One Mind Live Pre-Session Podcast

This episode was originally broadcast Sep 30, 2016 Today’s a black moon! Since we’d never heard that term before, we had to look it up — and wow, was there a lot of interesting info. Some of it was positive and some was…kind of creepy actually. As usually, we sorted our way through it (similar to the way the End of Days predictions imagine the “goodies” being so...

This episode was originally broadcast Sep 23, 2016 We couldn’t believe we’d never talked about fear in a pre-session so we decided to rectify that with this one. It’s such a broad topic that we barely scratched the surface. We did have a lot of fun, though. Why is it that the most serious or fraught topics bring out the clown in us? (Not the scary clowns under the bed that still...

This episode was originally broadcast Sep 16, 2016 Is time speeding up for you? Is time slowing down for you? Is time just all over the place? Listen in as we discuss the weird shifts we’re all feeling and compare them to what’s supposedly happening in “the field” at the moment. Is this really that lift-off we’ve been hearing was imminent, or do we all just need more...

This episode was originally broadcast Sep 9, 2016 EFT is in the air – and on the airwaves, if you saw those Olympic Athletes tapping their way to triumph on TV during the recent Rio games. It’s also in the news, with the government of Slovenia legislating a 75% reimbursement for Clinical EFT training for ALL the country’s educators (from kindy teachers allllll the way up) and the...

This episode was originally broadcast Sep 2, 2016 Are you grieving someone or some thing? In this pre-session chat we delve into the subject of grief. We look at how we feel it, what it means and how your spirituality can change your experience of grief. How do you grieve? Do you share your sorrow publicly or do you show the world a brave face and keep your pain to yourself? We’d love to hea...

This episode was originally broadcast Aug 26, 2016 Why are we so scared of tigers, here at One Mind Live? Could it be our brain wrinkles?…Okay now let’s be serious. Yes, we do discuss tigers and brain wrinkles in this pre-session – but it’s because we’re discussing that prickly subject: anxiety. We share how we feel it and how we deal with it, how it can be your body...

This episode was originally broadcast Aug 26, 2016 Flying toes, healing trees, ticks, laughter and tiredness. Find out what all this has to do with the energies swirling around at the moment. Do you feel like you are slowing down? Speeding up? Or are things slowing down or speeding up around you? About our Pre-Sessions: Every week, for 15 minutes or so before we began our group meditation broadcas...

This episode was originally broadcast Aug 19, 2016 We have a feeling this is going to be a multi-part chat. The subject of “mother” is too big to even overview, let alone cover, in 15 minutes. But in this chat we at least crack open the hatch door and peer in – and, surprisingly, we come up with two pretty good strategies for dealing with your mother-related pain which just might...

This episode was originally broadcast Aug 12, 2016 Part II of the discussion we started last week, where we talked about triggers. In this chat, we go into a lesser-considered source of disturbance in the realm of daily experience: the quantum field that connects, surrounds and moves within all of humanity. How can a woman crying on the street in Iran cause you to yell at your partner in Australia...

This episode was originally broadcast Aug 5, 2016 Relationships…can’t live with ’em, can’t live without ’em. But when people’s triggers get activated and the he-said-she-said/he-said-he-said/she-said-she-saids start, it’s a downward spiral of warring wounded-children. But – how to stop it? Or, even better – how to prevent it in the first place?...

This episode was originally broadcast Jul 29, 2016 What does it take to open your heart? In this chat we start out talking about how meditation can be used to open our hearts – and we detour into how furry things can open our hearts – and then discuss how the ego can sometimes put resistance in the way of heart connections, with ourselves and others. As usual, we go from serious to sil...

This episode was originally broadcast Jul 22, 2016 Is STRESS getting you down? Have you been listening to the news, or reading distressing social media posts, or are you struggling with past traumas? Listen to today’s chat and get the lowdown on the “triune brain” from Naomi J as she explains what stress is, how your fight-or-flight response gets involved and what to do about it...

This episode was originally broadcast Jul 15, 2016 Today we each pulled a card from Esther Hicks and Abraham’s “Getting Into The Vortex” deck of inspirational cards. Though each card had a different message, as a whole, they described ways to create reality. To even discuss that subject, however, you have to first agree on what reality is. Which we did. Sort of. But we all agreed...

This episode was originally broadcast Jul 8, 2016 What’s a “thin place”, you ask? Stephen came in today, buzzing about a conversation he’d had with his daughter, Jasper, about thin places. It’s a Celtic term and it doesn’t mean catwalks, salad bars and narrow alleyways. Although, technically, ALL those places could be thin. To find out how, listen to this week&#...

This episode was originally broadcast Jul 1, 2016 What do not getting on a flight and composing music all have in common? They can both be the result of listening to your intuition! So we know it’s a valuable thing to do – but it can be one that’s easier said than done. What if the airline won’t let you take the next flight without paying all over again? What if you just ca...

This episode was originally broadcast Jun 24, 2016 In this pre-session we straddle the equator to discuss the meanings of an expectations for how to manage/cope with/survive this powerful whammy of a combo: Summer Solstice if you’re in the northern hemisphere and Winter Solstice if you’re in the southern hemisphere, ‘downundah’ with us! Listen in to hear how Naomi C describ...

This episode was originally broadcast Jun 17, 2016 We cover so much territory in this Pre-session, from Krishna to Tony Robbins. Listen along as we track the core essence of LOA (the Law of Attraction) as it pertains not only to attracting those we need into our lives but also in the way it makes those we need in our lives appear more attractive to us! During this chat Naomi C got “that scho...

This episode was originally broadcast Jun 10, 2016 It’s a term that gets thrown around alot – “I can’t deal with negative people” – but in this pre-session we take a closer look at what it really means to us to deal with so-called “negative people”, what is really going on in us that makes it hard to do it and what is really going on in us that makes...

This episode was originally broadcast Jun 3, 2016 We hear those words “love, honor and cherish” and “act honorably” and “honorable discharge” and the word “honor” (or, here in Australia “honour”) and don’t often reflect on what it really means so we do that in today’s pre-session. Just in time to honor our 2nd birthday in a wa...

This episode was originally broadcast May 27, 2016 What do you revere? Does reverence seem hierarchical to you? Do you avoid it or seek out the feeling? Some of us try to feel it but can’t. Today we discuss the whole idea of reverence, what it brings to our lives and our spiritual practice and how to access the feeling…and the angel in Stephen’s mother-in-law’s dementia war...

This episode was originally broadcast May 20, 2016 Nothing like the subject of getting pissed off to get us…laughing. Laughing about our human frailty and foibles. Today we talked about the whole sticky subject of getting triggered by others, what it’s like, what’s really going on with the ego, and – more importantly – what we can do about it. We ended up agreeing tha...

This episode was originally broadcast May 13, 2016 Do you hate routine or do you love it? And what part to do hate or love – the fact of the repetition or the things, themselves, that you have to repeat? Stephen came in to the studio with this one and the need to vent and rail against the insult to creativity and spontaneity that routine, at face value, is. But, as so often happens when we a...

This episode was originally broadcast May 6, 2016 Out your inner victim! In this pre-session, we talk about how, why and what it feels like to own that little sad voice that says “nobody appreciates me” and “bad things always happen to me” – and how to transform the victim into a victor. It’s all about empowerment…and, apparently, the Ice Age (you had to b...

This episode was originally broadcast Apr 29, 2016 It’s a numbers game and we’re thrilled to find ourselves at cool 100 after almost two years of weekly live meditation broadcasts. So, naturally, we examine why that number has meaning for us. Why 100 and not 97? Do numbers have vibrations? Is it about looking forward or about looking backwards? It comes down to time. We each have our o...

This episode was originally broadcast Apr 22, 2016 Morning Mindfulness practices past and present…How many of us begin the day with ‘blah!’ running out the door with our big to-do list, stress and our thoughts everywhere else but here. In this session, we explore some tools on how to bring mindfulness and sweetness to the beginning of the day, that spread to the rest of the day....
