  • Episode 13: Easing Holiday Stress Through the Six Loving Exchanges

    Episode 13: Easing Holiday Stress Through the Six Loving Exchanges
    Feb 5 2026

    The holiday season is meant to be holy — a time of remembrance, connection, and returning to the essence of spirituality. Yet for so many of us, this time of year becomes tangled in stress, expectations, and emotional noise.

    In this episode, we gently step back into the sacred. We explore how the Six Loving Exchanges of the Bhakti tradition — giving gifts, receiving gifts, offering prasad, accepting prasad, revealing one’s heart, and listening with compassion — transform the holidays from overwhelming to deeply meaningful.

    These timeless practices remind us what the season is truly about: honoring relationships, creating space for the heart, and allowing love to move through simple gestures that make life feel divine again.

    Join us for reflections, grounding practices, and a devotional lens to help you move through this holy season with more softness, intention, and inner peace.
