Community Routes
This is a podcast filled with therapists, psychologists, authors, and regular people where we talk about mental and emotional health. We take complex topics and break them down, often over snacks and coffee. Our goal is to provide free, digestible mental health discussions to help build a more healthy, supportive community. Join Samuel, Sarah, and Julie every other week on Tuesdays (or whenever you feel like listening)! Our segments: “Off the Beaten Path” is a special episode that features interviews with the community. ”Unpack That” involves discussing books and concepts about mental health. ”Trail Mix” takes a variety of concepts that are asked to the cohosts and discussed as a group. ”Deep Breath” is a shorter, brief mental message for the week.

This week the crew discusses embodiment and the importance of feeling present. What is that sensation like? What do different emotions feel like? How can being present help us in the day to day?

Sometimes we hold stress and tension in our muscles. We need to move, stretch, and release the tightness. Sometimes we have been moving so much, we need to slow it all down and pause to notice what our body needs to rest, recover, and refuel. Allow this Deep Breath moment to be a check in for your body and an opportunity to listen to what your body needs today!

Julie, Samuel, and Shane seem to find an endless amount to talk about and we cover a lot! You can contact Shane or stay up to date by going to shaneraymartin.com.

Join Julie for a breath as she talks about listening. Two important layers are shared -- how to listen to ourselves and how to listen to others. We can't be present in our relationships if we haven't taken time for ourselves because we would have nothing to give. In the pause, how can you learn to engage and listen?

Take the opportunity for a pause and a deep breath. Julie goes over ways to slow things down, rest, and reflect. You don't have to push hard. Give yourself permission to regroup. What is best for your mind, heart, and soul today? Notice your surroundings, finding something soothing, beautiful, or peaceful. Find a haven being present, being here now. Release the tension your body has been holding, be soothed and nurtured in this moment. You're not alone.
