Podcasts about Centring

Embodiment coach and neuroscience educator Amanda Blake joins me for a thoughtful and engaging exploration of the science and practice of embodiment. We cover the ins and outs of body-oriented coaching, how to discuss embodiment without getting lost in jargon, and what it means to build “minimal trust.” Along the way, we tackle neuro-hype, research credibility (with a nod to Amy Cuddy and Wendy Palmer), and the delicate balance between theory and practice. Expect insights into empathy, embodied self-awareness, interoception, proprioception, centring, and the all-important “keystone” of becoming your best self. This conversation is warm, sharp, and packed with insights that bridge science, coaching, and real-world application.

When Bury FC was expelled from the Football League after 125 years, the government commissioned a fan-led review of football's financial stability. Centring the importance of football clubs to hundreds of local communities, it recommended tough new rules about governance and ownership of football clubs. Five years on and with both Labour and the Conservatives supporting the creation of a new regulator, Scunthorpe United has become a case study for why politicians think they need to step in. A succession of owners, a string of relegations and a more than gloomy balance book left the North Lincolnshire town wondering what life without its football club might look like. But the efforts of the local community led to a small piece of hope. For Radio 4, lifelong Scunthorpe fan and BBC political journalist (in that order) Jack Fenwick tells the inside story of how it all went so wrong and what happened next.Presenter and producer: Jack Fenwick

Got some feedback? Drop us a message!We sat down for a 1-2-1 solocast this week to discuss our views on managing external feedback and body image both in season and off season. This is a topic that has been raised by our listeners time and time again and we wanted to take the opportunity to discuss the things we have encountered, learned and implemented when it comes to receiving negative or discerning feedback and acknowledge how these scenarios might impact you as a person, an athlete and how you view your body and yourself.I'm this episode we discuss:- Body image both in a prep setting and off season and how that can impact you as an athlete and a person in day to day life;- Managing body image in normal settings;- Sexualisation and managing feedback around physique development;- Managing external feedback in relation to diet choices in different settings;- Having compassion and an understanding that what we do isn't “normal”;- Socially imposed expectations of the female body and what challenges that can impose when it comes to physique development;- Centring your communication from a place of passion rather than defence when it comes to being challenged about your decision to compete;And so much more.We really exposed much of our experiences in this podcast and it's a topic that has shaped both of our journeys when it comes to competing and managing day to day life. We truly hope the insight and advice will help you navigate your own exposure to similar situations and limit the impact of any negativity whether that be from an internal or external source.Make sure you keep up with us on social media for previews and details about upcoming guest speakers.Instagram: @thebackstagebikinipodcastHosts: @gracemannion_ | @jadeleahegartyAvailable on Spotify, Apple Podcast, Youtube and Amazon Music.

Join Mim and Lis as we hear an interview with two social workers from the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia. These passionate social workers discuss the crucial role of social work in family law cases. Their social work story explores how conducting child-centered assessments and gaining the child's perspective can shift parents' understanding of their child's experiences, and lead to resolutions focused on the child's needs. They highlight how social workers navigate complex issues of risk, development and emotion to advocate for children navigating parental separation and high-conflict disputes. Mim and Lis then unpack the story and the important work that these social workers do, drawing links between this work and wider social work practice.  p.s.

On this episode of Diary of a Kidney Warrior podcast, we feature the courageous experiences of young peritoneal dialysis patient, Emma Kearns. Emma shares her journey from her early kidney disease diagnosis through her life threatening battle with sepsis, kidney failure and ableist workspaces. The powerful story is not just about the trials and troubles, but also a narrative of resilience, courage, and determination. Centring on Emma's life post-kidney failure, we delve into her return to Northern Ireland for a transplant. A detour that included leaving behind her life in Liverpool and fearing the catheter surgery while adapting to dialysis. The emotional roller coaster of chronic kidney disease (CKD), the misconceptions surrounding dialysis, the mental toll of being tied to a machine, and balancing a semblance of normalcy become crucial topics of discussion. A further push into the narrative discusses the discomfort of 'drain pain', and the ever-present catheter, yet her relentless spirit and determination shine through. Emma's dedication to raise public awareness about kidney disease, fuelled by the TikTok community's support, is a key element spurring her to fight her health challenge with a brave face. Her resilience, strength, and optimism put on display for young individuals fighting similar battles. The broader discussion about ableist mindsets, the lack of understanding, empathy for young CKD patients, and the central role social media plays in connecting kidney disease patients globally is also tackled. Join us in this heartfelt conversation that not only encapsulates the harsh reality of CKD but also the inherent spirit of survival, support, and hope.   For updates and more, follow Dee Moore on:   Instagram: www.instagram.com/diaryofakidneywarrior  Facebook: www.facebook.com/diaryofakidneywarrior  Twitter: www.twitter.com/diaryofakidneyw  Tik Tok: @diaryofakidneywarrior  Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChGUfib7lu9eKENlLJ6lafw Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.co.uk/diaryofakidneywarrior/   Follow Emma Kearns Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/_thekidneychroniclesigsh=NGpidjU0bXgwb3dx   Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@_thekidneychronicles?_t=8klHphQ0ExU&_r=1   If you were affected by any of the issues raised in this episode contact:    Kidney Care UK   •           Website: www.kidneycarekuk.org •           Email: info@kidneycareuk.org •           Tel: 01420 541 424 •           Facebook: www.facebook.com/kidneycareuk.org •           Instagram: @kidneycareuk •           YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeqQTdAsEzXphqjHVtcTD-A   To sign up to receive the Kidney Matters Quarterly Magazine Email: info@kidneycareuk.org   Young Adult's Kidney Group (YAKG)   https://www.kidneycareuk.org/get-support/young-adult-kidney-group-yakg/  

My guest today is Mikaela de la Myco. I was drawn to the way she presents herself as a mother in the psychedelic space through her platform, Mama de la Myco. I had every intention in having a conversation with her about psychedelic parenting. However, I threw out all my questions out the window and followed Mikaela's energy; it was clear that Mikaela had so much to share with us about centring mothers, women, and ingenious voices in the psychedelic movement.She lends us a perspective around how the psychedelic mainstream movement is falling short, and the reality of how indigenous people are treated in the psychedelic industry. In addition, we talk about how mushrooms are helping mothers through the challenges of the postpartum period, and how psychedelics might be useful for families.Mikaela is currently pouring into the Mushrooms and Moms survey with support from Dr. Jim Fadiman and the Microdosing Institute. This project is surveying mothers and birthing people who consumed psilocybin mushrooms throughout their motherhood and parenting journey in order to accumulate a body of evidence for effects of psilocybin on birthing people, women and their children. If you're a mother or birthing person, please consider contributing to this, linked it in the show notes.Topics Covered:The intersection of medicine woman, psychedelic mom and sacred hoeWhat is MushWomb?What is a sacred hoe?Rematriating psychedelics, earth and social resourcesThe reality of how indigenous people are treated in the psychedelic industryGrassroots efforts to preserve indigenous wisdomHow mushrooms are helping moms through the postpartum periodCan psychedelics be for teenagers and families?How Mikaela overcame alcoholism with the help of mushroomsWhat is being discovered through the Mushrooms and Moms SurveryShow Links:PAX - LANA to save 15% Kanna Extract Co - LANA to save 10%Mushrooms and Moms Surverymushwomb.loveGetting to the RootBrittany Jade Wilson This episode was produced in collaboration with FWI Media.

It was lovely to have Lockie Phillips back this week for his fourth time on the podcast. We got to chatting about how he's feeling and what he's been up to since his big move across the country to the North West of Spain last summer, which I have been excited to talk to him about!  Unsurprisingly, he's been busy turning his new property into a super functional, horse-centric environment and learning how to manage best amidst some pretty wet weather conditions (think: Atlantic hurricanes). Throughout our discussion Lockie emphasized the Horse in Horsemanship, leading him to share some stories illustrating that prioritizing and considering the horse is still far from being a common value amongst equestrians, along with some neuroscience to contextualize why that is.  Our conversation ended with us both describing recent moments with our own horses, and talking about the kinds of interactions that become possible when we lean into cultivating true relationship with this incredible creatures. I hope this episode got you feeling and thinking as much as it did for me!  Lockie Phillips teaches deeply caring horse people to create emotionally balanced horses using science, empathy and feel. Emotional Horsemanship can be explored with online courses, online lessons, online coaching, international clinics and retreats in Spain. A retired pro-dancer, Lockie lives in North Western Spain and is a horse dad to 4 geldings.

Centring is not just for Christmas because…. it's a practice to help all of us whether we are celebrating this holiday period or not…it's equally a practice that could help all of us every day of the year.

It's the place we know we have to get back to when we're not feeling like ourselves. Bobby and Bridge chat and offer gifts a plenty of things you can do to help you back to Centre.

Centring your investment strategy around trust and your teams is an easy and effective way to supercharge your portfolio position. In this episode of the Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant sits down with Goose McGrath from Dashdot and Eva Loisance of Finni Mortgages to chat through the need for goal alignment, finding the best people in the industry, and giving trust upfront to create a positive and empowering environment for investors. They also introduce the concept of minimum viable freedom, a formula that helps investors calculate their desired level of financial freedom and plan their property portfolio accordingly. While buying a single property may not require a team, investors looking to build a portfolio and achieve long-term wealth creation would be well-versed to surround themselves with professionals who are squarely in their corner, whether that be finance and mortgage brokers, property strategists, or even portfolio growth partners.

James D'Souza talks to Oli Arnold of Vanlife Conversions, which converts vans into camper vans, about renovations and refurbishments on a smaller scale, and how you can apply the techniques he's learned to your own property investment portfolio. KEY TAKEAWAYS Creating a power team will give you the skill sets you need in order to turn properties into something wonderful. Living the life of a digital nomad has become very attractive. People are able to travel and work from anywhere, renting out their houses in order to provide income and experiencing life up close. The principles of renovating and flipping vans can also be applied to house renovations. It's the same fundamental business model. Centring the design around the place of comfort is always wise.

Vicki Pepperdine is in some of our favourite comedies, so - of course - we leapt at the chance to have her on the podcast. Vicki chats to Hannah about playing Princess Anne in The Windsors, working with Julia Davis, their "filthy" podcast Dear Joan and Jericha, and why not enough people have watched Getting On. In Jenny Off the Blocks, Jen chats to Kelly Gordon, executive lead for Netball England's NETBALLHer campaign, about sport for life and the barriers women face when it comes to sports participation. In Rated or Dated, we overpluck our eyebrows and crack open a Grolsch, because we're watching 1998's Sliding Doors.

Ciara Roberts brings you a series of guided meditations.  You can listen seated, laying down, on a train, in a plane, under a tree...make it work for you.Beginning with Arriving and Centring.The energies of Arrive. The energies of Centre.Arriving and centring into the contours of our physical form. Centring into the essence of the deepest inner truths we hold.Arriving and Centring is a practise Ciara experienced with long time yin yoga teacher, Sarah Lo. A useful way to expand our feelings of body. How we experience sitting, in physical form, within an entire cosmology - which can seem so very peculiar or abstract when we have not had direct experience of this sense of connection. This enduring vastness.It resides within each one of us. Without exception.We arrive into the landscape of body.We centre into the inner beingness - perhaps we could call this grounding in our Buddha self. Or tapping into the well of sustenance within. Our inner power. It whispers and willows much further than the constraints of body. Enjoy. Ciara Jean RobertsYoga teacher, Writer, Naturopathic Nutritional Therapisthttps://www.whollyaligned.com

His lifelong search for absolute truth started a long time ago in Europe in his teens, but sadly led to lots of cul-de-sacs and dead ends. He is in his mid-60s and believes he only found the real teachings when he touched Theravada Buddhism 10 years ago. Living and studying at Bodhinyana Monastery enabled him to finally find the real teachings. Good people with Metta sustained and nurtured him through the difficult years. His father, as an expression of Metta, often comes to mind and also his children who are young adults now. Isn't family some of our best teachers too, even when events don't go too well? He was fortunate to run into an ex-monk from the Thai Forest tradition in 2009,in Sydney, who had been one of Ajahn Chah's carers. Soon afterwards he discovered that all the teachings of the Buddha are very honest and thorough, and passed all experiential investigation. There are no loopholes in the Suttas and the Eightfold Path does gradually reduce suffering. He tried to blend Buddhist practice into a number of senior roles that he had in the Finance and Charity sectors in Sydney but soon realised that colleagues will only practice if they want to! He finds it a blessing to have Ajahn Brahmavamso as his preceptor and access to other marvellous teachers like Ajahn Brahmali, Bhante Sujato and Bhikkhu Bodhi. Such riches! His name, Mettaji comes from a monk in the time of the Buddha and translates as ”Victory through loving kindness.” That is the aspiration he wants to fulfill in his practice and in meeting anyone, anywhere.

Canyon claims this adds control and stability to calm the handling when things are getting rough at high speeds, or when you're tackling slow-paced technical sections of trail, improving, the brand says, the connection between your front and rear wheels.In this episode of the BikeRadar Podcast, technical editor in chief, Robin Weaver – who was among the first riders in the world to test the production version of the system – is grilled by technical editor Alex Evans to learn how the system works and whether its claimed benefits stack up in the real world.https://www.bikeradar.com/news/canyon-syntace-kis-self-centring-steering-stabilisation-system/ Hosted on Acast.

Colin McCartney is a pastor at Connect City Church and a seasoned leader who has spent years working for shalom in the urban heart of Toronto, Canada. In this talk from our UNITE ‘22 conference, Colin defines what a gospel centred on Jesus means and looks like in a distracted, violent, and politicized world. This talk will inspire you to make everything about Jesus. Colin challenges us to ensure that the living and knowable Jesus isn't being displaced by a politically co-opted or religiously codified Jesus at the centre of the Gospel.

Learning non-violence from a security guard's action.

Jesus invites us into this relational journey with God and each other as we go along, building God's kingdom together as a means that signifies our radical obedience and discipleship.

Learning non-violence from a security guard's action.

Making sure it means what we think it means.

Centring the narrative around a lively, erudite and thoroughly enjoyable history of one family from Malwa in Central India which held substantial land and various administrative offices in the Mughal empire and negotiated over several generations with three regimes - the Mughals, the Marathas and the British, Dr Chatterjee assembles a living, breathing world through her book, Negotiating Mughal Law: A Family of Landlords across Three Indian Empires. It is a classic history from below, populated with real people and colourful individuals in both spectacular and everyday situations which tells a riveting story even as it opens up many important questions for scholars and students of Mughal history and historical scholarship more broadly. In this episode of BIC Talks Dr. Prachi Deshpande talks to Dr. Nandini Chatterjee about the story of how she reconstructed a coherent archive to tell a micro-history of one family over such a long period of time and about it being a thought provoking meditation on the very nature of the historical archive.

In this episode, we spoke with Alessandra Pomarico about creating collaborative art for social change, both before and during the pandemic. The show begins by talking about friendship and different collectives in Italy and New York, before moving on to new ways of thinking which combine resistance and existence (re-existence). Centring re-existence in Latin American ideas and the Zapatista movement, Alessandra puts forward a new way of learning through collective living and collaborative art spaces.

This is a guided meditation on present centring. This practice is designed to help us bring ourselves back into the present moment when we have become lost in worries of the future or resentments of the past. Present centring is a skill that we need to develop in order to live mindfully and purposefully.Support the show (https://samadhi.org.uk/support/)

No day is perfect and in life, we need to have the mental energy to deliver our best, stay focused, feel vibrant & energised each and every day. If your ability to deal with the struggle and challenge of a bad day is dictating your ability to be your best self, live your best life & reach your goals, you need a centring practice, so that in the moments that matter, you're able to anchor down & go for it. In this solo episode, I explain how meditation can help us to centre ourselves amidst the turmoil & the stress, and it can help us flip from angst to ease, from chaos to clarity. Meditation is a discipline that we can gift ourselves every single day. Your mind will thank you for it!For more go to https://drmarisaleenaismith.com/44Like this episode?

Quakers have always valued finding a way to an inner stillness. In this episode we explore Advice and Queries no. 2 as a way to find our way to stillness.

This meditation uses Advices and Queries 1 to draw us into stillness. We will use the body as an anchor for centring down and opening to compassion.

This short session is our gift to you as we celebrate our 52nd episode and one year of publishing our podcast. It is a centring exercise to get you ready for supervision.

I am so jazzed to share this episode of The Becoming Podcast with you today.  Graeme Seabrook and I have the most vivacious and far-reaching conversation about motherhood, and I know you will enjoy it. Let me tell you about Graeme:  she is a maternal mental health expert, advocate, and community leader who helps moms and reconnect with and embrace their humanity. As a certified life coach and founder of The Mom Center, an online community exclusively for moms, she's coached over 3,000 moms on how to place their names at the top of their priority list, without guilt or shame. I first learned of Graeme and her work when I listened to her amazing interview on our mutual friend Mara Glatzel's podcast.  Graeme totally blew my mind on that podcast when she talked about the concept of what I've come to call "reclaiming the matriarchy," which essentially says that if mothers are going to do all the emotional and physical and spiritual labour for their families that they do, their needs should be centred in their families.  I've since written about that concept in my own way here. In this conversation with Graeme, we explore that theme more deeply, and she shares with me how that philosophy has evolved over the past couple of years.  We talk about the societal and cultural influences on motherhood, and she reminds all mamas that you're not broken, motherhood is.  Graeme totally debunks the idea of "putting your oxygen mask on first," which basically stopped me completely in my tracks during our interview.  We talk about what empowered motherhood looks like, the power to be found in surrender, and finally, Graeme shares how we can better understand and support BIPOC mothers.  She shares the best piece of guiding advice for this, reminding us that we, as a collective of mothers, are only as healthy and well as those of us who are most marginalized.  

Social media promotional buys and Facebook ads may seem like an attention grabbing, high-risk for big-potential reward gamble, but it's the dependable and cost-effective email that consistently pays the bills and keeps the lights on. Says Jacob Sappington, too few business owners really understand the importance email plays in the majority of their sales, or how to properly utilize them. Despite having healthy and productive email systems, or investing in optimizing their email systems, too many e-commerce brands will chase the better promises of Facebook ads rather than work on the good email offers. The Truth: Facebook ads have consistently been getting more expensive, while not offering a better, more targeted service Email however has only gotten cheaper and easier to automate. It can be near-infinitely adaptable, for whatever the needs of your brand or customers, at a fraction of the cost of paying a social media provider to generate new potential leads, and with much greater creative and market-responsive control when you do land a new contact. Centring your marketing campaign around a cost-effective and efficient email strategy allows you to: Stay in touch with your customers at your whim or need Allow you more flexibility in providing and promoting special offers Create a closer sense of producer-brand-consumer relationship through an ongoing conversation Remain in control of your assets, and where every cent of your promotional budget is spent Give you more content for every dollar, allowing you to generate far more content and connections No one is going to cut off all spending on social media promotions, every brand needs a constant stream of new customers, and you have to generate your lists somewhere if they're not already visiting your store.  However, by supplementing your Facebook and social media spending with email marketing, using social media promotions just for the initial draw and not continued contact with customers, you can drastically cut down on costs while increasing engagement and conversions.

It's hard to go through emotion, financial and physical pain for something you don't truly care about!
