Reset Your Day With Sacred Transitions
Ever notice how your day turns into one long, uninterrupted scroll? We leave work on a call, weave through traffic still mid-story, and step into the kitchen without ever really arriving. We wanted to break that blur, so we dug into a simple framework: use the day’s natural hinge points—dawn, noon, midafternoon, dusk, and night—as scheduled pauses to reset attention and rebuild a sense of home. This is an excerpt of an interview with Austin Hill Shaw: AustinHillShaw.com Together we explore h...

Integrating Mindfulness, Movement, And Meaning In Your Yoga Class
You can feel when a class lands: the room gets quiet, the body softens, and attention holds steady even as movement continues. That shift is not magic; it’s method.

Sara-Mai's website: https://www.iwriteaboutwellness.com/ We start by redefining yoga as skillful energy movement using both outer and inner...

Healthy Anger, Healthy Body - with Dr. Gabor Maté
When does being “nice” start hurting your health? We explore the surprising science that links suppressed emotions—especially healthy anger and buried grief—to immune function, inflammation, and long-term disease risk. Drawing on affective neuroscience, we break down the core mammalian systems wired for rage, fear, panic and grief, care, seeking, and play, and explain why these circuits exist to protect boundaries and connection, not to create chaos.

From Silence To Seeing: Joseph Goldstein’s Training For The Mind

No mystique, no shortcuts—just a clean method for meeting each moment without the usual tug of wanting and resisting. Joseph's book: https://a.co/d/bsVOXoU We start with the mental fra...

Why Tailored Teaching Beats Cookie Cutter Mindfulness
A stressful morning, a deep tissue reset, and a simple lesson that changes how we teach: relevance beats routine.

We walk through a practical approach to choosing what to teach by asking short, respectful questions, listening for needs, and then adapting practices so they fit real people and real constraints. You’ll hear why a trauma‑informed...
