The Daily Reconnect

It's Friday Focus! Today we'll focus on memories that resonate with our identity, which can be used as one way to reconnect with the present when feeling dissociated or disconnected. The soundscape is from the forest behind my house. Enjoy the rain and ravens in the distance as we focus on the parts of our identity we value the most.Credits, contact, and more infoThis podcast series was created, written, edited, produced and is hosted by a human, Jen deHaan.Music and SFX are licensed for our use and made by humans, or taken/made in-house by humans.Jen has a Certificate of Graduate Studies in Developing Healthy Communities: Nutrition, Behavior, and Physical Activity from Tufts University, a degree in adult education in the arts, and various certifications and experience in group fitness instruction.Artwork, logo, and graphics: Jen deHaan.More show info/contact: jendehaan.comMade and produced by Jen deHaan in British Columbia, Canada.Disclaimer: Educational content.
