We’re so used to being busy all the time because we live in a fast-paced world. When we do find time for ourselves, it’s frequently filled with noise from technology. More often than not, we are not resting well , reflecting, and connecting with ourselves. It is only through relishing in silence and creating spaciousness that our body, mind, and soul will be truly restored.
Rod Stryker joins us once again to talk about the importance of creating spaciousness in our lives. As a yoga and meditation teacher, Rod explains the significance of honoring our human need for resting well. And for those who feel like they’re too busy to be resting well, Rod shares some workarounds and bio-hacks to conquer that challenge. Lastly, we talk about how we can deal with life’s pains and difficulties.
If you want to know the secrets to resting well and feeling more connected with yourself, then this episode is for you!
[04:12] “[The industrial world] is not a construct that's conducive to your nervous system to the human nervous system.”
[14:18] “Step away and shift the rhythm. And then we begin to work more in sync with the nervous system and what it really does want.”
[24:28] “We don't give ourselves the opportunity to have that patience because we've been so desensitized to being bored, to being patient because everything happens so quickly. We've sort of primed ourselves to having this instant gratification.”
[27:23] “We prefer the familiar, as opposed to the unfamiliar. And we would actually, in most cases, prefer the familiar even if it's painful than the unfamiliar even if it has the promise of being less painful.”
[35:13] “The idea is you practice awareness through the course of your life. You remember that you're neither your feelings and your thoughts, nor are you what the world seems to be doing.”

Many of us consider our pets as part of the family. They are not just animals but true companions for life. We grow with them, learn from them, and at times create connections that go deeper than our physical selves. Yet humans, with all that our brains do, can sometimes fall out of connection with all that is around us. It is through animals that we can listen and find the connection again.
In this episode of Radically Loved Radio, Nikki Cuthbertson shares with us the deep emotional and spiritual connections we can create with animals and life all around us. She talks about what intuition means and how we can hone it. We also discuss the importance of heart-mind coherence and tips to help us connect with the energy around us. The world around us is communicating with us and Nikki shares how we can dive deep within ourselves to hear it.
If you want to know what intuition means and how you can use this in your life, then this episode is for you!
[08:05] “It's your spiritual heart. That place of thought, mind, and soul that we're constantly trying to polish to get through the layers of our being, and listen from that place. That place is the same place that unifies all of life.”
[15:40] “So there's these really beautiful ways that are so poignant of working with the animals in the way love can manifest in so many different kinds of concerns and messages, but the root in the essence of it is always love.”
[23:01] “Your intuition is kind of like your internal GPS, and your animals are pretty much dialed into that.”
[43:33] “When you’re cultivating presence, and I think that that's what the gift of communicating with the animals is— in presence, you're not in the future, and you're not in the past.”
[46:01] “For me, feeling radically loved means that I can see purpose in everything that I have lived to make me who I am… taking me out of anything that was my victimhood into really trusting in the divine plan.”
Nikki Cuthbertson is a Registered Nurse, intuitive guru, and professional animal communicator. After 20 years as a critical care nurse, she founded One with Nature to help people attain wholeness and understanding within themselves and with nature.

Throughout our lifetimes, we will undoubtedly face emotions that don’t make us feel good. As human beings, we are designed to empathize with others who are also feeling these heavy emotions. But where do we draw the line? At what point should you start to prioritize your feelings? How do we manage emotions like these so we can serve the highest good?
In this episode, Rosie and Tessa discuss emotions and why it’s normal for us to shy away from negative ones. However, when we do so, we make decisions from a place of unconsciousness. Instead, we need to learn to manage emotions. Acknowledge the existence of your feelings and how they drive you to do certain things.
In the second part of the podcast, we examine the idea of the human race as one. We are all in this together. All of our actions affect the environment. So, we need to be conscious of how our behaviors are serving the highest good. It isn’t the time to bury our heads in the sand. One small step from you may be the catalyst of change amongst others.
Tune in to learn how to manage emotions so that you come from a place of conscious action to create change.
[04:58] “Accepting fear, confusion, anxiety, and whatever other unpleasantness simply means to understand it's part of us.”
[09:52] “When we feel an unsavory feeling, it's instinctual for us to want to not feel it. We don't crave unsavory moments; we want to feel good.”
[12:49] “You got to teach people how to treat you.”
[21:12] “How are we supposed to integrate with making a change if we don't believe that the Earth can support us?”
[24:27] “It's a challenge to stay in the present, but also to remain conscious enough to make those actionable decisions.”

We turn to Western medicine whenever we feel any symptom of illness. Our automatic response is that something is wrong with our physical bodies. But if you take a moment to reflect, you'll find that these symptoms are often due to your lifestyle and environment. After all, we are connected to everything in nature. Thus, we need to live in harmony with it to achieve optimal wellness. Connection and balance are the core of the practice of Ayurveda.

[25:28] “Ayurveda, this way of living is really, at its basic level, about awareness. It's about living consciously, about being aware of why you're making the choices you're making, or you know, what's showing up for you. And then taking a look and saying, ‘Well, why is this showing up?’”
