  • Stop Complaining, Be Grateful, and Rewire Your Brain to Love Your Life

    Rewire your brain to love your life.

    When we repeatedly complain or engage in gossip, we wire our brains for negativity. Negativity becomes a habit that not only dampens our mood but prevents us from seeing the good even when it’s right in front of us. Gratitude highlights the good that is already in our lives and promotes confidence in more good things to come.

  • Do you want to be cool? Be uncool.

    Do you want to be cool? Be Uncool.

    By Dayna Mason

    Many of us spend a great deal of time trying to be something we’re not. We have our reasons—to fit in, to build business relationships, to win friends and influence people, to avoid scrutiny … to appear “cool.” But the quickest path to true coolness is to quit focusing on being cool.

  • Being Happily Single in a Couple Culture

    Being Happily Single in a Coupled Culture (By Dayna Mason)

    It can be challenging to be truly happy as a single person in America. Many single people are either silently (or not so silently) longing to have a plus one in their lives or are weighed down by others’ expectations of them finding a “soulmate.” And our society promotes twosomes over singles in myriad ways. So how can you be happy being single?

  • ”Affect Labeling” How to stop avoiding difficult emotions and heal
    "Affect Labeling" - How to stop avoiding difficult emotions and heal
    (By Dayna Mason)
    From an early age we’re taught to suppress our negative emotions—that they're bad and something to get rid of as soon as possible. As adults we worry that feeling them will be more painful than pretending they don’t exist. We tell ourselves to “suck it up” and distract ourselves with screen time, busyness, alcohol, drug use, etc. But avoidance compounds the pain, because then we feel bad about feeling bad.
    Our difficult emotions are trying to tell us something is wrong, and science tells us that relief can be found in simply acknowledging the message our body is communicating.

  • Are you ”Sober Curious?” Understanding the role of alcohol in our lives
    Are you “sober curious?” Understanding the role of alcohol in our lives
    (By Dayna Mason)
    As we begin the new year many of us may ask, “What do I want to do differently this year? How do I want to improve my life?”
    One possibility is to take a closer look at alcohol’s role in our lives. Maybe we join the growing trend and give it up for a set amount of time as an experiment, or maybe we just pay closer attention to what we say to ourselves about it and how it makes us feel.

    Episode 34: Be honest and become who you pretend to be
    (By Dayna Mason)
    Many of us go through life pretending rather than living. We lie to protect—not just ourselves but others. Lying is a slippery slope and damages trust. When we are dedicated to honesty, we promote meaningful relationships and become all that lying helps us pretend we already are.

  • Dayna’s Dose: Ep 33: Be the light lead with love
    Episode 33: Be the light. Lead with love.
    (By Dayna Mason)
    Today, our disagreements may be different from those of the 1960s, but the lack of love extended to those we disagree with is the same. In a country of over 300 million people, we will always disagree. But we get to choose how we disagree. The reason Martin Luther King Jr.’s mission was so powerful, transformative and still moves us so deeply today is because it’s grounded in love. He believed that “unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality.”
