Author Meera Innes - Conscious Singlehood in your 40s & Writing as a Spiritual Practice

Dearest listeners,Prepare yourself for more than surface-level discourse...This week, I'm sitting down with arguably one of my favourite friends in recent times - Meera Innes - writer, cultural observer and in her own words consistent "inquisitor of life". Based in Berlin though with a thoroughly cosmopolitan background, Meera models "conscious" living. Choosing, at this stage in her early 40s, to cultivate a rhythm, value system, social circle and self-care practice that is profoundly personalised and selective. As she says; if a person, place or experience doesn't enhance her life or align with her values, it's a simple no. Not from a lack of compassion / adaptability; but from a deep recognition that it is only in living "congruently" (outsides matching insides) that we find peace and purpose. In our conversation, we dive into Meera's personal and authorial learnings - touching especially on what we can learn and role-model during this especially turbulent time in human existence. Themes include: - How to balance the yearning for connection with the need for independence, self-reflection & creative autonomy- Seeing, sensing and "managing" the world with ADHD- Whether we can "feel" / "find" ourselves in singleness, versus through the self-discovery that naturally comes from being in "relationship"- What dating in your 30s and 40s teaches you- Writing as living prayer - what it soothes, satisfies and serves- Whether we have permission to "speak" to collective suffering- How we cultivate self-attention as an "others-oriented" personFor More on Meera & to access her workInstagram: @meerabellSubstack: https://substack.com/@meerabel/posts Stay Connected with the PodcastTo stay up to date with upcoming episodes and guest insights, follow me on Instagram at @ab_embodiment or visit our website.And to explore working together more deeply -Join our free newsletter for insights, events and self-healing resources: www.ab-embodimentcoaching.orgBook a Clarity call for the 2025 1:1 Container “Becoming”: https://tinyurl.com/4wzsnpkuReserve your place in the 2025 Practitioner Training - From Head to Heart: https://tinyurl.com/j5ypzdhuSending love and light to wherever this finds you dear ones,A x
