Feeling scattered, busy, or pulled in too many directions? In this Reiki Lifestyle episode, Robyn and Colleen Benelli continue the Mid-Year Reiki Check-In series with a Reiki practice for present moment awareness. Last week focused on the goals, dreams, and intentions you held at the beginning of the year. This week brings you into where you are today. You will learn how to use Reiki on the fly to gather scattered energy, quiet the noise, and return to the present moment. Robyn guides a grounded conversation about present moment gratitude, the Reiki precepts, nervous system regulation, Reiki naps, and how to look at your current life with more kindness and clarity. This episode helps you ask: Where am I today? What is true now? What have I accomplished beyond my to-do list? What parts of my life need Reiki, patience, or gratitude? How can I embrace my current presence with Reiki? When life feels busy or chaotic, Reiki helps you pause, breathe, and receive support. Even a few moments of Reiki on the fly can help you release worry, lower the noise, and find stability in the middle of daily life. This Mid-Year Reiki Check-In invites you to honor who you are today, what you are holding, what you are healing, and what Reiki is showing you now. Key Insights Reiki on the Fly for Stress Reduction Reiki on the fly is a simple practice you can use during a busy day.

Present moment awareness helps you see yourself more clearly, especially during a mid-year check-in. Present Moment Gratitude Robyn shares how gratitude can shift the way you see your home, your life, your progress, and your current season. The Reiki precept "Just for today, I will be grateful" becomes a practical tool for daily life. Redefining Accomplishment Accomplishment is more than a completed task list. Staying stable, supporting family, holding space for others, receiving Reiki, practicing kindness, and moving through life with patience are also meaningful accomplishments.

"Just for today" helps release worry, soften anger, receive gratitude, devote yourself to your path, and practice kindness toward yourself and others.

The Practice of Experiencing the Present Moment as Enough

— In this episode, we delve into how mindfulness and meditation serve as vital tools in connecting with the present, and how therapy cultivates openness to new possibilities. We explore key topics such as defining mental health and human suffering, the role of mindfulness in therapy, and the art of rewriting personal narratives to alleviate anxiety and depression. Samantha shares her insights on nurturing our inner child, transforming language and perception, and utilizing art as a healing medium. Our conversation touches on the complexity of suffering, how simple changes in our environment help combat overstimulation, and the profound impact of finding fullness in stillness. We also discuss the concept of "glimmers" in nature, experiences to cherish before death, and how they aid in overcoming triggers. Throughout the discussion, Samantha shares how mindfulness, creativity, and a simplified life help us embrace authenticity and clarity.  Valeria interviews Samantha Maederer  — She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, with over a decade of experience. With a background in Art Therapy from Florida State University, her unique path intersects art and mental health.

Samantha's approach is informed by her own mental health journey and a belief in art as a tool to process experiences. She integrates Zen Buddhism and Daoism principles, helping clients embrace non-judgment and reality awareness. Samantha specializes in working with women with complex trauma histories. She employs somatic work, mindfulness, and focuses on anxiety, panic, and OCD. Her therapeutic approach includes helping clients reconnect with their younger selves.

Jo Marchant is a science journalist and podcast host, and also the author of several books. Her latest works include In Search of Now: The Science of the Present Moment and Cure: A Journey into the Science of Mind Over Body. Greg and Jo discuss the shared threads across her work: a long view of the history of thought and the mind–body relationship. Jo explains how physics and neuroscience challenge a single objective “now,” describing perception as an active predictive process shaped by past experience and expectations, with examples from illusions and sensory priming. They discuss predictive coding, placebo effects, psychoneuroimmunology, anxiety as attention-weighted error monitoring, and how mindfulness and awe can rebalance attention and reduce stress. Jo also contrasts flow with mindfulness, explores choking and depersonalization-derealization as over-attention to self, and critiques medicine's structural barriers to integrating context and meaning.  *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: Why once you hear it, you can't unhear it 14:49: There are other times when we can consciously override things where, for example, if you hear, I don't know, a record being played backwards or something, and it might not, you know, sound like anything, and you're told that actually there's a satanic message hidden within the sound, and you see written down a transcript of what the voice is meant to be saying. So you're listening for it, and so that's adjusting the filtering that your brain's doing. And so it will sort of tune down some things, tune up other things, and then suddenly the voice pops out and you hear it clear as day, and you think, “How on earth did I not hear it before?” You can't unhear it. Perception is prediction 09:59: Everything that we perceive is being shaped by everything that we have perceived in the past and everything that we expect about the future. There's no differentiation between real physical pain and psychological pain. 22:20: There's no differentiation between real physical pain and psychological pain. It's all exactly the same pain. All of that pain or fatigue or whatever it is , is that integrated output of the brain taking everything into account that it knows, and then it's giving you this warning signal, and it's that sort of overall picture. And it's the exact same pain, whether that is purely coming from you've just broken your leg or something, or whether it's coming from a lifetime of stress and trauma that's telling you that you're in a really dangerous situation and something is wrong. The pain is going to feel just as real.

The Practice of Finding Home in the Present Moment

The practice of finding contentment in the present moment means discovering that satisfaction is not found in the future but available now. This guide explores how to stop using the present as a stepping stone to a better future and start recognizing what is already enough.

In this episode, we explore why change is necessary to happiness and how embracing an attitude of impermanence empowers us to live more fully and freely in the present moment.Become a member of The Soul Horizon community (or give a one-time donation) to support the podcast.

Mother Hilda says it doesn't matter how we are treated, it's what we do with and about it that really matters, how we respond with the love of Jesus.

In this Wednesday reflection on Ecclesiastes 3:9–15, one phrase anchors everything: God has put a sense of past and future into their minds. We are wired to look backward and forward simultaneously — to remember, to plan, to worry, to dream — and that tension so often pulls us out of the only moment we actually inhabit: now. The Teacher keeps returning to the same simple refrain throughout his searching: eat, drink, take pleasure in your toil — it is God's gift. The present moment is the gift. Social media has made this harder than it's ever been, training us toward constant comparison and doom scrolling and dissatisfaction with wherever we are. But God meets us here, now, in the ordinary. More than half the church calendar is spent in Ordinary Time — not Advent or Easter, just regular days — because most of life is ordinary, and ordinary time is holy too. The call today is simple: don't let the past or the future steal the gift of the present. Live fully in this moment, because this is where Jesus meets us.Join us for our daily reflections with Andy.

Religion is a prison, just like Government. California chose crime and Chinese spies. Mississippi "firing squad." Cambridge shooting. The Devil thinks for you.

https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events This panel discussion, featuring David, Marina, Urpi, Helena, and Jason, is dedicated to exploring the intersection of relationships and Divine Providence through the sharing of personal parables.During the session, David Hoffmeister shares insights on a movie where "specialness" is compared to "crazy glue"—the very substance the main character tries to save the world from. In this context, specialness acts as the bond that holds together the concepts, maintaining our perceived separation from God.When we talk about these relationships, what really matters is love. However, people often relate love to a way of surviving, which equates it to a mere tool; they also relate it to dependency, identity, possession, and several other ideas. Jesus teaches us that none of these associations are real because there is no love but God's. All attempts to associate love with the world we see will fail because true love does not involve lack or limitations of any sort.In this light, forgiveness is our way toward what love truly is. In that sense, relationships serve as mirrors to show us what needs to be forgiven, while Guidance is what helps us reach our purpose. Ultimately, Divine Providence is the practice of accepting what is and recognizing the holiness of the Present Moment.Get involved: https://www.the-christ.net/If you want to learn more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events Recording date: Monday, May 4, 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

Ecclesiastes 4:7-16

Hello, beautiful souls! Welcome back to the Angels & Awakening Podcast. I'm your host and author, Julie Jancis. Friends, Mary Rose Gutierrez is back and this time she's bringing you straight into stillness. If you just finished her last episode on returning home to yourself, consider this the embodied version.  Press play, close your eyes, and let her bring you home.

Notes: Our first road trip stop is Kingston, Ontario in Canada, where I got to meet up with three delightful songleaders – and we sang SO many good songs over the weekend! It was impossible to narrow down to one, so this episode is a three-fer, and you get three very different songs, one from each songleader. You hear us playing; making up harmonies on the spot, trying to get the words in the right order – this is an unrehearsed, “what-can-happen-when-you-put-four-people-who-love-songs-into-one-room?” kind of moment. We had such a good time doing it and hope you get to catch our joy as you sing with us.   Song 1: Lifted Music by: Wendy Luella Perkins   Songwriter Info: Wendy Luella Perkins founded SOULFUL SINGING (singing meditation for all) in 2002. An ordained Unitarian Universalist minister, she shares "short-on-words, long-on-meaning; easy-to-learn, hard-to-forget" songs in the oral tradition. Soulful Singing fosters depth and uplift, resonance and healing, connection and community.  Enjoy singing in community? Had a fourth grade teacher who told you to mouth the words? Dedicated shower singer? Shy about singing out loud? Love to belt it out? Committed chorister? Everyone is warmly welcomed into the circle of song. Wendy Luella strongly believes that connecting with our singing voices has beneficial effects on many, many areas of life, including enhancing our capacities to trust ourselves and to learn and grow with others.  Back in March 2020, Wendy Luella, who is based in Kingston, Ontario, Canada responded to the call of our times by taking Soulful Singing online "for a couple of weeks until this whole pandemic thing blew over". She has been singing via zoom every single morning at 9am, and Thursdays at 6pm (ET) since then. EVERYONE is welcome to attend these gatherings. More than 200 of her original Soulful Singing songs are available on tiktok @wendyluellaperkins. She is also working on an online song library of her original songs. Find out more at info@wendyluellaperkins.com.    Sharing Info: The song is free to share in oral tradition groups, but please contact Wendy for recording and/or performing permission. When sharing in a money-making venture, like a workshop, class, or performance, please contact Wendy for permission and rates.   Song Learning Time Stamps: Intro: 00:04:42 Start of teaching: 00:09:40 Start of reprise: 00:47:37   Links: Wendy's website: www.wendyluellaperkins.com Soulful Singing with Wendy Luella: info@wendyluellaperkins.com   Nuts & Bolts: slow 4; major, unison, harmonies optional   Song 2: Present Moment, Sacred Moment Music by: Steph Drouin   Songwriter Info: Steph Drouin (she/her) is a community song leader, singer, songwriter, and Expressive Arts Therapist based in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. For over a decade, she has guided people of all abilities into easeful, joyful, and healing singing experiences. She has helped sow the seeds of community singing throughout Toronto and across Ontario with groups such as Sing for Joy, and in 2019 founded her own social enterprise, Fiercely OK. Through Fiercely OK, Steph offers weekly in‑person and online song circles with her partner, Paul Barton, as well as special events with visiting artists such as Coco Love Alcorn and Luke Wallace - all in the spirit of nourishing a vibrant, connected singing community. Her most recent project includes co‑creating Kingston Pop Choir with Paul. Informed by a lifelong relationship with anxiety, Steph writes and teaches songs that help people embrace their full, messy humanity and stay connected to their sense of being OK. She is known for her warm, playful presence and her ability to create spaces where people feel safe to show up exactly as they are. Steph completed the Community Choir Leadership Training program and Lisa Littlebird's Flight School in 2018, and is a graduate of the three‑year Expressive Arts Therapy program at the CREATE Institute. In 2024, she moved back to Kingston to be closer to family and to share her gifts with her home community.   Sharing Info: Steph says: "I encourage (and am trying to remember to practice) a slow culture of learning and sharing songs - taking time to embody the notes, rhythms, and stories behind them, and to build relationships with the people who wrote them. Please take your time and enjoy singing this song, and if you feel moved to share it, please do. You have my permission!  Keep it as close to the original as you can to start. If your group wants to play with adding other layers or harmonies later, this is most welcome. This songs invites being in the present moment; whatever comes out being in the moment while singing this song belongs in it! I just ask that the song be taught first as it came to me (and my nephew). If you would like to teach it differently from what you heard on A Breath of Song, please reach out. I encourage forms of reciprocity that align with your gifts and context. Here are some I love: - Tell me or show me what it was like to share the song with your community. It's fun to see how songs travel!  - Come sing with us (Paul and me), in person or online. Learn the songs directly from us and hear their stories. This feels important - it means so much when folks carry the songs with an intimate sense of their origins and intricacies. - Song swaps! If you also write songlets, let's exchange. I love being in meaningful song‑sharing relationships with other song leaders. This kind of reciprocity feels alive and good. - Financial reciprocity. If you have room in your budget or are making oodles of money (more than a living wage), we'd love for you to send a little our way. For non-performing groups, folks generally send $25-50 per song or $1 per singer (whichever is greater). Performing or recording rates would be a little higher. For Canadians, e‑transfer works well; otherwise, Wise is my preferred option. - Follow and share our work.

What if you followed people for 80 years—tracking their health, happiness, and relationships over a lifetime? That's exactly what one of the longest-running studies ever has done, and what it reveals about how to live a good life may not be what you expect. https://www.adultdevelopmentstudy.org/ We all think we know what “now” means—until we try to define it. The present moment feels obvious, yet science struggles to explain it. Your brain doesn't have a clear way to register “now,” and your experience of time can stretch, compress, and shift depending on what you're doing and how you feel. Jo Marchant, science writer and author of In Search of Now: The Science of the Present Moment (https://amzn.to/4tKBvbs), explores how we experience time, why it feels different from moment to moment, and how we can become more aware participants in the way we perceive our lives unfolding. Most people have encountered someone who drains their energy, creates conflict, or leaves them feeling worse after every interaction. These “poisonous” individuals often display traits like manipulation, lack of empathy, or extreme self-centeredness. The real challenge isn't just recognizing them—it's knowing how to deal with them without letting them take a toll on your well-being. Dr. Leanne ten Brinke, psychologist at the University of British Columbia and author of Poisonous People: How to Resist Them and Improve Your Life (https://amzn.to/4dT7e5w), explains how to identify these patterns, why they're so impactful, and what you can do to protect yourself. Getting too little sleep can do more than make you tired—it can change what your body craves. Interestingly, it has something in common with another behavior that also increases hunger in a very specific way—and not for the healthiest foods. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3763921/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS POCKET HOSE: For a limited time, when you purchase a new Pocket Hose Ballistic, you'll get a FREE 360 degree rotating pocket pivot and a FREE thumb drive nozzle!

Former Royal Marine commando Tim Howell joins the MTNTOUGH Podcast to share his extraordinary journey from guiding clients through Big 5 territory in South Africa at 18, to earning his place in one of the world's toughest military units, and now pushing the absolute limits as an elite wingsuit BASE jumper and mountain athlete. Tim breaks down how he views and conquers fear, the power of calculated risk versus reckless adrenaline, attention to detail, reserves in the tank, and why discomfort builds unbreakable mental toughness. From combat deployments and high-altitude expeditions to first BASE jumps and record attempts (including multiple tries on Lhotse), he reveals the mindset that separates survival from thriving at the edge of human performance. A raw, inspiring conversation for hunters, athletes, fathers, and any man ready to break fear, live with purpose, and stay dangerous in the present moment.Join Dustin Diefenderfer, Founder of MTNTOUGH Fitness Lab and creator of the MTNTOUGH+ Fitness App in the top podcast for Mental Toughness and Mindset.

Reality is not fixed, and your consciousness is beginning to show you why. In this episode, I share a message from higher consciousness on the illusion of limitation and how the rules of this reality may not be what they seem. I also explain what starts to shift as your awareness expands beyond the boundaries you once believed were real.This deeper perspective will help you understand why reality can feel different, unfamiliar, or less solid as your consciousness evolves, and what that actually means for you.

https://teachhoops.com/ We often hear the cliché that elite athletes and coaches are "wired differently," as if they were born with a biological advantage in competitive grit. In reality, what we perceive as "wiring" is actually a highly developed "Default Setting" created through intentional habit-building. "Winners" don't possess a different set of emotions; they possess a different "Relationship with Discomfort." While the average player views fatigue or failure as a signal to "pull back," the elite player views it as the "Entry Fee" for success. This is what psychologists call "High Frustration Tolerance." To build this in your program, you must move beyond the scoreboard and begin rewarding the "Process of Struggle." The second pillar of the "Winner's Wiring" is "Obsessive Role Clarity." Winners don't try to do everything; they try to do their thing at a world-class level. They possess an "Internal Compass" that keeps them focused on their "Circle of Influence." In the mid-season January grind, "Winners" are the ones who don't get distracted by the "noise" of social media rankings or playing time complaints. They have a "Monastic Focus" on the next rep. You can train this by implementing "Single-Task Drills" where a player's only job for 5 minutes is to be an elite "communicator" or an elite "rim protector." By narrowing their focus, you widen their impact. Finally, Winners possess "Emotional Elasticity." They bounce back from a turnover or a missed shot faster than their opponents. This isn't because they don't care about the mistake—it's because they have a "Short-Term Memory for Failure" and a "Long-Term Memory for Success." Use your TeachHoops member calls to "audit" your team's "Recovery Speed." Are your players "hanging their heads" for three possessions after a bad call? If so, their "wiring" needs a reboot. By teaching "The Art of the Reset," you ensure that your team spends more time in the "Present Moment" than in the "Past Mistake." This mental agility is the ultimate "competitive gear" that separates the champions from the contenders.

In this episode, I invite each of us to consider how much time we spend with our mind in the past or the future in unhelpful ways.

Date March 15, 2026 Synopsis In this sermon, we ask what we might be missing when we get stuck pining for the past. Nostalgia is seductive—it feels like home—but it can blind us to what God is doing right now. We explore how the man born blind models a different way: not reaching backward, but saying hello to here. Part of our series Reenchanted: A Series for Lent on Believing Again.
