My Grandparents

I've been doing lots of writing and recording, but questioning myself about sharing. Life feels kind of intense lately, and that stops me from following through on sharing what sometimes feels like too much vulnerability. It's also true to say that sometimes I wait for things to settle that I've made a podcast episode about -before I share. Sometimes that wait time makes me see it's better not to…

Nat Chats With Rainey on 14 & 40

I decided to sit down and chat with my friend that I dedicated my book (14 days & 40 years) to. What a joy it is to watch her grow into an amazing woman. I met her when she had just turned 20. Watching her mature so much in 4 years makes me wonder how it has only been 4 years. I feel like I've known her so much longer because I know her much like a lifetime friend. I hope we get to be that...both…

Audiobook of 14 & 40 is Available

As with many things, I'm not fast, but I always eventually get there. :) It took a while to be content with it all, but I've finished, and my Audiobook of 14 Days & 40 Years is available! You will find it on every Audiobook platform eventually. I want to do another episode talking to the friend who the book is dedicated to. I think that will be better than me and my little announcement here. It's…

What if I'm a Pee-on? Do I mind?

What is it to be a pee-on? Why am I happy to be one? In this episode I pull together a few life-lessons reached by choosing to be a witness, choosing to feel empathy, and by watching others struggle with greed/power/cognitive distortions and these things related to NOT being a pee-on. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe power and money somehow benefit your soul. Or maybe the story they do is all you need for…

Leaving Religion

I personally feel like the more people become self aware, the less they feel they need religion. That's not saying the less they need "God", but the less they need to be told what God is and what God "wants". And isn't that really what religion is all about? Being told all these things by "MEN" that they say is from that all knowing being in the sky. In fact, don't they tell you God is everything,…

CST, SER, & Wholeness

I thought I'd share my personal experiences with Craniosacral Therapy and Somato Emotional Release from 20 years ago. It's actually terrifying to think 20 years have passed since my initial reading of the book The Inner Physician and You by Dr John Upledger. I wish I had done more with the knowledge in that time, and shared this information sooner. I feel like I have a thousand stories, and only…

Learning about MTHFR

MTHFR is a Gene transcription error with an estimated 44% of people having it. That would be no big deal if it didn't directly affect your health in BIG ways. Finding out I have this issue, I'm having to learn more, and it's not fun. I thought an episode about it might be a starting point for some and prove to be somewhat useful. This is also a story of my health over the last few months since…

#2 Winter is Coming

I'm going to continue doing these for a while, it feels right for me. I will create another podcast and call it NatAndChat Sleep Stories. You can find them there shortly. This will be the second and last one I upload here on my Self Awareness podcast. Eventually you will be able to play them back to back without interruption there. I look forward to writing fiction getting easier :) Keep an eye…

Gifts

Some gifts can only come from some people. This feels like a complicated thought, and I hope I explain what I mean in these few minutes. I chose this image because sunshine in the evening always feels like a gift especially when petals or leaves get to be even more beautiful. It's like I'm witness to their gift of sunshine.

#1 Stewards of Nature

If you know me, you know I don’t write fiction. So this is an exception. I wrote and recorded this for a friend who is in a very stressful part of the world. She is a new mother, and both her and her baby are struggling to sleep. I personally find sleep even more vital to my health than eating. So, because I can’t do anything to physically help her, I decided to make her a sleep story. -Fu fu and…
