Happy Satiated Saturday! Many of you may know that touch has been linked to the release of oxytocin. Oxytocin is a hormone related to reproduction, social bonding, stress regulation, and promotes feelings of love, trust, attachment, intimacy, and calm. Ya know what else stimulates the release of oxytocin? Eating. Research studies have found that an increase in oxytocin can decrease the urge to eat. So you can imagine that if you're lacking safe touch in your life and touch has felt invasive, where you stay away from touch, that your body needed to find another way to receive the oxytocin that it desires to feel calm and connected. It found a way to do that through food. This is another example of why food is not just about the food. We can continue to be curious about what food is doing for your body.In this week's episode, I chat with Dr. Njideka Olatunde, author, Master Reflexologist, Pain Relief Educator, and founder of Focus On Healing Wellness Institute about: The power of touch and re-defining what touch isUnderstanding the connection between stress and painRefloxologyDaily touch practicesThe importance of play and funI also sprinkle in the connection between touch and your food behaviorsYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/touch-for-healing-pain-and-decreasing-cravingsWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Dr. Olatunde here: Website: https://focusonhealing.com/LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/njidekanolatunde Instagram: www.instagram.com/evolving_butterfly YouTube: www.youtube.com/@changingliveswithtouchology Podcast: www.touchologywellnessexperience.comSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Send us a textEver had one of those weeks where everything feels impossible—even the things you normally love? That's exactly what happened as I tried to record this podcast episode. Four separate attempts, four brick walls. But instead of forcing it, I decided to get curious about what was really going on beneath the surface.My body was sending signals through back pain and fatigue that something needed attention. As a Gen X woman, I was trained to power through discomfort—to ignore my needs until breaking point. People used to call me Wonder Woman because I just kept going no matter what. It served me well... until it didn't.Our bodies hold onto everything we've experienced—physical, emotional, spiritual. When we consistently ignore what we need, our bodies eventually force us to stop through pain or illness. But there's another way. By pausing to ask "what do I actually need right now?" we can break the cycle of pushing until we break. This simple practice of presence allows us to tune into our mind, body, and spirit before we reach crisis point.If you're running on empty and struggling to hear what your body is telling you, know that it's not too late to change the pattern. Grab my free guide "Five Ways to Practice Presence" from the show notes and start today. Remember, you don't need permission to take care of yourself—but if you do, consider it granted. The world needs what only you have to offer, but first, you need to take care of the vessel delivering those gifts.5 Ways to Practice Presence

Sometimes illness isn't here to break us—it's here to wake us. In this episode, I open up about the deeper meaning behind my chronic illness and how it became one of my greatest teachers. If you've ever felt like your body was trying to tell you something, this is your sign to lean in and listen.   We'll explore the emotional roots of physical symptoms, the whispers we often ignore, and how illness can guide us back to ourselves. This isn't just about pain—this is about purpose.   Looking for deeper healing.   Book a complimentary call with Janet.   https://www.janetprado.com/heal-with-janet/   Watch the full episode on YouTube & Stay Connected By Subcribing https://youtu.be/nWoUyWbDNec   By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that the entire contents are the property of Happiness From Within, or used by Happiness From Within with permission, and are protected under U.S. and international copyright and trademark laws.

Happy Satiated Saturday! Intuition has been fascinating for me. I first started getting into the mind-body connection through practicing and learning about yoga and yoga philosophy. In yoga classes, I would often hear teachers talking about trusting your intuition. To be guided by your intuition. But, what I rarely heard was descriptions of how do you know something is intuition. Is what you're feeling intuition or fear? The more I learned about somatic work, the more I started to question the experience of intuition and where it comes from. When I finally discovered that intuitive processes are correlated with the activation of a part of the prefrontal cortex, called the orbitofrontal cortex, and that this part of your brain is diminished in activity after experience childhood trauma, I began to piece together that intuition is not something that everyone may easily be able to tap into based on their history. In this week's episode, I chat with Katie Beecher, Licensed Professional Counselor and Medical and Emotional Intuitive, about: The difference between intuition and fearPractices to strengthen your intuitionThe healing power of movement and artEmbracing your sensitivitiesImportant factors to include in your food recovery journeyYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/discover-your-inner-wisdomWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Katie: Website: https://katiebeecher.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/katiebeecher_medical_intuitive/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/beechermedicalintuitiveSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

What do we do when we feel frozen in the face of manufactured crisis and overwhelm? I sit down with wise and wonderful Sharazad Jamal to talk about finding your way back to your inner truth, using creativity, intuition, and ancient wisdom tools to navigate fear and chaos.In this deeply resonant conversation, artist and soul-guide Sharazad Jamal joins me to explore how we navigate ongoing chaos, collective trauma, and personal overwhelm. We dive into tools and practices that help move through fear, reconnect to intuition, and activate creativity during crisis.

Do you think it's normal to feel discomfort in your body? Or do you recognize discomfort as your body's attempt to communicate with you? In this thought-provoking episode, I challenge the idea that our bodies betray us. We'll talk about how we've been conditioned to ignore discomfort, push through pain, and normalize symptoms like bloating, fatigue, inflammation, and poor sleep—until something more serious forces us to listen. I'll share my personal experiences and real-life stories—including the heartbreaking loss of my brother to a curable cancer—to illustrate why tuning into your body's signals matters now, not later. I'll walk you through the challenges of behavior change, the role of chronic stress in disconnecting us from our own bodies, and how mindfulness can help us rebuild trust and awareness. This episode isn't just for breast cancer survivors—it's for everyone who wants to live a more connected, healthy, and intentional life.

Happy Satiated Saturday! How do you currently view symptoms or impulses in your body?Are they something to be fixed? Are they wrong or bad? Are you afraid of them when they increase? If you said yes to these questions, you might notice how does it feel in your body to view the body's symptoms and impulses as wrong, bad, fearful, and need of fixing? Something I've been teaching for a while is that your food coping mechanisms are not a problem. Often, what needs to be updated is how you respond to your body when it is sending you communication through a symptom or urge. What if you started to invite that reaction to the table and make it alright that this is what you're experiencing? In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Ali Damron, Hormone Expert, Licensed Acupuncturist, and Certified Personal Trainer, about: Understanding neuroplastic painThe complexity of emotions in healingUpdating your relationship to stressUpdating your body's storyUnderstanding the role of fear in physical symptomsEmbracing discomfortAnxiety as a messenger of informationThe importance of naming your feelings and emotional check-insYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​. I just created a brand new workshop called Move Through Binge Urges and Binge Pitfalls with Somatic Eating®, and I will be teaching it live on Wednesday, April 30th at 1:30 pm ET.

In Episode 42, we're joined by the incredible Alice May Redmond, and from the very first question — "What do you think happens when you die?" — this one goes deep. Like, soul-contracts-past-lives-karma-and-why-your-friendship-breakup-was-meant-to-happen* deep.We unpack the layers of intuition, why most people are addicted to the wrong life, and how your body already knows the truth — if you're willing to listen.

Happy Satiated Saturday! While trauma-based food coping mechanisms, like binge eating, can feel dramatic, healing can sometimes (not always) be incredibly boring. Decreasing food patterns can look like simple acts of body care, like:Eating consistent, balanced mealsMoving your body in nourishing waysTaking time to breathe and enjoy a momentFostering a validating inner dialogue Finding ways to laugh and have fun These are the non-sexy, simple, not marketable ways of what it can look like to take care of your body and reconnect with yourself. In this week's episode, I chat with Ashley Fillmore, Coach, Metabolism Expert, and the founder of Metabolic Fix™, about: Shifting from reactive actions for your health to preventativeThe role of stress, mindset, and burnout in your health and food behaviorsFinding the right practitioner to work with for you and how to state your needs with themIdentifying progress beyond the scaleYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/lasting-body-wellnessThe doors to the Somatic Eating® Program open on Tuesday, April 29th!

In this episode, I sit down with Lisa Glazebrook, a fitness professional with over 20 years of experience. Lisa's journey began in the world of boxing, but it was her diagnosis with MS that led her to a deeper understanding of true healing.

Lisa shares how embracing self-love and body awareness creates more harmonious energy, allowing for greater resilience, balance and healing. We explore what it means to truly listen to your body's signals, release fear based control, and step into a place of deep inner connection. If you have ever felt disconnected from your body or pressured to push through pain, this episode will inspire you to tune in, let go, and trust the process of healing.

Happy Satiated Saturday! When I started to learn about the mind-body connection through yoga, I dove deep into all things yoga. I became a bit of a yoga fanatic and that led me to learn about Ayurveda, which is yoga's sister science. Ayurveda is a whole-body system of medicine. Rather than seeing symptoms as problems to be fixed, Ayurveda approaches symptoms as imbalances that can be brought into balance with foods, movements, and self-care routines. Ayurveda gave me a new lens to see my body through. I got to experience the exquisite wisdom in my body. I learned that food can be an ally helping to bring me into balance rather than what diet culture taught me was that food was something to be controlled and to eat as little of it as possible. In this week's episode, I chat with Dr. Shivani Gupta, Ayurvedic practitioner and inflammation expert, about: What Ayurveda isThe 3 doshas and how to determine which one you might beWhat foods and actions support your unique doshaThe importance of eating seasonallyWhat we can learn from an Ayurvedic approach to food and our bodiesYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/an-ayurvedic-perspective-on-food-as-medicineHope you all enjoy this week's episode!With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Dr. Shivani: Website: www.shivanigupta.com Free 7-Day Inflammation Detox Challenge: https://www.7dayinflammationdetox.com/optin1641313075014Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.shivanigupta/ Support the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Happy Satiated Saturday! Have you ever noticed that the strongest memories are the ones where you felt the most presence and embodiment? I will never forget my first yoga class because when I was shaking while holding a plank, I couldn't be anywhere else but in my body. At the beginning of your eating recovery, you may feel disconnected and dissociated. Your body has felt like an unsafe place to inhabit. Food has served as a wise strategy to create distance from your body or a micro-moment of feeling alive. Creating safety with food is less about food and more about expanding your capacity to be in your body while you eat, feel, and live. Embodiment is often the missing piece in healing your food coping mechanisms. In this week's episode, I chat with Ann Saffi Biasetti, Transpersonal Psychologist and Eating Disorder Expert, about: What embodiment isThe importance of creating safe and comfortable embodying experiencesThe process of embodimentCreating a language for describing body sensations and emotionsHow embodiment can impact food behaviorsWhat the ongoing journey of embodiment looks likeYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/embodiment-in-eating-recoveryThe next Somatic Eating® Program starts on May 22nd.

Happy Satiated Saturday! Proprioception is your body's ability to sense movement and know where you are in space. When you've experienced past trauma, you dissociate from your body out of protection. This can decrease your proprioceptive awareness where food comes in to experience movement, embodiment, and have a moment of presence to feel where you are right here and now. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Dr. Satya Sardonicus, a leading expert in fascia and nervous system healing and the creator of NeuroFascial Flow, about: What is proprioception and fasciaHow low proprioception and rigidity in your fascial system can lead to increased stressProprioceptive and fascial exercises you can engage in that can help you to navigate food urgesWhat somatic and nervous system practices could be making things worse and dysregulating youYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/the-power-of-proprioceptive-practicesHope you enjoy this episode and see you all next week!With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Satya:Website: https://drsatyawellness.com/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drsatyawellness/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drsatyawellnessSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Happy Satiated Saturday! In April of 2022, I went to Disney World with my family and came back with covid. It was, unfortunately, the Delta strain that left me with long covid. I had to use an oxygen concentrator while I slept for about a year while my lungs healed through nebulized steroids and inhalers. I also had the lovely long covid symptom of losing my ability to swallow where I was on an all-liquid way of eating for almost two years. It's been quite a journey! While there are a few long covid symptoms I still navigate, I am now able to chew and swallow foods again, can sleep soundly, and generally feel much more grounded and stable in my body.Along the way, I learned so much about how the body works and that food behaviors are multi-faceted and influenced by many different internal factors. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Lily Spechler, Long Covid Registered Dietician, about: Our own long covid healing journeysWhat can happen in the body after getting long covidNavigating histamine, mcas, dysautonomia issuesHow food and supplements can play a role in increasing or decreasing bodily symptomsThe non-food reasons you may overeat or gain or lose weightAnd a lot more!Even if you don't have long covid there are so many gems in this episode to take away. You can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/healing-from-long-covid-and-chronic-illnessThe next Somatic Eating® Program starts on Thursday, May 22nd.

I'd love to hear from you drop me a text!Welcome to The Scrumptious WomanIn this powerful episode, I sit down with Nikki Wetherell, a somatic sexologist and trainee counsellor, for an intimate conversation about trauma, healing, sexuality, and the journey to authenticity. Nikki shares her deeply personal story of navigating sexual trauma, birth trauma, coming out later in life, and exploring polyamory while maintaining a loving marriage and family life.Episode Summary: Nikki opens up about her path to becoming a somatic sexologist and her belief in the power of combining traditional therapy with bodywork. We discuss the importance of safe touch, the wisdom of the body, and how trauma can resurface during significant life events like childbirth. Nikki bravely shares her experience of remembering and processing sexual trauma, and how feeling truly safe for the first time allowed her to explore and acknowledge her queer identity in her late 30s.Key Takeaways:The vital importance of trusting your body's wisdom and finding practitioners who will listen to and honour that wisdomHow feeling safe can unlock deeper understanding of ourselves and our authentic identitiesThe complex journey of coming out later in life while maintaining existing relationships and family dynamicsThe challenges of navigating polyamory when partners are monogamousThe significance of having proper support and poly-informed therapists when exploring non-traditional relationship structuresNikki reminds us that healing isn't linear - it's more like an infinity sign where we revisit similar themes but with greater awareness each time. Her story beautifully illustrates how authenticity, though challenging, is worth pursuing despite societal conditioning and expectations.Resources: Connect with Nikki:Instagram: @CelestialSoulCoachWebsite: celestialsoul.co.ukIf you enjoyed this episode, please share it with anyone who might benefit from hearing this powerful conversation about healing, authenticity, and embracing all parts of ourselves. Join me next time, for another taboo-breaking, boundary-pushing episode of The Scrumptious Woman.Much LoveJuliette x  Find out more about Juliette Karaman here: https://feelfullyyou.com Follow Juliette on instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/juliettekaraman/ Follow Juliette on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/juliette.karamanvanschaardenburg Don't forget to Rate and leave a review so more people can tune in and the ripple effect spreads further.

Happy Satiated Saturday! I take a different approach to body image healing. I apply the same explorations I do with food from a somatic perspective to body image. I started to wonder why is it that you can look in the mirror and love what you see one day and then later that day or the next day look in the mirror and feel like everything needs to change. Your body did not change within 24 hours. The answer is your nervous system. You will perceive your body differently based on your nervous system state. Often body image worries increase when you don't feel safe. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Deb Schachter, author and Boston's leading clinicians in body image and eating disorder recovery, about: Navigating bad body image momentsThe role of relationships in body imageWhat your body is trying to tell you through body image concernsAn internal family systems perspective on body imageThe importance of connection and community on this healing pathYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/bad-body-image-momentsWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Deb: Website: https://debschachterlicsw.com/ https://bodyimageinsideout.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bodyimageinsideout/ Book-Body Image Inside Out: https://amzn.to/4hQdLNaSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Happy Satiated Saturday! Somatic practices have become a buzzword as the new supplement you can take to “calm” yourself down, to shake off a trauma response, and maybe not binge eat. They can feel alluring. When you're struggling with food, you just want an answer. There can be panic and desperation at willing to try anything to make sure you won't binge again. You may find yourself trying to shake, or tap, or dunk your face in ice-cold water. This may feel calming for a few minutes and then you watch yourself walk into the kitchen and grab food.Gah!

Happy Satiated Saturday! Something I've been noticing is how much we're taught to see any symptom as a sign that something is "wrong" and that we have to embark on a "healing journey" to "fix" the symptom. For a moment, try this out on your body. Tell it that there is something wrong that you need to fix. What do you notice? How does your body respond to that?Striving to “heal” your body sends the message to your body that you are in danger. Your body activates your sympathetic nervous system and takes all your internal resources away from repair toward survival. You cannot heal in a fight or flight state. To decrease any bodily symptom or food coping mechanism, you have to stop thinking of yourself as broken and needing to be fixed. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Andrea Nakayama, Functional Medicine Nutritionist, educator, and founder of Functional Nutrition Alliance about: The gaps in traditional healthcareShifting perspective of a "healing journey"Misconceptions of nutritionThe basics of a health foundationUnderstanding the body's signalsThe three tiers of nutritional masteryRole of Narrative Medicine in recoverySupporting the body's natural healingYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/narrative-medicine-in-understanding-your-bodyWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Andrea:Websites: https://www.andreanakayama.com/https://www.fxnutrition.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andreanakayama/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/ReplenishPDXFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/AndreaNakayama.pageLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreanakayama/Support the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

In this episode, Mary Sanders talks about Chakras Unveiled: The Hidden Path to Body Wisdom.

In this episode of The Brilliant Body Podcast, host Ali Mezey, co-producer Florence Popoff and guest Karen Bellone discuss the often avoided topics of death, dying, and the natural capability of the body. They explore deep-seated fears surrounding death, how modern society is distanced from it, and the importance of having open conversations about mortality - of humans and other animals. They also dive into the idea of conscious living and dying, the discrepancies in generational attitudes toward death, and how engaging with the natural cycles of life can expand awareness. Reflective of cultural beliefs and personal experiences, this episode encourages listeners to open up and discuss these difficult yet enriching topics.MORE ALI MEZEY:Website:  www.alimezey.comPersonal Geometry® and the Magic of Mat Work Course information:www.alimezey.com/personal-geometry-foundationsTransgenerational Healing Films: www.constellationarts.comMORE FLORENCE POPOFF:Website: www.gamriegardens.comInstagram: @gamriegardensMORE KAREN BELLONE:The Seventh Sense website: www.theseventhsense.orgFilm Website: www.kbfilms.comBIO:Founder, Doula, Educator: Karen Bellone, MFA, is a Certified End-of-Life Doula and Death Educator. She is the founder of The Seventh Sense in NY's Hudson Valley, where she is an integral part of a worldwide community that is reigniting the wisdom of death within our modern lives. She is also founder of Exit Strategy for Dying, a monthly Death, Arts and Culture Readers supporting a resource hub to educate and refocus the narrative around death and grief through the lens of arts, culture, storytelling and innovation. Prior to embracing her passion for end-of-life work, Karen has had a long career as an award-winning filmmaker and internationally collected photographer. She received a BFA in Film Production from New York University, and did graduate work with the world-renowned Actors Studio, through their inaugural program at the New School for Social Research.After training and becoming certified with INELDA (International End of Life Doula Association), Karenworked with an innovative hospice in Los Angeles where her skills as a death doula were developed and broadened. In addition to working with patients in various stages of their life journeys, she was responsible for training the volunteer staff, nurses and other hospice and medical professionals to bring more understanding, humanity and compassion into their work with the dying. She spoke regularly with groups, such as the Alzheimer's Project, about the role of the doula at end-of-life, and the space that can be held to bring about ‘a good death'. She believes strongly in the ability to demystify and assuage the fear that surrounds death in our culture and to foster safe passage for the dying, as well as to aid the families and loved ones through grief and bereavement.As a visual artist and storyteller, Karen acquired a multitude of skills throughout her career that unlocked a deep passion for the healing power of visual and auditory perception on human consciousness. She integrated these strengths and resources into tools to bring aid and comfort for those imminently facing their mortality. Working with somatic and sensory awareness, Karen utilizes visual, sound and meditation therapy, personalized guided imagery, and commemoration of the sacred in the form of ritual, legacy and memory work, in order to bring comfort - physically, emotionally, spiritually to celebrate and commemorate the life of the individual. In addition to her ongoing private practice, Karen is currently directing a feature film about living American artist Michelle Stuart, whose work also engages with the elemental and ineffable nature of existence.RESOURCES:Edgar Allan PoeExit strategy for dying (Karen's monthly newsletter)All the Little DeathsAllen GinsbergKaren's Episode A 'Good Death', Death Doula: Embracing Life & Mortality PART ONEIn Buddhism, death is viewed as a natural part of the life cycle and an opportunity for spiritual growth. The concept is deeply intertwined with the notions of impermanence (anicca) and rebirth (samsara). Rather than being an end, death is seen as a transition, where the energy of one's consciousness continues in a new form, influenced by karma—the cumulative effects of one's actions, thoughts, and intentions. The ultimate goal is to break free from the cycle of death and rebirth through enlightenment, which means reaching a state of liberation (nirvana) where the mind is free from suffering and attachment. Mindfulness and acceptance of death are considered essential practices, as they help individuals live more fully and prepare for the moment of death with clarity and peace.Green burial is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional burial practices that emphasizes simplicity, sustainability, and minimal impact on the earth. It typically involves using biodegradable materials, avoiding embalming chemicals, and opting for natural settings like conservation areas or designated green cemeteries. The goal is to allow the body to decompose naturally, returning nutrients to the soil, and preserving the surrounding ecosystem.Lambing season in Scotland, typically from March to May, is a busy and vital time on farms, as thousands of lambs are born each spring. This period is crucial for the meat industry, with farmers carefully tending to both ewes and newborns to ensure their health and growth. While lambing is often seen as a symbol of renewal and the start of spring, it is also a time of intense labor and long days for shepherds, who balance the joy of new life with the practical realities of raising livestock for food production.A Dream Within a DreamBY EDGAR ALLAN POETake this kiss upon the brow!And, in parting from you now,Thus much let me avow —You are not wrong, who deemThat my days have been a dream;Yet if hope has flown awayIn a night, or in a day,In a vision, or in none,Is it therefore the less gone?

They glimmered dully in the light issuing from more candle brackets set at intervals along the shelves. Like those in the circular room behind them, their flames were burning blue. The room was very cold"— Description of the Hall of Prophecy[src]The Hall of Prophecy was a chamber within the Department of Mysteries, on Level 9 of the British Ministry of Magic in London, England. The hall featured shelves containing records of prophecies,[1]though many of these records (if not all) were destroyed by the Reductor Curse. This was a part of a battle between Death Eaters and Dumbledore's Army members; it occurred in the Hall in 1996.[2]Its existence was long rumoured within the general wizarding community, but never confirmed by the Ministry itself until 1996.[3] The destruction of the Time-Turners was mentioned in the Daily Prophet.The Hall of Prophecy, which was entered through the Time Room, was described as a vast, cold chamber with a ceiling as high as that of a cathedral. It was filled with row upon row of towering shelves. On these shelves were hundreds of small, dusty, glass orbs (Prophecy Records), each with a yellowed and dusty label affixed below. Candle-brackets set at intervals along the shelves held blue-flame candles.[1]The row of shelves directly in front of the door from the Time Room was number 53. Number 54 was to the right of that, then 55, and so on. The light was very dim in the Hall. The candles were located on either end of each row, which meant that from one end, the far end of each row was lost in darkness. Some of the orbs glowed with a faint inner light, but others were cold and dark. The prophecy regarding Harry Potter was located a short distance down row 97.[1]HELP US SHARE OUR MESSAGEOur events remain free as part of our mission to awaken people to the boundless potential of our bodies, inviting ...

Please benefit from this short grounding meditation led by Sexual Healer, Lorraine Pentello. At least 50% of the population has been sexually traumatized in their lifetimes which means it's very likely you, as a lover, are with someone who has been. This mediation can help you to help them - if ever you notice your partner drifting off, freezing, numb, destablized, highly reactive in a sexual context. Their sexual trauma may be being triggered - by no fault of your own! Here is how to help...your lover, and yourself, so that you don't take it personally, get defensive, feel rejected, maybe angry and frustrated - all of which could deepen that trauma. The more you can stay regulated, present, objective and compassionate, the more you can actually help your parter to heal sexually and increase presence and pleasure. MORE ALI MEZEY:Website:  https://www.alimezey.comPersonal Geometry® and the Magic of Mat Work Course information:https://www.alimezey.com/personal-geometry-foundationsTransgenerational Healing Films: https://constellationarts.com/MORE LORRAINE PENTELLO:www.lorrainepentello.comBIO: Lorraine Pentello (she/he/they)Lorraine is a Somatic Therapist and bodyworker specialising in sexuality and trauma.

In this minisode, I'm sharing insights from the first week of my philosophy class at a local yoga studio, where we explored how it feels in the body when you're living in alignment with your dharma—or soul's purpose. Our minds can run in endless circles with unhelpful thoughts, but our bodies never lie. They act as truth-tellers, revealing what's really going on beneath the surface. I'll guide you through an exercise we did in class to help you reconnect with your body's wisdom by visualizing a moment of joy and tuning into how it felt. These sensations can serve as a compass, helping you recognize when you're on the right path. Living in alignment doesn't mean everything will be easy, but even in hard moments, you'll feel a sense of flow, creativity, and presence that lets you know you're exactly where you need to be. Join me for this reflective conversation on how your body can guide you toward your most authentic and purposeful life. Your body reveals emotional truths and subconscious beliefs. Living in alignment with your purpose brings feelings of flow and presence, even during challenges. Visualizing joyful moments can help you access your body's wisdom. Your body knows when you're on the right path, even if your mind doesn't. If you're ready to uncover your soul's purpose and live with more joy, peace, and meaning, I offer a 12-week one-on-one coaching program designed to help you reconnect with yourself. You can also join me for Dharma classes every Monday night at Balanced Planet Yoga in Marlton, NJ—or attend remotely via Zoom. Register through the MindBody app to reserve your spot.

As mothers, we truly get to experience the magic and miracle of the female body as we carry our babies. Growing another human being makes us bring attention to our bodies in a profound way.     But at the same time, that beautiful experience gets interrupted in the birthing process, especially when it's a traumatic one. Because the process of having a baby is governed so heavily by the mechanics and medicine of it, we can lose that connection with our bodies and struggle to reignite it. Perhaps you stop feeling safe in your body.     Or you escape into your brain to make sense of it all. Or you start feeling like you didn't deliver (pun intended) on what's expected of you as a woman.     Bringing attention to our body wisdom allows us to reclaim our bodies, but first, we have to grieve. We have to move through the sadness and feelings of loss in order to heal. If we learn to be with grief, our internal landscape expands and creates room for more joy, love, connection and self-love.     How do we heal ourselves through giving our bodies attention? How do we work through the aftermath of a difficult birthing process? In this episode, we're joined by our good friend and collaborator Abby Hildebrand. She shares her journey into motherhood and how she's reconnected with her own body.    Things You'll Learn In This Episode     -Reignite the conversation with your body   As women, society gives us so many reasons to not feel safe in our bodies. How do we reclaim the connection and find the safety in ourselves?    -Birth and rebirth   Having a baby is a beautiful experience but a traumatic birthing process can leave us feeling like strangers to our own inner landscape. How does this emerge and show up?    -The friendliest way to be with grief   There's a huge difference between riding the wave of grief and picking at a scab to continue the suffering. How do we let the grief move through us?  Guest Bio  Abby Hildebrand is a trauma-informed Breathwork Facilitator, Perinatal Mental Health Advocate, Emotional Transformation Guide, speaker, author and CEO of Wellness Creek Consulting. As an experienced human connection and development leader at a successful engineering firm, Abby thought motherhood would be a breeze in comparison. After navigating the ups and downs of postpartum anxiety and depression, she has dug deep into what creates massive emotional transformation and is on a mission to empower mothers everywhere to take control of their own health and wellness, one breath at a time.    About Your Hosts  Kathlyn Hendricks, Ph.D., BC-DMT*, is an evolutionary catalyst and freelance mentor who has been a pioneer in the field of body intelligence and conscious loving for over forty years.
