Podcasts about Appreciation

Discover all of the podcasts in our network, search for specific episodes, get the Optimal Living Daily workbook, and learn more at: OLDPodcast.com. Episode 3847: David Cain explores how genuine gratitude doesn't come from intellectual reflection but from tuning into the sensory details of everyday life. By focusing on the small, beautiful, and often unnoticed experiences unfolding in the present moment, we can tap into a deeper and more spontaneous form of appreciation, one that enriches even the most ordinary days. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://www.raptitude.com/218/2/gratitude-noticing/ Quotes to ponder: "Gratitude, when we do genuinely feel it, arises from experiences we are currently having, not from evaluating our lives in our heads." "Look for your good fortune not in some abstract assessment of your life situation, but in your experience right in this moment." "You'll appreciate so much more of every day, even bad days, when you look for the small pleasures of present moment experience instead." Learn more about your ad choices.

 What started as a walk to urgent care ended with the words, ‘you're having a heart attack,' and a truth I never saw coming. An angiogram gone silent, and five blocked arteries that shouldn't have let me stand. Then the doctor's words about my eventual fate - “that was going to be you” - became the line that split my life in two. That surgery didn't just save me. It became the compass I've followed ever since.In this episode, I talk about what changed after that day: eating with intention, moving with purpose, and communicating without yelling, gaslighting, or going to emotional war. That shift carried into fatherhood too. I stopped worrying about who my son might become and started appreciating the boy right in front of me.There's also the peace part and the ongoing lessons that continue to this day. The boundaries I drew, the twisted people I sent to the “cornfield,” and the stress I finally stopped confusing with responsibility. This is a conversation about survival, yes, but more than that, it's about design. How you design your days, your circle, and your energy when you realize you don't get unlimited minutes.It's Here!

It is also a poignant podcast as we pay tribute to the passing of one of both our friends Denis Durnian who was a terrific player on the European Tour and still holds jointly the incredible record of the lowest 9 hole score in ANY major when he shot an incredible 28 on the front 9 at Royal Birkdale in the 1983 Open He was one of the last of a unique golfer who managed to combine being a club pro with a successful career on the European Tour. With our conversation we hark back to a different time of golf but a wonderful time nevertheless. Andrew played many times with the great Severiano Ballesteros and he shares with us some wonderful stories about the charisma and genius of the late great and sadly missed Spanish player. The great Sandy Lyle and why he should have been Ryder Cup captain The evolution of golf coaching on the European Tour, the early days of star coaches such as David Leadbetter and Bob Torrance How coaching worked very successfully for some players but a disaster for others In our discussion we reinforced the need for Gratitude and Appreciation as a cornerstone of a golfing philosophy The very sad loss of Denis Durnian only reinforces how precious each round of golf actually is.

Episode #401 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan and Bedroth travel back to the formative years of home computer gaming to celebrate the groundbreaking work of Martin Galway, one of the true architects of early video game music. Best known for pushing the Commodore 64's SID chip far beyond its perceived limits, Galway helped define the sound of an entire era with unforgettable compositions. Long before lush orchestras and expansive sound libraries, Galway was composing bold, expressive, and technically daring music under extreme hardware constraints, creating tracks that still shine with personality and ambition decades later. This Composer Appreciation honors a pioneer whose fearless experimentation and melodic instincts laid crucial groundwork for everything video game music would eventually become, and whose influence can still be felt in chiptune and retro-inspired scores today. Email the show at bgmaniapodcast@gmail.com with requests for upcoming episodes, questions, feedback, comments, concerns, or any other thoughts you'd like to share! Special thanks to our Executive Producers: Jexak, Xancu, Jeff & Mike.

IAAPA Expo is often described as the “most wonderful time of the year” for attractions professionals, but it can also be overwhelming: long days, packed schedules, and endless conversations. By unpacking the expo, Matt and Josh share how they turned the week into a soul-filling, business-building experience through people, intentional design, and investing in the next generation. In this episode, Matt and Josh talk about how to turn IAAPA Expo into the most meaningful and memorable week of your professional year. People, Meetups, and Becoming the “Elder Statesman” “This was such a huge ‘people' experience for me.” Matt's first big takeaway is simple: people. From the AttractionPros Meetup until leaving Epic Universe on Thursday night, he was in constant conversation, reconnecting with long-time colleagues, and supporting first-time speakers. Matt also talks about his evolving role as a kind of “elder statesman,” helping newer professionals, making the event as much about lifting others up as about his own experience. Booths as Mini Attractions “An expo booth should operate like a mini attraction.” Josh shared how he treated his exhibit booth as a mini attraction. With two interns, they focused on fundamentals of guest service. Details mattered: enhanced carpet padding that felt like “walking on a cloud,” comfortable lounge-style furniture, and a coffee station with branded cups and carefully placed lids so the logo was always visible. Inclusion Beyond Accessibility “Inclusion is not the same as accessibility.” Matt highlights a powerful session on inclusion led by Sharon Newhardt and Enzo Piscopo of Morgan's Wonderland. Enzo, presenting from a wheelchair on a stage accessible by a newly installed lift, shared how physical accessibility does not automatically equal inclusion. He explained that while ramps and designated seating may check compliance boxes, they can still leave guests and employees feeling excluded such as never being able to choose a seat behind home plate or in a dream location at a ballpark. When IAAPA Expo Really Is a Family Reunion “You never know who you're related to at the Expo.” Josh shares a story that turns the “family reunion” metaphor into reality. In the middle of a packed Tuesday, he receives a text from his mom: “We have a cousin exhibiting at IAAPA.” The next day, Josh finally met his second cousin once removed — someone who has been in the industry longer than he has, working on the chemistry behind skin for animatronics. They realize they've likely been in the same building at the same time for years without knowing it. Quick Hits: Energy, Words, Appreciation, Rest, and Instagrammable Workplaces “Sleep and rest are not the same thing.” Matt runs through a series of “quick hits” that left a mark on him. From the Women in the Industry Luncheon, he shares Lauren Hodges's concept of managing energy, not just time, reframing mindset language, demonstrating a deeper sense of appreciation, and differentiating sleep from rest. Finally, seeing IAAPA staff proudly taking selfies in their own event space prompts the question: is your workplace Instagrammable for your team? The Intangible Value of IAAPA “The overall value of IAAPA Expo is intangible and sometimes is not even realized until much later in the future.” While you can quantify tickets, sessions, and receptions, the real value of the week for Josh's interns came from introductions, mentorship, and compounding opportunities. Josh intentionally introduced them to every person who came to the booth, encouraged them to talk about their own career goals, and encouraged them to attend separately-ticketed events. By midweek, they had lost count of how many executives they'd met. While organizations often focus on hard ROI, it is the personal growth, expanded networks, and renewed passion that attendees bring back are equally valuable, even if they're harder to measure.   What were your biggest takeaways from IAAPA Expo? How are you turning your booth, sessions, or workplace into memorable experiences? What are you doing to make your operation more inclusive, people-centric, and soul-filling?

For years, we were told that the secret to spiritual awakening was simple: stay positive, think high-vibe thoughts, avoid negativity, and manifest harder. But what if that entire framework is backwards? What if the real catalyst for consciousness expansion isn't escaping low vibration...but using it? In this solo episode, Will cracks open the myth of “high vibes only” and exposes why so many seekers feel stuck, frustrated, or inconsistent in their manifestation progress. Drawing from a raw, paradigm-shifting conversation with spiritual teacher David Strickel, this episode reframes low vibration—not as failure, but as the entry point to real transformation. If you've been trying to “stay positive” your way out of discomfort, suppress your shadow, or force your way into alignment, what you'll hear today may just save you years of spiritual wheel-spinning.What You'll Learn in This Episode • Why ‘High Vibes Only' Actually Blocks Spiritual Growth Will breaks down how bypassing your shadow stalls true spiritual awakening and stops manifestation at the root. • The Spiral, Not the Ladder Your awakening doesn't ascend in a straight line. It winds up, down, and inward. Understanding this model can instantly remove years of self-judgment. • The Hidden Beliefs That Sabotage Manifestation Most people don't manifest because they're sending a signal of need, not alignment. Will exposes how fear masquerades as desire, and shuts the door on abundance. • Detuning vs Letting Go David Strickel's groundbreaking concept of detuning shows you how to dissolve emotional charge without bypassing, sugarcoating, or faking forgiveness. • Why Low Vibration Is Not a Problem—It's a Message Fear, grief, anger, anxiety...these aren't spiritual failures. They're invitations to examine the subconscious patterns shaping your reality.The Three-Step Framework for Real Integration A grounded, practical method to use immediately...no woo-only fluff, no 90-day shadow-bootcamps necessary:Recognize When You're “Down the Spiral” Stop mislabeling discomfort as failure; start seeing it as a signal.Go Into the Basement Your subconscious has boxes you've never opened. Will guides you through how to begin...safely, intentionally, and without overwhelm.Detune Through Appreciation Not toxic positivity. Not forced affirmations. Appreciation is the only emotional state that dissolves resistance without repression.Why This Episode Matters Right Now Spiritual seekers are burned out on polished, performative modern spirituality that denies half the human experience. This episode offers a grounded alternative, one rooted in intuition development, emotional honesty, and the true mechanics behind manifestation. If you've ever wondered:Why does my shadow keep resurfacing?Why does manifestation work one week and collapse the next?Why do positive thoughts feel like a band-aid instead of transformation?Why do I feel worse the more I try to “stay high vibe”?…then what Will shares here will land like a breakthrough.Perfect For Listeners Interested In:Spiritual AwakeningManifestation (minus the clichés)Intuition DevelopmentEnergy Healing & Emotional RegulationShadow Work that Actually WorksSoul Purpose & Consciousness ExplorationModern Spirituality Without BypassingLife After Death Concepts & Higher Perspective ThinkingNear-Death Experience-inspired frameworksSpirit Guides & Inner Dialogue with the ShadowsIf This Episode Hit Hard… Share it with someone who's tired of performative positivity and ready for real transformation.

What if the very emotions you've been trying to escape are the key to your spiritual awakening, your manifestation power, and your deepest soul purpose? Today's episode challenges the entire “high-vibe only” culture in modern spirituality. Our guest, David Strickel, creator of the Tya Practice (Trust Your Abundance), says we've been trying to skip the most transformative part of consciousness work: the shadow, the grief, the anger, the frustration...those “low-vibe” frequencies we love to avoid. Instead of bypassing them, he teaches us how to leverage low vibration as fuel, how to turn trauma into clarity, and how to raise our default frequency by wrestling the dragon instead of pretending it's not there.Inside This Brave Conversation You'll learn: Why avoiding “low-vibration emotions” prevents true spiritual growthHow manifestation fails when you activate the vibration of need instead of creationThe difference between acceptance, surrender, and authentic appreciationHow trauma and adversity expand consciousness instead of limiting itWhy abundance starts in early childhood belief systemsThe real reason “positive thinking” stops working And yes, we talk about how to stop bypassing, how to dismantle victimhood without shame, and how to do the work without losing yourself.Most Mind-Bending Takeaways:
