About this listen

 Vital Healing is a place to come home to yourself. Each episode invites you into the practices and reflections that shape my own path. Breathwork. Somatic presence. Walking meditation. Spiritual honesty. The slow work of returning to the body. These episodes grow out of the Vital Healing Substack. I share a little commentary around each essay, read the piece in my own voice, and sometimes pause to explore the ideas more deeply. It is a simple way for you to walk with the writing, to hear it spoken, and to stay connected to the heart behind the words. I created this as a companion for our journey. Something steady and human, that meets you wherever you are. My hope is that these readings and reflections offer a quiet place to breathe and to come home to yourself.

    Arriving Where We Already Are
    Feb 18 2026

    This episode is a reading of this week’s Substack reflection, Arriving Where We Already Are.


    It explores the difference between changing our surroundings and actually settling into the present moment. Many of these writings began while walking, and recorded walks will begin appearing soon.

  • We Never Really Disconnect

    We Never Really Disconnect
    Feb 11 2026

    This week’s reflection explores a kind of exhaustion that doesn’t resolve with sleep.

    Many of us pause activity without ever leaving readiness, which leaves the body unable to fully recover. This conversation looks at what it means to truly disconnect and why real rest begins when nothing is required of us for a moment.

  • The Cost of Constant Activation

    The Cost of Constant Activation
    Feb 4 2026

    In this episode, Keith Rowe shares the spoken version of his weekly Substack essay, The Cost of Constant Activation. This reflection explores how chronic nervous system activation shows up not only as outrage or urgency, but also as quiet vigilance, distraction, and numbness.

    Rather than diagnosing or prescribing, this piece invites listeners to notice what constant activation does to our capacity for presence, empathy, and care, and why so much healing work begins in the body rather than in ideology or opinion.
