Podcasts about journaling prompts

Beginning today, and for the next six weeks in the On Being podcast feed and Substack, we're opening a reflection/course experience curated by Krista and drawing upon her conversations with several visionary humans: adrienne maree brown, Naomi Shihab Nye, Ocean Vuong, Joy Harjo, Joanna Macy, and Ross Gay. Together, they extend rich and actionable invitations for a muscular, reality-based hope. They offer ways of seeing and living to lay our hands and our hearts, our imaginations and life force on the generative possibilities of life in this time.  Journaling Prompts for Session 1Preparing inwardly after listening, ask these questions:Right now, today, what is filling you with despair? And what is giving you hope?What is hope? Answer this question through the story of your life.Who have been the “live human signposts” of muscular hope in your life across time?  Hold their faces and the qualities of their presence in your heart and in your mind's eye in the days to come.We've created a beautiful journal for the whole seven weeks, with full-size printable pages, that you can download for free HERE.A Possible Way to Organize This ExperienceTake each week's brief listening offering, each around 15 minutes long, as a meditation to move through the week ahead. And as none of the great virtues — and certainly not hope — is meant to be carried alone, we encourage you to undertake this experience alongside others, perhaps your life partner or family or colleagues or friends, book group or study group.For example, you could:●  Listen to one Wisdom Practice (roughly 15 minutes) — together or separately — around the same time each week. Listen again and/or read the transcript as often as is useful.●  Carry the ideas, invitations, and journal prompts for the session into your ordinary interactions of the days that follow.●  Commit to some time journaling every day, even it's just for a few minutes or a few words.●  Meet with or Zoom/call your companion(s) at the end of the week to share, converse, commune.The Hope Portal and this series are adventures in opening the deep enduring teaching that lives inside the 20 years of On Being. We would be so grateful if you would let us know how it goes for you and how it might be refined, by writing to us at mail@onbeing.org.Sign yourself and others up for The Pause to be first to know about all things On Being and to receive Krista's monthly Saturday morning newsletter, including a heads-up on new episodes, special offerings, recommendations, and event invitations.

BIO:Although Emily was previously trained and certified in Acupressure, Reiki, and other healing modalities, she found herself caught up in the chaos of corporate life for years- along the way having two children and working seven days a week, her personal perfect health storm came knocking. After going from doctor to doctor, countless testing and diagnoses, Emily turned to Nervous System Regulation through Primal Trust Academy and has transformed her health and her life. She now works as a 1 on 1 mentor for the academy and has been featured on podcasts and brought her experience and resources to instagram as Nervous System Nerd to arm others with the tools, knowledge, and deep self understanding that helped her take her health and her life back. SHOWNOTES:

Ever catch yourself mindlessly scrolling through your phone when you could be fully present with your kids? OR getting some "me time" in the morning before they're awake?In this episode, I share the eye-opening conversation I had with an overwhelmed working mom who confessed that a "quick win" she'd LOVE to experience: to use her phone less and be more present in her life.As busy moms juggling careers, households, and relationships, our phones often become both our escape and our secret saboteur. That quick dopamine hit of checking social media or emails might feel good in the moment, but it's stealing precious time you'll never get back with your family—and with yourself.

Somatic Sexologist, Energy Alchemist and Intimacy Coach Cynthia Cramlett explores the transformative power of understanding and knowing one's "no." She shares personal experiences, particularly in dating and relationships, where societal pressures led her to say yes when she wanted to say no. Cynthia emphasizes that saying no is a form of self-empowerment and clarity, not rejection. She provides insights, tips, and journal prompts to help listeners establish healthier boundaries. The episode focuses on themes of self-awareness, emotional healing, and somatic practices, encouraging listeners to honor their true desires and cultivate a more authentic life.

Send us a textIn this “Best Of” series, we revisit the impactful episode "There Is Nothing Wrong With You," originally part of a “Chasing Normal” series. Many of us have struggled with the belief that we are inherently flawed or broken, especially those of us on a trauma-healing journey. This episode sheds light on how the belief that something is wrong with you is not a truth but a trauma response—a coping mechanism developed to maintain a sense of control and safety in challenging environments. This episode provides insights on identifying, understanding, and ultimately letting go of this false belief so listeners can return to their authentic selves. This episode also offers journaling prompts, practical exercises, and reframes to help you step out of shame, step into self-acceptance, and experience genuine healing and growth.Key Topics Covered:Understanding that “something is wrong with you” is a trauma-born false beliefHow this limiting belief undermines self-esteem, confidence, and relationshipsThe connection between trauma, coping mechanisms, and negative self-perceptionJournaling exercises to uncover the roots of self-doubt and fearStrategies to feel safe without relying on self-blameReplacing limiting beliefs with affirmations of safety and self-worthResources & Mentions:Returning: A Collection of Meditations and Reflections on Self-Love and HealingMindset Mastery Coaching Program: jerryhenderson.orgFree Self-Assessment Guide Timestamped Chapters:00:00 – Introduction & Best Of Series Overview01:33 – Revisiting “There Is Nothing Wrong With You”04:41 – Examining the Feeling That Something Is Wrong With You05:49 – Understanding the Belief as a Trauma Response & Coping Mechanism07:32 – How Trauma Instills a False Sense of Being Flawed10:00 – The Destructive Loop of Reinforcing Negative Beliefs12:38 – How the Belief Influences Relationships, Opportunities & Success14:33 – Letting Go of Limiting Beliefs and Facing the Fear of Change19:24 – Strategies for Healing and Shining Light on False Beliefs20:38 – Recognizing the Voice of Fear & Countering Resistance21:11 – “Maybe the Only Thing Wrong is the Belief Itself”22:53 – Journaling Prompts to Identify and Release Core Beliefs28:01 – Finding Alternatives for Feeling Safe & Creating a New Internal Reality29:41 – Affirming Safety, Letting Go of Beliefs & I am grateful you are here,JerrySetup Your FREE Coaching Call:Schedule Call1:1 Transformational Coaching:Learn More Here!How is your relationship with yourself going?Get your free-self assessment guidePick up your copy of my book:Returning: Meditations and Reflections on Self-Love and HealingWatch On YoutubeWebsite:www.jerryhenderson.orgGet Your Free Weekly Healing Tips!Instagram: @jerryahendersonLinkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/jerryahenderson Disclaimer

Dec Energy Forecast Theme 3: Personal Reflection – The Catalyst for Transformation: The Energy of Expansion: A Bridge to New Beginnings In this third segment of our December Energy Forecast series, we dive into the transformative power of personal reflection. Amidst collective and personal evolution, you may notice old interests, relationships, and habits falling away, making room for experiences that more authentically reflect who you're becoming. This theme acknowledges the tender, in-between space—like standing on a bridge between past and future—where acknowledging what no longer fits invites fresh expansion and new beginnings. What You'll Learn: Reflection as a Catalyst: Understand how honest self-inquiry becomes the pivotal force guiding you from who you've been to who you're becoming. Navigating the In-Between: Learn to honor the liminal phase where old patterns dissolve and new opportunities emerge, trusting that this process—though sometimes unsettling—carries you toward deeper authenticity. Inner Alignment & Collective Evolution: Discover how personal transformation isn't isolated; as you realign with your truth, you contribute to a greater global awakening. Tools for Embodied Integration: Explore journaling prompts, visualizations, and energy practices that help you gently release what's outgrown and welcome the possibilities ahead. Key Insights & Practices: Self-Care & Compassion: This isn't a time for forcing clarity. Give yourself permission to rest, nurture yourself, and move at a pace that respects your inner rhythm. Journaling Prompts for Clarity: What aspects of my life feel out of alignment with my current truth? What am I ready to release, trusting that doing so creates space for something more genuine? What values and qualities do I want my future experiences to embody? What qualities, energies do I want to embody as I move forward? Visualizing the Light Bridge: Imagine standing on a bridge—the past receding behind you, the future unfolding ahead. Let the energy of expansion guide each step forward. Creating Receptive Space: Embrace silence and stillness, allowing insights to surface naturally rather than chasing them. Intentions and Affirmations for Expansion Setting intentions and affirmations can help anchor you during this transitional period: Intentions: o I intend to honor this transitional space as fertile ground for my next chapter. o I intend to release what no longer supports my growth, making room for aligned opportunities. o I intend to trust my inner wisdom as I navigate the bridge between my past and future. Affirmations: o I am allowed to change, grow, and evolve at my own pace. o I trust the unfolding of my journey and welcome new possibilities with an open heart. o My personal transformation contributes to the collective awakening. o I embrace the space between what was and what will be, knowing it is rich with potential. Repeat these intentions and affirmations silently or aloud. Feel their resonance within you. Over time, they become touchstones that guide you with assurance and calm. Why This Matters Now: As old layers fall away, you're preparing yourself to step into a future that resonates more deeply with who you truly are. By embracing personal reflection, you cultivate the courage and clarity needed to take meaningful steps forward. This process not only enriches your own journey but also amplifies the collective awakening taking place around us. In this time of profound change, reflection isn't just a tool; it's a Light Bridge to your evolving identity. Trust the process of release and renewal, knowing that with each honest insight and gentle breath, you pave the way for greater authenticity, purpose, and heart-led growth. Much love, care, and gratitude, Henri

In this episode, I dive into a powerful mindset shift that will transform how you approach your business results. We explore the concept of limiting beliefs and how the stories we tell ourselves, like not being "ready" or "good enough", often become the biggest obstacles to achieving our goals. I share examples from my own journey and client experiences, illustrating how focusing on problems can hold you back, while leaning into belief and inspired action creates quantum leaps. This episode is for you if you're ready to stop attributing meaning to why success isn't happening and start believing in your ability to manifest exactly what you want. Get ready to challenge your ego, release excuses, and step into the magnetic energy of your desires.

As I approach my 41st birthday, I'm reflecting on the journey of self-love and authenticity. This episode is a deep dive into the shifts that come with age, the desire to show up authentically, and the challenge of embracing our true selves in a world that often demands otherwise. I share personal stories about the changes I've noticed in my life—from witnessing friends navigating divorce to the reality of aging parents. Birthdays always bring up big feelings, and this one has me thinking deeply about what it means to truly live authentically. It's my belief that we all share a universal desire: to be seen, accepted, and loved just as we are. If you've ever struggled with self-worth, battled limiting beliefs, or felt the pressure to fit into someone else's expectations, this episode is for you. I share insights on how community, movement, and intentional practices can help us reconnect with our most authentic selves. Let's explore how to challenge our inner critics, embrace our weirdness, and create lives filled with joy, love, and true connection. Journaling Prompts to Explore: What do you need most right now?

Simply put, self-limiting beliefs are negative thoughts and perceptions you have (either consciously or unconsciously) about yourself that get in the way of your goals and dreams. A belief is just a thought you've had over and over. So, to overcome your self-limiting beliefs, you need to have new thoughts that you think over and over. But how do you do it? Today, you'll learn how to identify your self-limiting beliefs, the big mistake almost everyone makes when they're trying to change, and how to shift these negative thoughts into helpful beliefs so you can create the love, success, growth, and joy you've been craving.____________________________Full blog and show notes: https://abbymedcalf.com/how-to-identify-and-overcome-your-self-limiting-beliefs Grab my list of Journaling Prompts to Get Clear in Your Relationships: https://abbymedcalf.com/relationship-journal-prompts Learn how to create and hold healthy, loving boundaries.

This practice can awaken your appreciation for your own adaptability, align you with the positive outcomes of past changes, and remind you of the magickal potential that resides in every transition.By the end of today's magickal action, you'll have experienced how reflecting on a significant change can shift your perspective, boost your confidence in facing future changes, and set a tone of growth and resilience for the days ahead.-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --All of the Magick:The A Pinch of Magick App:IPhone - download on the App StoreAndroid - download pn the Google PlayOur (free) Magickal Community: Facebook GroupMagickal JournalsFive Minutes of Magick JournalAmazon UK Amazon.comWebsiteRebeccaAnuwen.comInstagramFor Magickal Living: Click hereFor a Sacred Pause in Nature: Click here

So whether you're hearing this for the first time or revisiting it, I'm excited for you to dive back into the insights and the transformative strategies of journaling.

-What is the inner critic?  -How can we stop listening to or warring with our inner critic? -How can practicing self-compassion help us befriend our inner critic? Welcome to Episode 165! This week, Rachel Koutnik, LCSW, is back to teach us all about the befriending our inner critic through self-compassion! In the episode, you'll hear Rachel walk us through what the ‘inner critic' is, how we may be codependent with our inner critic, and why that may contribute to our codependency in our relationships. Rather than combat or try to rid ourselves of our inner critic, Rachel suggests befriending it through the use of self-compassion. We conclude with tangible suggestions from Rachel on how to cultivate a self-compassion practice. It's a must-listen!

More on this week's guest: Rachel Koutnik, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, is a therapist in private practice working mostly online in Los Angeles and is licensed in both CA and IL. Her approach to therapy is both relational and holistic with a focus on helping adolescents, adults, couples and families repair attachment trauma while integrating healing for the mind, body and spirit.  See Rachel on March 16 at the IOCDF Conference: https://iocdf.org/programs/conferences/  Check out Rachel's website for her individual therapy and group offerings: www.rachelktherapy.com  More deets on the episode:  We begin with revisiting Rachel's definition of codependency that she expands on through the lens of our relationship with ourselves. She describes how we look outside of ourselves for approval and reassurance and behave how we think others want us to be.  Rachel opens up about codependency in her own life and how she has been more codependent in relationships where her ‘inner critic' was more at the forefront of her mind. She recalls laughing when things were not funny, having physical intimacy when she wasn't ready, and privileging the other person's needs above her own.  We shift focus to Rachel's work to help her clients befriend their inner critic. She utilizes self-compassion, based off the work of Kristen Neff, that defines the practice as mindfulness and how we meet our suffering. Rachel defines self-compassion as developing a healthy relationship with suffering through loving, spacious awareness of all our parts. Rachel asserts how self-compassion helps us stop shaming ourselves while we heal which is a mandate to truly healing! Rachel defines the ‘inner critic' and shares how we can be just as codependent with this internal part as we are in our external relationships. In order to befriend our inner critic, Rachel asserts how we need to recognize it's origin (how old is this part?) then engage in the reparative work: naming it, separating from it, using mindfulness, let compassion in, and provide compassion the way you might to a friend.  We conclude with Rachel listing how we can check in with our bodies when using self-compassion: take turns being the observer, the self-compassionate part, and the inner critic part of us to give all three space. Then, to provide compassion, we can tune in to our breathing, provide soothing though, go through a body scan, engage in movement/exercise, and incorporate tapping via Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).  Thank you for coming on again Rachel! And thank you dear listener for listening! PLEASE: Rate.  Review. Subscribe.  Share. We need more ratings on Spotify! TY!

Momentous offers high-quality supplements and products across a broad spectrum of categories, and I've been testing their products for months now. I've been using their magnesium threonate, apigenin, and L-theanine daily, all of which have helped me improve the onset, quality, and duration of my sleep. I've also been using Momentous creatine, and while it certainly helps physical performance, including poundage or wattage in sports, I use it primarily for mental performance (short-term memory, etc.).Their products are third-party tested (Informed-Sport and/or NSF certified), so you can trust that what is on the label is in the bottle and nothing else. If you want to try Momentous for yourself, you can use code Tim for 20% off your one-time purchase at LiveMomentous.com/Tim. And not to worry, my non-US friends, Momentous ships internationally and has you covered. *This episode is also brought to you by LinkedIn Jobs.
