Order and Chaos

dimanche 7 mai 2023Duration 19:29

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

124. Steady

mardi 31 janvier 2023Duration 19:59

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

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.

113. Time Sensitive

Season 5 · Episode 113

vendredi 8 avril 2022Duration 24:04

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.

111. Frustration

Season 5 · Episode 111

vendredi 25 février 2022Duration 29:41

“It's taken us 5 years, but we finally managed to have a robot reading a whole list of curses, followed by a Sun Ra free jazz drum freak out. Great work team, this episode will be DIVISIVE”

– Joshua Van Tassel

110. Attics and Basements

Season 5 · Episode 110

vendredi 4 février 2022Duration 19:24

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.

109. I've Come Back From Worse

Season 5 · Episode 109

vendredi 21 janvier 2022Duration 21:07

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.

You will also hear about a program I took called The Grief Recovery Method. Here’s a link to find out more about that.
https://www.griefrecoverymethod.com/ If you are looking for grief support, contact me (laurie@pondercast.ca) and I’ll put you in touch with someone who can guide you through the course.
Phew! Lots of big stuff happening. And...life goes on. May you be well.

Look out for the ice.

Season 5 · Episode 108

vendredi 7 janvier 2022Duration 17:46

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.
