    Getting Primal Through Food Cultivation and Preservation

    Staci and Jeremy started their farm in 2016 and have spent years learning to produce and preserve the majority of their own food, all while raising their kids alongside the process. Their book fills a gap most people never think about: growing food and preserving it are two separate skill sets and connecting them changes everything.In this conversation, they break down practical techniques for canning, freeze-drying, and dehydration, share hard-won lessons on managing pests, soil health, and unpredictable weather, and make the case that self-sufficient food production isn't just about survival, it's about mental clarity, physical wellbeing, and building something meaningful with your family and community.Whether you have a backyard garden or you're just getting started, this episode will leave you with a new appreciation for where your food comes from and the confidence to do something about it.https://www.themindfulmovement.comThanks so much for all of your support!With gratitude,Les and SaraSome of our Favorites (affiliates)https://www.themindfulmovement.com/resources---------------------------------------------1:1 SessionsPERSONALIZED HYPNOTHERAPY, TRANSFORMATIONAL COACHING, OR MOVEMENT COACHING https://www.themindfulmovement.com/hypnotherapy-and-transformational-coaching

    Fix Your Neck, Fix Your Nervous System (And Your Health)

    In this episode, I sit down with chiropractor, structural integration specialist, and movement coach Dr. Lawrence van Lingen for a fascinating deep dive into how the neck and nervous system shape nearly every aspect of your health. We cover the hidden toll that screen time is taking on your cervical spine and nervous system, how to self-organize the neck to improve posture from the inside out, and why the vagus nerve plays such a central role in autoimmunity and overall wellbeing. Lawrence also breaks down the surprising connection between eye movements and your autonomic nervous system, and explains how the dura mater, the connective tissue surrounding your spinal cord, influences both spinal health and the quality of your sleep. This one will genuinely change the way you head and your eyes.https://www.themindfulmovement.comThanks so much for all of your support!With gratitude,Les and SaraSome of our Favorites (affiliates)https://www.themindfulmovement.com/resources---------------------------------------------1:1 SessionsPERSONALIZED HYPNOTHERAPY, TRANSFORMATIONAL COACHING, OR MOVEMENT COACHING https://www.themindfulmovement.com/hypnotherapy-and-transformational-coaching---------------------------------------------🙏 The Mindful Movement is happy to provide these meditations, podcasts, and videos free of charge.

Diagnosed with scoliosis herself at age five, Christine brings both personal experience and deep expertise to this conversation.

    Navigating Relationships in The World of AI With a Therapist

    In this episode, I sit down with Bill Eddy, a therapist, legal educator, and co-founder of the High Conflict Institute. With a unique background spanning clinical social work, family law, and mediation, Bill has spent decades studying high-conflict behavior and helping people navigate some of the most difficult interpersonal dynamics. We break down what actually defines a high-conflict personality, where these behavior patterns come from, and how they often overlap with personality disorders. Bill walks through practical tools like EAR statements and BIF responses, which are designed to de-escalate conflict in real time. We also explore how AI and modern technology are shaping the way we communicate, and what that means for conflict moving forward. Themindfulmovement.com Thanks so much for all of your support!

    Our Relationship To Wealth and Money | A Financial Advisors Perspective

    In this episode, I sit down with Brian Turner, a financial advisor based in Maryland and partner at a wealth management firm, where he works closely with individuals and families to build long-term financial strategies. With a background in portfolio management and financial planning, Brian brings a grounded, real-world perspective on what it actually takes to create sustainable wealth. We go beyond numbers in this conversation. We talk about how money shapes family dynamics, why a holistic approach to wealth and success matters, and how vulnerability and authenticity play a bigger role in financial health than most people realize. Brian also breaks down the importance of education and mindset, and how the way you think about money can either limit you or open doors.

    Are We Losing Our Humanity to AI?

    In this episode, I sit down with Mingtong Gu to explore what happens to human awareness in an increasingly digital world, and why reconnecting with the body may be more important than ever. We talk about the impact of AI on consciousness, the risks of disconnection, and how conscious choices can help preserve what makes us human. Mingtong Gu is a Qigong master, teacher, and founder of The Chi Center. He is also the author of Coming Home to Embodied Awakening, where he teaches a body-centered approach to awareness and healing. We dive into the role of embodiment, why practices like Qigong and sound healing have persisted for centuries, and how reconnecting with your body and nature can support resilience, clarity, and overall well-being in a rapidly evolving world. 1:1 Sessions PERSONALIZED HYPNOTHERAPY, TRANSFORMATIONAL COACHING, OR MOVEMENT COACHING --------------------------------------------- Themindfulmovement.com Thanks so much for all of your support!

    From Atheism to Belief | A Physicist’s Journey into Faith

    In this episode of the Mindful Movement Podcast, I sit down with Michael Guillen to explore a journey that bridges two worlds most people think are at odds, science and spirituality. Michael shares his path from atheism to belief, and what it took for someone trained at the highest levels of physics to completely rethink his perspective on reality. We get into how his scientific background shaped, not weakened, his sense of curiosity about deeper questions, including the nature of the universe, consciousness, and meaning. We also dive into his latest project, the documentary Invisible Everywhere, and the role AI is beginning to play in filmmaking. Michael breaks down how emerging technology is changing the creative process and what that could mean for the future of storytelling.
