Podcasts about Presence

On today's edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson concludes his awe-inspiring discussion with Joni Eareckson Tada about her latest book, The Practice of the Presence of Jesus. Joni shares the trials and difficulties she has endured throughout her life, and explains how God took her pain and transformed it into a place of resurrection and hope. 2 Corinthians 4:11 says, “For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that His life may also be revealed in our mortal body.” To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/707/29?v=20251111

What if the most powerful thing you could do for your manifestations… is stop wanting them? In this episode, I'm sharing the gift I'm giving myself this December: presence. After realizing there was nothing I wanted to buy, chase, or add, I landed in a deeper truth—this is the state where manifestation actually happens. Presence isn't passive. It's not giving up. It's the embodied knowing that nothing is missing. In today's episode, we explore how being fully present shifts your nervous system, helps you hold what you manifest (love, money, success), and aligns you with what Neville Goddard called the Sabbath—the state of inner stillness where desires no longer feel active because they're already done. This is an invitation to soften, integrate, and become the woman who can receive and keep everything she calls in.

Charley Wininger returns to Adventures Through The Mind to discuss How To Host An MDMA Group Roll Our discussions starts with a quick general overview of MDMA before shifting into a thorough exploration of group rolls—what they are, what they can offer us individually and collectively, who to invite, who not to invite, where to do it, what to include, what to exclude, safety protocols, and just a whole number of things. Enjoy!  

ATTRIBUTION NOTE: This is NOT an original episode. This is a complete episode of The Ezra Klein Show that I'm posting here, with a note from me at the beginning.Original episode can be found here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/what-relationships-would-you-want-if-you-believed-they/id1548604447?i=1000644331040What follows is my own reasons for posting this:---We are at a crossroads in our cultures and societies worldwide.In many places, social networks are in tatters. Mental health is abysmal in spots without tight-knit communities -- which, let's face it, is a growing number of places. The nuclear family paradigm has dominated over the past 50-75 years, but does it work?Evidence suggests otherwise.Single adults living alone are so lonely they often experience significant anxiety & depression. Parents are stressed and overwhelmed, with children taking up so much energy and attention that it's hard to connect as a couple (including sex! and other kinds of intimacy). And older adults are either aging alone, or in environments that sap their vitality.Studies show that trends around social isolation hit men particularly hard. According to Gallup, for example, "[Young men in the US] are significantly more likely than their female peers to experience deaths of despair."And: "Americans who experience daily loneliness are significantly less likely to report smiling or laughing ... They are also half as likely to be classified as 'thriving' in life."Let's review that: Lonely people are HALF as likely to be classified as thriving. And what happens when you're not thriving? You're almost always not having great sex, wonderful intimate relationships, or a satisfying love life.So what do we do about this? How do we "fix" the loneliness epidemic?This is the first episode in a series that I will be doing on creative solutions and innovative ideas around not just how we think about relationships, but how we think about living. I don't mean that metaphorically, either; I mean our literal living environments.We've lived separately for too long. I believe it's time to bring the generations back together in meaningful ways, and have more FUN at home.---Work with usReady to go deeper than the podcast and take action?

Live at the Zenos Health Summit, I've presented on stage why 22 years of mortality research and 371 million data points prove that every disease pathway has its roots in the absence of oxygen and the specific raw materials your body needs to function. I've also exposed fallacies around genetically-inherited diseases, why lowering homocysteine is critical for cardiovascular health, and walked through Dana White's transformation from brittle hypertensive on three blood pressure medications to canceling his heart ablation procedure entirely. The big data doesn't lie, and neither does human physiology when you finally give what it needs. What would you do differently if you knew exactly what was shortening your life?

You've most likely heard of Joni Eareckson Tada, but for those who have not, at the tender age of 17, she had a diving accident that left her as a quadriplegic. Now at age 76, Joni has faced and overcome so many obstacles, including cancer. God has used her mightily! On today's edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson talks with his dear friend about the life lessons the Lord has taught her. She shares how her diving accident could have been the ruin of her entire existence, but instead, God used that tragedy to begin what she calls, “His greatest use of my life.” To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/707/29?v=20251111

There are moments in life when the world around us seems bright and festive, yet our own hearts feel dimly lit. That contrast can sting—especially during the holiday season, when expectations of joy are high and reality often feels far from picture-perfect. Rachel Wojo, host of Untangling Prayer, shares a powerful story of encountering Emmanuel in one of the loneliest places imaginable: a hospital waiting room at 3 AM. Instead of twinkling lights, she faced fluorescent glare. Instead of joyful noise, she faced the anxious hum of machines and rushed footsteps. And yet—it was there she felt the weight of Jesus’ name in a new way. God with us didn’t begin—and doesn’t end—in a Bethlehem stable. Emmanuel is God with us in the places we never wanted to be. God with us when fear tightens our chest. God with us when plans unravel. God with us when holiday expectations crash into painful realities. The incarnation isn’t just a Christmas story; it is the eternal declaration that God stepped into our humanity so we would never face anything alone. In every waiting room, every heartbreak, every sleepless night, every holiday that feels heavy—He is still Emmanuel. God with us. God with you. Right now. Bible Reading:“The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”). — Matthew 1:23 Main Takeaways Emmanuel means God with us in every circumstance—not just the joyful ones. Jesus came to enter real human pain, fear, and loneliness. God’s presence fills the moments that feel the most empty. The name “Emmanuel” is God’s unbreakable promise: You are not alone. We can praise God for being present even when our circumstances remain difficult. Today’s Prayer Heavenly Father, Thank You for Emmanuel, for choosing to come close instead of loving us from a distance. Thank You that when You saw our sorrow, You didn’t just send comfort—you came Yourself. I praise You for being God with us in every moment: the joyful, the ordinary, and the deeply painful. Thank You that Your presence does not depend on my circumstances. You are Emmanuel in the waiting rooms, in the fear, in the grief, and in the seasons that don’t look anything like I hoped. When loneliness whispers that I am alone, remind me that Your very name declares otherwise. Thank You that I never face a single moment without You. Be Emmanuel to my heart today—God with me, right here, right now. In Jesus’ name,Amen. Reflection Scriptures: Isaiah 7:14 John 1:14 Psalm 139:7–10 Hebrews 13:5 Want More?

As we navigate the often overwhelming demands of daily life, particularly during pressure-filled seasons, I emphasize the importance of transitioning from a state of panic to one of presence and acceptance. This meditation serves as an invitation to slow down, embrace the stillness, and return to our natural state of calm.I begin by encouraging you to create a quiet space where you can comfortably situate yourself, whether that be sitting, lying down, or cocooned in your favorite blanket. It's essential to allow your body to feel supported and to grant yourself the permission to disengage from the burdens of your day. As we settle in, I emphasize the first steps of the practice—taking deep, conscious breaths, and noticing the weight of your body in its current state. Each breath serves as a reminder that it is perfectly okay to simply be, without the incessant need to do or achieve.Throughout the meditation, I guide you to release the tension often held in our bodies by inviting you to visualize letting go of tight grips and pressures. As we explore the concept of surrendering, I introduce the metaphor of holding a rope tightly, symbolizing the strain of managing our stressors. By loosening our grip, we create space for tranquility and self-acceptance. I encourage you to bring to mind an aspect of your life that feels heavy or stressful, emphasizing that this practice is not about fixing or solving problems, but rather about acknowledging and softening around them without resistance.#anxiety #mentalhealth #meditation #mindfulness #selfcare #stress #wellness #calm #healing #breathwork #relax #peace #yoga #mentalhealthmatters #anxietyrelief #guidedmeditation #anxietycoachespodcast #ginaryan #panicattackrelief #nervoussystemregulation #surrender #acceptance #justbe #holidaystress #overwhelm #mindfulmoments #stressrelief #mentalwellness #meditationpractice #grounding #emotionalhealth #anxietysupport #slowdown #presentmoment #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Rebecca and Seth settle in for Whinypaluza Wednesday to talk about the emotional, messy, funny reality of a December that looks completely different from years past. With Max away at college, winter storms rolling in, traditions shifting, and a to-do list that seems to regenerate overnight, this episode walks through how to stay grounded and joyful even as your holiday season changes. They explore sadness, nostalgia, new family rhythms, letting go of perfection, and how to stop making December a stress marathon. It is warm, relatable, and the perfect reminder that you get to design a holiday season that fits your life, not your expectations.

They introduce Lauren and Samuel to discuss how subconscious fears affect them in real-life scenarios, such as academic tests and sports. The first example revolves around Lauren's struggles with math tests at school, where the pace of learning is much faster than what she was used to during homeschooling. Rob identifies that Lauren's past homes weaken her, and her teacher's tendency to move on quickly also negatively impacts her. Rob explains how he uses physical intelligence to feel weaknesses in others and strengthen them by deleting or strengthening weaknesses, which he likens to clearing the cache in a computer. Rob mentions that his energy work might be considered "woo woo", but has gotten real results in his work and his clients. The discussion shifts to Samuel's Aural Migraines, which Rob attributes to a subconscious fear of success. This fear causes Samuel's body to act as a shut-off mechanism when he gets close to achieving his goals. The conversation explores how this manifests in injuries during football and numbness affecting his speech. Lauren chimes in noting that she experiences that Samuel isn't listened to which may play into his feelings. Samuel initially denies it and is hesitant to discuss his emotions, and Rob notes that this discomfort is a sign of the underlying issue. He explains that this fear can stem from generational karma, where past ancestors may have experienced negativity tied to their success, passing down this fear through generations.

Have you ever longed for a place that truly feels like home?Psalm 23:6b reminds us that God's presence is that place.

Life moves fast—much faster than our souls were designed to run. Between responsibilities, noise, technology, and distractions, our minds rarely find quiet. Yet Jesus invites us into something radically countercultural: a secret place of stillness with Him. In this devotion, Keri Eichberger reminds us that solitude isn’t merely the absence of people—it's the intentional presence of God. True rest doesn’t come from binge-watching shows, scrolling endlessly, or escaping reality. It comes from withdrawing to be alone with the Lord, letting Him replenish what life drains. Solitude with God is a spiritual practice—a rhythm Jesus modeled throughout His earthly ministry. When we step away from the world’s constant chatter and allow silence to settle in, we make space to hear His voice again. We find peace, clarity, comfort, and spiritual renewal that no substitute can provide. And here's the beautiful thing: As we learn to savor God’s presence in private, His peace begins to follow us everywhere. Solitude becomes something we can carry within us—transforming busy rooms, chaotic moments, and overwhelming days. “But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” — Matthew 6:6 Main Takeaways Solitude isn’t isolation—it’s intentionally entering God’s presence. God desires to meet us in stillness, away from noise and distraction. Solitude strengthens our ability to sense God’s presence throughout everyday life. The secret place with God brings spiritual renewal, clarity, and rest. Practicing silence and prayer becomes a portable sanctuary for the soul. Today’s Prayer Glorious God, You are the sweetest gift of solitude. When I retreat from the noise of the world and quiet my heart before You, I find peace and nourishment that only You can give. I confess that I often turn to lesser things to soothe what only Your presence can heal. Teach me to prioritize stillness.

We all love the confidence, influence, and magnetism that come with strong presence—but everything has a trade-off. When your presence gets stronger, it doesn't just attract respect, it also attracts envy, intimidation, and resistance from people who don't understand your energy. Real presence forces people to react, and not every reaction will be positive.  In this episode, I talk about the dark side of presence. I break down what happens when your presence grows and how to handle the challenges that come with it. Show Notes [05:40]#1 You will trigger insecurity in other people. [21:52]#2 You create enemies. [26:28]#3 Your responsibility becomes heavy when you're a person of strong presence.  [28:48] Recap Episodes Mentioned: 2174: There Are No Perfect Scenarios – Only Trade-Offs 989: Why You Will Lose Some Friends Over The Next 5 Years Next Steps: ⚡️ Power Presence Protocol  Command The Room Without Words → http://PowerPresenceProtocol.com

What happens, how do you react when you believe the thought, “I know what is and isn't possible in life"? What kind of life do you find yourself reading with this thought? What kind of Universe is it? Friendly or malicious? In this group meditation, participants question this belief among others and discover some profound things – including an ever-present fear of a ‘cosmic bitch slap.' If you can relate, this week's episode of Love Is The Power is for you.

Presence isn't theory—it shows up in real situations where energy matters more than anything you say. Some environments expose weakness fast, and no amount of talking can cover it.  In this episode, I break down the places where your presence gets tested the most. I explain why mastering presence gives you a huge edge, because almost nobody is focused on it. By the end, you'll know exactly where your energy gets judged instantly and what that means for you. Show Notes: [02:41]#1 Your presence gets tested when you're dealing with women. [07:37]#2 Your presence gets tested in business. [15:46]#3 Your presence gets tested around other men.

In this episode, Joel Lawrence and Matt Kim talk with pastor, lawyer,  theologian Dr. K. Edward Copeland about how the gospel shapes the church's engagement with today's social and political tensions. Ed shares his unique journey—from overcoming a childhood speech impediment to decades of ministry and justice work—and offers a compelling vision of the gospel as God's reconciling work for people, systems, and the whole cosmos. Drawing on the African American preaching tradition and the posture of exile, he explains how preaching can form Christians who discern cultural idols, process societal events theologically, and live faithfully amid fractured times. The result is a conversation full of wisdom, hope, and clarity for pastors and congregations navigating the complexities of modern life.Living Church - Awe and Presence

In this conversation, Dr. Nick Morgan breaks down the science behind effective communication and explores why traditional public speaking advice often falls short. From the neuroscience of trust-building to the challenges of virtual communication, Nick shares decades of insights on what it really takes to move people to action through authentic, embodied communication.Great communication isn't about perfecting your technique or following traditional public speaking rules—it's about developing awareness of how you're being received and creating authentic connection through alignment between your words, body, and intent. As Nick emphasizes, the most powerful communicators are those who've learned to focus outward on their audience's experience rather than inward on their own performance.This episode is perfect for business leaders, executives, and anyone looking to improve their communication impact and lead more effectively through authentic presence.Nick is the author of multiple acclaimed books including Working the Room (Harvard, 2003), Trust Me (2009), Power Cues (2014), and Can You Hear Me? (2018) on virtual communication. His forthcoming book, The Embodied Voice, is planned for 2025. After earning his PhD in literature and rhetoric, Nick taught at UVA, Lehigh, and Princeton before founding his communications consulting firm, Public Words, in 1997.Connect with Bradley:1-1 Game Plan Call: Get Above The Business.

A Critique of Practicing the Way, Part 33 - Faith is Not Awareness of Presence, presented by Bob DeWaay and Barb Gretch. We compare the spirit "Jesus" of John Mark Comer's book with what we find in 1John. We must test the spirits using objective truth from Scripture, not from mystical impressions. Faith is not awareness of presence; it's grounded in authoritative truth. (duration 00:22:33) Click here to play

In this heart-centered episode, Laurie explores the deeper meaning of presence — the sacred awareness of being fully here — versus presents, the material gifts we often focus on during the holiday season. As the world rushes into the close of the year, she reminds us that the most powerful gift we can offer ourselves, our loved ones, and humanity is our undivided attention and authentic connection.Laurie shares how true presence anchors divine light into our human experience and why this is vital during these transformative times. Through spiritual insight, reflective storytelling, and grounded wisdom, she explains how presence heals disconnection, balances collective energy, and helps us embody peace amid chaos.Listeners will discover: • The difference between giving presents and being the gift through presence • How conscious awareness uplifts humanity and stabilizes energy fields • Simple, sacred ways to return to the moment — breath, nature, stillness, gratitude • Why being present now is essential for the evolution of human consciousness • How grounding in light and love creates ripple effects of healing for the planetLaurie invites you to slow down, breathe, and remember that you are the light the world needs most. This episode is a reminder that presence is not only the greatest gift — it's the path to peace, connection, and transformation for all of humanity.Send us a textSupport the showThanks for listening - For questions or comments email Laurie at Laurie@yourlifecore.comInstagram @yourlifecore or Twitter @yourlifecore Facebook https://www.facebook.com/YourLifecoreWebsite www.yourlifecore.com

Send us a textWelcome to the first episode of our new series, Adore, where we dive deep into the heart of worship and what it means to be a people who truly behold Jesus.What You'll DiscoverIn this foundational session, we explore throne room worship and the transformative power of drawing near to God's presence. We journey through Revelation 4 to witness the ceaseless worship surrounding God's throne, where angels and elders are captivated by His beauty and respond with unending praise.Key ThemesWorship as Response - Learn how authentic worship flows naturally from beholding God's character, not from forced performance or meeting personal preferences.Proximity Over Performance - Discover how worship in the Garden of Eden was simply about nearness and friendship with God, and how that original design still shapes our worship today.The Power of His Blood - Understand how Jesus' sacrifice removed every barrier, giving us bold access to come close to the Father without shame.Bringing Your Authentic Self - Explore why God isn't looking for polished perfection but genuine hearts that draw near in spirit and truth.Challenging QuestionsWhat does your perspective of God reveal about the depth of your worship?Are you making worship about your preferences or about giving Jesus the glory due His name?How close can you come to God—and what would change if that became your daily obsession?This episode will provoke you to go beyond singing songs to truly adoring Jesus, to shift your focus from self-centered worship to throne-centered worship, and to step into the nearness that Jesus paid for with His blood.Whether you're a seasoned worshiper or just beginning your journey, this session offers fresh insight into what it means to be a restless one pursuing the heart of God.Support the show

She explains why your voice is not just sound, but a tool of connection, presence, and emotional clarity.

In this Sunday solo, Sarah breaks down what “reading subtle energy” actually feels like in real life: soft, fast, surprising, and usually easy to dismiss. She shares how presence (and loosening ego/expectations) strengthens intuition, why most intuitive info doesn't arrive like a crystal-clear movie or voice memo, and how real-time feedback with a practice partner can change everything. Along the way, she tells powerful stories—like a psychometry exercise that unexpectedly brought through “horse energy,” and a moving reading where a father's apology, a closet door with white slats, and two dragonflies opened the door to forgiveness, humor, and closure.   Subtle energy is quiet and quick. If you're waiting for fireworks, you'll miss the “pops.” Your body is a YES/NO instrument. “Random nope,” “full-body hell yeah,” chills, pressure, emotion shifts—these can be intuitive language. Presence is the gateway to presence. To feel Spirit with you, your awareness has to be in the current moment. Expectation shrinks the channel. When you “need it to be this,” you filter out the bigger message (and Spirit doesn't obey ceilings). Intuition arrives clean—then the mind narrates. The moment you hesitate, analysis takes over and the signal fades. Practice partners create traction. Feedback + intention = learning faster (and trusting yourself sooner). Evidence can be both tender and funny. A reading can hold shame + forgiveness + dragonflies + a cocktail-party couple saying “just take it.” Guided writing is a real, accessible tool. Calm state + pen moving = a channel for gentle, guiding language.   “Expectation kills openness.”   “For most of my life… I had no idea what reading energy meant. I thought that energy was what I was billed for monthly to keep my electricity running.”   Lauren Robertson's Class "Platform Perfection" - 10% off for listeners with code MEDIUM at checkout.

A lot of you think likes, followers, and posting all day make you powerful, but they actually weaken your energy in real life. Presence is about how you show up in the room, not how you show up on a screen. When you chase online validation, you lose the inner power people feel when they're face-to-face with you. In this episode, I talk about how social media is killing your real presence.  I break down why this happens and what you can do to rebuild real, physical presence. Show Notes: [03:34]#1 You are getting addicted to validation.  [12:15]#2 Social Media values performance over authenticity.  [26:03]#3 You are distracting yourself from real development.  [36:08] Recap Episodes Mentioned: 3300: Why I Am Not - And WIll Never Be - A "Content Creator" 3053: Business Principles For The "Creator Economy" 1862: Want To Be A Creator Or Influencer?
