 There are so many podcasts to choose from. It’s tough to know which ones are worth a listen. I’ll be honest here: I’m not a daily or even a weekly podcast listener. Over the years, however, I’ve discovered several podcasts that I keep coming back to again and again for thought-provoking, useful, and heart-touching insights.
Here’s my partial list (in no order of preference):

 Increasingly, it seems our days flow from one thing to the next without much opportunity for a break - a transition moment, a space to orient to where you are. You may often find yourself listening to podcasts, or news, or watching content on a social media platform at the same time you’re doing something else: brushing your teeth, driving, walking, eating, working, and so on. This is the world we’re in. There is endless information to take in, to know about. So much seems like it’s urgent, “breaking news.”
And yet, some part of you may know or sense that it’s too much; too much to track, too much to process, just too much. If you find yourself feeling this way, I invite you to check out the practice of taking a “pause”: P – Pause: Gently stop whatever you’re engaged with. A – Attend: Pay attention to what’s going on around you in space. U – Unite: Connect the mind with the body by naming, silently or out loud, three things you see. S – Sense: Notice your feet on the ground (or whatever surface they’re connected to); if sitting, feel your butt on the seat and your back touching the back of whatever you’re sitting on. E – Exhale: Take three slow and full breaths in and out, focusing on the exhale. There is no need to force or strain the breath. |
