Do you struggle with finding balance between work and your personal life? It often feels like there’s not enough time in the day, which is the pattern of most days for many of us... So how do we find work-life balance? If we can figure this out, it can help to reduce stress and prevent burnout in both the workplace and personal life. Work-life balance involves juggling workplace stress with the daily pressures of family, friends, and time for you. While it may sound impossible, we believe it can be found (at least to some degree) with effort. Join us as we explore what work-life balance means and the effects, both positive and negative, as it impacts many areas of our lives.

Throughout your lifetime, you’ve built up beliefs about the world. What’s fascinating is the physical effect of these beliefs. The more you reinforce them, the more pronounced the impact on your body.

If you slouch; if you tend to look at the ground when you walk; if you carry extra weight; if you repeatedly have problems with a specific body part – then your body is exhibiting the physical manifestation of limiting beliefs surrounding your self-image.

Limiting beliefs often show up as persistent agitation, queasiness, anxiety, depression, indecision, quick temper, and other emotional issues. Another important clue is the way you talk about yourself, to yourself, to other people, and about the world. Are you mostly negative? Mostly positive? Do you complain and blame?

Join us as we explore limiting beliefs, where they come from, how we cling to them, how they affect us, and maybe even how to let them go. Then subscribe to this channel and visit http://jayacollective.com to learn more about our work (reiki, tarot, astrology and more)

Authenticity as a character trait means a lot of things to a lot of people. For some, it is nothing more than a justification to say or do whatever they want. For others, it’s a little more subtle. Being authentic is not a performance as much as an honest relationship with ourselves. On the whole, we don’t like or trust people who come across as phony and false. We seek friends and colleagues who are genuine.

Often we judge a person's authenticity by how aligned their actions and values are or by the passion and commitment they have for what they say and do. We feel comfort in just being, standing up for what we believe in, and speaking our truth even if it is not what others want to hear.

It begs the question, authentic to what? What is authenticity and how do we embody it? Join us as we explore authenticity, its meaning and its impact on our lives.

“Money is the root of all evil.” “More money more problems.” “Money makes the world go round.” We all carry unconscious beliefs about money. What are yours? Do you believe you’d be happier with more of it, or less? Do you believe you don’t deserve to spend it or feel entitled to buy yourself whatever you want? No matter where you are on the socioeconomic ladder, there’s always someone higher or lower than you.

Money plays a significant role in our lives – like it or not. Let’s explore our belief systems and relationship with money.

Join us this week as we discuss the taboo topic of money; how we think about it, how we handle it, how it handles us, and how to grow from it.

We live in a culture that worships independence. After all, independence is as strength and freedom! Many of us even demonize any degree of dependence as though need or assistance will serve as a crack in the windshield that spreads over time, weakening the entire structure of who we are, and ultimately ensuring our eventual collapse. But will dependence really make us fragile beings, or is it possible it actually strengthens us?

To avoid the judgments of others (and ourselves), we may try to conceal the reliance that is intrinsic to our nature as humans. We are, after all interdependent, social beings that require involvement with others to meet our essential physical and emotional needs and to grow and thrive. The definition of dependence is “reliance on something or someone.” The definition is neutral; but for so many, “dependency” is a dirty word. In our “me” centered, culture, it is a widespread belief that to achieve maturity we must become entirely autonomous and self-sufficient. If we allow others to become dependent on us, or we are dependent on them, it is viewed as negative or even pathological.

What is trust? Is it an act of faith or is it a sense of reliability based on past experience, facts, and data? Trust is both an emotional and logical act. We feel trust. Emotionally, it's where you expose your vulnerabilities to people believing they will not take advantage of your openness. Logically, it's where you have assessed the probabilities of gain and loss, calculated expected utility based on hard performance data, and concluded that a person will behave in a predictable manner. In practice, trust is a bit of both. Trust begins as an act of faith and evolves into a belief based on evidence. I trust you because I have faith in human nature and I have experienced your trustworthiness.

Join us as we explore the many ways we can define trust, and learn more about our work with tarot, astrology and Reiki at http://jayacollective.com

So often, the strength displayed by people is a guise to cover up hidden wounds. We try to present ourselves as strong, independent beings, as confident and un-phased by events around us. In reality, it is often a facade, a cry for attention rather than an element of fortitude.

Strength is not drawn from repression or hiding our wounds. It's not in offense or defense or tied to our ego. It's not having it all together or always knowing the answer.

Strength can lay it all bare; and as hard as it is to believe, it garners either reverence from those who understand it, or is perceived with intimidation. Strength is mutable, willing, and able to accept what is dealt, and deal with it, with grace. You can find it in the depths of vulnerability, in the throws of humility, and that blissful moment when you finally let go and accept what lies before you.
