Intrusive thoughts can be a really difficult component of mental health issues and can be exhausting to deal with. Intrusive thoughts are unwanted thoughts that can and will pop into your head at any time. They are often repetitive, with the same kind of thought coming up again and again, which can cause daily disturbance or distress. In our finale of season 2 of Simply Shan, we talk about what intrusive thoughts are and some tips you can use to work through them.
Today, we are going to be talking about your relationship with others- particularly partnerships! We discuss five signs of a healthy relationship and 5 signs of an unhealthy relationship. Remember this, our relationships in life are often times direct reflections of our relationship to life. When we are learning how to love well, first we need to learn how to love ourselves well.
Chakras and energy work has been around for thousands of year and is included in multiple religious and spiritual practices. And there is reason for it! Understand the energy within us and connecting to it allows us to meet a deeper version of ourselves. We speak on the root chakra, the very first chakra, located at the base of the spine. Root energy deals with how grounded we feel in life and if we do not feel grounded within ourselves how focusing on this chakra through meditation can bring our feeling of safety and stability back into balance.
In each individual, we are presented with both feminine and masculine energy. While every individual has one energy they engage with more, it is important to find balance and connection within both energies. We discuss what a healthy divine masculine and feminine is, and we recognize signs they are imbalanced and how we can find balance and begin to establish a relationship with both aspects of ourselves.
This week is all about the environment and some simple ways we can love her well! A lot of the time when making changes to improve our relationship with life around us we think it has to be these huge leaps, but there are simple easy around the house things we can do to be a friend to the world around us. We are life, and as life we should not only take but look to give. This episode is all about learning to love what is around us well, and that starts with the environment.
Dreams are one of the most confusing, exhilarating, and intuitive topics we could discuss so we are going to! We talk about how you can dream more if you struggle to dream at all, Western vs Eastern psychologies take on dreams, and the possible messages that are being delivered to you within your dreams.
Building consistent confidence within yourself is a process and we are going to talk about it! Truly, I believe consistency in confidence stems from your roots being internally in tune with yourself and what you need as life. We talk about three internal tools you can practice to begin to grow confidence as well as three external physical tools you can practice to show confidence.
Most people mistake the law of detachment from not caring in life or not trying, but it is so much more than that. We discuss the 6 principles of the law of detachment, and we talk about how the law of detachment allows us to move fluidly through life with adaptability and in a state of content.
There are a lot of different roots of anxiety, and abandonment anxiety is a very common in individuals who have experienced:
- growing up without secure attachment to caregiver
-a past abrupt breakup
- emotional neglect
- a lack of safety
We talk about physical indicators you may be having with abandonment anxiety and some coping tools we can use to work through this. I myself have experienced this, I know how difficult it can be and the first step to treating it is recognizing it.
In this episode of Simply Shan, we are talking about embracing competition and how to have a healthy relationship with competition in an environment where it is heavily relevant. We are constantly competing in our lives whether for jobs, in sports, in hobbies, and more and depending on how we approach competition is what we will get out of it. We talk about the process of competition and finding internal value in it rather than searching for solely external results.
