5 Minutes of Peace

In this episode, meditation teacher and retreat leader Tania Ho shares a reading from her favorite book, The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron. Focusing on the chapter about anger, Tania invites us to reconsider this often misunderstood emotion.Instead of being stuffed down or ignored, anger is meant to be listened to. It is a voice, a map, and a loyal companion pointing us toward action, boundaries, and growth. Tania reflects on how anger signals the death of old patterns and the birth of new possibilities. When honored, anger becomes a tool that fuels creativity, helps us treat our ideas with respect, and reminds us to act in our own best interest.She closes with a reminder that creative recovery is not linear—growth happens in cycles, with steps forward and pauses for rest. By treating ourselves with gentleness and compassion, we create the conditions for meaningful change.This episode offers a powerful reframe: anger is not the enemy, but a guide toward living more authentically and courageously.To learn more about Tania’s work and upcoming retreats, visit: www.museflowerretreat.comThe 5 Minutes of Peace podcast is created by The Peace Room, Boise.

In this episode, author and storyteller Will Cady shares a reading from his book Which Way Is North: A Creative Compass for Makers, Marketers, and Mystics.Through the myth and legacy of bluesman Robert Johnson, Will reflects on the profound choices we make with our creative gifts. Johnson’s hands carried him from the fields of Mississippi to a San Antonio hotel room where he recorded 29 songs that became the foundation of rock and roll. His story—woven with myth, music, and mystery—raises timeless questions about inspiration, sacrifice, and what it means to leave a mark on culture.Will explores how Johnson’s influence echoes through generations of musicians, from Muddy Waters to Led Zeppelin, from Bob Dylan to Amy Winehouse, reminding us of the delicate dance between creativity, commerce, and the soul.This reading, “Robert Johnson’s Hands,” invites us to consider what we give, what we create, and how our choices ripple far beyond our own lives.To learn more about Will Cady and his work, visit willcady.com.The 5 Minutes of Peace podcast is created by The Peace Room, Boise.
