Shownotes
· Kumu’s cultural heritage came from being born in the Hawaiian Islands and learnt at 23 his background of culture and Hawaiian spirituality. He met his teacher in Molokai and had a commitment ceremony to become the 51st generation of a cultural practitioner.
· His Hawaiian spiritual background has around 4000 deities and has numerous pillars of focus including love “Aloha”, “Pono” – alignment about things being in the rightful place and how it relates to your “Ohana” – your family/community.
· Kumu says that people come to seek happiness and Kumu teaches the wisdom from his ancestry to help people find the change in order to create and maintain happiness.
· Understanding that breaking the confines of how to get out of the things that make people feel stuck is what Kumu helps people with and creating the change that is required.
· If we find ourselves unhappy, we have to create change. Look to the source. That source is in our ancestry, our wellbeing to our higher power is a way of nurturing that special relationship. This includes communicating through prayer, chanting, meditation etc and requires discipline.
· The wind, trees, land, the moon are all examples of the ancestry we can source for our wellbeing.
· The light and warmth of the Sun are one of the most healing and growing energy powers and plays an important role in the duality with the cooling, feminine energy of the moon.
· Kumu’s definition of happiness is stillness in silence and being in complete and total alignment with what you are born with and what you aspire to be in the future. It is all the time and is a state of being.
· Kumu’s morning routine is giving thanks and prayers to his family and ancestors.
· The top things that make Kumu’s heart sing is singing, spending time with his family, making space/design for how things look/make him feel around him
· Kumu’s fantasy meal is tacos
· Stories from Molokai and Darkness of Night are amongst Kumu’s favourite books.
· Forgiveness and surrendering are one of the best things we can do for our health
· The things that make Kumu laugh are comedy jokes, flatulence, the stuff we tend to hide as humans that when it occurs it’s a relief to acknowledge its presence.
· Kumu’s gratitude practice includes chanting and shares a chant with Carla

simple principles to live your life by with your host Carla Maree
Monday Oct 03, 2022
Monday Oct 03, 2022
Principles that I live by
Carla talks about her recent time in Bali from yoga, to ice baths. She’s enjoyed reading and taking some time out to work on herself, her business and to relax.
· Principle 1: Exercise and Movement
Walking and moving the body to keep the energy moving. This includes walking the dog an hour a day whilst trying to get 7000-10000 steps per day and having a regular yoga practice daily and doing a weight-based practice three times a week.
· Principle 2: Meditation
This has been a game-changer. This includes mantras, transcendental meditation, breathwork and stillness. This allows intuition to come through and ideas for things to listen too.
· Principle 3: Lots of fluid
This includes a green juice; a celery juice has been part of a daily practice from learning about this from the medical medium. Drinking a lot of water to help through the day is key to hydration. Magic Mike drinks also helps to combat lethargy.
· Principle 4: Laughter
Big belly laughs, and entering into that childlike energy brings so much joy.
· Principle 5: Being social with friends and family
Whilst being introverted, it is important to maintain connections that you are surrounded with people that uplift you and make you be a better person.
· Principle 6: Do something every day that brings you joy
Make a list and every day do something that brings you joy.
· Principle 7: Spend time in nature
Especially for those that work indoors, in front of a computer etc. Spending time outdoors reminds you how restorative it is for your soul
· Principle 8: Get enough sleep
This is so important to priortise as this helps to restore and recover at night time.
· Principle 9: Make time to read
Leaders are readers. Anything to develop your skills, and higher thought processes.
· Principle 10: Know your values
This is great as a tool to help with decision-making to lead from the heart not the head. This helps to navigate what is important to you.
· Principle 11: Setting goals and self-development
Being a student of life and learning new skills and adapt to new situations helps you grow as a person.
· Principle 12: Travel
This helps me broaden my horizons and helps me learn about my place in the world.
· Principle 13: Have a gratitude practice
When we have that time to realise the things we have to be grateful for we are able to be blessed with more things coming our way too.

EPISODE – Carla solo episode: The 12 Laws of Living
SHOWNOTES
- The Law of Divine One – everything and everyone is connected. Every thought, action etc affects everyone else. We are all connected subconsciously. We are a part of One and we all want to see others thrive.
- The Law of Energy/Vibration – everything moves as frequency/vibration and each action and thought has its own frequency. Think positive then more positive things come.
- The Law of Action – each action will provide a different result. Each action must support our thoughts, dreams and goals for the world.
- The Law of Correspondence – we are in control of our life, every action we make will be reflected in our outer world and our inner world. Make the internal changes so that the external changes.
- The Law of Cause and Effect – it is each of our action that creates a reaction. Every statement you make is an example of this Law. What goes around comes around, there is karmic retribution
- The Law of Compensation – Blessings will come in various forms, money, gifts, friendships etc. Generosity and donations will come back to you.
- The Law of Attraction – This Law will bring people of things into our life by actions, thoughts or emotions. We use this energy to attract more energy. Once you start to raise your vibration, this will help to raise vibration of things that improve life on your own frequency.
- The Law of Perpetual Transformation of Energy – this law states that higher vibrations can transform and uplift the lower energies. If you want to create change, you vibrate higher and you let go of the lower energy that keeps you stuck. We want to create the life we desire.
- The Law of Relativity – in order for us to develop, we have to go through problems while keeping connected to the heart. Whenever we are facing challenges, there are other people worse off.
- The Law of Polarity – everything has an opposite. We have to experience the ups and downs of life, we have to feel to be sad, so we know what happiness feels like.
- The Law of Rhythm – everything has a different rhythm in each cycle so it’s about getting ready to face the negative part of each cycle so you can recognize some of the things that are negative and then focus on seeing the benefits of this and looking at the positives and also recognizing that this is a cycle.
- The Law of Gender – this is about yin/yang and masculine/feminine energies. We all possess this. Energy, logic, husting, intellect = masculine energy. Love, patience, gentleness, nurturing etc = feminine energy. Showing and understanding where we can balance this.

Top 10 Best Wayne Dyer Book by Nerdy Creator
1. The Shift
“The greatest hunger of all is the hunger for meaning.”
This is the first book I read from Wayne Dyer. During my recovery from depression, I had some insights on spirituality but I didn’t know exactly what it is and how to explain it. This book speaks to me on a deep level and helps me learn a lot about my experience. It also got me started reading other spiritual books.
If you are someone who is always working hard or doing a lot, but somehow still feel unfulfilled in life, this is the book to read. It takes you on a journey from ambition to meaning and let you realize that your spirit yearns for meaning, not ambition.
The book is also made into an inspiration movie of the same name and released by Hay House. Wayne Dyer acted in the movie as himself.
2. Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life
“Sharpen a blade too much and its edge will soon be lost.”
This book is Wayne Dyer’s interpretation of Lao Tze’s Tao Te Ching. He spent one whole year reading and practicing the verses of the Tao. It consists of 81 chapters and is meant to be read slowly.
You don’t have to be a Taoist to receive wisdom from this book. Tao Te Ching is just a way of life and Wayne Dyer makes it easy for you to apply Lao Tze’s teaching to your daily life. At the end of each chapter, he provides action steps which you can take to make your life peaceful, inspired and harmonious.
If you want to have a book that you can refer to from time to time and remind you to be at peace, this is the book for you.
3. Being in Balance
“There’s no such thing as stress; there are only people thinking stressful thoughts.”
Wayne Dyer says that everything in the universe is in balance, except we humans. He points out that there is a very subtle imbalance between our dream (our reason for life) and our habits (our way of life). For example, our desire to enjoy life is often hindered by our stressful thoughts of needing to achieve more.
This book is not about adopting new strategies to change your behavior. It’s about aligning your thinking habits with your deepest desires and restoring the natural equilibrium in your lives.
In this book, Wayne Dyer covers nine imbalances that will help you be more aware of these unhealthy habits. This book is suitable for those who feel dissatisfied with their life but doesn’t understand why.
4. The Power of Intention
“You feel good not because the world is right, but your world is right because you feel good.”
As the book title suggests, this book is about intention. This intention isn’t your intention to do something; it’s the intention of the universe.
Wayne Dyer believes that there is an invisible force and energy field that is bigger than ourselves. When we surrender to this built-in intention in the universe and trust its power, we co-create the lives we desire.
This book speaks to the heart. It allows you to feel connected to the universe and its 7 faces — creativity, kindness, love, beauty, expansiveness, abundance and receptivity. Not only will this book inspires you, it also provides a step-by-step guide to help you apply these principles into your daily life.
5. 10 Secrets for Success and Inner Peace
“Have a mind that is open to everything and attached to nothing.”
This is a book about success but in the perspective of spirituality. It’s not about goal setting, financial planning, or choosing the right career. It’s about having inner peace which is what that truly defines success for him.
In this book, Wayne Dyer elaborates on 10 principles that will guide you to tranquility. Unlike other books from him, this book is a quick read and doesn’t have many personal stories. So it is suitable for anyone who is new to Wayne Dyer’s works or spirituality. It’s also good for someone who wants a quick recap of his teachings.
6. Wishes Fulfilled
“The greatest gift that you were ever given was the gift of your imagination.”
This book is about mastering the art of manifesting and getting what you really really want.
The first part of this book gets you to change your concept of yourself and recognize something extraordinary within yourself. As per Wayne Dyer, your highest self is where you realize you are connected to the Divine. When you realize this, you can be anything and do anything.
The second part of the book lays the foundation of how to manifest your wishes. The author says that if you want to accomplish something, you must first expect it of yourself. And it’s not about making positive affirmations; it’s a spiritual knowing. Deep down inside, you must know that you are what you already want to be for the manifestation to work.
7. There’s a Spiritual Solution to Every Problem
“Thinking is the source of problems. Your heart holds the answer to solving them.”
This book is about dissolving the problems created by your mind. As per Wayne Dyer, problems are nothing more than mistakes in our thinking. If we tap into the higher frequency of our spirits, we can eliminate any problems in our lives.
In the beginning of the book, the author shares his experience on having a heart attack and how he shifted from feeling self-pity and denial to gratitude and love. Even though his heart is still damaged, he was able to find peace and recovered when he shifted his energy from negativity to positivity.
The book is suitable for you if you are open to new age philosophies and learning through anecdotes.
8. Wisdom of the Ages
“This book is not about appreciating poetry and philosophy as much as it is about applying the wisdom of these writers to our everyday lives.”
If you have read Wayne Dyer’s books before, you will know he is fascinated by teachers who lived before us and likes to quote them in his books.
For this book, he selects 60 teachers from a variety of eras and cultures and shares his interpretation of their works. The ancestral masters include Buddha, Michelangelo, Rumi, Whitman, and Jesus. At the end of each chapter, he also suggests how we can apply these teachings and wisdom to our modern lives.
This book is great for those who enjoy reading poetry or about important people from the past and what they have taught the world.
9. Your Erroneous Zones
“Happiness means no complaining about the things over which you can do nothing.”
This book is not only Dr. Wayne Dyer first book, it’s also one of his best-selling books. It has sold over 35 million copies!
This book teaches you to take control of your life and not base your self-worth on other people. If you have problems with guilt, worry, anger, and procrastination, this book will help you deal with these erroneous zones and get out of the victim mindset.
However, if you are used to the author’s gentle, inspirational writing tone, this book might not be suitable for you. Before he had deeper insights on spirituality, his writing tends to be more on the motivational side and harsh. He even used some sexual references in the book which some might find inappropriate.
Nonetheless, the content in this book is still useful and worth checking out.
10. I Can See Clearly Now
“There is some sort of purpose associated with everything that arrives in your life.”
This is a memoir on Wayne Dyer’s life. He recalls and shares many of his intimate experiences from the time he was a boy up to the time he wrote this book.
Through examining his own personal life, he wants to show us that there are no accidents in life. Each step of our journey has something important to teach us, be it good or bad. At the end of each chapter, he reveals what he has learned from each incident in his life and how they all lined up together.
If you want to know the backstory of his books, this is the book to get. In this book, Wayne Dyer shares how he got his first book, Your Erroneous Zones, to become the bestseller and what got him to write some of the books on this list.
Top 10 Best Louise Hay Books from Nerdy Creator
1. Heal Your Body
“If we are willing to do the mental work, almost anything can be healed.”
Known as the little blue book by the author, this book has helped hundreds of thousands of people to awaken their ability to their own healing process.
The author believes that disease (or rather “dis-ease” as per the author) can be reversed by simply reversing mental patterns and creating a new thought pattern.
This step-by-step guide can be used as a reference book. Just look up your specific health challenge and you will find the probable cause for this health issue and the information you need to overcome it.
If you want to understand the mental causes for your physical illness and the metaphysical way to overcome it, this book is for you.
2. You Can Heal Your Life
“Remember, you have been criticizing yourself for years and it hasn’t worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.”
This book is about loving yourself. Every issue you have in your life regardless if it’s about work, finances, health or relationship, you can trace all of them back to the lack of self-love. The problem that we think we have in life is rarely the problem.
In this book, the author takes you through a session just as if you came to her as a private client and attended one of her workshops. She will help you to understand how limiting your thoughts are and how to respond to situations differently.
If you want to free yourself from your negative thinking patterns, read this book.
3. The Power Is Within You
“When I talk about responsibility, I am really talking about having power.”
A follow-up to her previous book, You Can Heal Your Life, the author believes that we contribute toward the creation of every condition in our lives, good or bad, with our thinking, feeling pattern. She believes in taking responsibility.
However, as mentioned in her book, blame and responsibility are different. Blame is about giving away one’s power while responsibility gives us the power to make changes in our lives. And we all have the power within us.
If you want to let go of your hidden resentment and regain the power within you, this is the book for you. It will help you take charge of your life.
Alternatively, you can read The Essential Louise Hay Collection, you can find the first three books in the list as a single volume.
4. Mirror Work
“Love is the most powerful healing force there is. You can take this love out into the world and silently share it with everyone you meet.”

Carrie is an author of Unapologetically Enough: Reshaping Success & Self-Love and the Chief Executive Officer of the Unapologetic Voice House, a hybrid book publishing business. Carrie has created several successful businesses, always putting her career first in search of external validation.

When she turned 35, she surrendered to burnout and had to take a good, long look at her life as a single woman without her own children. She wrote Unapologetically Enough about her journey.

All her rejection letters from literary agents compared her work to well-known authors. But because she didn’t have a big enough platform, agents always passed on her.
