing themselves from illness. There's like all kinds of amazing things.

That getting married when they feel, when they feel their soulmate, but getting divorced when they round found the wrong one. Right. I mean, yes, I think.

Right. Like all of these things are, you know, amazing and wonderful. But, you know, if it's too much for a person to think, you know, oh, this is possible, like, just start with, hey, you can like have a little bit of a happier and more fulfilling life if you open yourself up to some of these possibilities. And some of these, like you said, are ancient things and ancient concepts. So there's a reason that they have been around as long as they have. It's not, you know, it hasn't been debunked. Right. It hasn't been something. It's just grown and grown and grown. I am, you know, for, for one, for Buddhism. I've always been attracted to that concept. I had a really interesting cab ride one time many, many years ago. And it was like, I swear it was like one of those things in the movie where, you know, like, it's the Ghost of Christmas Past. Like this cab driver just came out of nowhere and was put in my path and he just had all these books about Buddhism like on his front seat. And I was at a kind of a time in my life where I was at a crossroads and here we ended up 45 minutes in the car together. And he hands me the. He tells me everything and he hands me, you know, some of these materials and you know, that was just one small step in many things that kind of changed me and my perspective and really, you know, got me on that path.

Because you magnetically attracted what you needed to in your life at a particular time, you know, in 2023. I just want to discuss this with you is that we're going into a seven year numerologically, which that means that's the energy of seven. And it's faith and trust in that everything that happens in Your life happens for your highest good and that it's being taken care of so you can turn it over and not be in the state of worry and stuff of that nature. But also a very important point that connects to what you're saying and what we're discussing is that you need to live your life with purpose and passion. And the people, they've done studies on this, there's a book called the Blue Zone that deals with the people that live in their hundreds that are kind of in certain communities. And what they find is that these people are excited about their life even if it's very simple. Like I get up and I go and take the sheep to another farmer and you know, we have lunch and then I'm with my wife or my girlfriend or whatever and then we do such and. But it's a quality of life. It doesn't have to be a fast paced purpose at all. It can be just being happy with inside of yourself and, and that creates longevity. So in 2023 people, it's called reflect and reset. So you really need to look at your life and say, am I living it from my purpose and my passion which is ultimately your destiny? Like in life shift, it's let go and live your dream, which is you have your intention 100% but then you have to let go of the outcome because it can come ways. I mean it took me seven years to have my children at 57. I always knew I have them. And people would say, my friends would say when are you going to start working on this? Look, my grandmother had my mother at 53 so you know, I'm not in such a rush. But when I started to get like around 49, I started to get serious right that long. But I finally figured it out and nailed it and got the right, you know, energies. And I had my twins at 57, so now they're 18 and I'm 75. And I look at myself as constantly like what gives me the juge to get up every day and do my clients and to have my, you know, very extensive healing practice and to keep studying with 18 year olds that are going through what they're going through. Which I will tell you is a whole different thing than seven. So you have to stay on top of the game. And that's what keeps me happy and with purpose. And so everybody that can think about themselves right now and think, even if you get up and you say, you know, like Wayne Zyre, he used to get up, put his feet on the ground from the bed and Say, thank you. Thank you. Thank you just for being here. And my life is blessed, my children are blessed. My finances are blessed. If you move into that high vibration right away, then you're starting your day off at a higher level of consciousness and you're riding above the feeling of, you know, I'm doing the same old, same old. And it's Drudge and whatever, and you don't want to live your life. That's like a waste of a life in a way. What you get excited about is, I'm going to go exercise or I just went to Osteo strong this morning. I love it, you know.

Yeah, yeah.

It just gets your muscles and your bones strong. And I'm doing the add ons, which are this bio, you know, force machine that Tony Robbins, I'm sure, has in every single room because he's in front of it, and it connects you to the earth. Energy.

Does ice baths. I saw the documentary on him. Did you watch it? He's like, oh, it's really good.

It's like, well, you know, I met him years ago when he first started to do the fireworks.

Yeah, I met him also, but I hadn't. I met him backstage at the Today show once, but I. At that time, I didn't really, like. I knew his name, but I wasn't familiar. I knew he was motivational. That was like, about the extent of it, you know.

I'll tell you one thing about Tony. If it works for him, he's going to have it in his house. I don't care if it's $200,000. It's going to be.

Himself, which is what we should be doing with our budget, of course, but.

Right.

You know, there's no. It's no limitation for him.

Yeah, yeah.

This is good for me, and I'm gonna go do it. Get it.

Yeah, I love that. I mean, within reason, of course, but for him, he doesn't really have to worry about that.

I think it's all so interesting what's going on these days. I don't know if it's just because I tune into a lot of this type of talk or if. If it's something that's being widely spoken about. But there's been this talk that we're in this, like, great Awakening. Right. And if you research great awakenings, they have happened throughout history, it's something like that is mentioned, I think, in the Bible. Right. So what exactly is that? Something that people should be tuned into and knowing about? And what does that mean?

Well, the Great Awakening is Basically coming to a place where you letting go of negative feelings about yourselves, like you're not worth it, worthless feeling, like, you know, you fail, etc. Etc. And moving into an unconditional state of love for who you are in your creature body and with your emotion and mental body. And the Great Awakening is with people that are helping other people on the planet, like yourself, into getting more of a. I'm a spiritual being having a physical experience rather than physical being trying to have a spiritual experience.

Yes, yes.

You kind of flip it to that. It all of a sudden opens everything up. Now, there's always an extreme when there's an awakening. There's also the darkness that comes up. And you can see that within the wars that happen and within the finances that happen and how people treat other people. So there's a really strong dichotomy. I mean, my brother is Curtis Lewa, who started the Guardian Angels, and I helped him.

Oh, wow. I didn't realize that. Okay, that's interesting.

And then also I helped him. He was running for mayor and I was Democrats for Sliwa because he was running on the Republican ticket. And yeah, point. Now I'm an Independent, but I was. I'm on the Democratic side, so I got many Democrats to connect in. But he was always working. You know, there's crime in the subway, so what do we do about it? There's this darkness. What do we do about it? And it came up with the Guardian Angels, which is be a guardian angel of good rather than creating the problem. And now it comes to another level of that, which is everyone needs to evolve in consciousness as much as possible so that it's about happiness and joy. And as a whole collective group, then you send that out into the universe and that helps lift the vibrational rate and it moves from the negative to the positive. So that's what's happening right now in the extremes that we're experiencing, you know, politically, financially, emotionally, all across the board.

Yeah, I know it's been like a rough couple of years, I think, for everybody, really, in different ways. And so I loved seeing the optimism of everyone going into, you know, 2023 and collectively, I think, raising our vibration so we can kind of meet some of these societal goals. So I think that is good to simplify and break it down for people because I think, like, people keep hearing this awakening thing and don't really understand, like, what their role is or what that means. And you know how you can.

It's finding those modalities that help you, like, in My work, even though I bring meditation into it in terms of my way of doing it, okay, with vibrational rates and transference of energy, it's not like, meditate and, you know, rise above your feelings. I believe we have feelings. You want to be able to identify what the feeling is. Feelings tell you where you're at. Like, if you have fear, you don't want to get rid of it. You want to transform it and keep out of the way of the bus. So for, you know, anybody that I work with, I say use your fear. Because behind the fear is double the amount of energy. You just have to tap into it. So especially when I was in show business and performing a lot and directing and writing and doing all those kind of things every day, you know, you were constantly faced with, who am I? And your own sense of validation, you know, in contrast to, did they hire me for this job? What do they think about my work? Why did somebody else get the role? And that's why I really started working on these things. And the same thing with your physical body. Your physical body is the densest, so it's going to hold on to subconscious imprints and belief systems stronger than anything else. So you have to be able to cleanse the physical body, eat properly, exercise, you know, go to your chiropractor or your doctor and finds out, like, what's functioning and what isn't. If you have high blood pressure, take care of it. You can do it naturally or you can do it, you know, with meds, whatever it is, those are the things you need to handle. And then when you move into your mental, you have to move into positive belief systems that become part of your cellular level. So at this particular point, I don't have to work on it. I'm pretty much emulating it because I've worked so hard on in this life and other lifetimes. But, you know, I'm always going to higher levels so that whatever I get and understand, I can help the people that come to me much faster than what it took for me to understand it and learn. And so it's a transference of energy that you can get when you're working with a guru, when you're working with a master, when you're working with a light worker, you know, that's a master of that. It's not so much what you say, it's how you transfer the energy. And if the person's ready to make those shifts, then that happens.

Yeah. Yeah. I think that's fascinating why I have.

Such success in terms of my Practice with people transforming and shifting their lives. Yeah, that ability to change that energy for them.

So if someone comes to see you, what exactly would that look like?

Okay, so in my private sessions in my studio or, you know, remote or on radio, I can read on radio and do healings because it's all frequency. But say you come into my studio and you. You're in the room and there's this huge bed that you sit on. And then I read chakra energies because you're like a hologram to me. And when I'm reading the energies and how they're connecting to the chakras, I can see what the dysfunction is and what the blocks are. And so then I talk to the people, a person in front of me, and I'll say, okay, so this is what I'm feeling is the block in your life. You're not feeling worthy. It's hard for you to receive. You're working more with giving than receiving, which is a lot of what women go through, and that we have to open up that feminine magnetic which you were talking about in your review of my book. So say if somebody comes in with that situation, and then they'll say, yeah, you're right, because we have a club that's called Alita is Always Right with a mug and a T shirt. The only one that I can't really read is somebody who's a sociopath. I've had four of them in my life, and I didn't get them. But mostly, if you're not a sociopath, I pretty much can nail where you're blocking and how to translate, transform it. All right, so then once you say that, then I can read your energy field and say, okay, what happened between 6 and 7 or 8? Because I can get exactly the time frame. And they'll say, oh, God, that's when my father, mother got divorced. And then I'll say, all right, now let's do a healing on that, because that trauma is still locked in your memory system. I want you to function at a trauma and into your higher consciousness. So. So I'll have them lie down. And then I have a chakra bed from John of God that I brought back Brazil because I worked there for a while with him, you know, at the Casa. And then I get on the bed and I place my hands on that area of the body that is stuck in. I have the person go back in time to that age and then actually redo the situation. So if they were just, let's say, raped, for instance, which is really traumatic. I have them get the energy up where they squash the rapist, and in their mind, they become the victor rather than the victim.

Yes.

If somebody feels that they're not worthy because, I don't know, their mother or father said, you're not good enough. Why don't you do this? You're, you know, a mess. I change that whole dynamic and scenario within them. So they connect with their adult to their inner child, and they have a different relationship that starts to build. And then we go on it's clear shift and then recreate. Like, what do you want? Okay, I want this career. See it as if it's already happening up into your higher levels of consciousness, because you have the thought of what you want as if it's already happening. So you start, I am. And then whatever that intention is, so happy that I've actually created an amazing career. And then you say what that is and that it's expanding and growing constantly. So I have a lot of people that are in show business and then tremendously successful writers, painters, you know, people that are in the music business because they always want to create and keep going. And also, like, people that come to me, if they're a lawyer or they're into, you know, corporate, they're also very creative on the side. You know, like, you wind up finding out that they're painters or they're, you know, writers, even if they're in the corporate world because it's part of their nature. And so they want to live their biggest life. And I look and see, okay, what's happening on your subconscious that you can't get a hold of. That I can see really clearly because it's a hologram in your space. And let's change it. Let's change that memory dynamic implants in the brain, a whole different picture, and then get that vibration higher. Because whatever trauma you went through, that's still in the brain. That doesn't go away. But you want to bring the positive picture up to a higher frequency. So when you're in stress, that's what you go to, not the trauma. So before you know it, you're not living out of your trauma of survival and protection. You're living into God consciousness of your higher spirit, the energy, the God that is whatever you want to connect to. Some people connect to angels, it's great beings of light. Whatever you do, they're there channeling through you, through your higher self. So your unlimited potential. I mean, that's what Deepak talks about. Unlimited. The field of unlimited potential. In my book, Life Shift. I call it the field of love. You want to get up into that higher frequency connected with your lower chakras all the way up. Create from that place. Because there's no limitation up there. Believe it. And if there's any doubt, let's release the doubt. And then the thing that keeps me going is the miracles that happen with my clients every day. The ones that get married, the ones that have this great career, the ones that couldn't get pregnant and now they have, you know, a baby that they're holding in their arms.

Women. Because that's the hardest when you can't get pregnant. You know, you reach a point where you want to have that child and you know what? That's. Nobody's going to stop you.

You know, you can walk on.

Yeah.

I think, you know, the universe gave it to women to do because I think if men had to go to for, you know, through fertility, we wouldn't have too many children. Oh yeah, it's really hard. But once you get through it and women don't give up, they keep going. Those of the time.

So true. That's so true.

And they, they have to grow through it because they have to have trust and faith and bring in a higher level and all those kinds of things and attract the right doctor. And it's like a whole thing. But that's a big part of my work. But it's not the only thing. But it gives me a tremendous pleasure when I see these little kids. And because I work with light, as soon as they're born, if I go and see them, they see the light even though they're not supposed to be able to see. They look at me because they see the light. They've been seeing it while they've been in vitro. Yeah. The whole eight or nine months. And they go, yeah. So it's really cool. It's really cool.

That's amazing. And I definitely need to come see you sometime when I'm.

This would be amazing. We could do like a follow up.

Like an in person. So thank you so much. So now where can people find you if they want more information or they want to buy your books, where can they find you online?

You can email me at alita@elita st.james.com or I have my website, alita st.james.com okay, awesome.

Thank you so much for taking the time to chat with me. And I feel like we could definitely talk a lot more. So we'll have to do a redo or part two. Definitely coming up soon. And, and like I said I want to. I'm going to talk to Rachel and hopefully come see you as well so I can experience this in person, because this is amazing and I do believe in the work that you're doing, and it is so important. And for what it's worth, we have something in common. I. I had a past life. I had met with a woman who specializes in telling you about your past lives, basically. And she told me I was an energy healer in ancient times.

Oh, my God, the chills on that. Yeah.

And I.

Like helping people and everything you do in your work. And my husband jokes that I think I'm like a doctor. I diagnose everyone.

I try to help everybody.

So I think, hey. Right. I know.

Oh, that's beautiful.

That's what you're doing.

What.

What you do is amazing and I'm excited to. To meet you and explore further. So thank you again, Alida.

Oh, and thank you for having me on. It's really been wonderful for me. I could feel the upliftment of energy with the two of us talking together.

Bringing in because I'm a bit on the stressed side today, so for whatever reason, I don't know, I feel like it shouldn't be a stressful day, but it feels stressful.

It's your sense of birthday.

Yes.

You want it all to go well.

I know. Right, Right, exactly. And he's super excited.

Unknown. And it's also Mercury retrograde.

Yes. I think that is definitely having an impact. I feel that very much.

But here you've got the energy.

Yes. Perfect. Thank you so much. It was like. Like you said, the universe brings you what and who you need at the right time. So I feel like talking to was, like, absolutely perfect.

Same here.

Yeah. Thank you so much. And you've been listening to Visible Panty Lines, the podcast new episodes drops every Sunday at 8am.
