Sex, Death & the Body as Temple: Somatic Witchcraft with Melissa Gutierrez
Send us a textWhen the veil thins, the body becomes the first altar. In this candid, unfiltered conversation, somatic coach, witch, and trauma-informed Domme Melissa Gutierrez joins Leandra and Elyse to demystify somatics and show how movement reshapes mind, emotions, and (yes) magick. We explore the twin currents of sex magick and death work—how they naturally braid together in healing, grief, and rebirth—and why ethical containers, consent, and nervous-system literacy matter for real transformation.Melissa shares her cultural roots, what “sensation integration” looks like in practice, and how to work with triggers as teachers. We talk science-meets-mysticism, reclaiming the hips and voice from shame, adult agency in the body, and why community mirrors are essential for growth. If you’ve ever wondered how to actually feel energy, hold a vision through arousal, or approach spirit and ancestors without fear, this episode is your map.🔮 CLICK HERE Take Leandra's Witch Archetype Quiz: https://leandrawitchwood.kartra.com/survey/PW3GxZaS2Aa4 🗝️ 🕯️CLICK HERE for Elyse's free Guide to Energy Protection. 🌟🧙♀️ Follow Elyse @seekingnumina, & join Seekers of the Sacred Wild, a free group with weekly live lessons and readings.

Send us a textThis time we’re really in the kitchen. Leandra Witchwood and Elyse Welles invite you into a cozy, hands-on “Kitchen Witch’s Hearth” session to make quick pickled red onions two ways—while weaving intention, protection, and cleansing into every step. From knife skills and jar-charging to stirring deosil and widdershins, you’ll hear how intuitive cooking becomes spellcraft, why onions and garlic are powerhouse allies, and how ingredients like vinegar, caraway, and even a lemon-and-salt ward can support energetic hygiene. It’s tactile, candid, a little teary (thanks, onions), and full of practical witchery you can taste. If you love hearth magick, seasonal pantry projects, and turning everyday food into living ritual, this one’s for you.Video coming soon!🔮 CLICK HERE Take Leandra's Witch Archetype Quiz: https://leandrawitchwood.kartra.com/survey/PW3GxZaS2Aa4 🗝️ 🕯️CLICK HERE for Elyse's free Guide to Energy Protection. 🌟🧙♀️ Follow Elyse @seekingnumina, & join Seekers of the Sacred Wild, a free group with weekly live lessons and readings.

Send us a textJoin hosts Leandra Witchwood and Elyse Welles in this special “Kitchen Witch’s Hearth” episode, where they take listeners straight into the heart of their craft — the kitchen. This cozy cooking session celebrates the magic of everyday ingredients. As they prepare a simple apple crisp with plums and oats, the witches discuss why using up seasonal produce is an act of gratitude to the land. They reveal the pentagram hidden inside a cross-cut apple and explain how this five-pointed star connects to the five elements. Each spice carries meaning: cinnamon brings action, healing and prosperity; nutmeg is associated with luck, money and fidelity; and cloves offer protection and purification. The hosts also talk about the prosperity and grounding energy of oats, and share knife-skills tips, kitchen rituals and personal stories.Listeners who enjoy fall recipes, kitchen witchcraft, magickal herbalism or hearth-witch traditions will find inspiration and practical wisdom in this episode. The video version is not yet released, but will be shared soon.🔮 CLICK HERE Take Leandra's Witch Archetype Quiz: https://leandrawitchwood.kartra.com/survey/PW3GxZaS2Aa4 🗝️ 🕯️CLICK HERE for Elyse's free Guide to Energy Protection. 🌟🧙♀️ Follow Elyse @seekingnumina, & join Seekers of the Sacred Wild, a free group with weekly live lessons and readings.
