If you have ever tried to think your way out of a hard season and felt more tired, this one is for you. Sana and Steve Barton explore thinking versus awareness, and whether awareness is a mindset shift or a doorway to something larger.Through simple metaphors, from a stadium of consciousness to a nail in the foot, Steve offers a lighter way to meet fear, self-doubt, guilt and shame, with humor along the way.About the Guest: Steve Barton is a high-performance coach and creator of The Game of Ten®, a framework for quieting inner noise. The host’s introduction cites 47 years in business and a family floral company grown from about $200,000 to $2 million.Key Takeaways:Thinking and awareness differ. Quiet the mind, then let limiting thoughts go instead of analyzing them.Everyone has consciousness. Steve pictures a stadium, from golf ball to open sky, that expands as beliefs loosen.Pain stuffed down stays. Like a nail in the foot, facing it is where healing begins.Humor is the seventh sense: play with people, never at their expense.Control your inner peace, not outcomes. Set big goals, then release how and when.Connect With the Guest: Website and free book: https://www.stevebartoncoaching.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/coach-steve-barton/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stevebartoncoaching/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/steve.barton.338 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stevebartoncoaching X: https://x.com/SteveBa08816536Episode Chapters: [05:22] Thinking, Awareness and the Doorway to Cosmic Consciousness: Sana opens the question behind the episode.

In this episode of Cosmic Confluence, host Navya sits down with Dr. Maureen Magauran, a psychiatrist of over twenty years based north of Boston, Massachusetts, who pioneered what she calls holistic psychiatry before fully transitioning into energy work and meditation. Maureen shares the personal and professional turning points that led her away from a medication-first model of care and into a practice built on self-trust, felt experience, and energetic alignment. The conversation explores why ambition is not the enemy of spirituality, how high-achieving women can mistake their drive for something broken rather than something sacred, and what it actually takes to build a solid energetic center that holds steady no matter how loud the world gets. Maureen also speaks candidly about energetic imprints, inherited beliefs, and the compassionate, non-linear nature of real transformation.About the Guest:Dr. Maureen Magauran is a holistic psychiatrist, spirituality and soul mentor, and coach based in Newburyport, Massachusetts, north of Boston. She holds an MD from the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, a BA in Biology with a minor in Psychology from Yale University, completed her psychiatry training at Boston University Medical Center, and holds a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Fellowship from the Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute. She has trained for over fifteen years as an IST practitioner at the Clairvision School and holds a Health Coach certification in Advanced Nutrition from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. After more than twenty years in traditional psychiatry, Maureen developed what she termed holistic psychiatry before moving fully into energy work, meditation, and soul-centered mentoring, now focused on supporting ambitious, high-achieving women who feel disconnected despite outward success. Her work has been featured on NPR, TEDx, and in various wellness publications and expos.Key Takeaways:Energy healing is best understood through direct, felt experience rather than intellectual convincing. See for yourself and know for yourself.Ambition is not at odds with spirituality. It is a form of life force, and suppressing it creates a felt sense of being out of sync.What often gets labeled as disorganization or distraction may actually be energy wanting to flow and lead somewhere new.A solid energetic center lets a person stay steady on the inside no matter how agitated the world becomes around them.Energetic imprints are often inherited beliefs from family, culture, or religion rather than truths that actually belong to the individual.Resistance during change is normal and is actually a sign of being on the right track, not a sign of failure.Healing is not linear. It is a spiral, and the real marker of transformation is the ability to return to yourself again and again.Compassion for yourself has to come before any outward vulnerability or change can take root.Connect With Maureen Magauran:Website: maureenmagauran.comInstagram: @dr.maureenmagauranFacebook: drmaureenmOffer: Free Clarity Call / Liberation 30 Call to explore what might be ready to shiftRetreat: "Nourished: Coming Home to Yourself," October 16th, north of Boston, MassachusettsChapters:00:00 Introduction to Cosmic Confluence and Maureen Magauran01:04 Maureen's background: from holistic psychiatry to energy work02:02 The biggest misconception about energy healing03:15 Helping skeptical clients feel into the experience05:11 The pivot from holistic psychiatry into energy work07:29 Shifting from a diagnosis model to compassion and understanding10:01 The moment Maureen knew she could not stay in traditional psychiatry13:58 Why ambition is not the enemy of spirituality17:57 A starting practice for women who feel disconnected despite outward success20:07 What resistance to change really means23:21 Sustaining transformation when the world around you has not changed25:48 Healing as a spiral, not a straight line27:33 Maureen's upcoming retreat and how to connect with her🎙️ Want to Be a Guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?Send me a direct message on PodMatch.👉 DM Me Here: https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik🌱 About Healthy Mind By Avik™️Healthy Mind By Avik™️ Global Mental Wellness Podcast Network - focused, credible, no more identity clutter.👉 Subscribe and be part of this healing journey.Refer a GuestKnow someone who would be a great fit for one of our podcast shows?

What if awakening does not mean life gets easier, but that you finally see it differently? On Cosmic Confluence, host Sumedha talks with Cindy Shaw, founder of The Awakened Journey, about what really happens beneath a spiritual awakening.You will learn Cindy's backpack metaphor for the beliefs we carry from childhood, and a simple practice for meeting overwhelming emotion instead of reacting to it.About the Guest:Cindy Shaw is the founder of The Awakened Journey, where she guides women through plant medicine retreats, brain health coaching, and somatic healing work. Her own awakening reshaped how she works with grief, trauma, and limiting beliefs.Key Takeaways:Awakening does not remove life's challenges. It changes the lens you see them through.From birth to about age seven, we absorb beliefs we cannot filter, and they shape us for decades.When something upsets you, pause and ask what it is touching inside you, not just what the other person did.Healing happens in the body, not only the mind. The body remembers what the mind forgets.Try the being process: name the emotion, welcome it as innocent energy, and invite it back into balance.Connect With Cindy Shaw:Website: https://awakenedjourney.caInstagram: @the_awakenedjourneyEpisode Chapters (approx.):[00:00 (approx)] Welcome to Cosmic Confluence: stepping into the threshold of awakening[02:00 (approx)] The Myth of Effortless Bliss: what awakening does and does not promise[06:00 (approx)] The Backpack We All Carry: beliefs absorbed before we could filter them[12:00 (approx)] From Reacting to Noticing: the gap between a trigger and a response[17:00 (approx)] A Doorway Through Plant Medicine: Cindy's own path beyond talk therapy[23:00 (approx)] Releasing What the Mind Forgets: why the body remembers what we do not[27:00 (approx)] The Being Process: a simple practice for meeting overwhelming emotion🎙️ Want to Be a Guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?Send me a direct message on PodMatch.👉 DM Me Here: https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik🌱 About Healthy Mind By Avik™️Healthy Mind By Avik™️ Global Mental Wellness Podcast Network - focused, credible, no more identity clutter.👉 Subscribe and be part of this healing journey.Refer a GuestKnow someone who would be a great fit for one of our podcast shows?
