Intention: The Activating Energy of Personal Transformation

This episode begins with a brief explanation of why I named this podcast Tending to Change. We then discuss why checking out and living on autopilot can be a protective strategy, how pain is often what causes us to “wake up”, and some of the differences between autopilot and presence.

I share a bit of my own life experience, including what woke me up from my frantic sleepwalk through life, my first yoga class experience, and how I first started my mindfulness practice. We then discuss the power and importance of heartfelt intention in the journey of personal transformation and some of the different ways one can practice mindfulness/stillness.

We end the episode with a brief, one-mindful-breath meditation.

Tending to Change is hosted by Jeni Juarez, a 500-hr RYT, a mother of four, and a dedicated student on the path of the heart. Having struggled with trauma, addiction, and debilitating anxiety, she has deep gratitude for the power of nature, stillness practices, and loving community to completely change the trajectory of one’s life.

Jeni believes there is a significant undervaluation of emotional resilience and cultivating peace of mind in our fast-paced, over-achieving culture, and she’s excited to be a part of the momentum that is actively working to change that narrative.
