Wake Me Up - Guided morning mindfulness, meditation, and motivation
You are not the noise in your head this morning. You are the stillness beneath it. In just 10 minutes, this guided morning meditation will help you clear your mind, release physical tension, and find the calm that's been inside you all along, so you can start your day from a place of clarity instead of chaos. Most mornings, the mind is already running before your feet hit the floor. To-do lists, yesterday's unfinished business, the low hum of anxiety that follows you into the day. This meditation is the reset. A quiet 10 minutes to come back to yourself before the world gets loud, and a reminder that no matter what the day brings, there is always stillness available to you beneath the surface. This meditation session includes: - A powerful opening breathwork sequence to slow the nervous system and ease you out of autopilot mode. - A gentle body scan and physical release to let go of overnight tension. - A guided stillness visualization to quiet mental chatter and find the calm that exists beneath your thoughts. - Extended open silence throughout, giving you real space to settle, rather than rushing you from one cue to the next. - A grounding close to send you into your day with a clearer, calmer mind. This meditation is designed for repeat daily use. The more consistently you practice, the more quickly you'll be able to access this stillness... not just during the meditation, but in the middle of a busy day, a stressful meeting, or a difficult moment. Over time, you won't just feel better in the morning. You'll carry this calm with you throughout your whole life. #meditation #guidedmeditation Check out the Wake Me Up Mindset Coach app: http://studio.com/wakemeup.

Disclosure Is the Beginning, Not the End Summary Many couples assume that once disclosure, impact letters, and emotional restitution are complete, healing should naturally follow. Yet many still find themselves feeling disconnected and wondering why they continue to struggle. In this episode, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis explain why disclosure is not the finish line but the foundation for rebuilding a relationship. Recovery and trauma work address secrecy and pain, but they do not automatically teach couples how to communicate, listen deeply, regulate emotions, and reconnect. Healing requires learning relationship skills, addressing old patterns, and developing new ways of showing up for one another. The journey doesn't end with disclosure—it begins there. Resources Mentioned Human Intimacy Podcast (previous episodes on Therapeutic Disclosure, Impact Letters, and Emotional Restitution) Human Intimacy Podcast Deep Listening: A Healing Practice to Calm Your Body, Clear Your Mind, and Open Your Heart by Jillian Pransky Deep Listening by Jillian Pransky The Intimacy Repair Method (courses, intensives, and relationship skill-building resources) Intimacy Repair Method Human Intimacy Podcast Companion Course (free reflections, exercises, and video lessons) Human Intimacy Podcast Companion Course Human Intimacy Courses (communication, emotional connection, and relationship education) Human Intimacy Courses Couples Intensives with Dr. Kevin Skinner Human Intimacy Website These resources are discussed as ways to continue developing the relationship skills necessary for healing after disclosure.
Mindfulness isn't about emptying your mind or finally feeling calm—and believing it was is probably why you quit. Your emotions fire before your thinking brain ever catches up, which means most of your reactions—the defensiveness, the cravings, the snap judgments—are already in motion before you "decide" anything. In this conversation, Tony unpacks the neuroscience behind that gap and the genuinely doable practice that helps you notice your patterns sooner, build a pause, and respond to your life instead of just reacting to it. In this episode, you'll: Discover why you "feel before you think"—the low road and high road your brain takes, and why emotions fire roughly two and a half times faster than thoughts Learn to build the pause that turns automatic reactions (yes, including the fourth Oreo) into actual choices Untangle the real difference between meditation and mindfulness—and why the practice has roots in everything from Buddhist tradition to Christian contemplative prayer, no conversion required Understand why silence can feel so unbearable that people will choose a mild electric shock over sitting alone with their thoughts—and what that reveals about emotional avoidance Strengthen the "runway" between your internal smoke alarm and your inner fire chief using sleep, breath, and a practice you can start in the next sixty seconds Tony Overbay is a licensed marriage and family therapist and host of The Virtual Couch, drawing on his clinical work and four-plus years of daily practice to make mindfulness feel approachable instead of intimidating. Stay through the end for a short guided practice you can take with you—and remember, you're not failing when your mind wanders. You're not broken. You're human.

Zen and mindfulness teacher Henry Shukman guides us in a meditation that invites us to listen deeply and find clarity in quiet.How To Do This Practice: Find Stillness: Sit comfortably in a quiet space. Close your eyes if you'd like, and allow your body to settle. Bring Your Attention to the Present: Take a few deep breaths. Let go of to-do lists or distractions, gently arriving in this moment. Tune In to the Sounds Around You: Begin to notice the soundscape of your environment. Near or far, loud or soft. Don't judge or label the sounds, just hear them. Notice Background Silence: Beyond individual sounds, sense the quiet in which all sounds arise. This isn't just an absence of noise, it's a felt sense of stillness. Soak in the Quiet: Rest your awareness in this space of quiet. Let it wash over you, soften you, and bring you back to yourself. Gently Return: When you're ready, bring small movements back to your body. Wiggle your fingers or stretch. Open your eyes and carry this quiet awareness into the rest of your day.

Hey Heal Squad! Today Maria and Kelsey are diving into one of the biggest struggles we all face: negative thoughts. They unpack how our brains can get stuck in loops of stress and fear, and why those thought patterns can actually impact our health. Maria's sharing her wisdom she's learned from Dr Joe Dispenza and Tony Robbins, to reflect on the tools that help them shift out of negativity, get back into the present moment, and choose better-feeling thoughts that support healing and peace. From meditation to mindset shifts, they share what's worked for them, how they catch themselves in negative spirals, and why awareness is the first step toward freedom. It's time to take your power back because your thoughts don't have to control you, you get to control them.

Hey, Heal Squad! In this throwback episode, Maria and Kels are diving into the real, life-changing power of decluttering (not just your home!), your mind, energy, and daily habits. We talk about how physical clutter creates mental chaos, blocks creativity, and even affects your mood and relationships. You'll learn how letting go of what you don't need makes space for what you do, whether that's new opportunities, better health, or a deeper sense of peace. From simple, practical tips to the emotional side of parting with “stuff,” this conversation will inspire you to release what's weighing you down. Because when you clear your space, you clear the path for the life you've been wanting to live. It's not just about tidying up, it's about creating room for joy, clarity, and the things that truly matter. Let's make space for the life you deserve!

So, take a deep breath, relax, and let's let go of the noise together. Xo, Jody Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
