    The Worry Balloon with Monica Mancillas
    Nov 15 2024
    In this episode, I'm joined by Monica Mancillas, author of The Worry Balloon, inspired by the challenges she and those she loves sometimes face managing anxiety, and the tools, great and small, that have helped them walk through each of them. During these times of angst, contentiousness, and worry in our Nation, this discussion and these suggestions couldn't be more timely. Our children deserve to know that their anxiety is seen, as well as manageable, without fear of being shamed for opening up about all the many ways it can be manifesting within and around them. Let's start by talking about anxiety as families together! Monica's story and book provide a great platform to begin. Order her book today!

    Empowered Recovery #1
    Nov 8 2024
    EMPOWERED RECOVERY ("ER") is protecting our sobriety, trauma healing, and spiritual growth from the toxic emotion of shame, or a feeling that our trauma and/or addiction means we are flawed, defective, and unworthy of acceptance and love. In this series, WE empower recovery together by learning how to identify, remove, and shift shame-based thoughts and emotions from being harmful and separating, to being healing and connecting. Let's lower the number of addiction and mental health related emergency room (ER) visits and empower recovery instead by banning all shame related to such struggles both within and around us, manifesting a more healed, compassionate, and supportive world for all!

  • Freedom from the Blame Game

    Freedom from the Blame Game
    Oct 25 2024
    When one person blames another person for something bad or unfortunate, and never, or rarely, attempts to own their part and find a solution, a "Blame Game" exists. Blame games are confusing, frustrating, painful, and emotionally exhausting experiences. No one wants to be in one, so why are they so common and seemingly drawn out? A blame game will continue "UNLESS and UNTIL BOTH individuals sit with their own discomfort first," Dr. Poulter explains, emphasizing that, by accepting responsibility for our own feelings, acts, and emotions, we are courageously vulnerable, which true intimacy requires. So how can we free ourselves from an existing blame game? How do we prevent one from happening in the first place? Listen into this episode to receive specific steps you can take and never find yourself in one again! FREE TIP SHEET GIVE BACK FOLLOW DR.STEVE Learn more about your ad choices.

  • The Power of Silence with Priya Jain

    The Power of Silence with Priya Jain
    Oct 4 2024
    "Silence is the warmest hug you can ever receive," Priya Jain explains, Founder Seventh Chakra Institute of Spiritual Sciences. So why are we so afraid of it? Why do we fill our days with a sensory overload to the point we actually believe it is reality. It isn't. "Reality" exists in the non-tangible truths of life - in our heart, intuition, and knowing - all of which are available to us through silence. The challenge is that silence requires us to put down our ego and simply just be, exactly as we are in the moment. It took time and effort for Nadia to learn how to do this, and to this day it is a challenge, so she committed to do a silent retreat next month. In this episode, she asks Priya for motivation and gets it. "Silence is absolute acceptance as you are, however you are. It is unconditional love," she says. Underneath the turbulence of waves around you is an ocean of love and power within you. If Nadia reached it, so can you!
