In this short mind-moment, co-host Csrolanne Ashley explores the concept of self-worth and how it is not something that needs to be earned or validated by others.

She shares her own personal journey of struggling with self-worth and the realization that their worth was already inherent within them

Key steps discussed for building self-worth include practicing self-compassion, focusing on your strengths, using positive affirmations, setting boundaries, and celebrating small wins.

The main message is that your self-worth is not dependent on your achievements or how others perceive you. It is an innate part of who you are

Listeners are encouraged to start small in recognizing their own worth and incorporating self-worth building practices into their daily routine.

Carolanne offers support and invites listeners to share the episode with someone who may need to hear this message about self-worth.

In this short mind moment, Co-Host Clancy Barton discusses:

Differentiating between thoughts (spontaneous mental events from the unconscious mind) and thinking (active, conscious processing and analysis)

How emotional reactions and "childlike" behaviours often stem from unconscious thoughts rather than rational, adult-like thinking

Examples contrasting logical, conscious thinking (e.g. creating a budget) vs. emotional, unconscious thoughts (e.g. impulsive spending)

The role of acceptance vs. blame, and unlimited options vs. limited choices, in distinguishing conscious vs. unconscious mental processes

Explanation of the "can do" vs. "can't do" mindset, and how it reflects deeper beliefs and thought patterns

Discussion of how hypnotherapy can be an effective tool for addressing unconscious, limiting thought processes

Key questions for self-reflection: Do you react with automatic thoughts or engage in deeper thinking? What beliefs or past experiences shape your mindset?

The Importance of shifting from outdated, restrictive thoughts to more rational, forward-moving thinking for personal growth and life experiences

This episode covers a powerful technique called "Tactical Breathing" that can help you reset, refocus and recharge in under 7 minutes.

Tactical breathing activates the parasympathetic nervous system, the body's natural "rest and digest" system, to interrupt the stress response

The technique involves a 5-count rhythm for inhaling, holding, exhaling, and pausing the breath. This helps slow the heart rate, calm the nervous system, and reduce cortisol (the primary stress hormone).

Practicing tactical breathing daily, even for just a minute, can build resilience to stress, improve focus, ease anxiety, and support restful sleep.

Carolanne Ashley demonstrates the tactical breathing technique step-by-step and encourages listeners to try it out whenever they need a quick reset, such as before a big meeting or event, or before bed.

Tactical breathing is presented as a reliable "reset button" that is always available to help you find calm and balance, no matter what life throws your way.

We hope you enjoy this short mind moment, quick, powerful sessions designed to fit seamlessly into your day.

These moments offer simple tools to help you reset, refocus and recharge in under seven minutes, ready for fresh pause that brings calm and balance.
