Podcasts about day meditation challenge

Have you ever felt like there's a part of you that's been hiding, waiting to be seen? In this episode, we dive into shadow work—the practice of exploring and accepting the hidden parts of ourselves that shape our thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. We talk about how triggers and trauma reveal our shadow side and why learning to embrace it with compassion is key to healing.We also share our favorite tools for shadow work, from journaling and meditation to reiki and somatic bodywork, and discuss how Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy helps us integrate our different parts. It's a down-to-earth conversation about balancing the light and dark within and using practical methods to better understand ourselves.

In this week's episode your host, Spiritual Medium, Intuitive Healer and Mentor Jessica Meils is joined with special guest Krista Cicale, aka Fozen Banana's on Instagram. Krista is a spiritual guide and recipe blogger. She empowers her audience to drown out the noise and connect with their inner wisdom because the power lies within. Using simple spiritual tools and practices - like short meditations, walks in nature or time in silence - she guides people to navigate everyday life without feeling stuck and to consistently return to themselves. She believes when you stay open, have fun, trust, and surrender, the magic begins to unfold! Let's dive in: * Discipline, taking risks and trusting the call to pivot. * Food as a spiritual experience. * Meditation with cooking, the art and creative process and healing. * Burn out, panic attacks, fear as a messenger. * How a meditation challenge awakened the call the shift. * How a reading led her to the Akashic records and training to become an Akashic Records Reader. * Coming out of the spiritual closet, teaching and spiritual offerings for others! * Signs, they are everywhere! Connect and learn with Krista!

On Day 14, we are combining concentration (shamatha meditation) and insight meditation (vipashyana) to create a daily meditation routine for positive energy, peace and happiness. Over these 14 days of this "Meditate Like a Monk" Meditation challenge, we have learned and practiced a lot and built a consistent meditation practice. Now, it's time to take a step further and do this daily meditation routine to experience more love, self-awareness, mental clarity and spiritual growth.

On Day 13, we are observing the mind. In this meditation, we are focusing on not just the thoughts because in Sanskrit thoughts mean vikalpa which means conceptual activity in the mind. It includes observing thoughts/thinking, emotions, feelings, images, and memories. Unlike in mindfulness of breathing, we focus on letting go of thoughts, here we are observing the thoughts with mindfulness and without getting lost in them or modifying them. You may experience; -Increased Self-Awareness - Improved Emotional Regulation -Less Mental Clutter and Improved Mental Clarity -Enhanced Focus and Presence - Deep Inner Peace ———————————————————————— **GET YOUR FREE MEDITATION GUIDE "Meditate Like a Monk""** https://bit.ly/43pbVN9 ———————————————————————— Connect with me on Social Media for Video content:

On Day 12, we are meditating on our self-cherishing nature that will eventually help us experience ego death. When we see ourselves or "I" as very important, we tend to exaggerate qualities which leads to an inflated view of ourselves. This meditation is designed to help you find a healthy balance between feeling confident and still not being attached to your possessions, wisdom, physical appearance or status which can serve as a basis for this inflated view of I. This will help us to experience; -Higher Self Awareness -Mental Clarity -More Compassion and Equanimity -Less attachment to Ego -Less Suffering and More Happiness ———————————————————————— **GET YOUR FREE MEDITATION GUIDE "Meditate Like a Monk""** https://bit.ly/43pbVN9 ———————————————————————— Connect with me on Social Media for Video content:

According to the National Library of Medicine, In 11 studies, they found that participants typically did not enjoy spending 6 to 15 minutes in a room by themselves with nothing to do but think, that they enjoyed doing mundane external activities much more and that many preferred to have electric shocks to themselves instead of being left alone with their thoughts.

At Live in Flow, we value helping people activate their highest potential to succeed, shine, and live more joyfully. With our support, they are able to take powerful, high-road shortcuts to developing their authentic selves and discovering new levels of confidence and impact. And in this episode, Matt Omo and I will be diving into emotional triggers and how to deal with them.  As humans, we are wired with emotional hot buttons or emotional triggers. One moment we are fine, then someone says something or something happens to push that hot button, bringing an intense emotional reaction. We become upset. We're thrown off balance. We are unable to think or act irrationally. Not surprisingly, these reactions may be way out of proportion in relation to the actual event. The result? Once we calm down, we usually have regrets about what we did or said. We can cause damage to ourselves and to others.  The good news is, Matt and I will be sharing 9 ways you can learn to understand and manage your emotional triggers in healthy ways. And we'll be sharing how we've applied them in our own lives to achieve more harmony and freedom. Don't let your triggers haunt and control your life forever. Listen in to this episode and if you can, take advantage of one of our Live in Flow retreats so you can get the amazing support system you need. About Matt: Matt Omo is a leader of the sound healing movement in Australia with over 15 years of experience working with a variety of sound healing techniques bridging cultures and traditions from around the world. The work and awareness around sound healing and its benefits are growing every day. Matt is developing new programs and products to meet this need and continue to support people in discovering the benefits of the healing power of sound.   Free 7 Day Meditation Challenge: https://www.liveinflow.com.au/link.php?id=1&h=4f106016c5   Live In Flow Retreats & Events: https://www.liveinflow.com.au/meditation-events

About Robbie: Robbie Holz is an internationally respected healer and medium, frequent media guest and an author of the award-winning books read in 43 countries: "Secrets of Aboriginal Healing" and "Aboriginal Secrets of Awakening." Robbie's life was drastically altered in 1985. After a difficult 36-hour delivery, while giving birth to her child, Robbie was given a blood transfusion to "perk her up faster".  Unfortunately the transfusion was tainted with Hepatitis C, a disease often referred to as the silent killer. Like a Trojan horse, the virus hid in her body--until it confidently and openly declared war seven years later. Robbie was in for the fight, and spiritual awakening, of her life. Due to her reaction to the experimental Hepatitis treatment, Robbie developed fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, temporary brain damage, and became bedridden for 7 months. Since Western medicine was no longer able to help her, Robbie set out to find alternative ways to survive and recover. She ultimately healed herself of Hepatitis C, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome and treatment-induced temporary brain damage, described in her award-winning memoir Aboriginal Secrets of Awakening. Her latest book is "Angels in Waiting: How to Reach Out to Your Guardian Angels and Spirit Guides." The companion guidebook is "Vibrant Living: Braving the Pandemic with Help from Your Guardian Angel." Her website is www.holzwellness.com While on her quest for wellness, Robbie met Dr. Gary Holz, an award-winning physicist, Psycho-Neuro-Immunologist and alternative healer. Gary taught her the Aboriginal healing techniques he learned from his encounter with remote Outback Australian Aboriginal tribespeople, chronicled in the award-winning memoir Secrets of Aboriginal Healing. The two eventually married. Like her husband, Robbie has had first-hand experiences with Outback Aboriginal Australians. She participated in Aboriginal healing ceremonies in the Outback. She joined Gary in teaching the over 60,000-year-old Aboriginal healing system, revealed at the tribe's request. Started in 1995, their healing practice centered on Aboriginal healing principles, quantum physics and Psycho-Neuro-Immunology -- using the mind to heal the body. Working as a husband and wife team until his passing in 2007, Robbie helped many people successfully restore their health from such challenges as juvenile arthritis, cancer and sports injuries.

In today's episode, we delve into the transformative power of mindset with our esteemed guest, Ben Spangl. As an experienced mindset and performance coach, Ben provides a wealth of knowledge on embracing a growth mindset, seizing opportunities, and utilizing tools such as visualization and meditation to conquer fears and doubts. He emphasizes the potency of mindfulness in reprogramming limiting beliefs and transcending challenges.  This episode is brimming with practical strategies from Ben, aimed at liberating you from restrictive thought patterns and guiding you towards your ideal future. For anyone seeking to learn from a top-tier coach who truly embodies his teachings, this episode is a must-listen! Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation: Embracing abundance as opportunities How to disconnect yourself from the fear of rejection Unlocking the power of the subconscious The power of meditation Overcoming crises and reaching new heights The power of meditation Episode Highlights: [06:53] Embracing Abundance as Opportunities Everyone aspires for a life filled with abundance, often equated with financial wealth. However, true abundance extends far beyond monetary riches. It encapsulates a rich life teeming with abundant health, relationships, lifestyle, spiritual fulfillment and yes, financial wealth too. This concept aligns with various beliefs, referred to as the 'field' in science or God, source, and the universe in different ideologies. There's a fundamental intelligence guiding life that can deliver our desires. However, it's crucial to remember that navigating the path to our goals doesn't require us to decipher every intricate detail. Fixating on a rigid step-by-step plan could blind us to potential opportunities. Therefore, maintaining an open mindset is key to embracing the abundant life we yearn for. [19:47] How to Disconnect Yourself From the Fear of Rejection One of the ways Ben worked to disconnect from the fear of rejection was through systematically desensitizing himself to it over time. He references the concept of systematic desensitization taught by Steve Siebold, which involves gradually exposing yourself to what you fear in a controlled way to lessen its impact. In sales, Ben faced rejection repeatedly by putting himself out there more and more, which helped him realize he could withstand it. This process of facing rejection bit by bit through his actions and experiences helped reprogram his mindset around it by showing him rejection was not as threatening as he once thought. It became something he could better handle and not take as personally. [24:24] Reprogramming the Mind: Unlocking the Power of Your Subconscious We're all programmed in various ways, with our brain functioning as a supercomputer. The term 'garbage in, garbage out' not only applies to computing but also to our lives. If we consistently generate undesirable outcomes, like financial struggles, it's not our fault but an issue with our mental programming. We harbor unworkable beliefs that shape our behaviors and affect what we attract in life. Understanding this, the key lies in learning how to rewrite these programs at a deep, unconscious level. The subconscious mind, which constitutes 95% of our personality, dictates our thoughts, actions, feelings and even our biological functions. In contrast, our conscious mind accounts for a mere 5%. Despite knowing consciously what we should do to improve our health or increase our wealth, we often don't act on it. This discrepancy arises when our conscious desires haven't permeated our subconscious, leading to a mismatch. In such cases, the emotional, subconscious mind invariably triumphs.

Carrie Heeter, Ph.D., RYS200 and meditation designer in the tradition of Viniyoga has written a fascinating book called ‘An Inside Look at Meditation: Experiences for healing, support and transformation.” Amy and Carrie discuss what it means to have an interactive meditative experience and how this might be different than what most of us think of when we imagine going into meditation.

Carrie is a Research Scientist, a developer of Virtual Reality games and has authored over 100 books and peer reviewed articles as a scholar at Michigan State University for 27 years.

On today's episode we celebrate International Women's Day! This holiday traces its history all the way back to 1909 in NYC. While popular Women's Day traditions include giving women flowers and small gifts, it is so critical that we not let this holiday become detached from its activist roots. Yes, the day is absolutely intended to be a time for us to recognize one another's achievements as women, but it's also a call to action, a day when we're all encouraged to engage in difficult conversations, to challenge institutions, and to embolden our push for gender parity across the world.   With this dedication to progress in mind, it was our thrill to be joined by, Vanessa Loder, who shared not only the story of her personal journey to empowerment, but also provided her professional guidance to help each of us unravel our inner patriarchs, set boundaries, and tap into the energy that motivates us. Vanessa Loder is an inspirational keynote speaker and sought-after expert on women's leadership, mindfulness, stress management and sustainable success. Vanessa's work has been featured in Forbes, Fast Company, the Huffington Post and Glamour magazine, among others. Her TEDx talk “How To Lean In Without Burning Out” has over 150,000 views, over 14,000 people have taken Vanessa's paid online courses and her guided meditations have been streamed over 787,000 times globally. Vanessa provides in-person and online educational tools that support high potential women leaders. By distilling powerful techniques for meditation, visualization, and self-compassion into simple tools and daily practices, Loder teaches women how to quiet their minds, set boundaries without feeling guilty, let go of the pressure to be “perfect”, and get more of what they want in life. Vanessa has taught at AirBnB, Bain & Co, Castlight Health, Charles Schwab, Cisco, Flextronics, Goldman Sachs, Google, LinkedIn, Mattel, PwC, Salesforce, Stanford Graduate School of Business, StubHub!, The North Face, Uber, YouTube, and many other organizations. After spending close to a decade working in finance on Wall Street and Silicon Valley, Vanessa felt that she had climbed to the top of the wrong ladder. Her personal transformation and soul awakening, subsequent research and work have led to thousands of brilliant, overwhelmed women finding their way back to soul. Vanessa received her MBA from Stanford University and her BA from Columbia University where she graduated Phi Beta Kappa, Summa Cum Laude. Loder is a certified Executive Coach, trained in Neuro-Linguistic Programming, past life regression and Vipassana meditation with Jack Kornfield. Vanessa currently lives in Lafayette, CA with her husband and two children, who remind her to take “mommy time-outs” when she's about to lose her marbles.
