The Daily Reconnect

Self narrative for identity connection - Friday Focus

It's Friday Focus! Today we'll focus on memories that resonate with our identity, which can be used as one way to reconnect with the present when feeling dissociated or disconnected. The soundscape is from the forest behind my house. Enjoy the rain and ravens in the distance as we focus on the parts of our identity we value the most.

Vagus Nerve Regulation with Bilateral Stimulation & Breath

Let's go outdoors (if possible) to ground ourselves in nature for an exercise that targets the vagus nerve. Hear the rainy forest and ravens behind my studio as you activate the vagus nerve pathway in this grounding vagal exercise that promotes both safety and connection. You can do this exercise indoors or out, standing or seated -- or while walking.

Monday Motivation: Grassroots Resistance

Mondays are now Monday Motivation. What?! The podcast is reorganizing a bit, while "being the same thing." On Mondays I will share a message to help stay motivated to fight the good fight. Wednesday will offer an episode recorded in nature to help ground you. And Friday will offer an opportunity to reflect to help you reconnect with reality. So, today for Monday Motivation, we explore the space between recognition of a problem, and action. That space is where many of us might find ourselves today.
