People Who Suffer

I had a client tell me she loves my own personal stories and sometimes she even loves stories of the other clients I work with even more because she could really hear her own story inside of them.  She also loved that I always had new ones to share and she loved that so I decided to share a few.

Awareness is one of the fastest ways to feeling better. Knowing what it is and why it does what it does is one of the greatest knowings we can have. 

We can be light-hearted in almost any situation. Even when someone is mad at us. It's both simple and helpful.  When we see things as they are, we see the simplicity in what seemed complex. Then suffering is replaced with ease and understanding. 

When you suddenly find yourself in understanding, the feeling can be very foreign and the mind can start to question the peace and stillness you are feeling. The question can occur "is this true peace or am I delusional?" It's peace. Let's talk for a few minutes about how to know and maintain this feeling.

This is part II of how to love yourself, because of course that subject deserves at minimum two parts. Feeling like you don't love yourself is a big source of suffering. It's also unnecessary to feel that way.

One of, if not the most ask question I get, is how do I love myself? It's an important question to know the answer to. This is part one of a dive into that question.

There's a lot of advice out there. We are living in a culture where seemingly everyone is an expert.  Much of what these experts have to tell us is not helpful to our experience of life and ends up creating more suffering rather than reducing it. Learning how to spot bad advice  is critical to our happiness and well-being.

Coach and Client, Melissa Solomon joins me for this impromptu conversation about the value of  conversation with the right person. She shares fun stories and insights about how much things have changed for her and how she now helps others experience the same kinds of change.

Every year, a lot of us do the same thing as the date changes on our calendar. We make resolutions to do things differently next year. And we do. For a while. On this episode, I'll drop a little insight on why resolutions do not tend to stick for many of us and how to have a different experience.

When we are caught up in mental suffering, it can seem difficult or even impossible to get out of it. One of the worst symptoms of mental suffering is not wanting to do anything. There is a remedy.
