Bodhisattva Conversations with...

 In this episode of Navigating Change, host Julia Chi and guest Anadi James dive deep into the world of change and uncertainty. They explore how the only true certainty in life is found in the stillness within, and discuss how this perspective has shaped their own journeys. Through personal stories and reflections, they share how embracing stillness helped them navigate some of their most challenging moments, offering listeners a roadmap to find peace amidst chaos. Tune in for insights on how to stay grounded when everything around you seems in flux. 

In this podcast, Julia and Anadi explore further the idea : 'If it doesn't challenge you, it won't change you' ...They discuss whether in being outside our comfort zone, we can discover inner strengths and attain skills we didn't know we were capable of.Julia and Anadi also investigate resilience and explore how this aspect can be developed to enable us to discover and enjoy new experiences, and suggest that without resilience we may never have 'follow through' and so gain the benefits the challenges, and being 'outside our comfort zone' might bring.

This is part 1 of a dialogue of exploration between Julia and Anadi about the idea that 'If it doesn't challenge you, it won't change you...'In this podcast Anadi and Julia explore the concepts of challenge and change, and whether we need to do either?They discuss investigating our own personal paradigm - our own map of how we see the world - to discover what is right for us and whether our beliefs and ideas are truly our own.They explore the idea of being out of our comfort zone and whether this is necessary for growth...Next week, they will continue the conversation...

In this podcast Julia and Anadi engage in a dialogue of exploration about 'Relationship as a mirror'...They talk about how the closer the relationship is the closer the mirror is for us to see ourselves reflected back - it can become a magnifying glass!And often when what we see, we don't like, we 'project' the un wanted  or unknown or unseen aspects of ourself onto the other...Anything that we do not know about ourselves is in the shadows; and anything that is hidden or lost or we deny in ourselves is in the shadow - 'stuff' in the shadows has the potential to hurt us - as it will keep appearing in our relating!In the podcast Anadi and Julia explore this and also talk about how to discover, work with and so transform what is lying is in the shadows...And - the person who wrote about the four questions was Byron KatieIs it true?Is it really true?What would I be like without that thought?What if I turned it around?

In this podcast, Julia talks about how all relationships exist in 'the space between' us,and how we can make a difference to the quality of the relating by being mindful of what we put into that space...What we say and do can heal or hurt the space, create harmony or conflict...

In this podcast Julia and Anadi explore intentional dialogue in more depth, and talk about how it is the bedrock of being present in  every moment in every interaction.Through a commitment to take responsibility for ourselves and our reactivities, we can play our part in keeping 'the space between' - where all relating exists - safe and harmonious and expansive.

'To thine own self be true', but who is our true self, how do we know, and even if we do how do we live our lives true to ourselves, especially if it goes against family or societal expectations...In this podcast, Anadi and Julia explore this, covering areas such as how much we are influenced by our conditioning that we may be living by default having lost the ability to hear our own true inner voice...And how to begin to listen again...

In this podcast Julia and Anadi explore how to be aware of creating our lives consciously.90 - 95% of all we do is coming from the subconscious mind... Julia and Anadi explore how the routines before sleep and upon waking help with clearing throughout the day and maintaining presence to create  from a place of stillness, free of unconscious patterns and programmes 

In this podcast Julia and Anadi talk about systemic therapy and social construction and how this can help people understand themselves better, and see the wider picture in terms of how they define themselves in their families, friendship groups and in society as a whole.By asking questions that are circular rather than linear it is possible to open the view of difficult situations and discover that solutions can be found - and the possibility of a brighter future where problems have previously seemed unresolvable and stuck.But as always we return to the core of it all, our own responsibility to be the change we want to see!

In this podcast, Julia Chi and Anadi James have a conversation about Consciously relating and what this means and looks like...This is a definition of Conscious relationship:'Conscious Relating involves becoming aware of how the imprints of your past experiences inform your current relationship patterns, learning tools to relate consciously from a place of safety and trust, and embracing challenges as doorways to inner growth and transformation'.Julia and Anadi met in 2012 and have been in a Conscious relationship ever since...

In this podcast Julia  has a conversation with her husband Anadi about being conscious in relating, with the bedrock of this being Intentional Dialogue.Intentional Dialogue which was created by Harville Hendrix and Helen Hunt to help couple relate consciously.Intentional dialogue keeps the space clean and clear between anyone in a conversationWe often don't realise how little we are listening to our partner, children, friends or colleagues but are listening instead to our own internal response. We need to fully hear the message a person is sending so that they will feel deeply heard. The realisation that you accurately understand someone is wonderful for them and a growth experience for you, even if you do not agree with them! One of the most effective forms of healing communication between persons in any intimate relationship, or in fact in any relationship is the intentional dialogue.It consists of three steps: mirroring, validation, and empathy.Practicing these steps will feel awkward at first as well as difficult. But as you practice, the lines between each step slowly dissolve and you move from practicing dialogical to it becoming a natural way of communicating. Dialogue helps us understand the unique inner world of the person you are in dialogue with. We learn to see how their world works for them and so create and maintain connection, rather than misunderstanding each other or in conflict.
