Already ditched that New Year's resolution? Take heart. It's likely you're not alone.

She explains how and shares an amazing story of her results when she started this practice five years ago.
Special guest Dr. James Rouse shares how giving ourselves a "high five!" every day, with five easy and accessible spiritual practices, will serve and support our intention for blissful living in 2015.
We're braced and ready to experience a beautiful, bountiful year of blissful living; which our host believes is attainable no matter what the circumstances of our lives, as long as we're able to recognize that joy exists in every part of the journey.
In this closing episode for the year, our host suggests ways to navigate the Holi-daze and insert moments of peaceful meditation into our preparations, with all the comfort and joy we can muster.
Each December we've been dedicating a program to listeners who are living through grief or disappointment, because although the lyrics of a popular Christmas song may claim "it's the happiest season of all," that's not so for everyone. This year's "Hope for the Holidays" episode features Creativity and Grief Recovery Coach Cherie Ray, whose words of encouragement can help listeners tend their bruised heart this holiday season.
Our host and a few of her listeners connect the dots as they review some of their favorite highlights from the show's 2014 Practice Project series.
Our host is engaged in a Thanksgiving project, which is eliciting as much irrepressible joy and gratitude in her as she expresses for her radio broadcast. Tune in to hear what has her so unbelievably excited; and engage in a meditation designed to foster happy thanks living.
No need to wait for everything to be going our way in order to be grateful. When we include taking inventory of things to appreciate, as part of our spiritual practice, we unearth a pile of previously unnoticed blessings for which to give thanks.
We're focused on cultivating gratitude in this month's Practice Project, so what better way to get started than with a thanksgiving celebration of our own. Special guest Sarah McLean returns to help us celebrate six years on the air. And, while she's at it, she inspires us with unexpected ways to stay appreciative.
In the previous episode, we heard from author and former Buddhist monk Stephan Bodian about the benefits of cultivating awareness. In this final Practice Project for October, he returns as we investigate whether there may be more beyond mindfulness.
The lyrics of an old movie soundtrack say love and marriage go together like a horse and carriage. So, too, do mindfulness and stillness. During the meditation in part three of this month's Practice Project, author Stephan Bodian officiates the happy marriage of blissful stillness and present moment awareness.
Your mother was right when she encouraged you to sit up straight. In this Practice Project, focused on cultivating awareness, we pay attention to our seated posture-on and off the mat.
Are you someone who goes through your days on autopilot, relentlessly clinging to the comfortable and familiar? Our host's intention for this episode-and indeed the entire Practice Project for the month of October, on Cultivating Awareness-is to bring attention to those habitual ways of being and nudge you out of predictability.
Our host knows firsthand the restorative benefits of putting one's feet up for a quick rest when feeling overwhelmed or stressed. However, when she recently signed up for a new yoga class she didn't expect the whole class would be about chilling out on the mat! During this episode's meditation, special guest Anita Bailey coaxes us into gentle postures to help us repose in stillness too.
We're in a contemplative mood for this episode's Practice Project with special guest Carolyne Mathlin, who teaches us how to unhook from thoughts and images and, through the art of Centering Prayer, meander to that place of stillness within, where we experience God Presence beyond all words.
