New Awakenings
Like Mulder from the X-Files, we all want to believe! Your hosts of New Awakenings have embarked on a journey of discovery. They’ve talked to people deeply entrenched in the spiritual, metaphysical, and mystical worlds. They’ve thrown themselves into weird and wonderful experiences, and they’re sharing them with you in an effort to find the trick to self-growth. Whether your interests lie in the metaphysical or the spiritual or even grounded in the three dimensional world, this show will help you explore the endless possibilities of self growth….tinged with a hint of the supernatural.
During this podcast, your hosts Karen Endsley and Will Rodriguez will take you on a journey of enlightenment through very interesting and meaningful conversations with the experts. They will learn about everything from Edgar Cayce and his work to the myriad of modalities being practiced in the metaphysical realm. Their light hearted conversation style and humor will be sure to add some fun while they dig deep into incredible topics and reveal insights that just may change the way you look at life. One is a true pragmatist, while the other sees the world with a sense of wonder. These differing approaches allow them to reach many different types of people, from the skeptical scientist to the lover of all things woo!

Mind–Body–Spirit: Pathways to Healing & Balance with Nadira Grubbs
Host Karen is joined by Nadira Grubbs, Event Coordinator at the A.R.E. Nadira shares powerful insights into how the mind–body–spirit connection impacts our mental health and overall well-being. She explores A.R.E. programs designed to support this connection, from movement practices like somatic yoga and chair yoga to breathwork as a sacred bridge that connects us to our hearts and helps release tension.
Nadira also highlights the healing benefits of bodywork offered at the A.R.E. Health Center & Spa and its accredited massage therapy school, where aligning the nervous system and cerebral spinal health can help prevent disease and restore balance. With every practice—whether movement, meditation, or mindful breathing—we are reminded that true health requires harmony of mind, body, and spirit.
