Guest: Jenny Garufi, Best-Selling Author, Energy Healer, and Mindfulness Teacher Host: Julie Riga

About This Episode

Jenny Garufi is the creator of The Instant Alignment, One Minute Magic, a podcast that has passed 275,000 downloads. Drawing on more than 20 years of working with people, she explains why a 15 minute daily practice often falls apart, and why a single intentional minute can change your energy, your mindset, and the direction of your entire day.

Fun Fact: Jenny's favorite food is eggplant parm. Her mother taught her how to make it, she taught her own kids, and for her it carries the taste of home.

Guest Background

Jenny is a best-selling author and mindfulness teacher who also offers Akashic readings and mentoring. Her approach centers on practical, bite-sized tools that fit into real life, helping people build self-awareness, balance, and confidence without needing extra time.

The Three One Minute Resets

• The Wake Up Reset: Before your feet leave the bed, begin with thank you and think of one thing you are looking forward to, such as a first sip of coffee or a walk with your dog.
• The Shower Reset: Use the healing element of water to stay present, thank your body as you wash, and let unstructured time spark creativity. The same applies to laundry, dishes, and cooking.
• The Bedtime Reset: Replace worry with gratitude through a nightly journal, thank your body for carrying you through the day, and speak kindly to yourself before you sleep.

Gratitude and Self-Compassion

Jenny shares how recalling a favorite moment, and truly feeling it with your senses, helps you return to joy. She also encourages listeners to notice their self-talk, celebrate their wins, and release stories that have taken enough of their energy.
