Your mind is powerful; what you put in your mind, you can achieve it.

The human mind holds one of the most potent powers accessible to us. Unfortunately, its powers are ignored mainly unknown, so many of its abilities have become undeveloped. The power of the mind is the most incredible power you can tap into.

We’ll discuss the incredible power of the mind and what you can do to use your mind’s ability in the following.

The power of the mind is mainly dependent on your thoughts. What you think you become. The ideas you decide to entertain influence what happens to you in life. Your beliefs, minds and attitudes influence how you behave and how you respond to specific events. Even more so, your thought patterns essentially decide how you interpret certain situations. And this can make quite a difference.

Two people might share precisely the same experience, but the way they interpret what happens could be different. One person can use these lessons to grow; the other can feel the universe is hostile to them.

That’s the reason our thinking makes a vast difference. It is not important what happens to us in many situations, but how we interpret and react. As you think, your life becomes.

To make changes in the outside world, you must change yourself and your thoughts first. Your mind is like a movie screen. You decide what type of video is playing on your cerebral screen. The video that plays in your mind influences the life you’re living to a great extent.

Let’s look at the power of the mind and what you can do to control it.

The Mind’s Power

Use your thoughts to change the humanity around you. The process takes patience and practice. It is like plant seeds. Just as seeds are planted in the earth, thoughts are produced in the mind. But it takes persistence and care to grow a plant. You must water and fertilize the ideas you want to create.

When you slowly plant and take care of the thoughts you wish to manifest, they slowly come to roots in your mind. When this happens, your thoughts start to flow into your subconscious mind. It is where the power of the subconscious mind starts to take effect. Over time, it begins to impact your behaviour. By doing so, it helps you take the required steps for the realization of your goals.

When you plant beneficial and supportive thoughts, they assist you in the accomplishment of your goals. But nearly all people are not aware of the process, so they ignore it. As a result, many obstructive beliefs and mindsets grow roots in their minds and negatively influence their behaviour.

Everyone is looking for Happiness. Most people do not realize Happiness is a choice! It is up to each of us to find, cultivate, and shine our light.

Happiness is not about fame, money, career, and everything else society wants you to think it is.

The root of Happiness comes from inside yourself. Happiness is not something that comes to you because you want to be happy. It is something you create; by changing how you react to events around and inside yourself. Your attitude, behaviours are everything to consider when you strive for Happiness. Adopt a positive attitude, and life turns out to be a rewarding adventure. Smile more; it is contagious others will smile back to you.

The root of Happiness is the core of who you are. To be happy, you need to align with yourself.

When you understand and comprehend, you cannot buy or get Happiness by doing nothing; You start to ask yourself some crucial existential questions.

Knowing what you really want from life, your purpose, and what makes you truly happy; You have your answer.

Ask yourself what you want; it is crucial to create a happy life with a purpose. It would be best to live your life to your terms and not what society expects from you.

True, job security and money are necessary. Still, it's challenging to live a happy life when you don't do what you really desire to do. Life goes fast, and regret is easy to feel or blame yourself not to reach what you want.

Ask yourself where you stand, where you want to go. This is how you explore what gets your heart to vibrate. Are you happy accomplishing what you do now? Is that your passion?

To get your answer, you must listen to your thoughts and your gut and your heart. For that, meditation, walk in nature both clean your mind, and you can think straight. Self-care is vital at any time, as it's the way to go when you need to make some critical decision or find an answer. A calm mind brings many options and solutions.

You need to know who you are to be truly happy, and you do not find your answer with noise around you. Please take a lot of time by yourself, and you will get your answer. You may need time, be kind to yourself and get support if you feel stuck.

Today, I want to discuss love and the power love has on people. It's not only love in a relationship but love from people around you and self-love.

The two essential things in life are loving and accepting yourself and true love with people your bonds. It brings you peace, security, and support.

Many people are confused about love in the current society, where people love things instead of loving others. You were lye when they told you money brings you happiness. Happiness comes from a loving heart and not from materials. Usually, it's often late in life when people finally understand unless they are awake.

People move on without feeling love, from family, friends. Love, support, and respect are love.

What truly matters: "loving materials, which bring satisfaction for a short time for having them or feeling the love and support from people and having a genuine connection"?

Nothing can replace the feeling of love, not even money. I met many people in my life who had all the money they want; they were not happy. They miss a deep connection with others, the love, support, true intimacy, and the love and self-esteem which come from them.

Love yourself to love others. What does that mean?

It is accepting who you are. Loving yourself is being true to yourself, meaning listening to your thoughts and gut, loving without limitation who you are or who you begin to be. Life is in constant movement; you change and go through a different stage in life. Same if you want it or don't. Life is a cycle.

When you love yourself, you shine, are self-confident, and have good self-esteem as you know your values and boundaries. You are happy being alone and enjoy recharging and taking care of yourself by doing self-care. Learn to be compassionate towards you and realize this made your compassion towards others more powerful. Be kind to yourself first, like that you distribute kindness everywhere you go.

By taking those steps, you can love others as you understand the power of love, with support, kindness, non-judgment, and empathy. But also, you don't burn yourself by giving too much and forgetting about yourself. Your inside balance is essential to keep at any time.

Your value and self-worth need to be in your mind. Forget yourself about your past experiences, take them as a lesson and move on. Be mindful of being in the present moment; it helps you accept who you are and understand that living in the past of the future only brings anxiety and fears. Never let others tell you what you can and can't do, and don't let the opinion of others get in the way of the love you have for yourself. Your happiness comes first.

When you take care of yourself, you feel and look better; you attract positivity and good vibration — it all begins within you, nobody else.

Once you succeed at loving yourself, you can love someone else entirely. Cultivating a sense of true self-love is a process, and it isn't always easy. It's something that you need to work on every day, but it is worth it in the end.

Resilience is the capacity to adapt to challenging situations. When stress, adversity, or trauma hits, you experience anger, grief, and pain. Still, you keep operating — both physically and psychologically. However, Resilience is not about dealing with something difficult, being indifferent or figuring it out on your own. But by reaching to others for support; is a crucial part of being resilient.

Resilience protects you from several mental health conditions, such as depression and anxiety. Resilience helps compensate for issues that add to the risk of mental health conditions by improving your coping ability.

Resilience means to adapt to life's hardships and setbacks. Resilience is the mental quality that lets people hit by life's adversities and come back stronger. Instead of allowing the struggles their encounters to beat and drain them, resilient people find a way to change direction and focus on their goals.

Resilience is a crucial skill for success in life. Without being resilient, we cannot push through hard times and bounce back stronger to face life. Resilient people utilize their skills and strengths to cope and recover from problems and challenges. Resilient people face life's difficulties instead of falling into desolation or hiding from problems with unhealthy coping strategies.

It does not mean that they experience less distress, grief, or anxiety than other people. Instead, they apply healthy coping skills to handle difficulties in ways that foster strength and growth.

They understand that setbacks happen, and life is hard and painful sometimes. They experience the negative emotions that come after a tragedy. Still, their mental attitude allows them to work through these feelings and recover faster. It is the reason that Being Resilient is essential to have in the toolbox.

Thank you for listening; I truly appreciate it. Share the love and the knowledge!

Next week is about love. The Importance of feeling and sharing love.

To Heal from Trauma is a personal journey by placing pain to take a rest. It gets you ready to go on with your life. But make sure to do Self-Care to cope with your feelings and heal your body. Rely on other people for help, reach out to friends,  family, or professionals.

To know how to heal from Trauma, you need to understand Trauma, the types, and finally, how to heal.

Trauma is any experience that causes extreme physical or psychological stress reactions. I can be at one or many events. It's an experience that threatens or harms an individual and severely negatively affects someone's physical, emotional, social, or spiritual well-being.

Many situations are traumatic or highly stressful. These situations are often unexpected and outside of someone's control.

You have a different reaction to Trauma. Mostly, people show immediate effects after a traumatic event. Some people experience fears, vulnerability, and physical stress reactions, including changes in the brain and body. Often these changes are temporary.

For some people, the effect of Trauma disrupts their lives, requiring some intervention and care. When people use Resilience, they often work through a traumatic event or experience without therapy.

When people are resilient and use the skills, disorders are not likely to show. Many people get overwhelmed when they don't do Self-Care or see a Coach/ Therapist to support them with stress and anxiety. The reason we saw many people dealing with ASD and PTSD.

ASD- Acute Stress Disorder is a normal response to a highly stressful situation. It may include facing death, serious injury, or sexual violation. ASD occurs because of one specific event rather than the experience of long-term or chronic exposure to Trauma.

ASD symptoms include numbness, loss of memories of the event, flashback, sleep disorder, concentration, and angry feelings. The symptoms appear two days to 4 weeks after the event and can be resolve in 4 weeks.

PTSD-Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is the most common Trauma related disorder. The symptoms last more than four weeks and are extremely draining. People develop a condition after an intensely traumatic event; as life-threatening, injury, or sexual violence. It disturbs people of all ages, cultures, and gender. The symptoms can go away by doing Self-care. Still, in many cases, the intervention of a professional is required to get support and help.

Next week, learn about Resilience and how to be resilient.

A relationship is about friendship, sexual attraction, intellectual compatibility, and love. Love is the glue that keeps a relationship solid.

Love has different meanings for people, and  It's also about the emotions we have, the feelings we get with the special one. The personality and the right mindset are also important. Not everyone has the same experience with love. But we are all looking for the right person who will open our hearts and fall in love. It should bring you joy, security, and a sense of belonging. True love is a mix of passion, intimacy and commitment to be present in a relationship.

Love keeps a relationship healthy and stable; without love, you do not have a relationship. You may be sexually attracted to your partner, but that does not mean you love your partner. Not having a base of loving feelings for your partner, once the sexual spark dies, you will become bored; It's call lust. People are confused between lust, attraction, and companionship.

To define love is one of the most profound emotions humans experience. It is a combination of attraction and closeness. The person we feel attracted to or close to is the person we are in love with. Love is a feeling of attraction or affection.

To build and have a strong bond as a couple take time. Nothing happens in one night. It’s only when you and your partner share your thoughts, feelings, dreams, goals, fears and hopes. The relation grows deeper.

Love is generous; you give to each other without expecting a return. It is what it takes for a deeper partnership. You do that to show your support & love to each other.

Being in love means desiring your partner's happiness, admiring them for the individual they are, and feeling motivated to be a better person. When you are in love, your relationship goes beyond a simple physical attraction.

Trust is an important word with a vast meaning. When people gain our Trust or break it, it matters. We say we trust people or that somebody violated our Trust. But what does it mean? How do they damage Trust?

Trust is built with actions, and when individuals treat with respect and care what is important to you. It is also easy to break the trust and not easy to rebuild it.

To talk about Trust, you must understand the meaning; It stands for boundaries, reliability, accountability, integrity, non-judgment, and generosity. Understanding the components of Trust and how they work help you understand how we trust or don't trust.

We start with the definition of Trust. Follow by How to earn trust. The ways we build trust, with an understanding of the Importance of Trust and what to do to regain trust.

Trust definition by the dictionary of Cambridge:

· To believe that someone is good and honest and will not harm you, or that something is safe and reliable.

· To hope and expect that something is true

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/trust

Trust is a feeling of confidence and security. It is a key to all human relationships, including romantic partnerships, family, business, politics, and medical practices.

Without Trust, you have nothing, as It is the foundation of all partnerships.  Whether it keeps your word, confesses to someone, or delivers on time, Trust is the glue that holds everything together. But Trust takes time to develop, and it only grows when people feel comfortable and safe.

Fostering Trust helps create an environment where communication is open and honest. Problems are solved before harm is done. Trusting, and feeling trusted, makes a deeper connection and a shared sense of purpose. It brings the best in people.

Trust gives everyone the chance to grow and demonstrate themselves. Trust is earned and not given.

Trust is earned over time by being authentic and not trying to be someone else via a series of positive experiences. You don't need to be perfect to earn Trust. You receive it by giving what you promise to people -- every time.

These are some qualities and behaviours to have to gain trust-

-Clear boundaries: It is vital to be clear about your limits so others understand and respect them. We must understand others' boundaries, so Trust flows both ways.

-Be reliable: Reliability is when somebody follows what they say. Words without action are nothing. It goes with your boundaries. Do not commit to something or someone you don't want.

-Accountable: We trust people who acknowledge their mistakes, apologize, and make changes. We are responsible for the way we behave and act.

- Be Trustful: We cannot trust someone who shares our personal information with others without our permission. We need to keep the secrets, stories, and knowledge of other people in confidence so they can trust us. Suppose someone tells us confidential information about someone else. In that case, we know we can't trust them as they do the same to everyone else.

- Honesty: It's living matching our values. Plus, when we live with integrity, we build trust with others and ourselves.

- Non-judgmental: Non-judgment is an act of kindness and compassion towards self and others. We make peace for ourselves and others and bring healing instead.

Having healthy self-esteem can influence your motivation, mental well-being, and overall quality of life. However, having self-esteem that is too high or too low can be problematic. Better understanding your unique level of self-esteem can help you strike a balance that is just right for you.

Self-Esteem is essential; it is one of your most critical values. It is excellent for your well-being mentally and physically. It is a highly positive factor in life; and associated with achievement, Happiness, good relationships, and satisfaction. It brings joy, vitality, and well-being to your life. Self-esteem is also loving yourself, respecting yourself and others, showing emotions and empathy by knowing yourself, your value, personality, and loving yourself. It means accepting who you are and living your best life.

Having Low Self-Esteem is nothing wrong and can happen to everyone during our lifetime. We all must work to keep our self-esteem up. We will see how we can keep our spirit up a bit later in the episode today. It may bring people depression, anxiety, panic attack. The reason is they are not aware of being "Mindful. "Often, they are people's pleasure and don't know how to say "No." Which brings unhappiness, a feeling of worthless. They are often shy and do not want to hurt people; their Self-Confidence is low. Without the ability to see their worth, skills, and potential, they do not explore by fear.

Too Much Self-Esteem is not good, especially when people show signs of arrogance, blaming others for everything that happens to them without showing any accountability. They are not thankful and do not show any gratitude as they feel everything is due to them. They think they are perfect and do not want to change. They do not accept criticism often, and as a result, they have issues with relationships in general. They often bully other and are great manipulator to gain what they want. It is a sign of Narcissism as they behave in a self-centred, arrogant, and manipulative manner; they are not happy and often destroy everything around them by jealousy. It isolates them as healthy people do not want to be around them. We call them Toxic People.

If you listen to the podcast about Happiness, you know toxic people do not bring positive energy. They will drain you in a minute. They often complain about everything and anyone but do nothing to change their situation. Instead, they wait for others to do something for them.

Self-esteem, self-confidence are two priceless values to have to live a happy and free life. Self-esteem comes from you and the thoughts in your mind, not from anything else, like Happiness. Never forget, your mind is powerful; you create your life.

When you know yourself, you gain self-esteem and self-confidence to do what makes "you" happy. You do not need affirmation from others to know your worth. You also do not need the approval to go on in your life. Knowing your value make you strong, independent, and free to do what please you.

You are your best friend in life and enjoy being by yourself. You are not afraid to be alone and need some quiet time to be the best of you in society and family. It is Healthy and good for your well-being.

BY knowing your worth, you follow your path toward Happiness and take action to stay happy. It means choosing your tribe carefully and being around people. Read more at www.catherinea.com
