I remember the first time I “Marie Kondoed” my therapy room and got rid of materials that were published before I was born. There were shelves of things I never used, and having so many options created unnecessary decision fatigue every time I sat down to plan my week ahead. Over time, I started investing in knowledge instead of flashcards and games. I found my students did better when I kept it simple. I thought my students would be bored, but they actually became more engaged and independent. That's why I was so excited to talk with Marisha Mets from SLP Now, who shares my passion for systems and frameworks that don't require complicated materials. Marisha Mets earned her Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of Washington. She has worked as a school-based SLP and shares therapy ideas and resources on her blog (SLP Now). Marisha also developed a membership for SLPs that includes digital tools and resources to streamline evidence-based therapy, including a one-stop caseload management solution that currently supports thousands of SLPs. In this conversation, we discuss:✅How to manage both physical clutter and mental clutter.✅Identifying the point of diminishing returns when it comes to organizing.✅Deciding when to use a batching process vs. habit stacking. ✅Defining the “containers” you use to manage your workflow and your workspace.✅How to identify your “staples”.✅Investing in materials vs. knowledge/skills. You can connect with Marisha on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marisha-mets-9aa396133/Follow her on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/slpnowFollow her on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/slpnow/ Listen to my episode on the SLP Now Podcast here: https://slpnow.com/blog/how-to-write-iep-goals-an-expert-guide-for-slps/Learn more about SLP Now and read Marisha's free blog posts here: https://slpnow.com/The following resources were mentioned in this episode:“Outer Order, Inner Calm” by Gretchen Rubin: https://gretchenrubin.com/books/outer-order-inner-calm/“Atomic Habits” by James Clear: https://jamesclear.com/atomic-habitsIn this episode, I mentioned Language Therapy Advance Foundations, my program that helps SLPs create a system for language therapy.

How often do you stop and think about how well your sense of smell is working? Or how well you're hearing? When was the last time you really thought about your vision and how it's impacting the way you interact with the world? We're grateful today for a friend of the show who's returning to remind us that when we tune into our body and senses, we can start to shape our sensory world to best fit who we are. And when we are comfortable in that world, peace is more easily attained. Gretchen Rubin has been studying happiness and human nature for over a decade. Her book The Happiness Project spent more than two years on the New York Times bestseller list, and she's been featured in numerous media outlets, including The New York Times, Oprah's SuperSoul Sunday, and Good Morning America. Her latest book, Life in Five Senses, is a thought-provoking exploration of how we experience the world around us through sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch.  * * * Thank you to our Sponsors!

As we wrap up 2023 I wanted to revisit a few conversations over the next two weeks that impacted me most this past year. This week I'm delighted to revisit a really powerful talk with author and podcaster Gretchen Rubin. The Holiday and New Years season can bring with it a good deal of stress and anxiety and this conversation reminds us of the importance of stepping outside our everyday anxieties by truly connecting with nature, our bodies, and the world around us. In this chat we unpack many of the principles contained within her book, Life in Five Senses: How Exploring the Senses Got Me Out of My Head and Into the World.  In LIFE IN FIVE SENSES Gretchen's revelatory journey of self-experimentation, she explores the mysteries and joys of the five senses as a path to a happier, more mindful life. Drawing on cutting-edge science, philosophy, literature, and her own efforts to practice what she learns, she investigates the profound power of tuning into the physical world. From the simple pleasures of appreciating the magic of ketchup and adding favorite songs to a playlist, to more adventurous efforts like creating a daily ritual of visiting the Met and trying ayahuasca, Rubin shows us how to experience each day with depth, delight, and connection. In the rush of daily life, she finds, our five senses offer us an immediate, sustainable way to cheer up, calm down, and engage the world around us—as well as a way to glimpse the soul and touch the transcendent.  Gretchen Rubin is one of today's most influential observers of happiness and human nature. She's the author of many books, including the blockbuster New York Times bestsellers Outer Order, Inner Calm; The Four Tendencies; Better Than Before; and The Happiness Project. Her books have sold more than 3.5 million copies worldwide, in more than thirty languages. She hosts the top-ranking, award-winning podcast “Happier with Gretchen Rubin,” where she explores practical solutions for living a happier life.

To close out 2022, Kelly and Lauren share a list of inspiring books they read this year and discuss key takeaways from all of the notable best-selling authors they interviewed!  The common theme between all of the book titles is the focus on simplifying and living with greater intention so that you can be your best self and make time for what matters most. Kelly and Lauren spoke with celebrated authors about everything from how to manage physical excess to mental clutter such as anxiety, overwork, financial stress, and more. You will learn that in addition to physical clutter, much of the excess in our lives is invisible, it's mental clutter, and you will be reminded that this lifestyle provides us with the space to live more intentionally. Be inspired to adopt some of the key takeaways from leading personal development authors to further help you live a more meaningful life.  Book List (Interviewed) EP.120: Outer Order, Inner Calm by Gretchen Rubin EP.122: Debt-Free Degree by Anthony O'Neal EP.126: Things that matter by Joshua Becker EP.129: Radically Content by Jamie Varon EP.131: Do Nothing by Celeste Headlee EP.132: Don't Be Trashy by Tara McKenna EP.133: Unwinding Anxiety by Dr. Jud Brewer EP.135: How to Break Up with Your Phone by Catherine Price EP.142: Break the Twitch by Anthony Ongaro  EP.137: The Paradox of Choice by Barry Schwartz  EP.85: Essentialism by Greg McKeown EP.92: Fear of Missing Out by Patrick J.

On this week's episode of  The Transforming Anxiety Podcast  I want to challenge the notion that  outer order creates inner calm...because maybe NOT . I mean...have you seen Monica on Friends? Have you ever been around someone who is a complete neat freak? Are YOU kinda sorta obsessed with tidiness? Is it working to create that *inner calm* promised with the whole "outer order" fantasy? Just seems like if this were really true, then cleaning up and decluttering would basically equate to feeling calm. And I've yet to run into even ONE example of that.  Let's talk about it today . And challenge this idea, sure, but also explore what this might look like for you and how you can ease yourself down off this perfectionist ideal.

In this week's episode of the show the one and only John Michael Greer returns for his now 4th time on the Thoth Hermes Podcast. You are probably familiar with his blog www.ecosophia.net and I'm sure you'll be enjoying our conversation on John's latest work, the initiation system ‘The Fellowship of the Hermetic Rose' or FHR which at the time of airing is available online for free, so please make sure to check out the show notes for further information. This time, JMG as he's frequently called, tells us how the passing away of one of his teachers John Gilbert marked a pivotal point in his decision to form the Fellowship. John Gilbert whose name might also be familiar to most of you was one of the significant teachers of Western Esoteric Tradition and the founder of ‘The Magickal Order of the Golden Dawn'. He initiated JMG into this order but then encountered some difficulties in his endeavour to keep up an adequate organisational structure. After John Gilbert had deceased, JMG received permission from his widow to unpack the material renaming it ‘The Fellowship of the Hermetic Rose' and putting out the knowledge in a reorganised form into a freely downloadable end result including a series of self-initiations. Of course, it is not possible to explain JMG's system without going back to the roots of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn established in 1887 although its founding history is more an appropriate material for a novel or a Netflix series. We will go into the lore behind the (in)famous Cipher Manuscripts and shed some light on the fragmentation that followed some ‘organisational issues' and on the respective roles of Arthur E. Waite and Juliet Ashley resulting in JMG's new system of initiatic practice.   JMG will go on to share his very personal story how he came to the conclusion that this particular system works so well despite of his original training with the classic Golden Dawn ceremonial magic work. He will also point out the main differences between both and give us immensely valuable insights into the original intentions of The Golden Dawn and the requirements and goals of its graduates. John will also elaborate on the issue how this changed and why during the order's tumultuous course of history and emphasize how the Outer Order's extensive practice offers a solid foundation for every magical working that is intended (though not obligatory) in some later phase of the practitioner. We'll dive deeply into the requirements of the Fellowship's daily practice and what this means for individuals living in our modern times in terms of setting aside enough time and a working space for practice. We will discuss meditation, divination and protective ritualistic measures and break every part down to explain the basic idea behind them and how they serve the practitioner. John will also share some information on the degrees of the Fellowship as well as on the specific paraphernalia or tools for the work which are a little bit less money and space consuming compared to our Victorian aristocratic peers. In the end, JMG will kindly open up regarding some future book projects, one being a series of occult mystery novels covering basic training coming out in spring/summer 2023 and his next big one on spiritual healing.

Topic discuss: Migration: "Covid – impact on brain" and "Time Management" Presenter: Zakaria Sheikh Safeer Khan Covid – impact on brain Studies are showing that catching covid can impact the brain. Although it is unknown whether this is a permanent change it does raise significant concern about how little we know about this virus. Should we be taking this virus a lot more seriously? Time Management With the progress of hustle culture, time is an increasingly precious commodity. We want to encourage you in this episode to take pause and slow down; shift your mindset and still get things done. Join us as we discuss ways to push procrastination to the side and focus on our time management. Guests include: Sarah Oakley (Executive Director of AbScent, the UK charity that supports people with smell loss) Kashifa Sarwar (3rd year Neuroscience student at Queen Mary's University London) Gretchen Rubin (New York Times Best Selling Author, mother, speaker and blogger. Famous for her work on 'The four tendencies, the happiness project and Outer Order, Inner Calm) Matthew Dicks (Author, father, blogger and teacher.

In this episode, I talk about how at this time of the year, I always feel the itch to clean/organize my house, and thanks to two of my favorite experts on organizing/cleaning, Gretchen Rubin, author of Outer Order Inner Calm (and many other excellent books) and Marie Kondo, I know a bit more about why it helps me feel better and how to get started. A few key tips: 1) if you can do a task in under a minute, never wait to do it (this lets things pile up- think throwing your clothes in the laundry basket, going through the mail and recycling junk mail/looking through catalogs, etc., and washing 1 dish after you eat lunch), 2) don't get overwhelmed, just do 1 thing at a time (1 drawer at a time, 1 part of 1 closet, etc.), and 3) remember that Outer Order Contributes to Inner Calm- if you are feeling frazzled, is it because your house/apartment/room/living space is a mess? In this episode, I also mention Leo Babauta, author of a minimalist blog called ZenHabits(https://zenhabits.net) that I followed for many years. Action item: find one thing from this episode that I mention and try to put it into action this week! Happy spring break for those who have it!

#2. Richie interviews legendary New York Times bestselling author Gretchen Rubin about why she writes and how her books fit together, how to implement the principles and specific examples around Outer Order, Inner Calm, The Four Tendencies, Better than Before and The Happiness Project. Gretchen shares stories, tips, tools and even an important question to ask yourself to be more effective in decluttering, relationships, self-awareness, personal and professional projects and more...all leading up to becoming a happier, healthier human both mentally and physically. We also discuss the tragedy that is an open office, visual noise and why you shouldn't aim for minimalism (but what's right for you).    Gretchen Rubin is one of today's most influential and thought-provoking observers of happiness and human nature. She's known for her ability to distill and convey complex ideas with humor and clarity, in a way that's accessible to a wide audience.  She's the author of many books, including the blockbuster New York Times bestsellers Outer Order, Inner Calm, The Four Tendencies, Better Than Before, and The Happiness Project. She has an enormous readership, both in print and online, and her books have sold over 3.5 million copies worldwide, in more than thirty languages. (The Happiness Project spent two years on the bestseller list.) On her top-ranking, award-winning podcast “Happier with Gretchen Rubin,” she discusses happiness and good habits with her sister Elizabeth Craft. She is also a CBS News Contributor. Every Monday on CBS This Morning, the final “Before We Go” segment features her solutions and tips for living a happier, healthier, more productive life. She's been interviewed by Oprah, eaten dinner with Daniel Kahneman, walked arm-in-arm with the Dalai Lama, had her work written up in a medical journal, and been an answer on the game show Jeopardy!  In her work, she draws from cutting-edge science, the wisdom of the ages, lessons from popular culture, and her own experiences to explore how we can make our lives happier, healthier, more productive, and more creative. Gretchen Rubin started her career in law and was clerking for Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor when she realized she wanted to be a writer. Raised in Kansas City, she lives in New York City with her husband and two daughters.

These days it seems as though everyone is doing it. Organizing our lives and paring down our possessions. Thrift stores have been inundated with donations of clothes, books, and home furnishings that are being tossed aside to make room for serenity. For many, it's a monumental task so difficult it's hard to know where to start. Our guest on this episode of The Fit Mess is here to help. Seriously. She LOVES this stuff as you'll hear in our discussion with bestselling self-improvement author Gretchen Rubin. She talks with us about her new book, “Outer Order, Inner Calm: Declutter & Organize To Make More Room For Happiness.”

Gretchen Rubin is the bestselling author of "The Happiness Project" and "Better Than Before." She just wrote a new book "Outer Order, Inner Calm: Declutter and Organize to Make More Room for Happiness." Gretchen will make you think about what happiness means to you, why it's individual and how to take steps that really make a difference in your life. And she'll give you new ideas. Which is always a good way to declutter old ways and make room for new. I write about all my podcasts!
