Less Pints, More Presence | Sobriety, Fasting, Mindfulness & Spiritual Awakening

🎙️ Episode 66 – Less Pints, More PresenceThe Temple Barred PodcastIn Episode 66 of the Temple Barred Podcast, hosts Jim Win and Philip Noone dive deep into sobriety, fasting, synchronicity, and what happens when we trade escapism for presence.Sparked by giving up alcohol for Lent, this conversation expands into the shared spiritual roots of Lent, Ramadan, fasting, and intentional sacrifice — and how these ancient practices are resurfacing in modern life as tools for clarity, healing, and consciousness.The lads explore: • Life as working musicians and the normalisation of daily drinking • What really happens when you stop numbing emotions • Alcohol, ego, meditation, and presence • Synchronicities, collapsing dualities, and collective awakening • Acts of service, secret kindness, and choosing love over fear • Autism, neurodiversity, and new expressions of consciousness • Film, emotion, crying in the cinema, and cultural archetypes • Parenting, becoming a grandparent, and generational growthThis is an honest, funny, reflective episode about meeting life where it is, letting go of habits that no longer serve us, and learning to stay present — especially when it’s uncomfortable.Whether you’re taking a break from drink, observing Lent or Ramadan, exploring spirituality, or just feeling the pull toward a more conscious way of living, this episode is for you.⸻🔗 Listen & Follow The Temple Barred Podcast🎧 Spotify / Apple Podcasts / YouTube:👉 https://linktr.ee/templebarredpodcast📸 Instagram:👉 https://instagram.com/templebarredpodcast⸻🎸 HostsJim WinSinger-songwriter, performer, podcaster🎵 Music: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3obbe9U6QcAiFcir41Am1S?si=6ApYUKiUQK2U6oMS15UyEA📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/win4jim?igsh=anBtaTVmZWVtdTZq&utm_source=qrPhilip NooneMusician, songwriter, co-host🎵 Music: https://open.spotify.com/artist/7bquVhkbGmdnAUNud1OGlU?si=2k1evkWPRvaP0I2FfdrmJg📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/philipnooneofficial?igsh=MWVlM255YjBlcW55bA==⸻🏷️ Hashtags#TempleBarredPodcast #LessPintsMorePresence #SobrietyJourney#Mindfulness #IrishPodcast #SpiritualGrowth #ConsciousLiving#Lent #Ramadan #Fasting #Presence #SelfAwareness#MusiciansLife #CreativeMind #MentalHealth #ChoosingLove#SpiritualPodcast #IrishCreators #Awakening #PodcastIreland
