Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me.

In this episode, Lauren is joined by Professional Priestess Lindsay Schroeder for a powerful conversation about what it really means to be a witch. Together they explore the fear and stereotypes tied to the word “witch” — and how those old stories have shaped collective understanding. “A witch follows the religion that has no name. That is nature-based, that is alchemy, that is that in between the proton, neutron, and electron, that truly is the connection to the elements that create each and every one of us.” Professional Priestess Lindsay Schroeder Lindsay offers a reframe of witch as someone connected to nature, the elements, and the cycles that shape us all, rather than the caricatures of fairy tales and film. This episode invites listeners to release outdated perceptions and reconnect with the timeless wisdom that has always been present.

A guided meditation to reconnect with your wise inner guide and return to calm, clarity, and trust - with Taoist monk and teacher, David James Lees.In this guided meditation, we gently reconnect with your wise inner guide (Shen) — the quiet, steady voice of inner truth beneath self-doubt, comparison, and inherited conditioning.Through breath, stillness, and compassionate awareness, this practice helps you recognise the difference between the Inner Child's fearful voice and your authentic inner knowing. Rooted in Taoist wisdom and wu wei (effortless effort), it supports Inner Child healing, emotional clarity, and living with greater integrity and flow.This meditation is for anyone seeking calm, alignment, and trust in their own inner guidance.

In this warm, high-vibe interview, Megan (creator of Solar Glow Meditation and widely known online as the “dowsing rod girl”) shares how a surprise Reiki attunement sparked a powerful awakening—and accidentally launched her into a viral path of teaching intuition in motion. Megan breaks down how she uses dowsing rods as a practical divination tool for clarity, communication with spirit, and connecting with nature (including “talking to trees”), while also weaving in meditation, Reiki-style guided healings, and dreamwork for deeper insight. The conversation opens into star origins, ET contact, disclosure timelines, and a live dowsing session where she calls in Archangel Michael for guidance—touching on heart-based grounding, protection, extreme weather trends, energetic awakening waves, and what it means to become “ambassadors” of personal disclosure. Megan also previews what she'll be doing at New Living Expo: a rapid talk, live audience Q&A with the rods, plus a hands-on workshop where attendees can learn how to get their rods moving and strengthen their intuitive signal.

What lives beneath the surface of your winter mind? In this gentle guided meditation, host and meditation teacher Meryl Arnett invites you into the quiet wisdom of winter's stillness. Inspired by the children's book "Over and Under the Snow," this practice explores what rests beneath the metaphorical snow of our busy lives - the feelings, needs, and truths that are warming, waiting to be revealed in their own time.Perfect for anyone seeking deeper self-awareness during winter months or when something feels "fine" but you sense there's more underneath.About the soundscape you hear throughout the episode: The winter sounds in this meditation were recorded by acoustic ecologist Nick McMahan in the Sinlahekin Valley of Washington State, on the lands of Indigenous peoples known today as the Colville Confederated Tribes. Deep in winter, this remote valley feels more wild and isolated than any other time of year. The soundscape captures the stunning quiet beauty of steep snow-covered slopes, small frozen ponds, and the sense of exaggeration each environmental sound holds during winter's cold, dark days.The photos you see throughout this meditation are also from Nick McMahan.Sign up for my newsletter at http://eepurl.com/jjPrV2 to receive free mini meditations and soundscapes each week, along with creative musings and more.In 2026, Our Mindful Nature will release seasonal series rather than weekly episodes, allowing for richer, more in-depth explorations of meditation and mental health topics.

Join host Martin Hewlett for a gentle, transformative session dedicated to shifting your perspective from lack to abundance. In this episode of Calming Anxiety, we explore the concept that our mindset is like a pair of glasses—sometimes we just need to wipe away the smudge of stress to see the world clearly again.Whether you are struggling with low mood or simply looking to build a resilient morning gratitude routine, this guided meditation will help you "clean the lens." Together, we will use mindful breathing to clear the mental fog and powerful positive affirmations to rewire the subconscious mind for peace.In this episode, we cover:Breathwork for Clarity: Using the breath to blow away the "grey dust" of the day and draw in mental clarity.The Lens of Gratitude: How to gently shift your focus to notice the small miracles in everyday moments.Nervous System Regulation: allowing the beauty of the world to soothe your anxiety and bring you instant peace.Martin's Top 3 Tips for a Happier Day: To help you keep this "lens of beauty" clear, try these practical mindfulness hacks today:Look Up: When you walk outside, shift your eyeline to the sky or treetops. Changing your view physically changes your mood.Find One Texture: Ground yourself by touching something real—a wooden table or the bark of a tree—to connect physically with the present moment.The 5-Second Pause: Before you eat or drink, pause for just five seconds to appreciate how good it looks. A tiny moment of gratitude makes a huge difference.Affirmations used in this session:"I choose to see the beauty of the world around me"."I notice the small miracles in everyday moments"."I allow the beauty of this day to bring me peace"."I am grateful for the life that surrounds me".Support the Podcast: If you find value in these sessions, you can join our supporters group for just $5 a month to get all episodes ad-free.

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!Airports buzz. Cabins hum. And yet your body often stays braced—as if it still needs to steer. This guided meditation offers something different: a chance to soften, settle, and let yourself rest while you travel.Designed especially for long flights and extended journeys, this practice invites you to let the seat support you, the motion carry you, and your nervous system stand down from vigilance. We begin by easing the body—relaxing the jaw and tongue, noticing points of contact, and grounding into natural breathing without forcing pace or depth. Each exhale becomes an invitation to release a little more effort.To quiet the mind, you'll be guided to gently set aside thoughts, plans, and to-do lists—placing them in an imagined overhead compartment or beside you for later. This isn't about letting go of responsibility, but about traveling light for a few minutes. A slow, soothing body scan follows, moving from head to toe and guiding the body from tension into heaviness and ease.Sleep is welcome if it comes, but not required. Rest alone is enough.Whether you're on a long flight, a train crossing time zones, or a late-night drive as a passenger, this meditation is here to help you experience stillness inside movement—and arrive feeling calmer, lighter, and more at ease.If this practice supports your journey, consider subscribing, sharing it with a fellow traveler, or leaving a brief review so others can find their way to rest on the road.If you are enjoying the show please subscribe, share and review! Word of mouth is incredibly impactful and your support is much appreciated! Support the show

Take some time today to replenish yourself. Amidst the chaos on the surface of the planet, in our thoughts, emotions, and body, we often meet life with subtle resistance. Beneath this effort, there is a deep stillness that remains untouched. This guided meditation invites you to soften inner resistance and gently meet the moment as it is. Ground yourself in the quiet space of the Heart, where presence, safety, and ease naturally reside.   If you enjoy this audio you can save the link somewhere in your phone, or make a playlist for it so you have access to this practice with one click.

In this meditation, we sat with our guides who had some very gentle yet specific messages for us.Remember who you truly are. You don't need to become anyone. It is not about the doing... it is about the being. Don't do an act of kindness for the payoff. If you are going to do an act of kindness do it from the kindness in your heart. Act with grace because grace flows through you.Become a beacon of grace. If you were a beacon of grace what would you do differently with your day? How would you spend your time? Be love... Be grace.Just for today be Grace.What if your guides for the guided meditation had no idea where Spirit was going to be leading them? Join Dr. Ruth Anderson and Teri Angel as they explore a spirit-inspired and spirit-led meditation. Enjoy the journey with them as they open their hearts, minds, and awareness to whatever the learning might be. Join us in this alternate form of meditation. What message is waiting for you?

Explore how early conditioning shapes your inner voice, and how to return to your wise, authentic self.Do you know whose voice is guiding your decisions? In this Life Lesson, we explore how the Inner Child absorbs the beliefs, expectations, and emotional rules of authority figures — and how those inherited voices can quietly shape our adult lives. Through Taoist wisdom, we learn how to distinguish conditioned thinking from our true inner knowing and wise inner guide, reconnect with our inherent worth, and gently return to authenticity, clarity, and alignment. This is an invitation to stop living by inherited rules and begin trusting the quiet truth within.With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).Discover our online consultations, events and shop: https://www.wuweiwisdom.comSubscribe to David's FREE Journal: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/Other related teachings on our YouTube channel that will help you:SHEN (THE SPIRITUAL SELF) PLAYLIST https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zIBmp50wYcmU7jCBLp1Qvl-jShen (The Spiritual Self) Guided Meditation https://youtu.be/BM2CNYvI45Y?si=KLQdxovVFqbxDYNaINNER CHILD PLAYLIST  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zICGLRS1b7q1HSJhZRash5qqIs there a question you'd like answered on the show?
