Podcasts about daydreaming

Eileen Budd comes from a long line of Scottish storytellers. Her grandfather came home from the war with shrapnel in his legs, took a job driving a tour bus, and out-earned every other driver in Scotland — because he told stories while he drove. Nobody discovered Eileen was legally blind until she was eight, so she learned the world by ear: story by story, told out loud, passed down. In this episode she tells three complete folk tales on air — including the three rules for surviving the Queen of the Fairies — opens her Travelling Folk Museum of donated, two-hundred-year-old objects, and makes the case that the stories of the village, not the castle or the church, are the ones that bring people together. Plus: why we've outsourced our imaginations to our phones, what a story did to a $30 compass on eBay, the folk tale that is secretly about postnatal depression, and how to find the story only you can tell. Your imagination: use it or lose it. How to Tell a Story People Can't Stop Repeating — with Scottish Storyteller Eileen Budd Some stories disappear almost as soon as they're told. Others survive for hundreds of years. They cross villages, families, kitchens, campfires, churches, pubs and generations without ever needing an algorithm to carry them. That is the kind of story Eileen Budd knows how to tell. Eileen comes from a long line of Scottish storytellers, and she learned the world by listening. Nobody discovered she was legally blind until she was eight, so while other children were reading the room visually, Eileen was absorbing voices, details, rhythms and stories. And in this conversation, she reminded me of something I think many of us are losing: storytelling is not the same thing as content. A story asks something of your imagination. It leaves space. It lets you see something that is not physically in front of you. And the best stories become portable. Someone hears them, carries them away, and tells them again. That is what this episode is really about. Eileen tells three complete folk tales on the podcast, including the story of a midwife summoned to the Queen of the Fairies, the rules she must follow to survive, and a changeling story that carries an unexpectedly compassionate understanding of postnatal depression. But we also talk about what happens to imagination when we fill every empty moment with scrolling, why an ordinary $30 compass became worth $1,000 when it had a story attached to it, and why the stories of ordinary people — the stories of the village — may be the ones that connect us most deeply. One of my favorite things Eileen says is that we have started to outsource our imaginations. And I haven't stopped thinking about that. Because imagination requires empty space. Daydreaming. Wondering. Following an image somewhere without immediately needing it to become useful. And if you are an artist, photographer, writer, entrepreneur or simply a person trying to live a more creative life, I think this conversation will make you want some of that space back. Inside the episode We talk about Eileen's grandfather, who returned from war with shrapnel in his legs and became a Scottish tour-bus driver — eventually earning more than the other drivers because he told stories while he drove. Eileen explains the difference between stories of the castle, stories of the church and stories of the village, and why the stories of ordinary people are often the ones that bring us together. She shares why she resisted writing oral stories down for years, what changed her mind, and what can be lost when a living story gets trapped on a page. We talk about daydreaming, imagination and the way constant scrolling can crowd out the inner world. You'll hear the story of a $30 compass whose value changed completely once a story was attached to it, a 200-year-old willow rattle filled with quartz, the full tale of the midwife and the Queen of the Fairies, and Eileen's beautifully simple way of teaching someone how to become a storyteller. And we end with a Scottish origin story about the giants of day and night. If you make anything for a living, I especially want you to listen to the distinction running underneath this whole conversation: People may consume information. But they carry stories.

  Beautiful weather today, minus the wildfire haze in the distance. Daydreaming... about the upcoming cold weather season. Reminders of last year found in my phone, photo folder. Getting down to my last lab visits and one more nuclear test. Sometimes, I feel as if my health does nothing but one-big-circle.  Finishing up the last two bedrooms. Looking forward to be able to say... "I'm finally finished." As promised, I finished "Boys In Blue" this evening. I feel a really GREAT new line dance video in the making... Enjoy! Let me know, what you think.

This week, as part of the Live Happy Summer Reading Program, host Paula Felps sits down with Elizabeth Margulis, a professor of music at Princeton University and director of the Music Cognition Lab, to talk about her book, Transported: The Everyday Magic of Musical Daydreams.  Elizabeth explains why our minds naturally wander when we listen to music, how those imaginative journeys shape our sense of self, and why these experiences are far more meaningful — and scientifically important — than we realize. Listen as she reveals how reconnecting with this simple, often overlooked way of listening can deepen our relationships, boost our mental health, and bring us back to the joy that first made us fall in love with music. In this episode, you'll learn: Why unfamiliar songs can trigger similar imagery across listeners. How music helps us process memories. Why daydreaming to music may be essential for creativity and emotional well‑being.

In this episode,host Rishi Nagar talks about Maladaptive Daydreaming—a little-known condition where vivid daydreams become so immersive that they begin to interfere with daily life. Learn how excessive fantasizing can impact work, relationships, and mental well-being, what causes it, the warning signs to watch for, and practical ways to regain control. Tune in for an insightful discussion on when imagination becomes an escape from reality.

Encore registration "Piano Ten Thousand Leaves" was completed on May 16, 2026. And as a post-completion activity, I hope to deliver it to people 1000 years from now.  I will not be creating any new songs, but I will select one song as "An Encore Registration" from the 4536 songs I previously created and re-register it here.

In marriage, we often look at our spouse and think, “They're the only one for us.” Yet we know that many marriages today still end in divorce. Why is that? Pastor Bill explains that there can be many reasons, but one of the most dangerous is wandering eyes. When Christ isn't at the center of a marriage, it becomes easier for our attention to drift toward other things or other people. So today, Pastor Bill encourages you to keep Christ at the center of your marriage and guard your heart from distractions. 

As parents, we love our children more than anything in this world. We'd take away their pain if you could, just so they wouldn't have to endure it. That deep love we have for our sons and daughters gives us a glimpse of the love God has for His creation. He sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins, all because of His love for us. So today, Pastor Bill encourages you to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior and receive the loving sacrifice He made for you on the cross.

Aha moments don't happen by trying harder — they happen when your brain has space to wander!Join Guy, Mindy, and the gang as they explore the brain science of Aha moments, creative problem solving, and why daydreaming boosts both creativity and problem solving.After Guy spends two hours searching for glasses that are on his head, Mindy shares research connected to scientists at the University of Tokyo showing that mind wandering helps the brain form new connections and spark insight.To test the science, Mindy, Guy, and the gang tackle a classic river-crossing brain teaser in the wilderness — where nobody can be left alone without chaos erupting.In this STEM podcast episode, you'll discover:• What happens in the brain during an Aha! moment • Why overthinking blocks creative problem solving • How mind wandering strengthens flexible thinkingIf you struggle with puzzles, creative blocks, or problem solving, this episode is packed with science-backed tools to build a growth mindset and unlock better ideas!Sometimes the smartest move isn't focusing harder.It's letting your brain wander.It's the Who, When, Wow, How, and WOW of AHA! moments and the brain!

Here's a question for you that may at first seem trivial, but is actually profound: Why do our minds drift? If you have ever dabbled in mindfulness or meditation, you know this mind wandering has an almost gravitational pull. In fact, researchers now think we spend as much as 50 percent of our waking time in this state, which cognitive scientists have dubbed the brain's “default mode.”Today's guest is Vinod Menon. He's a giant in the field of cognitive science who played a central role in defining the brain “default mode network” back in 2003. In our conversation, he argues our tendency to daydream may be at the core of our self-identities, our creativity – and also many of our most troubling psychiatric disorders, from Alzheimer's to ADHD.Vinod Menon is Rachel L. and Walter F.

This week, actor Milo Ventimiglia — known for 'This Is Us,' 'Gilmore Girls' and 'Heroes' — tells us why he chose to star in a new Christian movie, playing real-life worship artist Tim Timmons, who was diagnosed with terminal cancer over 20 years ago and is still defying the odds today. In RELEVANT Buzz, the crew recaps the Super Bowl — including the incredible story of Seahawks coach Mike McDonald, who followed God's calling to leave the corporate world to take an unpaid internship in coaching. And now 12 years later, it's led to a Super Bowl championship. We also dig into a new study revealing that Gen Z is statistically dumber than their parents (and why that's significant). Plus, Jesse forces the crew to watch the Carman movie trailer, and at the end of the show, we have Ask the Cast!

Send us a textWhat comes to mind when you think about being “professional”? Fast, certain, composed, always ready with an answer. But those reflexes weren't born in today's world. They were forged in factories and on battlefields, where control, compliance, and speed kept systems running.In this episode, liminal coach, AI-enthusiast, and possibilitarian Mike Parker invites us to trace that origin story and ask whether those habits still help. We hold the past up to the present: modern work that depends on curiosity, synthesis, care, and the courage to say “I don't know.”Together we explore what shifts when we stop chasing certainty and start practising wisdom—protecting real thinking, letting not-knowing lead to better decisions, and using AI to widen possibilities without outsourcing judgment. More than a history lesson, this is an invitation to trade fear-polish for trust, presence, and purpose so people can create better, together.Find out about:How industrial-age rules still shape “professional” behavior—and what to keep, update, or retireWhy depth beats speed: the role of calm, daydreaming, and the default-mode network in insightCreating rooms where questions lead, learning is visible, and inclusion isn't performativeUsing AI as an expander for divergent options while keeping humans at the centerConnect with Mike:WebsiteLinkedInSubstackSupport the show✨✨✨You can now find the podcast on Substack, where your host Dr. Myriam Hadnes is building a club for you to find fellow listeners and peers: https://myriamhadnes.substack.com/

Episode 1193: Are you building a life you love, or just escaping one that feels misaligned?

Summer brings ice cream, popsicles and other frozen treats – all of which can cause painful brain freeze. Why does that happen, and can you stop it? Listen as I explain what brain freeze is and a really good remedy for it. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/brain-freeze-why-does-ice-cream-give-you-headaches/ To make changes in your thoughts, personality and behavior takes a lot of work over a long period of time. Well, maybe for some things. However, there are some quick and simple strategies to tackle some more common psychological problems. Here to explain many of them is Richard Wiseman. He is a professor of psychology and the autor of several books including, 59 Seconds: Think a Little, Change A Lot (https://amzn.to/4jWvNh7) You spend a lot of your time living in your imagination. Daydreaming, mind wandering, reminiscing, anticipating – all happen in your imagination and those things can take up to half of your day. Joining me to take a look into how your imagination works is Adam Zeman. He is Honorary Fellow, Centre for Clinical Brain Sciences, at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland and author of the book The Shape of Things Unseen: A New Science of Imagination (https://amzn.to/3Tfu3VH) Are you absolutely sure your car is not currently under a recall? Surprisingly many people don't take their cars in for recall repairs. Consequently, many cars on the road are under a recall and the driver has no idea.

And it will take less than a minute. https://www.autoblog.com/maintenance/consumers-dont-care-about-recalls Here is the website I mention in the story: www.SaferCar.gov Learn more about your ad choices.

Daydreaming of registering for a marathon or in the thick of training? Wherever you fall on the marathon-spectrum (including “no way, no how!”), you'll enjoy this episode. Hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Coach Liz Waterstraat talk to four “regular” runners about their debut marathon pursuits. They cover topics such as: -their marathon motivations; -the satisfaction of setting and striving toward a goal; -how the run/walk method makes 26.2 attainable; -the “delicious pain” that comes with covering the miles; and, -the mountain of laundry generated during training! Before the first marathoner joins around 10:38, the hosts share about their first marathons—and Chicagoland's “garbage hills!” Register for our Lake Placid retreat.  When you shop our sponsors, you help AMR.
