The Spiritual Side of Self-Care: Nurturing the Soul


Listen Later

Have you ever found yourself trapped in a vicious cycle of self-criticism, unable to break free from the shackles of negative self-talk? If so, you're not alone.


In a powerful conversation, Walt and Joel delved into the pervasive issue of self-love, self-care, and the damaging impact of self-criticism.


"A much bigger deal is what I might call a deluge of self-criticism," Walt shared, highlighting the prevalence of this epidemic in our society. Joel echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the alarming trend of individuals using social media to define themselves by their diagnoses and perceived flaws.


"The narrative that goes with that becomes very damaging," Joel lamented, underscoring the detrimental effect of this self-imposed labeling. The duo explored how this negative internal dialogue can become a self-fulfilling prophecy, attracting the very outcomes we fear.


But the real eye-opener came when Walt and Joel discussed the power of perspective. "If you believe these things about yourself, they are self-fulfilling. That's your reality," Joel asserted, driving home the crucial role our mindset plays in shaping our lives.


The conversation took an inspiring turn as Joel shared his personal journey of overcoming addiction and depression. "I spent 98% of my thoughts after the first week after he passed away, was solely focused on the joy he brought to my life, not the lack of him not being here," he revealed, showcasing the transformative power of a positive mindset.


Walt and Joel's exchange was a masterclass in resilience, highlighting the importance of taking action and aligning our thoughts with our behaviors. "If you don't know what to do, do anything, do something," Joel urged, emphasizing the need to break the cycle of inaction.


The duo's insights were not limited to personal growth; they also delved into the economic realm, discussing the opportunities that often arise during challenging times. "I just consider it on sale as a discount," Joel quipped, demonstrating the ability to see the silver lining even in the face of market volatility.


As the conversation drew to a close, Walt and Joel left us with a powerful call to action: "Once you get going and you believe in it, it works," Joel affirmed, underscoring the transformative power of a positive mindset coupled with persistent action.


So, my fellow warriors, the time has come to unleash your inner strength and conquer the demons of self-doubt. Embrace the power of positivity, take action, and watch as your life transforms before your very eyes. The journey may not be easy, but the rewards are truly life-changing.
