In this episode of Wildly Unplugged, I sit down with Elizabeth Minton, a psychotherapist, Qigong instructor, and founder of The Calming Ground, a space dedicated to helping people slow down, reconnect with nature, and cultivate mindfulness.
Practical Tips to Unplug & Connect with the Wild:
If you can’t escape to the forest, Elizabeth suggests simple ways to incorporate nature into your day:
🔌 Breathe with awareness – Visualize each inhale as a gift from the trees and each exhale as your gift back.
🔌 Keep a small nature object nearby – Holding a stone, pinecone, or plant can help you feel grounded.
🔌 Take a sit spot break – Find a quiet place outside, even if it’s just for a few minutes, and observe what’s around you.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
