  • EP074 Life Lessons and Silver Linings

    Welcome to episode 74 where we focus on the concepts of learning to look for and learn from the gentle life lessons that keep "showing up" for us, along with finding the good amongst the difficult we are walking through. Being more mindful and purposeful can actually help us feel more centered and empowered when we are going through it.

    In this episode, we talk first about how if we look deeply, we can find the lesson or lessons that keep showing up in our life via conflict, disappointment and other consequences. Then we process how finding the good points when we are facing difficulty builds resilience and is also more reality based.

    Key Elements:

    • Discuss how to find the underlying life lessons in your circumstances.
    • Process the different life lessons that can show up for us and what they mean.
    • Examine why we need to look for the silver linings to have perspective.

    Gratitude and attitude

    are not challenges;

    they are choices.

    Welcome to episode 73 where we explore the concept of control, about letting go and focusing on what is actually within our power.

    In this episode, we look at how letting go can actually be a challenge, and yet so empowering as we refocus on the many things that we can have control over. We note that when we get grounded and intentional, we can start to feel so much better.

    Key Elements:

    • Discuss how allowing yourself to feel is an important part of letting go.
    • Talk about how to take new ownership of what you think, feel, do and believe.
    • Explore the benefits of daily practice that can lead to lasting change.

    when you decide to take control of what you

    do have power over instead of craving

    control over what you don't."

  • EP072 Gratitude and Letting Go

    Welcome to episode 72 where we lay out a framework for getting grounded: focusing on gratitude and letting go of outcomes we cannot control.

    In this episode, we explore some of the benefits of what we will be focusing on this month – looking at some of the good in our life we are thankful for, while processing letting go of things we have zero control over.

    Key Elements:

    • Discuss some of the benefits of practicing gratitude
    • Describe why we may actually have some resistance to being thankful.
    • Explore the practice of letting go of outcomes, and how this too can be good for our health.

    Gratitude is not ignoring

    what's not working in your life,

    it's giving thanks for what is.

  • EP071 Letting the Empathy In

    Welcome to episode 71 where we finish out this month's focus on empathy, and specifically allowing ourselves to receive empathy from another. We explore how beneficial empathy is to our well-being and personal growth.

    In this episode, we describe how for some of us, receiving wonderful empathy can actually raise anxiety, and we can block our receiving it out of fear. We then process ways you can begin working toward being more open and welcoming to it in the future.

    Key Elements:

    • Process the ways we need empathy to heal and grow, and yet can still push it away..
    • Describe the origins of having anxiety around receiving empathy from another.
    • Walk through ways you can begin healing that and becoming more open to the healing.

    'If we can share our story

    with someone who responds

    with empathy and understanding,

    shame can't survive.'
