Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/872791/fan_mail/new]
For the last episode of the year, I sit down with Nadine Prager to talk about burnout and what we can do, especially at the end of the year, to avoid it.
You can find Nadine via her website [https://www.nadineprager.com], or on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/_nadine_prager_/], or join her Telegram WhatsApp group, The Luxury of Sensitivity [https://t.me/TheLuxuryofSensitivity].
Also check out her wonderful podcast, Too Sensitive, My Ass! [https://open.spotify.com/show/7oxggE57GNN0WQj84OeYw3?si=Qe6vp23VSqSCz0-oCJVmkA&utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&nd=1&dlsi=b162950647d641f7] which we didn't have time to talk about today, and keep your eyes peeled – Nadine has a book coming out in 2026!
Another thing we didn't get to is astrocartography, a service Nadine offers that can help you find out which location in the world is beneficial for you and your goals in life.
Sperrnächte ("Lockdown Nights"/"Dark Nights") refer to a spiritual time (December 8-21, culminating in Solstice) in Germanic traditions where people intentionally slow down, cease work, cleanse their homes, and reflect on the past year to prepare for the new, allowing for deep introspection and energetic clearing before the main "Magic Nights" (Rauhnächte) begin.
Rauhnächte (or "Rough Nights"/"Magic Nights") are 12 sacred nights between Christmas and Epiphany (Dec 25th - Jan 5th) in Central European folklore, a liminal time when the veil between worlds is thin, spirits roam, and people perform cleansing, introspective, and divinatory rituals like burning herbs (incense), journaling, and using the "13 Wishes" ritual to set intentions for the coming year, often involving quiet reflection and driving out bad energy.
