    866. Navigating the Loneliness Epidemic w/ Sah D’Simone

    866. Navigating the Loneliness Epidemic w/ Sah D’Simone

    Happy Wednesday Heal Squad! Welcome back to part 2 of my conversation with spiritual revolutionary Sah D’Simone. In today’s episode, we delve into the importance of connection, the loneliness epidemic in today's society, and the teachings in his latest book ‘Spiritually, We’. In our discussion Sah shares the transformative power of shifting our mindset from 'I' to 'we' and some shocking statistics on loneliness, from the increasing rates of suicide to the lack of meaningful relationships reported by many. Sah also highlights the vital role of showing up, having empathy, and addressing the need for connection as a means to combat addiction and alleviate chronic loneliness. As Sah said, relationships are sweet labor, and after listening to our conversation you will be inspired to prioritize connection and nurture meaningful relationships in your life.

    Healers & Heal-Liners

    We’re all 5 decisions away from being homeless.

    Statistics show that in the US 60% of young adults are experiencing serious loneliness.

    2 out of every 5 Americans report that their relationships are not meaningful.

    Friendship is a nutrient that is vital for our well-being. It is so vital for our well-being that it shows up in our bodies the same way a hunger cue would.

    The antidote to addiction is not sobriety, it’s community.

    865. Connection is the Cure w/ Sah D’Simone

    865. Connection is the Cure w/ Sah D’Simone

    Hey Heal Squad! Welcome to part 1 of my deeply insightful and transformative conversation about grief with spiritual revolutionary, Sah D'Simone. Sah shares the experience of losing his mother to cancer and the profound impact it had on him and his view on being human. We discuss the lack of trauma-informed care that is so normalized in hospitals, particularly when it comes to death, and how this motivated him to become a chaplain to help change how we discuss and approach death. We explore the grief-phobic nature of our culture and society's discomfort with discussing death, the importance of acknowledging the severity of grief, and the significance of ritualizing our grief. Sah offers valuable insights on supporting someone who is grieving since this is an inevitable part of life. 

    This conversation is a must-listen for anyone who wants to learn how to navigate the complexities of grief and death. Make sure to come back for part 2 of my conversation with Sah where we learn more about the loneliness epidemic that is plaguing us, the importance of friendship, and so many more insights on the power of connection covered in his book ‘Spiritually, We’. 

    Healers and Heal-Liners

    Grief will always be around and death is always going to happen.

    Sometimes the miracle isn’t vitality and health of the body, the miracle is an easeful passing.

    We have to meet the discomfort by choosing to be uncomfortable with the mourner. 

    We are prioritizing the wrong things in life. We are forgetting that connection is the cure. We are forgetting that we can not do this thing alone.  

    You have to ritualize your grief. You have to explore your grief. You have to do something with it.

    Regular Guy Friday ep. 167 The Forgiveness Process

    Regular Guy Friday ep. 167 The Forgiveness Process

    Hello Regular Guys and Gals, we fooled them again, and made it through the week to arrive at the only day of the week that's yours! How religious ceremonies like baptisms, Bar Mitzvahs, and such can give meaning to life and help you ascend. How forgiveness is the key to successful relationships and good health. How the main regret of elderly persons is the lack of self-forgiveness. How forgiveness is healing but a long process, not easily achieved. How you may not be honoring and even dwelling upon the injustices you've incurred enough. How doing so may very well be the means to gain one's self worth but also be the first step toward forgiveness. RGF bonus: Why Dolly Parton won't need to return after this life and the genesis of her hit 'I Will Always Love You.'
