Rest to Return, a podcast for a restless world. Kohenet Keshira haLev Fife is your host. This series is rooted in Shabbat, an ancient Jewish practice that teaches us how to belong to time. Here, rest is a sacred rhythm woven into who we are. We continue by gathering around a single question: What is my sacred purpose? You can find more info about Tzedek Lab here. Settled back into his room, my dad was a bit frail…but he could still kiss us and us that he loved us! The list of 39 melachot can be found here. Olam haBah is often translated as “the world to come” and is used in reference to the afterlife. In this context, I'm using it to describe “the world as it could be” which includes dignity, equity, and liberation. The idea that each person is a letter in the Torah is rooted in Megaleh Amukot (Va'etchanan 186:1). I learned about the concept of “ratzon” from my teacher, colleague, and friend David Jaffe, Founder and Executive Director of Kirva. Rabbi Tarfon's quote comes from Pirkei Avot 2:16. One source for Rabbi Simcha Bunim's teaching is Tales of The Hasidim Later Masters by Martin Buber. The Mary Oliver line comes from her poem, entitled “The Summer Day”. This quote has been misattributed to Courtney Carver. It is instead referenced by Carver in her book, Gentle: Rest More, Stress Less and Live the Life You Actually You Want. The quotation itself comes from Psychologist Nicola Jane Hobbs who teaches, “Instead of asking, 'Have I worked hard enough to deserve rest?' ask, 'Have I rested enough to do my most loving, meaningful work?'"” The practice in this episode was inspired by a practice that I learned from Rabbi David Jaffe, Founder of Kirva, and it is one that I've enjoyed practicing with each Cohort of “Dismantling Racism from the Inside Out” that I have the privilege of co-facilitating for People of Colour, alongside Yehudah Webster. The next cohort begins in Fall 2026 and you can find more info here. This episode is brought to you by the Institute for Jewish Spirituality. Rest to Return exists because we believe slowing down is a spiritual act. IJS believes that too. For over two decades, IJS has been helping people go deeper, through Jewish mindfulness meditation, contemplative prayer, sacred text study, and embodied practice. Their offerings range from online courses and silent retreats to immersive cohort programs for seekers of all experience levels, clergy, and spiritual leaders who are ready to live and lead from a more grounded place. Kohenet Keshira haLev Fife is part of IJS's core faculty, and the wisdom you'll hear in this series is very much in that spirit. If this podcast is stirring something in you, IJS is a place to go further.

Summer brings more than sunshine and vacations—it brings change. Whether your child is heading to camp, navigating more freedom with friends, learning new responsibilities, or preparing for college, summer often reminds us of a truth that's easy to avoid during the busy school year: our children are growing up. In this special summer conversation, Hunter Clarke-Fields and Chris Willard explore how mindfulness can help parents navigate transitions with greater ease, courage, and trust. They discuss why letting go can feel so difficult, how overprotection can unintentionally undermine children's confidence, and what research says about raising capable, resilient kids. Together, they dive into the parenting paradox: our job is to build strong attachment, but our goal is eventual independence. In this episode you'll learn: Why transitions feel difficult for both children and parents How mindfulness helps us navigate uncertainty and change The surprising science behind autonomy, competence, and connection How to support independence without sacrificing safety Why boredom is often the gateway to creativity and resilience Practical ways kids can become contributors at home How to handle homesickness, separation, and mixed emotions Why summer is the perfect season to practice flexibility The difference between healthy guidance and controlling behavior How simple family rhythms can create calm during less structured months Plus, Hunter and Chris discuss summer routines, family vacations, camp jitters, teenage freedom, and the often-unspoken grief parents experience as children grow more independent. Because raising confident kids isn't about holding on tighter—it's about learning when and how to let go. Resources Mentioned Self-Determination Theory (Edward Deci & Richard Ryan) Maria Montessori's work on independence and competence Mindfulness practices for parenting through transitions Have you ever struggled with letting go as your child grows? Share this episode with a parent who could use a little support this summer.

Byron Katie says there's nothing so dark that we cannot put it on paper, question it, and set ourselves free. She also says that we live in a friendly Universe. Those two statements are really put to the test in this week's episode of Love Is The Power, where a participant brings up the trauma of getting news that two of her community members had been murdered. This is intense, heavy inner work to take on, which is why it's so beautiful to be able to share it together. We invite you to find that inner sense of devastation at the cruel ways humanity can treat each other, and follow along with this profound and brave inquiry.

Your phone is not just a gadget. It is a gateway into an economy built to capture attention, shape behavior, and keep you coming back. We bring on Jay Vidyarthi, mindfulness teacher, UX designer, technologist, and founder of Still Ape, to talk about the real world collision between contemplative practice and the modern attention economy. We start with a short, grounding practice of “doing nothing,” then zoom out to the strange fact that even this conversation is carried by microphones, data packets, and screens.Jay shares what it feels like to grow up loving video games and early internet creativity while also longing for silence, retreats, and depth. That tension shows up everywhere: tech culture can dismiss meditation, and mindfulness culture can quietly shame technology. We name the cost of that split, especially the guilt, shame, and fear that can creep into how we talk about screen time, social media, and even our kids' digital lives. Jay offers a more honest frame: you do not have to abandon technology to be mindful, but you do need a healthier relationship with your attention.From there, we dig into the incentives behind the systems, including how AI may be pushing us from an attention economy into an “attachment economy,” where people form bonds with bots and start confiding in them. Jay argues that mindfulness is becoming subversive, not because it is trendy, but because choosing where to place attention runs against powerful forces. He calls the response “attention activism,” a middle way that avoids both naive techno-optimism and tech doom, and invites teachers, designers, and everyday users to show up online with wisdom.If you care about mindfulness, digital wellness, humane technology, or building tech that supports human flourishing, this conversation will give you language and direction.

Have you ever had intrusive thought patterns that always seem to poison your mind? Something that almost doesn't seem like “yours”? If so, you're not alone. This podcast explores how we habitually “pick up” certain thoughts from the constant stream of mental activity. This concept is similar to choosing familiar foods at a buffet. He explains that mindfulness allows one to recognize unhelpful thoughts, emotions, and habits while encouraging honesty, self-compassion, and the willingness to change course. Through developing new skills, wise reflection, and mindful intentions, we can stop identifying with unfriendly thoughts and cultivate beneficial patterns of thinking and behavior.

If you can name the pattern in real time—"I'm projecting, I'm shutting down, this is my attachment stuff"—and still feel unable to stop the behavior, this episode is for you. Vanessa explores the burden of consciousness: the exhaustion of being aware when insight has outrun integration, and the nervous system hasn't caught up to what the mind can explain. We unpack why the observer can become its own persona (or even a defense), how awareness turns into self-surveillance, and why “more insight” isn't the solution—more capacity is. The shift is when awareness stops being something you do to yourself and becomes something you do for yourself. For educational purposes only. This isn't therapy.If you want to go deeper, check out the written companion on Substack and explore community + training at https://www.vanessaBennett.com.Additional ResourcesExplore: VanessaBennett.comBook: The Motherhood MythCommunity: Inner Compass CollectiveTraining: Inner Compass AcademyConnect with Inner CompassFollow on InstagramConnect with Vanessa Bennett:Follow on InstagramFollow on TikTokLearn more on SubstackConnect with Vanessa Bennett on LinkedInSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Shoot Me A Quick Text & Introduce YourselfWe all want the outcome.The stronger relationship. The healthier body. The successful business. The financial freedom. The peace of mind.But somewhere along the way, many of us start looking for a way around the work it takes to get there.In this episode, you'll learn why there really are no shortcuts to building a meaningful life. We dive into the trap of instant gratification, why quick rewards often leave us feeling unfulfilled, and how true fulfillment is found through growth, perseverance, and becoming the person capable of carrying the life you're asking for.I also share three practical ways to stay committed when motivation fades:Fall in love with the process, not just the outcomeExpect resistance and learn to embrace discomfortKeep promises to yourself to build confidence and self-trustIf you've been feeling frustrated by slow progress or tempted to give up because things aren't happening as quickly as you'd hoped, this episode is a reminder that the struggle isn't a sign you're failing, it's often a sign you're growing.The life you want may require hard work, but so does staying where you are. The question is: which hard are you willing to choose?Support the showFree download: 5 Mindset Shifts & Micro-HabitsInstagramYouTubeSupport the show - Show your appreciation by supporting the show
The quality of our attention shapes every interaction we have, yet listening is often the first skill sacrificed when pressure, technology, and time constraints take over. Most clinicians spend years learning what to say, while spending little time learning how to effectively listen. In a healthcare system dominated by tasks, metrics, and efficiency, the ability to slow down and create genuine presence may be one of the most valuable skills we can cultivate.In this episode, we explore why listening is both a mindset and a practical skill, how to listen more effectively, how small pauses can transform patient care, and why mindfulness extends far beyond meditation. Finally, we examine simple practices that help clinicians stay present, focused, and connected even during the busiest days.

In this episode of the Alcohol Minimalist Podcast, Molly continues the series “When Drinking Less Feels Hard” by looking at one of the most common places drinking less can feel difficult: social situations where alcohol feels like part of the fun and everyone else is drinking.This episode explores two powerful Alcohol Core Beliefs: alcohol makes things more fun and alcohol creates connection. These beliefs often show up around dinners out, parties, weekends, vacations, celebrations, and those moments when you had a plan—until you were surrounded by other people drinking.Molly explains why the challenge is not simply being in a bar, at a restaurant, at a party, or on vacation. The deeper issue is that your brain may have learned to associate alcohol with belonging, ease, confidence, playfulness, and connection. When that belief is running in the background, choosing to drink less can feel like choosing a lesser version of the experience.But alcohol is not the source of your humor, warmth, courage, or ability to connect. Those parts of you already exist.In this science-forward episode, Molly breaks down how alcohol expectancies, social cues, dopamine, reward prediction, and alcohol myopia can make drinking feel automatic in social settings. She also shares how to challenge the thoughts that make alcohol feel necessary and how to build new evidence that fun, connection, and belonging are still fully available when you drink less.You'll learn how to use the 4S process—See, Soothe, Separate, and Shift—to question the belief that alcohol makes everything better. Instead of relying on willpower in the moment, Molly encourages you to create a doable drink plan ahead of time, protect your awareness before alcohol narrows it, and practice proving to your brain that you can enjoy social situations without giving alcohol all the credit.In This Episode, You'll Learn:Why social situations can make drinking less feel harder than drinking less at homeHow the beliefs “alcohol makes things more fun” and “alcohol creates connection” fuel desireWhy “everyone is drinking” can feel so powerful, even when you genuinely want to drink lessHow alcohol expectancies shape what you believe a drink will do for youWhy familiar cues like restaurants, vacations, Friday afternoons, and celebrations can trigger urgesWhat alcohol myopia is and why “I'll decide later” is often not a strong enough planHow to separate the facts of a social situation from the story your brain is tellingHow to use the 4S process to challenge old beliefs and practice new onesWhy alcohol may be present during fun and connection without being the cause of either oneKey Takeaway:Alcohol may be present during fun, connection, celebration, and belonging—but that does not mean alcohol created those things.When you stop giving alcohol full credit for the experience, you can begin reclaiming your own confidence, humor, warmth, playfulness, and ability to connect. Drinking less is not about having less fun. It is about learning that fun was never dependent on alcohol in the first place.Mentioned in This Episode:Mostly Dry July: The Daily begins July 1st.Join Molly for daily support, coaching, and practical tools to help you create a peaceful relationship with alcohol throughout the month of July.Learn more at: https://mollywatts.com/mostlydryjuly/Resources:Join the Alcohol Minimalist Facebook group for support, conversation, and real-life strategies for changing your drinking habits.Learn more about Molly's programs and resources at mollywatts.com.Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

"You've got to befriend your own self, because your adversary lives within, it's not just on the outside. So, if we want to see peace in the world, be the peace that you seek to see in the freaking world." —Janie Terrazas What if getting fired, divorced, or "losing everything" was actually your redirection, not your rejection? In this powerful episode, mindfulness coach and creator of PazMesa, Janie Terrazas, shares how she went from top-earning corporate telecom rep to LA TV host and actor, and eventually to a trauma-informed life and relationship coach helping people regulate their nervous systems, process grief, and return to inner peace. Janie doesn't speak from theory. She speaks from corporate burnout, industry darkness, divorce, spiritual awakening, and deep inner work. She breaks down how our unprocessed grief, unresolved trauma, and constant stress quietly run the show—until we finally decide to pause, go within, and heal. If you've ever felt like: • You're "successful on paper" but empty inside • A job loss, breakup, or betrayal wrecked your sense of worth • You're constantly performing, people-pleasing, and overachieving just to feel "enough", this conversation will shift how you see your story. In this episode, you'll learn: • How Janie walked away from a "cush," high-paying telecom career to follow a deeper calling • The surprising way corporate sales rejection prepared her for Hollywood and entrepreneurship • Why misogyny, microaggressions, and being underestimated became fuel for her growth • The real meaning of PazMesa ("peace within") and how it became her life's work • What mindfulness-based stress reduction actually looks like in everyday life • How trauma, grief, and nervous system dysregulation quietly shape our relationships • Why you can (and must) grieve things that didn't "die"—like careers, friendships, and versions of people • The difference between believing and knowing when it comes to faith and inner peace • How to start "powering up the peace within" when you feel lost, ashamed, or stuck Key themes: Mindfulness, grief, trauma, spiritual awakening, nervous system regulation, authenticity, and turning pain into purpose. If you're in a season of loss, transition, or questioning everything, this episode will help you see your story through a new lens—and remind you that what feels like an ending might actually be your beginning.

As many of you know, I went on my first diet when I was 13 years old. It was Weight Watchers and it shifted how I viewed my body for a decade. I saw it as something weak and that I could control. It would take years of nutritional, mind, and body studies to realize my body was never the enemy I was taught to see it as. I sometimes wonder how things might have been different if I had learned as a kid and teenager how to interact with my body and food from a place of trust. I eventually would see a nutritionist when I was twenty years old and it was she who told me sometimes you will overeat and sometimes you may undereat but when you zoom out over a month you'll see that your body got the nutrition it needed. Learning this bodily trust at a younger age might have offered a framework for how to safely land inside of my body rather than constantly leaving it. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with The Holistic Kids, four brothers on a mission to educate and empower kids from the inside out, about: Their journey to learning more about holistic healthDiscovering the impact of food on their health and wellbeingTheir revolutionize acronymThe importance of mindfulnessHow they have navigated technology and social media when everyone around them is using it more and moreThe role of nature, stress management, and play in healthYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/4-teens-on-a-mission-to-revolutionize-teen-healthI found it fascinating to hear from four teens about what they're noticing about what it is like to be a teenager these days. So whether you're in the process of supporting a teenager or remember what it was like to be a teen, this episode will give you a peek into what the younger generations are currently navigating.

The 5D Academy with Zarathustra explores universal wisdom to foster total freedom from suffering in all areas of your life; health, wealth, love, and self. Each Academy podcast contains valuable insights and takeaways to become the best version of yourself and create an authentic, fulfilling life. Zarathustra transmits 5th Dimensional Quantum frequencies in each episode with transformational tools while discussing different topics to help you maintain this new frequency in your daily life. Zarathustra has created a practical system of transmitting the truth to his audience allowing transformation and freedom from suffering. Spiritual development requires an open heart. It is virtually impossible for a seeker to advance to higher consciousness if they don't love themselves. The belief system which has been ingrained in our cellular memory from childhood that we are not good enough results in a conditioned mind. The conditioned mind holds the false belief that there is something missing in our lives, that we are incomplete, that we need to gain something in order to become happy and whole, which is not true. After a life time of searching, Zarathustra has blended a practical system of Eastern and Western methods and techniques to help the Academy members to free themselves from anxiety, negative thoughts, lack of self-love and self-acceptance and destructive emotional patterns through a systematic way to raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency, which enables you to live a vibrant life of freedom and happiness. The Key Elements To Freedom: Zarathustra recognizes continuity and consistency are the key elements to freedom. In order to help you achieve your spiritual goals, it's best to have a highly effective spiritual practice, free of dogmas, false beliefs and superstition that helps you raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency as well as the ability to maintain this newly found higher level of consciousness. This translates to a life filled with inner peace, self-love and happiness which is the goal of every spiritual seeker. New knowledge and benefits are gained with each replay.

We're all hooked on something. Here's the way out, according to an MD who became a beloved nun. Sister Dang Nghiem, MD, ("Sister D") was born in 1968 in Vietnam during the Tet Offensive, the daughter of a Vietnamese mother and an American soldier. She lost her mother at the age of twelve and immigrated to the United States at the age of seventeen with her brother. Living in various foster homes, she learned English and went on to earn a medical degree from the University of California – San Francisco. After suffering further tragedy and loss, she quit her practice as a doctor to travel to Plum Village monastery in France founded by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh, where she was ordained a nun in 2000, and given the name Dang Nghiem, which means adornment with nondiscrimination. She is the author of a memoir, Healing: A Woman's Journey from Doctor to Nun (2010), and Mindfulness as Medicine: A Story of Healing and Spirit (2015). This episode is part of our monthlong Do Life Better series. We talk about: Sister D's Buddhist version of the 12 step program, which is a combination of two canonical buddhist lists: the 4 Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path How willpower doesn't fit into the Buddhist path of understanding and working with addiction How to change addiction at its root Practical applications of mindfulness Self-compassion The importance of social support Her thoughts on our relationships to our phones And more Related Episodes: This Episode Will Make You Stronger | Sister Dang Nghiem The Science Of Manifestation | James Doty Sign up for Dan's newsletter here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Ten Percent Happier online bookstore Subscribe to our YouTube Channel Our favorite playlists on: Anxiety, Sleep, Relationships, Most Popular Episodes Full Shownotes: https://www.meditatehappier.com/podcast/tph/sister-d-899 Additional Resources: Plum Village Deer Park Monastery Deer Park Monastery YouTube channel For an exclusive offering related to this episode, go to www.DanHarris.com

Mindfulness isn't about emptying your mind or finally feeling calm—and believing it was is probably why you quit. Your emotions fire before your thinking brain ever catches up, which means most of your reactions—the defensiveness, the cravings, the snap judgments—are already in motion before you "decide" anything. In this conversation, Tony unpacks the neuroscience behind that gap and the genuinely doable practice that helps you notice your patterns sooner, build a pause, and respond to your life instead of just reacting to it. In this episode, you'll: Discover why you "feel before you think"—the low road and high road your brain takes, and why emotions fire roughly two and a half times faster than thoughts Learn to build the pause that turns automatic reactions (yes, including the fourth Oreo) into actual choices Untangle the real difference between meditation and mindfulness—and why the practice has roots in everything from Buddhist tradition to Christian contemplative prayer, no conversion required Understand why silence can feel so unbearable that people will choose a mild electric shock over sitting alone with their thoughts—and what that reveals about emotional avoidance Strengthen the "runway" between your internal smoke alarm and your inner fire chief using sleep, breath, and a practice you can start in the next sixty seconds Tony Overbay is a licensed marriage and family therapist and host of The Virtual Couch, drawing on his clinical work and four-plus years of daily practice to make mindfulness feel approachable instead of intimidating.
