When your thoughts drown out your inner truth… when you find yourself stuck in constant overthinking… or when everything looks good on the outside but deep down something still doesn’t feel right… Silence Reveals the True Self!

Podcast from Nfluence Church | Granger, IndianaFeaturing: Dr. David ImesThis week, Dr. David Imes shared a powerful message on the importance of renewing our minds, drawing from Romans 12:2: "Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God."Dr. Imes addressed the struggles many of us face with anxious thoughts and the impact of our thought life on our well-being. He explained that science and faith both affirm our ability to change and grow—our brains are "neuroplastic," meaning they can be reshaped by our thoughts and choices. God has given us the spiritual DNA to become more like Christ, and we are called to take every thought captive, replacing negativity with the truth of God's Word.Key practical steps included:Regularly reading and meditating on Scripture to shape our thinking.Taking time to quiet our minds and listen for God's voice.Speaking God's promises over our lives and others.Remembering that our identity is rooted in Christ, not in fear or past mistakes.Dr. Imes encouraged us to see ourselves as God sees us—loved, forgiven, and empowered to live out His will. As we renew our minds, we not only experience personal transformation but are better equipped to share hope with a hurting world.Let's commit this week to renewing our minds through God's Word and living out our true identity in Christ!Timestamps:01:38 Anxiety in Our Society02:12 Topic Introduction: Renewing Your Mind02:56 Faith, Science, and the Brain03:39 Key Scripture: Romans 12:204:59 Metamorphosis Analogy06:11 Spiritual DNA and God's Promises07:23 Changing the Way We Think08:27 Mind vs. Brain & Neuroplasticity10:00 Conscious and Non-Conscious Thoughts11:00 The Brain's Capacity for Change12:07 How Thoughts Become Physical13:47 Toxic Thoughts and Taking Thoughts Captive14:57 Epigenetics: Science Confirms Scripture16:22 Victim Mentality vs. Renewed Mind17:42 Neurogenesis: New Mercies Every Morning18:34 Faith, Healing, and the Power of Belief20:43 Taking Every Thought Captive21:44 The Power of Choice and Resting the Mind23:06 Quieting the Mind to Hear God24:15 Positive Self-Talk and Identity in Christ25:32 Practical Steps for Renewing the Mind28:10 Confessing God's Word Over Your Life

Hey Wildflower, As we move into September, I want to help you lessen your worry and ruminating ways. It is so easy to get caught up in worry and then ruminate over all the things that can go wrong in life. This way of handling your life's worries often becomes a habit. It is possible to break that habit and learn healthier ways of dealing with life's difficult emotions.  Let's start our month with another meditation, to slow down and increase your quiet mind. It is possilbe to quiet your mind, you just need to be in awarenss of the round and round of your own brain. Once you see it, you can do something about it. Each week this month, we will be working on how to reduce the stress and anxiety caused by worry and rumination. But, for today, let's sit still for a few moments and connect with your mind and body. amyloganlife.com

In Visions of the Divine (Sophia Institute Press), Catholic evangelist, author, and a top Wall Street executive STEPHEN F. AUTH, reunites the art of the Eucharist with the Eucharistic liturgy itself. Much splendid art adorns and magnificently beautifies Churches throughout the globe, a phenomenathat came under great stress during the Reformation, and especially under JOHN CALVIN. "Calvin, especially, was very much opposed to [Church art]," explains AUTH, in this interview with JOHN AIDAN BYRNE. To order Visions of theDivine: https://www.sojolk8trk.com/99LK8N/29X...Other Books by STEVE AUTH: Pilgrimage to the Museum: https://www.sojolk8trk.com/99LK8N/PHW...Missionary of Wall Street: https://www.sojolk8trk.com/99LK8N/51G...Indeed, much of this early Church art was separated from the context of the Mass for which it was created many centuries ago and is relegated now to museums sprinkled around the world. Along with his co-authors Evelyn Auth andMsgr. Roger Landry, Steve leads the reader on a worldwide pilgrimage to some of the most spectacular and moving artistic masterpieces created over the millennia to help clergy and laity alike penetrate more deeply into the Eucharistic mystery. Journeying to museums and churches in nearly twenty cities across the United States and Europe, the authors will guide you through the liturgy of the Mass in ways you may never have experienced. Whether you attend church out of obligation, for the sense of community you find there, or for the Eucharistic presence itself, Visions of the Divine will help you make these experiences richer, more vibrant, and more fulfilling. And if you've never attended a Roman Catholic Mass and are curious about what happens there, Visions will give you an experience guaranteed to leave you thirsting for more. Narrated in the author's simple, emotive style, Visions of the Divine presents you with dozens of colorful images of thought-provoking art that will immerse you in each element of the Mass at a deeper and more profound level, including: How the simple act of making the Sign of the Cross, which the average Catholic does eight times during the liturgy, can make you cry Quieting your mind to listen more actively to the Word of God and to imagine yourself in the moment as the Word is proclaimed and the author guides you through some of the Scriptures' most iconic messages Imagining the Apostles' Creed as it was carved and painted into one of Europe's most colorful Catholic churches. Meditating on a lasting image of eternity while the collection basket is passed — a practice that will forever change how you think about this relatively prosaic element of the liturgy Reliving the sacrifice and triumph of Christ on Calvary during the Eucharistic prayers through some of the greatest artistic masterpieces ever created. Following the path of biblical figures, such as Mary Magdalene, the prodigal son, and St. Paul himself, to freely receive Christ's healing mercy, forgiveness, peace, and love at Mass Experiencing the sacrament of Holy Communion for what it truly is — communion with God Himself. How to re-enter the world following the Mass with visual images in your head that will make you a more effective evangelist From Rembrandt, El Greco, and Van Gogh to Michelangelo, da Vinci, and Raphael; from Velaquez, Picasso, and Dali to lesser-known greats, such as Pontormo, Masaccio and Drolling, the array of breathtaking art in Visions of the Divine will enlighten your path to communion with God. You will witness our Father's love for you and be encouraged to let yourself be loved by Him within the Eucharistic mystery.

In this episode J. Ashley T. Booth, LCSW, MS joins to discuss the importance of long-term psychedelic integration. Ashley is a Los Angeles-based psychedelic therapist, IFS practitioner, and author of Quieting the Storm Within: An Illustrated Introduction to Your Parts Through Internal Family Systems and Beyond. With a background in research, education, and clinical work—including serving as a co-investigator on the MAPS MDMA trials—she specializes in helping clients integrate psychedelic experiences through compassionate parts work and Self-led healing. In this conversation, Ashley explores the nuances of psychedelic integration, discussing how this process can be supported through ongoing self-audits, somatic practices, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) work. She highlights the need to slow down, focus on one insight at a time, and anchor felt experiences into the body so they become lived behaviors rather than fleeting memories. The discussion also addresses challenges such as insufficient integration, psychedelic narcissism, and the pressure to “fix” oneself. In closing, Ashley stresses that even years after a journey, integration is possible if one revisits experiences with intention, and she underscores the central role of supportive communities in sustaining lasting transformation   In this episode, you'll hear: What things are important to focus on in long-term integration How someone can discern when their integration process has been sufficient to pursue a subsequent psychedelic journey  An overview of the internal family systems model of the psyche  The downsides of insufficient integration Developing deeper relationships with the parts of one's psyche through IFS Why it's never too late to integrate psychedelic experiences from one's past What to do when integration seems to come into conflict with feeling well adjusted to society's expectations   Quotes: “What I encourage clients to do is to take notes on everything that felt important and then separate them out into: ‘I'm going to just focus on this one thing for like a month, and then maybe next month will be that second piece of it.' And so you're really allowing yourself to make particular practices and focus on one thing at a time.” [6:21] “So whatever wound we're dealing with in our bodies, whether it's an extreme sort of big T trauma or little T trauma… there's a slowness that needs to happen. And so if there's parts of us that want to speed up that process, we need to be curious about that and see if there are ways that we can tend to that before the next journey.” [13:59] “I think that part of the longer term questions are not just how we change our life but what kind of meaning are we making of our lives and how are we sitting more comfortably in that meaning in a way that is serving us and empowering us?” [25:52]   Links: Ashley's website IFS and Beyond on Instagram  IFS and Beyond website Quieting the Storm Within: An Illustrated Introduction to Your Parts Through Internal Family Systems and Beyond by J.

In this episode, Kamini Wood explores the phenomenon of the inner critic, that voice of self-doubt and judgment that often becomes loudest just before a significant achievement. She explains that this is a common psychological occurrence, as the inner critic's primary, albeit misguided, function is to protect us from perceived emotional threats. Drawing on research from Dr. Valerie Young, Kamini notes that 70% of successful individuals experience this inner criticism, particularly during major career or personal milestones. The episode offers several actionable tools to manage this self-criticism, including cognitive reframing to challenge negative thoughts, mindful awareness to create space between the thought and the self, and cultivating self-compassion. Other strategies discussed are exposure and progressive action to build confidence through small steps, and journaling to externalize and challenge critical thoughts. Kamini concludes by encouraging listeners to see the loud inner critic not as a sign of inadequacy, but as an indicator that they are on the verge of significant progress.Discover more powerful tips and guidance here: https://www.kaminiwood.com/blog/Learn more about my coaching services: https://www.kaminiwood.com/services/Follow me for more empowering inspiration and guidance:https://www.instagram.com/itsauthenticme/https://www.facebook.com/itsauthenticme/https://www.pinterest.com/itsauthenticme/

It can feel impossible to attune to Jesus' presence and hear his voice when so many stressors fight for our attention. Factors like health issues, relational tension, and the busyness of life and work make it challenging to genuinely sense Christ with us. Even still, Jesus speaks to the deepest desire of our hearts when he invites us to abide in him through all of life (John 15:5; 16:33).Tune in for this episode of Soul Talks as Bill and Kristi talk about the necessity of inner stillness in your relationship with Jesus. You'll be equipped with surprising ways to cultivate a centeredness with Jesus that integrate practicing spiritual disciplines with biblically-based psychology. Resources for this Episode:Attend a Soul Shepherding RetreatMeet with a Soul Shepherding Spiritual DirectorDonate to Support Soul Shepherding and Soul Talks

Adam Jablin: Harnessing Compulsions to Fuel Passions | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this powerful episode of The Hopeaholics Podcast, Adam Jablin, a recovery advocate, author, and creator of the Rewiring Addiction Loops Masterclass, shares his transformative journey from addiction to nearly two decades of sobriety, offering raw insights into overcoming personal struggles and embracing spiritual growth. Growing up as the self-described “fat kid” in New Jersey and later Boca Raton, Florida, Adam faced relentless bullying that fueled his extroverted, people-pleasing personality and eventual descent into substance abuse, starting with alcohol and escalating to speed by eighth grade, which temporarily masked his insecurities by transforming him into the “most attractive kid” in ninth grade. Despite achieving outward success with a multimillion-dollar business and family life, Adam's internal turmoil led to a profound emotional rock bottom, marked by existential despair and a confrontation with his ex-wife, who orchestrated a life-changing intervention with professional Michael Walsh. At the Hanley Center, Adam's encounter with a Catholic Priest and a striking UV light demonstration of invisible fingerprints sparked a spiritual awakening, shifting his view of God from an angry, judgmental figure to a loving force, aligning with his Jewish roots and newfound belief in a compassionate higher power. Now, with 19 years of sobriety, Adam channels his experiences into his New York Times bestselling self-published book, co-authored with his mentor, a Rock and Roll Hall of Famer with 56 years sober, and inspires others through his masterclass, emphasizing tools like “move a muscle, change a thought” to quiet the negative inner voice and live in alignment with pure motives.#thehopeaholics   #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover  #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #RecoveryIsPossible #Hope #wedorecover Join our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Follow the Hopeaholics on our Socials:https://www.instagram.com/thehopeaholics https://linktr.ee/thehopeaholicsBuy Merch: https://thehopeaholics.myshopify.comVisit our Treatment Centers: https://www.hopebythesea.comIf you or a loved one needs help, please call or text 949-615-8588.

Episode 3662: Erica Layne shares six heartfelt reasons why embracing self-love can profoundly transform your life. From quieting self-criticism to deepening connections with others, her insights remind us that the path to growth, peace, and authentic relationships begins within. Discover how self-compassion not only lifts the weight of outside expectations but also models empowerment for those we care about most. Quotes to ponder: “Shame, the belief that you're unworthy of love and belonging, does not support long-term, transformational change.” “Self-love helps us see our own potential, allows us to forgive ourselves when we take a step backward, and eliminates the shame spiral that so often lands us right back where we started.” “For every part of myself that I've decided to accept over the years, I've felt the pressure of other people's opinions fall away.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Silence the Storm WithinMegan J. Conner writes and speaks with raw honesty about the inner chaos that often begins before our feet even hit the floor. With candid vulnerability, she describes anxious thoughts that arrive uninvited and swirl like storms. But through Scripture—especially Psalm 131 and the calming of the storm in Luke 8—she reminds us of the One who speaks “Peace, be still” to our restless minds. Even in our spiraling thoughts, God is present. He doesn’t condemn us for the clamor; instead, He invites us into quiet, into trust, and into peace. Like a weaned child resting in safety, our souls can find calm in His embrace.

Send us a textGrace transforms the caregiver journey from a pursuit of perfection to a path of authentic love and service. When our inner critic shouts that we've fallen short - that we should be more patient, more organized, more everything - grace gently reminds us we're human, doing sacred work one imperfect day at a time.My own journey began at 16 when my mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. By the time I was 20, she could no longer communicate clearly. Yet her voice lives on as my internal cheerleader, echoing the patient encouragement she offered during my childhood struggles with reading. "Keep going, honey. You're doing better than you think," she'd say beside me at the kitchen table. This growth mindset rooted in grace stands in stark contrast to the harsh inner critic we all battle.The critic shows up in our lowest moments - when we lose patience, forget appointments, or simply run out of emotional bandwidth. It replays our mistakes at 3 AM and tells us we're failing. But Romans 8:1 reminds us "there is therefore no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." God's grace isn't a reward for getting it right; it's a gift freely given, especially when we feel we've gotten it all wrong. Through practical steps like pausing to identify unhelpful thoughts, reframing criticism with truth, and speaking grace aloud to ourselves, we can quiet that critical voice.You are doing better than you think. Your effort matters. Your showing up matters. Download our free "Grace for the Journey" reflection guide to help silence your inner critic and embrace the growth that happens in this challenging, beautiful season of caring.

Most people just start their success journey expecting results to flow naturally, but they're missing a critical first step, understanding their deepest “why.” In this captivating episode, New York Times Bestselling author and Tony Robbins' business partner, Dean Graziosi, reveals his powerful “7 Levels Deep” exercise that unlocked his true driving force, not money or fame, but a profound need for control stemming from childhood instability. When you understand your deep motivations, you'll run toward challenges instead of retreating.

“I don't have confidence in my personality, but I do have absolute, total confidence in the Truth of who I am. And that is available for you because it is the same I Am.” Quieting or shutting down the voice of self-hatred running in our minds often brings us to the spiritual search, and in that, it can be an ally. We may fear thoughts or feelings of self-hatred, but if we don't want that merciless voice to rule our lives, we must question it, challenge it, and ultimately meet it directly. In this episode, Gangaji shares her own meeting with self-hatred and her great discovery.  Just in this episode: Gangaji joins host Barbara Denempont to introduce this potent monologue from the archives. She also announces a new six-part audio documentary, Finding Home, that traces her journey to realizing true freedom. It will be released in the With Gangaji Media Library on May 5.  Learn more about Gangaji, her schedule, and programs including Finding Home at gangaji.org.

On today's podcast, I chat with Ashley Booth, a psychedelic-assisted psychotherapist, trainer, researcher—and former oceanographer! Ashley's new book, Quieting the Storm Within: A Simple, Intuitive Guide to Your Inner World, is beautifully written and illustrated, accessible, and deeply rooted in IFS. We talk about why she chose to create a picture book for adults, how parts mapping can be playful and powerful, and how IFS and psychedelics both point us toward connection with our parts, with the natural world, and with something larger than ourselves. Ashley shares her journey from marine science to healing work, the grief that led her there, and the awe and Self Energy that keep her grounded in the work today. Key Takeaways: “IFS is such a visual model.” Ashley talks about why she chose to make a picture book for adults and how dyslexia, digital art, and parts mapping all played a role. What is the “parts unstack” exercise and how can it help externalize what's happening inside? “All parts are either the steward of a need or trying to get that need met.” Ashley walks us through her reframing of protectors as helpers and the importance of naming needs with compassion. How her own psychedelic experiences influenced the metaphors in the book, and how IFS supports integration and meaning-making. “Self is the conduit.” Ashley shares how visual reminders, art, and little moments of awe can help us reconnect to Self Energy in everyday life. Favorite Quote: "We all need to be able to connect with the love and the compassion that's available to all of us that doesn't judge. And our parts need to be held by that, right? And our Self is the conduit for that to happen." – Ashley Booth About Ashley Booth Ashley Booth, LCSW, is a psychedelic-assisted psychotherapist, IFS practitioner, researcher, and educator. She's the author of Quieting the Storm Within: A Simple, Intuitive Guide to Your Inner World, releasing in March 2025.

For as long as he can remember, Leonard Koren has been searching for beauty and pleasure. Throughout his career, the author and artist—he prefers the term “creator”—has spent considerable time putting to paper expressions and conceptual views that architects, artists, designers, and others have long struggled to find the proper framing of or words for. In 1976, when he launched the counterculture publication WET: The Magazine of Gourmet Bathing, he ushered in the idea of “gourmet bathing,” which has maintained a potent cultural niche in the nearly 50 years since. With Wabi-Sabi for Artists, Designers, Poets & Philosophers, published in 1994, Koren introduced the Japanese expression for “beautiful, imperfect, and impermanent” to the West, where it quickly took on a life of its own. Perhaps one of Koren's greatest talents is his rare ability to translate philosophical meditations on seemingly esoteric subjects into accessible, approachable texts about ways of being, seeing, thinking, making, and feeling. On the episode, Koren details his best—and worst—baths, and explains why he views his life as one long aesthetic experience.Special thanks to our Season 11 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Leonard Koren[4:01] “Undesigning the Bath”[7:30] Century Tower[7:30] 7132 Hotel (Therme Vals)[9:26] “WET: The Magazine of Gourmet Bathing”[9:26] Max Palevsky[9:26] Craig Elwood[13:32] “From ‘WET' to ‘Wabi-Sabi': Leonard Koren's Adventurous Aesthetic Journey”[13:32] Mick Jagger[13:32] Richard Gere[13:32] Debbie Harry[17:09] Charlie Haas[18:25] “The Slow Lane”[18:25] Pilar Viladas[21:49] “How to Take a Japanese Bath”[21:49] “Wabi-Sabi for Artists, Designers, Poets & Philosophers”[21:49] “Wabi-Sabi: Further Thoughts”[28:23] Okakura Kakuzō's “The Book of Tea”[31:38] Glenn Adamson[31:38] Sen no Rikyū[39:29] “Noise Reduction: A 10-Minute Meditation for Quieting the Mind”[42:32] “The Haggler's Handbook”[44:22] “283 Useful Ideas from Japan”[46:56] “The Flower Shop”[46:56] Blumenkraft[46:56] “On Creating Things Aesthetic”[46:56] “Which “Aesthetics” Do You Mean?”

Dr. Rick and Forrest explore how we can improve focus and fix our attention spans in a world that is constantly trying to distract us. They discuss common reasons it's hard to focus and three key interventions that can help most people. Rick teaches approaches from mindfulness practice, and Forrest explains how we can improve focus motivation and distress tolerance.
