Let's go outdoors (if possible) to ground ourselves in nature for an exercise that targets the vagus nerve. Hear the rainy forest and ravens behind my studio as you activate the vagus nerve pathway in this grounding vagal exercise that promotes both safety and connection.

March 24, 2025 Monday Motivation: Grassroots Resistance
Mondays are now Monday Motivation. What?!
The podcast is reorganizing a bit, while "being the same thing." On Mondays I will share a message to help stay motivated to fight the good fight.
Wednesday will offer an episode recorded in nature to help ground you. And Friday will offer an opportunity to reflect to help you reconnect with reality.
So, today for Monday Motivation, we explore the space between recognition of a problem, and action. That space is where many of us might find ourselves today.

March 17, 2025 Core values exercise, and when we feel alone in the struggle
This episode guides you through a meditative exercise that's focused on identifying core values as an anchor during overwhelming times. This week's focus is on overwhelming news.
Then, Jen discusses how modern systems deliberately create isolation. We discuss that isolation is structural rather than a personal failing, and that this is itself an act of resistance.
