We spend a truly unreasonable amount of time on the fact that Tharion got wet and grew zero fins, Aidas casually admits he's known about Helena's salt therapy room this whole time (so what was House of Sky and Breath even FOR), and the Golden Prince of Hel strolls out and goes "welcome, son" like that's a normal thing to say. Meanwhile, Ithan is out here trying to resurrect his voodoo doll wolf alpha, Ruhn and Lidia are doing whatever that was in the cave, and Bryce becomes Queen of literally everything before deciding that prophecies just mean whatever you want them to mean — which, respectfully, is not how that works. Oh, and the Autumn King is dead. Two kings down, too many questions to count.

Before there was prayer, before there was song, before there was language, there was breath. Across ancient traditions, breath and spirit were understood to be one and the same, revealing air as one of the most intimate ways we experience the sacred.

In the day to day grind of our life, it is very easy to loose sight of things we are grateful for. The truth is that no matter how bad things are, no matter the struggle, there is still room for gratitude. Through gratitude comes joy and joy is the path to being in love with our life. One breath at a time.

“Take in your final breath before your first new one.”  Those were the words Jillian heard before her double lung transplant—words that would mark the end of one life chapter and the beginning of another. Jillian is 34 years old, living with cystic fibrosis, and a double lung transplant recipient. Her story is one of resilience, loss, hope, and purpose. From being diagnosed at birth to navigating adulthood, Jillian has faced more than most, but she continues to show up for her life and for others in the cystic fibrosis community. Jillian shares what it was like growing up with CF, supported by family and shaped by early connections within the community. She reflects on how advocates like Emily Schaller and the Rock CF Foundation influenced her outlook and helped her feel less alone. We also talk about her college years, what it meant to pursue independence while managing a complex disease, and how life shifted as her health declined into end-stage lung failure. Jillian walks us through the transplant process, not just medically, but emotionally—the fear, the uncertainty, and the strength it takes to keep going. One of the most profound parts of Jillian's story is the loss of her twin brother. She opens up about that grief and how it continues to shape her perspective, her resilience, and her compassion for others. Throughout it all, Jillian emphasizes the importance of support systems and mental health—especially during the transplant journey. No one goes through something like this alone, and her story is a reminder of how critical connection and care truly are. Today, Jillian looks toward the future with hope. She shares her dreams of building a family, continuing her advocacy work, and expanding the impact of the nonprofit she founded, Jillian's Jay Walkers Organization. Her story is not just about survival—it's about living with intention, honoring loss, and creating something meaningful from it all.

What if the most profound spiritual teaching available to you has been happening every moment of your life?In this episode, Kevin explores a deceptively simple question:Why can't you hold your breath long enough to die?At first glance, the answer appears obvious. Biology tells us the autonomic nervous system takes over. The body breathes whether we consciously choose to or not. But what if that explanation only describes the mechanism and not the mystery?This conversation moves far beyond physiology and into a direct investigation of consciousness itself.Why can human beings intentionally damage the body in countless ways, yet remain unable to simply decide to stop breathing forever? What intelligence overrides conscious will? What force continues choosing life when the mind attempts to choose otherwise?Kevin examines the possibility that breath is more than a biological function. Drawing from ancient wisdom traditions, contemplative philosophy, mysticism, and direct observation, he explores the idea that breath may be the bridge between the visible and the invisible - the interface through which consciousness animates the human experience.Along the way, he investigates the relationship between awareness and identity, the body and the self, the dream and the dreamer. From yogic teachings and indigenous traditions to the linguistic mysteries surrounding ancient spiritual texts, this episode challenges listeners to reconsider assumptions about who they are and what it means to be alive.The discussion also revisits one of Kevin's favorite themes: the dream analogy.Every night the world disappears. Your job disappears. Your relationships disappear. Your problems disappear. Yet something remains. Something witnesses the absence of the waking world and the appearance of the dream world. What is that presence? And how is it connected to the awareness experiencing this moment right now?If consciousness comes first, if the body is more like an avatar than an identity, then breath becomes something extraordinary. It becomes the handshake between the dreamer and the dream. The power source behind the character. The evidence that life is happening independent of the story we tell about ourselves.This episode is not an argument, a doctrine, or a belief system. It is an invitation to investigate.To sit quietly.To observe.To notice that breathing is already happening.And then to ask a question that has echoed through every authentic spiritual tradition:Who is breathing?Not intellectually.Not philosophically.But directly.Because perhaps the answer you've been searching for has been arriving with every breath since the day this body first opened its eyes.

Matt Spiegel and Laurence Holmes discussed Cubs manager Craig Counsell's ejection in his club's 9-3 win against the Rockies on Thursday. Counsell had a good reason to be angry, and the guys liked seeing him get kicked out.

When we sit down to meditate, we are trying to get to a place of stillness, calm, and silence to easier place ourselves in the present moment. In the present moment, we gain clarity and balance and one way into that place of calm is silence. This meditation hopes to assist the meditator to get to that place. Listen to the silence. One breath at a time.

Recorded live before a full audience at Sauna Days 2025, this special episode of Sauna Talk brings together four authors, educators, and lifelong students of human experience for a conversation that moves well beyond sauna itself. Joining me are Garrett Conover, author of Sauna Magic; Jesse Coomer, author and educator in breathwork and cold exposure; Harvey Martin, author of Breathe, Focus, Excel and Without Words; and myself, Glenn Auerbach, author of Sauna Build from Start to Finish. Together, we explore the experiences, obsessions, and questions that led each of us to write books and dedicate years of our lives to sharing what we've learned. Our discussion ranges from sauna culture, cold plunging, breathwork, athletics, coaching, and creativity to broader questions about wellness, personal growth, and what it means to live an examined life. We talk about the tension between science and intuition, the limits of protocols and optimization, and why authentic experiences often teach us more than information alone. Along the way, we reflect on how writing changes the writer, how teaching changes the teacher, and how books become snapshots of who we were at a particular moment in our own journeys. The conversation is candid, thoughtful, and at times deeply personal. Rather than presenting ourselves as experts with all the answers, we share stories of uncertainty, evolution, mistakes, and discovery. Whether discussing sauna, breath, cold exposure, nervous system regulation, or the search for meaning and connection in modern life, a common theme emerges: the most valuable lessons often come not from information, but from direct experience. If you've ever wondered why practices like sauna, breathwork, cold immersion, and time in nature can have such a profound impact on how we feel, think, and connect with ourselves and others, you'll find plenty to reflect on in this conversation. Recorded in the Great Lake Room at Sauna Days 2025, this is a live authors panel about writing, learning, teaching, and the lifelong pursuit of awareness, presence, and authentic human connection.

Send us Fan MailToday I'm sitting down with Charlie Baldwin — a breathwork and meditation teacher with the Art of Living Foundation, over 1,000 hours of teaching experience, and a real gift for bringing these practices to people who never thought they'd be interested. He's taught in prisons, firehouses, universities, and retreat centers in the Blue Ridge Mountains, and he has a way of making ancient wisdom feel completely relevant to modern life. I really loved this conversation.Charlie's path began with a book his mom left in his dorm room — Eckhart Tolle's A New Earth — and a breathwork retreat he almost didn't go to when he was considering dropping out of college. Within six weeks of beginning a daily practice, everything shifted: more energy, more confidence, and the overwhelming things in life became manageable. Nine years of teaching later, he is one of the most thoughtful and non-dogmatic voices in this space.What we cover:Charlie's personal origin story — how a book his mom left in his dorm room and a retreat he nearly skipped changed the entire direction of his lifeBreathwork in law enforcement — how Charlie and a fellow Art of Living teacher began offering programs to community leaders in North Carolina, how the police chief had a profound experience, and why this demographic has become so receptive to these practices right nowSky Breath Meditation (Sudarshan Kriya) — the rhythmic breathing practice Charlie has taught for nine years, featured in James Nestor's book Breath, and what makes it different from other breathwork approachesTechnology, overstimulation & Vata imbalance — a rich conversation about how the optimization of social media for endless scrolling has created widespread nervous system dysregulation, and why breathwork is one of the most powerful resets available to usApps vs. in-person learning — where technology genuinely helps people enter a practice, and why certain teachings carry an energetic transmission that cannot be fully replicated by an appWhy wellness habits don't stick — the two things Charlie has seen make the biggest difference: community and the willingness to have faith before proof arrivesThe breath-emotion connection — the simple but profound insight that every emotion has a corresponding rhythm of breath, and that this street runs both ways: we can use the breath to shift our emotional state, not just the other way aroundThe straw breath — Charlie leads us through a beautiful, portable breathwork practice specifically designed for anxiety and overwhelm.

In this episode of Be Truly Heard, Anne Leatherland challenges the idea that vocal technique somehow gets in the way of authenticity. Her message is clear: technique is not the enemy of authenticity, disembodied technique is. She explores the difference between sounding polished and sounding powerful, showing that real authority does not come from copying someone else or performing confidence on the surface. Instead, it comes from developing vocal skills that are embodied, aligned with who you are, and used in service of the message you want to share. Anne explains why simply being “natural” is not always enough, especially when you need your voice to carry authority, emotion and clarity in higher-stakes situations. She looks at how speakers can learn, practise and embody vocal skills so that they become second nature, allowing confidence to come from the inside rather than being acted out. Through examples from public speaking, acting, singing and even sport, she shows that mastery creates ease – and that when self and skill work together, your voice can sound both authentic and powerful. Key TakeawaysTechnique is not the problem, disconnected technique is.Anne argues that learning vocal skills does not make you fake. The real issue is when technique is layered on from the outside without being integrated into your body, your message and your sense of self. Authenticity is not the same as simply “being natural”.Sometimes your natural way of speaking is not yet equipped with the tools needed for the situation you are in. Vocal development is about building skills that help you express yourself more clearly and effectively, not becoming someone else. Copying someone else rarely creates real presence.Trying to sound like a speaker you admire may give you surface-level polish, but it disconnects you from your own values, energy and message. Anne prefers the idea of modelling rather than copying, trying something out in your own voice to see whether it fits. Powerful speaking is believable speaking.A highly rehearsed presentation can sound slick, but if it feels rigid or insincere, audiences will notice. What people respond to most is when a speaker sounds real, emotionally connected and genuinely present. Skill helps you stay grounded when emotion is involved.Anne shares the example of a client preparing for an important keynote who became emotional during one section of the talk. By restructuring the content and using vocal tools to reset, the client was able to speak with honesty and control, rather than being overwhelmed. Natural authority depends on a range of vocal skills.Pitch variety, emphasis, pacing, clarity, tone and breath all help an audience process what you are saying and feel connected to it. These skills support authority by making your message easier to understand and more engaging to hear. Breath and emotional state are closely linked.The way you breathe communicates a great deal about how steady or unsettled you feel. Learning how to regulate breath and voice together helps you sound calm and grounded, even when you are not feeling completely steady underneath. Embodied skill is what makes things look effortless.Whether it is a skater, singer, actor or speaker, what looks easy on the outside is nearly always the result of years of learning and practice. Vocal confidence works in the same way: mastery creates ease. True confidence comes from skill and self working together.When your voice responds skilfully, naturally and as a part of you, you no longer have to act confident. Confidence becomes something internal, supported by trust in your own ability and by skills you can rely on. Best Moments* “Technique is not the enemy of authenticity. Disembodied technique is.” * “The real aim is to learn appropriate techniques and then embody them.” * “Our natural self might not have the skills that we need.” * “You could become a copy of a copy, and who wants that?” * “To me, powerful is being real.” * “If you were to just let that go and behave completely naturally, then the emotions would overcome you every time.” * “Mastery creates ease in doing something, but it also looks easy on the outside.” * “When skill and self work together, you no longer have to perform confidence.” About the HostWith over 28 years' experience, Anne Leatherland helps clients develop vocal confidence and personal growth. Her holistic approach bridges science, education and the performing arts, supporting women to be truly heard in business.Find out more: https://anneleatherland.co.uk/

In this episode of the Daughters of the Moon Podcast, we welcome Spencer Delisle for a deep exploration into the nature of the human mind, emotions, and breath as a gateway to inner reset and awareness.We explore what it means to “defrag” the human system—like a spring cleaning for consciousness—releasing emotional resistance, understanding the laws of the mind, and observing how we exist within our own patterns of thought, feeling, and perception. Spencer shares insights into mental and emotional resets, and how awareness becomes the turning point for transformation.Together, we dive into the ancient science of breath, including Kriya practices, and how breathwork supports nervous system regulation, emotional release, and a deeper sense of inner stability. The conversation weaves together science, spirituality, and lived experience to illuminate how mind, body, and breath are intimately connected.At its core, this episode is about simplicity and return: breath as anchor, awareness as doorway, and presence as the reset code for life itself.

How much time do we spend trying to think our way back to our creativity? I've done it for years. Sitting with the question, turning it over, trying to figure out the next piece or why things feel stuck. And sometimes that works. But over the last eight months I've been doing something very different and the shift in my confidence, my ideas and the opportunities coming my way has honestly made me stop and pinch myself. In today's episode, I'm talking about sound, movement and breath, and how leaning into these has reset something in me I didn't even know needed resetting.   THE CREATIVE RESET RETREAT Join us for a two-day escape in the Shropshire Hills for artists and creatives. Think sound baths, breathwork, shamanic drumming, movement, and two full days away from the noise.

In this episode of Living in Step with the Holy Spirit, Bruce Downes reflects on Ezekiel 37 and the valley of dry bones.There are seasons when life looks fine on the outside, but inside something feels dry. We keep going, meet responsibilities, pray, serve, and show up, yet beneath the surface our hearts may feel weary, flat, discouraged, or drained.The vision of Ezekiel is deliberately confronting. The valley is full of bones, and they are very dry. Humanly speaking, there is no future there. But God asks Ezekiel, “Can these bones live?”That question is not only about bones. It is about hope. It is about whether the Holy Spirit can still bring life to the places we have quietly given up on.Bruce reminds us that the bones did not restore themselves and the valley did not fix itself. Life came when the breath of God entered what was dead.Today's invitation is to bring the dry place in your life before God, not with pressure or demand, but with openness. The same Spirit who raised Christ from the dead has not lost His power.Watch today's devotional here: BruceDownes.orgTo receive the Living in Step with the Holy Spirit eBook, visit: [https://brucedownes.org/ec/liswths_ebook/]

Did you know that one singer secretly voiced some of the biggest pop hits of the 1970s — all at the same time? Most people have no idea who he was.In this fascinating episode of A Breath of Fresh Air, Sandy Kaye chats with legendary British session singer Tony Burrows, the man behind an astonishing string of international hits including Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes), My Baby Loves Lovin', Gimme Dat Ding, United We Stand and many more.Tony reveals the incredible story behind his unique career as one of Britain's most in-demand studio vocalists during the golden age of pop music. While audiences believed these were all separate bands, Tony was often the lead voice behind them all — a situation so unusual that at one point he famously appeared multiple times on Top of the Pops performing with different “groups” on the same show.In this warm and revealing conversation, Tony shares how he deliberately chose life as a studio singer over the pressures of touring and fame, allowing him to become one of the music industry's best-kept secrets. He explains why he never wanted to tour with Edison Lighthouse, how he negotiated royalties that still pay today, and why he believes TikTok has helped introduce Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes) to a whole new generation of listeners.Tony also opens up about:Recording the smash hit Gimme Dat Ding in just two takesWhy United We Stand still resonates so strongly todayTouring with The Beatles during the height of BeatlemaniaSinging backing vocals for Elton John, Rod Stewart and Cliff RichardHis contribution to Elton's iconic Tiny DancerThe bizarre moment the BBC reportedly banned him from appearing on televisionThe real story behind Edison Lighthouse and the many studio “bands” of the eraWhy he became more famous in America than in his native UKThere are wonderful behind-the-scenes stories throughout this interview, including Tony's memories of working nonstop in London recording studios, travelling anonymously on the Tube while his songs dominated radio stations worldwide, and the surreal experience of hearing modern audiences rediscover his music decades later through social media.Despite being connected to an extraordinary catalogue of timeless hits, Tony remains remarkably humble and funny throughout the conversation, reflecting on a career that helped shape the sound of classic pop music.If you love '60s and '70s music, studio session stories, classic pop craftsmanship and discovering the hidden figures behind famous songs, this episode is an absolute treat.Listen now to hear the remarkable untold story of the voice behind some of the biggest hits of a generation.

Kōgetsu Mok leads us through a very powerful breakdown of the first of the Four Foundations of Mindfulness: the breath. How does breathing help us to come home to our bodies, our lives, and ourselves? We can maybe see how something as ordinary as the breath can become a doorway to intimacy, humility, connection, and freedom.Not for enlightenment.Not to unravel emptiness.Not to grok some complicated philosophy.Just breathing.

How is trauma stored in the body?Josh Trent welcomes double board-certified physician, Dr. Aimie Apigian, to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 820, to reveal the connection between neuroscience, functional medicine, and attachment theory, how trauma becomes a physiological pattern stored in the body, and why healing trauma can become easy when we understand how it forms.

Professor Michael Casey on Playful Learning, Trust, Breath, and Real-World Jiu-Jitsu Host Pete Deeley interviews Professor Michael Casey on why jiu-jitsu learning should start relaxed and playful, noting that fun and visible improvement keep both kids and adults training. Casey describes how he introduced his son Declan through play, community support, and avoiding "nagging dad" behavior, later adding hands-on coaching and emphasizing position before submission. They discuss building trust in a gym, safety culture, and how breathing and conscious pauses expand the space between emotion and reaction, improving self-control and maturity. Casey contrasts sport and self-defense approaches, arguing honesty about goals matters and that positional control often outweighs submissions in real-world contexts like healthcare or law enforcement.

So often, in our lives, we get bogged down in the negative thinking so much that we can convince ourselves that nothing good will ever happen, the the only thing possible is disappointment. This is because over time we have convinced ourselves to only believe in the negative. But there is another side of possibility and in there lies all the hope and good we can see in our live. The only thing that changes is what we choose to believe in. This meditation hopes to help the meditator shift their focus into the possibility of good.

What does a dedicated meditation practice look like off the cushion and in the real world? On this episode of Men Talking Mindfulness, hosts Jon Macaskill and Will Schneider sit down with Chris Lee... former Green Beret, 18 Delta medic, author of Beyond the Battlefield, and newly signed president of Machine Mentality alongside Nick Lavery. Chris came on to talk about why meditation is the quiet superpower that most men keep putting off, and what actually changed when he stopped treating it like a checkbox.Chris shares his walking meditation practice (72 steps per lap in his backyard, nearly killed the grass), the moment he realized he'd been matching his breath to his pace instead of his pace to his breath, and why flipping that became a metaphor for his whole life. He talks about the shift from knife-handing his daughters to being present during driving lessons, the self-talk change that cracked everything open, and a psychedelic-assisted therapy session where he heard: stop striving for peace, just be peace.Jon shares his own meditation gap... learning the practice in 2015, dropping off, and coming back in 2017 when his newborn daughter's nighttime feedings forced him to rediscover the tool. Will talks about teaching non-doing meditation to high performers in New York and why you'll never out-clever your own mind.The episode gets practical with the five-minute rule, the gym analogy for beginners (start with 45 seconds, not an hour), and two responses to common meditation pushback that are worth remembering: "I can't quiet my mind" is like saying "I'm too dirty to take a shower," and the deadlift analogy for people who think sitting still is a waste of time. Chris closes by guiding a liquid light body scan meditation.What you'll hear in this episode:Chris's walking meditation practice and matching pace to breath as a life metaphorThe self-talk shift: being gentle when your mind wandersHow meditation changed Chris's parenting with two daughtersJon's nighttime feeding story and rediscovering the toolThe five-minute rule and why 45 seconds is a great place to start"I can't quiet my mind" = "I'm too dirty to take a shower"The deadlift analogy for meditation skepticsNon-doing meditation and why fighting your mind gives it controlPeace as a reservoir, not a mountaintopSleep, alcohol, the Brick device, and variables that affect your practiceCommunity and accountability for sustaining a meditation habitGuided liquid light body scan meditationChris's book: Beyond the Battlefield (available now) Chris's upcoming book: Beyond the Serpent (early 2026) Chris on Instagram/TikTok: @coach_chris.lee Machine Mentality with Nick LaveryFull episode: https://pod.fo/e/34fabfText MTM to 33777 for updates on new episodes, the A2A course, and resources from Focus Now Training.Jon's book, DIAL in Your Leadership: 4 Non-negotiables for Leading with Clarity, Trust, and Purpose, is available now on Amazon. https://a.co/d/0hYwI2SzFollow Men Talking Mindfulness, Jon Macaskill, and Will Schneider for more.Hosted on Ausha.

In between stimulus and response, there is a space. There is a space to be found in between our thoughts. There is a space between inhale and exhale. We call this place The Gap. The gap is where we feel present and aware. Not thinking, not worrying, just absorbing and observing, just living in that space of pure conscious awareness. This meditation aims to help the meditator find their way into that space through practice of breath.

Aaron Judge's injury uncertainty becomes the focus as Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to the Yankees still searching for a complete diagnosis. With Judge undergoing more imaging and Aaron Boone offering no firm update, the conversation turns to why the lack of clarity is more concerning than comforting. Evan and Tiki break down the strange nature of the issue, including concerns about a possible upper rib or shoulder related problem, why the Yankees have not yet placed Judge on the IL, and how the Knicks' Finals run has pushed what would normally be a massive Yankees story slightly under the radar.

For many families, going home from the hospital feels like the finish line. But what happens when the emotional impact of a medical experience lingers long after discharge? On this episode of Inside the Children's Hospital, Katie Taylor sits down with Jen Aspengren, founder of Alongside Network, to discuss pediatric medical traumatic stress (PMTS), a common yet often overlooked experience that affects children, parents, siblings, and caregivers following serious medical events. Jen shares her family's journey after her infant son underwent life-saving airway surgery at just seven months old. While his physical recovery went well, the emotional effects lasted for years, leading Jen to discover a significant gap in support for families navigating life after hospitalization. Together, Katie and Jen explore: Jen's son's diagnosis of congenital subglottic stenosis and emergency airway surgery The unexpected emotional toll that followed after returning home What pediatric medical traumatic stress (PMTS) is and how it affects the entire family Common signs of traumatic stress in children, parents, and caregivers Why many families feel isolated after discharge despite receiving excellent medical care The importance of validation, community, and coping skills during recovery How small moments of connection from healthcare providers can build trust and resilience The impact of emotional support on long-term health outcomes and medical adherence How Alongside Network is helping families and healthcare providers better navigate medical trauma Jen also shares practical insights for healthcare professionals, highlighting how simple actions—such as a follow-up phone call or a few moments of acknowledgment—can make a lasting difference for families facing difficult diagnoses and hospitalizations. This conversation is a powerful reminder that healing doesn't end when a child leaves the hospital. Supporting the emotional well-being of children, parents, and caregivers is an essential part of recovery. About Our Guest Jen Aspengren Jen Aspengren is the founder of Alongside Network, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping families and healthcare providers address pediatric medical traumatic stress.
