Podcasts about Mindfulness

What if the real crisis we're facing right now isn't political or technological… but a crisis of attention?Jon Kabat-Zinn is a molecular biologist, professor emeritus of medicine, and the founder of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), the program that helped move mindfulness from contemplative tradition into modern medicine, psychology, and high performance. The last time Jon joined Finding Mastery was four years ago, as the war in Ukraine was beginning. Four years on, the world hasn't gotten quieter. The crises have multiplied, AI has accelerated, and the same noise we worried about then has become the air we all breathe.In this conversation with Dr. Michael Gervais, Jon argues that mindfulness is not a calming technique or a productivity tool. He calls it a radical act of sanity. A willingness to stop, drop into the body, and meet life as it actually is rather than the story running on top of it. The shift sounds small. Yet the implications are enormous. Health, relationships, performance, decision-making, and even how we treat each other as a society all live downstream of where our attention is.Jon and Mike also dig into the surprising overlap between elite performance and contemplative practice. Why athletes call it the zone, musicians call it the pocket, and scientists call it flow, and why all of it lives downstream of the same thing: presence. Jon introduces the idea of the "body politic," his framing of nations as organ systems inside a single planetary body, and what it would mean to actually live, lead, and parent from that recognition. He reflects on his grandchildren, on the digital and analog tension shaping the next generation, and on what he wants young people to know in a world that is moving faster than ever. And in his ninth decade, he is still, by his own description, perpetually optimistic.By the end, Jon and Mike land somewhere quietly powerful: presence is not something you achieve. It is something you remember. And remembering, even for one breath, changes the trajectory of the moment you are in.In this conversation, we explore:Why mindfulness is a radical act of sanity, not a relaxation techniqueThe difference between being aware and being with awarenessHow presence quietly shapes relationships, decisions, and healthWhy outcome attachment is one of the great hidden drains on performanceWhat Jon means by the "body politic," and why it changes how we think about leadershipWhy mind wandering is the practice, not a failureThe one instruction Jon hopes people remember: don't take personally what is not personalIf you've ever felt scattered, overwhelmed, or quietly disconnected from your own life, this conversation offers a science-backed, deeply human way back in.Links & Resources;This episode is brought to you in part by our partner, Sunlighten, the company that has pioneered infrared sauna technology.

Shoot Me A Quick Text & Introduce YourselfWhat lies have you accepted about yourself?Maybe you've told yourself you're lazy, unorganized, not smart enough, or lacking the skills to succeed.

Your past may explain where those thoughts came from, but it doesn't have to determine where you're going.

This conversation goes way beyond the peak performance version of flow most people talk about. We get into the real mechanism — what's happening neurologically and energetically when one thought sends you spiraling, and how your own survival brain is the thing standing between you and the life you're trying to build.What you'll learn:Why judgment triggers fight-or-flight and pulls you out of flowHow your desires are actually designed to surface your blocks firstThe 90-second process for moving through a bushwhack and getting back into alignmentChristy Whitman is a New York Times bestselling author and founder of the Quantum Success Coaching Academy.

In this episode, we explore a question that feels more urgent than ever: what if healing ourselves and healing the planet are deeply interconnected?Monica is joined by author Lindsay Branham, whose book Heartwood: The Wisdom and Healing Kinship of Trees chronicles her personal journey through chronic illness and toward a deeper relationship with the natural world. Guest co-host Florence Williams, bestselling author of The Nature Fix, also brings her expertise on nature, health, and well-being to this wide-ranging conversation.Together, they explore the story behind Heartwood and the experiences that led Lindsay from a career as a war journalist and Emmy Award–winning documentary filmmaker to an exploration of ecology, spirituality, and embodied healing. The conversation delves into interoception – sometimes called our “eighth sense” – and how tuning into the body's internal signals may help us reconnect with ourselves and the living world around us.From chronic illness and nervous system regulation to reciprocal healing, belonging, and even erotic ecology, this episode examines why so many of us are searching for deeper connection in an increasingly disconnected world and what nature may have to teach us about finding it. If you're interested in the intersection of science, spirituality, and healing, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.Show NotesHeartwood: The Healing Wisdom & Kinship of Trees by Lindsay BranhamHeartwood InstituteLindsay Branham on SubstackFlorence Williams The Nature Fix: Why Nature Makes Us Happier, Healthier, and More Creative by Florence Williams Key Words: biophilia, biophilic design, nature connection, healing, planetary health, human health, ecology, spirituality, interoception, nervous system regulation, forest healing, nature therapy, forest bathing, ecological connection, mindfulness, embodiment, emotional well-being, Florence Williams, Lindsay Branham, Heartwood, The Nature Fix, Biophilic Solutions, sustainability, conservation, healing through nature, wild places, environmental psychology, holistic health, connection, natural world, regenerative living, personal transformation, neuroscience, nature and well-being, eco-spirituality, environmental stewardship, intentional livingBiophilic Solutions is available wherever you get podcasts.

If you've ever felt like being fully yourself would make you harder to love, this episode is for you. Vanessa Bennett explores how the too much wound and the not enough wound are often the same core fear: that authentic selfhood threatens belonging. We talk about the way self-editing becomes a survival strategy—somatically, relationally, culturally—and how “being good” can masquerade as maturity while actually costing you your aliveness. The work isn't “just be yourself”—it's staying connected to yourself even when your full humanity makes other people uncomfortable.For educational purposes only.

Shoot Me A Quick Text & Introduce YourselfDo you ever find yourself replaying conversations, second-guessing decisions, or worrying about things that haven't even happened yet?In this episode, we're exploring what overthinking really is and why it has less to do with thinking too much and more to do with our desire for certainty and control.You'll learn why your brain gets stuck in mental loops, how uncertainty fuels anxiety, and why trying to predict every possible outcome often keeps us from taking action. More importantly, we'll talk about practical ways to break the cycle, trust yourself more, and move forward even when you don't have all the answers.If you've been feeling stuck in your head, overwhelmed by decisions, or exhausted from constantly analyzing every possibility, this episode will help you understand what's happening beneath the surface and give you simple tools you can start using today.Remember: confidence doesn't come from knowing exactly how things will turn out. It comes from trusting yourself to handle whatever happens next.Support the showFree download: 5 Mindset Shifts & Micro-HabitsInstagramYouTubeSupport the show - Show your appreciation by supporting the show

In this revisited episode of the Alcohol Minimalist Podcast, Molly explores the connection between ADHD and alcohol use. For many people with ADHD, alcohol can seem helpful at first—quieting a busy brain, easing anxiety, or creating a sense of calm—but it can also worsen impulsivity, sleep, emotional regulation, and decision-making over time. Molly explains why ADHD may increase vulnerability to overdrinking, binge drinking, and using alcohol as a coping tool. She also discusses why it's important to be thoughtful about drinking when taking ADHD medications and why support, planning, and self-compassion matter.In This Episode What ADHD is and how symptoms can show up differently  Why alcohol may feel temporarily useful for ADHD symptoms  How alcohol can make ADHD challenges worse  The role of dopamine, impulsivity, and emotional regulation  Why ADHD medication and alcohol can be a concerning combination  Practical supports like a Doable Drink Plan, mindfulness, therapy, coaching, and medical guidance Listener ReflectionAre you using alcohol to quiet your brain, regulate emotions, reduce restlessness, or make life feel more manageable?Noticing the pattern is not a reason for shame. It is a starting point for change.DisclaimerThis episode is for educational purposes only and is not medical advice. Please consult a qualified healthcare provider if you have questions about ADHD, alcohol use, or medication interactions.Until next time, choose peace.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 ★

Time passes equally for all of us, yet our experience of it can feel vastly different. An hour spent with someone you love can disappear in an instant, while a few minutes of waiting can feel endless.In this guided meditation, Chris Kennedy invites you to explore the difference between clock time and lived time. Through breath, awareness, and gentle reflection, you'll be guided away from deadlines, schedules, and urgency—and back to the present moment where life is actually happening.Whether you're feeling rushed, stuck, overwhelmed, or simply longing to slow down, this practice offers a chance to step beyond the clock and reconnect with the richness of now.Take a breath. Let go of the need to keep up.

I have often felt like talking about self love can feel frustrating and confusion. What does loving oneself actually mean and look like? Early in my twenties, I think I thought self love looked and felt like self discipline. I went to yoga and meditated almost every day, I was strict with myself on what and when I would eat, I went to bed early and woke up early. From the outside, it looked like I deeply loved myself through how I cared for myself but that it not the way it felt. I felt trapped, depressed, and disconnected. My routine wasn't bringing me joy or love, it brought short term safety. And that bubble would burst if I did anything outside of that routine where I would then be so cruel with myself. Self love may show up as an act, but now I experience it as a felt sense. It feels like a warmth, a closeness, and an appreciation of my body for all that it does and navigates every day.In this week's episode, I chat with Lulu Essey, Speaker, Mindset Advisor, and host of The Lulu Essey Podcast , about: Understanding the difference between self love and self careThe practice of staying with yourself in all emotions, sensations, and reactionsNavigating discomfortThe role of safety in self loveThe courage to face inner struggles and the importance of asking for supportYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/what-self-love-really-is-and-how-to-embody-it-every-dayHope you enjoy this week's episode and talk to you more soon! With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Lulu: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@luluessey Website: https://www.luluessey.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucille-marie-essey/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lulu.essey/Support the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportAll affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resourcesReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPlSpecial thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensou...

LESSON 152The Power Of Decision Is My Own.No one can suffer loss unless it be his own decision. No one suffers pain except his choice elects this state for him. No one can grieve nor fear nor think him sick unless these are the outcomes that he wants. And no one dies without his own consent. Nothing occurs but represents your wish, and nothing is omitted that you choose. Here is your world, complete in all details. Here is its whole reality for you. And it is only here salvation is.You may believe that this position is extreme, and too inclusive to be true. Yet can truth have exceptions? If you have the gift of everything, can loss be real? Can pain be part of peace, or grief of joy? Can fear and sickness enter in a mind where love and perfect holiness abide? Truth must be all-inclusive, if it be the truth at all. Accept no opposites and no exceptions, for to do so is to contradict the truth entirely.Salvation is the recognition that the truth is true, and nothing else is true. This you have heard before, but may not yet accept both parts of it. Without the first, the second has no meaning. But without the second, is the first no longer true. Truth cannot have an opposite. This cannot be too often said and thought about. For if what is not true is true as well as what is true, then part of truth is false. And truth has lost its meaning. Nothing but the truth is true, and what is false is false.This is the simplest of distinctions, yet the most obscure. But not because it is a difficult distinction to perceive. It is concealed behind a vast array of choices that do not appear to be entirely your own. And thus the truth appears to have some aspects that belie consistency, but do not seem to be but contradictions introduced by you.As God created you, you must remain unchangeable, with transitory states by definition false. And that includes all shifts in feeling, alterations in conditions of the body and the mind; in all awareness and in all response. This is the all-inclusiveness which sets the truth apart from falsehood, and the false kept separate from the truth, as what it is.Is it not strange that you believe to think you made the world you see is arrogance? God made it not. Of this you can be sure. What can He know of the ephemeral, the sinful and the guilty, the afraid, the suffering and lonely, and the mind that lives within a body that must die? You but accuse Him of insanity, to think He made a world where such things seem to have reality. He is not mad. Yet only madness makes a world like this.To think that God made chaos, contradicts His Will, invented opposites to truth, and suffers death to triumph over life; all this is arrogance. Humility would see at once these things are not of Him. And can you see what God created not? To think you can is merely to believe you can perceive what God willed not to be. And what could be more arrogant than this?Let us today be truly humble, and accept what we have made as what it is. The power of decision is our own. Decide but to accept your rightful place as cocreator of the universe, and all you think you made will disappear. What rises to awareness then will be all that there ever was, eternally as it is now. And it will take the place of self-deceptions made but to usurp the altar to the Father and the Son.Today we practice true humility, abandoning the false pretense by which the ego seeks to prove it arrogant. Only the ego can be arrogant. But truth is humble in acknowledging its mightiness, its changelessness and its eternal wholeness, all-encompassing, God's perfect gift to His beloved Son. We lay aside the arrogance which says that we are sinners, guilty and afraid, ashamed of what we are; and lift our hearts in true humility instead to Him Who has created us immaculate, like to Himself in power and in love.The power of decision is our own. And we accept of Him that which we are, and humbly recognize the Son of God. To recognize God's Son implies as well that all self-concepts have been laid aside, and recognized as false. Their arrogance has been perceived. And in humility the radiance of God's Son, his gentleness, his perfect sinlessness, his Father's Love, his right to Heaven and release from hell, are joyously accepted as our own.Now do we join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false, and only truth is true. We think of truth alone as we arise, and spend five minutes practicing its ways, encouraging our frightened minds with this:The power of decision is my own.This day I will accept myself as what my Father's Will created me to be.Then will we wait in silence, giving up all self-deceptions, as we humbly ask our Self that He reveal Himself to us. And He Who never left will come again to our awareness, grateful to restore His home to God, as it was meant to be.In patience wait for Him throughout the day, and hourly invite Him with the words with which the day began, concluding it with this same invitation to your Self. God's Voice will answer, for He speaks for you and for your Father. He will substitute the peace of God for all your frantic thoughts, the truth of God for self-deceptions, and God's Son for your illusions of yourself.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

We focus on how grief can intensify anxiety and panic, and we discuss ways to stay supported during this time.We explain that grief is individual and does not follow a fixed timeline. We note that people may grieve differently depending on the relationship, the type of loss, and their own resilience. We also say that grief can apply to many kinds of losses, not only death.We then describe common grief reactions, including shock, numbness, anger, sadness, fear, and anxiety. We mention that physical symptoms can include insomnia, fatigue, and changes in appetite, and we encourage listeners to notice these responses without judging them.We offer practical ways to cope, including meditation, short stress breaks, music, aromatherapy, prayer, and other calming rituals. We also encourage maintaining social support, reaching out to others when needed, and paying attention to sleep, exercise, food, and rest.We close by encouraging journaling, doodling, crying, and other forms of emotional release. We emphasize that allowing feelings to move through can help the nervous system settle and support a return to calm.#Grief, #Anxiety, #PanicAttack, #Loss, #Bereavement, #Mourning, #MentalHealth, #EmotionalWellness, #GriefSupport, #AnxietyRelief, #OvercomingPanic, #ShockAndNumbness, #GriefAnger, #DealingWithSadness, #OvercomingFear, #DealingWithUncertainty, #InsomniaRelief, #Fatigue, #SelfCare, #DailyRoutine, #StressManagement, #StressRelief, #Meditation, #Mindfulness, #StressBreaks, #Aromatherapy, #PetTherapy, #InspirationalQuotes, #SocialSupport, #TherapyWorks, #GriefCoaching, #SupportGroups, #PhysicalHealth, #ExerciseForMentalHealth, #Journaling, #CreativeRelease, #EmotionalExpression, #LetItFlow, #CopingMechanisms, #HealingJourney, #NervousSystemRegulation, #EmotionalRelease, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send me a messageHave you ever felt the overwhelming urge to leave it all behind — your job, your marriage, your city? We often think happiness is just one move away, but what if the "prison" isn't the place you're in, but the patterns of your own mind?In this deep reflection, Todd Perelmuter explores the "sadness illusion": the belief that changing our external circumstances will fix our internal struggles. Drawing from his own journey from traveling the world to finding peace in a small town, Todd reveals why we endlessly chase dopamine through travel and "newness," and how to instead find a blissful, meditative presence exactly where you are.In this podcast, we discuss:- The "Honeymoon Period" and why it always fades unless you find it within first.- The truth about midlife crises and searching for fulfillment in "empty things."- The power of sacrifice and finding the "life within" yourself.- How to reignite your zest for life without changing your zip code.If you feel "dead inside" or are staying in a situation purely out of obligation, this message is a gift to help you stop wandering and start living.#Spirituality #Mindfulness #MidlifeCrisis #PeaceWithin #MentalHealthPlease enjoy other episodes where I share meditation techniques, tips and spiritual lessons from around the world for peaceful and stress-free living.

What would your life look like if you locked in for the next six months? In this episode, I'm getting real about what it means to truly lock in, not by working endless hours, but by being intentional about your energy, your priorities, and the life you actually want to build. After returning from the Fundadoras Circle Dinner in Phoenix and navigating new motherhood, I share the honest, vulnerable journey of hitting capacity, letting go of what no longer serves me, and stepping into the next version of myself. If you're a Latina founder who's been playing small or carrying way too much, this episode is your sign to take up space, fully and unapologetically. 3 Action Steps to Lock In for the Next Six Months: Acknowledge Your Capacity 8:35 — Get honest about what you're carrying. If you're at capacity, say it out loud. Let go of what's not truly yours to carry so you can focus on what fulfills you. Use my GAME Framework 17:44 — Start your day with Gratitude, build an Action plan, practice Mindfulness (journaling, meditating), and Exercise/move your body. This daily framework creates clarity and helps you connect with yourself every single day. Invest in Yourself 19:19 — Get into rooms, programs, and communities that will stretch and elevate you. Whether it's a coach, a mastermind, or an event, investing in yourself is what fast-tracks your next level. Ready to lock in? If you're a Latina founder ready to expand your visibility, purpose, and impact, I'm personally inviting you to the Fundadoras Circle Mastermind. We kick off June 11th, and together we'll do the real work: breaking generational cycles, building something bigger than ourselves, and stepping into the next level — together. Schedule a call with me to learn more and claim your spot.

We are excited to celebrate the launch of IFS Collected Wisdom: Conversations with Experienced Voices in Internal Family Systems a book that brings together voices, reflections, and lived experience from across the IFS community. This book was created from a desire to honor those voices, and to acknowledge that wisdom in IFS doesn't live in one place or one person. It lives in relationship, in experience, and in the field as it evolves. Thank you for being a listener, for being part of this community,  and for continuing to explore what becomes possible when Self leads. We hope that IFS Collected Wisdom can become a companion in your IFS journey. Here is a link to the IFS Collected Wisdom book contents. The Role of Uncertainty in Mental Health with Sarah Bergenfeld and Martha SweezyIn this episode, we welcome two leading voices in Internal Family Systems therapy for a conversation that bridges neuroscience, sensory experience, and healing. Sarah Bergenfield is a certified Level 3 IFS practitioner, writer, and educator specializing in autistic individuals and couples. Autistic herself, Sarah weaves together IFS, polyvagal theory, predictive processing, and sensory science in her clinical and consultation work. She teaches internationally for clinicians working with neurodiverse clients, and her work reframes autism not as a deficit, but as a condition of sensory surplus. Martha Sweezy is an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, program consultant and supervisor at the Center for Mindfulness and Compassion at Cambridge Health Alliance, and a psychotherapist in private practice in Northampton, Massachusetts. She teaches IFS nationally and internationally and has authored and co-edited numerous books on the model, including Internal Family Systems Therapy, Second Edition (with Richard Schwartz), Intimacy from the Inside Out (with Toni Herbine-Blank), and Internal Family Systems Therapy for Shame and Guilt.Together, Sarah and Martha are co-authors of Wired to Feel: Autism as a Condition of Sensory Surplus.In this episode, we explore the role of uncertainty in mental health: how it can quietly drive distress and shame, and how IFS offers a path toward resolution. While the conversation has special relevance for autistic systems, the insights apply across all neurologies.

Buy yourself a mug and sticker!!!   Visit the Peace Love Moto Store!Today, we take a hard look at what might be underneath the rise of lightweight electric motorcycles and electric dirt bikes with middle school riders. Kids are coming of age in a hyper-connected world of nonstop news, social media pressure, and algorithm-driven anxiety where reality can feel shaky and attention is constantly monetized. From that angle, the “rowdy kid” may also be a stressed kid chasing something real and physical. For many of us, motorcycling has always been a kind of moving meditation, and we explore how that same pull might be showing up in the next generation through electric bikes.We then get practical. We talk about the skills kids can develop on two wheels, why protective gear and boundaries matter, and why some parents may be confused about legality or simply overwhelmed. We also borrow a lesson from the skateboard era: when communities built skateparks, safety improved and conflict dropped. What would community electric motorbike parks or designated dirt tracks look like today, and how could they reduce illegal riding on sidewalks and streets?Keywords:  Electric Motorcycles, Two Wheels, Digital World, and Moving Meditation.Support the showTags:  Distinguished Gentleman's Ride, DGR, Mindfulness, Motorcycle riding, mindful motorcycling, motorcycle therapy, nature connection, peace on two wheels, Rocky Mountain tours, rider self-discovery, spiritual journey, motorcycle community, open road philosophy.

Most triathlon training focuses on physiology and skills. Dr. David Spindler argues that the brain is the missing piece, and that you can (and should) train your brain to better process pressure, adapt under stress, and execute under fatigue. This episode will teach you how to do this. Dr. David Spindler is a neuroscientist and cognitive performance specialists who has worked with athletes at the very highest level (including with Sir Mark Cavendish, Sam Laidlow, Chelsea Sodaro, Katie Courtney, and Tom Evans) and across sports from cycling, triathlon and trail running through soccer and Formula 1.  HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY TOPICS:  The brain's central role in athletic performance: coordination, decision-making, focus, emotional regulation, fatigue perception, and recovery. Allostatic load: why amateur triathletes carry far more cognitive stress than professionals, and how to account for it in training. How the brain controls pacing, and why perceived effort rises and the efficiency of firing muscles drops when the brain decides an effort isn't sustainable. Self-efficacy vs. confidence: why they are different, and how to address a lack of self-efficacy as a triathlete. Self-regulation: why understanding how your brain and body behave under stress matters, and how poor self-regulation undermines both triathlon training and the athlete-coach relationship. Joy and happiness as recovery tools: why they are the most effective mediators of cortisol, and how to find joy and happiness in training and life (it's not the same as dopamine hits)   DETAILED EPISODE SHOWNOTES:  We have detailed shownotes for all of our episodes. The shownotes are basically the podcast episode in written form, that you can read in 5-10 minutes. They are not transcriptions, but they are also not just surface-level overviews. They provide detailed insights and timestamps for each episode, and are great especially for later review, after you've already listened to an episode.  The shownotes for today's episode can be found at https://scientifictriathlon.com/tts699/ LINKS AND RESOURCES:  Psychobiology of fatigue during endurance exercise - book chapter containing much of the seminal work of Prof. Samuele Marcora.

In this final Think Thursday episode for Mental Health Awareness Month, Molly explores the difference between emotional regulation and emotional suppression — and why so many high-functioning people are carrying emotional stress they've never fully acknowledged.You'll learn how the nervous system continues responding to emotions even when we try to override or ignore them, why coping behaviors often emerge when emotions go unnamed, and how becoming more aware of your thoughts and feelings can create powerful emotional agency and lasting behavior change.This episode also explores: The neuroscience of emotional suppression and stress  Stanford psychologist James Gross's research on emotion regulation  UCLA research on “affect labeling” and calming the nervous system  Why thoughts — not circumstances — create emotional experiences  How awareness creates space, and space creates choice  The connection between emotional honesty, nervous system health, and behavior change If you've been feeling emotionally flat, chronically overwhelmed, unusually reactive, or disconnected from yourself, this conversation is an invitation to slow down, get curious, and begin listening to what your nervous system may be trying to tell you.Resources & Research Mentioned: James Gross, Stanford University — Emotion Regulation Research  Matthew Lieberman, UCLA — Affect Labeling & Emotional Processing ★ Support this podcast ★

A street in Honduras. A conference room. The fifth lap of a bike ride. Crisis can descend on you in unexpected places – and so can clarity. All that's required of you, really, is to be there for it, and to stretch yourself in ways you hadn't expected. Mariann Budde, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese in Washington, DC, tells of three defining moments of struggle and grace in her life.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What if the most important skill of our moment isn't knowing more, but knowing what's actually worth caring about?Mark Manson is the bestselling author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck and Everything Is F*cked, with three #1 New York Times bestsellers and tens of millions of readers around the world. The last time Mark joined Finding Mastery was in 2020, mid-COVID, when uncertainty was loud and the world felt strange. Five years on, the world is no less strange... it's just strange differently. The information ecosystem has fractured. Trust is harder to find. And the same noise we worried about five years ago has become the air we all breathe.In this conversation with Dr. Michael Gervais, Mark walks through the three principles he's organized his life and work around: radical ownership, radical honesty, and radical acceptance. He explains why ownership is the foundation under everything, because nothing else really works until you take it. He explains why his bar for honesty is anything "relevant or pertinent to somebody's wellbeing." And he talks about why radical acceptance, the Buddhist part of him, is what allows agency without collapse.The conversation moves into territory both timely and timeless. Mark and Mike dig into why the decline of religion has helped the self-help industry explode, why a spiritual framework remains one of the strongest known protective factors for mental health, and how the comparison machinery in our brains, designed for a tribe of thirty, now buckles under the weight of three hundred million people on Instagram.Mark also opens up about Purpose, the AI app he's built, and what he learned designing it to be intentionally disagreeable. He explains why a yes-man entourage, whether it's people around a star athlete or an AI that agrees with everything you say, quietly untethers people from reality. And he shares the stoic-style practice he uses to stay honest with himself: imagining what would be true if he were the problem, then holding that thought lightly enough to set it back down.By the end, Mark and Mike land on what feels like the heart of the episode... You can be perfect as you are, and you can always be better. Both can be true.In this conversation, we explore:Why sincerity has become the most valuable signal in a fractured information landscapeThe three principles Mark uses to navigate uncertainty: radical ownership, radical honesty, and radical acceptanceHow our ancient comparison brain breaks under the weight of social media at scaleWhy a spiritual framework remains one of the strongest known protective factors for mental healthThe premortem practice that helps Mark stay honest with himself, and why most of us avoid itWhy an AI (or a person) that agrees with everything you say is a slow-motion mental health riskHow to use AI as a thought partner without letting it do your thinking for youThe question that keeps Mark up at night, and might be worth asking yourselfIf you've ever felt like the noise is winning, or like you've lost the thread on what's worth caring about, this conversation offers a sturdier place to stand.Links & ResourcesThis episode is brought to you in part by our partner, Sunlighten, the company that has pioneered infrared sauna technology.
