Podcasts about nourishing

I want to talk about why sex can feel draining instead of connecting, even when it's happening regularly, and how that disconnect quietly impacts a marriage. What does nourishing sex actually look like and why does obligation, performance, and one-sided dynamics make intimacy feel heavy instead of life-giving? Through real client stories, I will break down how emotional safety, presence, and mutual desire change both the individual and the relationship experience of sex. With my normal directness, I will share practical ways couples can begin shifting from sex that depletes to sex that genuinely feeds connection. This conversation is about creating intimacy that both partners look forward to, not endure. You're going to love it.

Something remarkable happens when spaces are allowed to feel more human—when they are welcoming, grounded in care, and shaped with intention. When there's time to sit together, perhaps good food on the table, and an openness that feels closer to being welcomed into someone's home than arriving at an institution of learning.Across the country, centres for Black studies are emerging as spaces like these. They are places where Black scholarship is held with care, where history and leadership are approached through joy, and where intellectual life is nurtured rather than extracted.That spirit of joy comes to the Big Thinking Podcast this month. Andrew B. Campbell joins Karine Morin for a conversation about Black leadership through history, the power of building scholarly spaces that are expansive rather than extractive, and what becomes possible when we show up not just as participants, but as allies and co-conspirators in sustaining this work.

In this never released short Bonus Episode from The Modern Pleasure Podcast with Dr. Jenni Skyler and Kim Kaplan, Paul Joannides discusses cultural issues surrounding women's sexuality, including the restriction of abortion and birth control, and emphasizes the importance of sex education. Paul shares a story from a college newspaper about young women's negative views on masturbation. Dr. Skyler adds that these attitudes often stem from religious or cultural upbringing, and the conversation touches on the broader societal messaging around pleasure and sexuality.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever noticed that eating well instantly improves your mental health—even before anything changes physically?In this episode of Mental Health School, we explore a powerful truth most nutrition conversations miss:It's not just what you eat that affects your mood—it's how your food choices make you feel about yourself.If you've ever:•Felt mentally foggy, irritable, or low after a day of chaotic eating•Said “I shouldn't have eaten that” and felt an instant emotional drop•Tried to use willpower, restriction, or food rules to “get back on track”•Noticed that good food choices seem to improve confidence and calmThis episode will help you understand why that happens—and how to work with it instead of against yourself.We break down how consistent, supportive food choices create:•Immediate increases in self-trust and self-respect•More emotional regulation and stable energy•Less impulsive decision-making•A calmer, more grounded nervous systemThis is not a diet episode.It's a mental health episode about identity, cause and effect, and self-relationship.You'll be guided through a grounding, visualization-based meditation designed to help you:•Make food choices from internal discernment, not force or restriction•See eating as nourishment, not emotional punishment•Build pride, ease, and confidence around how you fuel your body•Create stability through protein, whole foods, and simple preparationYou'll learn why:•Your daily food choices impact how you feel about yourself immediately•Stable blood sugar supports emotional regulation•Nourishing your body consistently builds momentum across your entire life•A few “off” days don't mean failure—they mean awarenessThis episode helps you shift food from a coping mechanism into a foundation for self-trust, emotional stability, and confidence.Return to this meditation often to reinforce a new self-image—one where eating well isn't about control or perfection, but about how deeply good it feels to take care of yourself.Because when you eat in a way that supports you, your mind follows.

In a recent episode of the 'Moving to Oneness' podcast, Meilin Ehlke and Robert Wolf delved into a poignant discussion centered on the biography of a Hungarian Jewish man who escaped the clutches of Nazi and communist Hungary. The autobiography-turned-biography, "Not a Real Enemy," penned by the man's parents in the 1970s, serves as a testament to the resilience and survival instincts honed during times of strife.The narrative underscored the significance of delving into one's familial history to glean insights into themes of survival, resilience, and the enduring impact of ancestral struggles. Meilin and Robert emphasized the importance of combating anti-Semitism through education and fostering empathy to prevent future bigotry. Their advocacy for unity and inclusivity resonated throughout the episode, urging listeners to embrace diverse backgrounds and draw strength from familial narratives to navigate contemporary challenges.Here are three key takeaways from the episode:1. **Embrace Love Over Hate**: As Robert Wolf aptly put it, "A little bit of love goes a long way, and hate may be the easier way. I think love could be the usual way." Encouraging listeners to prioritize love and empathy over animosity, the episode highlighted the transformative power of compassion in fostering understanding and unity.2. **Engage to Build Connections**: Meilin Ehlke emphasized the importance of engaging with others on a personal level, urging listeners to reach out to their neighbors and communities to foster meaningful connections. By asking deeper questions and seeking to understand others' stories, individuals can cultivate a sense of togetherness and shared humanity.3. **Respect Diverse Backgrounds**: The discussion emphasized the need for respecting diverse backgrounds and promoting inclusivity in all interactions. By honoring the unique experiences of others and approaching differences with empathy, listeners can contribute to a future aligned with cosmic energies and ancestral wisdom.In conclusion, the episode served as a poignant reminder of the resilience and strength embedded in familial histories. Through the lens of the Hungarian Jewish man's biography, Meilin Ehlke and Robert Wolf illuminated the transformative power of love, the importance of personal engagement, and the value of respecting diverse backgrounds in fostering a more harmonious future.As Meilin Ehlke eloquently summed up, "Moving to oneness. Nourishing curiosity. Embracing differences. Becoming one." Let us take these words to heart and strive towards a world founded on understanding, compassion, and unity.Find out more about Robert Wolf on his website: https://robertjwolfmd.comHere is where you can purchase Robert's book: https://mybook.to/I3hEA5LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robert-j-wolf-mdInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/robertjwolfmd ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~You are invited to bring your wisdom and powerful energy over to our Fb group where you can share it with us and others.

"Don't go through stuff while they are away, don't toss the junky toys and papers without asking permission." "It's ok to get rid of an unfinished project if they took up knitting and got through 4 inches of a scarf before acknowledging that it frustrated them, give them permission to let things go."

In this episode of Midlife by Design: Curating Your Next Chapter, we're rewriting the January narrative once and for all.Because by the time you're in your 40s and 50s, the old “New Year, new you” script doesn't just feel outdated, it feels deeply misaligned. You're not a before picture. You're not a problem to solve because you enjoyed December. You were living. And that matters.In this conversation, I talk honestly about why detoxes, extreme resets, and “reining it in” don't work in midlife, and how they often leave us more depleted, anxious, and disconnected from our bodies than before. We explore what's really going on beneath the bloating, fatigue, and overwhelm, and why your body isn't broken, it's being incredibly honest.I share a gentler alternative: a midlife reset rooted in rhythm, nourishment, and self-trust, not punishment. We talk about returning to the basics that actually support a hormonally changing body, eating in a way that feels holding rather than restrictive, moving in ways that restore instead of exhaust, hydrating with intention, and protecting sleep like the sacred foundation it is.This episode isn't about starting over or becoming someone new. It's about coming back to yourself. Slowly. Kindly. On purpose.If January usually fills you with pressure, guilt, or the sense that you should be doing more, this episode is your permission slip to choose a different way. One that feels sustainable, supportive, and aligned with the woman you are now.No detox. No punishment. Just a steady return to rhythm, and a body that finally feels like it's on your side again.For more slow rituals, gentle reminders, and reflections on becoming, visit Kiransinghuk.com or join me on Substack at Kiransinghuk.substack.com.

Luis and Tasha talk about beauty standards, eating disorders and their role in Tasha's life. She used food as a way to control her appearance and fit into beauty standards. Her hormones tanked. Out of desperation she began the complicated journey of taking control of her own health. In 2020-2021 she found herself within the nuance of liminal space. She felt non-binary, identity-less. In 2022 she suffered long-COVID and learned that her body needed to shift out of veganism into eating animal products. 6 weeks later her body felt like a woman again. She reconnected to herself in a way her Maiden body had never experienced. She realized how disconnected she had been and revels in it's new connection.  She uses her newfound life force energy to reintroduce people to their power through dance, likely with the same grace and openness that she shares her life with us here. She DJ's parties, teaches workshops, and she teaches facilitators.  Embodied DJing, facilitating initiatory experiences, is the modern form of ancient medicine, creating the heartbeat of the crowd.

A reading for a decision this time: Sha asked, “If I build another tech company, what will the experience be like?” Yi answered with Hexagram 27, Nourishing, changing at lines 2 and 3 to 26, Great Tending: changing to So that gave her an interesting couple of moving lines: ‘Unbalanced nourishment.Rejecting the standard, looking to the hill-top for nourishment.Setting out to bring order – pitfall.' ‘Rejecting nourishment.Constancy, pitfall.For ten years, don’t act.No direction bears fruit.’ It looks as though the experience would be not much fun at all – but why…?

In the first episode of 2026, Margo invites listeners to join her in a conversation about beginning the year with intention—rather than pressure. Inspired by a recent Substack article by writer Suleika Jaouad, Margo reflects on themes of release, gentleness, and honoring the creative process over rigid resolutions and why this approach is so important for creatives. She also shares real responses from the Windowsill Chats community about what they're letting go of this year, from comparison and self-doubt to perfectionism and "shoulds." Margo explores why finite, manageable containers—like daily sketching, journaling, or mindful walks—can create scaffolding for a sustainable and supportive creative life.

Sara breaks down what really happens in the first 10 days of an alcohol-free journey (beyond the highlight reels and feel-good memes). Most people don't talk about the not-so-glamorous physical and emotional shifts that come up when you stop drinking. But Sara's here to get real—and to empower you with science-backed insights and simple strategies so you can make it through the early days with confidence. She covers:

A conversation close to my heart. Anna and I explore birth as a sacred rite of passage — not just for the baby, but for the woman becoming a mother.We talk about how modern birth culture has moved away from honoring physiological birth, how fear and medicalisation can impact the birth experience, and why safety, presence, and nervous system regulation are essential during labor.We also dive into the postpartum period and the often-overlooked transition from maiden to mother. This episode highlights why new mothers need nourishment, rest, and support — not as a luxury, but as a foundation for long-term wellbeing.Inside the episode, we chat about: ✨ Birth as a sacred initiation ✨ The nervous system's role in labor and birth ✨ How fear interrupts physiological birth ✨ The importance of safety, presence, and support ✨ Nourishing the mother postpartum ✨ Reclaiming trust in the wisdom of the female bodyThis is a conversation to return to — especially if you're pregnant, postpartum, or reflecting on your own birth experience.Connect with Anna on Instagram @sacredbirthinternationalYour host: Anna SvedbergConnect with me on Instagram: @nourishedwithannaThis conversation originally aired as Episode 56.

Episode 2847: Rachel Jones offers a refreshingly practical approach to raising capable, responsible kids by integrating cleaning habits into daily family life, without rigid charts or power struggles. With patience, consistency, and a focus on teamwork over task lists, children naturally begin to take ownership of their spaces and routines. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://nourishingminimalism.com/teaching-children-tidy-habits-early-on/ Quotes to ponder: "We can't just assign tons of chores to each child and be done, no, we will have to follow through with instruction, patience, and consistency." "When children grow up with the belief that 'we do what needs to be done,' it makes the transition to adulthood less overwhelming." "Teaching children to do household tasks means when they are older they won't be paralyzed with certain tasks, instead, they will be capable."

As many of us head into the holiday season — travelling, slowing down, or looking for something good to listen to — I wanted to reshare this conversation with Martha Beck. It's a thoughtful, generous discussion about anxiety as a guide rather than a problem, and one I have a feeling will land right now.Dr. Martha Beck (author; “best-known life coach in America”) is about to release a book on anxiety. The international best-selling author – who holds three Harvard degrees in social science and was described by Oprah as “one of the smartest women I know” – specialises in helping people find meaning and integrity in their lives.In this episode, Sarah and Martha reconnect after 15 years to discuss their takes on the role of anxiety in our lives, and how it can be used to create purpose and direction (tune in to hear about the time Martha “bent a spoon with her mind” for Sarah!). They also share tangible techniques for using creativity to switch out of anxious spirals. Martha's book, Beyond Anxiety: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life's Purpose, is available now.SHOW NOTESOrder your copy of Beyond Anxiety: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life's PurposeHere's the newspaper column I wrote about my first meeting with Martha in 2010I refer to previous podcasts with Dr Jill Bolte Taylor and Iain McGilchrist, and another on the role of creativity with Ian LeslieYou can read more about Martha's work here and connect on IG here--If you need to know a bit more about me… head to my "about" pageFor more such conversations, subscribe to my Substack newsletter, it's where I interact the most!Get your copy of my book, This One Wild and Precious LifeLet's connect on Instagram Hosted on Acast.

As we move fully into early winter, many of us begin to notice changes in our skin, tightness, dryness, rough patches, or increased sensitivity. In Ayurveda, these seasonal shifts are meaningful clues about what's happening internally. Winter, especially early winter, increases Vata dosha with its cold, dry, and mobile qualities, which can intensify skin imbalance if we don't adjust our routines and nourishment. In this episode, we dive into Ayurveda's full guide to winter skin care. You'll learn what happens to the skin during early winter, how to identify signs of imbalance for your dosha type (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), and the internal and external practices that keep your skin hydrated, radiant, and resilient all season long. This episode includes: Seasonal skin insights: How early winter's Vata qualities affect moisture, circulation, and sensitivity Signs of winter imbalance for each dosha Why rasa dhatu matters for skin health Internal and external rituals to support dryness, irritation, or congestion The emotional connection: How mood imbalances show up on the skin Holistic winter self-care that brings radiance from within Whether your skin becomes dry and flaky, red and irritated, or dull and congested during the colder months, this episode offers practical, grounding tools to support your unique doshic needs.

What if self-care this season wasn't about doing more… but choosing what actually restores you? In this episode of Chasing Brighter, Jessica and Kelly dive into one of the most important (and misunderstood) topics of the season: holiday self-care that truly nourishes your mind, body, and spirit — not the kind that leaves you feeling overstimulated and depleted. The holidays pull on every part of us: schedules, emotions, finances, expectations, and family dynamics. With all the lights, noise, crowds, and invisible emotional labor, it's easy to slip into numbing coping strategies instead of nurturing ones. In this conversation, Jessica and Kelly help you understand the difference — without shame — so you can listen to what your body actually needs. You'll explore how over-stimulation impacts your nervous system, why even joyful moments can feel draining when they pile up, and how to gently shift toward self-care practices that leave you calmer, steadier, and more grounded. Inside This Conversation:  The difference between nourishing self-care vs. numbing coping Why holiday over-stimulation impacts your nervous system Common numbing habits (and why they're human, not failures) Examples of nourishing rituals that restore your energy Why heat therapy (baths, foot soaks, warm showers) can be especially soothing Signs you may be numbing instead of nurturing The “Nourish Me Check-In”: a simple 3-part self-care reset Boundary scripts that protect your peace during the holidays A gentle weekly challenge to support your wellbeing Chapters 00:00 Embracing Holiday Self-Care 01:17 NEWCHAPTER 03:31 Nourishing vs. Numbing Strategies 06:30 Recognizing Signs of Numbing 09:22 Implementing Self-Care Practices Connect With Us:

Final sermon of the series The Hope of Heaven:Pastor Snook invites us to consider a profound question: what difference does our knowledge of heaven actually make in how we live today? Drawing from 2 Peter chapter 3, we're challenged to move beyond casual Christianity and 'gird up the loins of our mind'—a military term meaning to prepare for battle without hindrance. The sermon presents a compelling acrostic using the word HEAVEN itself: Heeding to our purity, being Earnest about our purpose, staying Attentive to God's promises, remaining Visionary toward His plan, being Established in our profession, and Nourishing our progress. What strikes deeply is the reminder that God doesn't keep time as we do—His delay in Christ's return isn't negligence but patience, giving more people opportunity to come to salvation. We're called to live with intentionality, understanding that spiritual fitness requires the same discipline as physical fitness. The challenge is clear: our heavenly citizenship should transform everything about our earthly existence, from our daily habits to our eternal priorities.

"Art is a language without words." —Kate Bryan, author of How to Art: Bringing a Fancy Subject Down to Earth Why art? Why bring it into our lives? Why spend our hard-earned money on it? We often hear about the skyrocketing headline-making prices of paintings being sold at auction, but what's the point of purchasing something if the entire reason is to accrue value to sell later? The primary objective, Bryan shares, in writing this book, is to remove the assumed 'closed doors' or air of snobbery about art that she admits the art world itself has constructed. But, and she makes a strong argument, art, seeing it, appreciating it, making it, is part of being human. And to cordon it off, to claim that it is only a pastime for those with oodles of money or interest to acquire art of the upper echelons is preposterous. You may be wondering, Why is Shannon talking about this subject? What does art have to do with living simply luxuriously? With living a life of true contentment? It is precisely because true contentment is grounded in presence, seeing, clearing, and appreciating the everyday that the choice to bring art into our homes helps us savor each and every moment even more. When we bring works of art into our homes, we bring in a moment in the artist's life as they saw it. Their capturing of this ordinary moment in time, however they depict it, is a reminder that there is "beauty and marvels in the everyday". Even if we cannot or do not want to even try to be a literal artist, by gazing at their art, having it be present in our daily lives, we are continually reminded to see the gift in each day - to consciously look for it, take note of it without taking it for granted, and to savor it. Today, I would like to encourage you to consider, if you haven't already, acquiring an art collection to display in your home. Of course, how and where you display it, most likely throughout your home, will be up to you. Conveying your tastes, interests, and values in what each work depicts reflects a collector who engages with life in the present and brings their self-knowledge and quiet confidence to what captures their eye.   Find the Show Notes on The Simply Luxurious Life blog https://thesimplyluxuriouslife.com/podcast415 

Even after the tremendous success of her cookbook, “Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat” and the Netflix series it inspired, Samin Nosrat found that she was lonely and depressed.

What if changing what kids eat at school could transform their behavior, boost learning, and even save lives? Studies show that when kids swap junk food for real, nourishing meals, behavior problems drop, focus improves, and learning soars—with one study finding a 100% reduction in suicides among youth simply by changing their diet. Across the country, schools are proving that scratch-cooked, colorful meals made from whole ingredients can fit tight budgets, reduce waste, and make kids excited to eat. By putting nutritious food at the center of education, we can help raise a generation that's healthier, happier, and ready to learn. In this episode, Jill Shah, Sam Kass, Kimbal Musk, and I talk about the powerful connection between nutrition and education, showing that healthy school meals can transform not just kids' diets but their futures. Jill Shah is the President of the Shah Family Foundation, which drives innovative work at the intersection of education, healthcare, and community in Boston. Her leadership focuses on improving access to healthy school food, supporting neighborhood food equity, and fostering collaboration between schools and healthcare to strengthen children's physical, emotional, and social well-being. Before launching the foundation, Jill was a successful entrepreneur involved in several internet startups, including iXL, RxCentric, and Mercator Software, and later founded Jill's List, which she sold to MINDBODY in 2013. A graduate of Providence College, she now serves on the boards of the Red Sox Foundation, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, the Museum of Fine Arts, Belmont Hill School, and the Winsor School. Jill's commitment to community innovation has earned her honors such as the Boston Chamber of Commerce Distinguished Bostonian Award and the Playworks Game Changer Award. Sam Kass was senior policy advisor for nutrition policy in the Obama Administration and is currently an investor in several food technology start-ups. One of Michelle Obama's longest-serving advisors, Sam was the executive director of her Let's Move initiative and helped create the first major vegetable garden at the White House since Eleanor Roosevelt's Victory Garden. He is a graduate of the University of Chicago and was trained by one of Austria's greatest chefs, Christian Domschitz. Kimbal Musk is the co-founder of The Kitchen, an American bistro with restaurant locations in Boulder, Denver, Chicago, and soon Austin. Now marking its twentieth anniversary, The Kitchen serves thoughtfully sourced, Seasonal American Shared Plates with global influences. Musk is also the co-founder of Big Green, a philanthropic organization devoted to getting every American growing food. His personal mission is to empower and invest in the next generation who are building a healthier, happier future.
