It’s so simple, but it’s not easy!   Mindfulness is paying attention to what is happening right now - thoughts, emotions, sensations in your body, distractions around you - and just noticing it, without judgment. Normally when we get distracted, the thoughts or emotions take over our awareness and we lose focus and get out of the present moment.    And why does this matter? Cause we are missing our lives - we are missing what is important and are not able to easily sit with what is hard, or just be with what is. Mindfulness is a skill and practice that works! It helps you live a more full and present life, allowing for greater presence, compass

Their credentials span much deeper than you’d think! With a background in finance and investigative journalism, Tod was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize and Emmy Award. Peter’s background includes Positive Psychology, architecture and athletics; these guys are the real deal! Their approach -- which combines practical and mystical Jewish wisdom (and yet in our interview is taught with a secular approach) with Positive Psychology –- has helped hundreds of cou

How do you create new boundaries? What is it supposed to look like?   In this fun, insightful and important conversation with Elise Schuster and Francisco Ramierez, we openly talk about all the things that people are likely feeling, but not knowing how to say it. And they are the perfect people to be guiding us...both have Master’s in Public Health and are passionate about talking with people openly about sex and their relationships. Whether it is learning how to have a hard conversation about the whereabouts of someone you’ve recently started dating (cause now, it’s not just about safety regarding STI’s; it’

Teaser: the way men have been socialized to be successful has not given them the skills to be great husbands; it’s not their fault but it is their responsi

As a therapist, author of 16 books (so far!) and founder of MenAlive, Jed has delved into the field of masculinity. He is dedicated to teaching men how to heal men from their detachment of their emotional experiences to allow them to be more involved in their own lives, as well as more connected to their loved ones. Some of Jed’s wel

This interview was actually part of our Surviving to Thriving free online summit, in which you can still access the 30 amazing interviews! This interview was too good not to share on multiple platforms!!   Emily brings simple, practical and yet awesome tools on how to shift your mindset, relationship and ultimately your abundance when it comes to your money and success, especially right now when times are uncertain. If you struggle with abundance, or with how to get out of old, outdated patterns of thinking about money, Emily will help to change that for you!    To learn more about Emily, visit: https://ww

It was such an inspiring interview that I knew I needed to have more platforms for it to be heard.   Congressman Tim Ryan is in his 18th year of serving in the U.S. Representatives in northern Ohio, where he has made it his passion and his purpose to heal America. Years ago he discovered mindfulness as a personal practice and has brought the tools of mindfulness into his professional leadership. Not only has he created mindfulness programs within Congress, including meditations and training, but he is committed to bringin

While some suffer more than others,especially now during this pandemic, no one is immune from feeling their emotions a bit more strongly. In this episode, I talk about the various ways that we can use our challenges as points of growth; and to break an assumption many people are having, this does not mean that you necessarily have to go learn a new language or have a huge project accomplished at the end of quarantine. Perhaps the best way for you to thrive right now is to slow down and just practice self-care. And to kick

There is no one definition of what it means to have mental health and yet it is so easy to get stuck in unhealthy habits and patterns in reaction when feeling “negative” emotions. To me, mental health is not the absence of “negative” emotions such as anger, sadness, fear, anxiety, depression (or so many more…); it’s the ability to see, name, and sit with the emotion that is arising and not reacting to it, pushing it away or being in resistance or denial of it. I talk about the many areas in our liv

We talk about love, sex, intimacy, communication, dating in quarantine, oh, and peanut butter! He has an honest, straightforward and fun energy in giving people advice on how to thrive in partnership, and shares his #1 tip that he gives to everyone he works with. It is: “talk about the thing.” As Fred Rogers says, “everything mentionable is manageable” and Shaun brings this wisdom to help uncover the root of where couples and their intimacy gets stuck. If you want to thrive in your relationship (current or future!) you won’t want to miss this episode.   Learn more about Shaun: Shaun Galanos is a love coach, host of The Love Drive podcast, and lives with his partner and his dog in Montreal, Can

The majority of our conversation revolves the topic of suicide, as we both have a close relationship to it; my dad commit suicide when I was 10, and her mom has attempted - unsucessfully - 9 times. We talk about the shame and the stigma that can easily come with the reality of someone close to you having either died or been close to it. Her mother’s experience has given her great compassion to work with teenagers who are suicidal, and she knows the value of giving them a safe place to talk about their thoughts, emotions, and even intentions. In addition to her important work with teenage suicidality, Lindsay shares that her favorite tip in the book co-authored, The

Especially at this time of the coronavirus, these tools and perspectives are profoundly powerful as we not let our emotions define us, while learning how to strengthen the mind to be kinder to ourselves, as well as actively creating the silver lining that can come from this time in our lives. The silver lining starts with asking ourselves, “what is the next good thing I can do in the next 30 seconds that will be kind to myself?” He believes that emotions are a terrible barometer for how we are feeling, and it’s more important what we do with those emotions. Right now we are all getting time to practice this new response pattern that can serve us now, and when life returns to our

The title says it all, and in fact, what a serendipitous time for my interview with guest Mike Robbins, who just authored a book by this same title. While the focus of the book is not surviving a pandemic, the tools in which we can come together and rise stronger are a universal theme that we talk about. Covering areas of how to get through all that we are experiencing right now, I am sure that you’ll find this episode just at the right time to gain extra insight, tools, mindfulness and awareness, along with the reminder that together we can be stronger. Mike is a renowned speaker and writer, always sharing prolific ways in which everyday experiences can create moments of wisdom and growth.   Link to join my Journey Forward Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/173854486658557/?hc_location=ufi   Learn more about Mike: Mike Robbins is the author of five books, including his latest, We're All in This Together: Creating a Team Culture of High Performance, Trust, and Belonging. He's a sought-after spea

In this episode, I talk with Francis Piche, who has made it his life’s work to focus on resilience and mindset. I love the definition he shares, that resilience isn’t necessarily about “bouncing back” after adversity, but rather, it’s about how you “bounce forward”. We all have an opportunity to choose our response to what curveballs life throws at us, and mindset, along with the framework of tools will help you to get there. Francis shares many aspects of how to bring more resilience into your life and the power that it can have on you, including how to attain lasting happiness. At a time that the world is craving healing, it feels like we are all going to be put to the test of our own resilience, so this feels like a timely, and timeless, topic.   To join the Journey Forward Facebook group where you can receive daily meditations and mindfulness tools with Joree:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/173854486658557/?hc_location=ufi   To learn more about Francis: Francis Piché is the host of The Resilience Eleme

I believe that we are being called upon by the Universe to slow down and reflect upon how we’ve been living our lives, and choose a new, more intentional way of being. For some, this is like a gift of time; for others, it’s been the very thing they’ve been living distractedly and defending against. Regardless, now is the time to face what’s hard to face, and choose how we can best be during these uncertain times. In this episode, I talk about the various aspects of how to integrate tools of acceptance, allowing, being present (and more!), and how these are the very tools to get us all through these universal challenges we are facing as a humanity.   If you are needing extra support right now, please email me at joree@joreerose.com   Some links I mention in the episode:   Body Scan meditation: https://joreerose.com/bodyscanmeditation/?fbclid=IwAR3GH7mN_vRgCWijXGINO0pwwanvQj0i2f3eWnBBkaynHBTRGqBJkzgozzk   Link to join my Journey Forward Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/173854486658557/?hc_locat

In light of the coronavirus, this is going to be the first of many episodes in which I’ll be offering you tools to manage your overwhelming emotions at this time of unprecedented worldwide pandemic and self-quarantining.   It’s only natural for us all to be experiencing some degree of anxiety, fear, sadness, loss, confusion, overwhelm during this time. There is so much unknown, there are so many plans that we’ve had to cancel or postpone, there is loneliness, isolation and of course our emotions will be along for the ride. Having tools to know what to do when these emotions start to take over will be more helpful now than ever. In this episode, I interview psychotherapist Hilary Jacobs Hendel who guides us through a framework known as the change triangle to map where our emotions are, and how to notice when our inhibitory emotions (such as anxiety, shame and guilt) or defensive emotions (such as depression, resistance, addiction, denial, etc…) are blocking us from feeling our core emotions (joy, sadness, fear

In this episode, Andrew Nance talks about his passion for bringing mindful creative play to kids in schools. With a previous long-term career in theater, Andrew has developed programs to bring into schools teaching mindfulness through various aspects of the creative arts. He explains ways that parents can incorporate some of these practices with their kids at home, and the benefits received through the creative process for tapping into their emotions, their breath and their body. Every kid (and parent!) could learn how to utilize these tools for not only emotional regulation, but to deepen one’s own self-awareness, presence and creativity. This is really a beautiful episode!   Andrew’s Bio: Andrew Nance is the Founder and Lead Trainer for Mindful Arts San Francisco (MASF). Additionally, he offers trainings and assemblies around the globe for libraries, schools, and school districts to provide the principles of mindfulness to students and staff. His mindfulness training comes from Mindful Schools, Spirit Rock

Yeah!! This episode marks my 1st full year complete of having my podcast and I wanted to do not only an episode of reflection, but of some of the roadblocks that I’ve overcome to reach and accomplish my goals over the past year. I could have had so many things stopping me: not being ready, not knowing how, feeling self-doubt, or believing old stories of “I can’t do that.” And I chose to look past all of those and instead focus on my vision, my passion and my impact I could make on others by providing an outlet for my voice. So as you listen, I ask you to reflect on your past year, make note of your accomplishments and what you are grateful for. And then, coming from that positive mindset, ask yourself what your roadblocks are moving forward, and let those simply be moments to pause and gain clarity, rather than stop and lose momentum. I believe in you! You got this!! (Whatever this may be…) :)   And for being a loyal listener, I’m offering a free gift of my online course titled Redefine Yourself – it is a sho

How often are you so busy with the minutiae of your life that you feel like you are missing out on what is most important? Life is not going to slow down on it’s own, so it’s up to us to find ways to beat the busyness of everyday life with managing careers, parenting, relationships, the house, self-care...the list goes on!
