One Mind Live

This episode was originally broadcast Apr 1, 2016 I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you….and other mantras we here at OML have either gleefully discovered – or made up! That’s what we’re talking about in today’s pre-session chat. What is a mantra, what are the benefits, where do they come from? Find out now by clicking to listen to the replay&#823...

This episode was originally broadcast Mar 25, 2016 It’s Good Friday here in Australia as we contemplate what the meanings are, for us, of this “dark” day and the “light” day to come on Sunday. Our members hail from different religious backgrounds and foregrounds and Easter means different things to different people. To a lot of us it means…chocolate! But beyond...

This episode was originally broadcast Mar 18, 2016 No matter how hard Naomi C tried, she just could not rein in the silliness of Naomi J and Steve today. The topic was moving – how hard it is to move house and maintain some sense of presence and sanity amidst the chaos – and it wasn’t until 3/4 of the way through the pre-session that we realized we’d just been gossiping and...

This episode was originally broadcast Mar 11, 2016 We’ve just realized we haven’t talked much about this weird THING we do at the beginning of each One Mind Live weekly meditation – and that it might be time to touch on the subject in a little more depth. Click the play button to get the skinny on Tapping – why we do tap before each meditation, how not to do it…and re...

This episode was originally broadcast Mar 4, 2016 Belly laughs and goofing around during this pre-session chat – and a little ditty to boot! Naomi C tells us what the upcoming total eclipse has in store – not just this time but also what eclipses in general mean to our daily lives. And to our egos… About our Pre-Sessions: Every week, for 15 minutes or so before we began our group...

This episode was originally broadcast Feb 26, 2016 Arrgh! Not one of us has been sleeping well at night – not for days. Naomi Carling’s excuse is two small children but Stephen and Naomi J are usually head-hits-the-pillow sleepers. Not for the past 5 days, though. We are honestly perplexed. Is this some kind of cosmic upgrade symptom? Is it this super powerful full moon? Is it somethin...

This episode was originally broadcast Feb 19, 2016 We all try to make our decisions based on following our bliss, or our hearts, but how often is it the amygdala (the “fight or flight” part of the brain) that’s really running the show? And how can you tell the difference? In this pre-session, we tackle those and other questions you can ask yourself to know if fear is getting in t...

This episode was originally broadcast Feb 12, 2016 WOW! We LOVED having this special 45 minute pre-session chat with our special guest Lori Deschene, founder of tinybuddha.com and author of “Tiny Buddha’s 365 Tiny Love Challenges”. As one listener said “ you all made such important, interesting points – I wanted you to keep talking and talking! ” Well, we did go...

This episode was originally broadcast Feb 5, 2016 What a hard slog it’s been for many of us! Maybe you’ve been working on a project, maybe you’ve been moving towards resolution on an emotional issue, maybe you haven’t been conscious of any particular plan or goal – you’ve just been feeling EXHAUSTED because your subconscious has been toiling away in the backgrou...

This episode was originally broadcast Jan 29, 2016 We value intuition…we devalue intuition. We trust it. We don’t trust it. Sometimes it saves our bacon by nudging us away from harm. Sometimes it propels us towards joyful outcomes. And yet sometimes we are left doubting it’s even a “thing”. Maybe that’s when our reason is having a say. Listen to this pre-session...

This episode was originally broadcast Jan 22, 2016 Have you been doing your intentions right? There might be a right way…and a less right way. Maybe it’s better to think of it as a way and a more effective way. Find out by listening to this pre-session in which we discuss the two kinds and their different effects… About our Pre-Sessions: Every week, for 15 minutes or so before we...

This episode was originally broadcast Jan 15, 2016 What is authenticity? What does it mean to be truly authentic? The three of us get authentic with each other and ourselves in this pre-session chat as we discuss what the concept means to us, how important we think it is and why – and the difference between being authentic and being…antisocial! (How are those two things even connected?...

This episode was originally broadcast Jan 8, 2016 Blocks of chocolate, quarts of vodka, ego and sugar highs…What do these have to do with being yourself? We had lots of laughter during this topic. Even when we were talking about how we “put a lid” on ourselves in daily life, how we hold ourselves back (for better or for worse) and what that really means to us individually…...

This episode was originally broadcast Jan 1, 2016 Are you so focused on the year ahead that you haven’t done what it takes to finish clearing out the year behind? In this pre-session we discuss how to do that and why it’s important to leave 2015 behind so that 2016 can be all that it can be… About our Pre-Sessions: Every week, for 15 minutes or so before we began our group medita...

This episode was originally broadcast Dec 25, 2015 About our Pre-Sessions: Every week, for 15 minutes or so before we began our group meditation broadcast, we opened the mics so that our members tuning in for the session could listen in while we talked about what was going on for us personally and spiritually, and what trends we were noticing. It was a fun way to get everyone settled and prepared...

This episode was originally broadcast Dec 18, 2015 What is manifesting, how do you do it, and why should you do it? We dive in to this one with lots of different opinions – and experiences!… About our Pre-Sessions: Every week, for 15 minutes or so before we began our group meditation broadcast, we opened the mics so that our members tuning in for the session could listen in while we ta...

This episode was originally broadcast Dec 11, 2015 David Avocado Wolf posted “people who are spiritually minded tend to suffer from anxiety and depression more” and Naomi C shared it on her facebook page and Naomi J had a strong reaction to it and Stephen was split – and it turned into a really juicy discussion about the nature of spiritual people, the nature of sensitivity, the...

This episode was originally broadcast Dec 4, 2015 In this pre-session, you’ll hear our thoughts on meditation, on the difference between mindfulness and meditation and how Wayne Dyer and Deepak Chopra have inspired us in meditation. Do you ever feel meditation is a waste of time if you fall asleep? Or scold yourself if you get carried away with thoughts? Don’t worry! We discuss how the...

This episode was originally broadcast Nov 27, 2015 If you’re in America today then you might be thinking about your body – and how it’s going to react to that big celebratory meal. Is it going to be a fun experience of enjoying bounty or that extra helping of pumpkin pie going to trigger a self-loathing hangover of epic proportions? Whether or not you’re somewhere in the wo...

This episode was originally broadcast Nov 20, 2015 We all felt the world could use a big heart-shaped hug today so we opened the doors to allow non-members to listen in and join us for the live meditation. To ease in, we started our pre-session chat 30 minutes before, instead of the usual 15 minutes before, and the extra time allowed us to explore a range of heart-related subjects. We went from br...

This episode was originally broadcast Nov 13, 2015 Today we each picked a card from Naomi C’s very well worn Virtues Project deck. She got “Loyalty”, Naomi J got “Honor” and Steve got “Tact”. We then tried to figure out how the heck those virtues apply to our lives at present. That’s where it got fun… About our Pre-Sessions: Every week, for 15...

This episode was originally broadcast Nov 6, 2015 Okay, let’s be honest here. Have you ever whipped out your shadow at a dinner party? (FYI Steve says “Don’t do it”)…Lots of big laughs during this pre-session as we discussed affirmations, afformations and active labour. What does your shadow and whipping it out at a dinner party – or dragging your muffler on the...

This episode was originally broadcast Oct 30, 2015 This recent Super Moon was all about birth! So it’s kind of perfect that Naomi Carling’s new baby is due to arrive any day – and just as perfect in another way that Naomi Janzen’s 86 year old father is due any day to cross over to the other side, completing his journey in this life and to be reborn into a freer energetic st...

This episode was originally broadcast Oct 23, 2015 This one zigged and zagged! Naomi Carling started us off talking about the upcoming full moon and how it may affect your intimate relationships (ending some of them abruptly!), and that led to a discussion about the things that trigger us. Then that led to…okay, so there was no elegant transition. Naomi J just wanted to talk about her recent...

This episode was originally broadcast Oct 16, 2015 No one can accuse us here at One Mind Live of not keeping up with popular culture! In this pre-session we take a look at current Australian TV phenom “reality” show, “The Bachelorette” and discuss what it has to do with love – if anything (and you might be surprised) – and whether it’s helpful or harmful t...
