When you get to a point where you only have things that you need gifts can become a challenging dynamic. The intention behind the gifts and the person giving the gifts as always Pure but the gift itself may be something that you didn’t need. And when you’re living a life without things that you don’t use value or need within six months this can become a little complicated. So this is my little life hack when it comes to gift giving and receiving.

Fight flight or freeze are an automatic response that we have been conditioned to use over the history of humanity. I would argue that in today’s day and age this response is unnecessary most of the time. Even though I believe this I am also aware that our patterns are strong. Even though this response is no longer necessary our bodies and minds love things that are familiar So we continue to go there even though it may be at our detriment. In this episode I share some tools and coping mechanisms that have helped me bring myself back once I’ve entered this state of mind. I hope this helps.

We think by dwelling on the painful things in life were somehow making them better. I want to argue that when we create a story about our pain and complain about our pain and never let go of our pain what we’re really doing is choosing to suffer. Pain is inevitable. suffering is optional. In this podcast I go into detail on my views of how we can except pain so that we don’t create unnecessary suffering. This is my quickest path back to joy and peace.

Often times we think that life is meant to be enjoyed all of the time. What if I said that this idea is actually what creates a lot of our unnecessary suffering. In this episode I talk about how life is actually a school in which we learn everything it means to be alive. Tune in if you’d like to hear my thoughts on this.

I did it. It feels so good. In this episode I go into detail on the first few days of having no social media and what it’s done for the quality of my life relationships and happiness. You may think I’m being dramatic but if you haven’t taken the time to dive into your relationship with social media and the effects it’s having on the quality of your life then I would encourage you to do so. Here are my thoughts.

Social media has taken over every aspect of our lives. I understand that it would make sense for you to be worried about deleting your social media if you are single and want to find the love of your life. This is simply my opinion on the subject and my beliefs on what this looks like. For me and my relationship with God I believe that there’s nothing you could do to get in the way of God showing you the person he designed just for you. Listen to this episode if this is you.

I think we know this. I think we understand that life is in permanent and at any moment we or someone else could die. I don’t think that we live this. I think we often forget that life is not guaranteed. That tomorrow you or the people you love could be gone and you would be left with the memories and the last conversation you had with this individual. Would you be proud of this? Would you want to change this? Why don’t we live with this fact in the back of our minds in every moment?
