Podcasts about spiritual living

Just because we receive salvation and become spiritually alive doesn't mean we are spiritually living. It's a daily choice to not just wake up physically but to wake up spiritually and offer our lives to God to use as He pleases in the world He has us in for a reason.

Quote: The mantra is powerful because it begins to drive the mind in a new direction – toward wisdom, strength, and abiding joy -Eknath Easwaran Chapters 0:26 Introduction to Mantras 3:56 The Power of Repetition 8:31 Benefits of Mantras 13:02 Choosing Your Mantra 17:06 Using Mantras in Daily Life 18:35 Invitation to Experiment Summary In this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, I delve into the transformative power of mantra as a tool for healing, inner peace, and overall well-being. Inspired by a recent discussion in our Facebook group about the habits that aid in managing anxiety, I recognized the need to explore the often underappreciated practice of mantra. While meditation is frequently celebrated for its benefits, the concept of mantra deserves special attention for its unique ability to cultivate calm and focus through repetition. Drawing upon the teachings of Eknath Eswaran, a pioneer in the integration of meditation into Western education, I emphasize how mantra—derived from the Sanskrit words for "mind" and "tool"—serves as a method of centering our thoughts and invoking deeper levels of awareness. Eswaran's approach highlights how a mantra can become a living force in our lives, shaping our consciousness and directing us toward peace and love. I share personal reflections on my journey with mantras, including how consistency in practice has profoundly impacted my emotional landscape over the years. #AnxietyRelief #Meditation #Mantra #HealingJourney #InnerPeace #Mindfulness #StressManagement #MentalWellness #SpiritualGrowth #SelfCare #Wellbeing #EknathEswaran #RelaxationTechniques #PersonalDevelopment #EmotionalRegulation #CognitiveHealth #HolisticWellness #Breathwork #YogaNidra #SoundHealing #Affirmations #PositivePsychology #Resilience #TraumaInformed #SomaticPractices #NervousSystemRegulation #Neuroplasticity #Consciousness #Spirituality #EasternPhilosophy #WesternPsychology #ChristianMeditation #BuddhistMeditation #HinduMantras #SufiPractices #Prayer #IntentionSetting #DailyPractice #SelfCompassion #GroundingTechniques #PresentMomentAwareness #MindBodyConnection Learn more about your ad choices.

Join me for a lovely conversation with guest Julia Mattis, RScP, as we discuss breaking the molds that limit our lives.Recently I was moved to tithe some extra money to Centers for Spiritual Living.  As I logged into the web site and navigated to the place where I could do so, I felt joy and gratitude.  I felt joy because giving in this way sometimes feels like completing a spiritual circle.  I do my spiritual practices every day, I study regularly, I am active and involved, I regularly have deep and wonderful conversations with so many wonderful people who are also active in this teaching.  And I give where I am spiritually fed.  I give where I find value.  That is what gives me joy. The gratitude is because I had the financial abundance to give some extra, and all that financial abundance comes from earnings I make as a result of my ministry.  I've been supporting this podcast since I launched it almost 5 years ago.  I pay the monthly hosting fees, I bought the necessary equipment needed to produce a podcast that looked and sounded great, I upgrade my computer on a regular basis.  This podcast has been a labor of love since the beginning, with donations gratefully accepted here and there.  I love this labor of love.  It gives me an opportunity to carry the message of Science of Mind, and I am extraordinarily grateful for that. Why am I telling  you all this?  Because it felt so good to give!  I just wanted to share that with you.If you are feeling moved to give as well, here are the ways to do so:You can give a one time donation via PayPalYou can give via VenmoYou can support the podcast via a monthly donation of any sizeLast but not least, you can subscribe for free or with a paid subscription to my Substack pageAnd of course, our web site has lots of information and goodies as well.Send us a textSupport the show

If you are like most humans, you have an innate inner desire to "find your purpose" and fulfill your mission on earth. It's a fire that burns within us, urging us to accomplish our soul's goal and reason for traveling to Earth. It can feel like a longing, craving, and constant hunger that begs to be satiated. I truly believed my children, my husband, and being the ideal mother/podcaster/influencer would fulfill that longing, but instead they only made it feel more ravenous inside of me. My failure stemmed from the insatiable thoughts that I needed to be more, do more, have more, and change more. My failure tormented me and always left me feeling unworthy and not enough. Then, through my deep soul journey, the truth revealed itself, and I shared it in this episode of The Hippie Moms Podcast.
