  • The Treasure House Within You: Why Most People Search Outside for What Lives Within.
    Jun 11 2026

    Get the New Ashla Episode Guide and follow along with the show!


    In this episode of The New Ashla Podcast, Justin V. Gates and Michael Perry explore why so many people spend their lives searching outside themselves for peace, power, healing, validation, guidance, and identity, only to find that the emptiness eventually returns.

    Drawing from the idea of the “treasure house within”, this conversation examines how the deeper mind can become a bridge to wisdom, healing, creativity, intuition, and transformation. Through the teachings of Ashla, Justin frames this inner treasure as the Light within, the sacred current already present beneath fear, noise, old programming, and false identity.

    The episode explores why people look outward for what must first be awakened inwardly, how old impressions and limiting beliefs can make us feel powerless, and how spiritual practice, awareness, contemplation, affirmation, and right action help us cultivate the deeper self.

    At its heart, this episode is a reminder that you are not empty, broken, or powerless. The Light has not abandoned you. The treasure is not missing. You may simply have been searching in the wrong direction.

  • Somatic Healing and the Wisdom of the Body
    Jun 9 2026

    Episode Guide

    Description

    In this episode of the New Ashla Podcast, Michael Perry and Justin Gates explore somatic healing, nervous system release, and why understanding your pain intellectually does not always mean your body has fully let it go.

    You can read the books, go to therapy, name the wound, and understand exactly where your patterns came from, and still feel stuck in the same reactions.

    That does not mean you failed at healing.

    It may mean your body is still holding what your mind has already processed.

    In this episode, Michael and Justin dive into somatic healing and the role the body plays in trauma, chronic stress, emotional suppression, and nervous system regulation. They explore why unresolved experiences can live as tension, hypervigilance, numbness, emotional volatility, exhaustion, and automatic reactions long after the original event is over.

    This conversation is not about forcing an extreme emotional release. It is about learning how to come back into relationship with the body through breath, awareness, movement, honesty, and compassionate presence.

    Because healing is not only something we understand.

    It is something we integrate.

    • Somatic healing is about working with the body, not bypassing it.
    • Insight is important, but insight alone does not always create release.
    • The nervous system can hold unresolved stress as tension, posture, hypervigilance, numbness, or automatic reactions.
    • Your body is not resisting healing. It may be waiting to feel safe enough to complete what was never completed.
    • Emotional suppression can disconnect us from what the body is trying to reveal.
    • Movement, breath, sound, exercise, and mindful awareness can become healthy outlets for stored energy.
    • Somatic work does not have to be extreme to be powerful.
    • The body is not separate from the spiritual path. It is part of the whole being.
    • Healing asks us to bring compassion, patience, and awareness to the places we have neglected.
    • The goal is not to shame the body, fix the body, or overpower the body. The goal is to come home to it.
    1. My body is not my enemy. It is trying to communicate with me.
    2. I can listen to my body with patience instead of shame.
    3. I do not have to force healing. I can create safety for it.
    4. What I feel in my body deserves compassion and attention.
    5. I am learning to release what I no longer need to carry.
    1. Where does stress, fear, grief, or anger tend to show up in my body?
    2. What emotions have I learned to minimize, suppress, or explain away instead of fully feeling?
    3. What would it look like to treat my body as a partner in healing instead of something I need to overcome?
    • Gabor Maté and his work on emotional suppression, chronic stress, and the body-mind connection.
    • The broader idea behind The Body Keeps the Score, especially the way trauma and stress can live in the nervous system and body.

  • Guarding the Inner Temple: Protecting Your Mind from Fear, Noise, and False Impressions
    Jun 4 2026

    In this episode of The New Ashla Podcast, Justin V. Gates and Michael Perry explore what it means to guard the inner temple of the mind.

    Every day, thoughts, fears, memories, media, opinions, and old wounds try to enter the deeper mind. Over time, what we repeatedly accept begins to shape our emotions, beliefs, behavior, and identity. Drawing from the idea of the conscious mind as the “watchman at the gate,” this conversation explores how to protect the subconscious from false impressions without becoming fearful, closed off, or disconnected from life.

    Through the teachings of Ashla, Justin frames the mind as sacred ground. The Luminari must learn to guard that temple with awareness, discernment, truth, and Light. Not every thought deserves agreement. Not every fear deserves authority. Not every voice deserves residence within you.

    This episode dives into how suggestions become seeds, how fear-based messaging shapes the inner world, why discernment is different from paranoia, and how spiritual practice, affirmations, and right action can impress the deeper mind with truth instead of fear.

    At its heart, this episode is about reclaiming authority over your inner world.

    Guard the gate.
    Examine what enters.
    Cultivate what is true.
    And fill the inner temple with what is worthy of becoming you.
