Inner Peace, Better Health

Stress has a way of settling into the body before we notice it. Tight shoulders, shallow breath, a racing mind. This episode is for anyone carrying tension they have stopped questioning.
Ellen Edmondson shares why inner peace comes from alignment rather than perfect conditions, and offers small daily practices for finding calm in a busy life.
About the Guest:
Ellen Edmondson is a multi award winning author based in the United States. A former senior federal government executive of 16 years, she left that path after a series of awakenings and now helps people live with greater clarity, purpose, and inner guidance. She is the author of A Place of Love & Light.
Key Takeaways:
Inner peace is alignment with yourself, not the absence of chaos
Two to five minutes of daily silence is enough to start hearing your inner guidance
Ask yourself: what is the most loving thing I can do for myself right now
Comparison culture and constant productivity quietly block calm
Journalling reveals patterns and progress you cannot see day to day
A hard season is not a return to the start; it is proof of how far you have come

Meet Sandy and Derek, co-founders of Anamlíniú, who join Inner Peace, Better Health to explore what real connection requires, starting with yourself.
Listeners will hear why grounding works as a small daily habit, and why lasting growth comes from integration, not just powerful moments.
About the Guests:
Sandy and Derek are co-founders of Anamlíniú, an Irish spiritual wellness platform whose name combines the words for soul and alignment. They offer spiritual guidance sessions, energy work, and community events.
Key Takeaways:
A common misconception is looking for life's answers externally; they describe real answers as coming from reconnecting with your own inner wisdom.
Growth isn't one peak experience; it comes from integrating what you learn into ordinary daily life.
Grounding doesn't require lots of time. A few mindful minutes, even during a shower, can help release tension.
Disconnection often shows up physically first, as tension, stress, or strain in relationships, before people notice it consciously.
You can offer someone awareness or perspective, but real change only happens when they're ready to choose it.
Community and shared reflection can help sustain a practice once the initial motivation or novelty fades.

We talk about health like it lives only in the body, the right food, the right movement, the right numbers on a chart. This episode of Inner Peace, Better Health questions that framing directly. Host Nazish talks with coach and author Bonnie Liotta about why the state of your inner world and the state of your body are never really separate, and why peace might be the foundation everything else grows from, rather than a reward for getting everything else right.
Bonnie shares her own journey through fear, financial risk, and years of persistence, including a period living off-grid while rebuilding her life's work, and what she has learned about staying grounded through uncertainty. This conversation offers practical, lived-in tools for treating peace as something you tend to daily, not something you earn after the hard part is over.
About the Guest:
Bonnie Liotta is a life and business coach and co-founder of Creating Champions For Life, a parenting program she built with her husband Thomas to help families move away from medication and punishment toward guidance and cooperation. She has over 30 years of experience in personal development and coaching.
Key Takeaways:
Growth often happens right at the edge of a "terror barrier," the discomfort that shows up just before a real breakthrough.
Struggling with something new usually isn't a sign you're broken. It's often just a sign you haven't learned it yet.
Staying focused on where you're going, rather than what you're currently going through, makes it easier to persist through genuinely hard seasons.
A short breathing practice, inhaling for a count, holding, and exhaling for twice as long, can interrupt a racing mind before it spirals.
Gratitude for what is actually present right now is a reliable way to steady yourself when anxiety or overwhelm creeps in.

This episode is for anyone who thinks peace means having zero problems. Host Suma talks with Laura Richards about why real peace comes from knowing yourself and your own boundaries.
Laura shares how years without boundaries left her overriding her own needs, what shifted after her divorce, and how anger or a tight stomach often signals a boundary being crossed.
About the Guest:
Laura Richards hosts the podcast That's Where I'm At, where she talks about healing from narcissistic abuse, setting boundaries, and learning self-love after her own divorce.
Key Takeaways:
Peace isn't the absence of problems, it comes from knowing yourself and your boundaries.
Boundaries are a door, not a wall, they show people how to stay close, not shut them out.
Anger, a stomach ache, or dread around someone often means a boundary is being crossed.
Journaling both sides of a relationship can reveal patterns you've been missing.
Setting boundaries for the first time gets harder before it gets easier, that's part of the process.

A Note for Our Listeners:
Before you press play, a gentle word. Our guest Barry Deeks is a survivor of a catastrophic road accident that temporarily affected his ability to speak. At times in this conversation, his words may not sound as clear as he would like them to, but every thought he shares is considered, intentional, and deeply felt.
We ask you to listen with patience and with an open heart. Please do not judge Barry on how his voice sounds, only on the depth of what he is offering. His presence in this conversation is itself an act of courage, and the meaning lives in his words, not in their delivery.
