Finding Your Casual Magic - A podcast by UnJaded Jade - Sundays
Categories:
Hi friends, welcome to this brand new cosy lil corner of the internet!!! The first EVER episode of ✨ Finding your Casual Magic ✨ (ngl I’m a lil scared hehe). Casual magic is about how we find beauty in the mundane everyday. We tend to look forward to the 1% of days in our lives to find joy, like the birthday, the wedding, the job promotion. But honestly, 99% of our lives are just the same routines — and how sad would it be if we only chose to experience joy 1% of the time? Casual magic is about looking for these tiny moments in every day that are casually magic. In my first episode I open with a short guided meditation which allows you to settle in and feel grounded in the otherwise hectic, whirlwind of our lives. I then share with you my journey on how I became a studytuber, the inspiration behind my channel name and how I discovered Casual Magic. I share examples of when Casual Magic has played an important part in my life, including how I managed to balance my increasing workload and university life whilst navigating mental health challenges within my family. I close the episode with my ‘Casual Magic of the Week’ followed by intention setting for the week ahead. Grab a journal or open your notes app and join me as we ask ourselves… What went well this week? What is a little win that I can celebrate? What is something that challenged me this week? What is something I would change coming into next week? Based on these reflections, choose a one word intention for your coming week. I am so grateful that you’re here and I hope you love this first episode, and if no one has told you today, you are enough. 💛 Timestamps: 00:00: Introduction and welcome 01:06: Commitment to be present 02:06: Meditation Session 04:40: Podcast and Personal Introduction 09:25: Explanation of 'Casual Magic' term and the podcast intentions 12:51: Strategies for fostering mindfulness 14:00: Commitment to vulnerability and shared humanity 15:04: Further exploration of the 'Casual Magic' concept 17:50: Promoting the practice of Casual Magic for daily happiness 19:00: Discussion on brain rewiring and behaviour change (long term potentiation) 22:01: Strategies for combating negativity and self-limiting beliefs 22:25: Small steps towards self-affirmation 23:34: Personal perception of the world 25:13: Perception through unique experiences 27:27: Making intentional effort to view the positive 30:50: Introduction to personal experiences related to casual magic 31:43: Balancing workload and university life 36:06: Dealing with a family member's mental health 41:16: Reflection on the week and intention setting 43:39: Gratitude expression and closing message. ✨ CONTACT ME ✨ Email: [email protected] Business Enquiries: [email protected] Instagram - @unjadedjade TikTok: @unjadedjade This is Finding Your Casual Magic ✨ with UnJaded Jade Produced by The Podcast Guys Theme music by Francesca Lu For more Finding Your Casual Magic, go to @casualmagicpodcast
