  • S4 Ep38: Resetting our Beliefs: Why have you stayed so long in that mindset?
    In this episode, Lucretia Bowman shares about three key areas to help us shake off the old mindset - wisdom, morality, and concentration.  Wisdom brings the right view, right intention, and the right speech. Morality is right actions.  Concentration is being mindful, being focused, and being aware.

  • S4 Ep37: Resetting Our Beliefs: How do you move forward from unhealthy to healthy?
    It's a struggle constantly to pick the healthier way.  For some of us, being unhealthy feels so normal that healthy ways of doing things seem incomprehensible.   Your beliefs can be just as unhealthy as eating food that clogs your arteries.  But you can move from the unhealthy way of believing to healthy beliefs.

  • S4 Ep36: Resetting Our Beliefs: Where do you need to go back to to restart a new belief system?
    You have to go back in order to go forward.  Sounds counterintuitive, but if you are carrying the baggage of a belief system that isn’t serving you well, you need to go back as far as you need to in order to find the origin story of your beliefs.

  • S4 Ep34: Resetting Our Beliefs: Why are you staying in this space?
    A person rarely changes from a place of comfort.  Trying to change is like cutting yourself open to pull out the part of yourself that is diseased.  But you have to first start by getting uncomfortable.  If you are trying to change and are feeling the struggle, you are doing it right.

  • S4 Ep32: Resetting Our Beliefs: Where did your beliefs come from?
    Where did your beliefs come from?  Have you ever asked yourself that? Lucretia reveals most beliefs are influenced by our parents, environment, education, our pain, our experiences.  Those beliefs are shaped and impacted by the general systems of the world: education, economics, entertainment, government, legal, financial, religion, political, social, defense, labor, and society.

    Be brave and ask the question.

  • S4 Ep31: Resetting Our Beliefs: What have you been believing?
    Do you fight over simple things like which way the toilet paper faces?  Or does being wrong make you feel less valuable than someone else?  In this episode of Embracing Change, we are asking the question, “What have you been believing?”  In asking that question you can start digging into Resetting our belief system.
