Why is it that sometimes the things that are supposed to help us feel calm actually make us feel more anxious instead? In this mini-episode, Dr. Aimie explores why this happens, expanding on her conversation with Dr. Sue Carter from Episode 125. She answers therapist Sarah's question about why some people struggle with relaxation techniques and reveals the surprising science behind it. You'll hear more on: Why oxytocin is called "nature's fire extinguisher" and how it helps you heal How oxytocin and vasopressin work together (not against each other!) Why past difficult experiences can make your body think "quiet time" is dangerous How your brain's control center decides if you're safe or not Simple ways to feel safer in your body before trying relaxation techniques If you're a practitioner working with clients who struggle with calming techniques or if you've ever wondered why meditation or mindfulness makes you feel worse instead of better, this episode explains what's happening in the body and gives practical ways to work with it instead of against it. To hear the full episode and learn more about how stress hormones affect healing, head over to Episode 125: Why the Mind & Body Can't Heal Without Oxytocin with Dr. Sue Carter.

Modern Parenting isn't a cake walk. Whether it's a toddler throwing a tantrum in the candy aisle or a teenager's emotional outburst after a heated disagreement, there are moments when every parent feels the urge to react strongly. The urge to escalate comes from a natural place — frustration, fear, or a desire for control. But escalation — yelling or reacting emotionally — rarely leads to a constructive outcome. In fact, it often makes things worse. Yelling doesn't help in parenting, at least not in the long term. While it might grab a child's attention in the moment, it often leads to – fear instead of understanding, emotional distance, poor behavior, or even escalation. So, when such tough parenting moment arise, how to not lose our calm? In today's episode, we will talk about how to handle hard moments with grace and strength.Related topics:Transformational Vocabularyhttps://spotifycreators-web.app.link/e/pfHz6jp9zTbPower of Pausehttps://spotifycreators-web.app.link/e/yR6ZjZpaATbFeel free to reach out to me:Instagram: alpanabapatTwitter: alpana_deoFacebook: MothersGurukulLinkedln: Alpana DeoBlog: www.mothersgurukul.com

Rasa, meaning “nectar” or “essence,” captures the richness of life's emotional experiences, much like the flavours of a meal. Just as the Gunas influence taste...Rajas being too intense, Tamas too dull, and Sattva offering the perfect balance...our emotions shape our human experience. As Robert Svoboda says, “Existence without juice is dry and tasteless.”Tantric tradition recognizes nine Rasas, the core emotional flavors of life: Disgust, Fear, Anger, Sadness, Love, Courage, Wonder, Joy, and Calmness. Each Rasa is born from an underlying Bhava, our true feeling state, giving depth and meaning to our experiences.In this practice, we explore these Rasas through movement, allowing emotions to surface and shift naturally. By embracing the full spectrum of our emotions with awareness and courage, we open to greater self-understanding and fulfillment. Let yourself fully taste, savour, and express the richness of your inner landscape.To read more and to practice with Zephyr Wildman, click here. To support Zephyr Yoga Podcast, donate here.

PHIL WILSON received an honors degree in mathematics in 1970 and then spent 5 years studying the history and philosophy of mathematics in graduate school. In 1970, he had an out-of-body experience and a kundalini awakening. These two incidents made Phil very sensitive and propelled him from the world of mathematics into the world of Holistic Health. Phil became a pioneer in the 1970s, promoting fasting, herbs, and a pure diet. In 1980, he opened a health food store and health food distribution company, focusing on selling cutting-edge nutritional products and massage tools to over 1,100 health food stores and health professionals monthly. In 2002, Phil was introduced to the Relax Far Infrared Sauna. He has spent the last 22 years educating many about not only the benefits of Far Infrared Light but also the incredible difference between the light emitted from the Relax Sauna and the frequency of light energy emitted by other good infrared saunas. We not only discuss the benefits of the latest in sauna technology, but the concept of living in the now, the parasympathetic nervous system and the importance of connection to the Earth and other people. Phil considers the Relax Sauna the pinnacle of all the products he has ever promoted that promote health and freedom for the individual. He has exhibited the Relax Sauna at over 500 conferences, and out of the 150,000 who have experienced it at conferences, he has seen at least 30,000 – 40,000 minor or significant miracles. Phil's talks and interviews are highly informative, laced with humor and wisdom, and uplifting! Phil Wilson's journey. His dive into holistic health following a transformative experience has shaped his unique outlook. Phil's pioneering work with cutting-edge nutritional products and especially the Relax Far Infrared Sauna stands out. Over 6000 units sold speaks to his impact in the field. His stories of the thousands who've experienced what he calls "miracles" through the sauna are inspiring. phil@relaxsunas.com relaxsaunas.com
In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explore how the auditory and vestibular (balance) systems are essential for enhancing learning and improving focus. I explain how the auditory system captures sound waves and how the brain interprets these signals to make sense of the environment. I also discuss the use of white noise and binaural beats to support brain states conducive to learning, focus and relaxation. Additionally, I explain how the vestibular system helps maintain balance and examine practical tools to enhance auditory learning, cognitive performance and mood.

As a former "well-caffeinated and chardonnay working mom," Julie describes how her alcohol dependence developed while balancing career demands with raising a young daughter.The conversation explores how serious health challenges—including debilitating vertigo—forced Julie to stop drinking and began her recovery, initially through audiobooks and podcasts like The Bubble Hour while isolated "in the corner of her sectional."Key Insights on Recovery:Identity Transformation: Julie discusses how sobriety required creating a new identity after leaving her tenured teaching position, leading to certification as both a professional and recovery coach.Emotional Regulation: Learn practical techniques for managing emotions, including mindfulness, journaling, and "adaptive thinking"—giving the appropriate amount of time, space, and energy to situations.Creativity in Recovery: Discover how breaking free from addiction cycles unleashes creative potential, providing the "clarity, bandwidth, and energy" needed to envision and build a fulfilling life.Midlife Challenges: The episode addresses how perimenopause, career dissatisfaction, and relationship issues often intersect with recovery journeys, creating what Julie calls a "shitty planet alignment."Julie shares her journey of professional reinvention, becoming a mental health trainer and speaker who helps others develop resilience and adaptability.

MOM'S UNDER STRESS BEST GIFTS For this Mother's Day give your mom the gift of serenity, calmness and peace for her Spring Rejuvenation day. I got this idea from a conversation with Kari Warberg Block who recently relinquished her CEO responsibilities to a new hire, the CEO for EARTHKIND. KARI is the FOUNDER and ( was CEO) of EARTHKIND. ( READ MORE about her progressive NON POISONOUS Rodent product here.) https://www.kariwarbergblock.com/forging-new-paths-embracing-change-one-step-at-a-time/ One of the first steps that Kari took in relinquishing the CEO position was to rejuvenate herself. Which is what this podcast is about to give my listeners ideas to help your mom enjoy serenity, peace and calmness on her special day. As her transition to being the rejuvenated Kari, mom, grandmother, wife “new adventure woman”, she took an intense, all natural cleansing treatment at Optimum Health in Austin,Texas https://www.optimumhealth.org/ohi-austin The focus is how to bring a balance in your life by eating clean food. Kari says..“The food, 100% raw and plant-based, was absolutely delicious. Even the seven days of juice fasting—spread across the three weeks—wasn't as hard as I imagined. After the initial adjustment, I wasn't hungry, and my energy skyrocketed.” If the raw food vegetables might be too much for mom ..here are some suggestions using all ORGANIC products: For the breakfast or brunch in bed: organic strawberry's topped on organic plain yogurt, sprinkled with almonds, drizzled with local honey. Next a Brunch : grilled peasant bread, a slather of her favorite condiment, smashed avocado or HUMMUS. I like arugula to add flavor and color to the plate and the bread, organic cherry tomatoes for color and flavor. Why not add some festive bubbles: GRUET or non alcoholic sparking apple cider. Very festive. If a NATURAL setting appeals to her more, take her to a beautiful park with serene surroundings, a picnic lunch for ONE, and take her cell phone away. Last idea: buy her a DO IT YOURSELF spa treatment at home. Everyone leaves the house for hours and let her have peace and quiet at home. I tribute all these ideas to Kari as she gave me the inspiration for a peaceful, serene and calm Mother's Day when we had a nice talk about her own steps she is taking for her new life transition .

It's a deep inner knowing that doesn't need external validation.Fear-Based Instinct: Urgent, constricting, and reactive. Often rooted in past trauma or old survival patterns.How to Discern Your Intuition from Fear:Signs that you're being guided by true intuition: Calmness, clarity, expansiveness, and neutrality.Signs that you're operating from fear-based instinct: Panic, contraction, urgency, and seeking validation from others.Practical questions to ask yourself when faced with a strong inner signal:Does this feeling feel calm or urgent?Would this guidance still make sense without past pain or trauma?Is the thought looping or arriving with quiet confidence?The Role of Discernment in Decision Making:Why urgency in decision-making is a sign of fear, not intuition.How fear can prevent us from committing to the right things or following our true path.Commitment and fear of making the wrong choice: How to move past these fears to make aligned decisions.The Neurobiology of Intuition and Fear:Understanding how the brain and nervous system process fear vs. intuition.Fear-based instinct activates the amygdala (fight or flight), while intuition activates the default mode network and insula—areas associated with self-awareness and inner truth.Spiritual Discernment:Why intuition must include our humanity, not bypass it.How to recognize when spiritual "intuition" is actually avoidance or projection.Intuition should be rooted in humility, clarity, and care, not panic or ego.The Importance of Somatic Awareness:How your body can help you discern true intuition from fear.The body's response to fear and intuition: Fear feels tight, constricted, and urgent, while intuition feels expansive, calm, and grounded.Resources Mentioned in This Episode:Anywhere Clinic: A powerful mental health resource offering online psychiatric care, including ketamine therapy.

“If children feel safe, they can take risks, ask questions, make mistakes, learn to trust, share their feelings, and grow.” ~ Alfie Kohn SHOW NOTESEPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Children have a natural spiritual intuition that needs nurturing. Listening to children's experiences is crucial for their emotional development. Fear can impact children's spiritual perception and needs to be addressed. Encouraging imagination helps children connect with their spiritual gifts. Parental support is essential for children's spiritual growth Understanding emotions can improve communication with children. Calmness and breath can help in resolving conflicts.

Today's meditation is all about cultivating calm and mindfulness while driving. We've all experienced road rage, whether it's getting cut off in traffic or dealing with a slow driver in the fast lane. But our reactions can have consequences beyond the moment. They can affect our loved ones when we get home. Your foul mood will make them avoid you and if it becomes habitual, nobody might want to spend time with you. The strangers you encounter on the road will also be affected by your bad mood and could lead you to bigger problems like a severe accident. So let's take a deep breath and focus on bringing calm to our driving experiences.#mindfuldriving #roadrage #calmness #drivingmeditation #affirmations #controlyourreactions #safedriving #mindfulmovement #dailypracticeOur Sponsors:* Check out Rejoyn: https://www.rejoyn.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/find-your-daily-calm/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Panic is never a solution. In moments of crisis or uncertainty, it is easy to feel overwhelmed and reactive. By cultivating equanimity, we can sidestep panic and instead approach challenges with a level head. This doesn't mean we ignore our feelings but rather that we create a mental framework that allows us to address issues rationally and calmly. Connecting with our inner stillness can lead to clearer thinking and more effective decision-making. All sentient beings fundamentally desire to be happy, healthy, and free from suffering. Despite the diversity of our circumstances, we are united by this common aspiration. This understanding fosters compassion and empathy towards ourselves and others. It reminds us that behind every reaction, there is likely a story of struggle and desire for peace.

Beginner's mind is a Zen Buddhist principle of seeing everything as new, as it is, without preconception or expectation. It can be considered the simplest state but also the most advanced. Mind identifies, creates the illusion of separation, and focuses on survival of the individual body and psychological structure. But we can open to “big mind,” our true nature which has limited itself, as occurs in deep sleep and sometimes in meditation. We all experience freedom from the prison of ordinary mind at times in life—as the sun peeks through the clouds—because it is our nature. Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind is a book by Suzuki Roshi, who referred to beginner's mind as the “goal” of practice. Quotes from the book and from the American teacher Lee Lozowick are discussed. A matrix of practice is needed to hold beginner's mind, which is not something we can bring about. We can see that everything is transient, but we often don't see that we're always changing as well and that there is no solid self. Calmness arises as we give images in our mind a large spacious meadow, allowing them to come and go, which requires special effort. If we do not indulge our tendencies, ego will show us itself at deeper levels. Practice without gaining idea does not mean to have no purpose. Just to do something can be our purpose. If we have spiritual pride in our understanding, we will lose the characteristic of beginner's mind, which cuts though pride in the knowledge that everything comes from big mind. Vajra pride is unshakable self-esteem rooted in recognition of our true nature, which everyone has. True creativity comes from nothing. The greatest moments of creativity come when we forget what we know. Life continues to put us in new situations where we are beginners again.

In this episode of Mind Shift, Aaron and Erwin McManus reflect on their time in Mexico City, where the Mosaic community has grown from 60 to 225 attendees in a small art gallery space. They celebrate the resilience and teamwork of the community, highlighting how adversity has strengthened their bond. This theme of overcoming conflict and fostering unity extends into a broader discussion on leadership, negotiation, and personal growth.Erwin shares key insights into conflict resolution, emphasizing the importance of diffusing crises without escalating them. He explains how power should not be fought with power, advocating instead for humility and adaptability in leadership. Drawing from his experiences in South Dallas working with drug cartels, he illustrates the value of seeing the world from another person's perspective and finding solutions that benefit all parties involved.The conversation delves into different approaches to leadership, with Aaron and Erwin comparing their psychological assessments and how their personalities shape the way they navigate conflicts. Erwin underscores the necessity of self-awareness and emotional control, warning against letting ego drive decision-making. He shares his rules for conflict resolution—never be the bomb, avoid responding to conflict with aggression, and step away if you cannot present the best version of yourself.The discussion expands to leadership on a global scale, using the Trump-Zelensky interaction as an example of how conflicts could be better managed through strategic humility and gratitude. Erwin explains how simple acts of appreciation can de-escalate tension and shift the dynamic of a conversation. He stresses the importance of intention in leadership, urging leaders to focus on their motivations rather than striving for perfection.As the episode concludes, Aaron and Erwin hint at a multi-part series on conflict resolution, diving deeper into identifying destructive behaviors, navigating difficult situations, and fostering peace. They invite listeners to join the Mind Shiftcommunity for exclusive content and discussions, encouraging engagement with these vital leadership and personal growth lessons.

Here's the good news, my friends: On the other side of the discipline of stillness sits a feast of contentment for the starving soul. Our God promises to fill the cavernous void, cure our broken hearts, calm our anxiety, and quiet our chaos. And it begins with you and me choosing to sit in the Lord's presence. To look toward His hope. And be still.Leave a comment for Michele: https://incourage.me/?p=251253--For moments of bite-sized encouragement, the new DaySpring Daily Devotional Bible for Moms is just the ticket.

Pastor Jeremy | BFBC-Glendive | Sunday 2 Thessalonians 3:16 Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace always in every way. The Lord be with you all. ● Calmness, quietness, tranquility ● Lack of fighting or war ● Well-being and fullness of life. John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:27 (NLT) “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don't be troubled or afraid. John 14:27 (MSG) I'm leaving you well and whole. That's my parting gift to you. Peace. I don't leave you the way you're used to being left—feeling abandoned, bereft. So don't be upset. Don't be distraught. John 14:27 (Amp C) Peace I leave with you; My [own] peace I now give and bequeath to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. [Stop allowing yourselves to be agitated and disturbed; and do not permit yourselves to be fearful and intimidated and cowardly and unsettled.] Judges 6:24 - Gideon - The Lord is Peace ● Gideon was cowardly, unsettled, intimidated, and fearful before the presence of God showed up. ● After peace came...Gideon was still oppressed by the Midianites and his family still worshiping false gods...but he was no longer cowardly, unsettled, intimidated, or fearful. Peter ● John 13 Peter says he'll never deny Jesus ● John 18 Peter denies Jesus ● John 21:19 Peter is restored and told “follow me” ● Acts 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, etc. Peter not moved by crowds, the call, persecution, ignorance...he is no longer cowardly, unsettled, intimidated, or fearful. ● Gal 2 we see Peter has slipped back into a little bit of his old self and Paul calls him out.
I still remember the day my grandfather shared a profound lesson with me about managing anger, drawing from the timeless wisdom of Jewish teachings. His words, echoing the insights from "Orchos Tzaddikim" (Ways of the Righteous), painted anger not just as a mere emotion but as a disease of the soul that can unravel personal peace and tear apart relationships. Through this episode, we navigate the intricate paths of mastering anger, uncovering how this volatile emotion is equated with evil and even linked to purgatory within Jewish texts. Through personal stories and spiritual teachings, we discuss the importance of empathy, forgiveness, and the remarkable tradition of reciting Kaddish, as shared through a touching anecdote about my grandfather.As the conversation unfolds, we explore the detrimental effects of anger, not only on our spiritual and mental well-being but also on our interactions with others. Anger, often rooted in arrogance and wounded pride, can lead to irrational behavior and potential sin, as illustrated through the story of a frustrated driver who repeatedly rammed their car. We also emphasize the importance of how charity is given, highlighting that generosity is not merely about the monetary value but the spirit in which it is offered. Throughout the episode, we reflect on the teachings of the Mishnah, underscoring the value of patience and calmness, especially for those guiding others, and the broader social consequences of unchecked anger.The journey continues with a focus on forgiveness and personal transformation. We highlight the power of letting go of grudges and choosing happiness over being right, particularly in relationships. By sharing stories of turning hurt into prayer and the remarkable outcomes from unwavering faith, we showcase the transformative potential of aligning oneself with divine intentions. Through the lens of Rabbi Yisroel Salanter's teachings, we emphasize that real change starts within, impacting not just ourselves but our communities and the world at large. Join us on this inspiring exploration of mastering anger and fostering spiritual growth, where faith and resilience lead to extraordinary outcomes._____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)Recorded from a live audience presentation in the TORCH Centre - Levin Family Studios (B) in Houston, Texas on January 6, 2025.Released as Podcast on February 20, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

Our focus is on the critical journey individuals must undertake to reconnect with their inner wisdom, highlighting the challenge many face when seeking external validation or guidance instead of looking within. As we explore this theme, we emphasize the importance of embracing one's own expertise in navigating personal needs and feelings. Dr. Letterman introduces the concept of the nine pillars, a framework designed to help individuals realign with their internal landscape. By identifying and nurturing these pillars—self-awareness, sleep, nutrition, activity, play, connection to family and friends, work and purpose, spirituality, and the natural world—we can cultivate a holistic sense of well-being. The discussion elaborates on how attending to these areas fosters resilience and joy, particularly when faced with life's inevitable challenges. #anxiety #selfcare #mentalhealth #wellness #mindfulness #emotionalregulation #stressmanagement #innerpeace #personalgrowth #healing #coaching #therapy #psychology #neuroscience #communication #relationships #parenting #children #education #health #lifestyle #happiness #joy #fulfillment #purpose #meaning #spirituality #nature #connection #community #support #resilience #hope #inspiration #motivation #transformation #growthmindset #selfcompassion #selfacceptance #bodypositivity #mindfulliving #holistichealth #integrativehealth #lifestylemedicine #functionalmedicine #nutrition #exercise #sleep #play #family #friends #worklifebalance #boundaries #compassion #empathy #nonviolentcommunication #mbsr #act #dbt #cbt #GinaRyan #ACP #AnxietyCoachesPodcast Learn more about your ad choices.
