Lauren Fields' Fields Well Method and Resilience

Alana introduced guest Lauren Fields, a life design strategist, podcast host, and Tedx speaker, who founded the Field's Well Method. Lauren shared her mission of elevating the human experience by helping individuals find joy in everyday moments, a philosophy inspired by her own resilience following a traumatic brain injury from a horseback riding accident when she was 14. Through her personal experience, Lauren developed a coaching method to help others overcome challenges with resilience and grace. Alana and Lauren also discussed their shared experiences of overcoming adversity.

Designing Mindful and Abundant Daily Routines

Lauren shared her approach to designing a more mindful and abundant life through intentional daily routines. She emphasized the importance of starting the day with gratitude and visualization exercises, which help her set the tone for the day ahead. Alana showed interest and appreciation for this approach, highlighting that it focuses on the present moment rather than constantly looking ahead to future goals. Lauren also pointed out the value of having long-term plans, but stressed that focusing on the present and making the most of each day is equally important.

Lauren's Evening Routine and Emotional Regulation

Lauren shared her evening routine which includes setting her schedule for the next day, winding down with a warm shower, writing a gratitude journal, reading personal development books, and doing blue light therapy. Alana appreciated the importance of Lauren's routine, highlighting its role in training the mind and building discipline. They both agreed on the significance of sleep, and Lauren shared her experience of improving her sleep quality by reducing her caffeine intake. Alana emphasized that such routines and practices are crucial for emotional regulation, especially in an on-the-go culture.

Transformative Space for Self-Reflection and Recovery

Lauren shared her experience of giving a TEDx talk about her equestrian accident and its lasting effects. She emphasized the importance of using the space between falling and getting back up as a transformative space for self-reflection, rebuilding, and recovery. Alana concurred, highlighting that self-care and self-forgiveness are integral to this process. They both stressed the need to prioritize time for self-reflection and to avoid the tendency to blame oneself or others. They concluded that a healthy relationship with oneself is the foundation for ultimate potential.

Practicing Self-Forgiveness, Gratitude, and Mindfulness

Alana and Lauren discussed the importance of practicing self-forgiveness, gratitude, and mindfulness to create a positive and fulfilling daily experience. They emphasized the role of monitoring one's thoughts and visualizing positive outcomes during morning meditation. Lauren also suggested watching Dr. Joe Dispenza's show 'Rewired' on Gaia Network to understand the significance of managing negative thought patterns, as 60,000 thoughts per day, 90% of which are repetitive, can lead to being stuck in negative thought spirals. Alana highlighted the importance of challenging negative thoughts and replacing them with positive ones.

Lauren's Journey and Transformative Coaching Approach

Lauren shared her journey of returning to school to pursue a psychology master's degree after realizing the lack of soul in her previous business. She expressed her gratitude for the knowledge she has gained, which she now infuses into her coaching business and her new podcast, Field Swell, aimed at facilitating growth and transformation. Lauren's approach focuses on personal development, helping individuals clarify their visions, improve their mindsets, and build a better relationship with themselves, enabling them to pursue their dreams and overcome obstacles. Alana praised Lauren's inspiring commitment to her studies, her podcast, and her mission to assist others.
