Life is full of potential stressors, from those on the home front like strained communication with family members to those that sometimes catch us off guard out in the world like an unhappy boss or a traffic jam that makes us late. We can’t control what other people bring to the table or what the world will throw at us on any given day, but what we can do, according to attorney turned mindfulness expert Julie Potiker, is learn to stay calm amidst the chaos. She shares a moving series of trials and triumphs — as well as tangible tips for how anyone can add the calming effects of mindfulness to their life — in her new book: “Life Falls Apart, but You Don’t Have To: Mindful Methods for Staying Calm In the Midst of Chaos.
According to Julie, “Mindfulness is the first step in emotional healing,” says Julie. “It’s being able to turn toward and acknowledge our difficult thoughts and feelings — such as inadequacy, sadness, anger, or confusion — with a spirit of openness and curiosity. Self-compassion involves responding to these difficult thoughts and feelings with kindness, sympathy, and understanding so that we soothe and comfort ourselves when we’re hurting. Research has shown that self-compassion greatly enhances emotional well-being. It boosts happiness, reduces anxiety and depression, and can even help maintain healthy lifestyle habits such as diet and exercise. Being both mindful and compassionate leads to greater ease and well-being in our daily lives.”
Julie shares with us not just how impactful mindfulness can be during various stages of our lives, but how during our mid-life stage mindfulness can be a great tool to maintain out mind, body and spirit wellness.

In 2006, Julie began exhibiting symptoms of a possible brain tumour. “The wrong words kept coming out of my mouth,” she shares. “I’d say ‘captino’ instead of ‘cappuccino,’ ‘maginal’ instead of ‘magical,’ ‘bunkey burvey’ instead of ‘topsy-turvy.’ I went to a neurologist fearing the worst. After a thorough exam, the doctor asked me about my life — what my days consisted of, my family constellation, my schedule and volunteer work. I was a typical baby boomer, sandwiched between three adolescent kids (including identical twin daughters) and ageing parents. He asked me whether I had ever heard of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction; I hadn’t. He suggested that mindfulness training was what I needed in order to improve my health.”
On her doctor’s recommendation, Julie signed up for her first MBSR course at the University of California San Diego Center for Mindfulness. After that initial eight-week class, she became deeply interested in the way our thought patterns can train our brains to act and feel differently.
“In short,” says Julie, “what you think changes your brain. And it doesn’t stop until you’re dead.”
She dove head first into full-blown mindfulness training, taking more than a dozen courses and exploring multiple avenues of study over the next several years, including the groundbreaking new practice of Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC).
“Mindful Self-Compassion was MBSR with the extra component of compassion practice,” Julie shares. “Adding a self-compassion practice was just what I needed to take healing to the next level. MBSR was instructive in learning how to locate emotions in my body but not as helpful to me as MSC in handling the difficult emotions once I found them. I learned skills to soothe myself when times turn rough. My depression vanished, and I managed my issues with anger much better and in a completely new way.”
In 2014, Julie was in the first small group of people trained to teach Mindfulness Self-Compassion. Now, she shares these and other mindfulness techniques with the world through her Mindful Methods for Life training and her new book.
Channelling Ascensions with Sara Troy and Christina Hill + Athella and guest Mark Anthony, on air from May 29th
Once this gift of our human vessel passes, where do we go? Do we stay in touch, do we still connect with those are left here on earth? The answer is yes if we channel and we are open to receiving contact from those who have already left their bodies.
So much is learned from those who have gone before us, and so many entities like Athella who was never a human, are here to show us our path in channelling the divine knowledge from the other side.
Christina, Athella and I, Sara with our guest Mark Anthony, will explore the messages from our universe and from those who have gone before. We all can do this when we let fear go and open our souls and minds to what is waiting for us.
