WITH LOVE, DANIELLE

What do you think of when you consider "being resilient"? Hold that thought. Resilience has everything to do with heart intelligence. You can't ADAPT TO THE PRESENT unless you are connected to your own capacity to Love . You can't create a better future if you can't accept the present. I know it may seem counterintuitive but nothing changes until we get up close and accept it for what it is, for w...

Who's in for a Loving Kindness Practice? My man and I do this together to relax. Sometimes we use it to start Team D meetings. This WITH LOVE, DANIELLE episode is essentially a reminder that you are MADE of Love. Come back whenever you need it. Daily would be good.

The ego's favourite hiding place is… You ready? In personal-development workshops! Self-helpers and spiritual seekers really know how to strive, and striving is classic ego-ing. Being on the path can appear to be anything but arrogant or self-serving. Philosophies of peace spoken softly. Self-sacrifice. And it all looks great in stretchy yoga pants. I'm body positive. I'm a meditator. I'm journali...

I have been wanting to talk very specifically about the ego for a while… This is it. Helloooo, egooooo!  Simple: the ego is the unhealed part of us. Or more succinctly, the ego is the way our unhealed self acts.  That's it. We don't have to banish it, mollify, or suppress it. Why would we?! The ego is our creation! It's one of your thought babies. It's just looking for love. And integration. Here'...

You are the soul that owns the house you live in. This is a mighty useful metaphor for understanding the concept of our Soul… body temple… energy… spirit… what we attract… nervous systems… hard wiring… All those terms that are jangled around in our wellness space. I have a beautiful breakdown for us that can help keep our human-holiness in perspective. It starts like this, "The house is the analog...

My last book was  The Desire Map . Back then, my life was guided by the question,  "How do I want to feel?"  I built my career on that. But I began to notice that even if I wasn't experiencing my core desired feelings, I was still in touch with a greater purpose. Temporary unhappiness didn't hold me back from helping a friend or feeling close to The Divine. A new question emerged. " What do I want...

There's tolerance. And it's obviously better than  intolerance . But there's often some kind of settling beneath it. And then we move up the spiral to  Acceptance . A definite improvement but… Let's really expand to the highest destination if possible:  HONOUR. We honor our contrasts and our mutual freewill. It's a huge stretch when we're frustrated with other people's choices. We don't have to co...

I'm breaking tradition on my one woman podcast to introduce you to someone who I think is an earth angel:  Randy Watson, founder of  Ally Global Foundation . Everytime I meet with Randy I leave feeling shocked and hopeful in equal measure. Ally Global helps survivors of human trafficking find healing  through safe housing, education, and aftercare.  A request:  PLEASE LISTEN . Learn with me.  I've...

Astral body, mental body, auric field… nervous system… sound system… What's it all mean, really? I have a very simple breakdown for these things of monumental importance to our wellbeing. All things I wish I knew more about when I was twenty, eating New Age books for breakfast and generally avoiding Mother Nature. In this short episode we're going into: Explanations of astral body, mental body, em...

There are times to go to the mat for what you believe in. And… in my experience… MOST of the time…  disengaging from duking it out  is a very very good idea.  Maybe even the BEST idea.  For your nervous system, for world peace. And it's the hardest move. Because  the fear-mind really loves to prove who's right or wrong  and it loves to win in court—whether that court is an online chat about who sh...

There's so much that we want good n' GONE.  But here's the thing:  nothing is leaving your life or your thought patterns until you give it the  light of your consciousness —your love . You're not condoning more pain or poor behavior, but you're moving into a greater presence with it. And so the grip starts to relax, and both you AND the dynamic (or person or circumstance) can truly peace out. Ever...

Why do we do meditations on the Full Moon ? What's the "dark of the moon?" Does… it have anything to do with Pink Floyd? Is the moon "feminine" energy and the sun "masculine" energy? And why should we pay attention to this at all? This is my pragmatic-as-possible perspective on the super woo and super misperceptions about our relationship to the sun + moon—and why we should be very mindful about t...

In the personal development realm, discussion around Forgiveness tends to focus on us Forgiving the other person for what they apparently did. But what about asking for Forgiveness? And, if I may, I want to take that a step further and talk about asking for Forgiveness from the person you think owes YOU an apology. In this episode of With Love, Danielle (#42), I'm going to tell you a personal stor...

The activities that we do most habitually create the deepest grooves in the mind. All that repetition gets us hooked on the behaviour––that could be a good thing, could be a bad thing. It depends on what the behaviour is. Then there are the times in our lives when we bust out of habits and we do something new. What I'm interested in talking about is the motivation beneath the "new things" we try....

It's fairly easy to conceive of a collective consciousness that is loving. Essentially, people who are compassionate, kind, uplifting to the world. They're everywhere. When we think of this light, we tend to see it as a collective phenomenon. Now let's consider the "shadow" of humanity. When we as individuals are not feeling "uplifting" or particularly high vibration––when we're in our own despair...

Let's take a break from shadow work and relationship healing to tawk about tawkin' ––in public...

In this episode I explain: Why I never over prepare before I speak Why I DON'T "pump myself up" with motivational high energy before a talk  Why connecting with...

Harmlessness as a virtue –– as an embodied energy, may be one of our most demanding calls as a species. It's a commitment to the Universal Truth that can be hard to uphold. It's tempting to wish harm on the harmful. The shadow self defines justice by metrics of punishment. But Harmlessness… harmlessness is the way our Divine Nature pursues justice. We speak Truth –– without superiority hooks, or m...

When we pray for the strength to protect others, I believe that we magnetize more Light into our lives, that inclusive prayer has extra sway in the universe. Because it's universal law–to give is to receive. A very powerful prayer for these times is the Shantideva Prayer. It helps impress on our psyches that WE ARE TOGETHER in everything, in all life's experiences. From that heart center, our perc...

What if we didn't expend so much energy being in "protection mode"? What would that free up? Protection is often necessary. But there's another posture that can be more energizing. What if we held the belief that love is our greatest protection? In this micro podcast I explore the shift that moves us from protection mode to being the change.  Hosted on Acast.
