Thrive with Cate Stillman Podcast

Kate O’Donnell, author of the new, yet to be released cookbook, Everyday Ayurveda Cooking for a Calm, Clear Mind talks with me about the three gunas: sattva, rajas and tamas, in relation to who we are on this planet and our bigger life goals. We dive deep into the patterns of Ayurveda, the food we choose to nourish ourselves with, and the connections between human beings and the planet. We talk about health evolution, the expansiveness of our minds and bodies, the process of self nourishment and how we can connect with seeds, plants and the earth. When we connect with the foods that we eat, we can awaken our own psyches and pacify our monkey minds. In this way we can learn how to nourish ourselves properly and fully, in order to become clear in mind and body and uplevel our lives. Tune in to this expansive episode for some sustaining and juicy conversation on one of the most important aspects of our lives and something that we all need and love: food.

On today’s show I talk with Daniel Bastacky about Ayurveda and Sound Therapy. Daniel works with sound bowls and other instruments of sound to relax, heal, and balance people on physical, mental and emotional levels. Sound bowls produce a high quality energy and vibration which can penetrate deep into a person’s physiology, shifting stagnant energy and opening up areas in the body that have felt blocked.

Daniel and I chat about the clarity and feelings of wholeness and nourishment that can come through sound therapy. When we feel this nourishment on a subtle level, our needs and our stress levels decrease and we feel full, open, and interconnected. Listen in and learn how you can bring sound therapy into your life in order to deeply nourish your cells, calm your nervous system, relieve stress, and create unity consciousness for the betterment of all.

I rap with Daniel Bastacky about Sound Therapy:

• How sound quiets the mind, relaxes the body, and moves energy
• The experience of unity consciousness and the physical and spiritual benefits of sound bowls
• Three different ways in which we take in sounds and why we can sometimes feel sound in our nervous system

What you’ll get out of tuning in:   

• How sound bowls and sound therapy work within our bodies and energy fields
• What happens when you tune into the subtle elements of your physiology   
• How to create your own sound therapy and use it in your everyday life

In today’s podcast Alex BIondo and I talk about our digestion, our appetite, our habits and how the change of seasons has an effect on our physiology and our bodies rhythms. When we live out of tune with the seasons, we cause ourselves disease; when we live in tune with the seasons, we choose flow, harmony and easeful living.

Alex and I dive into detoxing and discuss what a nourishing process detoxing truly is on all levels- physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. We talk about how our bodies aren’t meant to carry old energies of the past into future seasons and how to let those old energies go.

Learn to age gracefully and live in integrity with yourselves and your bodies by following seasonal rhythms and integrate what your body wants to become next!

• Vata dosha and how we are affected as we transition from one season to the next
• How we partner with our body and how we respect our digestive fires
• Basic tips that help us to let go of the old and move excess out of our systems

On today’s podcast I talk with Alex Biondo, our director of Sales and Admissions at Yogahealer about the first habit in Body Thrive: eating an earlier, lighter dinner.

As you are changing and upleveling your habits, it’s a good idea to inform others. Not only does this help you stay accountable to yourself by letting others know, but it also gives your people a heads-up. On today’s show Alexandra Epple and I talk about how you can feel best supported as the person you want to be, how to voice your needs, and how to ask for support from the people in your life that are closest to you.

We all need guidance, space, and time in order to change and become the next level of ourselves. In asking for help, we are humbled. We admit that we are interdependent, not isolated, and that we affect each other. In this episode we show you the simplest, most effective ways to mobilize support in order to help yourself and others along your growth paths, how to accept support, and how to relax and expand into feeling of being supported.

• How to ask for support and how to voice our needs in a society where we aren’t accustomed to ask for help
• How do you want support? Do you feel supported in being the person you want to be?
• Who in your life can support you in the different areas of your life? Who can you talk to about your business, about your family, about problem solving, or about having fun?
• What do you do when those people say they cannot support you?

• How to have a 5 minute conversation with the people in your life about changing your habits and feeling supported
• How to communicate what you need clearly
• If you feel unsupported, how do you realize that you feel that way, and what is the need behind the feeling that is not being fulfilled?
• How to build a new habit loop - determining the habit you want and asking for support

• 2:00- Alexandra and I discuss questions that continually come up in conversation- How to we voice our needs as women, how do we notice that we have unfilled needs and what do we do when we don’t get the support we need?
• 5:45- Certain people in our lives give us support us in certain ways and we can request support in those specific areas from those people. Not all of the people in our lives are meant to support us in every area of our lives.
• 9:50- How much do you in invest and where are you investing in support?
• 12:50- When we are wanting to change something, there is a way of breaking that down into habits and breaking that down into triggers. We can then discover the needs that are not being fulfilled behind our strong emotions.
• 17:00- How to ask those around you if they are willing to support you in becoming the next level of you.

• “What would it feel like for you to have more support than you can dream of?” -Cate Stillman
• “Support is all out there, but am I actually tuning into the right frequency where that need can be met?”  -Cate Stillman
• “You are actually more supported than any human in the history of the world.” -Cate Stillman

In talking to wellness pros, we often hear, between the lines, “I don’t have enough time to do what is most important.” In this Changemaker Challenge episode, Cate and Grace discuss the importance of strategy, organization and project management in pro healer career success.

Overwhelm is a choice. While you might just think you’re really busy, and you might think everything is working, the fact is that if you’re not leveraging your time, if your business isn’t scalable, if you don’t have enough time on any given day to do what is going to make the biggest difference for you and your career months or years down the road, you’re just spinning your wheels and and setting yourself up for more overwhelm.

Learning or creating a good strategy is the key to stepping out of overwhelm. Once you have a good strategy, you need to know how to implement it and make it real with time, attention, and rhythm. The first step is to identify which of your activities are optional, which are enjoyable, and what is scalable. Talk to Grace. She can help you identify the leaks in your time and energy and put you on the path to doing what is most important.

• What’s at stake when we don't have a way to efficiently meet our goals.
• How to managing your big goals.
• What tools work best for goal and project management.

• Have a Conversation with Grace
• Detox with us this spring
• Body Thrive
• Catch Your Dream to Live Your Life at the Next Level

• 4:30 - Overwhelm doesn’t always seem like overwhelm. Sometimes overwhelm looks like multiple streams of income. But if those multiple streams of income are keeping you from living the life and having the lifestyle you want, it’s not working.
• 7:40 - When things aren’t working that well, and you’re experiencing a loss of integrity, you need a better strategy. YHC is a better strategy.
• 9:30 - Scalability is increasing your level of impact and income without increasing the amount of energy you’re expending or the amount of time you’re working. With yoga health coaching, it’s possible to increase impact and income while decreasing the amount of time you spending working.
• 11:20 - While YHC teaches Cate’s strategy for scalability, Awake Living teaches you how to develop your own strategy.
• 15:00 - Once you have a good strategy, you need to know how to implement it and make it real with time, attention, and rhythm.
• 17:00 - Your strategy needs to be simple and you need to use the right tools for the right job.
• 18:40 - Time blocking and using a project management tool is crucial to the success of the implementation of your strategy.
• 22:20 - YHC finds the “leak” in your time faucet and teaches you to focus on activities that will allow you to scale your business. Schedule a conversation with Grace to get started!

In today’s Dharma and Dollars show, I connect with Dana Skoglund, about building a system for your own career or leveraging the system you already have in place. There are people whose strength lies in creating their own system and building it from the ground up and there are others whose natural talents are better used to reinvent someone else’s system. If you’re wondering which type of person you are, this episode is for you.

We rap about being lifelong learners and experimenters by being open and receptive to new ideas and new systems. Is it your natural genius to build and create your own system or not? Are you open to changing your paradigm and learning what you truly want to learn in the process?  What are you learning right now that you need to turn around and teach others?

Find out the answers to these questions and more, as well as how to best uplevel yourself and your system for rapid evolution and career development, in today's podcast.

I rap with Donna Skoglund about systems and leverage:

• The system of Bowspring yoga, its challenges and its benefits
• Why it is so important to be open to new ideas, to drop our expectations and our ego and to always be experimenting
• Dynamic dharma, what is working and not working and how we can constantly improve ourselves and our systems

What you’ll get out of tuning in:

Today I have the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Stephen Cabral, a naturopathic doctor and founder of the Cabral Wellness Institute in Boston, Massachusetts. We discuss Ayurveda, CBD oil, alcohol, bio individuality, functional medicine, and dynamic relationships.  Dr. Cabral shares his story of his “mystery illness” diagnosis in high school and being unable to find any cures or answers with conventional medicine. He began to study everything he could find in the realm of functional medicine and healing the human body with natural measures. He traveled the world searching for answers within Ayurveda, Naturopathy, Chinese medicine, and other holistic modalities until he was able to heal himself. Today, Dr. Cabral firmly believes that there is not a person alive today that cannot achieve wellness with the proper healing measures.
