    Spiritual Regression Hypnotherapy: Releasing Trauma Without Reliving It, with Taras Machula

    Most mindfulness practices, whether it's breathwork, journaling, or meditation, are trying to do one thing: bring you back to your heart. But what happens when the mind you're trying to quiet keeps pulling you toward every unresolved thread in your life? In this episode of The Mindful Journey, Sana sits with Taras Machula, a certified hypnotherapist and spiritual regression practitioner from Manitoba, Canada, whose own healing journey began with a visitation from his late father and years spent searching more than forty places of worship for what unconditional love actually feels like. The conversation moves through spiritual regression, releasing trauma without reliving it, and the quiet work of trusting your own heart when the world hands you a hundred conflicting answers. About the Guest:Taras Machula is a certified hypnotherapist and hypnotherapy instructor with the National Guild of Hypnotists, based in Manitoba, Canada. He works as a spiritual regression practitioner and Reiki master, and is the founder of Healing with Love, a growing community exploring compassion, connection, and purpose through the heart. Key Takeaways:Breathwork, journaling and meditation all point toward the same goal, reconnecting to the heart, not just quieting the mind.A vivid dream or visitation from someone who has passed isn't automatically something to dismiss, it can be worth sitting with.Trauma doesn't need to be relived in detail to be released, some approaches work with the pattern it left rather than the memory itself.Underneath most addictive behavior sits an unmet need for unconditional love, and recovery often begins the moment that love is finally felt.Healing rarely moves in a straight line, and that's not a sign anything is going wrong.

    How to Listen to Your Body: Andrew Scheim on Body Work and Detox

    Most of us learn to override our bodies instead of listening to them. Andrew Scheim, an integrative wellness practitioner and advanced body worker, has spent decades helping people do the opposite. From his years as a blues musician to acupuncture, detox, and PEMF therapy, Andrew walks through how the body holds what the mind hasn't processed, and why real healing needs both the right input and real movement. About the Guest: Andrew Scheim is an integrative wellness practitioner, educator, and advanced body worker with decades of experience working with chronic and complex health challenges. His work spans hands-on body work, nervous system and trauma resolution, nutrition, detoxification, and advanced wellness technologies including PEMF and molecular hydrogen therapy. Key Takeaways: The body holds what the mind hasn't processed yet, and it keeps signaling until you listen.Detox needs both the right input and real movement, like soap and an agitator in a washing machine.Chronic illness often means outsmarting pathogens that work around the clock, not chasing a single quick fix.Simple daily movement, like gentle rebounding, can help pump and detox the cells.Awareness alone isn't the finish line. Real change means acting on what your body is telling you. Connect With the Guest: Andrew's YouTube channel and practitioner site are both under the handle Bluez The Water, where he also offers a free one-hour wellness strategy session.

    Health on Planet Earth: The HOPE Framework with David Gottfried

    There's a kind of hope that doesn't just wait for things to get better. It builds plans, creates, and moves through the world with purpose. When it comes to the health of a planet, that kind of hope isn't optional, it's the whole point. Swati sits down with David Gottfried, founder of the U.S. Green Building Council and the World Green Building Council, for a conversation that moves from backpacking in Yosemite as a young naturalist to designing a net-zero home in 1980, to the framework he now calls HOPE: Health on Planet Earth. This is a grounded, honest look at where planetary health actually starts, closer to home than most of us think, and what keeps a person going when the scale of the problem feels too big to touch. About the Guest:David Gottfried is widely recognized as a founder of the global green building movement, having launched both the U.S. Green Building Council and the World Green Building Council, now spanning more than 85 countries. A Stanford-trained engineer and four-time author, his newest book, Regen360: An Operating System for a Regenerative Earth, introduces the Earth Code and the HOPE framework at the center of this conversation. Key Takeaways:HOPE, Health on Planet Earth, starts with a value hierarchy: life at the center, then what sustains life (clean air, water, soil), then the systems that support us.Growth at all costs creates toxicity that depletes hope, for the planet and for people. Growth with a lighter footprint doesn't require abandoning capitalism.Planetary health isn't only a macro issue. It starts with your own breath, your body, your relationships, and the small choices you make at home.When the scale of a problem feels overwhelming, take an honest inventory. Note what's false or harmful, prioritize the biggest item, and build a plan around it.Burnout and setbacks are universal. Stepping outside, breathing (try box breathing), and reconnecting with nature helps shift out of a fear response.Hope isn't a feeling you wait for. It's something you practice through the choices you make and the way you show up for the world around you.

    Boundaries and Internal Safety: Barb Nangle on How to Stop Abandoning Yourself

    Most of us think boundaries fail because our words aren't firm enough. Boundaries coach Barb Nangle returns to The Mindful Journey to explain why boundaries actually collapse when we don't feel safe enough inside ourselves to hold them. Barb walks through the moment at 52 that led her into twelve-step recovery, how codependency and victim mentality show up in subtle everyday ways, and how learning to build internal safety helped her heal her relationship with food and with other people. About the Guest: Barb Nangle is a boundaries coach, speaker, author, and podcast host who helps women build internal safety. Her own twelve-step recovery journey, beginning at 52, led her to understand codependency, intergenerational trauma, and compulsive overeating. She hosts the podcast Fragmented to Whole and is based in New Haven, Connecticut. Key Takeaways: Boundaries fail less because of the words we use and more because we don't feel safe enough inside to hold them.A concrete boundary is clear, not rigid; think of a fence with a gate, not a wall.Victim mentality can be subtle. Saying "if only they would" is still handing your power away.Discomfort doesn't mean danger. Someone else's upset feelings are not proof you did something wrong.There are two kinds of discomfort: the discomfort of dysfunction that gets worse over time, and the discomfort of growth that eventually fades.Boundaries are less about saying no and more about saying yes to what you actually need.

    There Is No Destination, Only Presence: Terry Bean on The Mindful Journey

    We spend so much time thinking about where we're going, our careers, our goals, the things we want to achieve, and far less time noticing what's happening inside us while we do it all. Swati sits down with Terry Bean, author, executive life coach, and speaker, to talk about mindfulness as something far more accessible than most people assume, and growth as a practice rather than a place you eventually arrive. Terry shares her own decades-long personal development journey, the patterns that quietly disconnect people from themselves, and simple practices, from a family mantra to a single mindful breath before getting out of bed, that make presence realistic even on busy days. About the Guest: Terry Bean is an author, executive life coach, and speaker based in Whitestone, Queens, New York. She spent decades in real estate before shifting her focus toward children's books and personal development work. She is the author of the children's picture book ABRACADABRA and its companion coloring and creativity book, is certified in NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), and is currently developing a mindfulness app for families. Key Takeaways: Catching a negative thought pattern earlier, before it turns into a spiral, is a skill that gets easier with practice, the goal isn't avoiding hard moments but shortening how long you stay stuck in themWatch for moments when you're seeking outside validation more than genuinely engaging with a conversation or moment, that pull toward external approval can be a sign of losing touch with yourselfTry a simple morning practice: before getting out of bed, take a breath and set an intention for the day, rather than immediately reaching for your phone or running through the day's tasksA shared family mantra, repeated by everyone and revisited at a phone-free mealtime, can build a sense of togetherness that's simple enough for kids to actually useGrowth isn't a destination you eventually reach, treating it as an ongoing process rather than a fixed endpoint can make setbacks feel like information rather than failure Connect With the Guest: Website: https://www.terrybeanauthor.com Book: ABRACADABRA (picture book and companion coloring & creativity book) Episode Chapters: [00:00] Growing While We're Not Looking [00:49] Meet Terry Bean: Real Estate, Children's Books, and a Life of Reinvention [04:16] The Biggest Misconception About Mindfulness [06:01] The Patterns That Keep Us Disconnected From Ourselves [09:47] Red Flags: When You're Losing Yourself in Other People's Opinions [16:21] A Morning and Mealtime Practice Any Family Can Try [20:30] What Setbacks Actually Teach Us About Growth 🎙️ Want to Be a Guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

    Surviving Your Own Dark Night of the Soul: Frances Fayden on The Mindful Journey

    The phrase "dark night of the soul" gets used often enough that it can lose its weight, but it's not a bad week, it's a complete disconnection from everything that used to hold meaning. Sana sits down with Reverend Frances Fayden, spiritual mentor, author, and host of the Magnify Your Miracles podcast, to talk about what happened on the other side of hers. Frances walks through the six years she spent inside a spiritual community, the grief and self-doubt that followed leaving it, and the 2012 encounter she says changed the direction of her life and work. About the Guest: Rev. Frances Fayden is a spiritual mentor, author, and host of the Magnify Your Miracles podcast, with more than 30 years of experience as an intuitive entrepreneur and interfaith minister. In 2012, an encounter she attributes to Mother Mary shifted her path. She now works as a modern minister helping creative women entrepreneurs move beyond hustle culture and into a deeper relationship with the divine. Key Takeaways: What's often called a "dark night of the soul" isn't limited to religious contexts, it can follow any major loss, a job, a relationship, a community, that leaves you feeling isolated and disconnected from your own sense of guidanceDuring a period of disconnection, small, repeatable anchors, a specific piece of music, a daily walk, basic self-care, can function as something to hold onto even when deeper practices feel impossibleWatch for decisions being driven mainly by "will this be acceptable to the group" rather than genuine personal conviction, that pattern can be a sign of giving away your own sense of agencyReading about someone else's experience with a similar dynamic in a different context can help you see a personal wound as part of a broader, common pattern rather than something uniquely wrong with youIf someone you know is quietly going through a difficult period, the most useful message may simply be that it's okay to have their feelings, and that persistence, not answers, tends to be what carries people through Connect With the Guest: Website: https://francesfayden.com Free Session: https://francesfayden.com/gift Podcast: Magnify Your Miracles Rev.

    Building a Relationship on Purpose: The Monument Method with Gaylen Wilson

    Most couples build their relationship on chemistry alone, and that's exactly why so many struggle once the early romance phase fades. This episode is for anyone who wants their relationship to be intentional rather than left to instinct. Gaylen Wilson joins Sreemedha to share the Monument Method, a practice he and his wife Heather built to stop fights before they start, repair connection quickly, and protect their relationship as something worth defending together instead of a battleground for who's right. About the Guest:Gaylen Wilson is a certified thriving relationship coach and co-creator, with his wife Heather, of the Monument Method, a framework for protecting emotional connection under pressure. He and Heather have written more than 20 books on the subject and run the Monument Method Institute. Key Takeaways:Many relationships are built on chemistry rather than structure, which is why so many struggle once the early romance phase fades.Most fights aren't really about the topic at hand. They're often the body's attachment instinct sensing a threat and triggering fight-or-flight.A shared sacred word, called out the moment a fight is starting, can interrupt the pattern before real damage is done.Eye contact and physical closeness can signal safety to the nervous system, helping both partners return to logical, calm conversation faster.Small, consistent moments of connection, not just conflict repair, build emotional safety and can help intimacy grow over time.

    Releasing Fear After the Storm: Fadi Sarieddine on The Mindful Journey

    When something hard happens, the storm usually passes, but it tends to leave something behind, a quiet wiring that says stay small, stay guarded, don't hope too much. Sana sits down with Fadi Sarieddine, a spiritual healer and author, to talk about the fear that keeps steering decisions long after the hard thing is actually over. Fadi shares the story behind his upcoming book, At the End of a Storm, what it felt like to carry an invisible armor for years, and a practical way to start noticing where fear, rather than genuine caution, might be running the show. About the Guest: Fadi Sarieddine is a spiritual healer and author based in Dubai. His path began during a period of significant personal crisis that included suicidal thoughts and a suicide attempt. He describes receiving guidance during that time that he attributes to the archangels, and now helps others reconnect with hope after difficult seasons. His book, At the End of a Storm, channeled with Archangel Gabriel, is set for release on August 6 through Amazon. Key Takeaways: Fear can keep functioning long after a hard period has ended, and it's easy to mistake it for simply "being careful" rather than recognizing it as fear still steering decisionsNotice where fear shows up physically, in Fadi's experience it often shows as chronic tension in specific areas of the body, treat that as a signal worth paying attention toConstant vigilance and worst-case-scenario planning can be genuinely useful in some situations, but if it's happening nearly all the time, it may be less about real threats and more about an old protective patternFadi's approach centers on anchoring in a sense of connection or faith, however you define it, rather than trying to control every possible outcome as protectionWhen something difficult is happening, try asking "what's the wisdom in this" instead of only "why is this happening to me," sometimes there's nothing to fix, only something to move through Connect With the Guest: Website: https://fadispeaks.com Book: At the End of a Storm (just released on Amazon) Episode Chapters: [00:00] The Wreckage a Storm Leaves Behind [05:23] Meet Fadi Sarieddine, Author of At the End of a Storm [07:43] Twelve Years Ago: When Everything Fell Apart [12:07] The Storm the Book Is Really About [19:05] What It Feels Like When an Archangel Steps In [22:49] Building an Invisible Armor, and What It Costs [26:14] Anchoring in Faith: How to Start Putting the Armor Down 🎙️ Want to Be a Guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?
