What would have a 4 year old kicked out of dance school? How might a labyrinth support health and healing in a person with a significant health concern? How might the earth teach us about our bodies? All of these inquiries and more are explored through this intimate conversation with Donna Dimino. Donna offers Living Body Awareness Programs and understands wellness as a process of change and growth toward greater health, vitality, and freedom.

Getting out of the way for the healing to take place is often easier said than done. Listen to this guided meditation to find support in grounding, noticing, relaxing, releasing tension, letting go, feeling held, breathing, allowing thoughts to move on, having courage, welcoming grace, and honoring yourself. Truly, these are all fundamental aspects of healing. Let go into the healing that is already and always happening.

My dear friend and colleague, Nicki Koethner, MA, MFT, shares her professional wisdom with us about healing narcissism. She is a Somatic Expressive Arts Psychotherapist and a delightful soul offering her amazingly compassionate perspective to all of us. Together, we explore what narcissism is, how the narcissistic wound happens, how narcissism affects others' lives, how these tendencies get passed down through family legacy, and - most importantly - how healing happens! We move from the personal to the global with a look at culture, the role of nature, and how the arts support this healing process.

Nicki is a marriage and family therapist, educator, consultant and multi-media artist who specializes in transforming trauma into empowerment. She has a private practice in Berkeley, California where she sees clients in person as well as online in both English and German. She is adjunct faculty at Sofia University and the California Institute Of Integral Studies. She was a past ECC and board advisor to the International Expressive Arts Therapy Association. Nicki also facilitates healing ceremonies, workshops and rituals.

Healing from a toxic relationship, Christina Sommers discovers the superpowers of empathy and being a highly sensitive person. Together, we discover and affirm how lovable she is... as are we all. Christina Sommers is the host of the Loving Your Life Again podcast, a single mom to a 19 year old daughter, and she loves the outdoors. Christina is passionate about helping women find joy in the journey back to loving their lives again. After leaving a 10 year toxic marriage (19 year relationship) to a drug addict with narcissistic tendencies, she began her healing journey. She learned how lonely this journey can be and wants to bring awareness to others who are experiencing toxic relationships. Christina has a gift of guiding women into the best decisions for themselves; and then supporting them on the healing journey back into peace and joy. Christina is creating a community of like minded women, offering tips, tricks and tools to heal the body, mind and spirit. I invite you to enjoy her wisdom, humor, and experience as she openly explores what she has been through in recent time.

This healing conversation describes moments of domestic violence. Please reach out for help if you need support in a domestic violence situation.

What do cinnamon, neuroscience, and sugar all have in common?! When used (or not used) in a unique way for you to support your own flourishing, they all are part of eudaemonia. Eudaemonia is an old word from Aristotle meaning wellness for your highest good. These are three topics explored in this fun loving and honest conversation with Emily Geizer, Health Coach. Emily is a life and wellness coach for women who are exhausted and juggling too many balls. She takes a food first approach to wellness, while incorporating other aspects of healthy living, rewiring thoughts and beliefs, and nervous system regulation. I reveal some things about my life in this episode, as does she. Key words: Stinky Feet!!!

Listen in to find out what is growing in my garden and to hear the latest Stillwater guided meditation. Through meditative guidance, we breathe into REST, PRESENCE, and COMPOSURE.

Helpful Reminders:

~ Practice being grateful for you!

~ There is no right or wrong in presence.

~ Let the sparkly light of your true self shine.

~ Composure is integrity with one's true self.
