Inspired Action Alchemy

"Rather than being your thoughts and emotions, be the awareness behind them"

• Our newest addition to the podcast, Five Element Friday!
• What are Triggers? How do they effect our Tentacles?
• Our 3 Needs: Survival, Connection, Individuality
• 4 Common Triggers: Fear, Guilt, Loneliness, Annoyances (there can be many more!)

"Triggers are feelings."

"You sleep if you're sleep deprived, you eat if you're hungry, and maybe you say the big scary two-letter word "N-O!""

"We first experience a feeling, which is a normal response, but then the past comes up and reels its ugly Kraken head! We remember the past circumstances (Tentacles) that this Trigger is reminding us of."

The post 053 Happy Tendrils to You! appeared first on Inspired Action Podcast.

"We have everything, but we can't find what we want most, happiness."

• Immortality
• Interpretation of Quantum physics theories
• Wu Wei
• Be Learn Do model
• Left vs. Right brain
• Masculine and feminine qualities
• The Home Palace
• Fear
• Trust with a capital T

"This is what blows you away. The scientific method tells you to question everything other than the scientific method tells you."

"If they didn't question that assumption, and they decided the world was flat, then we would never been here today on a Zoom call."

"Doing is a very masculine quality. Being is a very feminine quality. To achieve that flow, you want to first allow yourself to completely be… is to connect not only just with what's inside you but with everything outside you and everyone outside you and every living being outside you… to feel the truth… which unfortunately is never found in thoughts."

The post 051 Mo Gawdat – Solve For Happy – Part 1 appeared first on Inspired Action Podcast.

"What is happy for one person can be totally different for the next person."

• The interview coming up next with the author of "Solve For Happy," Mo Gawdat!
• A review of the motivations for each Element
• His Holiness The Dalai Lama and his book, The Art of Happiness
• What Happiness means to each Elemental Type
• Water: Positive expectations or anticipation
• Metal: Freedom to be in Wu Wei
• Earth: A deep sense of inner belonging
• Fire: The light and love inside of you
• Wood: Engagement and peace within an activity

"Each Elemental type has a different way to be happy."

"Each Element is happiest when they transcend to a level of connection to the divine in their unique Elemental way."

"As long as there is a lack of the inner discipline that brings calmness of mind, no matter what external facilities or conditions you have, they will never give you the feeling of joy and happiness that you are seeking. On the other hand, if you possess this inner quality, a calmness of mind, a degree of stability within, then even if you lack various external facilities that you would normally consider necessary for happiness it is still possible to live a happy and joyful life."

The post 049 The BIG Astrology question! Plus, other Listeners' Q&A's that will rock your world! appeared first on Inspired Action Podcast.

Is your child having trouble in school or at home? Have you thought about medication or used it with not-so- great results? In our society today, schools can be tough for all of the Five Elements to maneuver through. Home life and school life can often lead to confusion for students, parents, teachers and all those who want to make a real difference in your kid's life. In this "educational" episode, we have special guest Mia Gray, a school adjustment counselor, who has been practicing the Five Element theories with her students for years!

"In this society, what falls into normal is very narrow."

By Jaye McElroy and Leta Herman | Follow: Facebook and Instagram In this Pod, we talked about:

• Wood children understanding things fast, getting bored easily, and needing leadership roles
• How to help Fire children to be social and their mood swings
• Earth children having more trouble at home than in school, and why Earth children can get teased and sometimes bullied
• Why Metal children listen without looking and can sometimes feel like outsiders
• Why Water children might be the most misunderstood and their need for movement

Thought Quotes:

"Waters have too much attention, it's just not focused on you."

"Metals don't get a bad rap, but a weird rap."

"Help Earths to be their authentic selves."
