Spiritual Sense is a weekly conversation between Michael Mackintosh and Shireen Chada, two longtime meditation teachers, on how to quiet an overthinking mind, recharge your soul, and bring more peace into everyday life.
Each episode takes one real spiritual idea and turns it into something you can actually use, drawing on ancient wisdom and decades of practice. Warm, practical, and grounded: wisdom you can live, not just think about.

I love listening to Michael and Shireen about practical little tidbits about how to remind us about our higher purpose as we navigate through the day to day. They are great at covering heavy topics and teaching you how to get through tough times, anxiety, depression, grief, etc - making the topics discussed so much lighter and easy to understand and put into practice. I always leave with some positive perspective after listening and feel so motivated about life in general... Also I like the natural course of jokes they build in - not feeling super scripted but just a conversation between 2 wise souls that want to serve and help the rest of us that are trying to find our way. Thanks to both of you - great chemistry together, I sometimes laugh out loud when listening because of the cute jokes and how you make daily struggles feel less mundane and give us perspective of making it more like a game!! Thank you both and god bless you!!

The Spiritual Recharge podcast is true to its name. Every time I listen to an episode, I feel reconnected, re-grounded, and I’m reminded of my true essence as a spiritual being. I love Michael’s, openness, wisdom, intelligence, and vulnerability. I’ve also loved being introduced to the very grounded wisdom of Shareen! Thank you both for sharing so generously of your hearts, minds, and souls. It has made all the difference for me. 🙏🏽🩷⭐️
