    509: How the Body Stores Trauma, Stress, and Emotional Blocks | Harmony Slater

    In this episode, I'm joined by Harmony Slater for a soulful conversation about the body, the breath, energetic healing, and the hidden patterns that can keep us out of alignment with who we really are. We talk about how the body holds emotional experiences, why so many of us feel disconnected from ourselves, and how healing happens when we slow down enough to listen to what our body has been trying to tell us all along. Harmony shares her personal journey through yoga, mysticism, energy work, and healing from autoimmune symptoms and chronic fatigue. We also explore the mind-body connection, the role of the nervous system, and how unconscious beliefs, emotional patterns, and old wounds can shape the way we show up in our lives. This is a grounded and expansive conversation about coming back into wholeness through breath, awareness, and deep inner healing. In this episode, you'll learn:  Harmony's journey from religious studies and philosophy into yoga, meditation, and energy work What Ashtanga yoga is and how it shaped her path How spinal energetics works and why it can be such a powerful healing modality How emotional pain, trauma, and unconscious beliefs can build up in the body over time How old experiences can create hidden patterns that still affect us today The connection between the body, the unconscious mind, and emotional healing Simple ways to use breath and nature to feel more grounded and supported each day Why spiritual practice can become another form of control if we are not aware of what is really driving it Harmony Slater is a masterful teacher, breathwork guide, spiritual mentor, and one of only a handful of certified Ashtanga yoga teachers worldwide. Her work weaves together ancient wisdom, energetic healing, nervous system support, and modern transformation to help people reconnect with themselves and live in greater alignment.

We talk about the massive awakening happening right now, why so many people are questioning the lives they've built, and what it looks like to reconnect with your heart, your intuition, and your soul's deeper purpose.

    507: Sadness, Anger, Fear: What Do We Do With Our Emotions?

    In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Liz Burkholder for a real, unscripted conversation about emotions, what they're here to teach us, and how to move through them in a healthy way. We talk about anger, grief, sadness, fear, anxiety, and what happens when we keep pushing our emotions down instead of allowing them to move through us. Liz and I also explore what it means to truly hold space for ourselves and for other people, why so many of us were never taught how to feel our emotions, and how emotional repression can show up in the body, in relationships, and in everyday life. This is a powerful conversation about learning to stay present with what you feel instead of bypassing it, fixing it, or trying to make it go away. In this episode, you'll hear:  Why anger is a healthy emotion and how it can help you set boundaries The difference between feeling anger and projecting it onto other people How emotions like sadness and anger can sometimes cover for each other Why grief needs space, presence, and support instead of being rushed away What anxiety and depression can reveal about unfelt emotions How emotional repression can impact the body, relationships, and nervous system What it looks like to let emotions move through you instead of storing them inside Why so many of us were never taught how to process emotions in a healthy way Liz Burkholder is the founder of Go Within Institute. She helps people heal through breathwork, subconscious work, nervous system regulation, and deep emotional processing. Her work supports clients, clinicians, and coaches in learning how to move through life with greater presence, connection, and self-trust.

    Today, I'm joined by therapist, bestselling author, and speaker Amy Morin for a deeply honest conversation about what it really means to become mentally strong. Amy shares how her understanding of mental strength was shaped not only by her work as a therapist, but by walking through profound grief, unexpected loss, and the kind of life experiences that can completely change you.  We talk about the difference between grief and self-pity, why people-pleasing drains us, how boundaries support mental strength, and what to do with the inner critic that keeps trying to run the show. Amy also shares powerful insight on social media, comparison, alone time, and why becoming mentally strong often starts with the smallest choices we make each day.  In this episode, you'll learn:  The difference between feeling your grief and getting stuck in self-pity How to stop giving away your power to other people Why mentally strong people don't avoid change How to learn from mistakes instead of repeating them Why alone time and reflection are essential for emotional health How people pleasing weakens your sense of self Why boundaries are a key part of mental strength How to work with your inner critic through self-compassion How social media fuels comparison and what to do instead Why being intentional about what you consume matters for your mental well-being Resources from this Episode: Find Amy's books, Tedx Talks and more on Amy's website Listen to Mentally Stronger with Therapist Amy Morin Get the Mentally Strong app here!

    505: How Small Changes Create Real Transformation | Eric Zimmer

    In this episode, I'm joined by Eric Zimmer for a grounded and honest conversation about what real change actually looks like and why lasting transformation usually doesn't happen all at once. Eric shares his powerful recovery story, what finally helped him create lasting change, and why the smallest daily choices often matter more than the big breakthrough moments we tend to chase. We talk about how to work with the parts of ourselves we'd rather avoid, what to do when we shut down, shrink, or feel overwhelmed, and why true growth comes from learning how to relate to ourselves differently over time. Eric also shares practical tools for changing the meaning we assign to situations, building wise habits, and taking small steps that add up to a meaningful life. In this episode, you'll learn:  Why overnight transformation is a myth, and what actually creates lasting change How small, consistent actions can build real momentum over time What it means to befriend the parts of yourself you want to avoid How awareness helps you catch patterns like shutting down, shrinking, or going blank in real time Practical ways to regulate your nervous system and stay connected to yourself in difficult moments Why having a simple phrase prepared can help when emotions take over How to rethink overwhelm and shift out of the feeling that life is happening to you A simple 3-question tool to help you challenge discouraging thoughts and choose a more supportive perspective Resources from this Episode: Eric's website Eric's podcast: The One You Feed Eric's book: How a Little Becomes a Lot: The Art of Small Changes for a More Meaningful Life MORE MICHELLE CHALFANT Website: https://www.michellechalfant.com Membership: The Adult Chair Collective https://www.michellechalfant.com/collective  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themichellechalfant Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheMichelleChalfant The Adult Chair® Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theadultchair YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Michellechalfant

    504: When a Physicist Met God: Seeing Reality Through the Heart | Dr. David Clements

    In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. David Clements for a deep, mind-expanding conversation about consciousness, intuition, and what happens when we learn to perceive life through the heart, not just the mind. David has an extraordinary background, with advanced degrees in mathematics and theoretical physics (including work in string theory), and he shares the awakening that shifted everything for him. We talk about remote viewing, out-of-body experiences, and why David believes human beings have far more perceptual capacity than most of us have been taught to access. We also explore his perspective on the sacred heart, the "infinity point gateway," and what he calls Infinite Source Intelligence as a direct inner connection available to all of us. In this episode, you'll learn:  How David's journey moved from left-brain physics into a lived experience of consciousness and energetic perception What remote viewing is, how it works, and why his first experience changed his entire worldview Why I believe children naturally have access to expanded perception, and how we often "train" it out of ourselves as we grow up The difference between mind-centered living and heart-centered intelligence, and why the heart is a unifying, harmonizing intelligence Why so many people feel like their identity is dissolving right now David's perspective on why painful things happen in the world, how free will fits in, and why he sees "love" as an intelligence, not a fluffy concept Resources from this Episode: Infinite Source Creations (David's main site): infinitesourcecreations.com Meditation #14: Beginning the Opening of Your Infinity Point Meditation #15: Preparing Heart Fields for Deeper Source Intelligence Connection   MORE MICHELLE CHALFANT Website: https://www.michellechalfant.com Membership: The Adult Chair Collective https://www.michellechalfant.com/collective  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themichellechalfant Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheMichelleChalfant The Adult Chair® Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theadultchair YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Michellechalfant
