In this episode, Niva explains how our attitudes first thing in the morning will determine the outcome of your entire day! Hope is like a bird that senses the dawn and begins to start singing while it's still dark. It's called the dawn chorus. Hope is a feeling of expectation and A desire for certain things to happen. To have hope is to want an outcome that makes your life better in some way. It can not only help make a difficult situation more bearable, but it can also improve your life because you're envisioning a better future and that will motivate you to take steps to make it happen.Listen and find out what we can learn from the birds dawn chorus!Support the show (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=XQGW7QET8K8FU&source=url)

Your life carries infinite potential, and how this is expressed is based on your internal frequency state. I've said before, all is energy. This is referenced throughout ancient spiritual or religious text and our science today validates this truth. We can now measure and actually see frequencies throughout the universe as well as the energy, or frequencies that exist in all things including you and I. We are all connected and who you surround yourself with matters!Expansion of consciousness happens when you are open to it, when you allow your inner-source, your truth, to be your guiding force; when you connect with God, infinite love or source energy, and when you begin healing your wounds. Who you surround yourself with directly mirrors and reflects your internal frequency state which allows for more or less expansion. Listen to this episode so you can begin your daily consciousness expansion practice. By following these simple steps, you'll find your purpose on your path. More and more, you'll find yourself surrounded with others who carry a beautiful, expansive source of love, that hold the frequency you're looking to match. Everything in your life will begin to propel forward. You'll begin to shift from stagnation to flow, from lack to abundance, from confusion to clarity, from pain to peace.for more information contact Niva Cochava at:www.nivacochava.comemail: niva@nivacochava.comFacebook: Niva Cochava, TLCInstagram: niva.cochavaSupport the show (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=XQGW7QET8K8FU&source=url)

Self-care is the art of meeting our needs in order to reach our full potential. True self-care is what I call effective, authentic self-care. It means, ensuring that all of our needs - spiritual and emotional- as well as -mental and physical- are met. It requires self-determination, self-knowledge and a bit of courage. If you think of self care as the art of meeting your needs, then imagine all your favorite colors on the palate that you're going to use to create your way to meeting your needs.Oftentimes, when we shift our perspective toward a more creative approach, you'll find yourself enjoying the process, you become open, you can easily approach any new idea or routine with a sense of curiosity and discovery. As you create-and-engage in your authentic self-care routine, you're going to experience inner- joy and peace. You'll feel more balanced and relaxed and your self-confidence will automatically increase. My intention is to give you a solid foundation on which you can build your self-care routine for long-term success, not a quick fix or a temporary solution. You deserve to live your best life today and to carry that long into your future! Releasing blocked energy and negative emotions will open you up instantly to unlimited possibilities. So, everything I gave you in episode 17 is genuine, it's practical and it's an essential foundation for you to achieve your long term success. If you missed it, I recommend that you go back and visit that episode. In this episode, I'm adding another layer on top of those foundational first steps. As a transcendental life coach, my approach has always been living from the inside out. Self-care is no different if it's to be effective and authentic. Everything you need is within you. What does that mean and how do you access everything you need if it's already within you? First, you'll want to identify what you need and what your goals are since your success with self-care and life in general often hinges on whether or not you know what you want. With each area of your life, ask yourself what you need in order to be the best version of yourself. Write these things down and then go beyond your needs and ask yourself what you want. Make a summary of both your needs and wants and then create some goals from which you can establish a vision that allows you to see where you're going. By following the steps in this episode you will have fun as you set your foundation for success through your own effective, authentic self-care routine. Just as no artist will paint the same subject the same way, your approach and plan of action will be uniquely your own. What do you want, what do you need and what is your vision? Remember, You are the creator of your world!

Learn how to use the creative force lies within you that you can allow you to create your new story to overcome any limitations! I believe everyone came into the world with the desire to create. This may be one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul. Do you feel there are conditions or circumstances that are holding you back from exploring and expressing your desires? Perhaps, in the midst of the demands of daily life, you may have put off, suppressed or even forgotten your dreams and desires. You may be thinking you're really not creative at all. In a variety of ways, through different and uniqie expressions, I knoweveryone has an expression along with the the ability to create. If you think about it, everything in life can be viewed as art. What you do, the way you dress, how you love, the way you decorate your home, your smile and personality, what you believe in and all of your dreams. Corine Garsten said, "Life itself is art." This doesn't mean that life is always going to be perfect. Unforeseen things happen to us all. When life presents challenges, instead of getting discouraged, stay present and be intentional with your thoughts and your expression. How we manage our thoughts and how we use our mind can be for the better or for the worse. Jimmy Buffet said, "It takes no more time to see the good side of life than it does to see the bad." So bring your intention in. What is the new story, what is the new image, what direction do you take and how are you going to find it? If you think of life as an art form, it can open up your mind to new ways of thinking and seeing possibilities that you may not have been able to see or believe before. Make space for the creative force within you to express itself. Take deep long breaths, smile as much as possible, become aware of your present moment and the choices you make, the things you think about and be aware of the impact your thoughts or beliefs are having on you. If it's not supporting you, just let it go. If those around you don't support you, create some space. Give yourself permission to be fully who you are. Release the artist's mind to create your new story and see how life itself is art! Albert Einstein said, "Creativity is intelligence having fun!"

When you have a desire to do something or to have something, or maybe it's to have the experience of something, incremental progress is a good way to start. This can apply to anything you want or need ranging in areas such as relationships, the workplace or a career, maybe it's in the area of finances, it can be health related, spirituality or any kind of self improvement, or, perhaps you're looking to make a change in your life. When you have identified what it is and you have an idea or a vision of what it could look like, you are well on your way. What is your need? What do you want? What are your ideas and desires? In the practical sense, I recommend that you write down your thoughts, desires or ideas as they come. Then, turn your thoughts and ideas into a vision. This is a very important first step. Neville Goddard says it like this, “With your desire defined, quietly go within and shut the door behind you. Lose yourself in your desire; feel yourself to be one with it; remain in this fixation until you have absorbed the life and name by claiming and feeling yourself to be and to have that which you desired. When you emerge, you must do so conscious of being and possessing that which you heretofore desired.” How do you do this? Prayer or Meditation is a good way to gain the clarity you need to identify and then to connect to that vision. There are many ways you can meditate. For this practice, I would suggest sitting down with your thoughts and ideas and then get quiet as Neville said. You do this by holding your wants, needs, desires and ideas in your heart. Remember, your heart knows! In meditation, you don't have to think about it. As you quiet down your mind, you can allow some visualization to take place. Allow your imagination to create and form pictures or images. As this is happening, connect with it through feeling. Feel as though it has already happened. What does that feel like? Does it feel like relief? Do you feel the possibility, because, here, you won't see or feel any limitations. You don't have to stay in this place very long. It can be as little as a few seconds or it can be much longer. Once you see it and you connect with it through the feeling it brings, it's enough. Now, here is your vision.Afterward, when you emerge, write down what you saw and how you felt. When the vision is written down, it will begin to solidify. The vision written down helps us to start making a path or a plan that we can accomplish. If we don't write the vision down, then we can quickly forget it. But when it is written down we begin walking in the reward of its success. So, write down your vision in as much detail as you can and notice how that compares to the thoughts and ideas you had prior to meditating.From here, you can begin taking the next incremental steps forward. Do what you can everyday even if it's an inch at a time. When you hold your vision in your heart, doors will open for you. Opportunities that support your vision will become available to you and little by little, step by step, inch by inch, you will be making incremental progress. So, don't let any limitations get in your way. If you have a desire it's for you. Turn it into a vision and become the determiner of the outcome.

What or who do you believe, and do you trust what you believe?Depending on what and who you listen to whether that's the news or the opinions of others, you may feel uneasy or fearful because it's difficult to know what to expect or what to believe. Regardless of financial status, ethnicity, religion, education or political views, I will always believe that the human race mostly wants to be happy and live harmoniously. I'm not going to go into all the topics at hand, but, I do want to talk about what you believe. I want to encourage and inspire you to never give up. Everything is alright and everything will always work out for you. I've talked to many people recently that are experiencing a lack of energy and they're finding it harder to focus and as well as difficulty in staying positive. This is also understandable and, like the 5 stages of grief I talked about in my last episode. It's part of the process that I believe can and will ultimately help you get where you want to go. Without having some form of fear and uncertainty, we will never know what courage and resilience is. Any leader or pioneer, explorer, inventor, or even those in the arts or creative fields...like composers, painters, sculptures, film makers... whatever it is... they've all faced uncertainty that came with some element of risk. I find that very inspiring and it shows that when we believe in something we can do amazing things regardless of the circumstances. It's so important to believe in something beyond what we see or hear and even beyond what we're experiencing and how we're feeling. The mind is great for analyzing and problem solving, but is often limited by the perspectives we have and what we believe. Naturally, we can often feel overwhelmed by our circumstances and through the appearance of 'how things are'. I find the underlying cause of limitations is often fear. Fear of the unknown, fear of making a mistake... lack of trust is rooted in fear. This is all natural and understandable, but it leads to frustration, anger, resentment, regret and all sorts of unsettling reactions.When I ask you what or who you believe in, regardless of anything else, you should believe in yourself and trust what you believe. Trust that you are, you can and you will. You are; you exist, trusting that in itself is a beautiful gift. Trust that you can do whatever you need or want to do. Trust that you will get through, you will overcome and you will break through any perceived fears, limitations, setbacks or struggles. This will give you confidence and confidence means believing in yourself. So, I'm asking you to trust what you believe. When you are confident in yourself, your world can change and new opportunities will come. When you keep at it, you can think about trust and confidence as something you will gain each day and it will accumulate as you go. It's a daily practice. In this episode, I give you some real life stories and examples to inspire and encourage you! The one common thread among these stories of overcoming is that believing in yourself and following your passion doesn't always come easy, but oftentimes, goes hand-in-hand with change, loss, hardship and challenges. Regardless of your struggles, never lose hope, because they can be for great things! You may not see it right now, but you can believe it and trust what you believe!

We are living in a time of change and it's something that on some level is affecting everyone...in relationships, in finances, and in some it's mental and emotional, and it's affecting some as well on a physical level or just life in general. We've all experienced what I call a forced change. Our way of life has changed. I understand that many of you are feeling overwhelmed and are struggling with the stresses of everyday life and it's understandable. Change on any level can easily create uncertainty and a feeling of uneasiness, stress and discord. If you're experiencing a lack of energy, a lack of focus and if it seems you're experiencing some loss in your vision for your goals and your dreams or desires, it's also understandable. It occurred to me, it's possible that we may be dealing with a type of grief. When we think of grief, we think it pertains to the loss of a loved one or something more along this line. And, while this is true, and some of you have had this experience, I also think it's possible to have a grief experience through other forms of loss as well which is likely to happen during times of change. This may include the loss of a loved one, maybe it's a divorce, loss of friends or a community, loss of income, loss of a health whether that be physical, emotional or mental health, or how about, the loss of a lifestyle we once knew? We can often feel the same type of grief and, we may not even realize it. This is a completely normal process that we go through, and yet, if we don't realize what we're experiencing, we can try to fix the feelings or the 'problem' without understanding the cause.Elizabeth Kubler-Ross was a well known psychiatrist who developed a theory or a model she referred to as the 5 stages of grief. I'd like to go over it with you to help you determine if this may be an underlying cause of some of your experiences. It's so important to recognize any of these struggles and to know that you're not alone. There's nothing wrong with you. You're having an experience and it's okay not to be okay. Life presents issues and difficulties that are beyond our control sometimes and it's not always easy. But, your life experiences don't define you. If you will give yourself some space to allow the process to bring you through ... You may be surprised to discover your true amazement, in your resilience and your brilliance. Don't give up and don't despair. Brighter days are coming for you and there closer than you know!Music credits:Thank you Kimberly and Alberto Rivera for sharing your beautiful music with us!

The mind can often perceive a problem through a much different lens than the heart because the mind has limited information. This can cause conflicting messages and your decisions will often hold you back from doing what you know is right in your heart. Fear is a contributing factor, however, fear is only the absence of love. How can you set yourself free from fear and inner conflict? Learning to understand the difference between using your mind and listening to your heart can make all the difference on your perceptions and the outcome. Since thoughts influence emotion, let's explore the heart of the matter! What is your heart telling you and how does it influence your mind?First, it's important to know what it means when I say "heart." In this context, I am not referring to the physical heart, although it is connected, but, I'm referring to the human energetic field of which the body is an extension. Our energetic lines are part of an energetic information field which connects the human form and the human energetic field to other levels of reality which I refer to as vortexes. Within the human energy field are many lines of energy flow. There are seven main lines through the field. In the East, this is referred to as chakras or wheels of light. The balance point of all these chakras is the heart chakra or heart vortex which is in the center of your chest. This is the heart I'm referring to and it's what's referred to when we say, "the power of the heart, or what is your heart telling you?" The way our head or mind processes everything vs the way our heart does are very different. The heart knows because it's connecting you to levels of awareness outside of the perceptually manipulated or influenced world of humanity to higher-levels of consciousness that actually do know. The mind wants to reason and needs explanation. It starts with a list of reasons why what you know to do shouldn't or can't happen because its sense of reality has limited perceptions based on human society; largely through what I call false belief systems that we've learned through experiences. It's come through what we've been taught and what we've come to fear. The heart doesn't reason in this way; it just knows and doesn't need to work it out. When you start to go with your intuitive knowing and let the head become the servant of the heart instead of the other, then your life changes dramatically. Because, you're being guided by a level of awareness that is able to see from a perspective beyond the limited world perceptions. The simplest way to understand this is to say, the head or the mind is in the world and it's of the world. Ancient texts tell us to be in the word, and not of the world.To understand how the heart can influence the mind is to have a better understanding of how the mind works. The head, or mind is giving its perceptions from the world as we know it. What you perceive is what you believe and what you believe becomes your truth. Your thoughts, words and intentions are so important because of the influence-they-have on your reality. Imagination is also important as it plays a huge role in the reality you create. Here's a simple explanation of how the mind works: There are two hemispheres of the brain. You have the right side and the left side and they differ in the way they process information. The left side perceives everything to be apart from everything else. Events can become random and unconnected in and of themselves whereas the right side of the brain is much more connected to the invitation of the heart and is better able at connecting dots. Overall, this gives us the idea we are whole in our thinking. However, it's possible to open the right siSupport the show (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=XQGW7QET8K8FU&source=url)
This is a follow up from the last episode where I spoke about the pineal gland, I gave you a little history from ancient times until today. I gave you some information about what it is and the vital role it plays in your overall well being and how it can become calcified over time which limits its ability to function. If you aren't familiar with the pineal gland, or you missed the previous episode, I recommend that you listen to it. I mentioned that there are ways to begin the decalcification process through the basics like eating whole foods and drinking clean or purified water. But, there's something else you can consider in addition to some of the simple lifestyle changes I mentioned. What happens when we try and do the best we can but the return on the investment we're making in ourselves seems to be temporary or it falls short of our expectation? It can be discouraging and It's not easy to develop a practice, and be consistent in any discipline if we're struggling with physical pain and ailments, lack of energy or depression. When we don't feel well, our efforts to function let alone overcome or just improve in different areas of our lives.. or transcend issues; becomes really challenging. I've seen how this hinders us on so many levels.Could the cure be as simple as a common deficiency of an essential element that's not only necessary to sustain life, but may be the answer to the growing epidemic of chronic illness worldwide. I'm talking about iodine. Of-all the elements known so far to be essential to life itself and to human health, iodine is one of the most misunderstood. However, it's actually the safest of all the essential trace elements. Our medical professionals and the public in general have been led to believe that it's not necessary or that we get enough through iodized salt which is not really the case. Over the past 40-50 years our iodine levels are dropping down about 50% from where they were. In the west, we're mostly iodine deficient.Learn about the many ways iodine along with unrefined salt can a simple yet extremely effective remedy to the detoxification our bodies desperately need and to the cure to what may stand in the way to your best life right now!

There are so many areas to explore that can contribute to our current state of being. I'm going to focus on sharing a variety of ideas and information with you about specific ways you can begin to improve your present condition regardless of the circumstances. There are ways to support and strengthen your mind and body right now so you can better address the deeper conditions of your emotions, your heart and soul and even your spirituality. It all works together.Today, I'm going to address something you may or may not be familiar with and that is the pineal gland. What it is, how it functions, and the important role it plays in your overall well being and how to support its role and improve its function. In many ways, the pineal is our body’s connection with the natural world. Severe that connection (by calcification) and what happens? You have a race of beings mostly disconnected from their instincts, from their planet, and from each other.Without a fully functioning pineal gland, media messages more easily program us, false belief systems shape us, and poor decisions plague us. I've talked about these topics, the programming and false belief systems, so this is something I believe we should all consider largely due to the cultural shifts. It's evident that we are becoming more disconnected, confused, fearful, and unable to think for ourselves. Have we forgotten who we are and how powerful we are?Simply put, does a calcified pineal gland limit our immense and marvelous potential? I'll tell you a little of the history and some of the facts that we have, although, it's not fully understood in western or modern medicine, which is why I often look to and value ancient holistic medicine and their practices.What is the pineal gland, sometimes referred to the third eye, and how does it affect your well being?

We have all had experiences in our lives that impact us to one degree or another. I know that specifically traumatic events that happen to us or even around us can get overlooked and perhaps even undervalued. We are taught to push through difficulties, we're told we're survivors, and in our fast-paced society, we can often look for a quick fix if anything. This may work for the short term, but old familiar patterns can reoccur, pain resurfaces and it's not uncommon to get discouraged and begin to lose hope or faith. Wherever you are in the process ... whatever your experiences have been along the way, your journey is just that... it's a journey. We all do the best we can. I truly believe that and I am committed to what I believe in, and I believe in you. I also believe through our experiences, we are better able to understand, help and support each other. For this reason, It's my great privilege and pleasure to introduce you to my long time, dear friend, Elle Miller. It's through her personal experiences, with great heart and compassion, Elle has cultivated spaces that acknowledge the pains, traumas, and sorrows of life, while guiding individuals toward awareness of their own potential and possibility. She is a trauma-informed yoga therapist, therapeutic yoga instructor and specialist, she's a spiritual director and supervisor, educator, advocate and an amazing mother! Through her practice, she's helped re-shape the lives of so many individuals, she's written numerous articles for Thrive Global, Addicted 2 Success, Mind Journal and she's an author! Her book, which is titled, "Amazement: Reclaiming the Brilliance of Wonder" is absolutely beautiful and heartfelt. I recommend it to anyone as a companion along the journey. Enjoy and absorb as Elle Miller shares her beautiful insights, her wisdom and experience with you. I know this is for you, right now. She's so refreshing, and you're going to be blessed....You can reach Elle Miller at www.elledmiller.com Elle Miller on FacebookSupport the show (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=XQGW7QET8K8FU&source=url)
What is family? What does it mean to you? What about situations when there isn't what's commonly considered a family, with parents, siblings or blood-relatives. The desire to belong, to be loved and accepted doesn't change. While there is a value placed on family, it can mean something different to each of us. The value of family can extend to community, to sisterhood and brotherhood. It extends to each individual's choice of who they call family and what meaningful relationships they form. Family sees the heart and understands that other things and influences connect and bind us. It's people with open hearts and a willingness to love and accept you unconditionally for who you are. It's who you can depend on for support, who understands your values and likewise, it's being the best person you can be so that you can inspire those that you love and care about just as they love and care about you.It's not always about being connected biologically. Family sees the heart and understands that other things and influences connect and bind us. It's people with open hearts and a willingness to love and accept you unconditionally for who you are. It's who you-can-depend on for support, who understands your values and likewise, it's being the best person you can be so that you can inspire those that you love and care about just as they love and care about you.We are a community that mirrors a strong family full of diversity where we all come together to share our unique gifts as well as our wounds... An enlightened community which supports all of its members in reaching their full potential as human beings. I believe we can become true creators of our destinies rather than being captives of our past. One that allows for true freedom as we take responsibility for ourselves and for our extended human family.

The Latin phrase, per aspera ad astra means 'through difficulties to the stars'Niva shares what that means to her and how it empower you as it applies to a time of difficulty. Just as important, she will tell you how it can apply to your relationship with yourself. . If you feel stuck, or you find yourself struggling, you're only limited by your perspective. What you perceive is what you believe and what you believe becomes your truth. We all need to believe in something. It's time to believe in yourself and that nothing is too difficult for you. You are so much more than you know! We move from glory to glory which means we're on a journey and we're moving through and continuing in time toward completion of a process of rising above; you are going beyond where you've been and it's your time to rise and shine!

What if your beliefs and how you feel about them are the language that speaks to the energy fields around us? It seems that our limitations often come from believing too little of ourselves. If your perception of yourself has come from what others have told you or through the way they treated you, and if it wasn't said or done in love, if it wasn't nurturing or caring, and you didn't receive it in a way that developed your trust then, can you trust your relationship with yourself? Remember, what you perceive is what you believe and what you believe becomes your truth. Your relationship with yourself is so valuable because it determines how you perceive others and the world around you. If you have doubts, insecurities, fears, perhaps a low self-image... any belief about yourself that isn't loving and nurturing, or isn't kind an' compassionate, then it's likely you'll have developed a false belief system that's creating limitations, at least on some level. We all need to believe in something. Not only do we need to believe in ourselves, we need to believe in something bigger than what we have seen and experienced in our world otherwise it's difficult to trust in general. We need to know who we are and believe in our own human potential.If you desire to live your best life, to know love, to experience joy and success in your life, it can all begin right now!Support the show (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=XQGW7QET8K8FU&source=url)

How do you change your feelings and remove the limiting beliefs? The first thing we have to do is be ready and to be intentional about the process. If you are ready and you're willing to invest in yourself, then the next thing you can do is acknowledge that you are an amazing soul and that you can access your own inner guidance. If you're willing to try to access your higher guidance rather trying to get advice or guidance from other people you'll experience something beyond the words of advice even by the most well-meaning people. When you have an encounter with pure love, it brings change. It heals. It empowers...It's within you and it is you. This is why I say it's so important to have spiritual health or spiritual well being. It creates faith and trust. You may have heard me say before, It's more powerful to say I trust you than it is to say I love you.... Pure love always comes-in trust. It's through this pure love that miracles are created and you can experience heaven on earth.

Namaste Dear One,Thank you for being the most beautiful and inspiring part of Season 1 of Niva's podcast. We have reached our 50th episode together. This is significant because the number 50 represents many things. It speaks of grace, favor, independence, freedom and change. We can all use a good dose of grace and favor, independence and freedom. We can benefit from change when we have been set free from anything that was holding us back or keeping us in debt. Because the number 50 represents freedom and a time for change, it's a good time for a change for our podcast community. We will begin Season 2 by going deeper into our journey. This is a journey and it's about growth. It's about discovery. Sometimes, not everything is discovered from our comfort zones or on the surface. Often, when we go a little deeper we find some amazing treasures. Even our past traumas can become our greatest treasures because once uncovered, they're exposed and extracted. This makes room for something new, something beautiful! Don't be ashamed to cry, let me see you through, cause I've seen the dark side too. Nothing you confess can make me love you less. And, if you're feeling all alone, you won't be on your own because I'll stand by you!! As always, I believe in you! ~NivaSupport the show (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=XQGW7QET8K8FU&source=url)
“Loving yourself starts with liking yourself, which starts with respecting yourself, which starts with thinking of yourself in positive ways.” It's just one thought in one small sentence but, it's a really big topic that so often is pushed to the side, swept under the rug so to speak...we're either too busy or too preoccupied with life and issues that we deem more demanding, more valuable or more urgent ...So, to consider ourselves and the way we feel or what we need can very often seem like an inconvenience; it can even seem unnecessary because we've mastered the art of disguise. To give ourselves time and attention can sometimes create a feeling of guilt and shame because the appearance of having it all together is what we're about.There's a lot of focus today on the topic of self love but who wants to admit that they're one of those that needs to take time for themselves? Does it show weakness? And, what will others think if you were to admit that you may need to 'work' on yourself? First of all, it's not work... it's honor. Honor yourself! I'm sure you've heard the phrase, to thine own self be true.An here's the thing....“If you aren’t good at loving yourself, you will have a difficult time loving anyone, because you’ll resent the time and energy you give another person that you aren’t even giving to yourself.”Support the show (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=XQGW7QET8K8FU&source=url)
Does it seem as if you're simply going through the motions...you're keeping up with what has to be done, do you feel as if you're fighting with some internal force that is telling you this is how it is; that you have to struggle, you're expected to give your best performance to an audience that you don't even know any longer... Does it seem at times you don't even know yourself? On the inside, we are all fragile on various levels. I understand the gift of love in disguise. The ability we have to alter our appearance to someone in ways so that others won't recognize our true or deep feelings. Is this the time of the season for loving? To go beyond where we've been? Is it time to reevaluate and to acknowledge that what has been is no longer sustaining us, and what is, is no longer fulfilling us and what e is no longer driving us forward? How can we tune in and align ourselves with any form of love while we're mostly struggling, performing, and losing ourselves to the culture climate of fear, division, competition, isolation? Listen to this episode for more deep truths! Thank you for your continued support and for your questions and comments, likes, shares and reviews!
Have you ever considered that you're not alone and perhaps it's very likely you have shared experiences beyond the heart of hope, the pull toward love and the inner knowing that you do in fact belong... I believe we all, on some level, have so much more in common than we've considered. It is my hope that through my own shared experiences I can create a strong community with a shared platform for you. Your story is so valuable because within your experiences you do have strength, you have wisdom, and you have your own pearls that you get to share with others. This will not only help others that, much like yourself, have inner struggles, who feel alone and isolated and consequently feel they're stuck or blocked from reaching their true potential. This platform will help you get in touch with and express your feelings, shed light on your inner darkness, give you support with acceptance and understanding without any fear. What can water your heart and soul better than the love, acceptance, and support of others who are where you are or who have been where you are? In this case, the more you give, the more comes back to you!! Stay tuned to my upcoming episodes and listen for ways that you can get involved. As construction is being finished on my website, I encourage you to reach out to me directly if you're struggling with a trauma related issue or if you have any questions email me directly. As always, I believe in you!Niva my email address is : niva@nivacochava.comSupport the show (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=XQGW7QET8K8FU&source=url)
Everyone's healing journey is unique and it's personal. Everyone should have a direct experience of their own. It doesn't matter if it's a physical, emotional or mental healing. It could be relational. Perhaps it's financial. The experience should be uniquely yours ... so don't be concerned about how you get there.... just be open to the realization of getting there or let's say it like this, "Imagine being where you want to be." If you have felt blocked in some way or limited by issues like fear, anxiety, depression, hurt, maybe addiction, or perhaps an illness, there are practical tools that work. You can begin today to create the outcome you want in your life. Your imagination not only works through your conscious mind, but, you can engage your subconscious mind through your imagination. What do you want? What do you need? You have every right to whatever it is. Begin to use this exercise that will show you how you can can get there!

Have you ever found yourself in a conversation or in a situation that you suddenly felt the need to defend yourself?

There are two parts of the mind. We have a conscious mind and we have a subconscious mind. The conscious mind, which is what we've focused on until now, is our thinking mind. The subconscious mind is more like the habit mind, or what I would call the programming mind. We often believe we're living our lives through our conscious mind, however, new science shows us that we're actually only using about 5% of our conscious-mind so, that means that 95% of the time, we're living out of our subconscious mind.The good news is that you can reprogram your subconscious mind to align with your true self!

Regardless of any beliefs or practices you may have, there's something you can do easily that will build your resilience to stress, anxiety and anger. In this episode, Niva takes you through mindful breathing so you get an overall idea of the practice without getting overwhelmed or distracted by details. It's just breath..."The only thing I personally think about when I'm aware of my breathing is the 'LETTING GO'... with every exhale, I intentionally let go of tension, of anything that doesn't support me or isn't working for me...or simply just doesn't feel good!"

As we become aware of our thoughts, words and intentions we set ourselves on a powerful path. The entirety of season 1 of this podcast has been deliberately laid out to help you establish the beginning process of self transcendence. Self transcendence is synonymous with self improvement. If we always stay in our comfort zone we make no progress. It's important to know how we can not just achieve more, but, how to overcome our negative or limiting thoughts and beliefs. Here are 5 steps you can apply to your ground work that will prepare you for the understanding and the process of 'HOW' all things are possible! You've heard that miracles are possible, but, it's becoming more and more like these miracles are extraordinary events that we hope for, but, because we've seen or experienced so little of the miraculous, we're not really sure it's possible. Or, perhaps it's for someone else, not yourself. For example, we may ask for healing; we pray, we hope, we may even feel as if we believe...but, do we know what we're believing? Do we understand what we're asking for? Do we know HOW to receive answered prayer?It's time to begin to live beyond the limitations and difficulties of life. "Let's do the ground work and rise up... All things are possible for you! As always, I believe in you! "~NivaSupport the show (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=XQGW7QET8K8FU&source=url)
