Relate and Meditate Daisy Clementine

Season One Finale!

As we wrap up Season One of R&M, our host Daisy Clementine discusses in a solo episode the meditation she desperately needs as we head into Australian summer - the summer body meditation and all things body image and self esteem.

Daisy talks about how seeing bad photographs of yourself can impact your self-image and how having cute petite friends can make you feel like a giant and shift the reality of what you actually look like. Body image is a never ending rollercoaster and whilst there are positive, inclusive shifts being made within the media and fashion industries - there is a long way to go until we don't feel like there is one 'perfect' body to be 'achieved'.

We'll be back in early 2022 with Season 2 for more relatable conversations and niche meditations!

It will take max like 2 minutes and makes a huge difference. COVID has cast a shadow of mental health issues for people and so helping us reach more people that need some words of confidence is the best good deed of the day you could do for us 3

This weeks episode is a little bit different - it's our second to last ep in Series 1 and I chat to Laura Tilley, one of our resident meditation leads, all about her journey with meditation and how the process of creating Relate and Meditate has been for us both.

Whether you've meditated with us through the episodes or not, we hope this conversation (and this series!) makes you feel seen in all your relatable spirals.

Laura's business The Half Between - she is running a course in November which I'm signing up for if anyone wants to walk with me into the big 'scary' next step of finding a meditation practise.

Today’s episode is with prolific journalist who often uses her internet as a diary - Melissa Mason and is all about relationship anxiety  (kind of the extension and more ‘grown up’ way to talk about the ick). It’s something we have both been riddled with for years - even though i didn’t know it until very recently. 

Have you ever seen a couple on instagram and been like wow that’s goals why aren’t we like that? 

Or find yourself in a panic wondering if you’re with the person you’ll actually end up with?

Thought of moving in together making you freak the F out?

Ever seen the film the runaway bride and been like - yeah, i get it?

Then this episode is for you.

This weeks episode is what we've all needed at some time in our times - a spirit guide for going to Ikea. We spoke to Miranda Lorikeet after she'd just moved house and discussed her Ikea game plans, how impulsively putting together furniture and we settle the question about what the best snack is for your little reward at the end.

This is literally the most niche meditation we've ever made - and it's not even #spon. Ikea, if you want to send us some cinnamon scrolls, we'll be waiting.

Wondering if recycling is really even worth it?

Feeling powerless as we watch billionaires take off into space and we're trying to keep our carbon footprint down with a fkin keep cup?

Feel those 'um, is the world ending?' vibes on the regs?

This weeks conversation is with Tanzy Owen, a sustainability consultant with years of experience making film and TV sets more sustainable who has just launched her own buisiness - The Good Ways. Tanzy’s mission is to make sustainble business just ‘business’. We spoke all about climate anxiety which, after the earthquake today in Melbourne, I feel like what’s happening with the Earth is at the forefront of our minds right now. This conversation is for everyone - from full on eco warriors to people maybe more like myself who are still very much learning and working towards a more eco conscious lifestyle.

This weeks episode is with Michelle Banares - my absolute style icon, the coolest Reel maker and DEFINITELY not a regular mum. Mish has 2 crazy haired 2 year old called Zev and this week we spoke all about her anxieties as a new mum - particularly when it came to heading out into the world and tackling public transport with a pram and unpredictable tantrums. Mich and I have never actually spoken about her role as a mother so I loved this chat and all the real moments that came out of it - even if you’re not a mum, which I’m not, I know you’ll love this one.

- Have you ever tackled a pram solo in public?
- Does the thought of being pregnant terrify you
- Are you constantly like WTF am i doing and who is this child that lives in my house?

We got you.
