This week we'd like to encourage everyone to allow themselves some grace and self-care during the upcoming holiday season. No matter your religious background or your family situation, these cold winter weeks can be very stressful for everyone for a variety of reasons and it's important to take a step back and give yourself a break whenever possible and in whatever way you can.

So to follow our own advice, we are taking a moment to rejuvenate ourselves and make plans for all the amazing shows we have coming up for you in the new year. So, today in place of a new episode we are re-airing one of our favorite episodes from our exclusive Patreon archive. This episode is Rachel's chat from 2019 with Matthew Remski.

Matthew is the co-host of the popular Conspirituality podcast and is a cult survivor and researcher. His 2019 book, Practice and All is Coming: Abuse, Cult Dynamics and Healing in Yoga and Beyond, is the first systematic analysis of pervasive cultism in the modern yoga world. He researches and writes on abuse in spiritual movements here, as well as for publications like GEN by Medium and The Walrus. His current research is pivoting to look at cultic dynamics in conspirituality and eco-justice movements. His upcoming book entitled Conspirituality: How New Age Conspiracy Theories Became a Health Threat is available for pre-order now at:
