Alessandra's Angle

Hello, beautiful people!

I've been away awhile but am back and will post new episodes starting this month. In this clip, I share what's been happening over the last year since I've been away. Thank you for your continued support, and to all my new listeners, thank you for following my show. I've received many notifications that you are downloading and listening to my episodes, which motivated me to come back despite the crazy year I've had. 

Thanks for listening!

Life comes at us fast. Some days are super stressful and leave us wishing we could escape to a private island away from our chaotic existence. Well, now you can (sort of)! Ok, it's not a remote island per se, but it's the next best thing - your Little Corner of Zen -a space where you can relax, unplug, and find inner peace.

The best part is that you can do this on any budget and with any space, large or small. Whether it's a dedicated room in your home, a corner of a bedroom, an office, or outdoors in your garden - the only limit is your imagination. 

Join me as I discuss the benefits of having a personal space and how you can fill your space with natural elements like plants and flowers or things that remind you of places you love to visit. The possibilities are endless, and the benefits are plentiful.

Hobbies are more than an excellent way to pass the time. Studies show that engaging in a hobby has significant mental, physical, and emotional benefits. Finding one right for you isn't as difficult as you might think. Join me as I discuss the benefits of having a hobby, the different categories that hobbies fall under, and how you can get started finding one that is fun, empowering, and meaningful.

In this episode, I discuss the personal mission statement. What it is, what it's used for, and why you'll want to create one for yourself. 

We often think of mission statements in the context of corporations, but the principle behind the corporate mission statement also applies to individuals. Join me as I share how you can harness the power of the personal mission statement in helping you identify your purpose and achieve your goals.

In this episode, I thank all of my amazing listeners for a great 2021. I also take a moment to touch on Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and its impact on millions of people worldwide. Look for links to resources on SAD that I'll be posting in the next few days.

I wish you and your loved ones a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2022!

We're told to always look for that silver lining in the clouds, or in the words of Monty Python, to "always look on the bright side of life." 

Kidding aside, being optimistic can sometimes feel like an uphill battle. It's essential to try and maintain an upbeat attitude as studies show that being happy has real benefits for our mental, physical, and emotional well-being. Is it possible, however, to be TOO optimistic? Can too much of a good thing be bad for us? The answer to both questions is yes. While being positive has its benefits, too much or unrealistic optimism can be detrimental to certain situations. 

Join me for this episode where I discuss the advantages of being optimistic and the risks associated with being too rosy in your outlook. As the saying goes, "everything in moderation!"

In this episode, I talk about how negative emotions associated with people or events from our past impact our well-being. Holding on to grudges and revisiting painful events robs us of our power. The act of forgiving is something that we do for ourselves. It helps us obtain closure and allows us to live a happier life with less stress and drama. Join me for this chat on forgiving, letting go, and reclaiming your power.

Checking in with a quick message to fill you in on what I've been up to the last few months since my last episode.  I'll be back very soon with a new episode of Alessandra's Angle.

YOU are in control.
