Spiritual Freedom - Stillness : The Freedom from Egoic Thought In this lesson, we will explore egoic thought  and how it manufactures crisis, confusion and fear.  Eckhart Tolle says" Stillness is your essential nature . Stillness is the inner space of awareness . You are that awareness disguised as a person ".  Let's see if we can uncover that awareness of stillness and begin to live from it day by day. The result is living in freedom , without self-imposed limitations. 

Mid-life crises have a bad rap.

We're back with another listener AMA, and this one might be our most heartfelt yet. I sit down with my wife, Alyson Charles Storey, and our conversation weaves through themes of grief, forgiveness, and family legacy as I share the story of honoring my father's life and final wishes. From the surreal experience of his memorial to an unexpected pilgrimage up Snowmass Mountain to spread his ashes, I open up about the lessons loss has taught me: how relationships shift, why priorities sharpen, and what it really means to let go with grace.Along the way, Alyson brings her shamanic perspective to the conversation, offering insight on how to hold both the pain and the beauty of these moments without bypassing the deeper truths they carry.Thank you to everyone who submitted a question—your curiosity and courage continue to shape these conversations. We're honored to walk beside you in both the challenges and the celebrations of being fully alive.

St. Isaac the Syrian leads us into a subtle yet decisive truth about the spiritual life: to taste of God rightly, one must be weaned from the world—not only from its visible distractions and passions, but also from the premature grasping of spiritual visions and insights. Renunciation, for Isaac, is not merely the abandonment of external goods; it is the letting go of everything that agitates, excites, or exceeds the soul's present capacity. Like a child given honey before it can digest it, the soul that seeks lofty knowledge or noetic vision without purification risks sickness and collapse. This is why Isaac insists that silence and stillness are the true companions of renunciation. The soul must be emptied and simplified, freed from the clutter of worldly images, memories, and concerns. Only then can she begin to perceive, not in phantasy, but in the true theoria that God bestows upon the humble and pure of heart. Silence, for Isaac, is the protection of this delicate work. It guards the soul from shameless curiosity about mysteries that surpass her strength, and it teaches her to receive revelation with reverence, not presumption. Stillness, likewise, is the arena where renunciation becomes fruitful. By cutting off the “exterior war” of the senses—sight, hearing, chatter, possessions—the soul is fortified against the subtler inner warfare of thoughts. In this solitude, prayer and Scripture reading form the new conversation of the heart, replacing worldly recollections with the remembrance of God. Thus renunciation is not negative but deeply positive: it creates space for mercy, for purity, for true prayer, and for the divine astonishment that halts the soul in stillness before the mysteries of God. Isaac reminds us that almsgiving and voluntary poverty open the heart to boldness before God, but stillness is the summit—where the soul is no longer divided, tossed about, or burdened, but rests in the radiant quiet of God's presence. Renunciation, then, is not escape but transfiguration. It severs us from the false sweetness of the world and teaches us to taste, in measure, the true sweetness of God. It bids us to be content with what is given, to wait in silence for the moment when grace itself will lift us beyond our measure, and to remain always in the humility by which mysteries are revealed. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:05:39 Bob Čihák, AZ: Our current book is “The Ascetical Homilies of Saint Isaac the Syrian, revised 2nd Edition” 2011, published by Holy Transfiguration Monastery, https://www.bostonmonks.com/product_info.php/products_id/635 .

In this increasingly hectic and overstimulating world, it can be so easy to suddenly feel overwhelmed, anxious and spread too thin. This meditation is designed to bring our focus back to ourselves, and find a renewed stillness within us, one that we can use to keep us calm and centred as we continue to move forward. I hope you find this useful!

Ready to break free from burnout and self-sabotage?Join The Capacity Gap Workshop, register FREE at https://rewirecapacity.com  The flight response is often misunderstood as weakness or avoidance, but it's actually a deeply wired survival strategy shaped by fear and trauma. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we uncover how the nervous system uses constant motion, through overwork, hustle, and productivity, to escape from internal sensations and emotions that once felt unsafe. You'll learn how fear disguises itself as discipline, why rest feels threatening to high performers, and how chronic busyness creates a false sense of safety while eroding health and connection. From neuroscience to personal stories, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof explain the mechanisms of the flight response, its roots in trauma, and the protective role it sometimes plays. Most importantly, we share practical somatic tools to slow down, regulate the nervous system, and reclaim fear as a signal for presence and alignment, not something to outrun. 00:00 – Running from internal sensations, not others 00:24 – Busyness and productivity as avoidance 00:43 – Slowing down in somatic therapy 01:33 – Hustler identity and chronic overdoing 02:25 – Flight tied to fear of stillness 03:11 – Welcome to Trauma Rewired 04:15 – Flight patterns: urgency, overscheduling, avoidance 05:13 – When flight signals misalignment 07:46 – Flight as protection against overstimulation 09:31 – Brain-body mechanics of flight 11:50 – Fear bypassed as weakness 13:10 – Trauma and structural reinforcement of flight 15:36 – Movement replacing emotion 17:35 – Somatic healing requires slowing down 18:32 – Signs of inward-directed flight 19:55 – Disconnection from body cues (hunger, fatigue) 23:39 – Somatic regulation steps and tools 25:53 – Fear as primal protective signal 28:12 – Regulation tools to create space between sensation and action 31:24 – Stillness and vulnerability as safety 32:16 – Somatic release of fear: frozen shoulder story 33:28 – Reclaiming emotions as growth tools 34:36 – Fear, intuition, and aligned action Topics Discussed in This Episode: The difference between healthy fear and chronic flight How trauma conditions the nervous system to stay in motion The neuroscience of the flight response: amygdala, hypothalamus, PAG, prefrontal cortex Why productivity and hustle are often survival strategies Signs of chronic flight in relationships and work The hidden cost of avoiding emotions through busyness Somatic tools for slowing down and processing fear Rewiring chronic flight through neuroplasticity and body-based healing The role of cultural and systemic trauma in reinforcing flight How to reclaim fear as a clarifying signal for safety and presence

B"H There's something about sitting by calm waters that quiets the soul. ✨ In Ontario this summer, I was reminded how a still lake can feel like Shabbos itself, inviting us to slow down, breathe deeply, and connect with Hashem's presence in the gentle sounds and reflections of the water.

In the noise and urgency of modern education, Catholic teachers and leaders are constantly pulled in a thousand directions. Yet at the heart of our vocation lies a deeper call: to encounter Christ in stillness and to lead from a place of inner peace.In this episode, global Catholic speaker Jonathan Doyle shares why silence is not an escape but a vital source of strength for every Catholic educator. Drawing on scripture, tradition, and personal experience, Jonathan explores how stillness helps teachers:Reconnect with God in the midst of daily challengesCultivate clarity, wisdom, and resilience as leadersModel peace and presence to students and colleaguesBuild a culture of prayer and reflection within their school communityWhether you are in the classroom, in leadership, or discerning your next step in Catholic education, this episode will encourage you to rediscover silence as a powerful gift that renews your vocation.Find out about booking Jonathan to come and speak at your school or eventhttps://jonathandoyle.co/Book a coaching call with me right now - For Principal's and Leaders in Catholic Educationhttps://jonathandoyle.co/Come and join Jonathan for his daily Youtube videos:https://www.youtube.com/@onecatholicteacher/videosFind Jonathan on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/jdoylespeaks/

This episode isn't about rare disease, advocacy, or biotech—at least not directly. It's different. It's slower. It's personal.I recorded this audio piece on my summer abroad in Switzerland and Italy, where I spent time hiking, wandering, and rethinking what leadership means when you're not in control, but still choosing how to move.It's part travel log, part inner documentary. I talk about stillness, curiosity, presence, and how stepping away from my usual roles helped me return to them with more clarity.If you've been feeling burnt out, stuck, or unsure how to lead when you don't have answers—this one's for you.

Finalist, Award for Excellence in the Study of Religion, Constructive-Reflective Studies, given by the American Academy of ReligionExplores how Black Buddhist Teachers and Practitioners interpret Western Buddhism in unique spiritual and communal waysIn Black Buddhists and the Black Radical Tradition: The Practice of Stillness in the Movement for Liberation (NYU Press, 2022), Rima Vesely-Flad examines the distinctive features of Black-identifying Buddhist practitioners, arguing that Black Buddhists interpret Buddhist teachings in ways that are congruent with Black radical thought. Indeed, the volume makes the case that given their experiences with racism—both in the larger society and also within largely white-oriented Buddhist organizations—Black cultural frameworks are necessary for illuminating the Buddha's wisdom.Drawing on interviews with forty Black Buddhist teachers and practitioners, Vesely-Flad argues that Buddhist teachings, through their focus on healing intergenerational trauma, provide a vitally important foundation for achieving Black liberation. She shows that Buddhist teachings as practiced by Black Americans emphasize different aspects of the religion than do those in white convert Buddhist communities, focusing more on devotional practices to ancestors and community uplift.The book includes discussions of the Black Power movement, the Black feminist movement, and the Black prophetic tradition. It also offers a nuanced discussion of how the Black body, which has historically been reviled, is claimed as a vehicle for liberation. In so doing, the book explores how the experiences of non-binary, gender non-conforming, and transgender practitioners of African descent are validated within the tradition. The book also uplifts the voices of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and queer Black Buddhists. This unique volume shows the importance of Black Buddhist teachers' insights into Buddhist wisdom, and how they align Buddhism with Black radical teachings, helping to pull Buddhism away from dominant white cultural norms.

Indeed, the volume makes the case that given their experiences with racism—both in the larger society and also within largely white-oriented Buddhist organizations—Black cultural frameworks are necessary for illuminating the Buddha's wisdom.Drawing on interviews with forty Black Buddhist teachers and practitioners, Vesely-Flad argues that Buddhist teachings, through their focus on healing intergenerational trauma, provide a vitally important foundation for achieving Black liberation. She shows that Buddhist teachings as practiced by Black Americans emphasize different aspects of the religion than do those in white convert Buddhist communities, focusing more on devotional practices to ancestors and community uplift.The book includes discussions of the Black Power movement, the Black feminist movement, and the Black prophetic tradition. It also offers a nuanced discussion of how the Black body, which has historically been reviled, is claimed as a vehicle for liberation. In so doing, the book explores how the experiences of non-binary, gender non-conforming, and transgender practitioners of African descent are validated within the tradition. The book also uplifts the voices of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and queer Black Buddhists. This unique volume shows the importance of Black Buddhist teachers' insights into Buddhist wisdom, and how they align Buddhism with Black radical teachings, helping to pull Buddhism away from dominant white cultural norms.

Eckhart takes listeners through two live meditations about the stillness within. He says finding the transcendent dimension is the only thing that will satisfy us. He believes it's not something we can achieve, it's something we discover in the here and now. Eckhart explains why becoming aware of ourselves in stillness is the essence of all identity.

In this episode, I interview Pia Mailhot-Leichter. Pia is a creative partner, published author, certified coach, and entrepreneur. Her path has been anything but ordinary: a recovering nomad, she's reported as a journalist in Sri Lanka, graduated summa cum laude from NYU, and worked as an award-winning creative director for some of the biggest brands in the world. Now, as the founder of Kollektiv Studio, she's uniquely positioned to co-create wild visions and ventures. She recently published Welcome to the Creative Club, a book that challenges everything people thought they knew about creativity. Praised by Google's Global Head of Creative & Innovation as "life-changing" and by iconic fashion designer Betsey Johnson as "a wild ride," this part-memoir, part-guide invites readers to make life their biggest art project and reclaim their creative power.Get a copy of her book: On Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Welcome-Creative-Club-Biggest-Project/dp/B0DPJ8L4NM/ref=sr_1_1On Bookshop.org: https://bookshop.org/p/books/welcome-to-the-creative-club-make-life-your-biggest-art-project-pia-mailhot-leichter/22087658And the audiobook: https://www.audible.com/pd/Welcome-to-the-Creative-Club-Audiobook/B0F6VZCWT4 Connect on social: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pialeichter/https://www.instagram.com/pia.leichter/https://substack.com/@pialeichter   More about her work: https://kollektiv.studio/Book a chemistry call: https://calendly.com/kollektivstudio/coaching-exploration-callConnect through weekly field notes: https://kollektiv.studio/newsletter Disclaimer: This podcast is intended for entertainment and informational purposes only and does not substitute individual psychological advice. *This is an affiliate link.

In a world that never slows down, stillness is often misunderstood. We've been trained to believe that the more we hustle, the more successful we'll be. But real strength isn't always about speed. Sometimes, the most powerful move is to pause.This episode of the Mindset Debrief explores why stillness is not weakness, it is mastery. When life feels chaotic, the ability to calm your internal world becomes a competitive edge. We unpack the myth that motion equals progress, and instead highlight how grounded presence, controlled emotion, and intentional decision-making become game-changing assets.Through practical examples and direct reflection, we'll break down how stillness is developed, how it shows up in high-pressure situations, and why leaders who embody calm earn trust without demanding it. You'll learn simple daily practices that cultivate emotional discipline and clarity of thought, tools that prepare you not just for personal peace but for professional influence.If you want to grow into a more resilient, self-led version of yourself, this conversation is your invitation. Stillness doesn't come after the chaos clears. It is the practice that prepares you for it.Share this episode with someone who could benefit from the information.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:IG: WEBSITE: LinkedIn: SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:SPONSORS:GRND CollectiveGet 15% off your purchaseLink: https://thegrndcollective.com/Promo Code: TRANSITION15

For women in midlife especially in perimenopause neither of those approaches alone is enough. In fact, they can actually make you feel worse. What we actually need is a balanced approach that honors our changing bodies, busy lives, and deep desire for both vitality and peace.

“God doesn't talk to me.” “I can't hear God's voice.” “I don't know what God sounds like.” Hearing from God is pivotal to the life of a Christian. Not only do we seek guidance from His Word, but we also ask Him questions about which path to take, what to do, and how He wants us to behave. We want insight into situations we find ourselves in. And we long to receive His words of love and comfort, especially when life around us is full of chaos and heartache. Yet there are times when we struggle to hear His voice, when it seems that He is silent. Why is that? I won't be able to address any and every situation that might make it harder to hear from God—at least, not all in this episode. But there is one issue in particular that I've noticed in my own life, and I bet you can recognize it in yours, too. And if we truly want to hear from God, it's something that we're going to have to address. So what is it? What can prevent us from hearing from God? You don't expect to. Let's take a few minutes and unpack this idea together.

In this soul-nourishing solo episode, we explore the powerful symbolism and life-changing wisdom behind the concept of a “Clear Sky.” When the skies of our inner world are clouded by fear, doubt, and overwhelm, it becomes difficult to see our own brilliance—our “stars.” But clarity reveals what's always been there.Through real-life reflections, personal stories, and deep soul questions, this episode invites you to clear the noise, make space for peace, and remember who you truly are.Let's uncover the purpose of clear skies in our personal growth and how even the darkest nights can still hold the brightest stars.
