MQC - MuthaQueen Cypher | Episode 1: "The Priestess Has Arrived" A SiStarz SideNote on Divine Timing:Have you ever built something sacred — something that took everything you had — and then held it back because you were afraid you'd already missed your moment?That's exactly where this episode begins.In this official opening episode of MuthaQueen Cypher, IAYAALIS — Kemetic High Priestess, Shamanic Oracle, and your Higher Love Doctor — gets REAL about the moment she almost didn't drop this episode.  And what the stars confirmed is truly something every healer, artist, teacher, and truth-teller needs to hear. In this episode:

Meditating on God is one of the ways we pursue God and His Presence expressing our seeking, thirsting, longing, looking, and expecting to see/encounter God's power and glory. And we know, when we seek Him, we will find Him. Biblical meditation includes reciting Scripture aloud, whispering Scripture to oneself, repeating it continually verbally or inwardly, pondering on it, visualizing it in our mind's eye (imagination) and reflecting on how to obey it. It engages the mind, the mouth and the imagination and results in life change or life transformation. We share ways to practice Biblical meditation: 1. Scripture repetition throughout the day, 2. Meditative journaling, 3. Scripture memorization with reflection, 4. Meditating during daily work, 5. Word meditation before sleep. We also share about Communal meditation.

Fluent Fiction - Korean: Finding Clarity: Jihoon's Meditative Journey at Jirisan Temple Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/ko/episode/2026-05-13-07-38-19-ko Story Transcript:Ko: 봄빛 속, 지리산의 맑은 공기와 함께 벚꽃이 흐드러지게 핀 사찰에서, 지훈은 이날의 명상 세션에 참석하기로 마음먹었다.En: In the glow of spring, at a temple adorned with cherry blossoms blooming riotously, Jihoon decided to attend that day's meditation session amidst the fresh air of Jirisan Mountain.Ko: 지훈은 35세의 소프트웨어 엔지니어로, 일과 삶에서 점점 멀어진 느낌을 받고 있었다.En: Jihoon, a 35-year-old software engineer, felt increasingly distanced from work and life.Ko: 그는 이해할 수 없는 불안과 매일 싸우고 있었다.En: He was battling an incomprehensible anxiety daily.Ko: 지훈의 마음은 복잡했다.En: His mind was complex.Ko: 그는 명상의 가치를 의심했고, 그와 같은 실용적인 사람이 영적인 것에서 무엇을 얻을 수 있을지 모르겠다고 생각했다.En: He doubted the value of meditation and wondered what a practical person like him could gain from something spiritual.Ko: 그러나 지리산의 차분한 환경은 그의 마음을 서서히 열게 했다.En: However, the serene surroundings of Jirisan Mountain slowly opened his mind.Ko: 소영과 민준은 지친 표정을 한 채 옆에 앉아 있었지만, 희망을 잃지 않는 눈빛을 보였다.En: Soyeong and Minjun, sitting beside him with tired expressions, still showed a glimmer of hope in their eyes.Ko: 사찰의 승려는 그들을 이끌며 친절한 목소리로 말했다. "내려놓으세요. 잡고 있는 것들을 놓아보세요."En: The temple's monk, guiding them, spoke in a kind voice, "Let go. Release what you are holding onto."Ko: 지훈은 승려의 말을 들으며 천천히 눈을 감았다.En: Listening to the monk, Jihoon slowly closed his eyes.Ko: 처음에는 머리속의 생각들이 쉼 없이 떠다녔다.En: Initially, thoughts in his head floated ceaselessly.Ko: 하지만 시간이 지나며 먼 산의 풍경처럼 그 생각들이 멀어지기 시작했다.En: But as time passed, those thoughts began to recede like a distant mountain landscape.Ko: 승려의 목소리가 다시 들려왔다. "자아를 내려놓으면, 참된 자아를 만날 수 있습니다."En: The monk's voice echoed again, "By letting go of the ego, you can meet your true self."Ko: 그 때, 지훈은 자신의 직업과 삶을 깊게 성찰했다.En: At that moment, Jihoon deeply reflected on his job and life.Ko: 그동안 무겁게 짓눌렸던 갈등이 가라앉고, 마음이 맑아지는 느낌을 받았다.En: The conflicts that had weighed heavily upon him subsided, and he felt a clarity of mind.Ko: 그는 자신이 원하는 것이 무엇인지 서서히 깨닫기 시작했다.En: He slowly began to realize what he truly wanted.Ko: 그 순간, 그의 머릿속에 선명하게 그려진 미래의 모습이 눈앞에 펼쳐졌다.En: In that moment, a vivid image of his future unfolded before him.Ko: 명상이 끝나고 지훈은 조용히 눈을 뜨며 옆에 있는 소영과 민준을 바라보았다.En: As the meditation session concluded, Jihoon quietly opened his eyes and looked at Soyeong and Minjun beside him.Ko: 그들의 얼굴에도 차분한 미소가 떠올랐다.En: Peaceful smiles also appeared on their faces.Ko: 지훈은 깊은 숨을 내쉬며 말했다. "이제 알 것 같아. 내가 원하는 삶이 무엇인지."En: Taking a deep breath, Jihoon said, "I think I know now. What kind of life I want."Ko: 지리산의 승려와 이 아름다운 자연은 그에게 새로운 길을 열어주었다.En: The monk of Jirisan and the beautiful nature opened a new path for him.Ko: 지훈은 이제 두려움 없이 자신의 가치를 찾는 일을 시작할 용기가 생겼다.En: Jihoon now had the courage to start seeking his own value without fear.Ko: 사찰을 떠나며 그는 결심했다. 세상의 기준이 아닌, 자기 삶의 기준을 찾겠다고.En: As he left the temple, he resolved to find standards not set by the world, but his own life's standards.Ko: 이 번뇌에서 벗어난 평화로운 마음은 그에게 새로운 삶의 시작을 알렸다.En: Freed from this turmoil, the peaceful heart signaled to him a new beginning.

Perfect Days, a wonderful movie.

I love this piece of music so much. It's bright yet meditative and has some gorgeous scale progressions helping you to soar and fly. Listen for sacred connection and for relaxation and meditation. It's heart opening music. Along with these beautiful melodies is a soft soundscape of rolling waves, just there in the background, not overpowering, just present. They bring comfort and peace. ★ Support this podcast ★

Das Mahlen von Kaffeebohnen mit einer Handmühle ist für mich ein wichtiges und meditatives Morgenritual. Entnommen aus: Reetta Ranta "Die Magie nordischer Rituale", Goldmann Verlag, München 2025

Those who wish to comprehend and eliminate the internal causes of suffering must cultivate meditative concentration: the ability to serenely focus attention upon one thing with continuous application, so that the mind settles, thoughts diminish, and clarity opens one's consciousness. In this state it becomes possible to receive insights or visions with one's imagination: the capacity to perceive non-physical imagery representing objective reality. By receiving vivid images about our internal universe, one can explore the hidden psychological causes of suffering, so that by extricating their roots, we liberate ourselves from afflictive conditions and emancipate our true nature. Yet if we lack serenity, the lake of the mind becomes perturbed and incapable of reflecting the heavens within. Explore some tenets, anecdotes, and principles for cultivating serenity to help prepare for meditation, examining the problems with superficial associates and the troubles of family ties; advice for social interactions; reasons for cultivating non-attachment, meditative serenity, empathy, and bodhichitta; Buddhist and Gnostic notions of internal silence and psychological solitude so as to conserve energy; reflections to diffuse the powers of lust; meditations on impermanence, wealth, and death; methods for strengthening our relationships with others, society, and divinity; and much more.  Resources and References: https://chicagognosis.org/lectures/meditative-concentration-establishing-serenity-to-access-insight

Reviewing meditative absorptions of the form realm and formless realm.

What actually happens in the "micro-moments" of your meditation? We often use broad terms like awareness or presence, but the fine-grained texture of our practice often remains a mystery—even to ourselves. In this special episode of Kind Heartfulness, we are joined by Dr. Martijn van Beek, Associate Professor at Aarhus University and Board Member of Mind & Life Europe. Martijn is an expert in micro-phenomenology—a unique interview technique designed to uncover the hidden dynamics of our subjective experience. In this episode, we try something a bit different: • The Practice: Erric settles into a short meditation session to create a fresh "lived experience." (We edit out the 15 minutes of silence) • The Interview: Martijn leads him through a live micro-phenomenological interview, demonstrating how to peel back the layers of a single meditative moment. • The Theory: We discuss how this technique bridges the gap between ancient contemplative wisdom and modern science. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or just curious about the workings of the mind, this episode offers a rare, "under-the-hood" look at how we experience our own consciousness. Martijn van Beek is an Associate Professor of Anthropology at Aarhus University, Denmark. Having previously spent many years working and conducting research in Ladakh and elsewhere in the Himalayan region, his current research explores contemporary forms of contemplative life and the encounter between contemplative traditions, especially Tibetan Buddhism, consciousness research, and modernity. Martijn specializes in ethnographic and (micro-) phenomenological perspectives on meditation. He lives at Vækstcenteret, a contemplative community in Denmark.

In this episode, I share what my life was like before, during, and after a spiritual awakening that occurred while I was sober and active in Alcoholics Anonymous. At 27 years old, two years sober, and deeply immersed in A.A./12 Steps, something happened that completely altered how I experienced reality. While working in a warehouse listening to music, the sense of “me” collapsed. Time, identity, and space dissolved, revealing an unmistakable unity of self, other, and existence itself. In this talk, I reflect on: Life before awakening: addiction, avoidance, and chasing what feels good. Early sobriety and how I used the 12 Steps as a way to manage discomfort. The spiritual experience that changed my relationship to thought, emotion, and identity. Why I suddenly began seeing thoughts instead of being lost in them. How this experience was misunderstood in A.A. and why it concerned others. The absence of language, framework, or teachers at the time. The years that followed: creativity, self-creation, and eventual collapse. Why existential despair came after awakening, not before. This is not a teaching, a prescription, or a claim of enlightenment. It's a personal reflection on sobriety, awareness, and what happens when insight arrives without a container to hold it. If you're interested in meditation, non-duality, recovery, or the intersection between spirituality and real life, this conversation is for you.

On this week's episode of Out and About, Dr. Mae Gilliland of ArtsPartners of Central Illinois talks with Crystal Potthoff, artist and facilitator of ‘Breaking Free', a community art project centered on the meditative folk art of pysanky.

This conversation centers on choiceless awareness: the recognition that there is no personal will, or control, and that everything—thoughts, emotions, actions, reactions—is arising spontaneously on its own. I talk about: Life before awakening and why revisiting that contrast is important. How recovery, 12-step work, and gratitude shaped my relationship to suffering. Why meditation is not something you do, but something that's already happening. What it means to rest as consciousness itself—without effort, discipline, or belief. How seeing the illusion of free will naturally softens judgment and resistance. Why this recognition doesn't eliminate emotions, but instead loosens their grip over time. This dialogue is less about philosophy and more about direct experience. Nothing shared needs to be believed, or agreed with, intellectually. It's an invitation to notice what's already happening—internally and externally—and to explore what it's like to simply relax into being. In the next episode, I'll share the full story of what life was like before, during, and after my waking-up experience. If you have questions, or want me to clarify something, please let me know in the comments—I'm happy to take another crack at it.

Imagine a process that can bypass our dominant, loves-to-be-in-control brain and open a subtle energetic pathway to help us sense and feel the many dimensions of the Universalis human. A deeper contemplative process of feelings and intuition, not fixed mental boundaries.In the newest Universalis Project conversation, Aviv Shahar, Karen Heney and Kyriaki Nikandrou explore the potential of a guided meditative process in expanding access to our universal nature. They demonstrate several pathways in an abiding circle meditation, a process that focuses the creative energy generated in the shared ecology of a group contemplation.The circle meditation is a healing journey of inner discovery that invites us to metabolize and release pain and trauma. It builds inner conductivity and activates latent capacities and sense organs that enable deeper registrations of our universalis possibility. Other insights from Aviv, Karen and Kyriaki include:By abiding with inquiries in collective circle meditations, we unlock different processes, shifting from mental references to a whole person melting, merging, and harmonizing of different feelings and inner states.We are not one thing; we are multiple lives within; a soul, spirit and many other capacities. A struggle emerges as this orchestra faces the demands of an exterior world while forever harmonizing the interior life.Meditative abiding engenders greater awareness of the subtle bodies of somatic and mental processes. Each organ has its energetic body; together they constitute a configuration of presences.We shrink and separate ourselves by all sorts of modern conventions, but spiritual traditions and texts invite us to realize we are the crown jewel of the universal process here on this planet.The nature of universal love is that we are never alone, even when we feel lonely. The spiritual source of this love is forever around us with healing and possibility. This conversation is part of the continuing Portals discovery into what is emerging on the frontiers of human experience in this time of profound change.

We are not likely to find the Universalis human arising in silicon, or in sophisticated computer chips. My conviction, my belief, is that the birthing of a new human possibility, the suggestion is that the Universalis permission, the Universalis possibility, the Universalis activation, occurs inside us and in between us.” (Aviv)“Wherever you will find a group of people who are interested in how we humans are evolving, both to solve the existential problems that the meta-crisis brought to us, and even more so to do so by unlocking our latent potential, the way we go about cultivating our interior inquiries and contemplations, individually and collectively, we are leaning into these possibilities, which is, how can we be part - a co-creative, co-participative part - of the rise of a universal human?” (Aviv) RESOURCES MENTIONED Portals of Perception WebsiteAviv's LinkedIn Aviv's TwitterAviv's WebsiteThe Universalis Project #15: Pathways to Universal Life

Send us a textWhat if love didn't start with your effort but with God's presence moving toward you? This guided, unhurried reading of 1 John 4:7–21 explores a radical claim—God is love—and shows how that truth can steady anxious hearts, transform relationships, and make faith visible in everyday life.We walk through the text line by line, hearing how the sending of Jesus redefines love as concrete and self-giving. Together we consider why living in love means living in God, how the Spirit anchors our assurance, and what it looks like to “live like Jesus” in the world. The passage dismantles the fear of punishment, replacing it with confidence rooted in perfect love that drives out fear. Then it turns the spotlight on practice: if we say we love God, we must love the people we can see—especially the difficult ones. That challenge is not a burden to earn approval but an overflow of being loved first.Along the way, we pause for reflection. What is your picture of God? How does that picture shape your capacity to receive love and extend it to others? With a simple invitation to open your hands and welcome a fresh touch of grace, this episode blends scripture, stillness, and honest questions that lead to action. If you've been craving a faith that feels less like striving and more like abiding, these words offer both clarity and comfort.Listen and share with someone who needs courage today. If this resonated, follow the show, leave a review to help others find it, and tell us: where do you want perfect love to quiet fear in your life?Support the showBegin Your Heartlifter's Journey: Support the show: Your Donation Matters Leave a review and rate the podcast: WRITE A REVIEW Make a tax-deductible donation through Heartlift International Visit and subscribe to Heartlift Central on Substack.

Mapping Complex Mind States: EEG Neural Substrates of Meditative Unified Compassionate AwarenessIn this episode, Dr. Jud Brewer and Dr. Poppy Schoenberg explore the neural mechanisms behind advanced meditative states, specifically those linked to non-duality, emptiness, and awakened awareness. Using EEG, this study mapped brain activity during different stages of Indo-Tibetan essence-of-mind meditation, revealing decreased self-referential processing and increased executive control in regions such as the anterior cingulate cortex and insula. The findings suggest that meditative states of deep compassion and awareness involve distinct neural patterns, challenging conventional models of consciousness. Tune in to discover how meditation transforms the brain and fosters selfless awareness.Full Reference:Schoenberg, P. L. A., Rufa, A., Churchill, J., Brown, D. P., & Brewer, J. A. (2018).

Tan Jayadhamma has stayed at Dhammagiri for 7 months, spending the vassa (rains retreat) 2025 with us. Just before leaving, he kindly offered these reflections on balance in practice, based on the Soṇa Sutta (AN 6.55) and the Buddha's simile of the lute. His talk explores the meaning of sama (“in tune”), the five spiritual faculties as five strings, and how to maintain harmony in practice.⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our Spotify Playlists⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dhammagiri Youtube Channel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pics#dhamma #dhammatalk #meditation #buddhistmeditation #tuning #intune #balance

On this one Jared and I sat down with our friend Ryan Teague from Feather and Finch Photography all the way on the Gold Coast of Australia. Ryan is one of those rare photographers who has been wildly “successful” on paper, shooting 120 plus weddings a year, and still had the courage to ask if any of it actually lined up with the life he wanted.We talk about falling in and out of love with photography, what it does to your heart to be a dad to a son with special needs, why surfing every sunrise might be a better business plan than your current workflow, and how much more powerful your work becomes when you stop trying to impress the internet and start trying to really serve the people in front of your lens.If you have ever looked at your own work and thought “this came too easy, is it really worth what I am charging” or felt that quiet little pull to slow down and be more present, this episode is going to hit you in the best way.In this episode we get into:The 120 weddings a year seasonHow Ryan built a fast growing brand on the Gold Coast, what it felt like when the work was almost too easy, and why that started to mess with his sense of value.Falling out of love and finding it againThe honest side of running your own business for years, the seasons where you could not care less about picking up a camera, and the small shifts that brought him back.Rethinking “candid” and “documentary”Ryan talks about how couples use these words, what they actually expect on the wedding day, and how he now has very specific conversations up front so the experience matches the marketing.Empathy first, ego secondWe talk about the difference between being the entertainer at the center of the room and being the quiet presence that makes the room feel safe, and why he is willing to sacrifice a perfect frame if it means his couple stays grounded.Meditative portraits and quiet framesHow music, stillness, and silence shape the way Ryan shoots portraits, why he chases “quiet” images, and what it looks like to invite a couple into a slower, more intentional moment on their wedding day.Parenting, disability, and a very different true northRyan shares how being a dad to a ten year old with cerebral palsy and autism has completely changed his priorities and made it very hard to care about the little vanity games we all get sucked into in this industry.Designing a slower life on purposeSunrise surf sessions, short office days, training, and building a rhythm that actually supports his health and his family instead of constantly demanding more from them.Aftercast preview inside PHOTOCOIn the Aftercast for members we dig into the actual questions Ryan asks his couples, how he prepares them for a more meditative experience, and how he is thinking about storytelling over an entire wedding day as his style shifts.Listen to more episodes and read the show notesPhotographic Collective Podcast homehttps://www.mileswittboyer.com/podcastJoin PHOTOCO and get the Aftercast with RyanPhotographic Collective membership and training platformhttps://www.mileswittboyer.com/photoLearn more about the Photographic Collective communityhttps://www.mileswittboyer.com/photographic-collectiveFeather and Finch Photographyhttps://www.featherandfinchphotography.com.auFeather and Finch on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/featherandfinchphotographyMiles Witt BoyerWebsitehttps://www.mileswittboyer.comInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/mileswittboyerJared Mark FincherWebsitehttps://www.jaredmarkfincher.comInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/jaredmarkfincherIf you are new around here, the Photographic Collective Podcast is basically Jared and me sitting down with people we really respect and pulling on the threads that actually matter.

In the final episode of this season, Thomas speaks to the role of sincerity in prayer life. Many of us have a tendency to think we've got to do it all—that if we're going to grow spiritually, we've got to do it by the sweat of our brow. But in a world of Grace, a little sincerity goes a very long way indeed. 7-day meditation retreat (September 30th - October 7th) 3-day meditation retreat (December 11th-13th)  

This is a continuation of last week's episode about committing more fully to life's challenging moments. Thomas explores the sacred, transformative element of suffering that we can turn to in times of agony and distress. The more willingness we cultivate to remain present through life's trials, the more we find Christ's Love invincibly present in us and through us as a catalyzing force making all things holy.   7-day meditation retreat (September 30th - October 7th) 3-day meditation retreat (December 11th-13th)  

In a world moving at hyperspeed, it's difficult enough to find a moment to touch into genuine stillness. But even if we do manage to center ourselves in prayer and meditation, how do we remain still and centered throughout the full catastrophe of each day's events? Thomas shares a practice in this episode that will help you “train to remain” in stillness, to abide in a deep reservoir of Silence. 7-day meditation retreat (September 30th - October 7th) 3-day meditation retreat (December 11th-13th)  

It is easy to assume that we know ourselves. After all, who could be more familiar with me than, well, me? But contemplation teaches us that there are many layers to the self, some superficial, but others so hidden from us that only God can know us at these extraordinary depths. Enter an exploration in this episode with guidance from St. Augustine and the wisdom teachings of Jesus to discover your True Self. 7-day meditation retreat (September 30th - October 7th) 3-day meditation retreat (December 11th-13th)

In this 11-minute episode, I'll guide you through a calming meditation to help you relax and find your center. Afterward, I'll lead you through deep, reflective journaling to connect with your inner self and gain clarity. It's the perfect short break to unwind, slow down, and nurture your mind and soul.

The sound of a twig snapping in our hands has the ability to travel directly into our soul. There's more to it than just hearing the sound—it's the vibration, the frequency, and it's also your soul's history. In long ago, previous lifetimes, we gathered, stepped on, broke, carved, pointed, leaned on, and utilized sticks, branches and twigs for many reasons, such as survival and even for cultural and ritualistic reasonings. As long as humankind has been here, so have trees, shrubs and bushes, and there has been a forever relationship between humans and twigs ever since. Breaking twigs is a powerful meditation, a powerful clearing tool and rewiring mechanism that can penetrate through the walls of PTSD, wounds of hardship and mental, emotional, and even spiritual injuries and blockages that feel like something has impeded a person's progress and seems to be keeping them stuck in a vicious cycle of confusion. Healing occurs on all levels when applying this powerful meditational tool. In this episode, learn how to break twigs in a way that moves you forward. It's an experience that you will never forget in this lifetime.   In this episode…   Learn about a powerful rewiring tool and spiritual healing therapy and how to harness it. Discover the best methods for snapping twigs, which twigs to choose and how many you should gather for this meditation. Uncover how thousands of years ago, your soul experienced the snapping of twigs and how to connect to those experiences. Learn how this therapy and spiritual tool can rewire the consciousness, subconsciousness, brain and the soul. Discover the imprint-removing powers that snapping twigs can enact. Learn how snapping twigs can be used as a form of communication between you and others.   All this and more, tune in and don't miss out on this important episode.
