Join us for this Feminine Power Time, Embracing Life's Jacket : 5 Inquiries to Find Clarity & Courage in Choppy Waters - one of the four Power Pauses we do each year, this one focused on the energy of Equinox, Harmonizing. Taking a Power Pause quarterly is one of the best practices for decreasing anxiety, increasing clarity, receiving guidance and gaining courage. When we pause at near the equinoxes and solstices, our internal rhythm aligns with the natural rhythm... we gain clarity on how to focus in the coming months + we take a stand to ensure you have the support and structure you need to hold you. Power pauses are a personal-leadership best practice, and a wise way to run your business, organization and team. Also must if you want to stay centered, sustained and sane in our current world. Every year I hold power pauses at this 4 key shifting points, the equinoxes and the solstices, March, June, Sept and Dec - within the Feminine Wisdom Way Collective, and for leaders  of teams, companies and organizations in which we do "Cyclical Strategic Planning." While the structure of each Equinox power pause is the same, every year we are different and every year the world is different. So I change up the flavor and focus based on what's needed.  This year, I felt compelled to share with you a series of 3 inquiries shared with me by one of my long-time mentors - Pele Rouge Chadima co-founder of Timeless Earth Wisdom. Plus 2 sustainable success and wellbeing inquiries we ask every year at this time.  The wisdom and inquiries have def been a life jacket for staying above the choppy waters of chaos, finding my way back to center when I fall  off my 'life raft," and answering the call to what's taking me into bigger waters.    It all centers around "Trusting Life" which is different than "trusting the Universe" .. in subtle but pretty profound ways - both are needed.  The first part of this episode I share what I have been learning through this lense of Trusting Life that has truly been a life-jacket. The second part I will take you through a ritual - like a labryrinth - with 5 inquiries to help you tune into the messages Life has for you, where your resistance might be, and what is calling you to accept and center into so you can receive the gift Life is trying to offer.  See you there,   Christine p.s. SHARE THIS POWER PAUSE WITH A FRIEND ... go through the inquiries together and then this year become re-harmonizers for each other when you get the wobbles or can't seem to find your centered truth.  ***** RESOURCES Wisdom Inquiries - Access on Feminine Power Time Podcast Page Timeless Earth WIsdom and Pele Rouge - https://www.centerfortimelessearthwisdom.org/  Other Equinox Power Pauses - These inquiries are different than the ones I  have done in Equinox Power Pauses in the past, but those inquiries are also still valid for finding imbalances, shifting habits, setting focused intentions - you can access the library of Equinox Power Pauses here.   CONNECT: Subscribe to Christine's Monthly Wisdom Letters - https://christinearylo.com/wisdom-letter-signup/ Linked in: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinearylo/ Feminine Wisdom Cafe - private online community: http://www.FeminineWIsdomcafe.com You Tube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ChristineArylo

This convo is SO freaking JUICY. Today we have on Neha Ruch who is the author of “The Power Pause”

I am thrilled to be back with each and every one of you for season 16—and I am thrilled to be joined by our guest today, Neha Ruch, author of The Power Pause: How to Plan a Career Break After Kids—and Come Back Stronger Than Ever, which came out January 14. We've all heard that phrase about having it all, about work/life balance (which I find to be a fallacy), and how to juggle it all, and Neha's book offers a really modern solution: the power pause, which she explains in this episode. After reading her book, truly, for the first time I thought, “I can actually maybe make all of my dreams work in life.” I learned about downshifting; about all of the stigma and shame that comes with being a stay-at-home parent, especially a stay-at-home mom; how to make the decision to take a career pause to settling into the day-to-day of a career pause to how to return from a career pause; how to make it work financially; how we become so attached to our job titles, and how to discover who we are beyond our titles; and how to find fulfillment in each stage of our lives, no matter where we're at. I also learned that a power pause is not a career dead end, and that we might actually be setting ourselves up for a career comeback that leaves us better off than before. We also talk about how to announce this on LinkedIn, how it should show up on our resumes, and so much more. I am really excited for you to hear this conversation with Neha, and I'd love to tell you a little bit about her and the work she's doing. First of all, The Power Pause has been so well-received—it's a USA Today bestseller, for starters! Neha is the founder of Mother Untitled, the leading platform for ambitious women leaning into family life that is catalyzing a shift in how society views stay-at-home motherhood. She lives in Manhattan with her husband, their two children, and their dog Coconut. Take a listen!The Power Pause: How to Plan a Career Break After Kids—and Come Back Stronger Than Ever by Neha Ruch

Wise beings know how to use the natural cycles of the earth and universe to support us to grow our work, wealth and relationships, and to support our overall wellbeing, and keep us focused on what matters. Which is why at the quarter point shifts of the year - Solstices and Equinoxes - our personal leadership best practice (and one we can do with our teams and partners) is taking what I call a Power Pause. Equinoxes specifically are all about illuminating imbalances, shifting habits to restore wellbeing, and re-focusing your priorities and intentions for the next quarter. In this episode we focus on the last quarter - between now and the end of the Roman calendar year (about 9 weeks) or between now and end of January, the start of the new lunar calendar year (about 12 weeks). Tune into this Power Pause and take a step back to get some perspective on the main parts of your whole life - your work in the world, your wellbeing foundation, your relationships and your personal growth / presence.   I will lead us through a creative inquiry process including somatic visualization to tune into and get clear on: Where you truly desire to focus your energy, time and resources this last part of the year - so you start the new year in a good space + create momentum for next year What two focus points - in your work in the world + your wellbeing foundation - matter most this last part of the year What two relationships - with an individual and with a group/team/family/system are imbalanced and need a reset.   See you there!  Christine  P.S.

We delve into preplanning and establishing boundaries for entrepreneurial women, and the importance of unity among women, free from judgment and societal pressure.

As we celebrate Mother's Day, this episode dives into the state of moms in America with an interview with Neha Ruch, founder of Mother Untitled (MU). She is also the author of forthcoming book, "The Power Pause,” looking at redefining stay at home motherhood.  Neha talks to Mosheh about how the perception of stay at home moms has transformed from a traditional archetype to a dynamic role that blends family life with personal and professional fulfillment.  We delve into new data MU has collected from thousands of moms across the country, with a focus on how they balance professional, family and mental health goals. The conversation focuses on how women are taking intentional breaks in their careers to focus on family without losing sight of their own ambitions. It is no longer a black or white (full-time work or full-time SAHM) phenomenon, but there are many shades of gray when it comes to modern work and family.    Follow Mo News on all platforms: Website: www.mo.news Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mosheh/ Daily Newsletter: https://www.mo.news/newsletter Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@monews Twitter: https://twitter.com/mosheh TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mosheh Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MoshehNews Snapchat: https://t.snapchat.com/pO9xpLY9

Join Christine Arylo for this Feminine Power Time, 4 Inquiries to Get Your Habits and Choices into Harmony for the Months Ahead. One of the four Power Pauses she shares each year, this one focused on what wise leaders and people do: 1. Illuminate the imbalances in the different realms of your life - so they don't become drama, disease, disaster and distress  2. Shift habits and patterns in your daily life that might have been aligned before, but need to shift as you head into this next cycle  3. Focus on and committ to the intentions, projects, relationships that are ready and ripe to grow and prosper  4. Set a new rhythm for your day and week that supports and sustains where you are now, and what you are creating and managing these next three months, into June Solstice.  When you pause at near the equinoxes and solstices, your internal rhythm aligns with the natural rhythm... you gain the power to reset habits that might have been okay in months prior but need a shift. And you gain clarity on how to focus your life force so what you spend your time, energy & money creates what you desire. Power pauses are leadership best practice, a wise way to run your business, organization or team, and I believe a must if you want to stay sustained and sane in a world in which we feel so much pressure to do so much. And then don't have what we need to sustain ourselves. Every year I hold power pauses at this 4 key shifting points, the equinoxes and the solstices, March, June, Sept and Dec - within the Feminine Wisdom Way Wisdom School, some virtually, some weekend retreats and some for companies and organizations in which we do "Cyclical Strategic Planning." I do this because this yearly practice of pausing 4x a year I believe is something most of us where not taught how to do, but when we do it, everything in our life works in better harmony. It's how I run my life, business, partnership, relationships, and grow what is important to me. Each power pause has a different focus and flavor depending on the time of the year. In Feminine Power Time, I can't share with you entire power pause process for March Equinox but I can give you a 40 minute power pause with 4 simple but mighty inquiries - like a mini Harmony Adjustment for your life 1. Look at your sacred work and career - what is in harmony? What is out of harmony? What is calling for your attention?  2. Look at your relationships - what is in harmony? What is out of harmony? What is calling for your attention ?  3. Look at your health, wealth, home - what in harmony? What is out of harmony? What is calling for your attention now? 4. What if you chose to create from a place of joy? What would JOY feel like in you or for you?   Bonus. What is ONE habit or pattern in your morning flow that isn't in harmony to keep doing into this next season? RELEASE this. Then what is ONE habit or pattern you can EMBRACE and place into your morning flow this next cycle? We don't give up everything or go militant. We choose a few things to elevate and release, and also receive pleasure too. Tune in.  Listen to the power pause. Journal on the questions. Invite a friend to do the Power Pause too and ask each other the questions. And support each other to make soul-aligned, supportive, sustainable choices.  With Great Heart Christine  ***** Go Deeper.

There are many things you could do this year, many things you think you should do, or maybe this year you have no idea what to do!? Or maybe you are feeling like you'd rather just pull the cover over your head. DON'T: Let the chaos and pressure of the world, or the should's of your self-induced pressure swirl you up or stop you from breaking through to more elevated, expanded, supportive realities.  DO: Turn inward, tune into your heart and tap into your deeper wisdom and desires. Dare to let those inspire and guide you. DO: Choose to tune into Wisdom with a capital W before you choose your focuses for this year... you know that higher guidance trying to get your attention, saying "Focus here! Here is where the flow and momentum are!"    Wisdom teaches us to use the power and practice of "inquiry" to consider the path before moving into action... which results in more easeful effort, sustainable success + fluid efficiency (plus delight, which we need during challenging times, to keep us going!) One way you can do this is the Year-End Power Pause - taking the full month of January to 'tune in' - feel, sense, tap into intuition and the heart -- to find clarity on your intentions, what's in right timing, and what support & structure you need to receive for the coming year. If we want to access Wisdom vs. just more mental ideas, we need to FEEL not THINK our way forward. CONSIDER THIS: Your mind can only create what it's done or seen before. If we want things to be different, we have to go deeper - into our hearts, bodies, and "subtle energy" realms. In January, I always do a Power Pause episode that takes us through a series of wisdom inquires to contemplate. This year we will use 2 inquiries, and use them to tune into the 4 realms of your whole life. What is matters most to me this year?  Where is the momentum calling me, pulling me, moving me?  Every year the inquires are different, because every year, we need different inquiries to lead us to the aligned possibilities and most supported actions. I comb through the inquiries we use in the EMERGE Visioning Process + the women's leadership councils, to find the ones to open your visioning, intention setting & focusing for the year to come.  Tune in for episode 230:Year Start Power Pause: Tune into What Matters Most & Where the Momentum Is. See you there! Christine >>p.s. BE AN ELEVATOR, SHARE THIS PODCAST WITH ONE PERSON -- Just share, or dare create connection by 'doing' the inquiries together.  ___ PROGRAMS, RETREATS & TRAININGS  1.

When I think about the power of the last 4 weeks of the year we are completing, and the first 4 weeks of the year to come, I wonder what it would be like if our culture reflected and supported people to: turn inward to their creativity ... turn toward each other in meaningful connectivity... and to tune into their body/mind/heart/spirit for what they needed to restore and regnerate at deep levels.  I imagine a world in which we were taught that these last 4 weeks of a year cycle have so much wisdom and freedom to give us ... if we create the space to reflect and honor all we have done and become ... And as we turn toward the next cycle consciously consider what we choose to release and leave behind ... so as we step into the next cycle, we can more fully co-create the next while living the now. Last year, I realized that I had been doing year-end podcasts and blogs since 2007 - focused on avoiding holiday overwhelm, starting and ending the year differently, living with the cycles, completing the year clear ... so much wisdom and practice there still totally relevant - I put these episodes in the Series Library for You Here.  This year ... I tuned into what we needed to support us in this bigger cycle shift we are headed into, to elevate the conversation, and open ourselves up to the co-creative power that is here for us ... if we create the space. Here's the Wisdom I Received:Create Space for Inspired Creativity + Meaningful Connectivity + Restoring Your Deeper Wellbeing  Tune in and I'll lead you through this to apply in your life and reality now, including: Lean into & Embrace Creativity. Release the pull to more producivity.   Use the practice of Reflow and Refocus to create space  Create Space for what you are co-creating in the next year/cycle by Releasing the roles, responsibilities, and roots that you no longer need/no longer serve going forward  Create Space for Restoring at deep levels - mind/body/heart/spirit - by saying NO to what subtracts from your creativity, connectivity, and wellbeing, and YES to what supports Try the Holiday Self Sustainability Practice - Choose 3 Harmonzing Words + Release 1 Sabotaging Habit and Embrace 1 Supportive Habit   It's a juicy way to open to receive in ways that keep on giving, even after Jan 1, in ways that don't add calories or credit card debt :)  With great heart, Christine  P.S.

Welcome to another empowering episode of the Dear Food Podcast hosted by Julia Fikse! In this episode titled "I'm Gonna Need A Minute," Julia discusses the concept of the "Power Pause" and how it can help you take control of your eating decisions. Just like a knee-jerk reaction when the doctor tests your reflexes, sometimes we have a "food-jerk reaction" to life's challenges. Julia guides you through the 10 simple steps of the Power Pause, helping you engage your brain before eating and seek wisdom from God. If you've ever struggled with compulsive eating, binge eating, or emotional eating, this episode is a must-listen. Julia shares practical tips and spiritual insights to help you break free from food strongholds and find lasting health and joy. ------------ Get Julia's Book Dear Food, I Love You. I Hate You.

The third part of any power pause is always about gaining clarity about what REALLY matters to you, so you and Realign and Refocus. When I say what matters, what I mean is what matters in your heart, spirit and body (the mind is not helpful in this realm, because it's job is to sort, it does not sense into what is real, aligned or life-energizing for you.) What became so evident to me in my research around the roots of burnout, overwhelm, workstyle bias, & self-sacrifice and the real path to creating sustainable success & whole lives that foster true wellbeing is this: Most people make the mistake of focusing on finding more time - "If I just had more time. I need to find time. When I have more time..."  This will only keep you in scarcity, lack and slaving away to the now. The Wise ones know that the super power is in Creating SPACE within our NOW to co-create the next.  Which is exactly what I am going to guide you through in Part 2 of the Equinox Power Pause - although you can do this anytime and work with the next 3-4 month cycle ahead.  I will lead us through a 3-inquiry (plus bonus one) process, including visualization and meditation so you can really FEEL into your heart what matters and Stay present to what is happening in your NOW so you can savor what you are harvesting, and truly find joy and feel fulfilled in the process  Name what is wanting and needing to shift, so you can make space for the next, in your now Name WHAT you desire space for - give specific heart felt  language to it and then CLAIM that space with fierce self-advocacy Put the structure and support in place + name the next few steps to make this space a reality that you get to PLAY in!

Considering the cycle you chose - 3 or 4 months Stay Present - What do you desire to stay present to in this next cycle (3 or 4 months), to receive the harvest now while creating the next? Shfit - What is calling for a shift this next cycle, starting now? Look in these areas: What is calling for attention? What pattern or habit needs to shift? What way of working is no longer in alignment / is not working? Where are there imbalances in your giving and receiving?  What really matters to you to create SPACE for in this next cycle? NAME it to Claim it.  Claim the space by getting clear on:: What structure is needed / would hold me and create an incubator for me? What support would help me stay true to this desire & keep focus on it & make it fun?

Wise beings know how to use the natural cycles of the earth and universe to support us to grow our work, wealth and relationships, and to support our health, and keep us focused on what matters. Which is why one of my top three pratices for staying out of burnout and overwhelm and stay on the path of sustainable success, impact and wellbeing in the "Power Pause" + why I created the next two episodes for you, which are really more like a mini retreat.  Power pauses are an elevated leadership best practice we do quarterly, at the Equinoxes and Solstices, the natural shifting times. Equinoxes are all about illuminating imbalances, shifting habits to restore wellbeing, and re-focusing your priorities and intentions for the next quarter. The theme of Sept Equinox is always Harvest. This year, I added the themes of HONOR +  RECEIVE + CREATE THE NEXT WHILE LIVING THE NOW - because I feel like these are the energies and equations that will most support us in this cycle. Tune into this Power Pause and learn some about: Learn the wisdom behind taking power pauses 4 times a year  Making the invisible and the internal visible  - so we can feel it and value it  Honoring the process vs the product  I will lead us through a 3 inquiry process, including visualization and meditation so you can really FEEL and register in your body, brain and being:  How the energy and effort and focus you have given is returning harvest to you (but you have to pause to receive the harvest)  That you have been stretched & chosen to stretch - so you can harvest the strength & keep the wisdom gained.  You are supported & sustained in so many ways - but you have to soak it in to believe it.  See you there!  Christine  P.S.

InstaPot has gone from the fastest-growing kitchen appliance to a bankrupt company — Because it ignored the art of aspiration.  UnitedHealth's stock fell 6% yesterday because the CEO said old people are getting too many surgeries – And funny thing about health insurance companies… they hope you don't use their health insurance. And the Fed just announced a big Pause — Because after increasing interest rates for 15-straight months, our economy is at an inflection point. $TUP $UNH $SPY Sponsor links:  www.Expressvpn.com/TBOY www.Mudwtr.com/TBOY Want merch, a shoutout, or got TheBestFactYet?
