What if burnout is not evidence that you are too sensitive, but a signal that your energy body has been carrying more than it was meant to hold? When you learn to work with your empathic system instead of against it, your sensitivity becomes a source of strength and intuitive power.This episode of the Mystic Body Show explores how empaths and intuitive practitioners can prevent and recover from burnout through boundary work, grounding practices, and Ecstatic Empathy. Christel shares practical tools for energy management, stress reduction, and cultivating intuitive clarity. Learn how to balance your sensitive system through somatic techniques, elemental clearing, and conscious self-care.If you are ready for a private Rites of Passage retreat in Sedona, visit https://www.MysticBodyAcademy.com/rite-of-passageUntil next time, breathe gently, listen to you guidance and create miracles.00:00 Introduction to Overcoming Burnout01:05 Understanding Burnout and Its Impact03:03 Techniques for Managing Burnout03:24 Practicing Ecstatic Empathy10:15 Setting Healthy Boundaries16:58 Clearing and Grounding Practices19:35 Restoring Your System After Burnout22:29 Conclusion and InvitationQuestions?

In this episode, I get into the harmony that exists between dominance and submission through the lens of masculine and feminine energy. I break down what true dominance looks and feels like and why domineering energy is not dominance. I reflect on ancient rites of passage with an example from Africa and bring in an example from salsa dancing as well.Listen in to learn about the spiritual purpose of rites of passage for men, why dominance without care becomes domineering, why the stages of development matter so much for boys, and more.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 — Intro00:34 — Welcome: The Yin & Yang of Submission00:55 — A Word on Coaching 01:28 — What Women Want: Dominance & Devotion 02:14 — True Dominance is Service 02:45 — To Be Dominant, You Must Be Submissive03:20 — Rites of Passage: The Bullet Ant Ritual 05:37 — The Difference Between Dominance and Domineering 06:00 — Submitting to a Higher Purpose 06:57 — Life Stage 1: The Bond With Mom 09:39 — Life Stage 2: Building Self-Worth With Dad 13:04 — Life Stage 3: The Male Mentor 14:40 — A Lesson in Service From a Salsa Class 15:40 — The Sioux: Warriors & Lovers Without Shame 18:11 — Conclusion & Outro___________________________If you found some value today then help me spread the word!

Send us a textA journey through the ancient mystery of spiritual transformation — from the death of the old self to the birth of the divine within.Across myth and mysticism, every true initiation burns away illusion: Odin hanging on the tree, Hermes beholding the fire of creation, shamans torn apart and remade by spirits, alchemists tending the secret furnace of the soul. Through fire and water, the initiate is dissolved, purified, and reborn — entering the living current that joins all beginnings and ends.This episode explores the second stage of initiation: the ordeal of transformation. Drawing from myth, historical occult texts, and contemporary scholarship, we trace the archetype of supernatural aid, exploring its role in the realization of the true self and world. Support the showAll episodes are available in video format on YouTube Send your personal experiences (spiritual, paranormal), questions, comments, or business inquiries to: hiddenpassagepodcast@gmail.comYou can also send a voice message through SpeakPipeFollow on Instagram & TwitterPlease consider rating/ leaving a review.

Aujourd'hui, je t'invite à explorer un moment de vie souvent mal compris : la fin de vie et tout ce qu'elle implique sur le plan culturel et spirituel. À l'occasion de la Toussaint, je te rappelle que chaque personne vit ce passage différemment, selon ses croyances, sa culture et ses souvenirs. À travers des exemples personnels et des anecdotes, je te montre que les rituels – parfois simples, parfois complexes – sont essentiels pour apporter paix et cohérence, aussi bien à la personne concernée qu'à ses proches. Je te souligne l'importance de poser des questions, d'être attentif à l'histoire et aux besoins de chacun, et de transformer l'impuissance face à la mort en une présence active et bienveillante. Dans cet épisode, je te partage des pistes concrètes pour mieux accompagner la diversité des croyances en fin de vie, et nous invite à réfléchir à nos propres rituels, même si ceux-ci ne nous sont pas familiers. Un rendez-vous touchant et inspirant pour toutes celles et ceux qui souhaitent offrir un vrai soutien, ouvert et respectueux, dans ces instants de passage. Prends le temps d'écouter et laisse-toi inspirer par ces histoires de transmission, d'amour et de compassion universelle. Bienvenue dans la saison 5 "La voix en héritage"! Rejoins moi sur Sweet Elles : https://go.sweetpapipodcast.com/sweetelles Voici 3 enseignements clés à retenir de cet épisode : Respecter les rituels, c'est respecter la personne :Les rites de fin de vie ne sont pas de simples traditions, ils sont des repères essentiels pour celui qui part et ses proches. Qu'il s'agisse de l'orientation du corps, de la présence d'objets ou de la récitation de prières, chaque geste a une importance profonde. L'audace de poser des questions fait toute la différence : Oser demander à la personne ou à sa famille ce qui compte pour elle, c'est ouvrir la porte au dialogue et éviter les maladresses. Mieux vaut reconnaître ce qu'on ignore que négliger un besoin fondamental. Les rituels culturels sont thérapeutiques : Pour les proches, accompagner ces gestes permet de transformer l'impuissance en une présence active, porteuse de sens et d'apaisement. Ce partage puissant nous invite à repenser notre rôle d'aidant, quel que soit notre métier ou notre place auprès de nos proches. Timeline de l'épisode 00:00:2500:00:30 La fin de vie, un carrefour culturel : « La fin de vie, c'est aussi un carrefour où nos cultures, nos croyances, nos mémoires collectives se rencontrent. » 00:02:2100:02:29 L'importance des rituels en fin de vie : « Au début, je n'y avais pas pensé, je n'avais pas réalisé l'importance de ces rituels. Pour moi, l'essentiel était le confort médical, le soin. » 00:04:2200:04:24 Respect des rites culturels : "ces gestes parfois simples sont des points d'ancrage." 00:05:0600:05:30 Vie et rituels : "les rites ne sont pas accessoires ils sont thérapeutiques à leur manière ils ne prolongent pas la vie ils n'abrèchent pas la vie ils lui donnent une cohérence jusqu'au bout Pour les proches, ils sont un repère de continuité, ils savent qu'ils ont respecté ce qui comptait, c'était une manière de transformer l'impuissance en présence active." 00:05:5300:06:00 Rituels culturels et soutien : "Prends conscience des rituels culturels qui ne sont pas les tiens Et ça pour soutenir un proche d'une autre culture."

"We were just trying to talk about, like, evolution and man's inhumanity to man, and I don't really ever think we got to the core, the bedrock of emo experience." In this episode of Emo Social Club, we chat with Brian of the legendary punk band Bad Religion about the band's enduring legacy and their connection to the emo and pop punk scene. Even with a focus on heavier topics like evolution and "man's inhumanity to man," Brian acknowledges the unintentional emo history all over their sound. He shares that their influence on the genre was never a plan but a product of being in the right place at the right time. Bad Religion's body of work has inspired people cross genre, which is why they get invited to both massive emo revival festivals and "insane black metal kill your mom festivals". Brian also gives his thoughts on the current punk environment, stressing the importance of new bands making their own thing and the pure joy of participating in music. It's a fantastic conversation connecting the original California punk scene to today's waves.Timestamps:[00:00] Introduction: Talking with Brian from Bad Religion[00:09] Brian on his enjoyment of emo in small doses[00:20] The most emo song he's listening to right now: "Drink Deep" by Rites of Spring[00:34] Why Bad Religion is considered emo—the unintentional foundation[01:01] Feeling honored to be invited into the current emo and pop-punk wave[01:20] Playing both huge emo festivals and "insane black metal" shows[02:05] Bad Religion's legacy: Playing good songs and genuinely loving to play[02:30] Not wanting to see old bands that are "phoning it in"[03:22] Why the current punk environment doesn't need Bad Religion's help or advice[03:41] Seeing wonderful, intense, new bands like Doubt and Dry Socket[04:28] Touring with The Offspring next yearBand Links:Spotify: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/badreligionband/?hl=enOfficial Website: https://badreligion.com/Tour Dates: https://badreligion.com/tourJOIN THE CLUB!

In this episode, Demi Lee takes us deep into the story of Eclectica — a movement, a community, and a living expression of embodiment and transformation. Together, we explore how dance becomes a language for healing, how grief can serve as an elder and sacred teacher, and how true empowerment begins with self-responsibility.Demi shares the evolution of Eclectica from a creative experiment into a profound rite of passage — one that invites people to come home to their bodies, their emotions, and their truth. Through honest reflections on community, relationships, and heart-centered living, this conversation reveals how we can turn life's challenges into initiations that reconnect us with purpose and love.It's an exploration of what it means to live embodied, to honor our inner seasons, and to build communities that hold us through the cycles of becoming.Key Takeaways: - Grief is not just loss — it's an initiation into depth, compassion, and the full spectrum of love.- Movement and dance can reconnect us with intuition, release stored emotion, and ground us in presence.- The Power of Community: holding people in the dark.- Self-Responsibility in Relationships: Owning our patterns and triggers allows for more authentic, heart-based connection.- Rites of Passage: rituals that mark transformation. - Choosing love, responsibility, boundaries, and honesty as guiding principles transforms how we show up in the world.- A journey into remembering who you are beneath the noise — embodied, empowered, and whole.Show Notes Eclectica - https://www.eclecticahub.com/Passage of Self Online Course - https://www.eclecticahub.com/passage-of-selfSupport the ShowCasual Support - Buy Me A CoffeeRegular Support - PatreonBuy the Books - Futuresteading - live like tomorrow matters, Huddle - creating a tomorrow of togethernessSupport the show

At this point, we have all witnessed exorcisms taking place. Fictional ones, of course, but nonetheless, horror fans, and those poor souls that we have dragged to the movies with us, have all witnessed a young priest and an old priest, reciting the Rites of Exorcism over a writhing, spitting, tormented man, woman, or child. We're scared but we know it's not real. We know they are playing characters in a movie. But how would you react if you were watching a real person go through it all? Well in April of 1991, ABC viewers were faced with that very question when “20/20” aired the live exorcism of a teenager known only as “Gina.”

In this conversation, Jade sits down with Meg Ulman (sadly not in person) — heart led writer, mother, educator, maker & one part of Artists as Family — to unpick what it really means to live on your own terms.They trace the winding road toward a neo-peasant life — one defined less by nostalgia & more by intention. They talk about living with a fundamental trust in yourself to make decisions, parenting within community & the grit & grace of staying true to your values.Meg describes herself as cash poor but time rich, together they explore what that trade-off really feels like.They talk about the ache of impermanence — how everything we love we will lose —  what it means to become good at grief rather than trying to outrun it. What it feels like to feel alive, trusting your instinct to survive & holding a desire to be part of that holding — the invisible web that keeps us tethered to one another & to the earth itself.Meg shares her reflections on solitude, on listening deeply to the land beneath her feet & on the quiet privileges of aging — not as decline, but as initiation. There's talk of ritual, of story & of the small daily acts that remind us who we are.It's a conversation that doesn't romanticise simplicity but celebrates the beauty & honesty of a life well noticed.Links You'll LoveArtist As Family You TubeLoved this?

Pastor Mike & Dr Jeffrey join Something For Everybody this week. Dr. Mike Hayes and Dr. Jeffrey Garner guide individuals toward rediscovering joy and spiritual clarity. With a mission to help people take control of their lives, they emphasize the importance of redirecting one's “happiness radar” inward.

We share personal stories of hardship and resilience, emphasizing the importance of community, mentorship, and the internal journey towards happiness.
