195: Therapeutic Mindfulness with Ruth Fearnow
In today's episode, I'm joined by therapist, author, and speaker Ruth Fearnow to explore the concept of therapeutic mindfulness.

She eloquently explains the pitfalls of emotional avoidance, emphasizing the potential long-term harm it can inflict on daily choices. Ruth guides us through cultivating non-judgmental focused attention and introduces the power of "allowing phrases" to help us use mindfulness as a means of sitting with, rather than evading, our emotions. Join us for a profound exploration of therapeutic mindfulness and its transformative potential.

193: Postcards to the Universe with Melisa Caprio - An Excerpt from My Appearance
Today I’m doing something a little different on the show. A few weeks ago, I was a guest on an amazing radio show called Postcards to the Universe with Melisa Caprio and she was kind enough to share the recording with me. It’s much too long to play here, so I’ve edited together some bits of the first part where we talk about the root, sacral, solar plexus, and heart chakras, how they affect our day-to-day lives, our physical and emotional well-being, play a part in the manifesting and creation process, and why imbalances can appear.

184: Freeing Ourselves from Internalized Patriarchy and Capitalistic Ideology - An Interview with Laura Hartley
What does "enough" feel like? If our current systems had their way, we'd never find out. But my guest today, Laura Hartley, is here to change that. Laura offers insight into how we've internalized the capitalistic and patriarchal myths that we are not enough, that our problems are all our fault, and that we simply have to accept the world we live in. If you've ever thought that there has to be a better way, a way for the world to be that works well for all people rather than just the privileged few, then this is the conversation for you!

Heart Chakra Opener: Midweek Mindfulness #9
This week we'll work on opening our heart chakras to allow energy to flow more freely. A blocked or stagnant heart chakra can cause us to feel off, and inhibit our ability to give and receive love in the way we want and need. There will be a little bit of physical movement to take advantage of how our physical bodies are inseperable from our more subtle bodies - emotional, mental, spiritual, astral.

Stress Relieving Solar Plexus Breath: Midweek Mindfulness #8
It's one of my favorite stress relieving breaths this week - nadi shoshana, or alternate nostril breath. I use this one almost daily for general stress relief and then extra in times of anxiety or stress. It calms and balances your physical body and your energy body, giving your nervous system a chance to relax and heal.
Here are the episodes I mention about stress responses:

181: Spiritual Bypassing
Spiritual bypassing is the idea that we can use our spiritual practices to avoid doing the hard work of addressing earthly concerns. It can also mean putting on a happy, "good vibes only" persona so that we don't have to experience our hard, painful emotions. It's normal to want to feel better right away, but true growth and self-care only comes from honestly addressing our reality. We'll also talk about the community responsibility we have to one another and why we can't spiritually bypass our way out of injustice.

Today’s practice is a little interaction with your community in a positive, intentional way. Research has shown that engaging in conversations with strangers has many positive health benefits, including increased happiness, a strengthened sense of belonging, increased mental sharpness, a decreased sense of loneliness and isolation, and improved trust. I'll give you some ways to do this that can both keep you safe and have the uplifting effect we're hoping to have!

179: Chakra Energy Leaks Part 2 - Solar Plexus, Sacral, and Root Chakras
I am back this week with part two of the episode on energy leaks from your chakras. You don’t need to go back and listen to episode 178 before this one – I’ll do a quick review , but once we’re finished here, you may want to go back and listen to learn about leaks in the upper four chakras. A chakra leak can decrease our power to heal and balance ourselves. Within the chakra system, the Sanskrit word for energy is shakti, and it translates to power, capacity, strength and it means the power, capacity, and strength to do our inner work within each chakra. If we’re leaking energy out of the chakra, we won’t have enough to do what needs to be done there to be balanced. Use this episode to think about whether or not you’re letting your power in a chakra seep out of you and I’ll give you some ways to know if you are, and some ideas on how to stop those leaks if needed so you can focus your energy on healing.

Sacral Chakra Settling Breath: Midweek Mindfulness #5
This week's breathwork is a cooling breath, especially useful for settling intense emotions when you're feeling overwhelmed. It's designated a feminine breath - remember to listen to episode 170 if you're curious about that term - and will affect all of the associated chakras, particularly the sacral. Use it any time you need a moment of calm in your day.

178: Chakra Energy Leaks Part 1 – Crown, Third Eye, Throat, and Heart Chakras
Today we’re talking about energy using the definition “our power to do inner work” (a close translation of the Sanskrit word shakti) and how we might be leaking that energy from our chakras. We'll discuss the ways in which we lose energy - our power - through these centers and lose our ability to do inner work there. This is important to be know because if we leak all of our power to do this work, we lose our ability to heal ourselves. You'll learn what an energy leak looks like in each of these four chakras (Crown, Third Eye, Throat, and Heart) as well as how to stop the leaks. We'll also talk about the difference between "blocks" and "leaks," as well as how you can have both at the same time.

Root Chakra Stimulating Breath: Midweek Mindfulness #4
Today I’m sharing a breath that stimulates the root chakra. It’s a general “masculine” breath, meaning that it will stimulate all of your masculine energy chakras (more on that in Episode 170!). This breath is excellent for creating heat and energy in the body if you need a boost during the day, and for activating your Root Chakra!

177: Sexual Healing as a Spiritual Practice with Heather Shannon, Certified Sex Therapist
Today I’ve got the first in a new series I’m working on about spiritual practices that don’t always seem like spiritual practices. Every few weeks, I’ll share on a topic that can expand what we think of as spiritual practices. As the saying goes, we’re spiritual beings having a human experience - everything we do is part of our spiritual development. First up, we’ll start with sexual healing as a spiritual practice. It’s a conversation I had with sex therapist Heather Shannon, where we explore the idea that our sexuality isn't just linked to the sacral chakra, or even the heart chakra. Rather, our entire energy system is affected by our sexual health.

176: Sound Therapy and Vibrational Healing with Craig Goldberg
This week I’m bringing you an interview with a relaxation expert, Craig Goldberg. We talk about why relaxation is so important and why, even though we know that, we don’t always do it. Craig shares what's happening in our bodies, minds, and spirits when we get stressed and importantly, he shares with us his best tools for relaxation. We explore sound therapy, vibrational therapy, and how different sounds have different effects on our brains and brainwaves. Craig's company, InHarmony, creates technology assisted meditation tools to envelop your body into sound and vibrations for healing. Learn more about Craig and his meditation tools at www.iaminharmony.com and follow him on Instagram!

Cooling Breath for Anxiety: Midweek Mindfulness #2
This week’s mindfulness technique is a cooling or soothing breath. This breath, sitali pranayama, cools down the body and the mind which means it’s very good for reducing anxiety. You can use it whenever you’re feeling stressed – just a few rounds will make a big difference.

175: When Self-Love Seems Too Hard...Self-Like
Self-love can feel so complicated and out of reach. So, introducing...self-like! It's the low-key, no-committment, let's-just-see-where-this-goes version that might just allow us to pursue self-love one day. Or not. Either way is fine! Today we'll talk about what self-like could be and a few ways to see if it works for you. No stigma, no pressure, no labels. Just friends :)

174: Three Ideas for Root Chakra Grounding
It's another listener request episode! Today we’re talking about grounding, generally what we think of as a root chakra aspect. And the question was essentially “what IS grounding?” It's such a common thing to say, but rarely does anyone offer an explanation of what that means or what it might feel like or how to do it beyond "do a grounding meditation." I want to talk through these questions today and then give you some practical ideas, hopefully at least one you haven’t tried!

173: Your Third Eye Chakra Right to Be Seen
Join me as I stumble through the oft-negelcted right of the Third Eye Chakra - To Be Seen. We'll talk a little more about self-sabotage (see Episode 168 for the first exploration of this) and how that can show up in our lives when we're afraid to be our authentic selves, let people see us for who we truly are, and fear of success.

172: Shadow Work for Your Chakras
We hear about shadow work all the time and that we need to be doing it, but if my DMs are any indication, a lot of us are confused about what exactly shadow work is, who should do it, and how to do it. It can also be a little unclear how it relates to the chakras, if at all. Today's episode aims to clear it all up and give you a primer on what shadow work could look like in your life and in your healing/integration journey.

171: Psychedelics for Spiritual Experience and Healing – The Past, Present, and Future with Dr. Jahan Khamsehzadeh
In this episode, we're talking about a method of healing you night not have considered or know much about - psychedelics. Yes, these are generally illegal in the United States, but rest assured we are talking about legal use, or pre-illegal use. Dr. Jahan Khamsehzadeh is an academic, a researcher who studies psilocybin, the compound found in mushrooms and other plants that can have hallucinogenic effects. We’re talking about the history of plant use in indigenous tribes, and the impact these plant medicines may have had on the development of consciousness as we know it. We’ll also get into the current legal research that’s being done all over the world and how psychedelics are being used to treat depression, anxiety, addiction, and even PTSD. It’s a fascinating conversation, but if you don’t care to hear about these substances, then just skip over today’s episode and I’ll see you next week!

170: Feminine and Masculine Energies in Your Chakras
In the beginning, it was all energy - there was no divide, no hierarchy, and no labels. And then someone got the idea to divide types and styles of energy into feminine and masculine and it's been downhill ever since. Okay, that might be a bit dramatic, but the elevation of certain human traits over others and the assigning of general traits to individuals based on gender assumptions is not doing the world any favors. Today we'll talk about the origin of the terms, how various energy types show up, and why it's so important to balance "masculine" and "feminine" energy styles in our chakra systems. We'll break it down by chakra and discuss how the misunderstanding and misapplication of these terms is causing disharmony between us and within ourselves.

169: Spiritual Freedom with Swami Nityananda
Today I sit down with Swami Nityananda to talk about spiritual freedom – what that is, what it can mean, what it can look like – and a lot of the conversation is around being able to have inner peace, joy, and connection even when the world is falling down around you. Even when it feels like your insides are crumbling. It's an invitation to approach ourselves and others with compassion and learn how to connect light to light. We explore what the saying "We Are All One" might actually mean and how we can respect both our universal energy and individual bodies. Swami Nityanda teaches non-dual awareness, which is simply the practice of being aware that there is truly no separation between us, a philosophy that can guide us toward peace and empathy.

168: How Self-Sabotage Shows Up in Your Chakras
Today’s topic has been on my mind for a couple of months now as I find myself struggling to do the things I want to do or get done. Does that ever happen to you? You really want to do something, but you can’t find the motivation or you do things that seem to be in exact opposition to what you’re trying to do? It’s self-sabotage. In yoga, there are three types of self-sabotage and they show up in three chakras - the solar plexus, the heart, and the third eye. We'll talk about what they are, why they happen, signs you may be experiencing them, and of course, what to do to start healing.

167: Unlocking Creativity in Your Sacral, Heart, and Third Eye Chakras Through Playfuless with Alara Sage
Play isn't something we need to abandon when we grow up! However, it can be hard to imagine exactly what it looks like in a life of responsibility. Today Alara Sage guides us through the process of reawakening our innate sense of play to access bliss, joy, love, and peace while healing our nervous system and releasing stored trauma. By unlocking our creativity with play, we can open our sacral, heart, and third eye chakras to allow us to expand into our most authentic, vibrant self!

165: Types of Yoga Asana - Part Two (Restorative, Yin, Iyengar, and Kundalini)
Let's slow down the physical practice of yoga this week and talk about some alternatives to fast-paced classes. We'll cover Restorative, Yin, Iyengar, and Kundalini practices - perhaps lesser known but equally valuable! And as always, I'll remind you that physical postures are not the only way to practice the philosophy of yoga and that in all our asana classes, we're looking to incorporate the other limbs of yoga as well (the breath, meditation, etc.). This is part two of the mini-series, so if you're interested in learning more about Hatha, Ashtanga, Power, and Vinyasa yoga classes, check out episode 164.

164: Types of Yoga Asana – Part One (Hatha, Ashtanga, Power, and Vinyasa)
It's a listener request episode! I'm going to go over a few different types of yoga asana (poses or postures, a physical practice) that you might see on a yoga studio schedule or in the name of a YouTube video. I'll share what you can expect in the practice, some benefits of each, and who each type might be good for. Hopefully having this information will help you decide what kind of yoga class is right for you!
We'll also talk about how the broader philosophy of yoga isn't limited to just physical postures, what we think of in the West as "yoga." Instead, it is a life practice that anyone can participate in in a wide variety of ways!

163: Your Root Chakra Money Trauma
Let's talk about something awkward today, shall we? It's money. And I know we're not supposed to talk about it, certainly not as people interested in a spiritual path, but the fact is we do need money (or the energetic currency we call money) to survive in the physical world. Beliefs around money that get created when we're children and reinforced when we're adults can cause trauma to the Root Chakra that may be impacting you in ways you don't even realize. Today we'll start to tease out the difference between the value of a dollar and the value of a person - seems obviously, but it's definitely trickier than it appears at first glance!
