Sacred Six: The Rituals & Practices Helping Me Heal From Burnout
At the end of 2023, I hit a wall. Anxiety and burnout forced me to slow down and rebuild (you can hear more in earlier episodes). Out of that experience came Beautiful Inside — a space for honest conversations about mental health, healing, and redefining beauty as something that starts within.In this solo episode, I share my current Sacred Six — the six rituals and mindset shifts helping me heal, reset, and find balance.1. Creating a Sacred SpaceIt includes my:• Infraredi red light: here’s my discount code. Here’s the article about it • Dyson Supersonic R• My 5 Minute Journal • My Pulsetto device: here's another discount code '• Fragrances by The Ayu and Shemana, candles, incense, crystals, prayer beads, and a photo of my grandmother • Tools like my De La Heart lymphatic tool and Lonvitalite dermarollerThe space itself, with a Viola marble benchtop from Allambie Marble Crafts and VJ panels, feels beautiful and intentional. It reminds me daily of the power of ritual and environment in healing.2. Energy Healing: The Spiral Soul Healing with KellieI recently completed an 8-week Spiral with SoulHealingKellie. Her own story of trauma and transformation inspired me to dive in, and the process combined emotional clearing, EFT, and inner child work.What it gave me: • More openness, less procrastination • Courage to take action • Cleared blocks around goal-setting and asking for what I want • Freedom to dream bigger without fearIt taught me one vital lesson: get out of your own way.3. Spinal Energetics with Dr Sarah JaneDr Sarah Jane created Spinal Energetics™, blending chiropractic, psychology, and energy work. In my session, she “read” my pain with uncanny accuracy — at one point, my arm felt on fire. Though my neck pain is ongoing, I saw how physical and emotional healing mirror one another.4. Breath & Sound Healing with Tanya AlijaniThrough her Soulchemy method, Tanya combines breathwork and sound frequencies that shift the body into deep relaxation. My intention was to release parenting anxiety — I left feeling lighter, calmer, transformed.5. Yin Yoga at Modern MovementYin has become my Sunday reset. At Modern Movement, teachers Tim and Rose create a spiritual, still space that balances out the intensity of other practices.6. Mindset Shifts with Mel RobbinsMel Robbins’ Let Them philosophy and 5 Second Rule gave me structure and motivation. They helped me clarify my fitness goals — weights, running, swimming — and reminded me that movement is medicine for body, mind, and soul.And if you love this episode, stay tuned — I’ll be sharing even more rituals, products, and practices in my upcoming Sacred Sixty Selfcare and Wellness Guide.This season of Beautiful Inside is proudly brought to you by Blue Haven Pools.We’ve partnered with Blue Haven to bring our dream pool to life—a custom concrete plunge pool designed to flow seamlessly from our kitchen and dining area, complete with magnesium mineral water, pale Onix mosaic tiles, and white limestone pavers for that Mediterranean feel.Blue Haven has spent over 50 years building beautiful, functional pools, offering everything from fully customised designs to world-first online pool packages for standard blocks.Visit bluehaven.com.au to explore what’s possible—and stay tuned for our Pool Diaries mini-series at the end of this episode.Rate and review on iTunes Follow Sigourney on Instagram, Youtube and TikTok: Follow Beauticate on Instagram: and Facebook
