Living on Lemonade with Lauren

15. Easing the weight of grief through honouring your loved one

In this episode, I chat about the week we spent in San Diego celebrating our first wedding anniversary and honouring my dad on the one year mark since he passed away. 
One way I've navigated grief that has been super helpful for me is being very intentional about making time to pause, reflect and do some of the things my loved ones enjoyed so I can feel close to them.
If you see this in time, our monthly free masterclass is happening Tuesday May 30th at 8pm inside the Living on Lemonade with Lauren Facebook community. This month's topic is an introduction to intuition.

14. Living for the Weekend, Burnout and Some Dad Wisdom

In today's episode, I switch gears from grief to challenging societal "norms." The first topic is about how we as a collective society live for weekends, vacations and everything outside the present moment and how it takes away from living our lives to the fullest. 
My dad instilled some hard but beautiful truths in his last few years of life to me and I'm ready to share some of his wisdom so that his life and legacy can impact and inspire more than just me.

13. Lovingkindness Meditation

This episode is a lovingkindness meditation read from one of my favourite books called Buddha's Brain. The authors are Rick Hanson and Richard Mendius. I ended the meditation with some self love thoughts that are my own words.

11. First Love and Finding Yourself After A Breakup

In this episode, I chat about my first love and what the aftermath of a break up can feel like when we lose part of our identity from it.
This was the beginning of my personal development journey and the first real steps to loving and accepting myself.

09. The duality of celebrating life and navigating grief around holidays

In this impromptu episode, I share my heart around the moment the reality set in that my aunt isn't coming back. This happened on the weekend that makes me think of her most- Easter.

07. When You Don’t Get To Say Goodbye To Your Loved One

Hi everyone! Gosh, it's been a hot minute!
I've needed a bit of a break from all things in general and am happy to be coming out of my hibernation finally.
Today, I'm talking about the experience of losing my grandpa at 16 years old, just two years after my childhood kitty Chrissy was put down and four years after losing my friend Nicole. I discuss what it was like to lose my grandpa and be the only one in the family to not have the opportunity to say goodbye and how I came to terms with it, along with some of my coping tools to get me through the darkest part of my grief of losing him.
As mentioned in the podcast, if you'd like to join me in my free online Facebook community, Living on Lemonade with Lauren, you can do so here:

06. Grounding Meditation

In this episode, I lead listeners through a grounding meditation to help you get out of your head and back into your body when you feel stress, anxiety and overwhelm.
This meditation is a passage from the book called, "The Earth Prescription: Discover the Healing Power of Nature with Grounding Practices for Every Season" by Laura Koniver. 
This recording was used in the first round of my 5-week series that helps people manage stress and navigate life with more grace and ease.
