  • Story Unbound with Pádraig Ó Tuama
    Jun 26 2024

    Pádraig Ó Tuama is a poet, theologian, and the host of The On Being Project's Poetry Unbound podcast. He is interested in story and storytelling, in the practice of reading ourselves into stories, and sometimes in reading our lives as stories. All of which can shake us us up in surprising ways.

    **If you like these adventures in consciousness, consider supporting our work with a paid subscription! at www.mindbodpod.com**

    In today’s episode, he reads from a sequence of poems he wrote called “Seven Deadly Songs” – sonic booms of verse that recreate some of the impossibly hard things that happened to Ó Tuama growing up gay in Ireland.

    Maybe we can feel ourselves into these poems too, feel the sounds of the words inside us, feel something – anger, sacrilege, indifference, recognition. We growl at God, because sometimes, in Ó Tuama’s words “the God character of our narrative needs to be undone in order for something new to open.”

    We talk The Lord of the Rings, N.K. Jemisin and world-building, about Tasha’s deep childhood desire to be Batman, and Ó Tuama’s deep childhood desire to be Wonder Woman!

    What questions can we ask of our stories that will take us deeper into them?

    Let us know in the comments!

    --------------

    Then join us for the Afterparty video: In which Jeff says he feels dumb, and poetry is hard, and Tasha says reading a poem is like watching a gas cloud condense into a planet. We talk about the practice of finding yourself in the landscape of a story, and also of finding story in the landscape of your life. Then, we talk about prayer. Tasha recites a childhood prayer in German, and Jeff exclaims, “Ezekiel comes through with $10,000!” 😄

    That’s all for now! Thanks for tuning in & see you next week.

    Love always,

    🧘🏽‍♀️ Tasha & Jeff 🧘🏼‍♂️

  • Self-Compassion (& Hip Hop) for Young People with Ofosu Jones-Quartey
    Jun 19 2024

    This week, we welcome the multi-talented Ofosu Jones-Quartey, a meditation teacher, author, and hip-hop artist. This discussion is so fun! It starts with how to share meditation and mindfulness with young people – how to stay real and relatable. Then gets into the role of the artist, creativity, and what it means to connect to your actual voice.

    We do 2 practices: the first is a self-compassion practice that ends with Ofosu singing! And that leads to a second practice: an actual song - a beautiful (it made Jeff cry) hip-hop track called “Avalo” that features the voices of Ofosu’s wife and daughter. Ofosu plays the full music video for us. Definitely worth checking out the whole video episode!

    How do we make being kind to ourselves an accessible practice, while also acknowledging (in Ofosu’s own words) “how stupid it can sometimes feel”?! Good to figure this out, since we’re talking to ourselves all the time anyway.

    Relatedly, how can you integrate meditation into your art practice without it coming off as corny or performative? We explore the challenges and rewards of being both a meditation teacher and an artist and how both Ofosu and Tasha negotiate these roles in public.

    Then join us for the Afterparty over on www.Mindbodpod.com!

    In this Afterparty your hosts, Tasha the Amazon and Jeff the Non-Amazonian, continue to discuss navigating being both an artist and a meditation practitioner. We talk high-brow/low-brow, spiritual materialism, and authentic artistic expression. Then we say these phrases, not in this order: “You don’t talk about Tantra - you do it!” “Take your demon and stick it in someone else’s nut sack!” and “Tank-top, nice shirt, put in the work!”

    That’s all for now! Thanks for tuning in & see you next week.

    Love always,

    🧘🏽‍♀️ Tasha & Jeff 🧘🏼‍♂️

  • How to Communicate with Mudita Nisker and Dan Clurman
    Jun 13 2024

    Welcome Mudita Nisker and Dan Clurman, authors of Let's Talk, An Essential Guide to Skillful Communication. Mudita and Dan have been teaching people how to communicate effectively for over 40 years, so there is serious wisdom in this episode. As Mudita points out, changing how you communicate can change your entire way of perceiving and relating to others. It is a profound practice, and it’s one each of us is already involved in, so we may as well get better at it!

    With that in mind, the entire episode is really one long practice of communication, with Mudita and Dan reflecting back our own questions and habits. They skillfully unpack these key principles:

    * how to give feedback

    * loop communication and the art of becoming more aware of how we affect the other person

    * how to avoid “flooding” other people, and instead “chunk” your delivery

    * the life-changing skill of reflective listening as a way to understand another’s perspective and foster connection

    * positive intentions and the way this brings caring into the mix

    * the importance of “provisionality,” ie, using language that acknowledges the possibility of change

    * the skill of framing and how to work with emotionally triggering subjects

    * understanding whether to talk or listen in the first place!

    Communication shapes how we get along with others, how we achieve our goals, and ultimately is core way to add more peace and compassion into the world.

    Such a fun and bouncy conversation, like improvising with two jazz pianists.

    Thank you Mudita and Dan!

    -----------------------------

    Then join us at www.mindbodpod.com for The Afterparty:

    Communication is what we do, and it’s something many of us also do very poorly! In this Afterparty, we talk about the various unconscious crutches we use while hanging out with others and what it might look like to connect in a more open-ended way. We also riff on the way good conversation is a kind of agreement, a world we construct that we then get to play inside! This is very different than seeing language as a route to discovering what is objectively true.

    *In an effort to sustain our antics and continue paying our producer Timmy, the Afterparty will move behind ye old paywall…soon. Please join us if you can!

    That’s all for now! Thanks for tuning in & see you next week.

    Love always,

    🧘🏽‍♀️ Tasha & Jeff 🧘🏼‍♂️
