147 - Emotional Resiliency

Author: Blue Rock Station March 20, 2022 Duration: 29:05
Increasingly there is a growing awareness that the world is in crisis. Four years of Trump, two years of Covid, the outbreak of war in Europe... people are reaching an emotional breaking point.   Well clearly the sad reality is that difficult and troubling things happen in each of our lives. But how do some seem to deal with this stress better than others?   Join Annie and Jay Warmke of Blue Rock Station for a discussion of how to create emotional resiliency in your life.

Ever wondered what it actually takes to live a greener life beyond the recycling bin and reusable bags? When the BioMass Hits the Wind Turbine, from the folks at Blue Rock Station, digs into the messy, funny, and genuinely challenging parts of trying to live sustainably. This isn't about lofty ideals from a distant stage; it's a grounded conversation from people who are figuring it out day by day. You'll hear practical stories about the projects that worked, the ones that spectacularly didn't, and all the problem-solving in between. The discussions naturally weave through how this lifestyle touches everything-our health and fitness, the culture we build, and the alternative paths we can take in our communities and education. It’s a candid look at the trade-offs, the small victories, and the reality that living lightly on the planet is a constant learning process. Tune into this podcast for a dose of honesty and humor, a resource that feels more like a chat with knowledgeable neighbors than a lecture. Each episode offers a tangible piece of the puzzle, whether you're just curious or ready to get your hands dirty.
