The Mindful Living

In this episode of The Mindful Living Podcast, host Sana sits down with Dr Jonathan Locust, founder of ConsciRise, to unpack what mindful resilience really looks like when life has already broken your body and your bandwidth. This is not about fake positivity or hustle culture. It is about how to move from quiet burnout into honest, strategic, sustainable healing.

Dr Jonathan shares how a full-body collapse, a 24 day water fast, and encounters with both supportive and exploitative healers pushed him to rebuild his life, his health, and his work from the inside out. Together, they explore the intersection of science, spirit, and strategy, and what it takes to create a nervous system friendly life in a world that moves too fast. This is a straight talking conversation for anyone who is done pretending they are fine and wants a grounded path back to themselves.

Dr Jonathan Locust  is the founder of ConsciRise, a curated community of vetted holistic practitioners focused on authenticity, integrity, and real healing outcomes.

Previously, he served as Vice President of Inclusive Excellence and a graduate professor, leading high pressure, high impact work in higher education. He holds a PhD in Theory and Social Foundations, and his background includes:

Psychometric instrument design

Behavioral analysis and predictive modeling

Legal and jury outcome prediction work

After a serious health crisis and profound burnout, Dr Jonathan undertook a 24 day water fast that radically shifted his understanding of consciousness, trust, and resilience. His later exploration of hypnosis based regression and spiritual practices helped him bridge analytical research, lived experience, and energetic healing into the ConsciRise model. Today he supports individuals and communities in building mindful resilience inside safe, ethically held healing spaces.

Mindful resilience is not grit on autopilot. It is the ability to pause, assess, and adapt rather than white knuckling your way through stress until you crash.

Resilience has components you can actually build. Balance, self confidence, adaptability, connection, empathy, and self control are measurable and trainable, not just personality traits you either have or do not.

Strategy separates resilience from self abandonment. Resilient people step back, think, and adjust their approach instead of repeatedly pushing through the same patterns and calling it strength.

Your inputs shape your resilience capacity. What you watch, read, listen to, eat, and who you spend time with either supports your nervous system or keeps you stuck in burnout.

Evaluation is a first practical step. Listing what you consume daily and asking whether it increases or drains your mental and emotional bandwidth is a simple, powerful entry point.

Progress is not linear, but it can still be net positive. Ten steps forward and two steps back still leaves you eight steps ahead. Grace is part of sustainable resilience.

Responsibility can be a stabilizer, not just pressure. For Dr Jonathan, his family, students, and community became part of the reason he refused to slide back into old patterns.

Data and spirit can coexist. His work shows that analytical rigor, experimentation, and spiritual practices like hypnosis based regression can align when you test them in real life instead of staying in theory.

This Mindful Living Podcast episode goes straight into the deep end of mental health, suicidal pain, and spiritual healing through A Course in Miracles. Host Sana sits down with author and suicide prevention advocate Susan Michel to unpack what it really means to say “I cannot take this pain anymore” and how that is different from truly wanting to die. Susan shares how unprocessed childhood abandonment, betrayal, and perfectionism fed her depression, why repressing emotions keeps us stuck, and how forgiveness becomes a non negotiable strategy for real transformation. If you care about mental health, suicide prevention, trauma healing, and practical spirituality that actually fits real life, this conversation is built for you 

Susan Michel is a two time suicide survivor, author of Surrender to Joy. From Suicide to Serenity, and founder of Trust Transformational Truth. For more than 30 years she has been a teacher and student of A Course in Miracles, integrating psychology, spirituality, and trauma healing. Today she helps people identify and process emotional pain, release old stories of “not enough,” and reconnect with their innate brilliance through forgiveness, responsibility, and inner guidance.

Suicidal thoughts often mask a deeper truth. many people do not actually want to die, they want the emotional pain to stop, and that distinction can open the door to help and healing.

Repressed emotions do not disappear. when we bury abandonment, betrayal, shame, and grief, those emotions migrate to the unconscious and start quietly running our choices, relationships, and self worth.

Society trains us to project pain outward. we blame people, systems, or circumstances, but sustainable mental health begins when we take radical responsibility for our inner experience instead of staying in victim mode.

A Course in Miracles offers a practical path, not just “positive vibes”. it focuses on identifying the blocks to love. doing the work of owning pain, not bypassing it, and using forgiveness as a daily practice of nervous system and soul level reset.

Forgiveness is strategy, not weakness. holding resentment keeps us energetically tied to the wound, while forgiving others and ourselves clears triggers, ends repeating patterns, and creates space for calm, joy, and spiritual clarity.

Simple practices help when you feel suicidal. praying or asking for help, journaling, slowing down, brief daily meditation, and reaching out to a therapist or trusted person are realistic first moves in the next 24 hours. not a five year plan.

Loved ones should not rush to fix. the most powerful support from parents, partners, or friends is to listen without judgment, believe the person, invite them to share their pain, and encourage professional mental health support.

On this episode of The Mindful Living Podcast, host Sana sits down with food systems strategist and creator of My Mindful Kitchen and The 3 Ingredient Kitchen, Janet Irizarry, to unpack a simple but uncomfortable truth. Your kitchen is a mirror.

From overstuffed fridges and endless takeout bags to mindful leftovers and shared meals, Janet shows how our food habits quietly reflect stress, values, money stories and even our hope for the planet. She breaks down her MMK Method. Mindfulness, belonging and purpose. And explains how small shifts in how we shop, cook and eat can cut food waste, save money, reduce decision fatigue and rebuild connection at home.

This is not about perfection or Pinterest ready pantries. It is about noticing what your space is saying, organizing just enough to breathe easier, and using everyday meals as a place to teach kids values, talk about climate and food insecurity, and feel like a team again. If you are tired of chaotic kitchens and guilt based eating, this conversation will help you see your kitchen as a practical tool for mental wellbeing, family culture and conscious living.

Janet Irizarry is the founder of My Mindful Kitchen and creator of The 3 Ingredient Kitchen and the MMK Method. After three decades in the restaurant world, she now helps busy families and individuals turn daily food habits into mindful, values aligned routines.

Janet teaches at the Culinary Institute of America and works at the intersection of food systems, mindset and family life. Her work focuses on reducing food waste, saving money, making kitchens easier to run and using mealtimes to build belonging, gratitude and purpose without chasing perfection.

Your kitchen is a mirror for your inner world. Clutter, chaos or constant takeout often signal stress, decision fatigue and values that are not matching everyday habits.

Janet’s MMK Method. Mindfulness, belonging and purpose. Helps you shift from autopilot cooking to intentional choices that respect food, time, money and the planet.

Basic organization of the fridge and pantry lowers stress, cuts duplicate buying and makes it easier to actually use what you already have before it expires.

Leftovers are not a failure. They are a head start for the next meal and a practical way to reduce food waste while saving real money on rising food costs.

The kitchen is a powerful classroom. Inviting kids into cooking, cleanup and planning builds responsibility, opens value based conversations and strengthens family culture.

You do not need designer containers or endless time. One small weekly shift. A leftover ritual, device free family meal or shared prep routine. Can change the energy of your kitchen.

In this episode of The Mindful Living with Yusuf, we cut through the movie myths around hypnosis and get into how it actually works in real life. Certified clinical hypnotherapist and medical hypnosis specialist Craig Meriwether, founder of Sacred Mystery Hypnotherapy and author of Past Lives Guidebook, explains what an altered state of consciousness really is, how brainwave states like alpha and theta impact healing, and why your subconscious keeps replaying old pain long after the event is over.

Craig walks us through how hypnotherapy can access the subconscious filing cabinet where anxiety, fear and unresolved trauma are stored. Then he breaks down how past life regression and life between lives work as tools for deep emotional and spiritual healing, not just spiritual entertainment. If you have tried books, habits and mindset tools yet still feel stuck in the same emotional loop, this conversation gives you a grounded way to understand why. It also shows you how repetition, practice and nervous system rewiring can shift you from rehearsing anxiety to practicing joy.

About the Guest:

Key Takeaways:

Hypnosis is not mind control. It is a natural shift into a daydream like state where the brain drops from beta into alpha and sometimes theta, something you already do when you stare out the window, watch TV or drift off before sleep.

Therapeutic hypnosis uses that state to access the subconscious, where unprocessed hurt, fear and trauma are stored like files in a cabinet. Those “files” drive anxiety, anger and overwhelm in the present.

The subconscious mind prioritizes safety, not happiness. It may cling to painful memories as a warning system. Emotional states like anxiety or fear function as “internal fire alarms” when your system detects real or imagined danger.

Because the subconscious helped store those experiences, it can also update, resolve or release them. This is fundamentally empowering. The work is about you healing yourself, not the hypnotherapist “fixing” you.

Past life regression and life between lives journeys can reveal patterns, lessons and unresolved pain that may be influencing current life challenges, especially when talk therapy and self help have hit a ceiling.

What you practice, you get better at. If you keep rehearsing anxiety or anger, your nervous system wires that in. After healing, you still need to consciously practice joy, calm and new ways of being so they become your default.

*This episode contains discussion of childhood trauma, sexual abuse, physical and emotional abuse, addiction and self medicating, poverty, systemic neglect, death and suicide. Listener discretion is advised.

Please take care of your nervous system while listening. Pause, skip sections or step away at any time if you feel overwhelmed. If you are in immediate distress or crisis, reach out to a qualified mental health professional or your local crisis helpline in your region.

In this Mindful Living Podcast episode, host Sana sits down with author Adriene Caldwell to unpack what it really takes to heal after complex trauma. This is not a glossy resilience story. It is a grounded look at how childhood abuse, addiction, poverty and systemic failure shape a nervous system, and what conscious healing looks like in real time.

Adriene shares how she moved from emotional numbness and self medicating into active, accountable healing, using tools like mindful movement, curated music, boundaries and sobriety. Together, Sana and Adriene explore the difference between coping just enough to function and choosing practices that reconnect you to your body, emotions and agency.

If you are navigating flashbacks, grief or addiction recovery, this conversation gives a clear message. You can hold the reality of what happened and still build a life that is not defined by it. Mindfulness here is not a trend. It is a way of making decisions that protect your future self.

Adriene Caldwell is the author of Unbroken, Life Outside the Lines, a memoir tracing her journey from a childhood marked by abuse, poverty, institutional failures and addiction to a life built on agency, integrity and conscious healing. She writes and speaks directly about trauma without romanticizing it, while modeling what accountable hope looks like. Adriene is the founder of the platform Unbroken Caldwell, where she shares resources, writing and reflections for trauma survivors and their allies.

Mindfulness in trauma healing is not about being calm all the time. It is about noticing triggers, choosing a different response and protecting your nervous system in small, repeatable ways.

When Adriene feels triggered, she gets out of her head and into her body through movement, walking or the gym, which helps interrupt spirals and restore a sense of safety.

Music can either ground or destabilize. Curating what you listen to is a mindful practice, especially if songs or lyrics are linked to painful memories.

The difference between conscious healing and coping is emotional engagement. Coping can mean numbness and compartmentalizing. Conscious healing requires being willing to feel, process and integrate emotions.

Long term numbness does not only block pain. It also blocks joy, connection and everyday moments of satisfaction. Protecting yourself by shutting down comes with a cost.

Adriene describes key turning points where she made hard, non negotiable decisions to stop using drugs and alcohol, change environments and hold herself accountable. Choice returned through action.

Parenthood became a catalyst for breaking generational harm. Her decision to raise her daughter differently required sobriety, boundaries and ongoing inner work, not perfection.

Real hope is not denial. It sits beside hard circumstances, honors systemic harm and focuses on the concrete decisions you can still make today.

In this episode of The Mindful Living, host Sana sits down with Human Design and Gene Keys guide Miranda Mitchell to unpack what actually happens when you stop treating your life like a personality quiz and start using it as a mirror. They talk about Human Design as a deconditioning tool, how Gene Keys moves through shadow, gift, and Siddhi, and why trying to “skip the shadow” keeps you stuck.

Miranda shares how childhood conditioning, gender expectations, and people-pleasing shape our charts in real life, and why facing your shadow is not drama. it is data. They also demystify the fear that Human Design is a “fixed box” and explore how cycles, somatics, creativity, and joy keep your growth flexible, embodied, and real.

If you are curious about Human Design, Gene Keys, self-reflection, or shadow work that does not sugar-coat anything, this Mindful Living conversation gives you a grounded, search friendly entry point for YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and beyond.

Miranda Mitchell is a Human Design, Gene Keys, astrology, and embodied leadership guide. After years of living in roles that kept her small and “peaceful,” she used Human Design and Gene Keys to decondition people-pleasing, reclaim her voice, and build a body based, creative approach to prosperity and self expression. She now supports conscious leaders, creatives, and entrepreneurs to work with their charts, not worship them, so they can step out of boxes, embrace their shadows, and create lives and businesses that actually feel alive. She also hosts The Provoking Prosperity Podcast.

Human Design is not “just another personality test.” it is a practical map of your energy that shows how you are built to speak, create, relate, and make decisions in real life.

Conditioning starts the moment you are born. By reading what is consistent versus open in your Human Design chart, you can see where family, culture, and gender roles have shaped you. then choose what stays.

Gene Keys adds a deeper layer with three frequencies. shadow, gift, Siddhi. The shadow is not a flaw, it is the signal that you are out of alignment and ready for growth.

You cannot bypass the shadow and “fast track” to the gift. Real deconditioning means facing doubt, inadequacy, and inner conflict with honesty instead of shame or spiritual bypass.

Used well, Human Design is not another box. it is a tool. Miranda blends charts, yearly cycles, somatics, and creativity so people stay flexible, not rigidly defined by one label.

True growth needs both. deep work and joy. The point is not endless processing or fake positivity, but being able to move between heaviness and play without attachment.

In this episode of The Mindful Living Podcast, host Sana sits down with Tracy Austin, founder of Elevated Talent Consulting and host of the People Strategy podcast, to unpack what mindful leadership actually looks like on job sites in the trades. Instead of treating mindfulness as a buzzword, Tracy breaks it down as clear intention, safety focused decision making, and the shift from autopilot to conscious leadership.

You will hear how she reframes productivity from outputs to outcomes, why “I don’t have time” is usually a symptom of unclear goals, and how curiosity can short circuit blame and defensiveness in tough conversations. Tracy also walks through her Tough Talk Blueprint, a practical framework that helps leaders separate facts from feelings, address real problems, and have direct conversations without defaulting to “my way or the highway”.

If you are leading crews, managing subs, or responsible for people in any high pressure environment, this conversation will help you rethink how you show up. Not softer, just smarter.

Tracy Austin is a strategic HR and leadership consultant for the trades and founder of Elevated Talent Consulting. She hosts The People Strategy Podcast and uses tools like the Predictive Index to help organizations understand natural behavioral styles, hire better, and retain key talent. Through her Tough Talk Blueprint, she equips leaders to handle difficult conversations with clarity, data, and empathy so teams can operate safely, efficiently, and with less drama.

Mindful leadership in the trades is not about slowing everything down. It is about clarity so work, safety, and communication become more efficient and less reactive.

There is a crucial difference between outputs and outcomes. Output is the task, like “recording a podcast” or “framing the door”. Outcome is the impact, like revenue, new clients, or safer job sites. Leaders need to design their calendars around outcomes, not busywork.

The common complaint “I don’t have enough time” usually means the leader is doing outputs that do not actually drive outcomes. When tasks do not lead to clear results, they should be redesigned or eliminated.

In the trades, safety is a strong reason for mindful leadership. Questioning processes, vendors, and habits keeps teams off autopilot and reduces preventable risk.

Mindfulness is not always the word you sell. Tracy often frames it as curiosity and clarity, matching the language of her audience so the ideas land instead of getting dismissed.

Curiosity gets leaders out of blame and shame. Asking “I wonder what is going on with this person or process that I do not yet know about” interrupts judgment and opens space for collaboration.

The Tough Talk Blueprint separates facts from feelings, clarifies the real impact of a problem, checks whether the right data is on the table, and then aligns on a clear request and result.

Resistance like “this will never work here” is often a self issue, not an organizational issue. Doing nothing is also a decision, and it guarantees the current problems stay.

Effective tough talks require self awareness and empathy. Leaders need to be willing to see their own blockers, listen for what is not being said, and move away from “my way or the highway” dynamics.

Real leadership in the trades is about presence and intention, not toughness for its own sake. The goal is to lead from grounded awareness instead of constant reactivity.

In this The Mindful Living Podcast episode, host Sana sits down with Rachel Brown to unpack a hard truth. if we do not deal with our own trauma, stress, and people pleasing, our children end up carrying the emotional bill. Rachel shares how chronic illness, IVF, career burnout and a full nervous system finally forced her to stop chasing the next fix and start listening to her body.

Together, they explore how generational stress, perfectionism, and “good girl” conditioning quietly shape motherhood, marriage, and identity. This is a straight talking conversation about conscious parenting, emotional regulation, boundaries with family, and why five minutes of intentional self care can shift the entire atmosphere at home.

If you are a tired parent who snaps, regrets it, and then lies awake replaying the day, this episode shows you how to start reclaiming wholeness so your kids do not have to heal from your pain later. grounded, practical, and focused on real life homes, not Instagram versions of parenting.

Rachel Brown is a UK based holistic practitioner, former pharmacist and teacher, and a mother of two boys, whose journey through chronic illness, IVF, burnout, and a breakdown led her into deep work around emotional healing and generational stress. Drawing on holistic therapies, nervous system work, and energy based practices, she now supports mothers to stop living in survival mode, release inherited emotional burdens, and model healthier patterns for their children. Through her Conscious Motherhood Collective community, Rachel helps women move from people pleasing and exhaustion to grounded self trust, emotional responsibility, and more aligned parenting.

Breaking generational stress starts with one honest adult willing to stop people pleasing, set boundaries, and model nervous system care at home.

Rachel shows how chronic illness, IVF, career burnout, and perfectionism are signals, not failures, pointing parents back to alignment and self-trust.

Emotional regulation is a daily practice. pause, breathe, name the trigger, choose a calmer response, and repair with your child instead of shutting down.

Kids do not need perfect parents. they need caregivers who apologise, share feelings in age-appropriate ways, and demonstrate emotional responsibility.

Unprocessed grief, war trauma, and scarcity beliefs can live in the body for generations. conscious parenting means doing the inner work so our kids do not carry that load.

Five minutes of non-negotiable self-care. a bath, a walk, or quiet breathing. can interrupt survival mode and open space for more grounded choices.

Community and support matter. mothers need spaces like Conscious Motherhood Collective to be witnessed, regulated, and reminded they are not alone.

When parents show up as their true selves instead of who society expects them to be, children learn that their own authenticity is safe and non-negotiable.

Rachel invites mothers who are ready to stop coping and start healing to connect here.

Mindfulness sounds peaceful in theory. Quiet rooms. Slow breathing. A still mind. But for an ADHD brain that runs on rapid fire, the traditional version feels unrealistic. In this The Mindful Living episode, host Sana cuts through the noise with ADHD educator and dopamine strategist Jorie Houlihan, who brings a ground level understanding of what presence looks like when distraction is the default.

Jorie Houlihan is a coach, speaker, podcast host, and advocate for ADHD awareness. Diagnosed at 49 after decades of internal chaos, she now teaches dopamine informed systems, sensory based mindfulness, emotional regulation strategies, and ADHD friendly executive functioning tools. She is the host of ADHD and? with Jorie Houlihan.

Mindfulness for ADHD is not about shutting the brain down. The mind is wired to think, and wandering thoughts are not failure.

Sensory grounding techniques like listening to birds, feeling textures, smelling coffee, or walking meditation help the ADHD brain stay present without forcing stillness.

ADHD challenges such as time blindness, emotional reactivity, and overstimulation make traditional meditation practices feel inaccessible, so practices must be redesigned for neurodivergent wiring.

Oversimplifying steps is not condescending for ADHD. It reduces overwhelm and builds consistent follow through by breaking tasks into micro-actions.

Habit stacking, such as pairing deep breathing with a morning coffee routine, increases success because it attaches mindfulness to something the brain already expects.

Flexibility matters more than rigid consistency. Missing a day is not failure. The ADHD brain responds better to adaptive integration than strict discipline.

Music can act as a mindfulness tool because dopamine rich songs anchor attention and regulate mood.

Picking one mindfulness strategy at a time prevents burnout. ADHD brains tend to overdo everything at once, which leads to abandoning practices entirely.

Curiosity, not judgment, is the most effective emotional lens for managing irritability, overstimulation, or internal chaos.

Mindfulness becomes effective when it supports joy, not when it mimics a neurotypical model.

In this episode of The Mindful Living Podcast, host Sana sits down with Melissa Deally, integrative mind body health practitioner, NLP trainer and Timeline Therapy trainer, to break down how our unconscious mind quietly drives our emotional patterns, anxiety and even dis-ease in the body. They unpack what Timeline Therapy actually is, how it integrates with mindfulness, and why endlessly retelling your trauma story is not the only path to healing.

Melissa explains the link between the conscious mind, the unconscious mind and the nervous system, using clear analogies like pearl necklaces and movie screens so listeners can actually apply this in real life. You will hear how stored anger, sadness and limiting decisions like "I am not enough" keep the mental fan spinning at full speed, and how Timeline Therapy slows that fan so your system can finally process, release and reset.

If you are curious about trauma informed healing that is practical, efficient and does not require rehashing every painful memory on repeat, this conversation gives you a straight talking roadmap that works across cultures and time zones 

Melissa Deally is an integrative mind body health practitioner, trainer of NLP and Timeline Therapy, and a hypnotherapist. She specializes in working with the unconscious mind to release stored emotions, trauma and limiting beliefs so people can move from anxiety and overwhelm into clarity and agency. Melissa is the founder of Amplify Impact Academy, runs the Meet Your Unconscious Mind workshop series, and hosts the podcasts Clear the Screenand Don't Wait for Your Wake Up Call.

Timeline Therapy integrates conscious, unconscious and superconscious levels of mind so you can release stored emotions without endlessly retelling your trauma story.

The unconscious mind stores every memory plus the emotional charge. Once you extract the learning, the body can safely release anger, sadness, fear, guilt and shame that drive anxiety and dis-ease.

Emotions are data, not defects. Society teaches us to stuff feelings down, which overloads the nervous system and eventually shows up as physical symptoms and patterns of burnout.

Timeline Therapy goes to the root cause of an emotion in its gestalt, like the end bead on a pearl necklace. When the root is released, the entire chain of past emotional events loses its charge.

Limiting decisions such as “I am unworthy, not good enough, powerless or unlovable” are identified and cleared, then replaced with more accurate internal beliefs using hypnotherapy.

Anxiety is reframed as a signal of misdirected focus. Using the Clear the Screen method, clients shift from the “horror movie” version of the future to a “love story” version, reducing anxiety around interviews, exams and public speaking.

Mindfulness and Timeline Therapy are complementary. Mindfulness anchors you in the present, while Timeline Therapy strategically visits the past and future to clear what no longer serves you.
