  • Thought: Face Your Mistakes and Imperfections

    Defensiveness, insecurity, and comparison not only divide you from others, but from your own brilliant humanity. Ironically, letting others be what they are, while you remain in perfect ease with your imperfections, solidifies connections you thought were once lost.  - Amy Larson -

  • Thought: Addicted to Beliefs

    The biggest addiction, and one we least often talk about, is being addicted to beliefs. We really get hooked into thinking what we believe is true and right. - Martha Boesing

    🤦‍♂️

    What kinds of beliefs do you hold most dear? Where have those beliefs came from?


    Where do your beliefs take you? What kinds of actions do you perform in the name of your beliefs?

    Why might so many people take challenges to their beliefs as personal challenges?

  • Thought: Choose To Have Integrity

    By choosing integrity, I become more whole, but wholeness does not mean perfection. It means becoming more real by acknowledging the whole of who I am.


    Parker J. Palmer

    Why might we limit our view of choosing integrity in our lives?


    Why might we seek to gain wholeness through others?

    What are some roadblocks to recognizing and accepting our wholeness within?

  • Thought: Be You; Be Your Authentic Self

    It's simple; be YOU. If you're not being you, you're being someone else. YOU are not here to be someone else.


    Dr. Steve Maraboli

    ❤

    Are you always your authentic self? What might keep you from being so?


    Why are some individuals so concerned about what we say, do, or think?

  • Thought: Share Your Joy, Share Your Love... Share

    If you knew what I know about the power of giving, you would not let a single meal pass without sharing it in some way.


    Buddha


    Think of a time when you brought joy to someone else's life through giving. How did that make you feel?


    Why do we often fail to spend more time giving and sharing with others?

    What are some new ways you could share joy with others?

  • Thought: Love to Receive Love

    Love is our deepest longing. Just as the body needs food the soul needs love--it is nourishment, spiritual nourishment. Without the food, air, and water, the body will deteriorate; without love the soul starts shrinking. And everybody is living with a very small soul for the simple reason that they have not loved. And why have they not loved? If you inquire into the question you will be surprised, because for the whole of their life everybody is trying to get love. But people are trying to get, not to give, and the law of love is that you get only when you give. Giving comes first, getting is only a consequence.  - Osho -

    ❤

    How often do you nourish your soul?


    Is it easy for you to give and receive love?

    How easy is it to stay focused on all our needs--physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual?

  • She Said/He Said (with Sin & Blue) 6lack Women & Their Mental Health Issues

    Sin and her compadres Blue, Tone, and Deb of the LOOSE LIPS podcast as they discuss women and the impact of mental health on them during this time.

    A recent study showed that:

    • one in five women compared to one in eight men had a mental health problem
    • there was a steady increase in the number of women experiencing mental health difficulties, with young women particularly at risk
    • one in five women aged 16-25 reported recently self-harming
    • suicide rates in women were at their highest for a decade.

      • In addition, rates of suicide and self-harm were higher for women in minority ethnic communities compared to other women.

      What affects women’s mental health?

      There are a number of factors affecting women’s mental health.

      • Women are more likely to be the main carer for their children than men, and may care for older or disabled relatives too. Women carers are more likely to experience anxiety and depression than other women.
      • Women are more likely to live in poverty than men.
      • Poverty, working mainly in the home and concerns about personal safety can all make women feel isolated. Social isolation is linked to mental health problems.
      • Physical and sexual abuse can have a long-term impact on women’s mental health, especially if they haven’t received any support.
      • Women are exposed to more sexual violence than men, which means more women are affected by PTSD.
