Podcasts about daily practice

This week we're diving into a topic you all have been asking us about for a long time: The Witch Trials. What actually happened during this period in history, and how did thousands of people end up accused of witchcraft?In this episode, we talk about the massive witch hunts that took place across Europe between the 1400s and 1700s, the myths many of us learned about the Salem Witch Trials, and the social, political, and religious forces that fueled these accusations. We also break down some of the bizarre “tests” used to identify witches and why so many of the people targeted were women, healers, or outsiders in their communities.To finish off, we talk about why this history still matters and how the idea of a “witch hunt” continues to show up in modern culture today.Resources Mentioned:- Heal the Witch Wound: Reclaim Your Magic and Step Into Your Power by Celeste Larson- How to Kill a Witch: The Patriarchy's Guide to Silencing Women by Zoe Venditozzi, Claire Mitchell - Libro FM link- Royal Witches: Witchcraft and the Nobility in Fifteenth-Century England by Gemma Hollman- Lights, Camera, Witchcraft: A Critical History of Witches in American Film and Television by Heather GreeneSupport your local bookstore and this podcast by grabbing your audiobooks through Libro.fm.

We're sharing some big news and diving into a topic you've been asking about for over a year. Madison announces her upcoming book, The Grief Grimoire (coming fall 2027), and we use it as a starting point to explore the idea of grief magic. Inspired by the loss of Madison's mentor Linda, the book explores how magic can support us through mourning, remembrance, and connection with those we've lost.We talk about the many forms grief can take, from losing loved ones and pets to grieving relationships, identities, and versions of ourselves. We share personal stories about signs from the other side, creating grief altars, working with psychic senses, and using practices like Reiki to support healing. Most importantly, we explore how remembering the people we've lost allows them to continue living through us.If you're navigating grief or supporting someone who is, this episode offers gentle reflections and magical tools for honoring loss while making space for healing.Order Molly's book Mundane Magic A Lazy Witch's Guide to Hacking Your Brain, Building a Daily Practice, and Getting Stuff DoneJoin our Patreon for bonus episodes, magical downloads, and unhinged side quests: https://www.patreon.com/demystifymagic

Over the past few years, our field has been evolving in powerful and necessary ways. In this episode, we unpack the shift from compliance-driven ABA to assent-based practice and what that actually looks like in our day-to-day work.When we were first trained, “instructional control” and follow-through were often the priority. But we now know that meaningful learning does not come from rigid compliance. It comes from collaboration, autonomy, and dignity. We talk through what assent really means and what it does not mean, and how we can maintain structure and high expectations while still honoring a learner's voice.Through practical examples, like rethinking toileting readiness and embedding meaningful choice, we explore how shaping, relationship-building, and clinical judgment create more ethical and effective teaching. Assent-based practice is not about lowering standards. It is about evolving ABA to be more humane, neuroaffirming, and socially significant.What's Inside:The difference between compliance and assent in ABAPractical strategies to balance structure with autonomyHow shaping, choice, and dignity improve learner outcomesMentioned in This Episode:Malone (2025), Upholding Anti-AbleismEpisode 113: How to Maintain Client Dignity in ABAHowToABA.com/joinHow to ABA on YouTubeFind us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

Show Notes: Nir Eyal, author of Hooked and Indistractable, talks about his new book Beyond Belief. Nir explains the inspiration for writing the book and the book's purpose: to help people process information and put it into practice. Nir shares his motivation for writing the book, focusing on the psychology of motivation and the importance of perseverance and adaptability. He talks about the missing component in moving from belief to action, and discusses the concept of motivation as a triangle, emphasizing the role of belief in sustaining motivation.  Beliefs Affecting Perception The conversation turns to stories from the book about beliefs affecting perception, such as the Toyota vs. GM prism and the expensive vs. cheap glass of wine experiments that proved the participants actually believed to be truths based on the information received over the facts. Nir explains how beliefs can literally change what we see, citing examples like people on diets seeing food as larger and people with a fear of heights perceiving distances as further. He discusses how brands and luxury goods affect perception. Nir emphasizes that our beliefs shape what we see, feel, and do, and that understanding this can help us improve our lives. Limiting vs Liberating Beliefs When asked how to identify and change limiting beliefs, Nir explains that beliefs are tools, not truths, and that understanding this can help us improve our lives. Applying this approach to relationships to illustrate how it works, he shares a personal story about a conflict with his mother and how he used the Work of Byron Katie to question his beliefs. Nir outlines the four questions from "The Work" that help identify and change limiting beliefs: Is it true? Is it absolutely true? Who am I when I hold this belief? Who would I be without this belief? Magical Thinking vs Mental Contrasting Nir talks about how to apply the belief inventory to other areas of life, such as business and company culture. He explains that beliefs are the operating system of our minds and that understanding this can help us improve our relationships and business practices. He discusses the concept of mental contrasting, which involves visualizing both the desired outcome and the obstacles to achieving it. Nir emphasizes that magical thinking, such as positive thinking without action, can be harmful and that mental contrasting is a more effective approach. Prayer for the Unfaithful On the chapter about prayer in the book, Nir explains that prayer has benefits even without faith, citing a study where people who prayed, even without faith, had better pain tolerance. He shares his experience of interviewing five faith leaders to learn how to pray when uncertain about God. Nir discusses the benefits of prayer, such as longer life, more life satisfaction, and less depression, and how he has incorporated prayer into his life. Setting Failure Goals When questioned about the concept of failure goals, Nir explains that failure goals involve setting goals for how many times you try, rather than focusing solely on success. He discusses the importance of celebrating the process and the journey, rather than just the outcome. Discipline in Practice Nir shares that he has incorporated prayer and improved his relationships through new practices. He discusses the concept of daily mantras, such as "we are all working with the tools we have" and "love is measured by the benefit of the doubt," to help shed limiting beliefs. Nir emphasizes the importance of these practices in improving his psychological well-being and relationships.

Send a textWhat if joy isn't the finish line but the fuel? We sit down with life coach and former crisis therapist Darlene Berry to reframe joy as a daily, practical practice that can live alongside pain without pretending everything is fine. Drawing from frontline experience, Darlene explains why suffering looks different for everyone and how gratitude becomes the bridge from “I'm hurting” to “I'm healing.” The heart of our conversation is simple and doable: slow breathwork to regulate the nervous system, short affirmations to anchor the day, and a three-line journal that captures one personal gratitude, one future-facing intention, and one small present joy.We dig into how choosing joy reshapes relationships and work. If you've learned to overgive to feel worthy, this is your permission slip to set kinder boundaries and say no with clarity. Darlene connects the dots between positive emotion and measurable outcomes—better focus, higher engagement, and fewer sick days—without slipping into toxic positivity. Instead, we talk about grounded, felt joy that helps you navigate tough seasons with steadier hands and clearer choices. You'll hear real language you can borrow, small rituals you can start today, and a mindset shift that makes room for both grief and gratitude.You'll also get a free guided meditation from Darlene to support your morning or evening routine, plus practical tips pulled from her article, “Unlocking Joy Through Coaching: Exploring Joy's Connections to Suffering and Gratitude.” Whether you're a coach or a curious listener, you'll walk away with tools that are gentle, repeatable, and effective.

We also talk about solo witchy travel, ghost tours, working with Mercury retrograde without putting your life on hold, and the ripple effect this podcast has had on both our lives.

In this episode, Dr. Killeen reflects on the simple rule to do good and why it carries more weight than we often realize. He explores how small, consistent acts of generosity and integrity shape not only our teams and practices, but also our own character. Doing good is not just a moral idea. It builds trust, strengthens culture, and creates momentum in ways that compound over time. Meaningful leadership often starts with quiet, intentional choices made every day.

AI is transforming the world—but is it transforming privacy for better or for risk? We trust our GP with our deepest secrets, but can we extend that same trust to AI-powered systems and cloud-based suppliers? And if AI can re-identify people even in anonymized research data, is “anonymous” still real anymore? In this episode, Punit Bhatia and Tania Palmariellodiviney reveals how AI tools reshape confidentiality, integrity, availability, cloud sprawl, supplier risk, clinical transcription accuracy, re-identification, and even personal fears like voice-based deepfakes. The voice of experience rings clear: digital trust isn't a checkbox…it's engineered early with transparency, responsible data use, privacy by design, and safety by design. 

In this week's episode, we're joined by Nordic witch, rune reader, and author of Queering the Runes, Siri Vincent Plouff, for a deep and delightfully bird-filled dive into runic magic. Siri shares the wild origin story of being claimed by Odin via the infamous “Minneapolis Murder” of crows, how that encounter led them into Heathenry, and what it really means to build a relationship with the runes as living spirits. We unpack common misconceptions about Norse culture, hint it is more than just Viking bros and dreads, the impact of Christianization on the myths, and how Hollywood has flattened an incredibly rich and complex spiritual history.Most importantly, we explore what it means to queer the runes, both as an identity and as a verb. Siri breaks down gender fluidity and performance in Old Norse mythology, Loki's shapeshifting chaos, Odin's relationship to feminine magic, and how queering spiritual systems helps us break out of rigid, heteronormative frameworks. We also talk about ethical rune practice, avoiding white supremacist co-optation, and simple low spoon ways to incorporate runes into daily life, including body poses, pocket magic, and protection work. Whether you're rune curious or already in deep, this conversation will expand your understanding of Nordic magic and maybe even your definition of tradition itself.Find more about Siri below:WebsitePatreonHeathen's Journey PodcastChaos and Cunning PodcastBlueSkyInstagramTikTokRegister for the Queering the Runes courseOrder Molly's book Mundane Magic A Lazy Witch's Guide to Hacking Your Brain, Building a Daily Practice, and Getting Stuff DoneJoin our Patreon for bonus episodes, magical downloads, and unhinged side quests: https://www.patreon.com/demystifymagic

SummaryIn this enlightening conversation, Poonam Kassad, an integrative nutrition coach, shares her journey towards understanding wellness beyond just food. She emphasizes the importance of listening to the body's signals, feeling safe, and the emotional connections we have with food. Poonam discusses the pitfalls of rigid diets and the significance of finding balance in a busy life. The conversation highlights the power of breath, the need to prioritize health, and the myth of perfectionism in wellness. Ultimately, it encourages a supportive and joyful approach to health, where slowing down can lead to profound changes.TakeawaysReal wellness begins not on the plate but in the nervous system.Food is definitely an integral part, but it's something more.Your body is intelligent enough to heal on its own.The body must feel safe before it can digest, repair and heal.Rigid diets often leave people feeling emotionally failed.When you stop fighting your body, everything changes.It's about how you are eating and how you're feeling.Discipline is about consistency and flexibility.Health is the base; if you do not have health, you are going nowhere.Wellness is not a stress; it becomes very supportive.Chapters00:00:00 Introduction to Soul Velocity and Wellness Journey00:01:06 Poonam's Personal Wellness Struggles00:03:05 The Importance of Listening to Your Body00:07:23 Understanding the Nervous System and Digestion00:09:30 The Pitfalls of Rigid Diets00:11:53 Shifting from Guilt to Balance00:15:38 Finding Harmony with Food00:18:39 Discipline vs. Joy in Wellness00:21:29 Prioritizing Health Amidst Life's Chaos00:25:48 The Long-Term Benefits of Slowing Down00:28:09 Wellness as a Supportive Journey00:29:13 The Power of Breath in Daily Life00:37:51 Breaking the Perfectionism Myth00:40:08 Daily Practices for Lasting Change00:43:56 Self-Care and the Importance of BoundariesPrograms by Snehal - https://linktr.ee/snehalrsinghAll books by MSW - https://linktr.ee/mindspiritworksLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/snehalrsingh/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/snehalrsinghInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/mindspiritworksFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/mindspiritworksllcYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@SnehalRSinghCompany site - https://www.mindspiritworks.com/

If everything feels a little unhinged right now, emotionally tender, energetically loud, and slightly chaotic for no clear reason, welcome to eclipse season. This week, we're pulling an episode from the archives because honestly, past us nailed it. Eclipse energy has a way of shaking things loose, amplifying feelings, and turning everyday life into a bit of a cosmic tornado, and we talk candidly about what that actually feels like instead of pretending it's all graceful transformation.In this episode, we unpack Eclipse season as a catalyst for clarity, disruption, and necessary change, using personal stories, familiar metaphors, and a lot of very real laughter. We share the grounding, shielding, and cleansing practices we rely on when the vibes are wild, along with why mundane care and energetic boundaries matter more than pushing through or doing more magic. This is a funny, tender reminder that even when everything feels upside down, the point is finding your footing again and remembering the magic lives inside you.Order Mundane Magic & Join the Virtual Book Tour⁠: Celebrate the release of Molly's new book with an exclusive online event on Feb 21, 12 PM EST.

In this special bonus episode recorded ahead of their full mindset conversation, Dwayne Kerrigan and Emma Murray reflect on a deeply personal topic: relationships.As Valentine's Day approaches, they explore how intimate relationships often absorb the stress, pressure, and emotional buildup from the outside world. Dwayne shares candidly about his own growth — recognizing how habitual reactions, unmet needs, and old internal stories can surface at home if they're not processed throughout the day. Emma adds insight into how unconscious patterns, primary questions, and survival wiring shape the way we show up with those we love most.Together, they discuss raising standards inside the relationship, practicing conscious awareness, meeting your partner's needs without expectation, and replacing self-judgment with grace. This short but powerful conversation reframes love not as grand gestures, but as attention, awareness, and intentional daily behavior.Episode Highlights:0:00 - Introduction: Valentine's Day as a renewal for relationships0:27 - Viewing Valentine's Day as a time for awareness and meeting needs1:23 - Why we release stress on loved ones instead of during the day2:41 - Holding different standards for work vs. intimate relationships3:43 - The importance of awareness in meeting your partner's needs4:34 - Breaking habitual negative response patterns in relationships5:11 - How relationship quality affects every area of life5:38 - "Chains of habit are too light to be felt until too heavy to be broken"6:06 - Treating your partner with conscious awareness7:14 - Focusing on relationship growth: reading, podcasts, and learning7:53 - Enjoying the process instead of fixating on an end state8:30 - Getting addicted to lighting up your partner9:10 - Managing anger and identifying emotional triggers9:52 - Using Byron Katie's four questions to examine stories we tell ourselves10:12 - Taking responsibility instead of projecting onto your partner10:30 - We're all learning - giving yourself and your partner grace11:54 - Appreciating yourself for being imperfectKey Takeaways:We often release built-up stress on the people we love mostAwareness creates choice inside intimate momentsLove grows when we actively meet one another's needsSelf-reflection prevents projectionGrace and ownership dissolve conflict faster than blameRelationships are built through process, not perfectionConscious love is practiced — not automaticQuotes:“There's nothing better in this world and nothing makes life feel greater than having an amazing relationship that is just full of love and abundance when it is going and operating at its peak level.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“ I didn't hold myself to the same standard inside the intimate relationship as I did in my professional life.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“If things are not good in your relationship, they're not good anywhere you go.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“I think our relationships are very based on just habitual...

What if joy isn't something you wait for—but something you practice? In this episode, Cathy “the Laughing Bean Queen” Nesbitt shows how intentional laughter can quickly shift your state when life feels heavy. This conversation is for anyone feeling stressed, tense, isolated, or emotionally worn down. You'll learn how laughter supports breath, presence, and resilience—without pretending everything is fine—and how to start a simple daily “dose” at home. About the Guest: Cathy Nesbitt (kathysclub.com) is known as the “Laughing Bean Queen” and has run a worm composting business for 24 years. Introduced to laughter yoga in 2012, she now leads a free weekly Laughter Club. Episode Chapter: 00:04:35 — Choosing joy when the world feels heavy 00:05:42 — When laughter became intentional (and changed everything) 00:08:06 — Why “fake” laughter still works in the body 00:10:38 — Permission to play: laughing without denying reality 00:15:17 — Breath, nervous system reset, and practical stress relief 00:20:41 — The mirror method: smile, self-hug, and Ho'oponopono Key Takeaways: Treat laughter like a daily practice—small, consistent doses beat “one and done.” Use laughter to trigger deeper breathing and bring yourself back to the present. When you feel stressed, pause, inhale, and laugh briefly to reset before reacting. Start with a mirror routine: smile, add a gentle giggle, and offer yourself kindness. Try Ho'oponopono in the mirror: “I love you. I'm sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you.” Choose connection: laughter with others helps reduce isolation and softens reactivity.

On this episode we're sitting down with Molly Donlan. Witch, energy worker, certification collector, and co-host of Demystify Magic. Molly is also celebrating the release of her brand new book, Mundane Magic: A Lazy Witch's Guide to Hacking Your Brain, Building a Daily Practice, and Getting Stuff Done. This conversation drops February 13th, just days before her book hits shelves on the 17th, which is the perfect moment to talk superstition, Friday the 13th vibes, and how to turn everyday life into spellwork without burning yourself out. We even have a game show where Laylla quizzes Molly and Chelle on their Friday the 13th superstition knowledge, equal parts chaos, laughter, and witchy trivia. Molly shares how she went from skeptic to someone who found a grounded blend of magic and science that actually works. Her approach is practical, trauma-informed, sensory, and surprisingly hilarious. We talk about transforming chores into enchantment, paying bills like it's a ritual, vacuuming like it's a clearing spell, and why “stirring your tea with intention” is just the beginning. Her work grew out of her own ADHD practice and the real-life problem areas her audience brought to her, starting on Instagram as a way to be witchy every single day without it becoming another item on a guilt list. We also get into brain hacking, and the magic of engaging the senses to regulate your nervous system, and a mood elevating meditation involving a surprising kitchen utensil that will absolutely make you laugh and accidentally fix your mood. If you've ever struggled with consistency, motivation, executive function, or feeling like you're failing at your practice, this episode is for you. This is magic that meets you in the laundry room, at the sink, in the middle of a messy day, and whispers, “You can work with this.”Molly's WebsiteReiki classes with MollyDemystify Magic PodcastTHE BOOK!!Got a question?

Please join Denise and Samantha as they discuss different ways to implement a daily practice into your life. They explore different ways to work specific practices attuned to you into your day in order to feel more balanced mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Studies have shown that integrating daily practices can enhance mental clarity, emotional regulation, and overall well-being. The focus of small, consistent actions that can be easily integrated into daily life, such as mindfulness, physical routines, and spiritual rituals seems to be a key in developing consistency. Some practices can evolve with life stages and contribute to cognitive functioning and resilience but what it really comes down to is finding the personal rituals that resonate with you and find a way to prioritize this self-care into your daily routine. If you have a routine or practice that has improved your quality of life in some way and you’d like to share, please send us a note at: http://enlightenedempaths.com For more information about Samantha and her work: http://samanthafey.com Denise and her offerings can be found at: http://thegratefulmessenger.com

In this powerful and deeply human conversation, Amy Sylvis sits down with gratitude expert, entrepreneur, and author Kim Angeli to explore what it truly means to choose abundance - even when life feels chaotic, uncertain, or painful. Kim shares her personal journey from building and selling a successful insurance agency to answering a calling to teach Grateful Living as a daily practice. Together, Amy and Kim unpack the science and spirituality behind gratitude, why only a small percentage of people consciously choose it, and how shifting from reaction to response can radically change your life, business, and sense of purpose.

Today's anchor is intentionally quiet. We are practicing something simple but very powerful. Listening instead of overriding.So often, we only slow down when our bodies force us to. When we're sick. Exhausted. Or running on empty.As women, and especially as mothers, we are so conditioned to be doing for everyone else. Holding. Managing. Anticipating. Planning. And the moment we pause, even briefly, guilt creeps in. Like we should be doing more. Like rest has to be earned.I am currently reading a book called The Relaxed Woman. And it's been a gentle reminder that relaxation isn't something we arrive at once everything is done. It's something we decide is important and we must practice relaxing in our real everyday lives. This anchor is an invitation to practice that.It's about practicing that pause before we reach a point of burnout and disregulation.This anchor is a reminder that rest is not a reward. It's information. And listening is one of the most powerful things we can do for ourselves and those around us.When we pause, we create space.Space to respond instead of react.Space to notice what we actually need.Space for our bodies to recalibrate without being pushed.When we pause, we model regulation for the people around us.We show our children, our partners, and ourselves that it's safe to slow down.That care doesn't have to come from exhaustion.Together we all learn that presence is more powerful than pushing through.As you move back into your day, carry this with you.You don't need to do more.You don't need to prove anything.Sometimes the most supportive thing you can dois stop and listen.Pause. Thanks for listening!

We're unpacking the chaotic, controversial, and wildly influential life of Aleister Crowley, the so-called “The Beast 666” and one of the most polarizing figures in modern occult history.From his strict Christian upbringing and rebellion into ceremonial magick, to sex magick, Thelema, and the infamous phrase “Do what thou wilt,” we explore what Crowley actually believed versus how he lived. We examine his role in shaping modern witchcraft and Wicca, his influence on tarot and pop culture, and why his legacy still sparks debate today. Along the way, we cover scandals, cult dynamics, drugs, power, misogyny, and the uncomfortable truth that harmful people can still leave lasting spiritual ideas behind. A nuanced, critical, and occasionally unhinged look at why modern witchcraft can't fully escape Crowley's shadow.Join our Patreon for bonus episodes, magical downloads, and unhinged side quests: https://www.patreon.com/demystifymagicPre-order Molly's book Mundane Magic A Lazy Witch's Guide to Hacking Your Brain, Building a Daily Practice, and Getting Stuff DonePreorder Mundane Magic & Join the Virtual Book Tour⁠: Celebrate the release of Molly's new book with an exclusive online event on Feb 21, 12 PM EST.
