When life changes from order to chaos and then to….nothing. We are lost in space. I’m here to report back.

Hi.
There is nothing new we can say about the month of January... or is there?
There are two phrases that came to me in the grey gloom and they are:
1) soft and alive 2) rich and steady
Work with me.
Yours in January solidarity, Laurie and Joshua -

Chances are you have a list kicking around your place right now. Maybe a
shopping list – or a ‘to do’ list? Do you make a list of pros and cons when
faced with a big decision? We humans love our lists because they offer a
placebo effect to the complex chaos of our world. -
Pondercast is taking a high dive this fall for our 6th season.
Our new motto: Expect the unexpected...unexpectedly.
This episode is our first step to a new, more immersive, embodied experience for you.
Climb the Yarmouth, Nova Scotia lighthouse with me..and dive down into the cold waters of
The Bay of Fundy.
An antidote to that all too familiar ‘back to school’ feeling. -

What was the combination for your first high school locker? I bet you remember it.
That combination was the ONLY thing I was sure of when I stepped into school that year.
Character Count is about the life long process of getting to know yourself.
It starts with recognizing yourself in the mirror. Where it ends depends on how closely you
are willing to scrutinize what you see.
Here’s looking at you kid! -
What would you be willing to do to find a home for your family?

We start this Pondercast with a field trip to my pond to hear the spring peepers and then head off into an exploration of how our seasons are not sticking to their lane anymore.

Spring is here. Huzzah! Tax time. Whatever. I started thinking about this episode while I was on hold with Canadian Revenue Agency. Let’s think about time and how it comes to us in a 100 different flavours.
Warning: When you ponder time deeply – it turns into space. This will be a journey: forwards and backwards.
Tempus fugit. -
Oh boy…spring is almost here!

Beyond being places where we put stuff to get it out of our way, attics and basements are the perfect metaphor for the stuff in our heads. Both the things we run away from and what we want to return to.
Personally, I prefer attics to basements…but I know there’s something here for everyone.

This episode is a report from deep inside the limbic system of the brain. Also known as the paleomammalian cortex (if you want to get fancy), or the emotional brain. Perhaps you’ve been there before?
I’m calling it ‘I’ve Come Back from Worse’, because shit has been going down in my world. Yours too? If so, how about something you can hang on your wall to acknowledge that? The phrase “I’ve come back from worse” has earned a reputation in my family, and my niece has created this tea saucer and sends them out into the hurting world from her shop in Peterborough, Ontario.

Happier New Year! We are all adjusting constantly these days, so taking a look at what it takes to feel secure is a good way to start 2022 here on Pondercast. Is that even possible? We discuss.

Happy solstice, we're re-releasing an episode from our very first season.

You made it through another November. You are to be congratulated. Why is November so hard? (I can hear you listing reasons). I think it deserves a word all its own: viscerable.
Join me on this ‘romp’ through November and right out the back end of it! - もっと表示する
