About The Big Silence
The Big Silence is a top-rated mental health and self-development podcast for anyone ready to build resilience, heal deeply, and grow with intention. Welcome to The Big Silence podcast. This is a space for real, honest conversations about mental health, resilience, and the things we’re all navigating but don’t always say out loud. I’m your host, Karena Dawn—mental health advocate, wellness entrepreneur, and owner and co-founder of Tone It Up—and each week I’m sitting down with psychologists, wellness experts, and people I deeply admire to talk about what healing actually looks like in real life. You’ll hear personal stories, expert insight, and simple, powerful tools you can apply to your own life. My hope is that you leave every episode feeling supported, understood, and more confident in your ability to move through whatever season you’re in. No more silence. Only healing. -- A non-profit 501(c)3, The Big Silence Foundation provides resources and support to anyone directly or indirectly impacted by mental illness. 'The Big Silence' theme song was written and performed by James Nicholas Kinney. Executive Handyman, Bobby Goldstein.

[…] And if you're somebody who has a hard time drinking water, put some fruit in it, put the organic berries or some apple or some lemon or orange, whatever feels good. And most importantly, I would say love on herbal teas. At the ashram, we drink so many different types of herbal teas because herbs are medicinal, literally as nature's medicine. So at home, please make sure that you've got a beautiful spice cabinet, maybe grow some fresh herbs on your counter and adding rosemary to your water, peppermint to your water, or drinking those types of teas. Tulsi tea is great. Ashwagandha tea is really great for minimizing stress. […]
