Simon Heller, a certified Sexological Bodyworker and Somatic Sex Educator, joins Simon Transparently to guide listeners through a transformative journey of reconnecting with their bodies, honoring their desires, and embracing self-love in its fullest expression—not just as a practice of the mind and soul but also the body.
Episode 1: The Foundation of Sexological Bodywork
In the first episode, Simon and Simon lay the groundwork for the entire series by introducing the fundamentals of sexological bodywork, often referred to as bodywork or somatic bodywork. They share how they came to this profound practice and explain what sexological bodywork truly is. If you're curious about self-love, embodied sexuality, or simply want to better understand your two hosts and their passionate work, this is the perfect episode to start with. Before diving deeper into more specific topics in the upcoming episodes.
Each episode in this mini-series will delve into different aspects of sexological bodywork, a holistic approach to sexuality that nurtures a deep connection between body, mind, and spirit. Whether you're new to the concept or seeking a deeper understanding, this series will provide insightful perspectives and practical wisdom from both co-hosts as they share their personal experiences and professional expertise in this unique field.
Stay tuned for upcoming episodes where Simon and Simon explore various dimensions of sexological bodywork, offering fresh insights and a deeper dive into each topic. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or just curious about body-based self-love, this mini-series is designed to inspire, educate, and transform your relationship with yourself and your body.* Foundations of Sexological Bodywork summarised:The foundations of Sexological Bodywork are centered on sexual healing, education, mindful self loving, and body awareness through client-led, therapeutic touch. This modality integrates breathwork, movement, sound, and guided touch to help individuals connect with their bodies and sexuality in a safe, consent-based environment. Sessions focus on areas such as exploring pleasure, releasing trauma, and addressing sexual dysfunction, while incorporating sex education and the anatomy of pleasure. Practitioners remain clothed, and all touch is one-way, creating a professional and respectful space for healing and growth. Each session is shaped by the client's needs and goals, ensuring a personalized experience that supports sexual well-being.
Client-Led and Therapeutic: Sexological Bodywork is driven by the client's needs, focusing on sexual healing, body awareness, and resolving trauma in a safe, structured environment.
One-Way Touch, Clear Boundaries: All touch is one-way, with the practitioner fully clothed, ensuring a professional, respectful space for growth.
Educational Focus: It incorporates sexual education and the anatomy of pleasure, helping clients explore communication, boundaries, and consent.
Distinct from Tantra Massage: While Tantra massage focusing on sexual energy and spirituality, sexological bodywork works with sexual energy and focuses on clients needs, education, healing, and a trauma-informed approach.

Nivek #45 | There Is Nothing Wrong With You.
Thursday Jul 11, 2024
Thursday Jul 11, 2024
We Long For Love Yet We Are Terrified Of It. Dissecting Reality & All Presumptive Realities. Question Everything. Presume Nothing. We Are Divine Beings. There Is Nothing Wrong With You. How much am I looking at myself and functioning from a presumptive reality or preconditioned state? Why do I still perceive there is something wrong with me? In this transformative conversation, Nivek and I tackle one of the deepest false beliefs society has ingrained in us: the idea that we are not enough. From an early age, we’re conditioned—especially by capitalist systems—to believe we need constant improvement, always chasing something more. But the truth is, we are already magnificent, divine beings. There is nothing wrong with us.
Recorded after six immersive days together, this episode offers a fresh lens to view reality—exploring concepts like Access Consciousness; a set of tools and techniques that help clear mental, emotional, and energetic blocks, fostering greater awareness, false belief systems, and even the stories we tell ourselves about money and war.
We unravel the mental constructs around love, worthiness, money, and societal conditioning that keep us stuck. Nivek, a *misfit and unpredictable genius*, shares from his life experience and offers powerful insights into how we can break free from these limiting beliefs and reconnect with our inherent divinity.
The self-development industry, built largely on the belief that we are not enough, was valued at over **$40 billion globally** in 2021. By 2030, it's projected to grow to **$67 billion**—proving how deeply rooted this narrative is in society. But through this episode, we’re challenging that notion and offering new ways to reconnect with who we truly are.
Ready to let go of the idea that you need to be “fixed”? Kevin (Nivek): Biohacker; described as a…Misfit, Unpredictable and Genius.Since a young age he knew that there must be more to life than the concepts and drama that this reality is structured upon. His innate sense of wonder and rebellion lead him through a meandering path of self rediscovery. The past 15 years he has been facilitating Sound & other modalities, in a particular framing that has unfolded through his own experiences of healing and restoration. Having assisted and studied in entheogen’s, meditation, self inquiry shamanism and countless other modalities and practices, he currently focuses on facilitating a simple, effective Sound Journey that can bring spaciousness and lightness from which the healing can be initiated.

Together, Simon and Bridget explore the facets of self-love, discussing what it means to them and how it has shaped their lives. Their conversation is a beautiful blend of wisdom, warmth, and joy, offering listeners both inspiration and practical insights into the profound journey of self-acceptance and love.

SELF LOVE NOW is the title of the book Simon curated with 54 friends answering the same question; Why is Self-Love important?
During a ‘Sharing Circle’ Simon invited a spontaneous question; “Why is Self Love so important today?”. He was profoundly moved by the answers of those in the circle, so much so that over time that movement continued to birth an idea of a book of diversely selected co-creators expressing their individual answers to the same broad and important universal question.

Yasmin Degiorgio #43 | Embracing the Cosmic Mother & Honouring the Cycles of Life
Wednesday Nov 22, 2023
Wednesday Nov 22, 2023
The Critical Need For Both Female & Male-bodied Beings To Step Into A More Empowered State Of being & Honor The Wisdom Of The Cosmic Mother.Welcome to another enriching episode of the Simon Transparently Podcast, where we dive deep into an inquiry with my beautiful friend, Yasmin DiGiorgio. Set against the serene backdrop of a hilltop in Sicily under the majestic Grandmother Tree, we explore the profound theme of the empowerment of women and the female aspect of our being.
Our conversation delves into the essence of the divine feminine and the importance of bringing balance and harmony to the polarities of yin and yang, masculine and feminine. We discuss the critical need for both female and male-bodied beings to step into a more empowered state of being and honor the wisdom of the Cosmic Mother.
We navigate through the challenges and realizations of our spiritual paths, the significance of our connection to the creative force that birthed all life, and the need for inner harmony reflective in our outer world. Yasmin shares her insights from the book "The Cosmic Mother: Rediscovering the Religion of the Earth," tracing human culture's deep roots in worshipping the Cosmic Mother and living in harmony with nature's cycles.
Our dialogue touches on the societal disconnection from these cycles, the undervaluing of the feminine, and the need for collective grief and healing. We explore the role of men in supporting and protecting the feminine, the importance of listening to the wisdom of the menstrual cycle, and the transformative power of circles in maintaining the rhythm of our communities.
Join us in this thought-provoking and heartfelt conversation as we seek to reconnect with the Cosmic Mother, honor the cycles of life, and create circles of trust and wisdom. Let’s keep this inquiry alive and weave it into our daily lives, fostering a deeper understanding and reverence for the divine feminine within and around us.

Have You Lost Your Connection To Divine Spirit? We are at an end game politically, psychologically, economically, religiously, monetarily, with no exit.

Catching up with Dar Pan for a power hour of insights from his epic three month pigrimage across Nepal, Bhutan, India, as he shares his homecoming with his dear friend and mentor Choeze Kuchen Rinpoche.

Craig Mc Gregor #41 | Reframing The Taboo Of Money Into Medicine

Saturday Jun 17, 2023
Money Is My Medicine. Are You Ready To Look At Your Relationship To Money? My Concept Of Money Completely Changed When I Made Millions. Money Didnt Make Me Happy Because I Had No Purpose. "Having money without purpose is not wealth. Wealth is money in alignment with purpose. Doesn't matter how much it is. Wealth comes from the soil from the soul. And purpose without money is also not wealth."

"The Wheel Of Money is a framework that aims to support you to understand deeper your relationship to money, different ways of relating to money, different energetics that exist, different polarities, and also to look at the consensual healthy relationships that we can have to money as well as the shadow elements" ~ The Wheel Of Money"Evolution Of Us vision is to build a community of conscious leaders, and empower them to grow potent businesses, to accelerate the alignment of humanity's purpose & progress. We believe that entrepreneurs are shaping the future of humanity as leaders and the agents of change in the world.

Tiger Singelton #40 | Being Human Is An Epic Adventure

Tuesday Jun 13, 2023
Its All Being Held Together With LOVE. Get Out Of Your Own Way. Do You Want Depth or Illusion? This podcast was an epic opportunity to be held in love by Tiger. By being in Tigers presence I was able to drink from the depths of trust and feel and heal aspects of myself which were holding on through fear. "All adventure is a Journey into the unknown. We have a craving for safety that avoids the adventure. We try so hard to find the safety. Are you willing to stop chasing the illusions of an insane world, and come back to the heart of Life, the heart of what you really are?" As humans, we all have a tendency to view ourselves and the world through a lens of fear and emotional distortion. This lens creates imaginary monsters that tell us it's not safe to be ourselves, enjoy life, or love. "I help people connect with a deeper reality beyond the mind and rooted in their heart, so they can experience a more grounded, peaceful, and playful life." More from Tiger TigMonk Inlight Connect is an online platform created to help individuals understand and transcend the misunderstandings around suffering.

I Realised I Need To Do The Inner Work. I Have Way More Authentic Connections Being Off Social Media. Self Love Leads To Sovereignty. If you use social media, but don’t have a healthy liberated relationship with it, then you haven’t “escaped the matrix”, you’re deep in it. "Social media is becoming a digital ghetto, full of content addicts, validation seekers, dopamine junkies, attention whores, doom merchants and false idols. A toxic microcosm, with a culture of “free”, and the ability to manipulate, overwhelm and distract you. A digital slave system where your energy and attention is the product." "What you focus your energy on, literally shapes your experience. Social media is not the only way to create things in the world. We have just been conditioned to think it's abnormal to not be on it. I'm not here to fight the things I don't like in this world, I'm here to show a new way." Social media is not wrong or bad. It's like anything in the world we may be addicted to, what extent is it controlling us? What is it holding us back from? * Social Media Liberation: A FREE 40 minute masterclass for anyone who's in a toxic relationship with social media, and wants to learn how to liberate themselves from the grips of digital slavery.Laura helps awakening men and women connect to their deeper self and become their greatest self, so they can live a life they love and make a difference in the world.

You Reap What You Sow. Accepting What Is Can Welcome The Infinite Potentials. What We Think Is What We Are Creating. My Life Is A Conundrum. Enjoy this conversation and life story from addiction, inner transformation, to the evolution of Ai. We are the conscious creators of what is.

An outcast who has tried to fit in the boxes that just couldn't be fit into. When I asked him what we could name this podcast, he replied, disruption. "Explore the limitless possibilities within the dark abyss, where dreams take flight and bloom!
