Feeling Restless in Life Even When Everything Looks Fine Have you ever tried to explain that quiet dissatisfaction you feel, only to be told you should be grateful? You may have a good life, a stable career, and even outward success. However, you still feel unsettled. If you are feeling restless in life, especially when everything looks good on paper, this episode explains why that feeling matters. Feeling restless in life does not mean something is wrong with you. Instead, it often means something important is trying to get your attention. Why Feeling Restless in Life Is So Common Many people grow up believing that happiness comes from stability, sacrifice, and staying the course. As a result, when restlessness appears, it creates confusion and guilt. You may hear: "You should just be grateful." "Everyone feels this way." "Work isn't supposed to make you happy." However, feeling restless in life is not a lack of gratitude. It is feedback. Feeling Restless in Life Even Though You Are Successful There is a unique kind of frustration that comes from being restless but successful. You followed the responsible path. You built security. You did what you were supposed to do. And yet, something still feels missing. For example, vacations help for a short time, but the dissatisfaction returns. Therefore, the issue is not exhaustion or burnout alone. It is deeper than that. Feeling Restless in Life Is Not a Mindset Problem Many people try to fix restlessness with positive thinking. However, this does not work long-term. Feeling restless in life is usually not a mindset issue. Instead, it is an identity misalignment. When your current identity no longer matches who your soul wants you to become, your emotions act as a compass. Restlessness, boredom, and frustration point toward the need for alignment and evolution. Do You Have to Change Careers When You Feel Restless in Life? Not necessarily. Feeling restless in life does not automatically mean you need to quit your job or start over. Sometimes alignment happens by integrating who you truly are into what you already do. In other words, you do not have to abandon logic, structure, or success to live in alignment. You get to define what alignment looks like for you. Why Feeling Restless in Life Creates a Lack of Clarity Many people say they lack clarity about what is next. However, clarity does not come from overthinking the future or analyzing the past. Instead, clarity comes from present-day choices. As you make decisions, you receive feedback. As a result, knowing what you do not want becomes just as valuable as knowing what you do want. This process naturally reduces confusion and increases alignment. Feeling Restless in Life Can Be an Invitation to Evolve Feeling restless in life does not mean you are failing or ungrateful. It often means you are being invited into your next phase of growth. You were not created simply to exist, perform, or endure. You were created to evolve, experience joy, and live in alignment with who you are meant to be. Two Aligned Paths Forward If You Are Feeling Restless in Life If this episode resonates, there are two aligned ways to explore this work further. You can book a consult with Tina to explore private, root-cause identity work and determine if it aligns with your goals. Or you can explore Catalyst Recalibrated, a long-term embodiment mentorship designed to support identity alignment and integration at your own pace. There is no behind. You are exactly where you are meant to be. Final Thoughts on Feeling Restless in Life If you are feeling restless in life and wondering whether this is as good as it gets, the answer is no. Restlessness is not the problem. It is the invitation. If this episode supported you, leaving a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify helps others find this conversation.
MANET'S FINAL YEARS AND THE POSTHUMOUS HONOR OF MORISOT Colleague Sebastian Smee. Following the war, Manet painted a series of intimate portraits of Berthe Morisot, capturing her erotic restlessness and "black" mourning attire. Since they could not marry, Manet seemingly facilitated her marriage to his brother, Eugène, who became a supportive husband and advocate for her art. While Morisot struggled with melancholy, she defied Édouard's advice to stick to the Salon, instead exhibiting in almost all the independent Impressionist shows. After Édouard died a painful death from syphilis, and Berthe later passed away, her colleagues Renoir, Monet, and Degasorganized a posthumous exhibition in her honor. The depth of their respect was revealed in a passionate argument between Degas and the others over how best to hang her work to ensure the public understood her brilliance. NUMBER 7

PREVIEW — Joseph Sternberg — Keir Starmer's Political Survival Amid Labour's Economic Malaise. Sternberganalyzes the mounting challenges facing UK Labour leader Keir Starmer, noting growing restlessness within his party despite commanding parliamentary supermajorities. The forthcoming budget will prove economically "punishing," featuring substantial tax increases potentially affecting working households—contradicting election pledges. Labour faces sustained unpopularity due to elevated inflation, anemic economic growth, and an immigration crisis. The party's substantial seat majority was secured with an "unusually slim plurality" of actual votes cast, undercutting political legitimacy. 1901 commons

In this episode, Samuel Goulet explores the foundational role of solitude and silence in prayer, emphasizing that true intimacy with God begins when we separate ourselves from distractions and embrace stillness. Drawing on biblical examples and teachings, Samuel discusses the challenges of being alone with God, such as anxiety and restlessness, and encourages listeners to build a regular practice of quiet time with God. He offers practical advice for scheduling solitude, highlighting how spiritual growth unfolds as we consistently seek God in the secret place, ultimately calling listeners to cultivate spiritual maturity by knowing God personally and pressing on even when it feels awkward or difficult.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, explores what happens when the job that once gave you purpose, structure, belonging, and identity (Amazon Affiliate) is suddenly gone. Whether retirement was planned, forced, medical, or accelerated by burnout — the emotional fallout can feel like a quiet identity collapse. Many officers describe the transition not as relief, but as loss. Loss of routine. Loss of brotherhood. Loss of purpose. Loss of who they believed they were. This episode helps make sense of that experience — and offers a path to rebuild identity that isn't dependent on the uniform.
In this Halloween week episode, Alyssa and Nadia explore themes of control, guidance, and finding meaning in uncertain times — with a little help from tarot cards.Nadia opens up about getting her tarot cards read by a friend and pulling three cards representing her past, present, and future: Judgment (awakening and rebirth), Knight of Wands reversed (restlessness, impatience, burnout), and King of Cups (emotional maturity and compassion). What starts as a playful conversation about divination turns into something deeper as Nadia admits she was seeking guidance from the universe — not advice from advisors or family, but confirmation that she's doing things for the right reasons.They discuss why tarot cards resonate: not because they predict the future, but because they offer a mirror to reflect what's already inside us. Nadia shares how she's been feeling stuck, burnt out, and craving control over her life — themes that showed up perfectly in her cards. Alyssa shares a memorable story about Nadia's dad getting his tarot read at a wedding, pulling cards that eerily captured his question about how to maintain a relationship with his daughter as she grew up.The conversation expands into broader reflections on spirituality, organized religion, and why people seek connection with something bigger than themselves. Nadia reveals she's struggling with wanting control but recognizing she can't have it — and how that tension shows up everywhere from her busy schedule to her career uncertainties. They touch on Halloween plans, costume culture, and the fantasy of having superpowers (spoiler: they'd both freeze time).At its heart, this is an episode about what we turn to when life feels overwhelming — whether it's tarot cards, faith, or simply the hope that we're on the right path.TakeawaysTarot cards aren't about predicting the future — they're about reflecting what's already inside youSometimes we seek guidance from "the universe" when we need permission to trust ourselvesFeeling burnt out and restless is a sign you're craving control over an uncertain futureYou can't control everything, and trying to will only lead to more frustrationThe power of tarot (and spirituality in general) lies in giving structure and meaning to our experiencesWhat we wish for reveals what we're struggling with: wanting to freeze time = feeling overwhelmed by paceAuthenticity and emotional honesty are lifelong practices, not destinationsEven organized religion and spiritual practices tap into the same human need for connection with something greaterIt's okay to seek comfort and reassurance wherever you can find it — tarot, faith, or conversationChapters0:11–1:10 – Halloween Week & Missing Each Other1:11–2:43 – Bar Crawls, Costumes & Female Halloween Culture2:44–4:39 – The Comfort of Wearing a Costume (Plus: Flash Mobs!)4:40–6:25 – Halloween Plans: New York, Parties & Marathon Weekend6:26–9:47 – Nadia's Tarot Card Reading: Past, Present, Future9:48–13:05 – Why the Cards Resonated: Burnout, Restlessness & Hope13:06–16:39 – How Tarot Works: Taking What Resonates, Leaving the Rest16:40–19:49 – Alyssa's Story: Eric's Tarot Reading About Parenting Nadia19:50–20:50 – Tarot, Church & Understanding Spirituality Differently20:51–23:22 – "I Wish I Was a Witch": The Fantasy of Control23:23–26:39 – Superpowers & What They Reveal: Freezing Time vs. Reading Minds26:40–28:10 – Connecting the Cards to Life: Past Judgment, Present Burnout, Future Compassion

In Urdu, chain means comfort, meaning when the heart finally feels at ease. Bechaini is the opposite. It is the restlessness that keeps you awake, searching for something more, something else.Poets like Faiz Ahmad Faiz, Shaikh Ibrahim Zauq, and Josh Malihabadi wrote from this space between calm and chaos. Maybe that's what it is. Not choosing between comfort and restlessness, but learning to live with both and to let chain and bechaini speak to each other inside of us.

"[Americans] spend their hours and money on the couch searching for a soul...If I wanted to destroy a nation, I would give it too much and I would have it on its knees, miserable, greedy and sick." -John SteinbeckAmerican author and California native John Steinbeck wrote an amazing book towards the end of his life, "Travels with Charley in Search of America." He wrote the book towards the end of his life when he knew he had terminal heart disease. Here's a short book share review on American restlessness and possibly why we are such a restless culture.Here's a nice review by "Listening to America" and Clay Jenkinson on Steinbeck's "Travels with Charlie" and his 1960 GMC Pick-Up at the National Steinbeck Center.
What if Jesus said to you, “You don't yet look as happy as I mean you to be”?In a culture drowning in distraction, hurry, and exhaustion, Sabbath is God's radical invitation to freedom. Drawing from Scripture, neuroscience, and real-life stories, this sermon explores what it means to stop, rest, delight, and worship. You'll discover how Sabbath is not just a day off, but a life-giving practice that helps us get our souls back, resist the gods of productivity, and step into the joy God intends for us.
In this satsang, a student who has been working earnestly with the pointings comes forward to clarify his seeing. Delighted by this focus, Moojibaba takes this opportunity to guide the sangha into the clear recognition and revelation of pure Being. “You come to a place where there is this space that is simply here. Does it need anything? Is there any sense of dissatisfaction here? Restlessness can appear in the great expanse, but that pure awareness itself, is it restless? Is it personal or impersonal? It is this that I refer to as your Self.” Monte Sahaja, Portugal 18 September 2025 ~ More talks like this are available on Sahaja Express: https://mooji.org/sahaja-express

The archetype of the Wanderer appears as a figure of profound loneliness, who drifts through life without a fixed home or direction, restless in the search for purpose and belonging. He has far-sickness, a deep longing for distant places and the hope of eventually finding a place on earth where he truly feels at home. The Wanderer longs for home, yet feels at home nowhere, dwelling in a liminal space between past and present, the familiar and the unknown, echoing what Lovecraft wrote: “I know always that I am an outsider; a stranger in this century and among those who are still men.”If there is one key characteristic of the Wanderer, it is restlessness, which appears as a constant need to chase the next thing, whether it be in the outer world. Once something is achieved, the Wanderer is no longer satisfied, and seeks something else, ad infinitum. This insatiable desire is the cause of much of our suffering. One could say that the Wanderer cannot commit to anything, but he is certainly committed to wandering. After a long period of aimless wandering, one may finally commit to the inner journey, and the archetype of the Seeker becomes constellated, beginning the search for one's soul. The focus of life shifts from external achievements and aimless wandering to the pursuit of self-realisation and theosis (union with God).

• In scripture and tradition, the devil is often portrayed as wandering, roaming, seeking whom he may devour. He's never at peace because he's cut off from grace. • Restlessness is a symptom of exile. The devil cannot rest because he cannot dwell in love, cannot abide in truth, cannot be still in the presence of God. • His movement is frantic, not purposeful. It's noise without rhythm. Motion without meaning. • Rest isn't laziness—it's obedience. God rested on the seventh day not because He was tired, but to model rhythm, reflection, and reverence. • In Exodus and Deuteronomy, Sabbath is a commandment. But it's also a gift. A holy pause that says: “I am not defined by my labor. I am held by something greater.” • Jesus himself withdrew to rest and pray. Even in the storm, He slept—because He trusted the Father.
St. Paul remind us in 1 Corinthians 10 of the Israelites consistent idolatry while following God in the wilderness journey. God had released them from their bondage and delivered them to Himself. There in the wilderness He shepherded them providing all they need for the journey to the Promised Land. But their restless hearts kept wanting more, departing the Lord their God, and pursuing something other than God to find their contentment. How often we do the same. It is time that we learn to find our rest in Christ and Christ alone who has delivered us from our oppressor and provided us with everything we need for life and salvation in Himself.

What is this feeling we call restlessness? It feels like something is off. There's an agitation or irritation interpreted as something that can't be felt; something needs to be different. .

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Bernardo Huberman, Ph.D., a research physicist, expert on quantum networks, and vice president of CableLabs' Next-Gen Systems. We discuss his journey into science, beginning in South America, how a curiosity about physics led him to the United States, and how his hunger for studying novel problems guided him into fields like physics, computer science, biology, economics, and, most recently, quantum computing. He explains relativity theory, chaos theory, fractals, and quantum internet in terms anyone can understand. We explore how curiosity has continually guided his decisions about what to study and how to live, and how researching hard, even abstract, problems can serve as a model for staying grounded and enjoying everyday life. We also discuss meditation, spirituality, and why continually asking questions about how the world is organized can bring about an immense and lasting sense of meaning and joy.
