Introduction

Welcome to Settled Within!  Settled Within is a podcast for women who want to experience greater peace through the healing power of Jesus Christ, evidence-based mental health practices, and mindfulness. Hosted by psychotherapist and mindfulness teacher Erin Thomson, this podcast explores how faith and science beautifully complement one another in the pursuit of emotional healing, resilience, and lasting peace. Each episode offers practical tools to help you calm your nervous system, navigate anxiety and overwhelm, strengthen your relationships, and become more emotionally and spiritually grounded. Drawing from psychotherapy, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and the teachings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Erin shares compassionate insights and simple practices that help you slow down, hear the Spirit more clearly, and create a life of greater intention and joy. Whether you're a busy mom, navigating a difficult season, supporting someone you love, or simply longing to feel more settled within, you'll find hope, encouragement, and practical guidance for your journey. If you've ever wondered how mindfulness, mental health, and the gospel work together, you're in the right place. Welcome to Settled Within—where faith, mindfulness, and emotional healing come together to help you find peace from the inside out.
