Mending Modern Magic

What is depression? How does it manifest and what are the contributing factors in being clinically depressed? This episode walks us through some of the common symptoms, external contributors, and our options as a community to choose our own antidepressants. Feeling sad and experiencing the full range of emotions is normal, but bringing awareness to the feeling of apathy and prolonged periods os sadness is the first step to pulling yourself out. If you’re feeling sad or feeling low, I hope this episode helps to cheer you up and motivates you to explore the normal and natural antidepressant options.

This episode explores the foundations of the mind & the beliefs we hold to be true that impact our daily lives. Sometimes unconsciously, we accept our beliefs as facts and forget that they can be changed and molded to better suit our emotional needs. So where do we begin? The first step is examining our core beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world. Once we call it out, all of the healing work can begin to flourish.

Dr. Patrick Keelan explores specific ways to trace your beliefs by noticing thought patterns and stopping them in their tracks: https://drpatrickkeelan.com/addictions/identify-negative-core-beliefs/#:~:text=The%20best%20way%20to%20determine,core%20belief%20may%20be%20operating.

This episode dives into the different ways that we can get in touch with our inner children. One of the first ways to take care of our inner children is to reflect on our caregiving and our attachment styles.

Sending you healing energy and hoping these insights provide loving care.

This episode describes the difference between ego and intuition and how they relate to one another. Our bodies speak to us in many ways, all with fundamental reasoning. However, there is always room to heal and improve our inner dialogue so that our experiences and feelings are in our highest and best. This podcast provides insight on how you can be more gentle with yourself so that your intuition feels safe and confident in speaking up. It also provides tools and insight to recognize when your ego has stepped out of line. Hoping the episode brings peace and balance into your self-reflection.

Disclaimer: I say sh*t a few times, promised I'd put a warning in the description!

This episode guides us through what the empathic spectrum is. It starts with the narcissist, then moves up a level to loving empathetic people, then highly sensitive people, and finally the empath. I walk through each of these levels and how bringing awareness to our place on the spectrum can provide us with tools and resources to sustain our energy.

As promised, a great quiz to determine if you are a highly sensitive person can be found here: https://hsperson.com/test/highly-sensitive-test/.

I also discuss energy vampires and methods that we can practice to protect our energy. As always, if you have any questions or comments you can find me on Instagram @mending_modern_magic.

This podcast aims to explore self-care, self-love, mental health, being intuitive in a modern world, and healing practices to navigate this space.

I walk through my introduction to tarot, fear & anxiety, new world coping mechanisms, and tarot's relationship with spirituality and history. If you're curious about tarot or want to hear words of encouragement around staying strong in 2020, give this episode a listen.
