The Dream, The Date & The Broken Bra

Imagination is one of the greatest gifts that we as human beings have. With imagination, we can travel the world, imagine ourselves achieving our goals, create arts, write stories, and much more. Whereas each person possesses a certain degree of imagination, the degree by which this ability manifests in different people differs a lot. Some people can imagine clear mental images, and others can imagine only blurred images. However, this ability can be improved with proper exercise; the sooner we start, the better it is for its development. This is why it is so essential promoting the use of imagination in kids. If you learn how to use your imagination from a young age properly, its power will be limitless.DAX to the MAX is a book written to inspire young children and give wings to their imagination while instilling and encouraging the habit of reading. This book aims to nurture the hidden SuperPower of Imagination that young children have often not learned to tap into and to make them aware that anything is possible when we add intention to our thinking. In this episode of The Dream, The Date & The Broken Bra, I am joined by Scott Feld and his son Dax Feld.

Did you know that stress is considered one of the most significant health issues worldwide? That’s true, stress. Whereas not all forms of stress are harmful when it comes to chronic stress, it can cause severe damage to our body. In our daily lives, we are constantly bombarded by information and triggers that overstimulate our nervous system. How can we return our bodies to a calm state in this overwhelmed environment? The key is to learn how to be present to ourselves, discover our intrinsic value, and focus on our mental wellness. Mental wellness it's not about happiness; It's not about the absence of mental illness. Mental wellness comes from feeling balanced, connected to others, and ready to meet life's challenges. All of this goes hand-in-hand with physical health. Your emotional health can improve when you eat well, get enough sleep, and stay active.In this episode of The Dream, The Date & The Broken Bra, I am joined by Dr. Lindsey Elmore.

Life is a journey, not a destination. For years I thought I had to follow specific rules and steps to succeed in life and that if I couldn’t accomplish them, my value as a human being would decrease. Everything changed when I finally awakened to the truth that this was just an illusion. My life journey shouldn’t follow pre-established rules or paths, but it should be free to unfold in my own time and space. This realization was life-changing for me, and I started my own awakening journey. I stopped following what others wanted me to do, listened to my soul, and evolved into my genuine self. Awakening journeys are fundamental for discovering our true purpose in life. They can be scary, but they will bring us to a position of self-empowerment and worth. There are no rules on what you should do to start your own journey; some people use traditional methods like therapy and meditation, and others choose alternative methods like plant medicine. Your awakening journey is a call. Follow yours. In this episode of The Dream, The Date & The Broken Bra, I am joined by Michelle Sorro. Michelle is a TV host turned heart-centered entrepreneur and transformational trainer. She's the host of the fire and soul podcast, co-founder of the podcast accelerator, and the founder of soul circles, her most recent endeavor.

Have you ever thought of taking a break from your daily life and traveling the world with just your backpack? Since I read for the first time the book Eat, Pray and Love, I have always dreamt of this possibility. Leaving everything behind, packing the essentials, and just being with yourslef while exploring the world has become a way for numerous people to rediscover themselves. While I haven’t been able to accomplish this dream of mine yet, I recently reconnected with a childhood friend who had this life-changing experience by making a pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago, one of the most popular pilgrimage routes in the world. The Camino de Santiago is a collection of European pilgrim routes that finish in Santiago de Compostela, Spain. Pilgrims walk between 7 and 30 days to receive their Compostela or certificate of completion. Many reports that the Camino is an incredible experience and opportunity to disconnect and experience a slower daily life with few modern interruptions.In this episode of The Dream, The Date & The Broken Bra, I am joined by Megan Eddy.

Did you ever find yourself at a point where you couldn’t let the past go, and stress and judgment took over your life? I'll tell you a secret; you are not alone. Sometimes life puts us through difficult situations, and our bodies’ first response is to react to it, find a solution, and move forward. We are so conditioned and patterned to constantly be moving and doing things, getting stuff done, that it can be challenging to take a moment to stop, be present and breathe. This is when learning to practice mindfulness can make a difference in our lives.Mindfulness is the essential human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we’re doing, and not overly reactive or overwhelmed by what’s happening around us. Mindfulness is a quality that every human being already possesses; it’s not something you have to conjure up. You just have to learn how to access it.In this episode of The Dream, The Date & The Broken Bra, I am joined by John Abate. John is trained and qualified to teach MBSR (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction) through the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Center for Mindfulness and Integrative Studies. He teaches Mindfulness and Meditation workshops throughout the country to individuals, groups, and corporations through his organization, Mindful Foundations. Throughout this episode, John shares his personal path of discovering his mindfulness practice, the bike accident that changed his life, and the best ways to cultivate a daily self-care practice. I can’t wait for you to be inspired by this conversation.In this Episode, You Will Learn:John’s move from California to Connecticut (05:14)John’s lifechanging bike accident (20:33)Why John decided to teach Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (23:04)Be present without judgment (35:42)Live with grace (49:51)Slow down and not react (52:45)John’s MBSR 8 weeks course (1:01:02)Connect with John Abate:WebsiteMindfulness InstagramPersonal InstagramFacebookLet’s Connect:FacebookInstagramEmail

Have you ever wondered why when you feel love in your body, you find yourself happier and more relaxed? The answer is simple. It’s just a matter of hormones. When the “love hormone” oxytocin is released in our bodies, it also stimulates endorphins to release in your body. Endorphins are the so-called “happy hormones,” and they are powerful pain relievers. So the more love you have, the less pain perception you will experience and the happier you will be. Imagine you being okay with yourself. Imagine allowing yourself to feel again. This is what Tantra and the love hormone are about. Amplify love means being available emotionally to all the sensations that you're feeling and accepting everything about yourself. In this episode of The Dream, The Date & The Broken Bra, I am joined by Michelle Alva. Michelle is a very passionate sex love and intimacy coach. She is also the creator of the Alva method, an approach of self-discovery that integrates modern science and ancient wisdom practices to educate and empower individuals on how to reset and calm their nervous system and heal from emotional pain in the body with minor effort. Throughout this episode, Michelle shares her journey of healing from past trauma, what the Alva method is all about, and how self-love is the most potent medicine.
