This year for me is chock full of projects and I’m about to embark on a vacation out of the country. I have therefore decided to take some time off of the Peaceful Life Podcast. I’ll be keeping the show online on all podcast apps and on my website, so please stay subscribed to the peaceful life podcast so you get the new episodes as they’re created. If the spirit moves me and I am moved to talk about something, I’ll record an episode...

I talk about what goes into creating a PLP episode, give an update on the state of my own healing, and read three letters from my listeners. Including this loaded question: "If you believe everyone is a spectacular human being, does that include Donald Trump?"

If you're human you've probably gone through a bad breakup some time during your life. Sometimes the hurt stays with us for years. In this episode, I discuss good and bad relationships, how relationships break, and how you can avoid it breaking you.

I talk about how music has always been a part of my life, my musical journey through college, and welcome another guest talking about music and healing. Lauren Mullinax is an extraordinary musician, composer, and vocalist, and has devoted her life to using music to soothe those in trauma, with illness, and at end of life.

We've all turned to music to help heal us emotionally. But did you know music and sound can heal us physically, as well? In this first of a two-part series, I speak with Bill Protzmann, a man whose mission is to heal and teach self-care through music. 

This is a visualization that you can use daily to help your body naturally heal what ails you. It's best to listen to this episode in bed, lying on your back, but if that's not comfortable for you then use a soft recliner or chair. This visualization technique is not meant to be used instead or in place of professional medical treatment, but to enhance your body's healing process.

What is pain, exactly? Do you believe that we can think our way out of pain? I do. This episode covers techniques to manage chronic and acute pain, what pain means to you, and how to handle it.

If you are living with illness, chronic disease, or pain, there are many steps you can take to start healing yourself.

How we can change our perception of New Year's resolutions. A guided visualization to recap your previous year and look ahead with positivity and gratitude. 

In this, the anniversary show, I tell a story of how I'm ending this year with broken bones, how I get through it (peacefully), and do a short review of the first season of The Peaceful Life Podcast. Thank you to all of my listeners and guests who have made the show a success!

An episode on how negative or positive thoughts can affect you, your body, your soul, the people and the world around you. You have the choice how to react to people and situations, and your life becomes so much better, happier, and more peaceful when you choose the positive.

In this episode, you'll hear some tips on how to incorporate relaxation throughout your day. It's a stressful world! But you don't have to internalize it at all.
