    Colleen Quinn on the breath as a critical gateway to conscious living

    Breathing is the only bodily process that can be practiced consciously and unconsciously, tapping into the physical, spiritual and mystical all at once with a simple intake and release of the breath. Yet, like many parts of the body and self, this process has been trivialised and mechanised by the head-centric dominant culture, blocking the foundational gateway to consciousness that makes us the relational, caregivers we innately are. How can we bring the conscious back into the “unconscious” through breathwork as a crucial pathway to deprogramming the human being as separate to the rest of the world?   In this month’s episode, we bring onto the show Colleen Quinn, a transpersonal psychologist with a child specialty along with certification in breathwork. Colleen has taught psychology at The Ohio State University, Virginia Commonwealth University, Columbus State Community College and has published research in many top-tier scientific journals, among them Emotion, Adolescent Psychology, and Residential Treatment for Children and Youth to name a few. In her private practice, spanning decades, Colleen used Somatic Experiencing (SE) and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Both techniques use breathwork to find and feel our body’s stored traumas, loving them to bring healing.  Through a guided breathwork practice to exploring the themes of her latest book Essence Merging, Colleen takes us on a journey to remembering the human being as embodied love through the foundational pathway to consciousness - the breath. The episode is an invitation for listeners to discover their own divine blueprint, and return home to the sacred self as deeply connected to life on Earth and beyond.

    Kailea Rose Loften and Kate Rose Weiner on building disaster-resilience through communities of care

    Disaster preparedness expands beyond short-term charity and immediate on-ground support, yet the “behind-the-scenes” relational work of ongoing organising and community resilience-building is often sidelined by the capitalist aid paradigm. How can leveraging the work of mutual aid organisers and providers through community publishing and media platforms help sustain existing infrastructures of care fortifying disaster preparedness?  In this episode, we are joined by Kailea Rose Loften and Kate Rose Weiner, coeditors of the community publisher Loam and co-authors of the book Compassion in crisis: building disaster-resilient communities. Kailea Rose Loften is a mother of Tahltan, Kaska, and Black American ancestry. She has a background climate change policy with an emphasis on Indigenous rights, previously serving as a Climate Commissioner for the City of Petaluma, California. Kate Weiner works at the intersections of culture and climate justice as a writer and editor, and her work is shaped by her studies in environmental art, social practice, and community herbalism. With the extended version of Compassion in Crisis launching in May, we explore the ways the book provides insight into relational practices and care infrastructures for disaster preparedness and management to support and build community resilience pre- and post-disaster.  Visit mindfullofeverything.com to access full episode shownotes, resources and archives.

    Julie Brams on re-earthing psychotherapy practice for collective healing

    Nature “connectedness” is often prescribed as a healing modality for our trauma states but this eco-psychological approach fails to get to the root of our socioecological problems - the separation of the human being from nature. Whilst utilising the benefits of nature immersion to aid our healing journeys is essential, how can we move away from individualistic healing paradigms to re-earthing the nature-embedded mind, bereft of social conditionings on human exceptionalism, to heal and regenerate in the collective? In our first guest episode of the year, we invite to the show Julie Brams, an Earth-centered psychotherapist, meditation practitioner/teacher, and author of The Nature Embedded Mind: How the Way We Think Can Heal Our Planet and Ourselves. The Nature Embedded Mind is a groundbreaking new book at the intersection of psychology, ecology, and social justice. Certified as an ANFT Forest Therapy Guide, and founder of the nature-informed retreat and education organisation Elemental, Julie integrates Earth-centred psychotherapy, neuropsychology, meditation, and nature immersion to help individuals and communities heal their relationship with earth. Drawing on clinical practice, evidence based methodology, and scientific research, as well as lived experience and relational work, Julie guides us on how healing our disconnection from our Earth is the next frontier of psychology.
