Have you ever observed the significant impact that can result from performing small, routine tasks, often referred to as rituals? Such rituals, including keeping a journal, drinking tea, lighting candles, taking daily walks, or choosing stairs over elevators, may have a profound effect on one's physical and mental well-being over time. Tamara Castelo, CEO of Tâmara Castelo Clinic in Portugal, believes that solutions exist for every problem, but people often struggle to access them due to a lack of direction and over-stimulation. Today, she joins us to discuss her new book, The Power of Rituals, and addresses questions such as the most effective simple rituals to reduce daily stress, the significance of daily rituals, the importance of physical touch, the benefits of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and more...-------------------------------Links Discussed in This EpisodeOrder a Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living and Parenting with SimplicityDiane’s Resource: Yogi Egyptian Licorice Tea (I get mine on Thrive Market, if you're interested!)Podcast Episode: EP743 Peter Attia on the Rich Roll PodcastBook: Outlive: The Science & Art of Longevity by Peter AttiaBook: Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker Connect with Tâmara:WebsiteFacebookInstagramShow Notes for The Power of Small RitualsEnjoy this Podcast?Post a review and share it! If you enjoyed tuning into this podcast, then do not hesitate to write a review.

Did you know that shopping won’t solve your style struggles? If it did, you wouldn’t be struggling with a closet full of nothing to wear. The ultimate style solution starts with a mindset shift. Joining me today is former Hollywood stylist, Jammie Baker. Five years ago, she ditched the red carpet lifestyle to create a virtual styling business. Jammie empowers real women to find their unique style because she knows it’s not just about the clothes you wear, but the life you live in your clothes.

We dive into faith practices like lament, waiting, and connection, and how they can help us navigate the darker moments of life. Michele shares her own journey of building a resilient faith and offers insights on how to fill our days with reminders of God's never-ending devotion. -------------------------------Links Discussed in This EpisodeOrder a Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living and Parenting with SimplicityConnect with Michele:Michele’s WebsiteFacebookInstagramBook: A Faith That Will Not Fail by Michele CushattShow Notes for Bonus Episode: Building a Faith That Will Not FailEnjoy this Podcast?Post a review and share it! If you enjoyed tuning into this podcast, then do not hesitate to write a review.

Join me for part two of my conversation with Jillian Hankins. In this episode, we discuss Jillian’s passion to live according to natures rhythms/seasons. Jillian has always been endlessly fascinated with the richness of the seasons. Jillian believes that to live seasonally is more than what we eat, but reaches down into the very marrow of our days - how we move through the hours that we've been given with our families!-------------------------------Links Discussed in This EpisodeOrder a Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living and Parenting with SimplicityEpisode: Slowing Down Family Life (Part One)Book: Stolen Focus by Johann HariConnect with Jillian:Seasonal Guides: https://www.jillianmargaretwellness.com/shopWebsite: https://www.jillianmargaretwellness.comFree Gifts: https://www.jillianmargaretwellness.com/freebiesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jillianmargaretwellness/Show Notes for Slowing Down Family Life (Part Two)Enjoy this Podcast?Post a review and share it! If you enjoyed tuning into this podcast, then do not hesitate to write a review.

In this episode, I delve into the topic of slow and simple living with my guest, Jillian Hankins. My conversation with Jillian felt like catching up with an old friend. We spoke for over ninety minutes. In the first half, we explored the significance of slowing down, even when it's challenging to quiet our inner to-do lists. We also discussed the common tendency to claim we live slowly while still getting swept up in the culture of busyness. The second half (that will air on Friday) focuses on Jillian’s passion to live according to natures rhythms/seasons. To live seasonally is more than what we eat, but reaches down into the very marrow of our days, how we move through the hours that we've been given with our families!-------------------------------Links Discussed in This EpisodeOrder a Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living and Parenting with SimplicityDiane's Resource: Toy Trader App | Toy Trader App InstagramConnect with Jillian:Seasonal Guides: https://www.jillianmargaretwellness.com/shopWebsite: https://www.jillianmargaretwellness.comFree Gifts: https://www.jillianmargaretwellness.com/freebiesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jillianmargaretwellness/Show Notes for Slowing Down: Embracing the Simple Riches of the SeasonEnjoy this Podcast?Post a review and share it! If you enjoyed tuning into this podcast, then do not hesitate to write a review.

Setting your intentions to get regular quality sleep takes some work. From changing lifestyle habits to being mindful of your sleep hygiene, there are a lot of factors to consider in the quest to get better rest – including creating a tranquil space to slip into deep, restorative sleep. However, the bedroom tends to be a catchall for the day, including discarded clothes, bags, shoes, accessories, a workspace and more. Can all this clutter disrupt your sleep? Probably not – but it can disrupt your peace of mind. This is where Terry Craelle, RN, sleep expert and representative of the Better Sleep Council comes in! Today Terry answers the questions: Does a messy/disorganized bedroom actually affect one’s sleep? What are some other tips for “tidying” your sleep rituals? What's sleep hygiene? If someone is overwhelmed with all the advice, what’s *one thing* they can start doing tonight to tidy their sleep habits? Terry’s goal is to share clever hacks for decluttering your bedroom and reclaiming your zone of relaxation to sleep soundly!-------------------------------Links Discussed in This EpisodeOrder a Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living and Parenting with SimplicityConnect with Terry:Instagram | FacebookBetter Sleep Council (BSC)Show Notes for Declutter Your Bedroom (and Reclaim Tranquility)Enjoy this Podcast?Post a review and share it! If you enjoyed tuning into this podcast, then do not hesitate to write a review.
