In this special experiential episode, Cara invites you to take part in her Happier Workshop, a hands-on journey designed to help you feel about 15% happier, starting now.
You’ll begin with a light, flexible meditation to tune into your body, breath, and surroundings, then move through a series of guided reflection prompts that invite you to write, notice, and shift. Each step helps re-frame stress, soften self-criticism, and strengthen your connection to what truly feels good. The session closes with a soothing guided energy healing that supports emotional balance, physical ease, and a deeper sense of self-alignment.
Cara shares practical tools for rewiring old mental loops (no perfection required), from journaling and bilateral tapping to re-framing negative thoughts as dashboard lights pointing you toward clarity. This workshop is a grounded reminder that happiness isn’t a destination, it’s a skill you can practice, play with, and expand one gentle percentage point at a time.

We often treat “purpose” like a finish line, tied to productivity, careers, or achievements. In this episode of Playful Spirituality, Cara welcomes healer and author Amy J. Hellman to explore a more playful, embodied way of living with purpose.
Amy shares her practice of “following her smiles” — letting her body’s authentic responses point the way toward clarity, joy, and fulfillment. Together, she and Cara reimagine purpose as something we are always creating, an intersection of passion, service, and presence rather than a job title or outcome.
They talk about:
The in-between phases of life — career shifts, parenthood, identity changes — as fertile ground for curiosity and creation
How unlearning productivity culture makes room for purpose as presence, even in something as simple as a genuine smile
Seeing the unknown as a buffer zone for observation and gentle redirection
Amy’s origin story of sudden hearing loss, the letter that changed everything, and how it led her to Theta Healing
Cara also reflects on her own identity shifts through leaving a long-term job and becoming a mother, and how disorienting transitions can be deeply transformative.
Amy closes with what’s next: her upcoming book Dump Reflections: Essays on Breaking Up, Breaking Down, and Recycling Yourself, and a course on direct communication with self, others, and Source.
This conversation is an invitation to let go of striving, follow your smiles, and discover purpose in the spaces in between.
Amy's Bio:
Amy J. is an educator, author, mother, and healing facilitator for students of all ages world-wide. Author of "An Instructor's Guide to Educating with Kindness and Leading with Love," and others, she believes in our human potential for great change and growth. She currently lives with her son on Hawaii island.

Periods: one thing everyone knows about but nobody wants to talk about. Cara’s not having it. In this hilariously taboo-busting episode of Playful Spirituality, she shares how she ditched the secrecy, casually announcing her period to a grocery store checker and, yes, using menstrual blood as fertilizer for her houseplants (spoiler: they’re thriving).
Between laughs and raised eyebrows, Cara dives into some big truths:
Your cycle isn’t an obstacle, it’s a training plan. Syncing workouts with menstrual phases can supercharge energy, resilience, and performance.
The wild practice of using menstrual blood as a natural fertilizer — and why her plants love it.
The cycle offers cues to partners about the kinds of support women need in different phases.
The four phases of the menstrual cycle and how each one shapes energy, emotions, and movement.
Her own experiences with hormone sensitivity and the impact it’s had on her mental health.
Along the way, she explains how the four stages of the menstrual cycle mirror the four seasons, each with its own rhythms of energy, emotion, and rest. Expect frank talk, funny stories, and a healthy dose of side-eye for a culture that treats menstruation like a shameful secret.
This episode is equal parts education and mischief, guaranteed to leave you a little wiser, a little braver, and maybe plotting how to out your own cycle at the checkout line.

What if money is a form of love?
In this episode of Playful Spirituality, Cara talks with Hanna Bier, author of Wealth From Within and founder of Money Bliss, about healing our relationship with money from the inside out.
Hanna shares her journey from a high-pressure fashion career to a life centered on coaching, creativity, and her peaceful daily rhythms in a small village. Along the way, she discovered that the struggles we face — with money and beyond — can transform into growth, abundance, and deeper love for ourselves and others.
This conversation invites listeners to rethink money as an expression of love, shaped by early experiences and our capacity to receive. Hanna introduces ideas like "soul money numbers" and the power of visualization to unlock authentic financial flow. She reminds us that seeking financial freedom can be a deeply spiritual path, rooted in healing and self-trust.
If you’ve ever felt conflicted about money or wondered how it fits into a wholehearted life, this episode offers insights that just might change the way you think — and feel — about wealth.

What if your two-year-old could teach you the most profound nervous system regulation technique you’ve ever heard?
In this solo episode of Playful Spirituality, Cara reflects on the tender, tangled experience of coming down from the high of her wedding in Costa Rica and how her toddler’s one-word wisdom became the nervous system cue she didn’t know she needed.
From dreamy days surrounded by loved ones on the beach to the messy reintegration of daily life, Cara digs into the emotional whiplash of big transitions…and how her little one’s honest expression of overwhelm illuminated her approach to her own.
You’ll walk away with a simple, grounding nervous system check-in you can use anywhere (yes, even mid-meltdown), a powerful reframe for handling stress with compassion, and a gentle invitation to pause when life gets loud.
Blending lighthearted insight with embodied wisdom, Cara invites you to treat your stress responses with tenderness, follow your body’s cues like a wise toddler, and shake it off just like the animals do.

The answer may surprise you.
In this episode of Playful Spirituality, we explore the mystical dance between free will and destiny.

What if everything you thought you knew about postpartum was wrong?
In this deeply personal episode, Cara shares the unexpected challenges she faced after giving birth. She thought postpartum would be about simply bouncing back—losing weight, a quick recovery, and returning to her old self. But the reality was far more complicated—and transformative.
Cara opens up about recovering from a C-section, dealing with her baby’s lip and tongue tie, and the crucial need for rest (especially for pelvic floor health). She also dives into how hormonal roller coasters and brain fog affect mental health.
But it’s not all struggles—Cara explores the empowering self-knowledge and depth of resilience all of these challenges have unearthed.

Most people go about their lives reacting to the circumstances they are in and the events they experience.
There is another way to live, a way of curating how you feel and creating the reality around you on purpose.
In this episode of the Playful Spirituality podcast Cara dives into the distinction between these two; reacting versus creating.
She shares a personal (and a little bit embarrassing) experience of this recently in her life, to demonstrate how normal it is even for those who know how to create on purpose, to sometimes slip back into just reacting.
If this is you lately don’t worry!
You may not even realize that you have slipped into reacting instead of creating, and that life could feel so much better than it does!
Cara teaches the three very simple steps to gently come back into a place of creating your life on purpose.
Give a listen and see just how easy it can be to move back into the driver's seat.

Aloha my friends,
We are opening the new year with a new podcast episode I think you’ll find helpful.
We all want to be in flow with life.
You know what I mean, it’s that feeling when…
~ life seems to be working with you instead of against you
~ things happen with ease
~ it all kind of magically jives and feels like very little efforting and no pushing against
~ you feel resourced and capable of what’s on your plate
~ life feels enjoyable and you feel present for it
~ people want to be around you and think to themselves “I’ll have what she’s having”
Every coach and guru has a specific prescription for how to get into flow with life. Much of it is really good stuff.
—> What gets confusing is that the prescription of do’s and don’ts to get you into flow are specific to our exact circumstances!
That’s right, it’s different for each of us and different in the phases of life we are in.
So what worked last year or always before in your life might actually do the opposite right now.
In this episode that’s what we are exploring.
We will dive into the phases of life and learn what your particular phase is and how to be in flow with it.
I hope you enjoy it and send me a message to let me know what you figured out after you listen!

“How do you get over God trauma aka religious trauma so you can have an intimate relationship with the divine again?”
In answer to this listener's question, Cara invited a very special guest, Sarah Chann, for an intimate and enlightening conversation about dealing with religious trauma and re-establishing a genuine connection with the divine.
Sarah shares her personal journey of dealing with anger towards the divine, her experiences with faith and trauma, and how she came to her ultimate understanding of God as a force of unconditional love.
Sarah's work, which is grounded in the body, emphasizes addressing past traumas and unresolved issues that are oftentimes stored in the body.
Cara and Sarah discuss the concept of religious or God trauma, and how to overcome it through a deep, intimate relationship with the divine.
They also discuss their individual spiritual paths, the concept of God, unconditional love, sin, and their approach to understanding and experiencing the divine through nature and their internal sense of spirit.
As Cara promised in the episode, here’s a guided meditation for Feeling Divine Love. This is an excerpt from a live call.

Excited to finally share the beautiful stories of her miscarriages and the evental birth of her son, Cara divulges her very personal journey over the last seven years.
This episode is truly an Intuitive’s story of meeting her baby.
A very different take on miscarriage than the norm, it is Cara’s hope that it will uplift, and bring some understanding and soothing to a difficult topic.
In this episode of the Playful Spirituality Podcast, host Cara Viana tells the story of the first time she met her son, more than 7 years before his birth. She recounts the beautiful and moving stories of her miscarriages and the lessons her baby taught her through each one.
In talking with people about her experiences over the past years, Cara has found that nearly everyone is touched in some way by miscarriage or abortion, though people rarely speak about it. In her wide open and sometimes irreverent way, she brings light to often unspoken topics like these. Sharing both the fear and the beauty, the comedy and the triumph, she hopes that talking about it will ease some of the shame and isolation that so many feel.
Cara explores the topic of miscarriage and motherhood from a different perspective; being an intuitive she sees the world with an alternate lens. This episode is a spiritual take on miscarriage (or abortion— they are energetically similar) as well as a personal journey. A story of beauty, hope and meeting one very sure of himself, little dude.

Join Cara Viana on this episode of the Playful Spirituality Podcast as she returns from a maternity leave hiatus to candidly share her experiences as a new mom.
This episode is a raw and honest reflection on the unexpected challenges, joys, and surprises that come with giving birth and raising a newborn, including sudden vision loss, intense insecurity, social awkwardness, and finding unexpected pleasure in some seemingly mundane (even gross) and intense moments.
Cara gives uncommon insights into the physical and emotional transformations people undergo during pregnancy and in motherhood, and the absolute necessity of learning to receive and care for yourself too.
She also acknowledges the importance of motherhood in society, recognizes societal undervaluation of the role, and shares how her experiences have turned her into something she never thought would be. She demonstrates how she is truly cherishing every moment with her personalized view on parenting.
Tune in for an infusion of playful spirituality that might surprise and comfort you if you're a parent, ever considered becoming one, or know people in your life who have gone through this journey.

One of the biggest unspoken questions in manifestation is “When do I take action and when do I go for a walk in the garden?”
Well, that’s exactly what Cara's breaking down in this week’s podcast.
“You can’t just sit around meditating and expect success to happen for you”
True.
“You can’t just effort your way to success, you have to line up energy”
Also true.
Manifestation gets a bad wrap sometimes, and so does hustle/action/just getting it done.
There are unhealthy and wildly ineffective patterns of behavior at either far end of the spectrum. Most of us lean toward one or the other (by the way).
Give a listen to the podcast to discover how to truly harness action and manifestation together for the greatest result with the most effective effort.
