    12. Universes Born from Universes

    What if every ending is also a beginning? In this season finale, we explore theories and myths that imagine our universe not as the first — but as one in a long lineage of worlds. From black holes birthing baby universes to the endless bubbling of cosmic inflation, scientists, philosophers, and storytellers all wonder: could reality be recursive? We follow the spiral through physics, ancient cosmologies, and metaphor — tracing a grand genealogy of creation where each universe carries echoes of the one before. Tune in for a story of cosmic rebirth, nested realities, and the mysterious question of where it all begins.

    11. Ancient Survivors (Species Older Than Dinosaurs)

    Before the dinosaurs, before flowers bloomed, before the continents drifted into place — they were here. This episode traces the lives of Earth’s oldest living species: horseshoe crabs, jellyfish, cyanobacteria, and other ancient survivors that have endured for hundreds of millions, even billions, of years. What wisdom lives in such resilience? What might these species — so often overlooked — teach us about change, adaptation, and continuity? Tune in for a journey through deep time and humble brilliance.

    10. Time & Other Dimensions

    What is time, really? A ticking clock? A river we drift down? A spiral? A construct? In this episode, we peer into time’s many layers — from Einstein’s spacetime and time warps in myth, to the way memory, movement, and meaning shape our experience of it. We explore time not just as something to measure, but something to feel: elastic, personal, nonlinear. A force that both carries us forward and pulls us back. Tune in for a journey through time’s hidden dimensions — the scientific, symbolic, and poetic.

    09. DNA: The Spiral of Memory

    Every cell in your body carries an ancient story — one written in the spiral of your DNA. This episode explores the biology and poetry of genetic memory: how your body holds not just your blueprint, but echoes of your lineage, your ancestors, and the Earth itself. What invisible histories live within you? What are you carrying that you cannot see?

    08. The Poetry and Physics of Rainbows

    Rainbows 🌈 witnessing one feels like a sudden, unexpected gift ~ we exclaim with joy, point them out to those around us, and linger in their beauty for as long as we can. Their presence brings such AWE and presence, even to the most mundane moments. But something you might not know about rainbows ~ no two people ever see the same rainbow, even if you're standing right next to each other! Rainbows, which made of tiny droplets of water that bend and refract light, can only be seen when the sun, the rain, and the observer are in perfect alignment. In this episode of Tiny Portals, we explore the physics and poetry of rainbows ~ and dive deeper into the symbols and wisdom that these wonderful spectrums of light hold. ~~ This episode is paired with a soft, sweeping yin practice inspired by water, light, and color. We move through the chakra system — each energy center resonating with a hue of the rainbow — to invite alignment, flow, and inner radiance. You can find the practice at ⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠The Artist’s Temple⁠⁠⁠.

    07. The Wind Has No Home

    In this episode of Tiny Portals, we follow the wind — that wild, invisible force that touches everything, yet belongs nowhere. We explore wind as both a scientific phenomenon and a symbol of movement, freedom, and longing. What can we learn from something that’s always in motion? How do we balance our desire to roam with our longing for home? ~~ This episode is paired with a gentle, spacious yin practice available at ⁠⁠The Artist’s Temple⁠⁠ — designed to help you soften into breath, release what you no longer need, and open to the invisible currents of support moving through and around you.

    06. The Intelligence of Mushrooms

    In this episode of Tiny Portals, we explore the mysterious wisdom of mushrooms and the mycelial networks that connect entire ecosystems. We journey into the world beneath our feet ~ where death becomes nourishment ~ where forests are held in a communal, living net ~ where fungi demonstrate a kind of “silent intelligence” — making decisions, responding to their environment, and remembering what they’ve encountered before. This episode invites us to consider intelligence in new forms… and to trust the unseen support networks of life. ~~ This episode is paired with a slow, earthy yin practice available at The Artist's Temple -- designed to help you surrender into stillness, trust the unseen, and root into the quiet support systems holding you beneath the surface.

    05. Moonlight Doesn’t Come from the Moon

    In this episode of Tiny Portals, we explore the quiet power of reflection through the science and symbolism of moonlight. From the lunar surface’s soft glow to the mysterious beauty of earthshine, we consider what it means to be radiant without needing to shine from within. This episode is a meditation on receivership, feminine power, and the cycles of visibility and rest. A reminder that we are not less when we are soft, not broken when we wane. Like the Moon, we are always whole — even when we’re only partly seen. Let this be an invitation to welcome the light, rather than chase it. ~~ This episode is paired with a gentle yin practice available at The Artist’s Temple — designed to help you soften into stillness, attune to your inner cycles, and receive light in the quietest parts of yourself.

    04. The Deep Ocean

    Beneath the waves, far below the sunlit surface, lies a world of mystery — the deep ocean. In this episode of Tiny Portals, we journey into these dark underwater depths, where light cannot reach, yet life still flourishes in astonishing ways. From massive underwater mountain ranges to the life that blossoms without the sun, this episode explores what it means to thrive in the unseen. We reflect on the deep sea as both a physical and metaphorical realm — a place of resilience, regeneration, and hidden intelligence. A reminder that just because something is not visible, doesn’t mean it’s not alive, valuable, or sacred. Let this be an invitation to embrace the dark — not as absence, but as origin. ––– This episode is paired with a slow, grounding yin practice available at The Artist’s Temple — designed to help you soften into stillness, meet your own depths, and discover what’s waiting in the dark.
