Stop Spiraling and Start Living with Erik Ireland

from It's Okay, We're All Gonna Die with Nurse Julie

If you are overwhelmed by the noise, the pressure, and the nonstop pace of life right now…what if peace is smaller and closer than you think?This week, Nurse Julie sits down with Erik Ireland, author of Awaken Your Myth, and the soothing voice behind Listen to Sleep, to talk about mindfulness in a way that actually feels human. Not perfect mornings, silent retreats, or pretending everything is fine. Real life mindfulness. The kind that happens when you are stuck in traffic, spiraling at 2 AM, grieving someone you love, or just trying to hold it together during another exhausting week.The two discuss why so many of us feel overwhelmed, what “McMindfulness” gets wrong, how grief can change the way we see life, and why toxic positivity is often just denial in disguise. Erik also guides Julie through her own mindfulness journey, sharing simple ways anyone can begin, even if you feel too overwhelmed to start.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
