In this episode, Molly and Clarissa welcome back Dr. Ann Saffi Biasetti for a rich, grounded conversation on body forgiveness and why it can be a turning point in embodied healing. Drawing on her clinical work, research, and lived experience, Ann shares that "forgiving your body" isn't a mental exercise or forced positivity—it's a felt shift that helps move people from control and correction toward listening, trust, and reconciliation with the body as an ally. Ann also introduces themes from her upcoming book, Your Body Never Meant You Any Harm: A Somatic Guide to Forgiving and Healing Your Relationship With Your Body, and revisits the foundation of her work from Befriending Your Body—offering an informed, non-pathologizing approach for anyone healing from disordered eating, chronic dieting, trauma, shame, illness, or body distrust. What you'll hear in this episode How Ann's postpartum autoimmune illness became a doorway into deeper embodiment—and body advocacy The difference between interoceptive awareness (noticing signals) and standing up for your body when you're dismissed Why embodiment is a psychospiritual construct—and how "being beside your body" can be a practical starting point How to tell the difference between mind fear-stories and what your body is actually communicating Entry points for people who feel body connection is inaccessible: curiosity, regulation, and "giving your body a chance" What it means to find your center—and why being "off-center" fuels critical thoughts and body war How diet culture targets predictable times of day when people feel more vulnerable in body image A clear breakdown: body forgiveness vs body acceptance vs body neutrality Why pushing the body to "comply" before safety and trust are built can feel re-traumatizing The clinical risk of "behavioral recovery" without embodiment—and why unresolved embodiment work can look like "relapse" or "symptom swapping." Ann's powerful reframe for "my body failed me" (and the deeper words that often live underneath that phrase) Memorable takeaways Body forgiveness is not forced forgiveness. It's a mind–heart shift that often arises from understanding, regulation, and compassion rather than effort. Curiosity is an access point. It creates space where judgment collapses and new options become possible. Words land in the body. Shifting language (from "failed me" to "became unwell," "changed," "declined," "disappointed," "let me down") can soften the adversarial stance and open an embodied conversation. Mentioned in this episode Befriending Your Body (Ann's book and the evidence-informed compassion-based program) Your Body Never Meant You Any Harm (Ann's forthcoming book on somatic body forgiveness) Embodiment as a "container" for recovery (not just behavior change) Self-compassion components (mindfulness, common humanity, kindness) as supports for body repair For listeners who want to go deeper If you've ever felt like your body is the problem—or you've done everything "right" and still feel distrust—this conversation offers a different path: not fixing the body, but rebuilding relationship with it. Ann's approach emphasizes safety, steadiness, and the kind of compassion that can hold grief, regret, and shame without getting stuck there.

In this mini manifesting series, we explore a quieter but more powerful truth: we attract experiences that match our level of regulation. In part 3.5, we introduce attachment styles as a framework for understanding how regulated we feel , not as labels, but as patterns that show up in work, opportunity, and uncertainty, not just relationships. Life responds to who you're practiced at being, which is why the same dynamics can repeat across people, projects, or seasons until something internally shifts. In this portion of the series, we focuse on the identity shift that changes everything. Manifestation is embodiment, not hope. We contrast the energy of doubting with the energy of expecting safety, support, and alignment, and explore how identity lives in posture, boundaries, pacing, and daily choice. When identity shifts, urgency fades, discernment grows, and chasing stops- including in love. Confidence doesn't come from proving; it comes from deciding who you are. We close with a practical takeaway: regulation is magnetism. Safety creates expansion. Through simple nervous system practices and identity reinforcement, we show how small moments, before responding, committing, or seeking validation - are where manifestation actually happens. You don't manifest by force. You attract through regulation. Embodiment is a daily practice, a relationship with your body, and a commitment to self-worth. Becoming magnetic isn't about becoming more, it's about becoming safer in yourself.

What if spiritual growth isn't about belief, manifestation, or bypassing reality — but about understanding how reality actually works? In this episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily sits down with Sarah Elkhaldy, mystic, teacher, and host of Mystery Teachings on Gaia, for a clear, rigorous conversation about free will, karma, destiny, and spiritual evolution. Sarah explains how ancient mystery teachings were designed to initiate real changes in consciousness, not to comfort or inspire. Together, they explore how free will operates between fate and karma, what sovereignty truly requires, and why responsibility is central to spiritual growth. This conversation bridges mysticism and natural law, offering a grounded framework for understanding evolution beyond spiritual aesthetics. They also discuss the concept of homo luminous, the next stage of human evolution, and why presence in the simplest moments can become a profound initiation when awareness is fully engaged. Throughout the episode, Emily and Sarah examine discernment, embodiment, and why not all spiritual paths lead to the same outcomes. This episode is for anyone who feels called to move beyond inspiration and into a deeper understanding of how consciousness evolves through choice, presence, and responsibility. Key Moments 00:00:00 — Free will, fate, and karma explained through natural law 00:03:40 — What mystery teachings were actually designed to do 00:07:14 — Free will as the space between destiny and karma 00:12:50 — Childhood mysticism, imagination, and early initiation 00:16:04 — Presence as spiritual practice (the tea teaching) 00:19:22 — Human evolution and the concept of homo luminous 00:24:58 — Why not all spiritual paths lead to the same outcome 00:31:10 — Discernment, responsibility, and conscious initiation 00:38:40 — What sovereignty actually requires in daily life 00:46:15 — Integrating mystery teachings in the modern world 00:54:30 — Embodiment, service, and living the teachings 01:01:40 — Closing reflections on evolution, choice, and awareness Where This Work Continues If this conversation resonated, especially around sovereignty, discernment, and embodied awareness, this is the kind of inquiry explored inside Ziva Level 3. Level 3 is an advanced mastermind focused on integration, responsibility, and living these teachings in real life, with immersive experiences and pilgrimage work in Greece.

What if the deepest wound you carry isn't about what happened to you—but about whether you ever felt truly held by life itself? In this powerful and intimate conversation, JJ is joined by a longtime soul sister, healer, and registered nurse who shares a deeply transformative experience that healed a lifelong sense of abandonment—not just from people, but from God, Source, and existence itself. After more than 25 years of personal growth, spiritual practice, and emotional work, she realized there was still an existential fracture beneath it all: a quiet belief that life was not fully safe, that love could be given endlessly but not fully received, and that stepping into her full calling might come at a devastating cost. What unfolded during a sacred, carefully held journey became a profound reclamation of safety, trust, and belonging—at the nervous-system and soul level. This episode is not about escapism or quick fixes. It's about: ·         How early experiences can fracture our sense of safety with life itself ·         Why control often masks a fear of annihilation or abandonment ·         What true surrender actually feels like in the body ·         Healing the relationship with Source beyond religion or belief systems ·         Learning to receive love after a lifetime of giving ·         Releasing the fear that being fully seen could destroy you ·         Embodiment, integration, and lasting nervous-system change JJ also speaks to the importance of integrity, preparation, emotional readiness, and sacred containment—emphasizing that this kind of work is not for everyone, not always, and never casual. At its core, this is a conversation about remembering who you are, restoring trust in life, and discovering that you were never alone—not for a single breath. If you've ever felt: ·         Like you don't fully belong here ·         Afraid to take up space or be fully visible ·         Deeply loving but unable to receive ·         Spiritually devoted yet quietly disconnected ·         Called to something more but scared of the cost This episode may speak directly to your heart. This is not an escape from life.It's an invitation into the truth of who you really are. http://Karinrose.love

In this episode, I'm continuing the Empress Method by exploring what comes after effort: surrender.We talk about why the mind and ego are wired to keep us gripping, controlling, and forcing outcomes, and how true embodiment requires learning how to release, not give up, but let life move through us.I share how surrender isn't passive, weak, or spiritual bypassing. It's an embodied practice of trust. A willingness to loosen control, soften the body, and allow the next step to reveal itself instead of trying to force clarity.This episode is for anyone who feels tired of pushing, exhausted by effort, or stuck because they're trying to “figure it out” instead of letting the body lead.This is the Empress learning how to float with the river instead of fighting it._____________________________________________

What if satisfaction itself is a superpower?In this episode of The Vibrant Flow Podcast, Jo explores the art of being a satisfied woman...not through bypassing pain or lowering standards, but through embodied receptivity, spiritual maturity, and nervous-system grounded presence.A satisfied woman is not passive, polite, or people-pleasing. She is rooted, open, discerning, and deeply available for pleasure, beauty, and divine guidance, even in the midst of uncertainty or desire unmet.This episode is an invitation to soften into the present moment and rediscover satisfaction as a skill, a practice, and a way of leading, in your relationships, your body, your faith, and your everyday life.If you've ever achieved “enough” yet still felt restless…If you've noticed how dissatisfaction leaks into relationships and steals joy…If you long to live with more peace, magnetism, and feminine authority…This conversation is for you.

Why do eating disorders and ADHD so often overlap, and why does standard eating disorder treatment frequently fail neurodivergent people? In this episode of Dr. Marianne-Land, I'm joined by Taylor Ashley @taylorashleytherapy, Registered Psychotherapist based in Guelph, Ontario, who specializes in eating disorders, ADHD, trauma, body image, and neurodivergence. Taylor brings both professional expertise and lived experience to this conversation, offering a deeply honest look at how eating disorders can function as coping and regulation systems for neurodivergent brains. Together, we unpack why recovery often looks different for people with ADHD, why hunger cues may never fully return for some, and how approaches like mechanical eating, HAES-informed care, and trauma-informed therapy can make recovery more accessible and sustainable. In This Episode, We Discuss: Eating Disorders and ADHD We explore why ADHD and eating disorders frequently co-occur, including how dopamine regulation, anxiety, and nervous system overload shape behaviors like restricting, purging, and binging. Neurodivergent-Affirming Eating Disorder Recovery Taylor explains why traditional eating disorder treatment models often miss neurodivergent needs and how affirming care prioritizes sensory safety, autonomy, and individualized support. Mechanical Eating vs Intuitive Eating We talk openly about why intuitive eating is not realistic or safe for many neurodivergent people and how mechanical eating can be a supportive, valid recovery strategy. Sensory Processing, Clothing, and Body Image From sports uniforms to fabric textures, we discuss how sensory sensitivities and body shame intersect and how these experiences can quietly drive eating disorder behaviors. Brain Chemistry, Dopamine, and Regulation Taylor breaks down how restricting, purging, and binging can temporarily regulate dopamine and serotonin, especially for people with ADHD, and why this makes eating disorders feel grounding and hard to let go of. Trauma-Informed and IFS-Informed Approaches We explore Internal Family Systems (IFS) and how understanding the protective role of eating disorder behaviors can reduce shame and support long-term change. HAES-Informed and Weight-Inclusive Care We discuss why Health at Every Size–informed treatment matters, how weight-focused care can cause harm, and what to look for when building a neurodivergent-affirming outpatient treatment team. When Inpatient Treatment Is Not the Right Fit Taylor shares why inpatient programs can be unsafe for neurodivergent people when they lack sensory awareness and flexibility, and how intensive outpatient support can sometimes be a better option. Who This Episode Is For This episode is for: People with ADHD and eating disorders Neurodivergent adults navigating recovery Clinicians and therapists working in eating disorder treatment Anyone who feels like standard recovery advice has never fit their brain or body About Taylor Ashley, RP Taylor Ashley is a Registered Psychotherapist based in Guelph, Ontario, specializing in eating disorders, ADHD, trauma, neurodivergence, and body image. Her work centers neurodivergent-affirming, trauma-informed, and HAES-aligned care. Taylor brings lived experience, deep compassion, and clinical insight to her work with individuals seeking recovery that actually fits their nervous system.

Digestion and cravings can all start in your nervous system. Food decisions made from a stressed, sympathetic nervous system state will lead you to specific foods for your survival. You then struggle to digest those foods, not because there is something “wrong” with the food or your gut, but because your digestion has shut down to prepare you for battle. You can start to see that every food behavior you have is trying to do something FOR you. Your body needs attunement, compassion, and safety, not ridicule, shame, and judgment. Getting to know how your unique body functions and what it needs and when can be an empowering experience. And, there are many lenses that you can get to know your body through. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Dr. Shivani Gupta, Ayurvedic practitioner, inflammation expert, and author, about: Ayurveda in a modern contextFood as nourishmentUnderstanding your individual dietary needs based on your constitution and doshasSeasonal eating and circadian rhythmsGrowing in your awareness of your connection with foodYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-to-choose-foods-based-on-your-bodys-constitutionChat with you more next week! With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Dr. Shivani: Website: www.shivanigupta.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.shivanigupta/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dr.shivanigupta Book: The Inflammation Code: https://amzn.to/4sTPjkpSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportAll affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resourcesReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.benso...

In this episode of Lais & The Coach, we're joined by Kristy Eagleton (Australia) — a mastery-method life coach and somatic (body-based) transformational coach who helps people expand into the fullest expression of who they are.This conversation hits the question most people never ask:What if you're not inconsistent… you just don't feel safe?Kristy breaks down how the body stores subconscious patterns, why “self-sabotage” is usually a safety mechanism, and why discipline alone often fails — especially for high performers who can push hard but struggle to slow down.We cover:What somatic coaching actually is (and why the body holds the subconscious)Why “I want to go to the gym but I don't” is usually a block, not lazinessThe difference between willpower success vs. embodied successWhy people hit goals… then slide backward (identity lag + safety set-point)How stress shows up as the real warning sign before burnoutA simple “find safety in the body” practice you can use immediatelyWhy your transformation requires safety — not more pressureIf you've ever felt like you're doing the work… but something keeps pulling you back, this episode will give you the missing piece.Connect with Kristy EagletonWebsite: kristyeagleton.comInstagram: @kristyeagletoncoachSubscribe, like, and share, then drop your questions in the comments.

Walk with me into a powerful story of loss, rebirth, and fierce integrity in this unforgettable episode of Intimate Conversations: Dark Night to Divine Light with Lopa van der Mersch, Founder and returning CEO of RASA, mother, and devoted student of Tibetan wisdom traditions. Lopa returns to the podcast for her first public conversation after years of deep initiation. She opens up about the season that dismantled everything she thought she was. Divorce, single motherhood, stepping away from leadership, and the sudden loss of her home in a devastating fire that erased nearly every external marker of identity. What followed was not collapse, but a profound rebirth. We explore how this identity death reshaped her leadership, her spirituality, and her relationship with compassion. Lopa shares how people pleasing and subtle compromise once shaped her path, and why returning as CEO required an uncompromising devotion to integrity, even when it did not make financial sense. Together, we dive into Tibetan wisdom, nervous system healing, and the difference between compassion that depletes and compassion that nourishes. Lopa reveals the daily rituals that now anchor her life, from unplugging at night and beginning mornings in practice, to allowing devotion to pulse between motherhood and leadership. We also talk about embodiment, pleasure, and beauty as necessities, not luxuries, and how RASA was born not as a product, but as a devotion to creating businesses that heal rather than harm, that nourish both people and the planet. We also talk about: -Identity death and rebuilding a life after everything falls away -Leading with integrity when compromise no longer feels possible -Tibetan wisdom as a refuge in grief, betrayal, and loss -Compassion that includes the self, not just others -Nervous system rituals that support sustainable leadership -Embodiment, sensual grounding, and pleasure as medicine -Conscious business as a path of healing and service This episode is a living transmission of what it means to lead from truth, trust yourself again, and build a life that is sane, humane, and deeply soul-led.

What gets revealed… gets healed.

Not all eating disorder behaviors feel distressing. For many neurodivergent people, certain eating patterns can feel calming, organizing, or regulating rather than intrusive or unwanted. This solo episode explores the often misunderstood difference between egosyntonic and egodystonic eating disorder behaviors, with a specific focus on neurodivergent experiences. Dr. Marianne Miller breaks down why distress is not a reliable indicator of risk, how soothing routines can still create long-term concerns, and how clinicians and individuals can assess eating behaviors without pathologizing neurodivergence. This conversation centers nuance, consent, and nervous system safety rather than urgency or moral judgment. What Does Egosyntonic vs Egodystonic Mean in Eating Disorders? Egodystonic eating disorder behaviors feel unwanted and distressing. They often clash with a person's values or sense of self and can feel out of control. Egosyntonic behaviors, on the other hand, feel aligned with the self. They may feel logical, helpful, or necessary, even when others express concern. This episode explains why egosyntonic does not mean harmless and why egodystonic does not automatically mean more severe. These terms describe internal experience, not medical or nutritional risk. Neurodivergence, Regulation, and Eating Disorder Behaviors Neurodivergent nervous systems often rely on structure, predictability, and repetition for regulation. Food routines, sameness, timing, or tracking can reduce sensory overload and cognitive demand. What feels regulating internally may look concerning externally. Dr. Marianne explores how clinicians and loved ones often misread neurodivergent regulation as pathology, or dismiss concern when distress is absent. This section highlights why both reactions miss the full picture. Why Distress Is Not a Reliable Marker of Risk Many eating disorder assessments rely too heavily on visible distress. This episode explains why distress can fluctuate and why the absence of distress does not equal safety. Neurodivergent people may feel calm and regulated even as food variety narrows, rigidity increases, or nourishment decreases. The episode emphasizes the importance of looking beyond how a behavior feels in the moment and instead examining how it shapes health, flexibility, and daily life over time. Where Is the Line Between Regulation and Harm? This episode directly addresses the question many people ask but rarely get answered clearly. The line is not about whether a behavior feels soothing. It is not about motivation or readiness for change. It is about what the behavior requires and what it takes away over time. Dr. Marianne outlines how to evaluate eating behaviors through function, sustainability, and long-term consequences without shaming, coercion, or urgency. A Neurodivergent-Affirming Approach to Care This conversation is not about taking away coping strategies or forcing change. Removing regulation without replacement can destabilize neurodivergent people and increase risk. Instead, this episode discusses how to preserve safety while reducing long-term harm through added supports, sensory accommodations, and gradual expansion. The focus stays on consent, autonomy, and respect for identity. Who This Episode Is For This episode is for neurodivergent teens and adults who feel confused when eating behaviors feel helpful but raise concern from others. It is also for clinicians who want to assess eating disorders without relying solely on distress or external appearance. If you have ever thought, this does not feel like a problem to me, but other people seem worried, this episode speaks directly to that experience.

Have you ever felt exhausted, not because of overwork, but because of over-managing how you're perceived? This solo episode is not just a reflection. It's a reckoning. In one of the most real straight-talking episodes of Your Passion, Purpose and Personal Brand, Lisa explores the unseen exhaustion that comes from performing who we think we need to be. Whether it's showing up in business, family roles, or social settings, the constant need to curate ourselves for others can leave us quietly depleted. Lisa shares raw, personal stories, from the lessons she learned as the eldest daughter to navigating the aftermath of loss. She names a pattern we've all felt but haven't always trusted: performance as survival. And what's waiting on the other side is not a new self to become... It's the one we've been protecting all along. No hype. No fix-it formulas. This is a refreshingly honest invitation to come home to yourself. Because transformation doesn't always roar. Key Takeaways Performing isn't fake. It's a learned adaptation that once kept us safe. We're taught to manage how we're seen, especially in professional and familial roles. Women and men carry different, but equally heavy, emotional labor. Embodiment is less about doing and more about being, quietly and honestly. The self you protect is not your core. It's a strategy. Letting go of performance opens the door to clarity, peace, and self-trust. Real safety isn't being "fixed." It's being seen. Sometimes, it whispers, "You're already here."

Welcome to the DMF! I'm Justin Younts, and in this episode, Alexandra Beller takes us deep into the role of movement in acting and how it naturally evolves through collaboration between actors, directors, and designers.Alexandra explains that movement isn't something imposed on a performance—it emerges from the relationship between body language, text, and the energetic exchange between characters. She talks about recognizing when something feels “off” in a scene and how that friction can actually be used as a creative tool to strengthen performance rather than something to avoid.Drawing from examples in television, Alexandra discusses how shows like Gilmore Girls and This Is Us use timing, rhythm, and dialogue to generate emotional impact. She emphasizes the importance of authenticity and stakes, noting how a director's guidance around movement can deepen narrative clarity and emotional truth.Throughout the conversation, Alexandra highlights how physical choices can reveal character intention and elevate storytelling. She also introduces her upcoming book, The Anatomy of Art, which explores the artistic process and includes practical exercises designed to help creatives grow through embodied practice.If you're interested in how movement, energy, and intention intersect in performance, this episode offers valuable insight into how physicality can transform acting from the inside out.00:00:00 - Introduction00:00:18 - Collaboration in Art00:01:05 - Analyzing and Understanding Actors00:01:37 - Interpreting and Directing Dialogues00:02:51 - Stylization and Context in Film00:04:39 - Reading Characters and Predicting Outcomes00:06:12 - Understanding Body Language in Acting00:09:14 - Interpreting Non-Verbal Communication00:11:21 - Experiencing Film and Theater00:11:50 - Engagement and Authenticity in Performance00:12:54 - Influence of Global Theater on Work00:13:07 - Working with Directors00:13:55 - Constellatory Thinking in Directing00:15:45 - The Role of Embodiment in Directing00:17:30 - The Art of Choreography00:18:58 - Influence of Global Theater Styles00:21:21 - Praxis Space: An Artistic Community00:21:22 - The Anatomy of Art: A New Book00:21:22 - The Anatomy of Art: A Deeper Dive00:25:47 - The Role of Directing in Acting00:30:00 - Inside the Actor's Studio: Quick Answers00:31:29 - Reading Habits and Preferences00:32:04 - Listening Preferences00:32:04 - Watching Preferences00:33:16 - Discussion on Recent Movies00:33:22 - In-depth Analysis of Superman Reboot00:36:24 - Contact Information and Course Offerings00:37:24 - Closing RemarksCheck out her website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.alexandrabellerdances.org/

— This episode explores the transformative journey of embodiment and nondual realization. These practices, when integrated into daily life, foster a deeper sense of wholeness and oneness. The journey is continuous, with senses becoming more refined, love and compassion more accessible, and the body finding greater balance and relaxation. Challenges like pain and emotional turbulence are natural, but resilience grows, enabling a return to comfort and safety. Embodiment is a gradual process, requiring consistent, mindful practice. This personal journey involves exploring inner depths and attuning to the surrounding world. It emphasizes that each individual is their own teacher, encouraged to approach the process with gentleness, patience, and love. Valeria interviews Judith Blackstone, PhD  — She is the is the founder of the Realization Process, a method of embodied psychological and relational healing and nondual spiritual awakening.  Judith teaches workshops and teacher certification trainings world-wide and online.  She was a psychotherapist in private practice for thirty-five years and before that, a professional dancer.  The Realization Process includes practices for stabilizing in nondual realization, as well as a method of recovering from trauma called Healing Ground, and a method of embodied movement called Stillness Moving.  She is the author of several books, including Trauma and the Unbound Body: the Healing Power of Fundamental Consciousness, The Fullness of the Ground: A Guide to Embodied Spiritual Awakening; The Enlightenment Process, and Belonging Here: a Guide for the Spiritually Sensitive Person.  Her latest book is The Embodiment Workbook for Women: Feel Centered, Grounded and More Fully Alive.

Join Kamal, Mark and me for the Aryaa 2-Week Detox beginning January 26, 2026 at www.aryaaorganic.com. Mark and I will be sharing masterclass videos and recorded teachings, and I'll be doing the detox right alongside you for my third time! Step into a conversation that feels like a sacred masculine council with Kamal Hans and Mark Jenkins on this episode of Intimate Conversations: Dark Night to Divine Light. Two men from very different worlds, united by devotion, integrity, and embodied conscious leadership, join me for a powerful dialogue about purpose, alignment and what it truly means to live and lead from the heart. Kamal shares his courageous journey of walking away from massive financial success in the tobacco industry when his body and soul could no longer tolerate misalignment. That awakening led him to donate everything he had built and devote his life to creating Aryaa Organic, blending ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with modern science, intention, and frequency to create food as medicine. Mark opens up about his extraordinary rise from growing up in Brooklyn during the crack era to joining the Navy at 17yrs, and how physical transformation became the doorway to confidence, leadership and service. His path from training people for free while living in the projects to training celebrities like Beyonce and the late D'Angelo, is a living example of humility, grit and embodiment. Together, we explore why true wellness must be sustainable, why detoxing is about far more than food or weight loss, and how intimacy, vitality and aligned relationships are created from the inside out. We also talk about: -Walking away from success when it costs your soul -Turning money, status and achievement into service and purpose -Food as medicine through frequency, intention and sacred design -Embodiment as the foundation of confidence and leadership -Growing up in survival yet choosing a new path forward -Why fitness alone is not wellness without nervous system regulation -Detoxing emotional suppression, numbing behaviors and old coping patterns -Intimacy as an inside job and the power of embodied generosity -Conscious business, wellness and intimacy as one unified devotion This episode is an invitation to stop outsourcing worth to external success and invest in the inner architecture that creates meaning, vitality, and love.

Welcome to the DMF. I'm Justin Younts, and in this episode, Alexandra Beller dives deep into the four categories of energy: weight, space, time, and flow—and how understanding these elements can radically transform an actor's process.Alexandra explains that each category exists on a spectrum, and learning to work with them gives actors practical, embodied tools instead of vague direction. She addresses a common frustration performers face: when a director asks for something like “more aggressive” without explaining what that actually means. Alexandra breaks down how to translate those abstract notes into clear, physical choices that live in the body.She emphasizes that the body often understands things language can't articulate, and that tapping into physical instinct leads to more truthful, grounded performances. Alexandra also shares her approach to directing, which prioritizes physicality, intuition, and energetic awareness over rigid intellectual analysis.Throughout the conversation, she explores how actors can use energy dynamics to deepen their work—whether in rehearsal, performance, or character preparation. Alexandra also discusses the balance between instinct and analysis, showing how both can coexist to elevate an actor's craft rather than compete with each other.If you're an actor looking to unlock new levels of creativity, presence, and expression, this episode offers powerful tools to rethink how you approach performance.

Nichole Bigley is joined by author, Mayan astrologer, and spiritual guide Christine Hernandez to explore how remembering your roots through ancestral wisdom, sacred time, and lineage healing restores connection — to self, Spirit, and the Earth. In this soulful exchange, Christine shares her early spiritual experiences, including seeing an angel as a child, and how imagination can act as a doorway into the unseen. Together, Nichole and Christine explore how ancestral memory lives in the body, why embodiment is essential for healing, and how spiritual growth asks us to stay present with what arises rather than bypass it. Nichole and Christine explore: Remembering your roots and ancestral wisdom. Lineage healing and sacred time. Mayan astrology as an energetic framework. Gratitude as an Indigenous spiritual practice. Embodiment as a path to integration. When we honor sacred time, listen to the body, and acknowledge our roots, healing becomes a lived practice rather than a concept.

Successful women have this tendency to forget they're successful all the time. And in this solo episode, I dive into one of the most common patterns I see that contribute to this, especially among high-achieving women. You can be making $200k, $500k, $1M, or more and still feel behind, or like it could all disappear at any moment. This is a nervous system pattern that develops when your brain has learned to equate safety with doing more and/or fixing problems. I share how this shows up for so many women (including myself and Molly), what it costs you when you forget your success, and the tangible ways to retrain your body and brain to feel successful.  In this episode, you'll hear: • How business can grow faster than our identity updates • What happens when our nervous system doesn't feel safe with success • The price we pay for forgetting we're successful (and how it shapes our decisions) • The thing that regulates our nervous system and builds self-trust (that most high-achievers LOVE) • The embodiment practices that help our bodies actually *feel* successful • The one hack to make success feel inevitable Episode Links Join my Facebook group Connect with Molly on Instagram Learn more about Molly on her website If you're enjoying the coaching you're hearing, check out my Ultimate Mini Course to Maximizing Results in 1:1 Coaching to learn the proven strategies & foundational tools for creating an in-demand container that gets your clients real results

In this episode, I'm introducing Steps Five (Embody) and Six (Satisfaction) of the Empress Method and sharing how this work was born through lived experience, embodiment, and real-life integration, not theory.We talk about:What it means to embody the version of you who already has what you desireWhy embodiment goes far beyond mindset or visualizationThe subtle shifts that create massive change (energy, presence, posture, choices)How I began embodying my Empress self while still behind the chairUsing symbols, tokens, and micro-changes to anchor identity shiftsWhy satisfaction is a practice, not a future achievementAn introduction to the Empress Sanctuary and the journey insideThis episode is for you if you're tired of thinking about change and ready to become the version of you who lives it._____________________________________________

In this episode, Anna reflects on the moment she realized she didn't need another program, course, or coach—she needed to live what she already knew. She explores the subtle shift from endlessly preparing and collecting frameworks to actually integrating, embodying, and trusting her own wisdom. This is a gentle call, especially to high achievers, to step back from constant "doing," embrace stillness, honor their values, and become the work instead of buying more of it.   Key Points: Realizing it's time to live the work, not buy more of it Love of growth can become a distraction from embodiment Pattern of always preparing but never fully "arriving" Not lacking information—lacking integration and trust True work requires stillness, slowness, and discipline Transformation often looks unglamorous and repetitive Integrity, alignment, and presence aren't what gets "sold" No certification for listening to your body and values Commitment this year: mindset, health, and alignment Letting work move quietly through podcasts and writing Encouragement to stop stacking programs and tools Invitation to integrate what you already know first Key question: collecting wisdom or willing to live it? Embodiment (not more info) is what creates real change Connect with Anna: Email: annamarie@happywholeyou.com / info@HappyWholeYou.com Website: www.happywholeyou.com / https://linktr.ee/happywholeyou Personal Website: www.DrAnnaMarie.com Instagram: @happywholeyou Personal Instagram: @Dr.Anna.Marie Facebook: Happy Whole You LinkedIn: Anna Marie Frank Venmo: @happywholeyou

In my conversation I speak with author Sarah Billups about her new book, 'Nervous Systems,' which explores the intersection of anxiety, caregiving, and spirituality. We discuss the importance of presence in everyday life, the beauty found in ordinary moments, and the interconnectedness of suffering and joy. Sarah shares her insights on self-kindness, the challenges of caregiving, and the need for compassion in a divided world. Our conversation emphasizes the significance of mindfulness, writing, and the pursuit of love and acceptance as essential elements of living a fulfilling life. Takeaways The importance of presence in enjoying meals and life experiences. Anxiety is a common experience, even for those who don't identify with it. Caregiving can be both challenging and beautiful, offering moments of presence. Finding beauty in ordinary moments can lead to deeper appreciation of life. Suffering and joy are interconnected, providing a fuller understanding of life. Practicing mindfulness can help us slow down and appreciate life. Self-kindness is essential for personal well-being and kindness to others. Learning to lose can foster compassion and understanding in relationships. The pursuit of love and acceptance is a fundamental human desire. Writing can transcend time and connect us with others' experiences.

Together, they explore what it means to live with peace in a world gripped by anxiety, unpacking Alan's personal journey from being "a master of anxiety" to learning to cultivate peace.Throughout the conversation, Alan Fadling shares how his upbringing, family dynamics, and spiritual formation shaped his experience of anxiety, illuminating the thin line between caring and worrying. The discussion touches on practical ways to practice the presence of God, the unique role that virtues like humility and gentleness play in displacing anxiety, and the centrality of embodiment—experiencing peace not just spiritually, but in our bodies and everyday lives.Listeners will find hope in the idea that anxiety doesn't need to be eradicated, but can become a catalyst for experiencing God's presence and peace more fully. As always, the episode closes with a heartfelt prayer, inviting us into a life marked not by frantic striving, but by the gentleness and trust that come from walking with the Prince of Peace.Support the showENGAGE THE RESTORING THE SOUL PODCAST:- Follow us on YouTube - Tweet us at @michaeljcusick and @PodcastRTS- Like us on Facebook- Follow us on Instagram & Twitter- Follow Michael on Twitter- Email us at info@restoringthesoul.com Thanks for listening!

SYNOPSIS:In this live Q&A episode of The Brilliant Body Podcast, host Ali Mezey is joined by fan-favorite guest and Longevity Zoologist, Dr. Zoolittle (“Penny”) for a wide-ranging, eye-opening conversation on how we can radically improve the health, happiness, and lifespan of our animal companions.Together, Ali and Penny explore what it truly means to be intelligent caretakers of animals – moving beyond conventional pet care toward a rewilded, biologically informed approach rooted in functional and regenerative medicine. Penny explains why pets used to live much longer, how modern lifestyles disrupt animal biology, and what we can learn from wild animals about instinct, self-medication, nutrition, movement, and rest.The discussion dives into practical and often surprising topics, including animal instinct versus learned behavior, why dogs don't naturally overeat, how feeding patterns affect hormones and longevity, the profound impact of spaying and neutering on animal health, and the importance of species-appropriate diets. Penny also answers audience questions on indoor cats, fasting, raw versus cooked food, enrichment, and how to bring nature back into our pets' lives – even within modern homes.This episode challenges deeply ingrained assumptions about pet care and offers compassionate, science-based insights that empower animal guardians to support their companions in thriving – not just surviving – well into old age. A must-listen for anyone who loves animals and wants to honor the intelligence of their bodies as much as our own.FOR MORE ALI MEZEY:ALI - WebsiteALI - LinkTreeALI BIO: Ali Mezey is a Body Therapist, Family Constellation Work Facilitator, Sexologist and Media Maker with over 40 years of experience.

Welcome to part three of our Mini Manifesting Series. In this episode of Slightly Spiritual, we explore why real change doesn't come from doing more, thinking harder, or perfecting your mindset- it comes from embodiment. Embodiment isn't manifestation or positive thinking; it's the lived, felt experience of identity in the body. When your nervous system feels safe, supported, and regulated, magnetism follows. Your life begins to reflect what your body believes is possible- not just what your mind wants. We unpack the common frustration of “I know what I want… so why isn't it showing up?” and introduce the core truth: you can't out-manifest an identity that doesn't feel safe receiving. This shows up everywhere- relationships, visibility, career growth, money, creativity, and healing. We share personal stories and practices for working through embodiment. From there, we dive into self-worth, identity, and fear beneath the patterns. We talk about why affirmations often fail without embodiment, how the subconscious prioritizes safety over growth, and why fear lives in the body. Resistance, overworking, overgiving, shrinking, or waiting for permission aren't character flaws; they're signals from a nervous system trying to stay safe. The anchor reminder throughout the episode: your life reflects what your nervous system believes is safe- not what your mind desires.

In this deeply personal and powerful episode, Morgan kicks off 2026 by sharing her Word of the Year: Embodiment and what it truly means to live, choose, and be the energy you say you want. After a brutal end to 2025, a cross-country road trip, illness, anxiety, and a Super Full Moon in Cancer that cracked everything wide open, Morgan found herself stripped down to the core. What emerged wasn't just clarity, but a call to stop knowing and start being. This episode explores embodiment not as a buzzword, but as a lived, daily practice that touches your magick, your body, your business, your boundaries, and your future self. In this episode, Morgan covers: What embodiment actually means in a magickal and real-world sense How anxiety, panic attacks, and imposter syndrome pulled her back into her body The Super Full Moon in Cancer meltdown that revealed what needed to change The five embodied actions she took immediately to reset her life and business Setting boundaries in sacred spaces and calling in the right people Why embodiment requires honesty, even when it's uncomfortable How to embody your future self through daily, mundane decisions Releasing people-pleasing and finally taking up space in business This episode is an invitation to stop circling who you might become and start living as who you already are underneath the noise.

In this Mind-Body Solution colloquium, Joshua Bongard and Richard Watson explore a single unifying question: Why get together?From cells forming multicellular organisms, to individuals forming societies, to components assembling into minds and machines - integration is one of the deepest patterns in nature.

This anchoring practice is about creating a daily habit of tuning into your nervous system with curiosity.A few years ago, one of my mentors shared something that has stayed with me. You don't want to attune to your nervous system only when life gets hard or everything feels like it's falling apart. You want nervous system hygiene. A daily relationship. A practice of checking in before you're overwhelmed, reactive, or exhausted. So that when life does get hard, you don't find yourself upside down and completely shaken.Because this is how we change generational patterns.Not in the hot moments of crisis.Crisis will happen. Life will inevitably get hard but this is not the time to try to figure out your nervous system. You don't learn how to anchor a boat for the first time in the middle of a storm. When you've practiced anchoring in calm waters, you intuitively know how to respond when things get rough.It's pretty easy to move through life when things are going well. When our health feels stable, our kids are okay, our relationships feel calm, and life isn't asking too much of us.Our strength isn't tested when life is easy. It's tested when something feels uncertain. When a symptom shows up. When a child is struggling. When we're exhausted, overwhelmed, or carrying more than we know what to do with.And in those moments, most of us instinctively look outward for support. For answers. For something to fix or soothe what we're feeling.But one of the most powerful shifts we can make is realizing that the greatest support isn't external. It's internal.It's the relationship you have with your own body. It's whether you know how to check in. It's whether you can notice what's happening inside of you before you're pushed into reaction.This is what we are doing in this practice.Just learning how to be with yourself, consistently, so that when life gets hard, you know how to loving sit with yourself and respond with confidence instead of reacting with fear.This practice is about connecting your own dots and getting curious about how your system speaks.Thanks for listening!

In this episode, I'm sharing what's alive right now inside The Empress Sanctuary, introducing the foundation of the Empress Method, and previewing what comes next with Pivot and Rejuvenation.We go deep into why “the method” isn't just a mindset framework, it's an embodiment pathway. I talk about beliefs, unconscious thought patterns, and how so much of what we call “manifestation” is really about becoming aware of the thoughts we've been thinking on autopilot for years. We explore how beliefs form early (in the womb and through key childhood windows), how conditioning becomes generational, and why the body is the subconscious mind.______________________________________________

Conflict, suffering, and global instability aren't framed as failures of the system here, they're revealed as catalysts for awakening, testing whether we respond with fear or clarity.We also address why spiritual bypassing keeps people stuck, how vulnerability functions as a stabilizing force rather than a weakness, and why embodiment — not dissociation — is required for real spiritual maturity.If you've felt unsure how to stay grounded, this episode offers clarity.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[02:22] What vulnerability reveals about transformation in the present[08:44] Alec's dream about his grandfather revealed the movement from 3rd to 4th density consciousness[15:19] The Buddha in Red Face story[21:11] Integrating masculine and feminine energies increases the strength of both rather than diminishing either[32:52] When Edmund discovered The Law of One[42:53] The eight densities of consciousness [53:01] Practicing love during division without falling into spiritual bypassing[01:10:01] Why those in service to self are actually serving us by offering opportunities to choose love[01:20:05] How the veil of forgetting and free will allow us to remember our true nature as creators[01:43:58] Distinguishing your own essence from external noise through stillness and Steiner's practices[01:57:35] Why true forgiveness becomes unnecessary when we understand our projections[02:17:16] Why we cannot return to tribal ways and must move forward with new forms of conscious community[02:39:30] What the Germanic and Slavic epochs reveal about humanity's progression from individual thinking to soul-warmed communityRelated The Way Forward Episodes:Beyond Verbal Autists, Telepathy & The Nature Of Thought with Melissa Jolly Graves | YouTubeSoulstice Magic, 13 Holy Nights & Neurogenic Qigong featuring Lara Day | YouTubeMemoirs of a Child Sex Slave: Quest For Love featuring Anneke Lucas | YoutubeResources Mentioned:Law of One | WebsiteBe Here Farm + Nature | WebsiteBeing Human Event | WebsiteBuddha in Redface by Eduardo Duran | BookTranscendent Sex by Jenny Wade | BookThe Red Lion by Maria Szepes | BookMutant Message Down Under by Marlo Morgan | Book or AudiobookClick here to enroll in the 2026 season of Being Human.

In this expansive and deeply honest conversation, Darin sits down with Gregory Schwartz for a wide-ranging exploration of awakening, ecology, food systems, energy, consciousness, and what it truly means to live in right relationship with the planet and ourselves. What begins as a conversation about athletic identity and environmental travel unfolds into a profound dialogue on political ecology, spiritual awakening, mitochondrial intelligence, community-scale solutions, and the collapse of outdated belief systems. This episode bridges the scientific, the spiritual, and the deeply human—offering a grounded yet visionary roadmap for creating a future where health, sovereignty, and connection replace extraction, disconnection, and burnout.     What You'll Learn in This Episode How early athletic identity, injury, and discipline shaped Greg's lifelong path Why travel and "ground-truthing" reality changes how we see the world The concept of the "Planet Doctor" and speaking on behalf of Earth Why data alone doesn't change behavior—and why the heart must lead How food systems, soil health, and gut health are inseparably linked The real reasons environmental solutions stall despite available money and technology Why community-scale action is the missing link between individual and government change How regenerative food systems ripple into health, ecology, and social cohesion The dangers of hyper-productivity and the loss of rest, recovery, and contemplation Why mitochondria are not just powerhouses—but listeners and conductors of energy What spiritual awakening actually feels like—and why it can be destabilizing The collapse of identity as a necessary step toward integration The difference between being a messenger and being the message How awakenings mature from chaos into discipline, embodiment, and service Why optimism comes from living examples, not abstract ideology How small, aligned actions create resonance fields that attract new realities     Timecodes 00:00 – Athletic roots, injury, and the pivot into physiology & nutrition 03:00 – Travel, environmental exposure, and seeing reality beyond data 07:00 – Political ecology, capitalism, and the illusion of separation from nature 12:30 – Food systems, soil health, and gut microbiome parallels 16:00 – Regenerative agriculture, working with farmers, and nuance over dogma 20:00 – Community-scale solutions: food, energy, microgrids, and localization 24:00 – Burnout culture, productivity addiction, and missing rest cycles 27:00 – Mitochondria, flow state, and the intelligence of the cell 30:00 – Spiritual awakening: lightning bolts, breakdowns, and integration 35:00 – Heaven, hell, and altered states as present-moment realities 39:00 – Discipline vs. chaos: maturing the awakening process 44:00 – Being the message vs. delivering the message 49:00 – Embodiment, purpose, and integrating spirituality into real life 55:00 – System collapse, courage, and rebuilding new realities 01:00:00 – Hope, optimism, and why examples matter more than arguments 01:05:00 – Creating resonance through aligned action and community     Find More From Gregory Schwartz Political ecology research and teaching Environmental systems, food sovereignty, and regenerative frameworks Community-scale energy and food solutions Writing and speaking on consciousness, awakening, and integration     Thank You to Our Sponsors Truniagen: Go to www.truniagen.com and use code DARIN20 at checkout for 20% off Fatty15: Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to fatty15.com/DARIN and using code DARIN at checkout.     Join the SuperLife Community Get Darin's deeper wellness breakdowns — beyond social media restrictions: Weekly voice notes Ingredient deep dives Wellness challenges Energy + consciousness tools Community accountability Extended episodes Join for $7.49/month → https://patreon.com/darinolien     Find More from Gregory Schwartz Website: theplanetdoctor.com Instagram: @theplanetdoctor Try Greg's Free Masterclass by signing up here!     Find More from Darin Olien: Instagram: @darinolien Podcast: SuperLife Podcast Website: superlife.com Book: Fatal Conveniences     Key Takeaway "The systems don't change because we lack solutions—they don't change because we haven't changed our relationship to ourselves, to nature, and to each other.
