Ungraduated Living

Give and Ye shall receive!

We've all heard this, but do we really believe it? How does it work? Why does it work? Is there a certain way to give? What about taking?

What are the differences between "givers" and "takers?"

This is the focus of today's episode with the founder of Givers University EA Csolkovits.

"The takers" in life wear us out, they cause damage over time. We want to become more of givers so that we not only help others, but then receive that good fortune back in our own lives.

EA Scolkovits has a real life story around the giving in his life that has made him a millionaire. And even if money isn't your main motivation, it sure helps to have it if you want to serve others and give more.

We all want peace of mind - at home and in the workplace. In order for this peace to occur, we must take heed of our ethics and in order to that we must become aware of our minds and our thoughts.

That is the focus of today's daily episode.

To reduce and eliminate disturbing emotions and wrong views, we must know their causes. The stages that we pass through towards awakening and into enlightenment include six factors that cause afflictions to manifest in the mind:

- the seeds of afflictions

- contact with certain objects

- detrimental influences

- exposure to the media

- habits

- distorted attention

In today's daily episode we discuss these afflictions that sidetrack the mind, and thus how we can avoid the pitfalls.

When it comes to diets, pills, and other fads - how can we truly keep the weight off?

Special guest Renee Jones has figured this out and beyond age 50.

In this podcast episode we get into the mindsets concerning weight loss and how to "face our stuff, so we no longer need to stuff our face."

Renee spent 40 years on the diet Yo-Yo, and in 2012, she finally smashed it by overcoming emotional eating, and she's maintained her healthy weight since then.

Her mission is to help others who struggle with their weight, who look to food for stress relief and to soothe themselves. No diet, exercise routine, or magic diet potion can counter the effects when we've stuffed down our feelings and followed it with a food chaser. We have to heal our hearts. When we face our stuff, we no longer need to stuff our faces.

With a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Counseling and a Clinical Residency, Renee utilizes traditional and contemporary models as well as relaxation and horse-assisted methods to help her clients free themselves by addressing emotional, physical, and spiritual needs. In 2011, she opened an international private practice in counseling serving clients and colleagues in the U. S., United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Switzerland, India, Vietnam, South Africa, Romania, Australia, and New Zealand.

As we seek less suffering in life, it's important to see life as what it is - allowing things to "simply be." This is a part of self-identity and labeling of life. We do it for practical purposes, but must learn to see life for the "suchness" that it truly is.
