Day 3 of 90- Waiting to Exhale be Remembered Genesis 40:1-23; Genesis 41:1   The prison is where Joseph's purpose grows up. Pre-prison, Joseph is just a dreamer. In prison, Joseph becomes an interpreter. Post-prison, Joseph becomes governor. How do you put faith in a God who appears to have forgotten about you? Sometimes, God will allow people to falsely accuse you so that when you get to the prison, you can graduate from dreamer to interpreter.    From Dreamer to Interpreter: Have you ever had to set aside your own dreams to help someone else? How did that experience impact you?   What's the difference between having a dream and helping others understand theirs? Which one do you relate to more right now?

Hey Intentional Wellness Warrior!  In light of Good Friday being today and Easter Sunday, I bring you this breath prayer. Jesus conquered all sin and death on the cross for you and for me and for the world. AND THEN he rose 3 days later . His resurrection from the dead , victory over all gives us life. He is Risen and alive and that means as we receive this gift- alive in us! As we live life, we get wrapped up in the stress of it all- even burnt out on stress - we have to remember Jesus is alive in us and gives all peace, joy, hope, love, strength, LIFE. He lives in us SO we can live. Sit with this truth. Breathe it in and speak it out and as you do listen to what God is speaking back to you about Jesus Christ being alive and living in you. Verse: “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.” – Galatians 2:20 inhale: Christ is alive… Exhale: and lives in me. Breathe in LIFE. Happy Resurrection Sunday! Shalom Shalom,  Xx, Shan  ……CONNECT……

Are you caught in a cycle of parental guilt, frustration, and overwhelm? In this important conversation, Dr. Jennifer Reid interviews clinical psychologist Dr. Alissa Jerud about her groundbreaking book Emotion Savvy Parenting. If you've ever found yourself yelling when you promised you wouldn't, or felt exhausted from constantly entertaining your children, this episode offers genuine relief. Dr. Jerud shares science-backed strategies for navigating the intense emotions of parenthood without letting them control your actions. Rather than offering unrealistic "perfect parent" advice, she provides practical tools that acknowledge the messy reality of raising children while honoring your own emotional needs. This conversation is essential listening for any parent who wants to break free from emotional reactivity and build more connected relationships with their children.Key PointsWhat is Emotion-Savvy Parenting?* Learning to feel strong emotions without letting them dictate your actions* Navigating the "roller coaster" of parenting emotions effectivelyPractical StrategiesStop Entertaining* Parents don't need to provide constant entertainment* Allow children to develop independent play skills* Benefits both parents (saves energy) and children (builds independence)The CARE Skills for Emotional Regulation* Cool with ice - Use cold to rapidly reduce heart rate* Activate your body - Brief exercise to discharge energy* Relax your muscles - Tense then release for effective relaxation* Exhale slowly - Focus on long exhales rather than deep breathsMindful Presence* Be fully present during calm moments with children* Simply observe children without judgment or intervention* Use routine moments (bath time, bedtime, car rides) for connectionExpert Insights* Exposure therapy breaks the habit of anxiety avoidance* DBT skills help with mindfulness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance* Control attempts typically backfire; acceptance is more effectiveQuote to Remember"Emotion savvy doesn't mean not ever feeling strong, unwanted emotions... But I want to help parents learn they can feel those feelings and not need to let those feelings dictate what they do or don't do."About Dr. Alissa JerudDr. Alissa Jerud, PhD is a mother of two, a licensed clinical psychologist, a Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Pennsylvania, and the author of the forthcoming book, Emotion-Savvy Parenting, a compassionate, science-informed guide for relating more skillfully to painful, unwanted emotions.In her private practice, Dr. Jerud specializes in highly effective, exposure-based treatments for anxiety-related disorders, as well as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills.

D-Day. The day everything changed. The day I discovered my husband was having an affair. For me, it was a random weekday — ordinary in every way... until it wasn't. I remember the moment I saw the truth staring back at me — a message, a phone call, a slip-up. It felt like time slowed down. My heart pounded so hard I could hear it in my ears. My knees buckled. I felt sick. And in that split second, my entire reality shattered. Maybe you've experienced something similar. Today's episode is a tender one. I'm inviting you into one of the most personal parts of my story — what really happened to me on D-Day — the day I discovered my husband's affair. So grab a cozy spot and maybe a cup of tea... this one's for the woman who's just found out, or the one who's still living in the aftermath. Let's breathe together. Inhale His peace. Exhale the pain.

There is a trembling beneath the surface of things. A hum. A rising. The world is not breaking— She is becoming. The old systems, built on separation, scarcity, and fear, are now being held up to the light. Not to shame them. But to release them. Like dead leaves falling from a tree that knows it's time to bloom again. The collective soul of humanity is standing at a threshold— one foot in the story of survival, and one foot in the story of remembrance. Remembering the interconnectedness of all things. Remembering the truth that we belong to one another. Remembering that softness is not weakness, and that love is the highest intelligence of the universe. There is grief in this process. Deep, ancestral grief. Grief for what was lost, for what was silenced, for what was never allowed to be. But grief is not the end. Grief is the alchemical gateway. Right now, the Earth is inviting us not to rush into action… but to feel what we've numbed. To sit in sacred pause. To restore what was severed. And in the quiet… A new frequency is anchoring. It sounds like children laughing without fear. It smells like wet soil after rain. It feels like bare feet on sacred ground, and hands reaching out instead of pulling away. The Earth is not asking for perfection. She is asking for presence. For communion. For sacred care. She is calling in the healers. The artists. The guides. The ones who walk between worlds. The ones who remember how to listen to trees and stars. If you are reading this, you are one of them. Your role is not to save the world. Your role is to love it back into harmony— one breath, one word, one act of grace at a time.      Ritual of Collective Remembrance & Recalibration  A Soul Alchemist Ceremony for the Healing of Earth and Humanity You may do this alone, with a small group, or invite others to create a circle across time and space. Use sacred tools that feel aligned: a candle, earth, water, a crystal, or flower petals. Set the space with intention. This is a holy act.   1. Light the Flame of Presence Hold a candle in your hands. Say aloud: “I call in the light of remembrance. I am here to feel, to honor, to restore. I offer this light to the Earth, to the ancestors, and to the generations yet to come.” Place the candle before you and take three deep breaths—into your belly, your heart, your womb or root.   2. Touch the Earth (or a stone, leaf, or soil) Feel her pulse. Whisper: “You are not forgotten. I am listening now. May my body become a bridge between worlds. May my actions become prayers.”   3. Water of Release Have a small bowl of water nearby. Gently touch it. Close your eyes and silently offer a grief, a fear, a pain—your own, or the world's. Whisper: “I offer this sorrow to the waters of change. Let what is ready to flow… flow. Let what is no longer mine… be washed away.” Dip your fingers in the water and anoint your heart, crown, or third eye.   4. Breath of Recalibration Inhale deeply: Truth. Exhale softly: Love. Repeat three times. Then say: “I now align with the rhythm of Earth. I remember who I am. I choose to walk forward as a vessel of harmony.”    5. Speak the Earth's Invitation Say aloud: “I am not here to save the world. I am here to love it back into balance. One breath, One word, One act of grace at a time.”   6. Closing Gesture Place both hands over your heart. Smile softly—not from the lips, but from the soul. Imagine a golden ripple moving outward from your heart across oceans, lands, skies. Say: “And so it is. And so we rise. Together.” Blow out the candle with reverence, and feel the quiet echo of peace settle in your bones.

"The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way."            - Marcus Aurelius Bring your awareness to the past week. Gently review the events that occurred, not with judgment, but with detached observation. Allow images and memories to surface, like scenes from a film. As you reflect, pay close attention to the moments that presented challenges, obstacles, or setbacks. Begin to shift your perspective to the Stoic quote: 'The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.' THIS WEEK'S THEME: The Stoic's Gaze Welcome to this week's meditation series: "The Stoic's Gaze: Perceiving Opportunity in All Challenges" In each episode this week, you're guided with the mental tools to transform challenges into pathways for personal growth and virtuous living, directly inspired by Stoic philosophy. Each session focuses on a core Stoic virtue and offers practical techniques to shift perspective and find hidden opportunities within adversity. The series begins by establishing the foundational Stoic understanding that external events are largely outside your control, but your responses and interpretations are entirely within your power. It emphasizes that challenges, rather than being mere obstacles, are opportunities to practice and strengthen Stoic virtues like kindness, patience, resilience, wisdom, courage, and self-control. Each meditation session will guide you through a process of reframing your perception of challenging situations. You're invited to observe your initial emotional reactions without judgment, and then intentionally shift your focus to the potential for growth and virtue. The guided meditations will incorporate visualizations, affirmations, and contemplative practices that embody Stoic principles.

"Let us prepare our minds as if we'd come to the very end of life. Let us postpone nothing.

Send us a textBefore we dive into uncovering the language of the Universe, I'd love for you to pause, take a deep breath. Exhale. And remember. Thich Nhat Hanh wrote, "Our breath is the bridge connecting our body and our mind. Returning to our breathing, and following it all the way through from the beginning to the end with awareness, brings body and mind back together, and reminds us of the miracle of the present moment."When was the last time that, while the outside world hollered for your precious attention and energy - distracting - annoying, that you caught an inkling, felt a deep knowing that if you didn't shut all that crap out and pay attention you were going to miss something important?Maybe what you would've missed was a message from a loved one that passed on years prior. Or it was a whisper not to enter an intersection on that yellow light, or it was a song on the canned music at the grocery store or mall that has always held deep meaning for you, or it was a reminder that you didn't lock your home; or that you haven't heard from your daughter in too long, or a reminder to schedule that vet appointment for your dog.What came to your mind? In that moment you witnessed the Bridge; a message was sent, seen and understood. STILL through all that outside noise, you heard the message! Acknowledging that helps it to happen again. And again. In less subtle ways, too.That juicy in-between space is not just on display at times when a set of supernatural conditions are met, like, say, a full moon, Halloween, summer solstice, sunrise, the passing of a loved one, etc. The Bridge (or the veil as some prefer to call it) is always there. What's different about those woo-sanctioned moments is we go into those times EXPECTING a message, anticipating the delivery of some deeper knowing, divine guidance, or communication with an ancestor. We are pre-primed to witness the supernatural. It's the energetic equivalent of setting our radio dial to a clear station. Well, bring that open mind to each fresh day! Give it a try, and see if you experience more of it. I wonder if that's the importance of morning minutes? Making a daily practice of sitting in silence to hear direction? Confirmation? That feels true. I'll check in with you on this next week, and let's see if we can normalize hearing from the Universe. This week, we turn to the familiar across the globe - the symbols, stories, and signs that seem to resonate across time and geography. These hints to the language of the Universe even come in the form of melody. Ever heard a song that felt like an old friend you lost track of for a bit? Seen a bunch of references to rabbits, that spotted one out on a walk and wondered if the animal represented some deep knowledge?What to read/listen/watch NEXT!The Present, Curious Cat Episode on BuzzsproutHave you tried the GoodPods app yet?

"You have power over your mind – not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength." - Marcus Aurelius, Roman Stoic, author of "Meditations," and former Roman Emperor Welcome! Today, we focus on the Stoic virtue of self-control. You'll be guided to see temptations and distractions as opportunities to strengthen your inner discipline. THIS WEEK'S THEME: The Stoic's Gaze Welcome to this week's meditation series: "The Stoic's Gaze: Perceiving Opportunity in All Challenges" In each episode this week, you're guided with the mental tools to transform challenges into pathways for personal growth and virtuous living, directly inspired by Stoic philosophy. Each session focuses on a core Stoic virtue and offers practical techniques to shift perspective and find hidden opportunities within adversity. The series begins by establishing the foundational Stoic understanding that external events are largely outside your control, but your responses and interpretations are entirely within your power. It emphasizes that challenges, rather than being mere obstacles, are opportunities to practice and strengthen Stoic virtues like kindness, patience, resilience, wisdom, courage, and self-control. Each meditation session will guide you through a process of reframing your perception of challenging situations.

"I DIED?!?!" We are here with Tony-nominated actor, L. Scott Caldwell. You Might Know Her From Insecure, Lost, The Fugitive, Bad Monkey, How to Get Away with Murder, Waiting to Exhale, The Net, Soweto Green and the Broadway production of Joe Turner's Come and Gone. L. Scott gave us all the scoop on acting opposite Crystal the Monkey in Bad Monkey, bringing her personal story to Rose's story on Lost, and working with August Wilson on the Broadway production of his 1988 play Joe Turner's Come and Gone. All that, plus being killed off as Molly's mom on Insecure (she forgot!), working with Uta Hagen and the Negro Ensemble Company, and what she learned from Joe Pantoliano on the set of The Fugitive. L. Scott was a total dream and we hope you love it as much as we did!  Patreon: www.patreon.com/youmightknowherfrom Follow us on social media: @youmightknowherfrom || @damianbellino || @rodemanne Discussed this episode: Rob Lowe as Stone Phillips and Shaggy Sarah Michelle Gellar as Posh Spice (Chris Kattan as Mel Be) and Debbi Matanopolous The Curious Case of Natalia Grace made into a mini-series with Ellen Pompeo called Good American Family Anne currently binging 2 seasons of Making a Murderer on Netflix  Parker Posey in The Staircase  True Crime Con featured Jon Benet Ramsey's father was the keynote speaker My Favorite Murder We tried to convince Jiggly Caliente to do Lorena Bobbit on Snatch Game Cult-y video Damian sent Anne on TikTok We are currently reading Sarah Schulman's books: People in Trouble, Stagestruck L Scott plays Jodi Turner Smith's grandmother in Bad Monkey Fear of cats: Ailurophobia Had a chemistry test with Crystal the monkey L Scott played Molly's mom, “CeeCee” on Insecure  Dies in A Million Little Pieces, The Gridiron Gang, Insecure Played Rose Nadler of Rose and Bernard on the phenomenon known as Lost Co-starred in big 90s movies like The Fugitive, Devil in a Blue Dress, The Net, Waiting to Exhale Aggie Rodgers was the costume designer for The Fugitive Richard Jordan dies while shooting of The Fugitive  and was replaced with Jeroen Krabbé Soweto Green written by Mfundi Vundla NEC: Negro Ensemble Company Was named “Nombula” = bringer of the rain Won a Tony for her role In Joe Turner's Come and Gone on Broadway  A Play of Giants at Yale Rep 1984  NEC members: Barbara Montgomery, Frances Foster, Michele Shay, Adolph Caesar, Graham Brown, Charles Brown, Samm-Art Williamson OG company: Hattie Winston, Judyann Elder, Rosalind Cash, Denise Nicholas,  Men: Norman Bush, Allie Woods, Robert Hooks,  NEC: The Room and it moved to Broadway the next year Uta Hagen promoted some movie called The Other on Mike Douglas show Got injured going toe to toe with Viola Davis in How to Get Away with Murder Has played a judge, lawyer or doctor more times than she can count Tom Petty music video for “Don't Come Around Here No More” and Genesis “Land of Confusion” video with giant Reagan puppets

Be guided as you explore and harmonize the masculine and feminine energies within each individual, based on the 7th Hermetic Principle of Gender. It's not about physical gender, but about the balance of active and receptive forces that exist in everyone and everything. The meditation guides the listener to become aware of these energies within themselves. It encourages them to identify the qualities associated with each: masculine (active, logical, doing) and feminine (receptive, intuitive, being). It emphasizes that achieving inner balance is key, as an overemphasis on either energy can lead to imbalance. The meditation aims to facilitate a sense of wholeness by encouraging the integration and harmonization of these energies THIS WEEK'S THEME: This week, we embark on a journey into the ancient and profound wisdom of Hermeticism. Hermeticism, attributed to the legendary figure Hermes Trismegistus, is a spiritual and philosophical tradition that has influenced thinkers for millennia. It offers a unique perspective on the nature of reality, the interconnectedness of all things, and the power of the mind.

Simply put, what you do has consequences. Every choice you make, every action you take, sets something else in motion. It's like planting seeds. If you plant apple seeds, you'll get apple trees. If you plant weeds, you'll get weeds. Not only do your actions matter, but also your intentions. Why are you doing what you're doing? A kind intention is more likely to lead to a positive effect than a selfish one. Be guided in a meditation practicing the sixth key prinicple of Hermeticism.

Be guided in a meditation about finding your "truth voice" and understanding that it's okay for it to have ups and downs, just like everything else in life. We're using the Hermetic idea that everything moves in cycles (like waves or a pendulum) to understand how our communication works. Be guided to be kind to yourself and understand that your voice is a part of you, and it's always changing, just like everything else.

Today, we delve into the heart of duality with a meditation focused on the Hermetic Principle of Polarity: 'Everything is Dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites; like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature but different in degree; extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; all paradoxes may be reconciled.' 2  We'll use the Anjali Mudra, the gesture of prayer and unity, to explore and harmonize the opposing forces within and around us. This mudra symbolizes the bringing together of duality, reminding us that opposites are not separate but interconnected aspects of a greater whole.

Be guided in a meditation encompassing the dynamic heart of Hermetic philosophy: The Principle of Vibration. 'Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates.' This principle reveals that the universe is not a static entity, but a ceaseless dance of energy, from the subtlest thoughts to the grandest celestial bodies. Everything is in constant motion, vibrating at different frequencies. Understanding this principle empowers us to recognize that we are not passive observers, but active participants in this vibrant dance. We can learn to consciously shift our own vibrations, influencing our reality and aligning ourselves with the harmonious rhythms of the cosmos. In this meditation, we'll explore how to connect with the vibrational nature of existence and harness its transformative power.

Today, we delve into one of the most fundamental principles of Hermetic philosophy: the Principle of Correspondence, often expressed as, 'As above, so below; as below, so above.' This powerful concept reveals the profound interconnectedness of all levels of existence—from the vast cosmos to the smallest atom, from the spiritual realms to the physical world. It teaches us that patterns and structures are mirrored across all planes, and that by understanding one level, we gain insight into all others. In this meditation, we'll explore how this principle manifests in our lives, cultivating a deeper awareness of the intricate web of connections that weave our reality together. THIS WEEK'S THEME: Today, we embark on a journey into the ancient and profound wisdom of Hermeticism. Hermeticism, attributed to the legendary figure Hermes Trismegistus, is a spiritual and philosophical tradition that has influenced thinkers for millennia.
