    Highlights:
    - The three prongs/pillars of change: focus, belief, and chemistry.

  • Ep. 18 - "Barrier Beliefs" (Conscious Communications P1)
    In this episode, I start my conversations with Mary Shores, author of the book “Conscious Communications” -- specifically about how our words to ourselves impact our lives and her use of the term “barrier beliefs.”
    Highlights:
    - We often protect ourselves with self-limiting beliefs.
    - Action is greater than belief.
    - Small changes can make a big difference.

  • Ep. 17 - "Your Brain is More than your Mind" (Mind-Body, wrap-up)
    In this episode, I highlight a few ideas that came up in my conversation with Selena, and emphasize the importance of using more of your brain to complete desired tasks.
    Highlights:
    - Why does any of this matter? There are real, biological implications here.
    - Your brain is more than your thinking bits.
    - You need to become aware enough to break the psychosomatic loop.

  • Ep. 16 - "Helpful Moves" (Mind-Body Connection, Part 3)
    In this episode, I conclude my conversation with Selena Reames, a body worker and occupational therapist, discussing the value of movement and wrapping up with our major takeaways.
    Highlights:
    - Movement doesn’t have to be complicated; just consciously moving our bodies can help process and release what’s in our bodies.
    - If nothing else, movement helps us shift our awareness.
    - Our bodies need movement; not honoring that will cause a host of problems. Honoring that will cause a host of benefits.

  • Ep. 15 - "Words on Paper" (Mind-Body Connection, Part 2)
    In this episode, I continue my conversation with Selena Reames, a body worker and occupational therapist, discussing the value of journaling.
    Highlights:
    - Journaling doesn’t have to be complicated; it can be as simple as a brain dump.
    - Writing increases awareness at all levels; creativity relieves stress.
    - Start where you are; there is no perfect, it’s just about taking some action.

  • Ep. 14 - "Importance of Breath" (Mind-Body Connection, Part 1)
    In this episode, I begin my conversation with Selena Reames, a body worker and occupational therapist, discussing the importance of breath and what the mind-body connection even is.
    Highlights:
    - “Mind-body” refers to expanding outside of simple rational experience, and that our selves are more than just our brains.
    - If you want to know what something is doing for you, stop doing it.
    - You can always come back to your breath.

  • Ep. 13 - "What's Next" (Wrongness of Death, Part 5)
    * Thanks to my recent patrons, Erin and John! *
    In this episode, I finish my conversation with my friend, Jenny, who lost both her parents within two years. We discuss the transformation that can happen between people near death and how society presently deals with death and grieving.
    Highlights:
    - We don’t seem to have any clear grief practices in our culture.
    - Release of grief can be transformative.
    - How we live is often how we die, and yet, death and dying can change so much.
