Matt Gardiner LIVE

*from our Zoom LIVE Event from March 30th, 2022:

As we enter spring and COVID seems to be winding down, there is a lot of accumulated uncertainty and anxiety over these past 2 years.

There is a lot of anger and division amongst people right now. Carryover from the mask mandates, the vaccines, and everything else the pandemic brought.

How many of you are feeling this uncertainty and anxiety coming out of these past 2 years?

So tonight, we are going to get into some skills that you can use to ensure you are being kind to yourself, as well as the others around you.

These skills are quite simple and easy to integrate.

Megan presents: "Creating Happiness"
Matt presents: "Action Language"

Time, again, for 'What-If Wednesday'!

What-If Wednesday allows us a chance to practice flipping that into a "Positivity Push-up", as Megan calls it.

The human brain is a problem-identifier
..and the Reticular Activating System of the brain loves to find themes in your thoughts and what you are looking for and experiencing.
So if you're focusing on the negative, you'll find more negative!!

We each take a few minutes and 'what-if' the best case scenarios of our days ahead.
It is interesting how exciting the day can sound when you 'what-if' the best-case scenario.

**Of note - Fear and excitement show up the same way in your body!
It is all about how your brain decides to filter it: are you fearful and full of self-doubt? ..or are you confident and full of curiosity?

Time for the 2nd installment of TOASTMASTER TUESDAY!!

RULES:
-3 minutes to improv a speech on a subject.
-Avoid the use of landing words (such as "uh" and "like").
-Stay within the time parameters!

TODAY'S SUBJECT:
'What I wanted to be when I grew up.'

Mindshift Monday's subject? Breath and proper breathing!

Taking 3-5 abdomen breaths can change your state very quickly and effectively.

We live in a world where we are in a mild (or more than mild) stress response all day long, that traps our breath in our chest.

Let's get into why this is and how to fix it!

Welcome to ReFrame Friday!!

Darci and I go through some 'language games' we like to call "Action Language : Words to Get You UnStuck"

We start with Soft Talk Keywords & Soft Talk Goal Setting, then go to 'Should Detox'!

'Should' to 'could' to 'can' to 'can, because' !!

Last week we talked about the 3 acts of the Hero’s Journey.

Act 1: The Calling: People who are feeling unhappy and unfulfilled with their jobs, feeling of an unlived life inside them.
There is a movement in the world right now called “The Great Resignation”.
People are betting on themselves more than ever. There are a lot of people disenchanted with the 9-5 pm day job routine, and they are working on their own businesses.
There is a huge influx of entrepreneurs coming out of the pandemic.

Why do you think that is?

Some of my clients and I have been talking a lot about what their values are, their principles..these key beliefs are what make up your threshold.
After this threshold is crossed, or you feel your job is no longer congruent with your principles, your key beliefs - that’s where you’re likely to look elsewhere.
Just like a relationship that is no longer suites you.

The threshold is the 2nd Act in the Hero’s Journey. The point of no return. This is where you start to do some redefining, and some soul searching. Some define it as an existential crisis….who am I? what am I doing here?….and why?

It’s coming up on a year when I decided to follow this path. I took a 6-month sabbatical from my job and followed my calling, past the threshold and I’m having my period of rebirth. And I am ready to go back in for more.

The Hero’s Journey repeats itself throughout your life. As long as you answer the Calling. Your calling.

My call to action on this 3rd Act Thursday?
Activate your greatness and step into the life you were destined to live.
If you need help with that - I am here for you.

EP9 : What-If Wednesday || Fear or Excitement?

Welcome to the 1st edition of 'What-If Wednesday'!

The human brain is a problem-identifier..and the Reticular Activating System of the brain loves to find themes in your thoughts and what you are looking for, and experiencing.

What-If Wednesday allows us a chance to practice flipping that into a "Positivity Push-up", as Megan calls it.

We each take a few minutes and 'what-if' the best case scenarios of our days ahead.

The theme that came up was how exciting the day can sound when you 'what-if' the best-case scenario.

(Of note - Fear and excitement show up the same way in your body!)

The other theme is that schedules are made to be flexible, based on the principles of the person who writes the schedule.
If you surrender to the day and prioritize the right things, based on your principles and values, you will not be so 'achievement focused' and will enjoy the moments more!
