Dr. Steven Farmer: A More Grounded You - Living with Purpose, Presence and Joy

In a powerful and heartfelt conversation, I sat down with the wise and generous Dr. Steven Farmer to explore what it means to close out the year with intention, healing, and purpose. As a healer, teacher, author, and shamanic practitioner, Dr. Farmer brings decades of experience guiding others toward emotional and spiritual wellness. We began by redefining success—not by material outcomes, but by how aligned we are with our purpose and service. Whether you're a grandparent, an artist, or someone rebuilding after challenges, success begins with knowing why you're here.

Dr. Farmer shared practical, grounded tools to help listeners stay centered in turbulent times. One of the simplest yet most transformative was the 4-7-8 breath technique: inhale for four counts, hold for seven, exhale for eight. This calming breath, he explained, supports the nervous system and helps manage the fear, anxiety, and overwhelm that so many feel today. He also encouraged the practice of journaling—both as a way to reflect and to receive guidance. Whether you're hearing from Spirit, ancestors, nature, or simply your own inner knowing, writing becomes a sacred space for clarity and communion.

We ended with a gentle reminder that healing and growth are supported by community, creativity, and a good dose of humor. Dr. Farmer emphasized the importance of listening—to our breath, to the messages in nature, and to one another. Whether it’s a squirrel offering a spiritual nudge or the joyful song of a child, he invites us to stay open to the signs all around us. His message was clear: stand tall, breathe deep, keep your sense of humor, and live your purpose in service to others.
