Millennias ago, the world's first-recorded priestesses served as the vessel and voice of the Goddess for powerful kings and empires across Mesopotamia, Anatolia and the Levant. My guest this week, Lisa Moriah, is a Mesopotamian and Biblical goddess wisdom keeper, shamanic priestess, somatic sound healer, and temple sales & marketing coach. Her work supports ancient-future devotion that is steeped in text and history, bridging the millennias between the earliest-recorded priestesses and modern women. Lisa believes your body and voice are portals to ancient power and she shares this wisdom and more in this episode.
On this guest episode, I ask Lisa to explain how sound is the most feminine of all healing modalities, what is “somatic sound?” and how women use this to perform self-healing for trauma. She shares about how she uses some very ancient technologies for sound healing, based in Abrahamic religious tradition and finding Goddess in Abrahamic religious tradition. I ask how she came to specialize in transmitting the presence of Goddess in sacred texts and where does Goddess reclamation work intersect with sound. Lisa is creating a safe harbor for Women who are ready to reclaim the Goddess within free from standard religion, a beautiful offering and fascinating work!
BIO:
Lisa Moriah is a Mesopotamian and Biblical goddess wisdom keeper, shamanic priestess, somatic sound healer, and temple sales & marketing coach. Her work supports ancient-future devotion that is steeped in text and history, bridging the millennias between the earliest-recorded priestesses and modern women. She loves nothing more than amplifying the wisdom of ancient feminine voices for audiences today. Sound is Lisa Moriah’s primary healing tool—including voice, rhythm, early temple instruments, and Eastern musical modes called makams. By reviving the path of the En priestesses of Sumer, and the Qadosha priestesses of the Israelite temple, she helps women re-member the goddess heritage that birthed their Abrahamic faith of origin. Practically, this work also activates authentic voice and dissolves inner blocks—so feminine creativity and leadership can flow unhindered. Lisa Moriah's ritual and transformational work is underpinned by seven years of goddess devotion and ritual, ten years of online business, and twenty years of professional writing.
