Ever wondered how a simple hum can soothe your nervous system, or how a surprise encounter with nature's wildlings can turn into a hair-raising tale? Join us as Producer Sara regales us with her San Diego escapades and we navigate the unpredictable waters of remote recording. As Sara's voice unexpectedly dips and dives, giving us a chuckle, we also delve into the science behind the calming effects of humming on the vagus nerve—a little-known trick to keep you humming with good vibes all day long.
Our episode takes a wild turn with some critter comedy when Kat recounts a listener's personal battle of wits with a sneaky cicada and Sara's sprint-in-the-park from a California King snake. We weave through these encounters with nature's unpredictability to the more tender moments of life, like dealing with Bell-Bell's anxiety after a grooming session. It's a heartfelt nod to the empathy we share with our four-legged companions, serving up a slice of life that pet parents know all too well.
Rounding out our conversation, we sprinkle in some 'seasonal seasonings'—those personal philosophies that give our lives their unique flavor. From Kat's personal recipe of "A Little Goes a Long Way" to Sara's vibrant "Tajin," each of us shares the zest that keeps us tickled and tenacious. And if you've ever been curious about the intersection of holistic health and therapeutic practices, we're stirring the pot with insights on licorice extract, the intriguing potential of combining talk therapy with psychedelics, and the artistry that springs from meditative states. Get ready for an episode that spices up your routine with laughter, learning, and a touch of something unexpectedly profound.
