Podcasts about spiritual practices

Have you ever felt like life is just too much—too loud, too fast, too overwhelming? You’re not alone. This week on The Love Offering podcast, I sat down with Sarah Boyd—child and adolescent development expert and founder of Resilient Little Hearts—to talk about her new book Turn Down the Noise. In our noisy, overstimulated world, Sarah offers a breath of fresh air and a clear path forward for parents who long to create calmer, emotionally healthy homes. We talk about: Why overstimulation is affecting your child more than you think What’s really happening in your brain during those tough parenting moments How to reduce stress without sacrificing your family’s values or responsibilities What to do if you or your child are highly sensitive How to develop emotional maturity without perfectionism or guilt Simple routines that make space for connection and resilience Whether you’re parenting toddlers or teens, this conversation is full of compassionate wisdom and practical help. You don’t have to live in constant chaos. There is hope—and it begins with one small change.

Welcome to this new series, “Something Psalmic,” in which I invite my guests to share what's lifting their spirits and offering them healing and hope right now.In this warm and wide-ranging conversation, I'm joined by Jim Deeds, a pastoral worker, poet, and author whose “yes” to God's invitation years ago set him on a winding and spirit-filled path. Formerly a social worker, Jim now serves communities across Ireland ~ mostly in the Catholic sector ~ offering retreats, pilgrimages, and spiritual leadership training rooted in listening and discernment.We talk about that pivotal moment when he first said yes to facilitating a parish group ~ how it unexpectedly changed his life ~ and about what's psalmic in his life right now: a creative writing community that gathered itself around him, almost out of nowhere. In a local café filled with young people from all walks of life, Jim is now witnessing deep honesty, shared pain, and surprising hope through the simple, sacred act of sharing writing with each other.“When God calls, God gifts.”This episode is a reminder that sacred spaces can appear in unexpected places ~ on a pilgrimage, in a café, while walking your dog ~ and that the psalmic invitation to praise, to lament, and to trust is always close by. Jim's story will leave you smiling, stirred, and perhaps even open to the next quiet yes in your own life.Jim's Bio:Jim Deeds is a pastoral worker, author, and poet. He works mainly ~ though not exclusively ~ in the Catholic sector, supporting groups, parishes, and dioceses as they seek to discern God's plan in their lives and communities.Connect with Jim through his social channels:FacebookX (twitter)InstagramFeatured Song:Psalm 133: How Good Is ItComparing harmony between kindred with the holy oil used for anointing in the temple of Jerusalem, this psalm claims that such experiences of community bring fullness of life.Learn more about the Habits for the Spirit Course www.kiranyoungwimberly.com/habits-courseGet involved with “Summer for the Spirit” www.kiranyoungwimberly.com/summerDownload your free guide here: “7 Spiritual Practices for Wellbeing in Uncertain Times”Become a Supporting/Paid SubscriberYou'll get:* Complimentary access to the Habits for the Spirit course* Videos of the conversations in Substack* The Psalms for the Spirit Journal ebook* Invitations to future offerings for supporting subscribers throughout the yearPsalms for the Spirit is a listener-supported publication.

Description: Have you ever met someone who knew the Bible well or prayed a lot but did not seem to be a loving person. On Sunday we'll be talking about how to avoid the hidden danger of spiritual practices.

Ancient civilizations achieved things that still mystify us today - from the precision of the pyramids to the astronomical knowledge of the Mayans. But beyond their architectural and scientific achievements, they possessed sophisticated understanding of consciousness and reality creation that we're only beginning to rediscover. When we examine ancient cultures across the globe - civilizations that had no contact with each other - we find remarkably similar approaches to working with consciousness and intention. The Egyptians had their concept of Heka, the power of authoritative speech. Halfway around the world, Hindu traditions developed yantra science, using sacred geometry to focus consciousness. In Tibet, practitioners refined dream yoga techniques for working with reality through altered states. The ancient Greeks created mystery school initiations that transformed consciousness through symbolic death and rebirth experiences. In the episode we're going to dive deep into six specific ancient approaches that each offer unique perspectives on working with consciousness and intention. We'll explore Egyptian Heka and how the ancients used sound and sacred speech to influence reality. We'll examine Greek Mystery School techniques that used archetypal visualization and symbolic transformation. We'll investigate Tibetan Dream Yoga and how practitioners learned to manifest through dream states. We'll uncover Sumerian mathematical approaches that treated manifestation as a precise science with numerical formulas and geometric patterns. We'll also discover Celtic Ogham practices that worked with tree consciousness and natural energies, and Hindu Yantra science that created sacred geometric patterns as manifestation technologies. Throughout our exploration, we'll understand not just what these ancient practitioners did, but how these methods work on both psychological and energetic levels, and most importantly, how they can enhance your practice today. Each of these traditions developed over hundreds or thousands of years, refined by countless practitioners who discovered what worked and what didn't. They offer us insights into different aspects of consciousness that can complement and amplify the techniques you're already using successfully. 

Welcome to this new series, “Something Psalmic,” in which I invite my guests to share what's lifting their spirits and offering them healing and hope right now.In this episode of Psalms for the Spirit, I'm joined by Rev. Heather Prince Doss ~ an ordained Presbyterian minister, lifelong traveler, and founder of Progressive Pilgrimage, a ministry that guides spiritually rich journeys for open-hearted seekers. With over 16 years in parish ministry and a love for creative expression, Heather shares how travel, art journaling, and sacred disruption have become life-giving practices for her.We talk about the power of stepping outside familiar rhythms, the way art and poetry offer space for praise and lament, and how the most moving moments often arise from the unplanned and unexpected. Heather also reflects on the phrase wonder maker ~ a simple shift in language that offered a whole new way of experiencing the sacred.“What psalmic means to me is to bring all of that praise and lament and need before God in a creative way, whether that's words or music or something more visual.”If you're craving space to breathe, reflect, or reconnect with what grounds you, this conversation offers a gentle invitation to find what's psalmic in your own journey.Heather's Bio:Heather is a born traveler, literally. She was born in Germany to military parents, and a love for the world has never gotten out of her bones. This love has carried her all over the United States, to Central America, Europe, Southern Africa, the Middle East, and even to the Presbyterian United Nations Office as a lowly intern. The same love motivated her ministry in the Presbyterian Church (USA) where she served as a parish pastor for over 16 years. Alongside parish ministry, Heather has worked serving unhoused communities. She is the founder and owner of Progressive Pilgrimage where where she now works full time to plan and lead spiritual travel for progressively-minded Christians and faith seekers. She is also a creative soul who loves expressing her faith with (very) amateur artistic pursuits like art journaling, poetry, and a variety of visual arts.Find more about Heather here:www.progressivepilgrimage.com Follow Heather on her social media:facebook: @progressivepilgrimage@heather.p.dossinstagram: @progressivepilgrimage@heather.prince.dossFeatured Song:Psalm 84: How LovelySet to the beautiful air, “Carrickfergus,” this psalm depicts the pilgrimage of faith, through which we are strengthened by God's presence.Learn more about the Habits for the Spirit Course www.kiranyoungwimberly.com/habits-courseGet involved with “Summer for the Spirit” www.kiranyoungwimberly.com/summerDownload your free guide here: “7 Spiritual Practices for Wellbeing in Uncertain Times”Become a Supporting/Paid SubscriberYou'll get:* Complimentary access to the Habits for the Spirit course* Videos of the conversations in Substack* The Psalms for the Spirit Journal ebook* Invitations to future offerings for supporting subscribers throughout the yearPsalms for the Spirit is a listener-supported publication.

What if the thing you're most afraid of… is the very key to your healing? In this powerful, raw, and eye-opening episode of the Sex and Bacon podcast, Sarah sits down with Mistress Mia Payne—owner of Pain With Purpose—for a deep dive into the healing side of BDSM. Together, they explore how kink can be a therapeutic tool for trauma recovery, emotional release, empowerment, and reconnecting with the body after pain. From confronting abuse triggers in a collar to understanding the difference between consensual pain and trauma reenactment, this conversation peels back the layers on what it really means to reclaim power through intentional BDSM. Mia shares the science behind “cellular memory,” the unexpected link between kink and spirituality, and how her clients—many of them high-powered men and trauma survivors—have transformed their lives through her work. Whether you're kink-curious, healing from trauma, or just ready to ditch shame and explore your full self—this episode offers a radically safe space to reimagine what power, submission, and self-trust can look like.

Welcome to this new series, “Something Psalmic,” in which I invite my guests to share what's lifting their spirits and offering them healing and hope right now.In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Almut Furchert, a German-American scholar, therapist, philosopher, and founder of Cloister Seminars. Raised in a pastor's family in East Germany and now living in the American Midwest, Almut brings a deep well of wisdom drawn from psychology, monastic spirituality, and personal experience of cultural exile and spiritual homecoming.“It's the connection to the soul; it's singing the Psalms. It's like breathing in and breathing out. It's the food for the soul.”—Dr. Almut FurchertTogether, we explore what it means to live a “psalmic” life—one shaped by sacred rhythms, seasons, and the soul's quiet longings. Almut shares how her healing journey was nurtured through the Benedictine monasteries of the Midwest, where the daily chanting of Psalms became food for the soul and a sanctuary for rediscovering sacred work. She also speaks beautifully about Hildegard of Bingen, music as soul-practice, and the quiet yet powerful rituals that anchor her daily life.If you're longing for peace, grounding, and inspiration in uncertain times, this conversation will offer you a gentle invitation to find your own sacred rhythm, and perhaps, something psalmic in your life, too.Follow Almut's Substack at https://cloisternotes.substack.com/Find Almut's writings and teachings on www.cloisterseminars.org.Featured Song: Psalm 1: Their DelightThis first Psalm, set to the Irish traditional tune BánChnoic Éirann Ó, speaks of being like trees planted in streams of water, where we can flourish and thrive.Find out more about “Summer for the Spirit” at www.kiranyoungwimberly.com/summerDownload your free guide: “7 Spiritual Practices for Wellbeing in Uncertain Times”Become a Supporting/Paid SubscriberYou'll get: * Complimentary access to the Habits for the Spirit course* Videos of the conversations in Substack * The Psalms for the Spirit Journal ebook* Invitations to future offerings for supporting subscribers throughout the yearPsalms for the Spirit is a listener-supported publication.

Depression, anxiety, and stress are hitting teens and adults harder than ever. But part of the answer is something many overlook or dismiss as unscientific says Dr. Lisa Miller. Spirituality. A psychologist at Columbia University and author of The Spiritual Child and The Awakened Brain, Dr. Miller tells Jesse she uses research to show that spirituality isn't just a belief system, it's a measurable force that shapes how we think, feel, and cope.

Summer at City Communing Prayer July 6, 2025 "If we want to experience the life of Jesus, we must adopt the lifestyle of Jesus" John Mark Comer Practices create the space where transformation can take place. Matthew 11:28-30 28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Spiritual Practices are a way to access power. Spiritual Practices are a way of sowing to the Spirit. Galatians 6:8 "8 Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life" Luke 11 "One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished , one of his disciples said to him, "Lord teach us to pray..." The disciples didn't crave technique—they craved the presence of God, like Jesus had. Prayer isn't a means for God to be understood, but a place to know Him and be known by Him. “Prayer invites you to learn to listen to God before speaking, to ask like a child in your old age, to scream your questions in an angry tirade, to undress yourself in vulnerable confession, and to be loved - completely and totally loved, in spite of everything.” Tyler Staton True communion with God redefines our relationship—not as a transactional partnership, but as a sacred fellowship rooted in love and intimacy.

Generosity denotes the spirit in which one performs an action - a voluntary, unselfish giving of time, money, attention or other resources. Generous people are especially willing to share their resources with others. How do we engage generously within the Church and within our own local communities and congregations?

Dhargyey Buddhist Centre Trust chairperson Peter Small joins Emile Donovan.

Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde is a leading voice in modern faith leadership and the first woman elected to serve as Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington, a role she's held since 2011. While the job isn't always glamorous, she says, the sacred moments in the public eye matter deeply—and she treats them with care. Bishop Budde gained national attention for boldly speaking out against the Trump administration, including condemning the 2020 photo-op at St. John's Episcopal Church and, more recently, offering a prayer for LGBTQ+ justice with President Trump and Vice President Vance seated before her. Her calm, courageous leadership has made her one of the most trusted voices in public faith today. In this conversation with Jen, Bishop Budde shares her journey from a small Minnesota congregation to the national stage—and how she finds the courage to speak truth to power and stand with the marginalized, even when the cost is high. Thought-provoking Quotes: “I think, in some ways, vocations choose you as much as you choose them.” – Mariann Edgar Budde “It's not as if the world stopped on January 21st. So much is happening every single day and there are consequences to the decisions being made.” – Mariann Edgar Budde “I wouldn't have chosen the way they're going, but a lot is being dismantled right now and we've got to be there to help rebuild.”  – Mariann Edgar Budde Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Raygun: Bishop Budde Fan Club T-Shirt - https://www.raygunsite.com/products/bishop-budde-fan-club Receiving Jesus: The Way of Love by Mariann Edgar Budde - https://amzn.to/45GO5jh How We Learn to Be Brave: Decisive Moments in Life and Faith by Mariann Edgar Budde - https://amzn.to/4kbZtan Sermon by The Right Rev.

Originally Released Dec. 5, 2023When an athlete trains and practices in his or her sport, they are achieving multiple goals at the same time. They get stronger by lifting weights. They get more agile and increase endurance by running and doing sprints. They develop muscle memory by practicing their sport and certain moves over and over and over again. All of this is in pursuit of being ready for the competition – ready for game day. As Christians, we have our own exercises – we call them spiritual practices. We grow stronger in our faith through reading Scripture. We grow more agile and increase endurance through fasting and silence and solitude. We develop muscle memory through gratitude. Today's episode is all about spiritual practices. Host Jason Wieland is joined today by Reward Sibanda.

In this insightful episode of "Father and Joe," Joe Rockey and Father Boniface Hicks delve into the complex yet enriching journey of cultivating trust and fostering meaningful relationships with ourselves, others, and God. They explore the intricacies of trust—how it's built step-by-step through integrity, dependability, and consistency, and how it's intrinsically linked to vulnerability. The hosts candidly discuss the challenges around rebuilding trust, especially for those who have experienced trauma, and highlight the importance of being open to growth in relationships.Father Boniface provides a profound perspective on how our daily, seemingly simple interactions are rooted in unexpected levels of trust. Whether navigating a complex journey through a foreign market or simply shopping at a local store, trust silently governs many aspects of our lives. Joe emphasizes that understanding trust starts from within, analyzing our past interactions, and being conscious of the behaviors that foster or hinder relational growth.Listeners are invited to envision their relationships as a canvas, where the practice of mental preparation can be as impactful as the actions themselves. Drawing parallels from sports, Joe illustrates how champions attain mastery not only through physical prowess but through mental agility—foreshadowing their moves and understanding their counterparts' strategies. This analogy extends into relational dynamics, where understanding others' preferences can significantly enhance our interactions and emotional bonds.The conversation further deepens into self-reflection's role in improving relational and spiritual lives. It highlights Pope Francis's teachings on losing touch with our hearts due to societal distractions, advocating for a slower pace that allows for introspection. The two hosts reiterate the need for reflecting on questions of identity, purpose, and divine relationship to maintain a more fulfilled and engaged life.Father Boniface and Joe eloquently conclude that just as much—or even more—growth occurs through thoughtful reflection and genuine communication. They underline that life's challenges invite us to continuously learn, adapt, and nurture our relationships spiritually and interpersonally.This episode serves as a compelling reminder that opening our hearts and minds can transform relationships, weaving trust into the very fabric of our lives. By integrating these elements into our daily practices, we not only enrich our connections with others but also create more space for a profound union with God.Tags: Spiritual Direction, Relationship Building, Trust Development, Self-Reflection, God, Faith Journey, Mental Preparation, Personal Growth, Prayer Practice, Relationship Dynamics, Emotional Intelligence, Trust in Relationships, Vulnerability, Integrity, Dependability, Spiritual Growth, Building Trust, Emotional Connection, Mindfulness, Personal Relationships, Communication Skills, Trustworthiness, Self-Awareness, Reflection, Spirituality, Overcoming Trauma, Religious Guidance, Heartfelt Conversations, Everyday Trust, Relationship Skills, Emotional Growth, Connection with God, God's Will, Christian Faith, Relationship Analysis, Spiritual Practices, Church Life, Engaging Faith, God's Teachings, Podcast SeriesHashtags: #FatherAndJoe #SpiritualDirection #Trust #RelationshipBuilding #FaithJourney #SelfReflection #PersonalGrowth #Communication #EmotionalIntelligence #TrustInRelationships #Vulnerability #Integrity #Dependability #SpiritualGrowth #Mindfulness #PrayerPractice #ConnectionWithGod #ChristianFaith #EmotionalConnection #UnderstandingOthers #GodsWill #RelationalDynamics #ReligionAndFaith #HeartfeltConversations #PersonalRelationships #SpiritualPractice #EverydayTrust #RelationshipAnalysis #SelfAwareness #GodsTeachings #FaithAndLife #FaithPodcast #ReflectiveLiving #BuildingTrust #OvercomingTrauma #EmotionalGrowth #EngagingFa

What do you do when the walls won't move? When it feels like your future is out of reach and your prayers hit a wall? This message from our God Confidence series dives into the story of Jericho — a city walled off, yet no match for God's plan.

This episode was recorded back in January during the Los Angeles wildfires. And yes, we know it's been sitting in our spiritual junk drawer ever since. But consider this a karmic purge because this is the last episode from the archives and we are back on schedule after this! The backlog is fully cleared, the cosmic colonic worked, and our podcast feed has regular movements once again. In this episode, we embrace the chaos of the new year, talk about fire (actual and astrological), and examine why conspiracy theories have gotten dumber than ever. We also get real about personal evolution, sharing a practical framework for identity shifts (where you'll meet our alter egos, Lucky and Tippy) and we discuss what it actually takes to make lasting change when your life feels like it's on fire — figuratively or literally.Inside this episode:The astrology behind the LA fires and why your identity might feel like it's… unzipping itselfA complete evisceration of tunnel-based Hollywood fire conspiraciesWhy manifestation without a plan is just wishful griftingOur new favorite New Year's ritual involving AI and aesthetic phone wallpapersHow to build better habits without hating yourselfThe moment we debut our spiritual alter egos and probably start a whole new religionAlso: practical accountability, dumb TikToks, bad movies, good mindset shifts, and the gentle reminder that even though time is fake, the choices you make with the time you have are very real.From here on out, it's all fresh content. Thanks for sticking with us. Lucky and Tippy are ready. Are you?*******************************About The Serendipity Sessions:We began The Serendipity Sessions as a series in the Clairannoyance podcast so we could have real-time unscripted conversations. Unlike our subject-specific deep dives and guest interview episodes, The Serendipity Sessions is a raw reflection of the genuine bond we share. We have no rules and no episode notes in advance, just a free-flowing exchange of thoughts and emotions. It's an exploration of the outer banks of consciousness where untamed treasures are hidden away. We believe one sudden insight can hold immense value, far beyond most meticulously planned discussions. Each session is a unique encounter with chance as we defy routine and enjoy a spontaneous dance with spirituality. We aim to keep these episodes as evergreen as possible, so you can find your way here whenever you need to. And hopefully, you'll encounter pieces of yourself every time you join us.*******************************Please rate us 5 stars and leave us a review!

We recorded this episode in December 2024. We're releasing it in May 2025. Yes, we know. Time is fake. Calendars are a colonial construct. But astrology still slaps, even when it's late. We apologize for any outdated references in this episode, but we still wanted post it because this is the part of the year where things REALLY start to change. It's a great opportunity to reflect on the year thus far and stay prepared for what's coming next.This episode is an overview of the energetic architecture of 2025. We discuss the biggest planetary shifts, collective themes, and the existential whiplash that these historic astrology formations are unleashing. In this episode, we cover:Why 2025 is a preview of the next five yearsWhy Pluto in Aquarius is the era of aliens, AI, and collective uprising (and why drones might be the new oracles)How Saturn and Neptune moving into Aries will completely reshape our understanding of identity, imagination, and self-leadershipWhy Uranus in Gemini will make nerds hot again (sexy librarians, you're on deck!)What it means when every outer planet changes signs in such a short period of timeThe astrology behind class revolts and why corporate overlords should watch their backsAnd how you, dear listener, can pivot, strategize, and maybe even monetize your way through this cosmic paradigm shiftYou'll also hear us:Predict the weaponization of butt plugs for interdimensional travelPraise the rise of spiritual individualism and customizable capitalismDeclare the death of “cool” and the rebirth of authentic weirdnessAnd remind you (gently? lol no) that you're going to need to stay adaptable, resilient, and a little unhinged to ride this wave.This episode is chaotic, unscripted, and completely vital. Even if it's five months late.The astrology doesn't care when you listen. Just that you do.***************************P.S. PLEASE RATE OUR PODCAST AND SHARE IT WITH YOUR FRIENDS!!!
