The world is full of humor, some bad, some good, But a lot of that depends on which stance you take, And I don't mean pretending for I don't believe you should, I'm talking about genuine levity, something you don't have to fake. [full text below] Ep. 458 - Good Happy We begin as always with the Happy Creed. We believe in Happy, in Balance and Growth, of being Mindful and Grateful, Compassionate and Understanding. Yowza Haha My Happy Friends! I may have my low stretches, My times of trouble and strife, When I feel like one of them wretches Who's losing at the game of life. But that's when my imagination kicks in, That's when I daydream and create, That's when I take my Inherently Happy spark for a spin, And allow my heart, mind and spirit to activate. The world is full of humor, some bad, some good, But a lot of that depends on which stance you take, And I don't mean pretending for I don't believe you should, I'm talking about genuine levity, something you don't have to fake. Today at work someone wrote to ask if I'd been impacted by a new regulation, I did a little research to see, but it turned out it doesn't apply to me, I kept the conversation going since she clearly wanted to talk about the situation, After venting for a spell, she said there was never a dull moment-- I had to agree. So, I responded by saying that I dream of dull moments--which is silly, I know, But sometimes things can get a bit hectic and so uneventful times can seem nice, She said that made her laugh and so a work email turned into a comedy show, She agreed that life could get complicated and society often exacted a heavy price. I long ago realized, even while bullied for years, that some good could still be found, I could find occasional points of connection, share a joke or even help them out, Bullies are people too--it may not seem like it, but all of us are equally earth-bound, And so we share far more than we may think we do, something I will never doubt. Those moments of ceasefire in their warfare against me, we few and far between, But every once in a while I made a lasting friend because I always look for the good, You might say I'm Good Happy, determined to find what others may not have seen, For I know the true tragedy is denying your own humanity, something you never should. Haha Yowza

In this workshop, I walk you through a practice that can help you become more present in your body, reduce stress, deepen self-awareness, and discover what truly feels good to you.

In feng shui, the Summer Solstice marks the peak of yang energy—the longest day and shortest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. While it is often thought of as the beginning of summer, the Chinese solar calendar recognizes it as the height of the season, when fire qi is at its strongest. This powerful moment is associated with abundance, vitality, visibility, and growth. In this episode, we explore the significance of the Summer Solstice through the lens of feng shui and holistic living, and share practical ways to celebrate the season and align with its expansive energy.What we talk about in this episode:-Summer Solstice significance in Feng Shui-The peak of yang energy and fire element-Balancing fire and water elements-Using flowers and natural elements to celebrate-Reflecting on growth and fruition…and much more!Mentioned in this episode:Our Feng Shui Energy Map EkitRegister for our free & on-demand Feng Shui plant workshop, available for a limited timeHarmonize your Home with Feng Shui PlantsEnhance your qi, prosperity and wellnessThanks so much for listening to the Holistic Spaces Podcast brought to you by Mindful Design Feng Shui School!-Sign up for our newsletter for exclusive complimentary special workshops and offers for our newsletter subscribers ONLY! -Make sure you're following us on Instagram for feng shui tips and live Q&A's.-Learn about our courses and certification on our website at: Mindful Design School.-Check out our older episodes on our Holistic Spaces Podcast archive.Time stamps for this episode:[00:00] Celebrating the Summer Solstice[04:10] Understanding Yang Energy and Its Significance[12:01] Feng Shui Practices for the Summer Solstice[19:56] Reflecting on Growth and AbundanceMORE QUESTIONSHire one of our Mindful design school Grads for a 1-1 consultation.

You deserve love even if it's hard to come by, You have value even if it's tough to find, There's a spark deep inside you that refuses to die, An Inherently Happy source of your spirit, heart and mind. [full text below] Ep. 457 - Bad Happy We begin as always with the Happy Creed. We believe in Happy, in Balance and Growth, of being Mindful and Grateful, Compassionate and Understanding. Yowza Haha My Happy Friends! Have you ever felt that you were bad? Not as in a failure, or in a foul mood, But that you'd gone completely mad, Where something was fundamentally wrong with your attitude? I used to feel that way because I was bullied for years, Every support system I thought I had failed me, My school, my neighborhood, my family, my faith, my peers, I couldn't understand why nothing helped to even the slightest degree. Everything felt like a personal attack, And I started daydreaming of vengeance on my own behalf, Of increasingly gruesome ways to fight back, And instead of bothering me, they made me laugh. I was turning bad, when once I had been so good, Once I had been popular and well-liked, Never imagining any darkness could cloud my golden childhood, So that when it did, the pain and terror spiked. And it came out in destructive ways, I broke things, I burned things, I cut myself too, In order to impress others--but to prompt fear, not praise, Which only isolated me further, which didn't help my point of view. I convinced myself that bad was good, that being mean was fun, I didn't need friends, faith or family, I smoked and hung out in a graveyard at night, I pictured scenarios where I would destroy just about everyone, But even at my lowest point, I still felt that it was unfair, that something wasn't right. That I still deserved love even if it was hard to come by, That I had value even if it was tough to find, That there was some spark deep inside me that refused to die, An Inherently Happy source for my spirit, heart and mind. And I'm so glad I never let go of that notion, I'm ecstatic that I never completely gave up hope, Because the Happy that connects all of us is an endless ocean, And acknowledging and embracing it is what gives life infinite scope. Haha Yowza

On this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan Greene shares a solo episode focused on the mindful approach to landlording. Drawing from his own experiences managing rental properties alongside his father at a young age, Jonathan explains why successful landlording goes far beyond simply collecting rent. Instead, he emphasizes that long-term success comes from building respectful relationships, properly maintaining properties, and viewing tenants as caretakers of the investment rather than as adversaries. Jonathan breaks down the mindset shifts landlords need to make to create better tenant experiences and stronger long-term property performance. He discusses why choosing the right tenant is one of the most important decisions an investor can make and explains how understanding local demographics, tenant "avatars," and neighborhood dynamics can help landlords attract higher-quality renters. He also shares practical advice on screening tenants, verifying employment, and avoiding costly mistakes driven by desperation or impatience. The episode also explores the importance of communication, curb appeal, and operational systems in creating stable rental properties. Jonathan explains how exterior upkeep, common area maintenance, parking rules, and laundry schedules all contribute to tenant satisfaction and lower turnover. He highlights why landlords should remain approachable and present rather than hiding behind LLCs or management companies, stressing that accountability and accessibility often lead to better tenant relationships and better care for the property itself. Throughout the conversation, Jonathan encourages investors to adopt a more thoughtful and human-centered approach to landlording. From allowing tenants to "have their story" during difficult moments to maintaining firm but fair boundaries, he explains how empathy and professionalism can coexist with the protection of the investment. Ultimately, the episode serves as a practical guide for creating healthier landlord-tenant relationships while maximizing long-term property performance. In this episode, you will hear: • Why tenants should be viewed as caretakers of an investment property • How choosing the right tenant can determine long-term property success • Why landlords should understand local demographics and tenant "avatars" • The importance of curb appeal, common area upkeep, and clear house rules • How communication, responsiveness, and accountability improve tenant relationships • Why landlords should avoid making desperate or rushed tenant decisions • How empathy, boundaries, and professionalism create better long-term outcomes Follow and Review If you enjoy the show, please follow Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing on Apple Podcasts and leave a rating and review.

What if you didn't have to please everyone? Good news is... you don't. High achieving moms often fall into the people pleaser trap, but carrying the mental load of everyone else's expectations creates a "gross energy" of resentment that actually repels abundance. So we are diving into the power of mindful boundaries and how to transition from depletion to reciprocal energy. Push play to learn how to speak your truth and create the grounded, solid energy that money loves to be around! PS. Ready to see the "forest in the trees" and create a bigger vision for your life?

Shame Happy means taking every mistake as proof that you're the worst, Instead of treating them as a chance to grow, You have to believe that you deserve good things first, And accept that you're Inherently Happy, because you are, you know. [full text below] Ep. 456 - Shame Happy We begin as always with the Happy Creed. We believe in Happy, in Balance and Growth, of being Mindful and Grateful, Compassionate and Understanding. Yowza Haha My Happy Friends! Life can be a lot, but we can control our reactions like they're on a dimmer switch, Where we regulate our responses, turning them down when they try to go too high, It takes practice, and an intentional mindset to soften the scream of that fever pitch, But it's well within the power of the Balance and Growth we all have to hit that bullseye. Part of the trick is not being afraid of the extremes, so that you don't panic, This is why I recommend training your emotions through roleplay or art, For it helps you teach yourself to recognize the moment you begin to feel manic, Allowing you the time and confidence to adjust those patterns before they start. All the feelings we think of as good can turn bad if we let them go long-range, The same way the bad ones can be manageable if we don't let them go that far, So, something like shame, for instance, can help nudge us towards change, Or it can turn toxic if we internalize it and mistake it for who we really are. Then we become Shame Happy, taking every mistake as proof that we're the worst, When literally everything that happens to us can be treated as a chance to grow, But that's only possible if you believe that you deserve good things first, And accept that you are Inherently Happy, because you are, you know. Haha Yowza

This episode features a conversation with Thenmozhi Soundararajan, founder Equality Labs and author of The Trauma of Caste. We discussed her own coming to consciousness of caste as the child of Dalit parents who were “passing” and how her work as an organizer has involved sustained engagement with anticaste thought, Black feminism, and Indigenous epistemologies. The conversation then turned to the practice of solidarity as the building of meaningful and not just transactional relationships and the importance of recognizing the potential of political alignments that may be foreclosed at one moment, only to be given new life in another. Finally, we addressed the need, in our current moment of dying empires and failing democracies, to both work with and beyond the law in order to open new horizons of political imagination and practice.

Chapter on Being Mindful of Allah (Al-Murakhabah) - Lesson 2 by Albaseerah
This is an episode on washing dishes mindfully. I have a pan that I've mucked up one time too many. I don't have patience with it any more. But maybe I need to slow down and care for it proper. And by it, I mean me. Slow down and look at the pan. What does it need? Can it be saved from the land fill? Focusing it on being in the moment with that dang crusted up multi-ringed pan of hell. Ok, I might need a bit more work on being in a kind and loving mode of mindfulness. We all have to start somewhere and it ain't going to be perfect. Doesn't have to be. Just start. Do the best you can, when you can. Resources Mentioned: From Insight Timer, there is an audiogram by Michelle Tao that explains how to do a mindful dishwashing session. The website Care and Self Love goes deep with the power of dishwashing mindfulness. Mindful Exercises has a script that you can follow as you set your mind to the task of taking care of yourself and those dishes. And trusted Consumer Reports has an article on how to wash dishes.

We often think of mindfulness and meditation as sustained states—when in reality, it's just a collection of micro-moments of stopping, breathing, really noticing our own bodies and our own lives, getting distracted, and then coming back again. Over and over. As this week's teacher Shalini Bahl puts it, today's guided practice is about the art of stopping: letting go of our regular habits of the mind—the pushing, pulling, running in circles— and instead just being for a moment. This is an extended practice, but as a bonus, we're also sharing a micro-practice version of The Art of Stopping that you can take into busy days. And don't miss Shalini's new article on Mindful.org that's all about the power of micro-practices to affect our daily choices. Shalini Bahl, PhD, is the award-winning author of Return to Mindfulness and founder of Sama Life, where she offers daily live micro-practices for real-world engagement. Through her teaching, writing, and TEDx talks, she focuses on building practical mindfulness skills that disrupt default patterns and restore clarity, integrity, and care. The transcription of this guided meditation will be online and in our app at Mindful.org next week. Stay curious, stay inspired.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I'm sitting with something that has weighed on so many of us for far too long — the relentless mental noise around food, what I call food chatter, and what it actually takes to quiet it for good. I'm not talking about another meal plan or a new set of rules. I'm talking about what is happening in your brain when the spiral starts, and the two science-backed strategies that peer-reviewed research has proven can interrupt it. We dig into Rumination-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy — which sounds clinical but is honestly one of the most practical tools I've come across — and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, which teaches you to watch a thought without obeying it, and why that single skill changes everything around food obsession. I also share a story about my sister that still lives in my heart, talk about what my son and the Game of Thrones soundtrack taught me about dropping resistance, and make the case for why sitting down to eat your meal is one of the most underrated acts of self-respect you can give yourself. This episode is grounded in real research, real life, and the kind of honest conversation I hope feels like a walk with a good friend.Quote of the Week: "True silence isn't the complete absence of thoughts; it is the act of stepping back and watching your thoughts without attaching to them or fighting them. When you stop struggling against your mental chatter, it loses its power over you." - Anonymous Citations:1. Morillo-Sarto, H., et al. (2023).

Hunger is more complicated than simply "needing food." Episode #257
Oscar Oven worries when the Parker family tries to bake cookies without a recipe. How will they turn out? Narrator: Female Story Begins: 4:01 Ahway Adventure Cookies Excerpt: “I know. I'm sorry. I forgot,” Emily repeated. “Is there anything we can make tonight?” she asked, voice full of hope. Mr. Parker walked over to the pantry, opened the door, and looked inside. “Let's see what we have. Maybe we can still figure something out.” Oscar felt his excitement leaving and worry creeping in. Baking usually required exact measurements and ingredients. It needed a plan. And that meant everything ready to go, a recipe on the counter, measuring cups out, and everything happening in the right order. This did not sound like a plan at all.
