There are so many amazing people in our lives, including ourselves, and maybe we don't take enough time to recognize and acknowledge the things that we/they have accomplished.  This episode is about celebrating and giving recognition to ourselves and others for the wonderful things that we do in this world.  Join in on the celebration and see what a positive difference it can make.

Welcome back to the 5th season of Power Yourself!  Jill discusses volunteering and the benefits it brings to both the community and yourself.  This episode is dedicated to a super volunteer and good friend, Stacey, who has recently passed, but whose dedication to volunteering and helping others still impacts many.   

On the final episode of the 4th season, Jill discusses the concept of Otherizing.  Why do we look at other people as radically different from ourselves?  We are all humans with wants and needs, and each of us experiences our own struggles. Why not step back and notice our similarities that create more opportunities for connection? If we want a chance at having a more peaceful world to live in, we have to listen to each other and learn how to all work together.

Jill talks with special guest Alexandra Paproski, MA, Registered Clinical Counsellor, about what grace is, how to recognize it, and the different ways we can show it in our daily lives.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  Jill discusses how we see ourselves and how we can start to change our negative perspectives on that person we see in the mirror every day.

This week, Jill welcomes Lindsay Phillips-Oates, a registered Naturotherapist, Reiki Master, Yoga Teacher, and mother of two.  Jill and Lindsay go over the need to put yourself first when you start the self-care process, and the many ways that you can practice it.

Jill talks about how a little bit of silence in our lives can help improve our day and our relationships.

Jill talks with Tamara Hanson, a Reiki Master and Certified Meditation Instructor, about the things that we can do to bring ourselves back to the present moment.
