Podcasts about Emptiness

Most of us long for a quiet mind. But what fills it once the noise is gone? On a solo bike ride across upstate New York, Raghunath finds that solitude alone doesn't bring peace. Left to itself, the mind drifts to its default setting. Raghunath and Kaustubha explore why the path of bhakti points beyond stillness to something fuller. Amid the violence of Krishna's wrestling match in Mathura, the women in the crowd make a startling claim: the greatest yogis aren't hermits on mountaintops, but village women whose hearts are absorbed in love while churning butter and caring for their children. Srimad Bhagavatam 10.44.12–34 ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST? WE ARE COMMUNITY SUPPORTED AND WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO JOIN!

After a career or life change life can suddenly seem empty, or filled with opportunity. Much of that choice is yours. #SupportUkraine

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Rashmeet talks with Sarah Collins, an intuitive life coach and creator of Living Fully with Sarah, about why so many people who look successful on the outside feel anxious, disconnected, or quietly unhappy on the inside. Sarah traces this back to a common inherited belief: that hitting society's markers of success, the career, the title, the milestone, will automatically sort out how we feel inside. When people arrive at those markers and still feel empty, it is often more disorienting than not reaching them at all. The conversation moves into the everyday, easy-to-miss signs of this quiet suffering, from zoning out during a drive to avoiding stillness in the shower, and why the real work is not five-step plans or big breakthroughs but noticing thought patterns in small, ordinary moments. Sarah shares her own path from years of disconnection to a practice of present-moment awareness, and offers a grounded reframe for anyone who slips back into old patterns after finding some peace: it does not mean the work was not real. About the Guest: Sarah Collins is an intuitive life coach, mentor, and the creator of Living Fully with Sarah. After more than two decades in a civil engineering career, she moved into coaching following her own experience with depression and overthinking, and now helps others notice the thought patterns that quietly shape their inner lives, even when their outer lives look successful. Key Takeaways: Believing that external markers of success, money, career, or education, will automatically resolve how you feel inside is a common and often unexamined assumption. Arriving at outward success while still feeling empty inside can be more disorienting than not achieving it, because it forces a confrontation with what success was actually supposed to fix. Much of the suffering underneath anxiety and overthinking comes from the belief that the present moment should look different than it actually is. Quiet disconnection often shows up in small daily moments, like zoning out while driving or avoiding stillness in the shower, long before it shows up as a visible breakdown. Real change starts with noticing small, low-stakes thought patterns, like irritation at another driver, rather than trying to tackle the biggest struggles in your life first. Slipping back into old patterns after a period of peace does not mean the inner work was not real. It is a normal part of the process, not proof that it failed.

In this episode of Growing Hearts, we explore what Pope Leo XIV's encyclical Magnifica Humanitas has to say about artificial intelligence—and, more importantly, what it means for family life. For parents, this raises important questions about the habits we are forming in our children.  How do we teach them to use AI as a tool rather than a replacement for thinking? How do we encourage honesty, responsibility, wonder and creativity in a world where information and answers are always just a click away?  Joining us are Martin Fitzgerald and Charbel Doumit, teachers at Redfield College, who unpack the key messages of Magnifica Humanitas and explore the role of parents and schools in helping young people navigate this rapidly changing world, sharing practical ideas for healthy boundaries around technology.  Key Topics Discussed:  How Pope Leo XIV's encyclical helps us reflect on the opportunities and challenges of this new technological age. How technology can be a valuable tool when it is guided by wisdom and keeps human dignity at the center. Why giving children opportunities to think, wonder, create and work things out for themselves is so important. Forming children in honesty and responsibility: Helping young people use AI in ways that support genuine learning and allow them to take ownership of their work. Practical ways families can create space for conversation, relationships, reflection, reading, prayer and time away from devices. Helping children use AI wisely: Encouraging young people to ask good questions, think critically, check information and use AI to extend rather than replace their thinking.    Join the Conversation  AI is becoming part of everyday family and school life. How can we help our children navigate it without losing sight of what makes us human?  If you enjoyed this episode, please follow Growing Hearts, leave a review, and share it with someone who might find encouragement in today's conversation.  References:  Arthur Brooks YouTube channel  Brooks, Arthur.

Welcome back to Solo Mom's Talk. Today, we are beginning a new series: Navigating the Emptiness.For those of us who have spent decades or more mothering solo, this transition hits with a force you never expected. I remember a moment after my children had grown when I was traveling to recalibrate my life. I was at Whole Foods, and as I picked up a juicy organic plum, I felt a literal stabbing in my heart. It was a wave of guilt so intense I had to stop and ask myself why. I realized that after years of pouring everything into my children, I didn't believe I deserved my own happiness or even a simple piece of fruit.This "guilt of the organic plum" is a signal that a massive life era is ending. Acknowledging these complex, messy emotions is a strategic necessity for your next chapter. This transition is far more than a "sad phase"; it is a critical psychological recalibration. For twenty years, your identity has been fused with your children's survival. Now, as the silence of the house grows, you must move from looking outward at their needs to looking inward at your own. This pivot point is the difference between fading into the background and embarking on a powerful, purposeful next phase.To help you navigate this transition, let's explore the strategic milestones and takeaways for reclaiming your individual identity.Key Takeaways & Timestamps02:15 - Give Yourself Permission to Grieve (But Not Too Long): Grief isn't just for the loss of a person; it's for the loss of a life-era. It is okay to be sad and recognize the reality that you are alone now. However, the strategy here is to grieve with intention. Start by asking yourself exactly which part of solo mothering you are having the most difficulty letting go. Face the end of the era, sit in the quiet for a minute, and then prepare to move forward.05:30 - Shifting from Caregiver to Mentor: Your role as a mother isn't ending; it is evolving from daily "carer" to lifelong mentor and coach. Embracing this change is the absolute secret to a successful relationship with your adult children. They may not need you to manage their laundry or carpools, but they will seek you out as a sounding board. For a deeper dive into this shift, I encourage you to listen to Episode 36, Season 8: Secrets to Communicating with Your Adult Children.09:00 - The "Who Am I?" Audit: During the throes of single motherhood, we often tell ourselves we don't have the time or resources for our own desires. Now is the time for a deep internal audit. To jumpstart this, I used a practical tool: I bought a Red Notebook. This color was significant to me, and inside, I listed every woman I wanted to stay connected with. This simple act of writing helped me focus on building a community of women worldwide. Reclaiming yourself starts with these small, intentional connections outside of your children.15:45 - Building a Living Legacy: Your independence is a blueprint for the next generation. Consider my mother, who in her 80s prioritized the gym and healthy eating to manage her high blood pressure. Her example stuck with me more than any words could. When I travel now, I'm showing my granddaughters that they don't have to stay in one place. They can live anywhere and be anyone. Self-care and goal-setting aren't selfish; they widen your children's perspectives on what is possible for their own lives.Capturing these realizations in writing is the bridge between a vague feeling and a concrete future.The Solo Mom's Self-Discovery ChecklistJournaling is a strategic tool for "writing the vision and making it plain," as we are instructed in Habakkuk 2:2. In this season of life, your "lizard brain" will often attempt to sabotage your progress with whispers of guilt or fear. By documenting your answers to deep questions, you bypass these internal mental blocks. You transition from a reactive state, handling the emergencies of others, to a proactive state where you are the architect of your own happiness.Self-Discovery Questions:[ ] What do I actually enjoy doing for myself when no one is watching?[ ] What specific goals or hobbies have I been putting off for the last 20 years?[ ] What parts of my personality disappeared while I was raising my children?[ ] What have I always wanted to learn, try, or experience (e.g., travel, school, business)?[ ] Who am I when I'm not organizing my life around my children's needs?[ ] What relationships with other women do I want to nurture now?[ ] What is it that I want for myself as an individual woman?As you begin to fill your own "Red Notebook" with these answers, remember that you don't have to find all the answers at once.Resource Spotlight & Call to ActionThe path forward often feels unclear, which is why seeking external guidance, both spiritual and professional, is a strategic move. For years, you co-parented with God through the struggles of solo motherhood. This new season is an invitation to walk with God in a new way. Relying on faith provides the strength to move forward even when the entire path isn't visible. This continuity of faith ensures that the same spiritual tools that helped you survive will now help you thrive.The Book: Courage to Believe: 21-Day Christian Devotional for Single Moms.

It is available on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited in English, Spanish, French, Italian, German, and Portuguese.Special Offer: Every purchase of Courage to Believe includes a free companion workbook with proof of purchase to help you dig deeper into your recalibration.Connect: If you are navigating this transition and need a space to share your thoughts, or if you'd like to request a conversation, use the contact link: https://www.jrosemarie.com/contactYour role as a mother is permanent, but your life as an individual is being reborn.

In this episode, Craig invites us to look closely at our emotions — how they rise and fall, sometimes intense, sometimes mild, like weather moving through the sky.Most of us exert a great deal of energy trying to steer our feelings: chasing the good ones, resisting the bad ones. But Craig points to something deeper than this ordinary pursuit of happiness — what he calls unconditional happiness. Not a peak we reach and hold onto, but a wholeness that was never dependent on our feelings in the first place.Craig explores what it means to let our feelings be exactly as they are, without judging them, managing them, or needing them to change. The episode closes with a guided meditation inviting you to take the radical position that how you feel, right now, is simply fine. Not because your feelings don't matter, but because your wholeness was never resting on them to begin with.To access the full transcript of this episode and discover more resources, visit the episode page on MeditationChangesEverything.com.

A look at how one of Deadwood's most ruthless real life figures reveals a mind built around control rather than cruelty for its own sake. This piece traces the psychology of a man who ruled through fear because safety through any other means felt impossible to imagine. It is an attempt to see the frightened logic underneath the violence, not to excuse it but to understand it.

We pick up the thread from Cana's six ceremonial stone jars and follow it straight into the Beatitudes, where Jesus names the “poor in spirit” as the starting place of the kingdom of heaven, not the evidence of spiritual failure.We talk about kenosis from Philippians 2:7, the Christ-centered practice of letting go, and why a life packed with noise, performance, anxiety, guilt, and self-management can't receive the water God wants to pour in. The key shift is receptive poverty: an honest, unashamed openness before God that refuses to confuse lack with condemnation. We also confront a common distortion in church culture, where emptiness gets mislabeled as shame, and we name how that keeps people stuck, angry, and unable to experience the Zoe life Jesus promises.From there we move into Jesus' teaching in Matthew 6 on worry and provision, and we practice a different kind of prayer: less grasping, more thanksgiving, deeper intimacy. We connect Cana to Exodus 30 and the washing basin as a threshold into presence, then explore how discovered emptiness through loss, illness, or unmet longing can become a spiritual awakening rather than a punishment. We close with Ephesians 3:19 and the promise of being filled to the measure of all the fullness of God, plus the startling reversal at Cana where holiness moves outward from Jesus and transforms what it touches.If you've been feeling dry, behind, or disqualified, let this be a return to presence.

In this video, I share seven strategies I personally use when depression leaves me feeling emotionally numb.I'll walk through checking the lock, scaffolding positive experiences, finding “loopholes,” investing in future joy, apathyception, creating novelty, and what I do when none of those strategies work.If you're stuck in that numb, repetitive “NPC mode” right now, I want you to remember that your current emotional state can make itself feel permanent—even when it isn't.If my podcast has helped, my new book, The Light Between the Leaves, goes even deeperNext Steps:

This teaching was given by Lama Zopa Rinpoche at Lama Tsonkhapa Institute in Italy as part of the Ganden Lha Gyama retreat between September 3-30, 2004.00:00:00 The purpose of the preliminary prayers is to pacify obstacles to achieving full enlightenment and the complete qualities of cessation and realization, for oneself and others.00:11:14 Lama Tsongkhapa emphasized bodhicitta in every teaching. Seeking enlightenment for oneself alone results in a limited realization. One must seek enlightenment to benefit all sentient beings.00:43:52 Buddhas liberate sentient beings by revealing the ultimate truth and reality, which is the teaching of the perfection of wisdom. This is the heart of the 84,000 teachings of the Buddha.01:21:15 Practicing kindness, forgiveness, tolerance, and rejoicing in others' happiness keep the mind peaceful and joyful. Even without deep realizations, these basic practices make one a good human being and bring peace to the world. Ultimately, realizing emptiness—the heart of the Heart Sutra—leads to liberation from samsara.01:41:16 Without depending on the guru appearing in ordinary aspect, even if there are countless buddhas, they cannot guide you to enlightenment. The guru in ordinary aspect is most precious.02:47:42 In daily life, practice mindfulness of looking at the nature of phenomena as empty. This helps control delusions from arising. Even if one doesn't have realizations, strong faith in Lama Tsongkhapa's explanation of emptiness gives hope to realize it in the future.03:27:07 In this retreat, even if one is unable to finish 100,000 migtsemas, if one achieves realization of guru devotion, one will have succeeded. That's the main goal, the main objective of doing this Lama Tsongkhapa Guru Yoga. We're not looking for the number of mantras; we're looking for realizations.04:07:03 Rinpoche leads extensive dedications.Find out more about Lama Zopa Rinpoche, his teachings and projects at https://fpmt.org/

Heat can make people do some strange things. It can change your mood, cloud your judgment, and even affect the way you treat other people. Scientists have discovered that hot weather has a surprisingly powerful influence on the human mind—and the effects show up in places you would never expect. Listen as I explain what's really going on and why it's important to know. https://www.apa.org/monitor/2024/06/heat-affects-mental-health More people today say they feel their lives lack meaning and purpose than at any point in recent decades. Why? Has modern life quietly stripped away something essential—or are we simply searching for fulfillment in all the wrong places? And if purpose really is the key to a happier life, where does it actually come from? There is no better person to explore these questions with than my guest Arthur Brooks. He is a professor at Harvard Business School, one of the world's leading experts on happiness and human flourishing, a nationally syndicated columnist, CBS News contributor, and co-author with Oprah Winfrey of the bestselling book Build the Life You Want. His latest book is The Meaning of Your Life: Finding Purpose in an Age of Emptiness (https://amzn.to/4yUyVTp). If you've ever wondered what truly gives life meaning—and why so many people struggle to find it—you'll find this conversation fascinating. Every few months it seems we're told to stop eating one food and start eating another. Fat is bad—until it isn't. Carbs are the problem—unless they're not. With so much conflicting advice, it's no wonder so many people have no idea what a healthy diet actually looks like. According to Daniel Lieberman, much of what we've been taught about food is based on myths, misconceptions, and oversimplified thinking. Lieberman is Chair of the Department of Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University and author of Fed Up: A Hungry Person's Guide to the Story and Science of Food and Diets (https://amzn.to/4btal2d). He explains what the science really says, why nutrition has become so confusing, and how understanding our evolutionary past can help us make smarter decisions about what we eat. Have you ever worried that everyone could tell you were nervous? Maybe before giving a presentation, going on a date, or walking into an interview? Most of us assume our anxiety is obvious—but is it? The answer may surprise you.

This sermon was preached by Rev. Marc Choi on Sunday, August 9, 2026  at Redeemer LSQ. The Scripture reference is Ruth 1:1-5, 19-21.

Life is not always what it seems. What we think is good for us often isn't, and what we think is bad is often good. The same is true in spiritual life. Jesus taught us many counterintuitive principles. This week we'll look at one of his most important counterintuitive principles, as we continue our sermon series on "How to Build Beautiful Relationships the Jesus Way."

We continue our series based on master Tong'an Changcha's 'Ten Talks of Unfathomable Depth', and this month we tackle two more of the talks, the sixth and seventh, called The Song of Returning Home and The Song of Not Returning Home. The short texts says:    6. The Song of Returning Home Don't be distracted by the King of Emptiness when you are still on the Way. You must drive your staff forward, moving on until you reach home. If you travel for a long time like clouds and water, don't get attached to it. Even in the deep recesses of snowy mountains, don't forget your mission. Ah! I regretted that in past days my face was like jade. And I lamented that at the time of my return my hair had turned white. Returning to my old home with dangling arms, there was no one who recognized me. Also, I had nothing to offer my parents.   7. The Song of Not Returning Home Having the intention of going to the source, of returning to the origin, is already a mistake. Essentially, there is nowhere to settle down, no place to call one's home. The ancient path through the pines is covered with deep snow. The long range of mountain peaks is furthermore blocked by clouds. When host and guest are tranquil and serene, everything is incongruous. When lord and vassal are united, there is wrong in the midst of right. How will you sing the song of returning home? In bright moonlight, the dead tree is blooming in front of the hall.   The talk was given during the Treeleaf monthly Zazenkai, on August 7th, 2026. More information on treeleaf.org

Homily for the Eighteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time - August 2, 2026

Why do so many organizational change efforts fall short, even when leaders know change is necessary? In this episode, Kevin talks with Kristy Ellmer about how change actually works and why successful transformation requires more than a plan, a process, or a compelling business case. Kristy explains that leaders often confuse alignment with true agreement, and that real progress begins when teams are willing to slow down, surface disagreement, and clarify how the change will happen. She also shares that involvement alone is not enough; people need agency and ownership to commit to building something new. Kevin and Kristy discuss the role of rituals, stories, and symbols in reducing cognitive load and helping people connect emotionally with the change, as well as why leaders must "earn the take-up" rather than assume people will adopt new behaviors simply because the change makes sense. About Kristy Ellmer Kristy Ellmer is the co-author of How Change Really Works: Seven Science-Based Principles for Transforming Your Organization. She is a Managing Director and Senior Partner at BCG and a former Chief Transformation Officer, with decades of experience leading multiyear transformations inside global organizations. She leads BCG's Transformation practice and co-founded BCG's Behavioral Science Lab and specializes in translating academic research on human behavior into practical change and transformation programs that deliver sustained results. She has led over 30 transformations in 27 countries in 14 sectors from mining to retail and previously was a manager at Delta Airlines during one of the most exemplary transformations in business history. Kristy's completion of the 29029 Everesting Challenge—climbing the vertical height of Mount Everest 19 times in under 36 hours after months of disciplined training—embodies the same change principles she applies professionally: sustained commitment, deliberate design, support systems, and faith in process over motivation. Her TED Talk on navigating change with confidence has been seen by over half a million people. She has an MBA from Mercer University and a B.A. from Roanoke College. She's based in Boston.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy! Check out the full episode: https://lewishowes.com/podcast/rainn-wilson/ Rainn Wilson moved to New York at 20 to be an actor, get the girl, and finally escape the rules of the Baha'i faith he was raised in. He got all of it. Then he woke up at 3am asking what his life was even about. That gap between "everything is working" and "I feel hollow" sent him back to the books he'd walked away from. Not just one. The Bible. The Koran. The Bhagavad Gita. The Dhammapada. He wasn't looking for religion. He was chasing the one question underneath all of it: is any of this random, or does it mean something? That search became the seed of SoulPancake.
