Welcome to The Experiential Podcast, a deep dive into the fascinating and profound journey of being human. Hosted by Nicole Lohse, whose lifelong fascination with the human experience drives this exploration, this podcast invites listeners to reconnect with their internal and collective wisdom. In a world where we often feel disconnected, lost, and constrained by patterns and conditioning, Nicole reminds us that we are adaptable and that through tuning in, exploring our experiences, and integrating the parts of ourselves that feel stuck, we can rediscover our true essence. With each episode, Nicole guides us through the process of recognizing and disentangling from our conditioning, listening to our instincts and intuition, and reclaiming our agency and choice. While acknowledging that the journey isn't easy and that we may still find ourselves caught in old patterns, Nicole assures us that there's nothing inherently wrong with us. Through spaciousness, grace, and a newfound ability to pause and bring awareness to our experiences, The Experiential Podcast offers a path toward reconnecting with ourselves, each other, and the planet...

episode 2: The Principles - Part 1 | 002
This is part 1 of the 2 part series where I guide you through my principles and share some practices for you to explore how to deepen your experience of yourself.
I’d like to invite you to pause and notice! Are you ON and alert? Disconnected and shutdown? In an exploratory state? In this episode I speak to the threat response cycle and how our state is often a reflection of our trauma and us stuck somewhere in that cycle. By understanding your autonomic nervous system you’ll also be able to more clearly reflect on the way you move through your day to day. Lastly I invite you to consider when you’re exploring from more of a top down or a bottom up perspective. By paying attention to when you use your resources and coping strategies you’ll be able to notice when you’re directing your experiences versus when you’re staying with your experiences and discovering what else is possible!
This is Part 1 of a 2 part series that can be used as a resource as you explore what comes up for you in the Experiential Podcast. Be sure to download the Experiential Guide to support you in reflecting and inquiring. And remember. Less is more. Pause often to digest and integrate what you’re learning here. And I encourage you to come back to this episode again and again!
