From the Heart with Rachel Brathen

Today’s episode is a tender one that was difficult to record. Rachel opens up about her fear of death. She discusses how this fear has shaped her throughout her life, from her childhood when it was formed, through motherhood, up until this very moment. And after a traumatic experience in her home and losing her entire flock of chickens - it seems death has been surrounding her a lot lately. 

But there is a truth that exists: there is no life without death. How can we navigate the uncertainty of life and still let go enough to enjoy it? How do we know when to listen to our intuition and act versus when to accept that we have no real control? Tune in for an episode that will break your heart open and remind you that while everyone dies - not everyone truly lives.

Let Go and Let God - Navigating Fear, Death, and the Uncertainty of Parenthood

In today’s episode, Rachel opens up about a big, beautiful expansion happening in her marriage right now. For the first time in a long time, Rachel is able to lean more into her feminine side. Her husband has been taking the lead, and she has actually been able to accept letting go of control. How did these changes come about? It wasn’t from nagging or expecting someone else to become a new person - it was from recognizing barriers Rachel had put up over her own heart.

Whenever we are struggling with something, we are quick to jump to external factors as the cause. But maybe we can’t rely on everyone else to change, and instead we have to recognize our own patterns in keeping people out. Tune in for a big episode of storytelling and finding change the only way it’s possible - through love.

Marriage, Barriers, and Dismantling The Wall Around Your Heart

In
 today’s episode, Rachel has just returned from a Path of Love Retreat,

third Path of Love experience, and they have all been the most 
transformational and healing journeys of her life. She comes home with a
 newly found understanding of herself and the world.

Rachel
 talks a little bit about Path of Love (but not much because the 
experience is secret!), and she also shares the lessons she has learned 
during each retreat. This is a process that will help you shed the 
layers that your upbringing and society have placed on you since you 
were little - to return to who you are meant to be. Tune in to hear 
Rachel’s experience from the heart.

Birthdays, Body Image, and Tough Conversations

In today’s episode of the podcast, Rachel talks all about toddler tantrums. Her two-year-old son is in a phase right now where he doesn’t like to wear pants, or sit in his car seat, or brush his teeth, and this often leads to some big emotional releases. But what if we shifted our views around? What if we could see a tantrum for what it really is - an intelligent little body learning how to hold and release anger?

We all need big emotional releases. We all need an outlet to feel the anger, pain, frustration, and despair we are encountering on a daily basis. If we don’t have that, our anger is going to lead to some hurtful places. This episode will teach you some valuable lessons, like where does your anger go? Tune in to figure it out.

Where Does Your Anger Go?

We are all connected to this earth, and we are all connected to each other. But whether we feel that connection or not depends on us. There are ways to strengthen this bond and bring it to life - and there are ways to dull it and cut ourselves off. So much of the suffering we see began with a sense of separation.

In today’s episode, Rachel shares actionable ways you can deepen your connection to the world around you. It will help you feel more compassionate and empowered to take action against suffering. Tune in for a reminder that there is no such thing as other people’s children - and other people’s suffering is our suffering too.

This is a time of year where many of us feel the need to get more organized and structured. And to do that - we need to set boundaries. What is your experience with setting boundaries? Are you in a deep, connected relationship with yourself, where you can stand up for what you need? Or do you shy away from confrontation and keep the peace at the expense of your wellbeing? The first step is to learn who you really are. Tune in for an episode that will help you hear your inner voice loud and clear.

If You Think You’re Enlightened, Spend a Week with Your Family

How can we make our intentions stick throughout the year - or how can we give ourselves space to mourn if they are no longer relevant?

Going deeper, Rachel answers a question about influencers who remain quiet on important social issues and injustices in the world - and what we can do about it. Finally, to end the episode, Rachel answers a lighthearted question on the story of her tattoos and what each one means.

Ask Rachel: Reframing Your Intentions, Embodied Presence, and Why Yoga Is Always Political

Today’s episode comes with no epiphanies. It’s just an honest, open sharing on anxiety when there is nothing else you can do. If you’ve ever had a tiny moment trigger a sea of anxiety, then you’ll know exactly what that feels like.
This week, Rachel and her family are visiting friends on a beautiful island off the southern coast of Sweden. The sun is shining, summer is in full swing, and Rachel is surrounded by loved ones, good food, and beautiful scenery. But her anxiety has not let her enjoy any of it. After finding three ticks on her daughter, Rachel went into a full downward spiral worrying about her daughters health. Nothing has helped her break the surface as of yet.
What can we do when there is nothing to do? Sometimes the answer is to be in the body, so the mind can follow. Sometimes the answer is to share. And sometimes the answer is a really long, understanding hug. Tune in today for a combination of all three.
