I've been podcasting for a full year! My first episode published on January 1st, 2025. On December 29, I published my 18th Episode and Season 1 finale.

The podcast is called The Integrated Self. Episodes are short (usually 5-20 minutes), casual, and conversational. So far it's been monologue, not interviews, and it's a place where I poetically share teachings and reflections and occasional music. Like the spiritual teachings that inspire me, my intention for the show is that it helps awaken awareness, insights, compassion, self-forgiveness, and more openness to love in you. The general theme: flowing with life.

I enjoyed making all these episodes, and the last one was a special kind of fun. The 18th episode is an experiment in a middle path, balancing linear-thinking left-brain and immediate-experience right-brain functions; it plays with the energy of distraction (what listening to a podcast can on some level be) and presence. It's part podcast entertainment, part guided meditation, and part silent self-reflective space for you! It's meditainment, or entertation. It references a few previous episodes, so I think this first "season" (episodes 1-18) makes for a nice arc, culminating in this final episode experiment.

If you listen to any of the shows, and especially #18, I'm so curious how it is for you. Let me know! Not if you like it or if you don't, or if you think it's good or bad, but how is YOUR experience with it? What happens for you while you listen? After? Don't just listen, but notice ;) . Message me here or at dan@integratedselfcounseling.org .

We each have a unique offering, unique genius, unique medicine needed for this time. This podcast has been one way I've been sharing mine. If you haven't heard it yet and you feel some connection to me (like if you've read this long of a social media post), try it out. Episode 1 is a short introduction, Episode 2 dives right into the heart of things. Follow the link below or in my bio to play it on its on page or "Listen On..." spotify, apple, amazon.

May it support your healing, your flow, and inspire your unique creative genius to shine in your unique and perfect ways.

Blessings on our journey,

Dan

New podcast episode in bio on opening to more of a relationship with Life. By pausing our usual time-filling activity. To open to the unknown adventure of what will arise, what will you feel, what crystalizes in your consciousness when you STOP. And listen.

This was a fun one to make, hope you enjoy it.

Forgiveness is the weapon of the Warriors of Love.

Forgiveness doesn't analyze people, actions, or events.

It's not personal.

It's a transpersonal love, it's THE Love at the heart of all life, moving through you and your experience of all things.

You can't turn it on, do, or perform it, because it's always on, it's always here.

You can only make yourself available to it, by feeling your experience without sending your energy into blame or shame.

Stay with your experience, stay with your heart's feelings and your body's sensations, and Forgiveness can come to and through you.

Not to let anyone out of accountability and responsibility, but to let Love support all our ability to take accountability and respond responsibly to the needs of life. Love helps, now and forever.

Imagine conflict as a way to bring you and the other person(s) closer, or closer to a mutually beneficial way of coexisting. Nonviolent Communication teaches a very simple, 4-step process of engaging in conflict in a healthy and connective way.

I just released two podcast episodes about it.
Part 1 explains the technique, short and sweet.
Part 2 goes deeper into the philosophy and even the spirituality I find at the heart of NVC. This is the longest episode I've recorded, I had a lot to say about it and I'm very excited by the concept, so here's a tiny teaser: Needs are the natural expression and movement of the essence of Life. This episode also explodes how focusing blame and resentment on another disempowers ourselves.

Take your power back! Honor your feelings and needs. Express them in "I" statements. 💙

My podcast is called The Integrated Self, link is in my bio.

Selfishness is one of the holiest things we can do. But the trick is that most of us aren't in touch with our true selves. We're identified with our wounds, and the limiting beliefs that result from them, and we're usually seeking short-term ways to cover those wounds up and avoid them.

When we allow our wounds to breathe in the open air, by looking at them and feeling them, then they are able to heal. They heal through the naturally healing power of awareness itself, and through the intuitive guidance that arises in the space of awareness, guiding us to what we're needing from ourselves and the universe. When we look into, contemplate, and feel our wounds, we don't need to cover them up and spend most of our life energy trying to escape from them.

When our identity can include our wounds as only small singular aspects of our self, then our story can include their healing process, and our identity can expand to include our gifts and our completely unique and original authenticity as much more fundamental aspects of who we are.

When we are in touch with these true expressions of ourselves, we will find our nature is to be a part of our world, and to contribute to the well-being of the worlds of which we are a part.

When we are in touch with our true self, not just our wounds and our strategies of avoiding them, selfishness is holy.

And even if we only sense a sliver of potential of that true self, the process of bringing healing to our wounds and doing what we need to do to realize and embody that true self more and more in our daily lives is also holy, holy, holy.

I'm very excited to announce a new 8-week group I will be hosting in Colorado in the coming season—Being Present: Embodying the Fullness of Life. This group is for anyone who would like a safe, trauma-informed container to connect with others interested in growth, learn and practice generative and healing ways of working with life challenges and suffering, and access more of your potential to be fully who you are.

The practice of being present, or what's called "Contact" in Gestalt Therapy, is perhaps the most fundamental ingredient in living a life of meaning, richness, and fulfillment. It also enables an organic healing and transformational force to flow in and through us, helping us progress in our personal and collective paths. If you'd like to hear more on that topic right now, I recorded a whole podcast episode on it called The Essence of Healing (link in bio).

The group Being Present will include guided meditations that work on different aspects of ourselves, experiential exercises to explore different qualities and capacities of being an individual and being in community, time for sharing and discussing what's alive for every group member, and working directly with what's most personally relevant as a group.

I hope you'll join us! Link in my bio for more info (or scan the QR code in the flyer), and message me if you'd like to join!

I'm not saying real problems aren't real problems. I am saying, when you're sliding on ice, turn into the skid. Your life and your feelings are the ice.

Timing and flow.

While I was going to get an item in my home, I was thinking to myself: when timing aligns with flow, magic happens.

As I bent down to pick up the item, I looked up to find myself at the exact position from where I could see the Crescent Moon shining brightly through a small window in the blackest night sky.

I took this photo, immediately after which a cloud covered the moon, and remained there for some time. Had I come here to get the item a moment later, I would not have seen the moon.

When timing aligns with flow, and when we're open to perceive and receive and allow it, magic happens.

I've released a few new podcast episodes, short poetic invitations into simple Being (episode 6) and your immediate body (episode 7). Check 'em out, they're fun and free ways for me to share my authenticity, with the prayer they help connect you with yours :)
