  • Why Our Suffering Isn’t Wasted

    “There are times when a single phrase can literally alter the course of your entire life.” Margaret takes you on a journey to understand the gifts and blessings of overcoming suffering. Discover how to change your situation, control your response and choose love, compassion and forgiveness over pain.

     

    KEY TAKEAWAYS 

    • Our thoughts and feelings are shaped by our conditioning, our beliefs, our knowledge, our experiences, and our present state of mind. We each have the inner awareness of freedom, the power and choice of how to respond to any given thought, emotion or any given situation that arises in our life.

     

    • If you're not able to change a situation, you can control how you choose to respond to it in the present. 

     

    • The challenges we face and the obstacles we overcome do not have to hold us back. Instead, they become part of our story of redemption. Gifts, blessings and healings to live a purposefully filled life and to empower others. 

     

    • When suffering is overcome, it is replaced with valuable gifts of love, compassion, forgiveness, and gratitude.

  • We are the producer, the author, the director, and the actor of our thoughts and feelings. We can make new choices from suffering or whatever life throws in our way with meditation, creativity and imagination.
  •  

    BEST MOMENTS 

    “My mind began to shift. It was an instant awakening in the present moment and I have the choice, I am in charge and can change my thoughts and feelings.”

    “Every one of us is flawed. Life is a gift.” 

    “I am grateful for the mistakes I made and the lesson life is teaching me to grow.”

    ABOUT THE HOST

    A few years ago, Margaret underwent several life-threatening traumas, including domestic abuse, and almost killed by her ex-partner, kidney and brain cancer, mental health issues, and a near-death experience. Her life was encapsulated in darkness, and she welcomed the thought of dying. From a breakdown to a breakthrough, these words from Viktor Frankl’s book, Man's Search For Meaning, changed her life forever: “The existence of life is to suffer; to survive is to find meaning in suffering.” Once she became aware of this, her life changed, and choose to live each day like it's her last…

  • Why I AM Always Smiling

    There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside of you. Welcome back to Today I Am Alive with Margaret Aberdeen, in today’s episode learn how to manifest your thoughts into reality, why past traumas can help you grow and how to master your mind and gain control over your future.

     

    KEY TAKEAWAYS 

    • You are what you think and you attract what you think, so make your thoughts dominant and visualise, hear, see and taste your vision and you will manifest it into existence.

     

    • Your past trauma will provide you with infinite wisdom and courage to selfishly flip the mirror on yourself and go deep within, grow organically internally and create who you’re born to be and do what you are born to do. 

     

    • Spending time alone forces us into a state of inner freedom and liberation. Getting to know ourselves inside out and observing our thoughts, including positive and negative.

     

    • The mind is an instrument that you are in control of. You need to have the awareness to change your relationship with your mind through meditation and be courageous by making positive choices with a commitment to changing your lifestyle.

     

    • Smiling is a natural drug to boost your mood and immune system. It makes you feel happy and brings a ray of light into the lives of others. 



    BEST MOMENTS 

    “Your thoughts and your thoughts and yours alone.”

    “What I've been through has been both traumatic and a blessing, a trauma, because it was tough and hard-hitting, but a blessing because today I'm alive!”

To grow beyond and to live a fulfilling and fruitful life. In the first episode, your host, Margaret Aberdeen shares her journey from pain to purpose.

     

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • It is in our darkest hours that we discover our strengths and weaknesses, it’s only then that we discover who we truly are and what our life’s purpose is.

    • There are millions of little moments happening around you all of the time and what you’re missing will never be repeated again. They’re unique and irreversible moments that are all your own. 



    BEST MOMENTS

    “Being in the moment is about feeling blissfully happy now, despite having all the reasons to be sad or be scared of what the future holds.”

    “Being in the moment is about seizing each moment and harvesting the lesson from it to live.”

    “I know from the bottom of my heart that all of us can turn our lives around from broken, hopeless, airless, and devastating to repairing, rejuvenating and rebooting.”
