Episode 2651: Mindful dating, as explored by Ira Israel, invites us to move beyond superficial swipes and scripted encounters to build genuine, compassionate connections. By recognizing our own attachment patterns, projections, and facades, we can approach relationships with greater authenticity, integrity, and patience. Listeners will gain insights into how to cultivate intimacy in today's fast-paced, tech-driven dating culture. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://iraisrael.com/mindful-dating/ Quotes to ponder: “Some people feel as if technology is helping them connect but it can also be argued that Facebook and Twitter delude people into believing they are interacting when they actually are not receiving the tactile affection they crave.” “The problem is as follows: the most propitious tools for making relationships succeed - authenticity and authentic communications, may not be the most alluring traits when dating.” Episode references: The Newsroom (Season 1): https://www.hbo.com/the-newsroom We: Understanding the Psychology of Romantic Love: https://www.amazon.com/We-Understanding-Psychology-Romantic-Love/dp/0062504363 Learn more about your ad choices.

In this soul-deep conversation on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty is joined by Dr. Lori Joan Swick—author, spiritual scholar, and dream researcher—for an exploration of dreaming as a sacred and mindful practice. Lori shares insights from her book Dreaming—The Sacred Art, revealing how dreamwork can serve as a powerful spiritual discipline and tool for self-awareness, creativity, and healing. This episode delves into the intersection of ancient traditions, modern neuroscience, and personal experience to reframe dreaming not as random mental noise, but as profound inner guidance. About the Guest:Dr. Lori Joan Swick holds a Ph.D. in religion and philosophy and has dedicated her life to elevating women's spiritual voices. She is the bestselling author of The Sculptor and the Saint and Dreaming—The Sacred Art. A passionate advocate of sacred dreamwork, Lori blends academic rigor with intuitive wisdom to help others understand the transformative power of the dream world. She also hosts the video blog How Women Initiated the World's Religions. Key Takeaways: Dreams are not random; they are messages from the subconscious and soul. Mindful dreaming can be developed through intention, lucid awareness, and journaling. Eastern and Indigenous traditions view dreams as extensions of waking life—tools for healing and insight. Lucid dreaming, long explored in Tibetan practices and by Western scientists like Stephen LaBerge, bridges mysticism and neuroscience. Dream recall improves with focused attention and morning reflection. Patterns in dreams often point to emotional truths or guidance.

Matthew 25:1-12 - [Jesus said] "Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps. As the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and slept. But at midnight there was a cry, 'Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.' Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.' But the wise answered, saying, 'Since there will not be enough for us and for you, go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.' And while they were going to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut. Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, 'Lord, lord, open to us.' But he answered, 'Truly, I say to you, I do not know you.' Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour.”
The constant buzz of notifications has become the soundtrack to our lives. That little device in your pocket connects you to everything and everyone—except perhaps what's directly in front of you. For motorcyclists, this digital tether creates an ironic disconnect from the very experience we seek.Remember when communication required intention? When a pager meant someone truly needed to reach you, and finding a payphone was part of the adventure? Today's always-on culture has its conveniences, but while riding, your attention is your most precious resource. The dance between rider, machine, and landscape demands complete presence—something increasingly rare in our notification-saturated world.The magic happens when you deliberately unplug. Tucked away in my saddlebag, silenced and forgotten, my phone no longer competes for attention with the journey itself. What emerges is nothing short of transformative: heightened awareness of sunlight filtering through trees, the changing colors of passing fields, the rich tapestry of scents from pine forests to approaching rain. The soundtrack shifts from notification pings to the harmonious blend of engine hum, rushing wind, and nature's chorus.Beyond these sensory delights lies something even more valuable—a mental settling, a focused calm that comes when your mind isn't pulled in countless digital directions. This state of flow becomes a moving meditation, a genuine antidote to modern stress. The ride transforms from mere transportation to a profound reconnection with life itself.I challenge you to try it on your next ride. Leave your phone out of reach. The initial discomfort of disconnection quickly gives way to something richer and more satisfying—a journey experienced fully, with all your senses engaged. Because motorcycling isn't just about covering miles; it's about being fully present for every one of them. Sometimes the simplest step—unplugging—opens the door to the biggest adventures. Ready to rediscover what you've been missing?Support the show

Do you feel like your home energy often mirrors your teen's mood—and not in a good way? What if you could shift the atmosphere in your home without saying a word? In this episode, Colleen O'Grady talks with Lisa Danahy, yoga therapist and founder of the nonprofit Create Calm, about how moms can bring more peace and regulation into their homes—and themselves. With decades of experience in education and yoga-based therapy, Lisa explains the role of the autonomic nervous system and the vagus nerve in our stress responses, and why physical practices—not just mental strategies—are the key to resetting our emotional states. She offers practical techniques like “Yoga Jacks,” “Washing Machine Twists,” and a rhythmic finger-tapping affirmation practice that moms can use to regulate themselves—and invite their teens to join. They also dive into the power of co-regulation, why mindfulness isn't about control, and how big energy doesn't have to lead to big drama. Lisa Danahy (C-IAYT, YACEP, MS) is a powerful educator and entrepreneur. Her non-profit, Create Calm, has facilitated cultural shifts and deep healing for thousands of students, teachers, and families in hundreds of schools and community organizations across the country since 2016. With an MS in Yoga Therapy and BA in Psychology, over 30 years as a school administrator and SEL curriculum developer, and certification as an advanced educator and trainer, Lisa is highly skilled at creating accessible, evidence-based, successful curricula for behavioral and emotional regulation, as well as physical and mental health. She is the author of Creating Calm in Your Classroom. Key Takeaways: Your calm is contagious. You don't need to fix your teen's mood. When you regulate yourself first—through breath, movement, or mindfulness—you model what emotional balance looks like and help them get there too. Energy is meant to move. Whether it's stress, anxiety, or frustration, Lisa offers easy movement practices like “Washing Machine Twists” that help shift big energy safely out of the body. Start where you are. You don't need a yoga mat or a quiet room. Mindful movements and breath can happen in the kitchen, before you walk in the house, or alongside your dysregulated teen—with or without their participation.

In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Stephanie Warlick, founder of 5FT View Consulting and author of Dark and Silent Office, to unpack the misunderstood link between ADHD, entrepreneurship, and transcendental meditation. Stephanie shares how discovering meditation transformed her leadership, calmed her overactive mind, and sparked a new level of creativity. From being labeled “too much” to becoming a sought-after fractional COO, she offers real-world insights on building inclusive workspaces, overcoming visionary blind spots, and turning neurodivergence into a superpower. If you've ever felt out of sync with traditional structures—this episode is your permission to lead differently. About the Guest:Stephanie Warlick is the founder and CEO of 5FT View Consulting, an international bestselling author, HR strategist, and fractional COO. Diagnosed later in life with ADHD, she integrates mindfulness, operational clarity, and neurodiversity advocacy into her work. Her book Dark and Silent Office explores how to build inclusive, accessible workplaces for all. Key Takeaways: Transcendental meditation can enhance both calm and creativity, especially for high-performing minds. ADHD is not a flaw—it's often the driver of entrepreneurial innovation. Visionary leaders must learn to let go, delegate, and get out of their own way to scale. Inclusivity isn't just compliance—it's about making sure everyone is empowered to contribute. Self-awareness of your strengths and blind spots is key to sustainable leadership.

What is ‘animism' and what kind of philosophy does it entail? Dhivan considers how animism rests on an intuition about the aliveness of the world, and how this intuition can inform a mode of philosophy that does not bypass the earth as the living presence behind all thinking.

Bodhi Beach Buggy takes a drive to the sand dunes.
It might seem counterintuitive, but intentionally tuning into what's distracting you can actually help strengthen your ability to focus. In today's guided practice, meditation teacher Toby Sola introduces what he calls a “concentration algorithm.” This practice will help you identify which type of sensory experience you are naturally drawn to, and then give you a structure for how to focus on it, so that you can quickly attain deep concentration. Toby Sola is dedicated to helping you create a feedback loop between your meditation practice and your ability to make the world a better place. Toby has been teaching meditation for two decades and has refined his craft through years of monastic training and close collaboration with the world-renowned teacher Shinzen Young. He is an award-winning designer and founder of the Brightmind Meditation app. Note that this practice includes long pauses of complete silence to give you time to spend in contemplation. If you want more time, feel free to pause the recording as you go. The transcription of this guided meditation will be online at Mindful.org next week. Stay curious, stay inspired.

Dr. Diana Hill, PhD is a clinical psychologist and internationally recognized expert in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and compassion-based approaches to well-being. She is the host of the Wise Effort podcast and author of The Self-Compassion Daily Journal, ACT Daily Journal, and the forthcoming Wise Effort. Diana teaches individuals and organizations how to build psychological flexibility so they can live more aligned, courageous, and meaningful lives. I first discovered Diana and the transformative power of ACT through her course on using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for eating and body image concerns. Her work opened a new doorway in my own recovery and professional practice, helping me integrate compassion, values, and embodiment into the healing process. Blending over twenty years of yoga and meditation practice with cutting-edge psychology, Diana brings a unique and deeply personal approach to well-being that is both science-based and spiritually grounded. Her insights have been featured in The Wall Street Journal, NPR, Woman's Day, Real Simple, and Mindful.org, and she's a regular contributor to Insight Timer and Psychology Today. When she's not walking and talking with therapy clients, Diana is likely tending to her garden, caring for her bees, or swimming in the ocean at sunrise with her two boys. Key Takeaways: 1. Movement ≠ Punishment • Diana shares how our relationship with movement is often shaped by shame, rules, and diet culture. • ACT invites us to reconnect with intrinsic values—like joy, connection, or vitality—rather than "shoulds." 2. From Motivation to Meaning • Dr. Hill outlines the three types of motivation: • Pleasure-seeking • Pain-avoidance • Values-based • Relying only on feeling “motivated” often backfires. Lasting behavior change is values-driven, not vibe-dependent. 3. Urge Surfing 101 • Urges feel like waves—we think they'll pull us under, but they always pass. • Practicing presence, noticing without acting, and riding the wave can build powerful inner trust over time. 4. Body Shame Needs Light + Air • Shame tells us to hide. ACT helps us bring curiosity and compassion to the parts we feel we “can't show.” • The antidote to shame is not “fixing” the body—it's learning to see it differently. 5. Phones, Dopamine & Distraction • Screen scrolling can become both a dopamine hit and an escape from discomfort. • Awareness + micro-boundaries with tech can gently shift us back toward the life we actually want to live. 6. Values Are Felt, Not Just Picked • Instead of just selecting values off a worksheet, ask: • When did I feel most alive yesterday? • When did I feel regret? These moments hold the clues to your deepest values. 7. Recovery is a Process of Discovery • Movement and food freedom are journeys of returning to self—not performance. • Progress is nonlinear and personalized. Flexibility, not perfection, is the goal.
This isn't about pretending life is perfect. It's about learning how to create moments of magic, even in the middle of the mess.If we're not intentional about creating joy in our everyday lives, burnout isn't just possible... it's inevitable. Because here's the truth: hustle without harmony leads to resentment, exhaustion, and questioning why you even started in the first place.In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on something we don't talk about enough: the power of romanticizing your own life. Not as some indulgent luxury reserved for vacations or weekends, but as an absolutely essential strategy for sustaining your energy, your creativity, and your capacity to lead.. . .
