This week's episode was recorded Christmas morning, 2022. I wanted to have a comfortable, intimate setting to relay some positive thoughts and exercises for the new year, so I chose to record at my kitchen table. My premise is this: We can't be happy all the time, that's a delusion and an unrealistic expectation...BUT, we can have much less time being unhappy than we currently do - by a long shot. There are ways you can manage your emotions and get some control over what makes you joyful. As we head into 2023, I have an excellent journaling exercise that will help you do just that.
[00:17] Intro - Planning my best year ever [00:58] Brain surgery update [01:18] Perception of problems [02:27] Being a rational optimist [03:14] Happiness from within [04:07] Realistic expectations [04:50] Be mindful of your thoughts [05:15] Your emotional "home base" [07:04] Get free of emotional addiction [07:32] The power of gratitude [08:37] Emotions are signals [10:32] Writing exercise [11:26] My Crisis of Confidence
