This episode was originally broadcast Aug 11, 2017 Lots of laughter in this second of Chris Phillips’ sessions with us for the month of August! (Before I forget, here’s the link I said I’d post to Dr. Dan Siegel and his book, which Chris was trying to remember the name of, is “Mindsight”). You’ll have to listen to learn why were were laughing so much but here’s a hint: it was about laughter as a way of getting past the ego. Between guffaws, we also explored a VERY cool concept called The Wheel of Awareness, which Chris loved sharing with us – even though she admits she doesn’t really like the metaphor used to share the concept. Confused?

Getting to Know Chris Phillips – Pre-Session
This episode was originally broadcast Aug 4, 2017 Today we welcome the luminous Chris Phillips into the Special Guest Guide chair for a 4 week run in August! In this pre-session chat, we find out why Chris describes herself as a “meditation retreat junkie”, where laughter comes from and whether or not it’s okay to break protocol in a silent retreat to ask someone what brand of yoga pants they are wearing. We also officially declare that the monkeys of ‘monkey mind’ have gotten an unfair rap and choose another animal to carry the metaphor in a kinder, more gentle way.

The Plasticity of Fibromyalgia – Pre-Session
This episode was originally broadcast July 28, 2017 Have you got personal experience with fibromyalgia – either had/have it or know someone who has? If so, you’ll find this, our fourth and final chat with Special Guest Meditation Guide for July Celina Tonkin especially interesting. But even if it just sounds like a random kind of building material or something and you’re wondering why we’re devoting an entire Pre-Session to the subject, you’ll love how we bring it all around to the topic of neuroplasticity. Because changing your brain to change your body – is a thing.… About our Pre-Sessions: Every week, for 15 minutes or so before we began our group meditation broadcast, we opened the mics so that our members tuning in for the session could listen in while we talked about what was going on for us personally and spiritually, and what trends we were noticing.

The Crap That Happens For a Reason – Pre-Session
This episode was originally broadcast July 21, 2017 You will have to listen to this week’s Pre-Session chat with Celina Tonkin to find out what prompted Celina to say “Naomi and Stephen, you really mucked it up!” And we did. Boy, did we. But we learned from it and that’s what matters. Which is what, ultimately, this chat was all about. As Celina put it, to quote her again (because she’s so darn quotable!), “The biggest gifts in life come in very ugly packages”. And Steve and I agree. No matter how bad something was, there was always a gift of some kind in it – and hardly ever any indication from the ugly wrapping that ANYTHING good could come out of it, let alone a life-shift. Of course, with Tapper Celina in the Guest chair this month, we talk about how to use EFT to unwrap that package so the blessings inside can be revealed… About our Pre-Sessions: Every week, for 15 minutes or so before we began our group meditation broadcast, we opened the mics so that our members tuning in for the session could listen in while we talked about what was going on for us personallyThe Crap That Happens For a Reason – Pre-Session
