Join me, Krystal Jakosky, for this enlightening episode of the Breathe In, Breathe Out podcast where we delve into the unusual concept of “sharing to be selfish”. As a caregiver who went through a rough patch, I share real life stories about how sharing our time, energy, and even struggles can bring about a beautiful selfishness that fuels our souls. In this episode, I discuss my experiences with meditation, coping with the challenges of caregiving, volunteer work and how cultivating our own self-worth can evoke an influential ripple effect. This episode encourages listeners to take up "Self-Care," challenging societal norms and embracing the concept of “sharing to be selfish,” might just lead you to a happier and more fulfilling life. You don't want to miss it!

123: Sharing to be Selfish

Breathe In, Breathe Out is a weekly mindfulness and meditation podcast hosted by yours truly, Krystal Jakosky. Each week, we'll release a brand new lesson or meditation focused on helping you navigate your life by giving YOU the tools to become your own healer. 

Through the topics we cover and the meditations we experience, we'll journey towards self-acceptance and ownership. Our meditations will cover a range of topics - from building your self-esteem and owning who you are to uncovering some of those not-so-pretty parts within us that hold us back from being our truest selves. 

Together we can change the world by embracing ourselves, past, future, and most importantly, the present. We can't promise it'll be easy, but we can promise it'll be worth it. 

Welcome to Breathe In, Breathe Out.

Don't you just love the shifting seasons? In this video I share my deep love for the shifting seasons and how we can learn from the natural ebbs and flows of life. Tune in as I discuss the joys of autumn, the introspective nature of winter, and how we can use this time to truly rejuvenate ourselves. But, it's not all just cozy walks and crunchy leaves, we talk about the pressure of holiday expectations. I'll be providing practical tips on how to tune into your own heart, master the powerful word 'no', and deal with the social stress of the holiday season. I also share my thought-provoking insights drawn from nature, like the impactful story of the Californian redwoods. Remember, this season isn't just about everyone else - it's about you too. Let's explore together how we can truly honor ourselves during this time of the year.

137: Embracing the Oracle: Tuning into Your Inner World

Learn how to reframe holiday expectations to better accommodate our mental health. I implores us to take a step back from the usual holiday rush and to instead focus on self-care and setting healthy boundaries. I encourage you to take a pause and own their part in creating a holiday season that nourishes them both physically and emotionally. Join us as we explore the balance between celebrating with loved ones and taking care of one's own needs. If you're feeling stressed this holiday season, this podcast might just be the breath of fresh air you need. Tune in and let's breathe together.

Tune into this weeks episode of Breathe In, Breathe Out, where we highlight the complex relationship between grief and acceptance.

By doing so, it's possible to reach moments of acceptance and achieve better emotional wellbeing.

135: The Relationship Between Grief and Acceptance

Lastly, I explore the tricks of perception that often conceal our true selves. By the end, listeners will grasp the art of shedding obstinate patterns and dancing to the rhythm of their hearts. Howling at the moon might even seem like a great idea! The episode concludes with the anticipation of the growth and understanding to come from an open heart and lively spirit.
