Cultivating Kindness With Karen  Everyone has been angry. Everyone has felt the emotion of anger from both sides; the one who is angry and the one the anger is pushed towards. On the flip side, not everyone has had the same level of experience with gratitude. Gratitude is generally not felt as deeply, nor is it as prevalent in the life of those who experience a lot of anger. For many people being in the mindset, or space, of gratitude is difficult and not something that is thoughts of as a tool, or assistance, with anger. Gratitude is often more superficial and as a result its deep benefits are not experienced. When gratitude is worked with from the space of deep emotion and heartfelt intention it can be extremely transformative. Join Karen Leslie, Stress Recovery Expert and Expert Healer, to understand how using gratitude can transform almost any situation, or difficult emotion, you find yourself in. Even anger can melt away with the energy of gratitude. Be sure to listen if anger is a common emotion in your day.

Cultivating Kindness With Karen  The desire, or seeking, to fit in is part of most people in some way or form. You seek fitting in for many reasons such as fear of abandonment, seeking to be safe, creating community. You are often taught the belief that fitting in, and not rocking the boat, is the correct way to be in your family or life.

Cultivating Kindness With Karen  Resist! Resist! You put so much effort into resisting letting go of something. It can be anything; a worn out shirt, an old book you have read multiple times, a garden hose or even a thought. The mind will always find a reason, or evidence, to support holding onto something. Letting go really has a bad reputation that was created by the mind. I can hear you now saying you needed something days after you let it go in the past. Or, you changed your mind about something and then experienced something negative as a result of letting something go. It is hard-wired into you to resist letting something go. However, that does not mean it is a good things, or something that cannot change. Karen Leslie, Stress Recover Expert and Expert Healer, will share the upside to letting things go and the physical as well as the emotional benefits of letting go. It really does not need to be stressful. Learn a few tools to have on hand to make the process of letting go much easier.

Cultivating Kindness With Karen  Life is composed of phases and cycles that are in constant motion. The spirit realm is facilitating these changes in the cycles of life you pass through. The spirit realm has a very different perspective than what is held dearly by the human realm. It is very interesting to witness the response, or reaction, people have to change. It is rarely met with openness and enthusiasm. Spirit is truly here to help you; to guide you. Working with spirit is not difficult. What is difficult for many people is changing their judgments around change and spirit. There are so many beliefs and rules that often feel too much and feel like a barrier to many people. What if it was simple? What if you could cultivate a relationship with spirit to help you with changes in your life cycles? Join Karen Leslie, Stress Recovery Expert and Expert Healer, to find out how to invite in help from spirit when you are feeling tossed around by the phases and cycles in your life.
