the for us podcast

When we’re angry, we are blinded by this rush of hatred or sadness or pain. We think crazy thoughts, say crazy things, and do crazy things. That’s all normal. But the impulse that we get from anger, to do all of these crazy things, distracts us from the mindfulness that we are trying to achieve. Today I talk about how we can reflect and learn from our anger and how we can become more mindful about it.

One thing that motivates us to continue through our self-care journey is growth. When we can understand and visibly see that we are changing for the better, it gives us a sense of relief and motivation to keep going. Today I share some of the most noticeable signs of growth in our self-care journeys, and how to continue onto the next step of your journey, wherever you are at in your journey.

The people we spend time around mean a lot. That’s why it is important to put energy and effort into the relationships that uplift us, and limit the amount of energy you put in to relationships where you don’t feel valued. Learn to understand which people you feel good around, and which people you don’t feel good around, and then focus your energy on good relationships.

Today I talk about how intentions influence our actions and why we do certain things, including how we interact with other people. Our intentions reflect our own self worth and identifying our intentions help us to refocus them.

This episode has definitely been the hardest one to put into words so far. It’s so hard to explain why it is so important to push yourself out of your comfort zone, and how to do it. But when you do figure out how to do it, pushing yourself a little bit everyday makes you a better person and helps you to learn more about yourself an ever before.

When we hear the words “stay present” we think of phrases like “be present in the moment” or “focus on what’s happening now.” People make it seem so easy. But it’s not. It’s very very hard to stay fully present with your reality. Today I talk about how we can learn to stay more present in our lives, and why it is so important to do so.

Our feelings are really sensitive things. That’s why we try to block out all of our emotions from view, and we don’t open up about them. Today I talk about how we can learn to open up about our emotions and make vulnerability part of the conversation.
