191: How To Use Morning Routines To Boost Your Mood
My mornings before everyone in the house is up are my favorite. I work from home in my office at home so I am aware I do have it easier to do all of these and not have to rush to shower to head out the door to an office building.
I think creating a morning routine to help boost our mood can set a positive tone for the entire day.
I share ways to help reduce stress and increase positive emotions and motivation.

190: How To Unlearn Toxic Diet Culture From The 90’s To Set Ourselves and Our Kids Up For Success
Growing up in the 90s, many of us were unwittingly steeped in a toxic diet culture. From ultra-skinny models gracing the covers of magazines to the relentless promotion of fad diets, hello cabbage soup, Atkins, Slim Fast, etc. The message was clear; thinner is better, and self-worth is tied to appearance. Fast forward to today, and we're now navigating a journey towards self-love and improved body image, unlearning the damaging beliefs of our youth and trying to set up our daughters (and sons) for a more positive and loving body image towards oneself.
Here are some of my favorite accounts to follow on Social Media that I talk about in this episode - Allison Marketti, Sadie Nardini, Ashley Turner, Lauren Cadilac ( feelgooddietitian), Same Previte (find.food.freedom), Alex Light (alexlight_Idn), Victoria Browne, Callie Gullickson, Dana Mercer Ricci, Erin from rawbeautytalks, Sarah Nicole Landry (thebirdspapaya), Kylie Kelce (kykelce), Abby Langer (langernutrition) These accounts are very inclusive for everyone and very body positive. In this episode:
- Self-Compassion
- How to Practice self-compassion.
- Speak to yourself with kindness and recognize that self-worth isn't tied to physical appearance.
- I use a few affirmations daily. You are worthy, You are kind, You are strong, You are beautiful Even if on some days I am not feeling it or believe it, I always say them. There is scientific research that this can really help rewire our brain and mood.
Also mentioned in this episode daily walking meditations. The ones I do are my own and Cassandra Bodzak.

Bonus: Total Solar Eclipse and Chakra Balancing Meditation
Integrating chakra balancing into the guided meditation for the total solar eclipse on April 8th can deepen the experience, aligning your energy centers with the transformative energies of the eclipse.
This meditation is designed to help you harness the transformative power of the total solar eclipse, using it as a catalyst for personal growth and the manifestation of your deepest desires. Journaling during a solar eclipse with a focus on chakra balancing offers a unique opportunity to align your inner energies with the cosmic display of balance and transition. Here are several prompts to guide your reflection and writing for each chakra, helping you to harness the energy of the solar eclipse for personal growth and balance:
Root Chakra (Muladhara) - Stability and Security: As the solar eclipse transforms the sky, reflect on the areas of your life where you seek more stability and grounding. How can you cultivate a sense of security within yourself?Nature Connection: The root chakra connects us to the earth. During or after the eclipse, spend time in nature. Write about how this experience helps you feel grounded and connected to the earth.
Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana) - Creativity and Pleasure: The play of light and shadow during a solar eclipse is a natural spectacle. How does this inspire your creative energies? Write about a creative project that the eclipse motivates you to start or continue. Joy and Pleasure: Reflect on what brings you joy and pleasure. How can you incorporate more of these elements into your daily life to balance your sacral chakra?
Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura) - Power and Self-esteem: The solar eclipse momentarily dims the sun's power. Reflect on a situation where you felt your personal power was diminished. How can you reclaim it?Confidence Boost: Write about achievements that make you proud. How can these boost your confidence and strengthen your solar plexus chakra?
Heart Chakra (Anahata) - Love and Compassion: During the totality of an eclipse, darkness prevails. Reflect on how you can find love and compassion in your own moments of darkness. How can you open your heart more? Forgiveness: Holding grudges can block the heart chakra. Write a letter of forgiveness (you don't have to send it) to someone or yourself. How does it feel to let go?
Throat Chakra (Vishuddha) - Communication and Truth: The eclipse's dramatic expression in the sky mirrors our need for expression. Write about ways you can more authentically express your thoughts and feelings. Listening: Communication is as much about listening as it is about speaking. Reflect on your listening skills. How can you improve them to balance your throat chakra?
Third Eye Chakra (Ajna) - Intuition and Insight: The unique energy of the solar eclipse can heighten intuition. Reflect on any intuitive insights you experience. How can you better trust your intuition? Vision for the Future: The eclipse marks cycles of beginnings and endings. What vision do you have for your future? How can focusing on this vision help balance your third eye chakra?
Crown Chakra (Sahasrara) - Spiritual Connection and Enlightenment: The solar eclipse is a cosmic event that can enhance feelings of spiritual connection. Write about your sense of connection to the universe and how it relates to your spirituality. Mindfulness and Meditation: Reflect on your meditation or mindfulness practice. How does it help you feel connected to your higher self and the universe?

189: Willing To Be Willing to Allow In The Miracles With Victoria Mann
188: Remember Check Your Gas Tank and Tire Pressure
In this solo episode Nikki talks about a morning recently when nothing seemed to go right and made her realize sometimes we can't spiritually bypass or emotionally bypass everything. We need to actually slow down, pause, and feel. We don't always have to meditate our emotions away or practice personal development. Sometimes we get so fixated and start thinking since we have all the tools we need to constantly be growing, learning, and sometimes we just need to feel.
Nikki talks about Ayurvedic Alchemy training she is doing and her teacher and mentor, Victoria Mann who will be on the podcast very soon! She also talks about some podcasts she has listened to recently and those hosts have been doing deep dives on other individuals in the personal development space and spiritual space calling them "grifters".
Please rate and review this episode if you enjoyed it and share it with someone else you think might need to hear this and will enjoy it!

Bonus: Meditation Stress Relief Using The Concept of The Toroidal Field
Here's a meditation script focused on stress relief using the concept of the toroidal field, a visual and energetic representation often used in meditation and energy work. From the inside, your heart emanates an extremely powerful toroidal energetic field and it has been scientifically measured to go out as far as 5 miles from your heart. This magnetic field is involved in energetic communication, a direct extension from your heart to everyone and everything. Begin by finding a comfortable and quiet place to sit or lie down. Close your eyes and take a few deep, calming breaths. Inhale slowly and deeply, filling your lungs, and then exhale gently, releasing any immediate tension.
