In this episode of The Rose Woman Podcast, erotic artist and co-founder of OneTaste, Nicole Daedone, joins us to discuss important topics like internalized shame, sexual wellness, and personal transformation. As an expert in Buddhist meditation and sexual wellness, and the author of "The Eros Sutras," Nicole shares her extensive knowledge and experience with us. So Listen in and discover valuable insights that can help you on your journey towards greater self-awareness and intimacy.Nicole Daedone co-founded OneTaste to reawaken the connection with intimacy, with each other, and to the primal source of energy that drives creativity—sexuality. She created a contemplative discipline around Orgasmic Meditation (OM) that offers an immediate experience of what happens when individuals unleash rather than repress who they are. Since then, OneTaste has gathered some of the greatest research psychologists and neuroscientists to study the intersection of sexuality and human potential, conducting the largest study of its kind since Masters and Johnson. OM has perhaps the most powerful effect of any natural process on healing trauma, promoting well-being, and fostering transcendental experiences. Nicole has brought people together and created systems to manifest and ground this vision in observable benefits.In this episode, we cover:Origins of Orgasmic MeditationDevelopment of OMFeminine Transmission and LanguageOn Writing "The Ero Sutras" manifestoWhat does “Eros” mean?Tumescence and Creative FlowVajra PrideThoughts on desire for further evolution and perfectionThe transformative power of acceptance and self-loveFulfillment Beyond ExpectationsSocietal Conditioning Around Female DesireTrue Desire vs. CravingContributing to SocietyBreaking Free from VictimhoodOn Recognizing Projection in the realm of sexuality and authenticityTrust in Personal ExperienceThe War on SexAI algorithms reflecting societal biases and CensorshipCancel Culture, Resilience and Deep ListeningHelpful links:Nicole Daedone - Author of The Eros SutrasCheck out her latest programs and projects here.

Friends, I'm so excited to share today's guest with you. Every so often I interview a podcast guest who changes my life and I believe Meghan Johnston is one of those people. Meghan is a life coach and a restorative yoga teacher with over 12 years of experience in holistic wellness, space holding, and experiential learning. And if you've been listening to the past few episodes here, you'll know that I recently went through a little period of burnout, so this interview with Meghan is so well-timed. I put into practice some of the things she and I talk about today, including some restorative yoga, and I feel better than I have in months! So Meghan and I are going to talk in depth about all the ways you can feel this way too.Meghan shares the story of how burnout at a young age brought her into the space of really learning how we view rest, individually and as a society. She and I talk about how rest has become this thing that we view as lazy or something we don't deserve because we are meant to always be achieving. Meghan explains the importance of rest and uses the analogies of annual seasons of blooming and decay, and of the philosophy of the yin and yang. I love when she says “You don't have to earn rest. You're worthy of rest as you are” because that is often the opposite of the messaging we get in society. Meghan talks more about what restorative yoga is, the balance of rest and activity, what healthy stress is for, and the “three P's of energy”. I really am so pleased to bring this episode to you all and I hope you can find the life-changing moments in it that I did. We all deserve to change our thinking around rest and restoration.About Meghan Johnston:Meghan is a Life Coach and Restorative Yoga teacher with over 12 years of experience in holistic wellness, space-holding, and experiential learning.

What does life look like when we start to notice our emotions as messengers instead of over-identifying with them? In today's Mini Musing, I'm exploring this question from both a scientific and a spiritual perspective. I share Candace Pert's work on the molecules of emotion, and I ask what it might mean to change the vibration of our cells while honoring our feelings as they arrive. Then I revisit a recent episode of the Twelfth House podcast about archetype embodiment, and I explore how we might try on new archetypes to amplify different energies in our day-to-day lives. Join me as I weave a path through our emotions, our perceptions, and our selves. Then DM me on Instagram @sarahtacyt and let me know how today's episode landed with you.

Jennifer Ibbotson Rodriguez is a consulting hypnotist who works with trauma survivors to help them heal, thrive and enjoy their lives. Her longest recovery came as a result of the collapse of the ‘twin towers' back in September 11, 2001, after which she married a disabled combat veteran who was struggling to heal his own traumas. For years Jen has been fascinated by the brain and the power of mindset, so it comes as no surprise that she will be delivering a presentation at the National Convention of The National Guild of Hypnotists this August called: Hypnosis: The Bridge Between Neural-plasticity and Quantum Realities.

He handed me the book, The Way of the Peaceful Warrior back in 1991 or 92. That is to say from that point on, we always said, What time is it? Now? Where are you? Here. Effect on Emotions Emotion comes in and emotion goes. Likewise, the breath, there is no start and there is no end. Therefore, it is cyclical, so whatever I'm feeling in the moment, is the gift of life. I know what numb feels like so I think it's as close to death as we can get. Therefore with every feeling I'm blessed with at the moment, I accept it for the wisdom that it is sharing. Thoughts on Breathing I was very fortunate very early to learn Buddha belly breathing, but I was confused. In the beginning, I thought that's how we were supposed to breathe all the time. It wasn't something I was able to do all the time. And as trauma overtook my body I learned that breathing became shallower and shallower. However, trauma-responsive breathing doesn't allow for the holding of the breath, because that actually increases adrenaline. So the way that I choose to breathe when I need to breathe out trauma, and breathe in peace happens when I release my jaw. I exhale first because the body can always exhale even when it can't inhale. And then after the inhale, I exhale for as twice as long as the inhale. To sum it up, it always starts with an exhale, whatever the inhale is to the belly, and then exhale twice as long. That's me, that's my breathing technique and how I Suggested Resources Book: Buddha's Brain: The Practical Neuroscience of Happiness, Love, and Wisdom Book: You Are the Placebo: Making Your Mind Matter Book: The Hidden Messages in Water Bullying Story Certainly, the story that I was coming to was that gentleman with his dad.

Our stories provide a shorthand self, which gives us focus while the stories make sense, but they put our happiness at risk. If we imagine them to be complete and permanent we are doomed to suffer. When we release our attachment to our stories, we create freedom. Only through our actions will we transform ourselves and our world. The stories are only decorative.We talk with Noah Rasheta about the stories around him, as he lives a life with fewer attachments. We find out how we can avoid those attachments by doing things, but not being things.Noah Rasheta is the host of the Secular Buddhism podcast and author of three books on Buddhism.LinksMindful Agility Web Site, for links to the Mindful Agility podcast, resources, and blogSecular Buddhism Web Site, for links to the Secular Buddhism podcast, books, and resourcesStephen Batchelor Web Site, for books and coursesRick Hansen, Buddha's Brain: The Practical Neuroscience of Happiness, Love & Wisdom, New Harbinger Publications, 2009.CreditsPhoto of PT Barnum and Tom Thumb, Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery, circa 1840.The sting separator sound used in this episode is a derivative of Swing beat 120 xylophone side-chained by Casonika used under license CC BY by Daniel Greening.

In this episode, Gabi, Isabelle, and Robyn are sharing stories of how they use the principles in a few of their favorite books to rewire their brain so that it attaches to positive experiences which in turn lowers overall stress and helps them live a life aligned with purpose and passion. Gabi breaks down how the book, Buddha's Brain: The Practical Neuroscience of Happiness, Love, & Wisdom, demonstrates the way that our brain is wired for a "negativity bias" and that while this is useful in keeping us safe, it is also the same function that is often keeping us from being happy. Isabelle shares how using some of the mediations & reflection exercises in the book Happier: Learn the Secrets to Daily Joy & Lasting Fulfillment, can help transform that negativity bias by mindfully evaluating our actions & behaviors relative to present versus future benefit and detriment. Robyn discusses how empowering it has been to listen to the docuseries, Proven, and see how these unconventional methods of healing- such as mindfulness, mediation, grounding in nature- can not only rewire your brain, but also redefine your health, happiness, and vibrancy. Hope this episode inspires you to also live boldly & question everything.

This week the Encountering Silence podcast features just the three of us — Cassidy, Kevin and Carl — reflecting on this extraordinary moment we find ourselves in. Recorded on March 24, 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, naturally we are reflecting on the spirituality of silence and solitude while much of the world has embraced the necessity of sheltering-at-home and social distancing in order to slow the spread of the virus. But we also recognize that the challenges we are collectively facing during this pandemic could have parallels in almost any crisis situation — any time when life's circumstances present us with situations where we recognize we are not fully in control, we are faced with silence and solitude that may not be of our own choosing, and we are invited to recognize how important it is to embrace our common humanity and relatedness to one another. Silence is all about releasing control, and all about letting go and being, and melting into this vision of unity... this collective common good, this oneness. — Cassidy Hall Carl, Cassidy, and Kevin You've been trained, your whole life, to focus on thinking, words, achievement, doing... so now when you having something like silence and stillness, we don't have places for that in our culture, forced upon you... well, it's a struggle, because you're fighting a habit. — Kevin Johnson Some of the resources and authors we mention in this episode: Thomas Merton, Conjectures of a Guilty Bystander St. Benedict, The Rule of Saint Benedict Julian of Norwich, The Showings of Julian of Norwich Blaise Pascal, Pensées and Other Writings The Desert Mothers and Fathers, Early Christian Wisdom Sayings The Beatles, "All Together Now," Yellow Submarine The Tao te Ching The Qur'an Kerry Connelly, Good* White Racist: Confronting Your Role in Racial Injustice Audre Lord, The Collected Poems Sarah Griffith Lund, Blessed are the Crazy: Breaking the Silence about Mental Illness, Family and Church Rick Hanson with Richard Mendius, Buddha's Brain: The Practical Neuroscience of Happiness, Love, and Wisdom Gerald May, The Awakened Heart: Opening Yourself to the Love You Need Teilhard de Chardin, The Heart of Matter Howard Thurman, Meditations of the Heart Robert Bringhurst and Jan Zwicky, Learning to Die: Wisdom in the Age of Climate Crisis Therese Schroeder-Sheker, Transitus: A Blessed Death in the Modern World David Abram, The Spell of the Sensuous: Pereption and Language in a More-Than-Human World Erazim Kohák, The Embers and the Stars: A Philosophical Inquiry into the Moral Sense of Nature Wendell Berry, The Selected Poems of Wendell Berry At the end of the episode, Cassidy quotes from the wonderful poem "Stay Home" by Wendell Berry. Here is a recording in which Berry reads his own poem, followed by a musical setting of it, from the CD Celebrating Wendell Berry in Music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqTYhxMb_Xo Silence and solitude and stillness and contemplation do not exist just to facilitate action. There is a place in which silence and solitude and stillness exist simply because they are good and they are necessary. — Carl McColman Episode 93: Encountering Silence in Times of Crisis Hosted by: Cassidy Hall With: Carl McColman, Kevin Johnson Date Recorded: March 24, 2020 Featured image: Photo by Amelie & Niklas Ohlrogge on Unsplash.

Are you feeling stuck in a stress mess, overwhelmed, and overstimulated by the demands of your life? Spread too thin and not prioritizing self-care because you feel like it's selfish when so many other people need your help? Well, let's stop for a moment. How much can we really help others when we're just scraping by, ourselves? At the end of the day, we're only really worth as much as we can give, based on the energy we have in the time that we have. I'm your host, Dr. Heidi Hanna, and in this stress mastery podcast, we're talking to the experts to find out what they do to use stress as fuel for success and what they do to shift stress in a positive way when they notice it getting out of control. Because we're all human, we all get stuck sometimes and we can learn so much from each other when we take an honest look at the patterns that are hurting us, and create new patterns that will help us. So, let's get ready to master stress together in today's conversation! Key Takeaways: [1:12] Dr. Hanna welcomes listeners and shares how she met this week's guest, Dr. Rick Hanson — neuroscientist, clinical psychologist, therapist, best-selling author, business consultant, meditation retreat leader and much more! [3:09] Rick delves into what his new book Resilient: How to Grow an Unshakable Core of Calm, Strength, and Happiness, is about. [5:30] If well-being comes from resilience, where does resilience come from? [7:19] Dr. Hanna asks Rick for a practical example of a quick and focused intervention to help the brain rewire itself. [9:44] Rick talks about the way people learn and the way it ties into their sense of self-worth. [11:32] Dr. Heidi moves the conversation to hear Rick's thoughts on the negativity bias which is a struggle that people are not talking about a lot. [14:19] What to do about this stone-age brain of ours? [15:07] Dr. Hanna touches on the importance of the challenge as a growth factor. [17:09] The discussion on challenge brings Rick to open up about the challenging roots that brought about his new book. [19:15] Dr. Hanna asks Rick why he thinks meditation is so helpful. [23:26] Dr. Hanna thanks her friend and guest and wraps up the show until next week. If you enjoyed this conversation, please be sure to subscribe now for exclusive listener gifts and check out the show notes for links, tips, tools, and techniques. Until next time, please remember that stressing is a blessing, once you know how to use it for good. It gives us the energy and information to fuel positive change if we're brave enough to look into it, stay open and curious to what it has to teach us, and then adjust our patterns in a way that will give us even more capacity to cope and when. When we do that together, we increase the energy we have to bring to the time that we have and we're better together. So please, be good to yourself, and I'll see you next week.

Akshay Nanavati is an entrepreneur, a high performance athlete, and a global thought leader. He overcame drug addiction, alcoholism and a bout of depression so intense that it sent him to the brink of suicide. In a fleeting moment, Akshay made a life changing decision to flip his life upside down. He has since built a global business, run ultramarathons, climbed mountains in the Himalayas, skied 350 miles across the world’s second largest icecap and fought as a U.S. marine in Iraq. He also wrote the book on FEAR - a book he entitled Fearvana which was so inspiring that the Dalai Lama himself, wrote the introduction. Akshay is now on a mission to run across every country in the world to raise awareness of his concept of Fearvana. He is scheduled to run an 11 day marathon across Liberia this October.

It's allowed me to be with my emotions and transcend them. One quick story is in relationship to survivor's guilt. I struggled with survivor's guilt when I came back from the war. I lost a friend. I let that guilt consume me in many dark ways through alcohol and all these kinds of things that drove me to some dark places. I felt I didn't deserve to be here; I didn't deserve to be alive. But now my guilt is an ally. I still feel it. I have a picture of my friend that says on the wall and it says, this should have been you. You earned this life. So mindfulness has allowed me to be with that guilt and be okay with it and channel it to something useful. Thoughts on Breathing I'm starting to get much more proactive, you know, through yoga and through my running because I'm really working on it a lot more. I also recently learned from my friend about the Wim Hof breathing method, Wim Hof, The Iceman. So it's starting to get much more proactive. Before that it was just really through deep breath and meditation, but it's definitely something I'm working on now. Enhancing to take my running and my life to the next level. My nutritionist friend Anthony, he had studied with Wim Hof, so he taught me a little bit about the Wim Hof breathing method and I mean on my second try, I held my breath for I think two to two and a half minutes. I'm not somebody who could do that. Like for some people it might be nothing, but for me I was never able to do that. Like that was not good at that. But just through this technique, I was blown away by how long I was able to hold my breath on my second try of doing it.

I'm not proud of it. But there was this one kid in Singapore, he was this little Indian kid and I used to kind of tease him a lot on the playing field. It was nothing serious, you know. But one day it got pretty serious. We were in the class and I essentially was the leader of this outfit where I got every kid in class; boys and girls, even the girls to get up and essentially punch this kid. The poor kid was obviously helpless, I mean, this is the entire class. He left the class crying. I still pretty vividly remember it. The whole class got in trouble, but they knew that I was the leader of this little band of bullies. I was suspended from school for a few days. Needless to say, my mom wasn't too proud of me. I wasn't too proud of it as well, but that was the one that stands out because that one was pretty awful to subject a kid to. So I actually apologized to this guy years later on facebook. I remember him saying something along the lines of, I've learned to let that go and I'm in a good place, but you should let that go as well. So it was very sweet of him to say that. It didn't leave long lasting scars, thankfully. And he said you should let go as well. So I was like, thanks for saying that man. I'm glad you're well.

We conclude our uber-geeky conversation with neuropsychologist and dharma teacher Rick Hanson this week, exploring what might be happening in the run-up to the transforming moment of nirvana. In the Theravada tradition of Buddhism the moment or nirvana (or nibbana as it’s called in that tradition), and even the period leading up to it, is spiritually transformative. Using one common map of the experiences leading up to nirvana–the 8 jhanas–Rick explains what he thinks might be happening in the brain as it approaches the “event horizon” of nibbana. He also uses the metaphor of eddies in a stream to explain the way that experience arises on a moment-by-moment basis, through the firing of neural coalitions in the brain. He also explores the parallels between the eddies of experience and self in our subjective experience with the material world. This is part 3 of a three-part series. Listen to part 1, A Crash Course in Applied Neurodharma and part 2, Self is a Network Phenomenon.

This week, we’re joined by trained Neuropsychologist and Theravada Buddhist teacher, Rick Hanson, to explore what he calls “applied Neurodharma.” We begin by exploring the 1st noble truth of suffering, but from the perspective of evolutionary neurobiology. In other words, why does it appear that we’re hard-wired to suffer, and what are the mechanisms behind it? And just as in the 4 noble truths, where we start with the diagnosis and end with a prescription, after exploring the 1st noble truth, Rick shares some suggestions for training the mind to overcome some of the hardwired tendencies we have to fixate on the negative. These suggestions come both from the Buddhist tradition, as well as directly from what we know of the distributed nervous system (and the Brain) from modern-day neuroscience. This is part 1 of a three-part series. Listen to part 2, Self is a Network Phenomenon and part 3, Eddies in the Stream. Episode Links: Wise Brain ( http://www.wisebrain.org ) Buddha’s Brain: The Practical Neuroscience of Happiness, Love, and Wisdom ( http://bit.ly/J4gPr )
We’re joined again by Neuropsychologist and Theravada teacher, Rick Hanson. This time we explore the Buddhist proposition of anatta, or selflessness, from the point of view of neuroscience and the brain. Rick explores whether a self actually exists using the following 4 core attributes of how a self is often defined: 1. It is unified & coherent 2. It is stable & enduring 3. It is independent 4. It is the whole of experience Looking at current research on how the self manifests in the brain, as what Hanson calls a “network phenomenon”, he deconstructs each of these four attributes, arguing that “self is not special inside the brain.” This is part 2 of a three-part series. Listen to part 1, A Crash Course in Applied Neurodharma and part 3, Eddies in the Stream.
