There are two ways to view April Fool's Day. The typical way is to make others look like a fool. The other is to reveal the fool already inside you. One leads us to Happy and Healthy. The other does quite the opposite. The question is, how would you like to spend your April Fool's Day? Listen and find out, then share with someone else who could use some Happy. You'll be Happy you did!Here's a great article from Very Well Mind that supports this concept: https://www.verywellmind.com/the-benefits-of-making-fun-of-yourself-5271389 Here's the link to "Be Kind to Yourself" by Andrew Peterson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYiM-sOC6nE The songs we used in this episode are "Be Kind To Yourself" by Andrew Peterson (see YouTube link above), "Are You Happy" by Primitive Radio Gods and "Make Someone Happy" by Jimmy Durante.

And the DMN is the Default Mode Network. Are you intrigued? I was. In the days that followed this podcast, I was more aware of the DMN. I am an overthinker. She will reveal the difference in this Podcast.I love that Dr. Betsy brings up that an eating disorder, and so too alcoholism, or any addiction, is a "coping mechanism". She didn't minimize this as just a problem. She clearly states that it is a "coping mechanism", without any judgment, yet with a solution.

This podcast is focused on Self-Kindness. It explains kindness and why being kinder to yourself in essential. You should kind to yourself, because kindness is healing and transforming. It opens your heart and helps you be emotionally centered. Kindness is an expression of compassion and care, to people that need or deserve that compassion or care, you included. Being kinder to yourself is not about becoming selfish or self-absorbed, or stop being kind to others. It's about being fair to yourself, and appreciating parts of you that do their best to help you navigate life and its demands. If you don't choose to be kind to yourself, who is going to do that? What if people around you cannot see the goodness in you, or fail to appreciate all that you do? Who is left to notice your goodness or best efforts? You are! Only when you learn to be kind and appreciative to yourself, you can be more kind and appreciative to othersThis podcast covers the following topics:- What is Kindness? (Inward and Outward Expression of Kindness)- Why you should be Kinder to Yourself?- What usually prevents you from Being Kind to Yourself?- And, How to become Kinder to Yourself?

In this episode of Fearlessly Authentic, I share the struggles I've experienced. At the time I was going through those tough times, I never could have imagined thinking how grateful I would be for those times. The struggles were really hard. Sometimes, I thought I would never get past them, but with the belief in myself to be push through, I gained knowledge about myself and my own perspective towards the fails. Remember that we are always going to be tested. We don't know for what reason in those moments, but know that it's to show us something about ourselves. It's a wake-up call and a reflection, so pay attention and be kind to yourself as you're going through it all. Fail, Gain, Reset. It's called Life.
This week on the CWC podcast I am doling out some tough love, even sharing my own experiences of getting kicked in the box when I needed it. If you are not in a place to receive it, that is okay! My first rule with all of my clients: we all need occasional tough love, but if you aren't mentally prepared then take some space and be extra kind to yourself :)https://linktr.ee/carolinemathias
Learning from others is key in life and for me, it's added joy that I always learn from many of my former students. A recent post from one of them caught my eye, mainly because I probably needed to apply it to my own life. She posted a very true statement: “Your past mistakes are meant to guide you, not define you. Love yourself a little extra today.” I needed that lesson again and it came at a great time too. Also once again, the teacher became the student. Thanks for listening.

The LDS Mission Podcast, Episode 142 - Be Kind to Your Toddler Brain In this of the LDS Mission Podcast, I, your host Jennie Dildine, take a deep dive into the fascinating concept of the "toddler brain" and its impact on those gearing up for missions or currently out in the field. I want to shed light on the dual nature of our brains—there's the higher brain that plans and reasons, and then there's the lower, more primitive part, or as I affectionately call it, the "toddler brain," which is all about safety and steering clear of pain. I get real about how this toddler brain tends to rear its head when we're faced with new challenges or experiences, stirring up fears and doubts. But here's the twist: instead of seeing it as a problem, I urge you to befriend your toddler brain. Treat it like you would a scared little one—offer patience, understanding, and self-talk to ease the worries. Throughout the episode, I share my insights on why embracing this toddler brain is crucial for personal growth, especially during mission experiences. As we wrap things up, I encourage you to check out the show notes for additional resources and freebies that can help you navigate the unique challenges of missionary life. So, buckle up, embrace your toddler brain, and let's navigate this mission journey together! If you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and write a review. I know this work will help missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did. Until next week my friends.

It's easy to look back and judge ourselves for things we've done in the past. We wonder why we chose what we did, why we did what we did, and think about what our life would be like if we'd done something differently. Wishing we could change the past is normal, but it doesn't help us move forward. It keeps us stuck and it causes a lot of pain. We can't go back, but we can start today to love ourselves, not in spite of what happened, but because of it. miscarriage, stillbirth, babyloss Get support from Amy!

Join Lyle Benjamin and Amanda as they discuss:How to tap into your deepest, biggest "why" to build resilienceHow Lyle overcomes hardship and creates meaningWhy 2023 is the year of one people, one planetResources:Come to Amanda's event on January 17th: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/474101469257PlannedActs.Org,LyleBenjamin.com,TheWorkingDead.UsSUMMARYOn this holiday episode of Unleashing YOUR Great Work, we are joined by Lyle Benjamin, an entrepreneur who is the founder of three (that's right - THREE) non-profit organizations: 16 Things Kids Can Do, Planned Acts of Kindness, and One Planet, One People. Leaving his life as a lawyer behind, Lyle found he always had a debt to repay for the kindness he had been shown since a young age, even if that meant repaying his debts by helping the community and our very own planet. Lyle discovered his Great Work was in the world around him, and he believes that this decade alone is going to determine the quality of life for the people and the planet from here on out. But, much like all Great Work, our bodies, minds, and souls can take a harsh beating when pouring our full-forced energy into the world, and we find a lack of resilience and stamina once our energies have been depleted. What does Lyle recommend? BE KIND TO YOURSELF! Lyle trusts the saying “we can't sweat the small stuff, “ and even though we may have many overwhelming things coming at us this holiday season, it's important to think about perspective. Remember, it's not about how much money you have, how many toys you get, or even how many eggnogs you drink…It's about the quality of your relationships with other people and your sense of community that help you rebuild your Great Work resilience. About the Guest:My name is Lyle Benjamin and I am the founder of three Non-Profit Organizations, 16 Things Kids Can Do, Planned Acts of Kindness & One Planet One People. I didn't start out wanting to change the world, I just wanted to repay a debt. When I was a child, I had a difficult family life at home. I started working when I was 11 years old just to get out of the house. I met people who took an interest in me, and I appreciated their acts of kindness so much that I went to law school with the goal of helping others. And boy was I naïve. After working with the NY Attorney General's Office, I decided the profession wasn't compatible with my goals. I left that behind and did many successful entrepreneurial businesses, but I felt I wasn't doing enough to repay my debt.So, I gave it all up and created the NPO Planned Acts of Kindness where I gamified Karma. But the world is in crisis and this decade is going to determine the quality of life for billions of people. I do speaking events and workshops about the collaborative steps individuals and institutions can take on a local, national, or global scale to push back on the tipping points issues as well as social, economic and health inequalities to provide quality of life for kids, people, and the planet. Like it or not we're all in this together and I share more about the 40+ programs and initiatives people and institutions can use — based upon their own interests and causes — to “Be the Hero” in my book: “ONE: The Fight for Survival of the Human Race.” Programs include The Collaboration Think Tank Network; The Work/Life Balance Collaborative Course; Money Matters Mastery; HR Custom Benefits...
Radical healing should be a non-negotiable for every woman, especially women of color. –Simona Sillah Curious about crystals? I'm really excited to talk with Simona Sillah about using crystals and other energy and mindset modalities for radical healing. Body, mind, and spirit work together, so we look at the energy around all of that. Simona shares her story of a health crisis that went ignored by traditional healthcare. She advocated to learn more. She finally got treatment that was making her sicker. That's when she sought out more holistic healing practices. What does it mean to surrender? How do you practice radical acceptance? It can be hard, especially when you want to be in control, so we talk about what that actually looks like day to day. But when the mind, body, or spirit is out of whack, the rest aren't working right either. Simona lists healthy thoughts, choosing what she consumed, and healing crystals as three pieces of her healing. We talk about: Recognizing our weaknesses and working on them Learning to be kind to ourselves, including finding the grain of truth in what people say about you without shaming yourself or putting too much attention on what they say Paying attention and giving yourself what you need, whether it is rest, a certain food, kindness Lessons that we learn and need to learn again and again Choosing crystals and using them to harness higher intentions Specific ways to use crystals, or what using crystals actually looks like day to day BIO Simona Folasade Sillah is a changemaker for underrepresented communities, working as a Community and Content Manager for SoGal Foundation by day and running her online metaphysical boutique ENHERGY for her side hustle. She offers over seven years of marketing and communications experience, with an extensive background in business development, public relations, entrepreneurship, and small business coaching. She holds her Master's degree in Communications Management from the University of Southern California, working alongside organizations —https://www.cdph.ca.gov/ ( California Department of Public Health) (CDPH),https://www.bbbs.org/ ( Big Brothers Big Sisters),http://www.makehers.com/ ( MAKEHERS) — providing equitable solutions and resources for underserved and marginalized communities. Simona's professional footprint has afforded her the opportunity to execute her life mission of empowering and galvanizing the creative and entrepreneurial pursuits of disruptively unique women — inspiring authenticity, self-confidence, and unmitigated grit. She's played a pivotal role in the advancement of female founders and women in business, within the Greater Sacramento Region, serving as Creative Business Coach for thehttp://www.hackerlab.org/ ( Hacker Lab), in partnership with thehttps://www.sac-iedc.org/ ( Sacramento Inclusive Economic Development Collaborative). Motherhood has been Simona's most prized life assignment, serving as a guide to her two young children, Josiah and Logan. When she's not stewarding her carbon copies towards boundless love and success, you may find her exploring a city near you, salsa dancing in a local discotheque or encouraging women of color towards radical healing!

80% of 2022 is over, so it makes sense that we would look forward to things we want to be different in 2023. One area we have a tremendous amount of control over is our health. But there's more to health than carrots and running shoes. Health is spiritual. Health is who we spend our time with, and health is how we see the world. In this episode, we get practical and discuss what we can do today to improve our health and the impact that has on our business and personal life. Lastly, here's the song Andy mentions in the episode. Be Kind To Yourself by Andrew Peterson StenMorgan.com/35
#LifeisaSacredJourney is live! Join us for a #selflove session with Megan Logan, LCSW and the bestselling author of Self-Love Workbook for Women. Today Megan introduces us to her new book, Be Kind To Yourself.
Your inner critic often makes it challenging to love yourself. But finding self-love is possible. Follow these 4-steps to silencing your inner critic and take a journey to find self-love that will transform your life. If your inner critic has overwhelmed you with negative thoughts, it's time to take a journey to find self-love. The journey to find self-love has many advantages When we find love for ourselves, we can better serve others. The Bible tells us to love others as we love ourselves, it doesn't say love others instead of ourselves. If we don't quiet our inner critic, the critic voice will stop us from doing what we are called to do to make a difference in the world. We are to love others as we love ourselves, but as Paul gently reminds us in Philippians 2:3, we are to be humble and value others above ourselves. So yes, self-love, self-respect, and honoring our bodies and minds, is important and right, but we are to do so by loving God first, and respecting and honoring others above ourselves. Self-Marriage as part of the journey to find self-love Erin's journey to find self-love began when she went to a festival and discovered the concept of self-marriage. Self-marriage is the concept that you are always there for yourself. She identified what she was looking for in a partner, someone to make her feel smart and beautiful, and there she learned that she could do this for herself. Through self-marriage, she committed to doing this for herself throughout the rest of her life. Until this point, Erin had been looking for a guy that would make her feel smart and pretty. She thought that if she found that guy, she'd be able to go out into the world and be her full self. The self-marriage experience was a turning point for her, that she could do this for herself. After this experience, Erin when to medical school to become a naturopathic physician. What is a naturopathic physician? Naturopathic physicians are trained to be primary care physicians. Toward the end of Erin's school journey, she discovered mind-body medicine. She decided to work in this area to help people find their mental-emotional issues so people could heal from their physical ailments. Erin worked in private practice doing mind-body healing for a while. She loved the deep work. Her work involved helping women discover that they were whole and complete as is. During Covid, Erin decided to take her business online. Her focus became self-love. The experience of teaching classes on self-love since 2009 came into play to help her build her online business. In a nutshell, Erin helps women feel comfortable and confident in their own lives. Our thoughts create our results Robyn emphasized that we, as women, experience so many things in our lives, traumas, relationships, etc. that lead to inner criticism. We know that our thoughts create our results. Our thoughts influence our emotions and feelings which in turn influence our actions, inaction, and behaviors. If you aren't working on your mindset, you will delay your ability to make progress in life or business. Likewise, you may not be able to discover true joy, hope, peace, and purpose. The inner critic and the entrepreneur's journey to find self-love One hundred percent of people have an inner critic, including the most successful people. Erin's first step to self-love is self-kindness. Self-kindness is the first step to managing the inner critic. Erin emphasized that self-love is a continual learning practice and development process. She doesn't consider herself to be an expert in self-love as she is still learning. One of the most common ways the inner critic shows up for entrepreneurs is through perceived failures. Failed launches, flopped reels, fear of going live or showing your face, comparison of other people you run into on your journey. The inner critic can stop you in your tracks. The question of why her, not me, can really drag a person down. If your inner critic is saying someone else is doing it better, then it is important to realize that there is a reason they are ahead of you. Instead of criticizing yourself, dive into how you can change your scenario to achieve your goals. For example, maybe the other person is posting on social media consistently and you are in an anxiety tunnel. Or, that person has been at it for 10 years and you are only 2 years into the journey. However, as easy as this sounds, the inner critic is irrational. Therefore, it is necessary to do the inner work. The 4 steps to quieting your inner critic on the journey to find self-love. Get to know your inner critic - the voice that rails on you because she is trying to protect you. Give her a name. Write down what your inner critic is saying - get it out of your head and onto paper. This will help detach from your inner critic so that it won't erode your heart and spirit. Identify where your inner critic is coming from, what is she trying to protect you from? There are two places where the inner critic comes from, growing up and experiencing childhood wounds and societal standards. The inner critic comes from a part of you that was wounded and hurt. She thinks there is something wrong with you, but there isn't, and you are worthy of love. Ask yourself, what wounded part of you is the inner critic trying to protect? Where is the place of worth that the inner critic is trying to get you back to? Recognize and release your inner critic. Tell her that you love her but that she is wrong. Explain to her that you don't have to do anymore to be loved. Don't ignore her, acknowledge her, and tell her that you release her and that you can take it from here. Our brains are 2/3 more likely to believe something negative than positive and look for something negative 2/3's more often than positive. It is part of life whether you are successful or not. This is often daily work. Replace your inner critic. This is the time to introduce a self-kindness practice. Train your body to be kind as a habit. The inner critic is the primary obstacle to being kind to yourself. Now that you can identify, acknowledge, and release your inner critic, you can create an environment where she won't thrive, an environment of kindness. The Undercover Kindness Tool to use on the journey to find self-love It is called undercover kindness because no one knows what you are doing. Your inner critic is the number one obstacle to you being kind to yourself. Now that you've identified and released your inner critic, you can create an environment of self-kindness where your inner critic cannot thrive. This is a way to train your internal environment to be kind to yourself. There are three parts to undercover kindness on your journey to find self-love. Breath Do this activity during a mundane moment in your everyday life. Erin recommends doing this when washing your hands or at times that are neutral and not stressful. Imagine every breath is a droplet of kindness. Send the breath to your body. Body Hold your body in a loving way. Check in with your body as you breathe. Where is the there tension? What part of your body can you relax or stretch? Words A kind inner dialogue with yourself. It will feel awkward but push through. Give yourself a pep talk. Congratulate yourself on doing a good job today, etc. Then, tell yourself that you love yourself. Look at yourself in the mirror and save it. Over time, this practice will become more natural and comfortable. Self-kindness is a practice, not something woo, but training your mind to be kind to yourself. This exercise will change how you. When you transform yourself by quieting your inner critic and changing your inner dialogue, you are more able to have strong relationships with others, you are less irritable and less reactionary. The more you love yourself the more you will accept love from others and the love from God. In addition, loving yourself will help you feel worthy of the love of God and others. Bible verses referenced in the episode Matthew 22:39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself. Mark 12:31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.'There is no commandment greater than these.” James 2:8 If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, “Love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing right. Philippians 2:3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves. Hebrews 13:5 “Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.'” Remember, God loves you unconditionally. When you are battling with your inner critique, pray, fall into your faith, and be reminded of how much God loves you.

hello. Hello, vitality seekers. This is your host Caroline Schafer. Today. I'm doing a very special episode and I am not having a guest and we are going to talk about the naughty and nice lists. I know lists of very prevalent this time of year with the holidays. And I thought it would be very appropriate to discuss that today. I'm hoping it's helpful for your holidays and we'll add a little peace throughout them. We all have these lists. I probably have more than most. I have lists upon lists everywhere I go and I even joke that my lists have lists, but seriously, this time of year, we all have holiday gift lists. Christmas lists, party to do lists, Christmas card lists, maybe a list of things that you're trying to accomplish before the holidays. But nonetheless, these lists that we're going to talk about today are naughty and nice list, they can help you feel better and manage the holiday season with a little hopefully kinder mindset. So let's talk about the nice list. The nice list is maybe six or eight things that you can put on it, for the holidays to bring you some peace and happiness, some small items that would benefit you personally. This holiday season is so stressful for so many and I think that most of us forget that it should be based around joy and we get caught up and all the craziness that gets put upon us commercially. So I have 12 items, like the 12 days of Christmas. some ideas you can put on your nice list, the be kinder to you list. Maybe there's a restaurant in your area that you've always wanted to try and you never took the time. That's a good one. Number two, buy yourself a favorite cup of coffee or tea or a brand of specific tea that you always enjoy. Three- call a best friend, or maybe someone that you've lost touch with that you've been meaning to contact. Number four, get a massage, a Mani and peti, and those feel good things. Get your hair done. That's always something kind for yourself. Number five buy your favorite meal. And this could either be going out or it could be even better. I liked the idea of buying the ingredients, maybe things that are not normally on your weekly grocery shopping lists and making something special, either with a loved one or a family member or you can do with friends, but take the time to enjoy without rushing a meal that you really, really like.Number six, 10, extra minutes, taking maybe a shower or a sauna or 10 minutes extra working out, or if it's something you really enjoy, but just put 10 extra minutes buffer somewhere on your schedule to add in some goodness for your health. Number seven a bath. Baths are very relaxing, especially at night. They do help and promote good sleep. It is not as much for the relaxation as you think it is more because when you get out your body core temperature reduces, and that is beneficial for REM sleep. But nonetheless, a nice bath with maybe a favorite playlist or a favorite audio book, add a candle. that hopefully will add some peace to this crazy time.Number eight, go for a walk at maybe a beach or a park or in the woods. There, a science behind that, that backs up the concept of walking in nature is better for you than just walking in a street. So maybe you could take advantage of. Number nine, meditate start if you have never done so or maybe add five minutes or 10 minutes to your normal regimen, meditation has so many wonderful benefits. If you haven't enjoyed the tranquility of that, then I hope that this will give you the incentive to do so. How about number 10, a date night? It can be with a girlfriend, a partner, husband, parent whatnot, it doesn't have to be complicated. It can be as something as doing Netflix and a pizza, but as long as you put it on the calendar, because when you do so you actually look forward to the event and that also releases endorphins as much as being in the actual event itself. Same situation as vacations. They have done studies and it's not just the vacation, but the planning, and the activities of looking into it actually is beneficial for your health as well. Number 11, hire someone for a task that you normally do yourself. Maybe one night, you could have a personal chef or at your house clean. Maybe you can get somebody to do your lighting outside and it doesn't necessarily have to be a company. Maybe some teenagers in the neighborhood. Then there is wrapping the gifts, I know a lot of people don't like that, that happens to be one of my favorite things, but, maybe you can hire your babysitter that normally watches your children to wrap your gifts and you can make cookies with your kids instead, that would kind of be fun or a home delivery for your groceries. If you don't normally do that, maybe this is a good idea this time of year to do something like that and try it and save yourself a little bit of time. These are all things that I hope add value or make deposits in your life. This time of year, there's so many withdrawals on our time, on our finances, on our emotion, mindset... we get so caught up with the negativity that we forget that it is supposed to be a time for peace and good things. I'd like you to schedule them, specifically with a day in a time. For instance, Monday morning at 9:00 AM, I will go to the farmer's market. So that is the nice list. All right. Then we have the, not to do lists the naughty list, I'd love for you to think of this as a peace protector. This is a list of things that don't add value to your life. It is not something that means you're bad, but it means that the act of doing this is negatively affecting you. So things that waste your time or distractions like social media or a long-winded person that you know. Or things that stress you out, maybe, you can limit time with those kinds of people that stress you out. I like to categorize people as either energy givers or energy takers and you really need to hang out with the energy givers, especially this time of year. So limit if you know, people that are drainers limit your time with them and have protect yourself. The next one, things that are not imperative, you want to get them done, but maybe just take a second and think this is really have to have to have to be done before the holiday. Can it wait until after the holiday and pull this burden off of me and make my life a little bit easier would that joy of not having that on my list outweigh the benefit of having it done. Think about that a little. And then things that you feel obligated to do. Learn to say, no, thank you. Learn to ask for help, lower your bar for expectations, don't try to be the Superman or the superwoman. Less can be more simplify things as much as possible and reduce that self pressure. And lastly, think about what is in your control. This is huge. Most things fall into this category. You really only can control yourself. You really can't control your kids, your partner, your employer, or any of those things. Examples of things that should be put on the, not to do list. I have 12 again; don't look at your phone may be for the first hour of the day. A lot of times that causes people undo stress. I meditate with my phone, so I use it right away, but a lot of times people, look at email and negative social media and they get a lot of angst right up and out of the get, go in the morning. That is not a good thing. Don't read those specific emails from specific people that you know, that are going to cause you aggravation, try to at least give yourself an hour to get up and get awake before you tried to ingest that. Number two, don't multitask, most things go faster with focus. I know everyone tries to multitask a million things. I am guilty as well, if it doesn't relate to other people, I will sometimes multitask. If other people involved, I try harder to keep focused with that individual. Number three, don't sit at your desk for more than an hour. It is proven that if you take breaks, it is much better for productivity. Then there's, if you have your head Hanker down and just keep at it. So, look up, make your eyes stared to something in the distance. That's good for your vision. Get up, shake those legs around. Tony Robbins says, Move your ass and you get happier, even 30 seconds. Um, they had surrounded. It definitely makes you feel better. Number four, don't stay up too late. It is best to get to bed by 10. The first two hours of sleep from 10 to 12 are equivalent to four hours of sleep after that time, because they help restore and regenerate all the healing in your body. So you're doubling up on your restorative benefits from getting to bed by 10. If you can keep a consistent schedule through the holidays, that will also help you keep focus and have more energy during your day and get more things done rather than stay up and keep pushing. Number five, don't go over your holiday budget. I know finances are a huge thing for people. I'll just say that something that I've been doing for years, and it's funny, cause it involves a list, but I keep index cards with everybody's name on the top. I write, ideas of gifts on one side, what I have bought and then I total it on the right side and keep a tally. It works great for kids and keeping things balanced. Um, but stick to it, track it. Number six, don't get caught up in the commercialism of the holiday. It's so easy to do the heck with the Jones is and make the cookies instead of buying the bigger gift, your kids will appreciate the time spent with them, then that gift that's going to end up getting dusty, and thrown in the corner. So time is the most important thing, not the object. Number seven, don't go off your routine. As we talked about with the sleeping same thing, and especially with exercise and diet, a lot of you hear people say you deserve it. It's a treat Baba. Um, treating yourself to depression. I never see a benefit in that. One of the ways that people do that is going off their diet, especially this time of year, a lot of sugar gets involved. That's a sure-fire way of having things go down a negative path. Number eight. Don't spend too much time with those energy drainers. We talked about that. Um, the negative Nellies the downers, the people who always al every story into something that makes you feel bad. Um, keep those assigned if their relatives keep those Conversations limited, excuse yourself, find something to do or when you get on the phone specifically say upfront that you have something to do in five minutes or something so that it it's limited right out of the gate. Number 10, don't go to all the parties or all the invitations you get. Um, if it's an enormous amount, some people have a very long list of invites, um, and it gets to be a job in itself. So learn to say, no, thanks. And it'll be okay. It actually will make you a little saner through the positive, through the process. Number 11. Don't try to do it all alone. Ask a friend, ask a neighbor, ask for help. Asking for help is such a beautiful thing. People like to feel wanted. And a lot of people hesitate to ask, but asking is a gift on both ends.It helps you and the other person usually enjoys giving. So, try, try to do that. It's a little bit of an uncertainty muscle for most of us, but asking is a good number. 12th don't hold onto grudges or negative feelings. This is very important. It probably the best one. I forgive fast and move on. I used to think that forgiveness equated to condonement. But it doesn't, actually when you forgive somebody, it helps you more than the person that you forgive. It's like taking the burden of weight off of you and you no longer have to think about. So remember that forgive fast and move on and put it behind you that it's not worth carrying around that extra weight. That a lot of times grudges and negative feelings carry, it's the holidays. It's the best time of year to do that. hopefully you guys all got some great ideas, some holiday hacks, if you will, that will result in less than usual signs of mental and physical fatigue. Please send me an email. If you utilize some of these and tell me what works best for you. I would really love that feedback. Um, And it would just be great to hear from all of those listening out there. And I very much appreciate you listening. So I thank you. Please send me an email. If you have implemented some of these ideas and let me know what worked best for you, I really would love the feedback. You can email to info@fitframeworks.com. Again, that's info I N F o@fitframeworks.com F I T F R a M E S. Dot com. Thank you. And I want everyone to remember that life has no remote. Get up and change it yourself. Happy holidays!

Getting known is the first step to influence, and at the end of the day, influence may be the single most accurate predictor of true leadership.If one wants to learn how to gain influence in today's business-to-business landscape, what better person to learn from than a leader with approximately 1 Million followers on LinkedIn?In this episode, we are fortunate to meet Educator, Speaker and Host, Consultant, and one of the Top 10 Influencers to follow in 2021 and beyond, Ahmad Imam.My Favorite Quotes from Ahmad in this episode, (paraphrased):“Be Kind To Yourself!”“Use your passion to find your purpose!”“Don't be a negative self-talker!”The best ways to connect with Ahmad Imam online are:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theahmadimam/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theahmadimamInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theahmadimam/About the PROFITABLE HAPPINESS™ Podcast:In this podcast, we feature stories from highly successful Experts and Creative Entrepreneurs who exemplify the use of Profitable Happiness™ to build influence and business success.

We sat down to talk about our mistakes and what we have learned from them. Mistakes are not to be resented. It shows that we have tried and we take with us into the future the knowledge and wisdom we need to win. The mistake that we make do not define us, they define the moment. We have an opportunity to learn from them and go deeper into who we are and live our lives fully
During this grateful season, we discuss what gratefulness is, what it looks like and the benefits of it.

In today's episode we talk about navigating uncertain times: COVID, Election Day, and all of the unknowns that come along with those things. Then, I give you simple, actionable steps to complete the stress cycle and get the stress out of your body. Honoring conflicting feelings the "both/ands". I would be relieved if Donald Trump were voted out of office. And I am discouraged that we continue to be faced with the fact that a large portion of our country feels that an old white man is the only person qualified to run our country. I'm working hard to hold space for both of those things in myself and in others. Not all stress is life-threatening these days but our brains have not caught up with our modern day lives. Our brains react the same way to being chased by a lion as they do to getting stuck in traffic, making you late for an appointment. Completing the stress cycle (adapted from Emily and Amelia Nagoski's book Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking The Stress Cycle. 1) Move your body: Walking, stretching, running, yoga, swimming, dancing. DO WHAT FEELS GOOD! 2) Create: paint, draw color, sculpt, knit, other arts and crafts 3) Laugh: Real, authentic, snorting laughter - watch blooper reels on YouTube, a comedy movie 4) Hugs: 6 seconds starts to change your brain chemistry, 20 seconds is even more beneficial 5) Breathing: 4-7-8 breathing - Inhale for 4 seconds, hold it for 7 seconds, exhale for 8 seconds 6) Writing: Journaling helps you get all of your feelings out of your body/brain and down onto the paper. This is extremely helpful in processing your feelings in a healthy way. I have created a free resource for you: Rest, Renew, & Rise: A Guided Journal for Self-preservation During Uncertain Times. Click here to download. Make sleep a priority. It may be harder to sleep when you're stressed so here are a few things to remember: 1) Your body may need more rest during times of stress/trauma. If you normally need 7 hours, you may need more than that 2) Try to keep a consistent sleep/wake schedule 3) Move your body 4) No caffeine after lunch. Try a big glass of water and a walk outside instead. 5) Limit alcohol because it can increase anxiety and decrease your sleep quality 6) Get some daylight early in the day. It helps regulate hormone production throughout the day. Be Intentional With Your News Intake. Pick 1-2 reliable sources. Decide when you will check them each day. Then, log off. DENIAL AND DISTRACTION CAN BE USEFUL TOOLS. Sometimes, the best thing for our brains is to check out until we're better equipped to process what's going on. BE KIND TO YOURSELF. If you need to binge Netflix, eat ice cream, collapse on the floor and cry, that's okay. RESOURCES: Rest, Renew, & Rise: A Guided Journal for Self-preservation During Uncertain Times.

What’s the one thing that is constantly taking place within our mind and is affecting our emotions?Our thoughts…We voice our thoughts through talking to ourselves. That voice has certain qualities, that voice carries certain messages. That conversation, we call it self-talk or inner dialogue.When it comes to our emotions, we need to understand that we have a choice.

Click here--------------------------------------------------------------------HOW TO BREAK OUT OF TOXIC RELATIONSHIP PATTERNSHeal all the parts of you (including the part of you that stayed or wanted to stay).Find a licensed counselor/therapist: Check out Open Path if you are in the US & money is an issue [https://openpathcollective.org/].Explore childhood wounds.Make a list of warning signs/red flags for future relationships.Be gentle with yourself.Read books to help you understand your issues better [i.e., I realized I struggle with codependency issues, so the following books helped me: “Codependent No More” by Melody Beattie” & “Facing Codependence” by Pia Mellody”]Buy a workbook for self-esteem [i.e., I bought “the Self Esteem Workbook” by Glenn R. Schiraldi”]Accept help from your support system and friends.Focus on living in the present.Practice positive self-talk.Write out a list of dealbreakers that you will stick to in the future.Assess what your boundaries are [see below for examples].Go no contact with your ex.Fully acknowledge you have a pattern of being in toxic relationships.Explore what relationships were modeled to you as a child.Think about a friend or family member’s relationship that you respect. Take notes [i.e., try to find a new “model” for a healthy relationship].Give yourself time to heal. Do not date until you are healed.Form new friendships + build a social network.Reconnect with any family + friends that you drifted from during your toxic relationshipDevelop hobbies + interests.Learn how to trust your gut/intuition in relationships.Consider seeing a psychiatrist for underlying issues (i.e., depression).Go outside more + go for walks.Don’t be afraid to tell your story.Cut out people from your life that don’t make you feel good about yourself.Get some sunlight + go outside.Aim for 7 to 9 hours of sleep per night.Take care of basic hygiene (brush your teeth, take a shower, etc.).Get rid of any reminders of your ex.Accept reality + abandon the fantasy.--------CORDELIA’S BOUNDARIES:I will not sleep with someone who calls me names.I will not reach out to someone who abandoned me.I will not take back someone who cheated.I will not have conversations with anyone if I feel desperate.

BE KIND TO YOURSELF train your mind to be more kind, tolerant, and self compassionate. It won’t be easy but it’ll be worth it. You are worth it.
Isn't it frustrating how we tend to be hypercritical about ourselves to the point that we sometimes end up walking away from those rare, life-changing opportunities? Think about it. WHY are we inclined to be more supportive, if not tolerant, of other's quirks than we are of ourselves? “But it's true, I'm not good enough at…” Pause. Hold it right there, buddy! Just because you're not the best at everything, doesn't mean you're not good at something. The first step to unlocking your potential is to acknowledge that YOU HAVE POTENTIAL! You don't have to stay stuck there, being a peg in the machine, because YOU are more than capable of overcoming ANY obstacle. You just gotta take initiative and put yourself out there because nothing worthwhile comes to us without putting in the necessary time and effort. But don't fret, there's a way to make this journey a whole LOT easier! "What do I need to do?" BE KIND TO YOURSELF. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. BE YOURSELF! "I'm not exactly sure how I can do that." Okay, how about we try this little exercise? Remember this every time that voice starts bringing you down: “It might take me longer to achieve the results I need, it might not even be as perfect as I've pictured it to be, but I am not alone and there's help where it is needed. As long as I keep putting one foot in front of the other and do what it takes to flip my life, I'll eventually find the road to success.” Or do what Jocelyn does! She stuck purple Post-it notes on her computer to remind her that SHE CAN DO IT. If you still don't believe the power of TAKING ACTION and how it leads to success, then you really need to check out this week's guest! We have none other than, Flip Your Life Community Moderator and the man behind RelaxandLearnGuitar.com, Kevin Depew. Kevin has been a long time FYL member, who was promoted to a leadership role in the community forums, but he didn't start his journey knowing everything he needed to take his next steps. In fact, as with any budding online entrepreneur, Kevin had his share of struggles too! From identifying what he was good at, to who the target audience is, to what's he going to sell and how he's going to sell his solution -- he had to keep going, he had to endure the hardships and evolve to find and figure out his true calling online. After months and months of learning, trying and moving forward, he finally tasted some hard-earned success in his "second-halfer," guitarist-based online community -- Kevin now has 29 paying members!!! Now, you know what we say here at Flipped Lifestyle, “If you found one, you'll find a hundred.. (a thousand, even).” So, how will he find the right people to join and grow his membership? Get ready for our action-packed, next level strategies that will help Kevin find more organic traffic and overcome the fear of not finding the right people to join his membership.

Running can be tough, not just on our bodies, but on our emotions and psyche. This is especially true whenever we experience any perceived setback; injuries, a rough workout or a less than desired performance in a race. We all talk to ourselves, whether we’re aware of it or not, but many people don’t realize that this self-talk actually affects our performance. This is both good and bad, depending on the type of self-talk in which we engage ourselves. If we habitually beat ourselves up after a setback, this can become detrimental to our running. On the other hand, if we use more positive self-talk, even after a setback, we can recover from it that much better. Evie Serventi, a competitive runner and swimmer, is the Deputy Editor of Running Fitness magazine in the UK and is also a Sports Psychologist. In this episode, she talks to us about the importance of Mental Training and shares with us techniques that she recommends for training our brains to help us run better and to not sabotage the effort we put into our physical conditioning. As you will hear, Evie and I have a wonderfully close relationship. She has been a tremendous resource for me and I think you will come away with actionable steps that will get your brain and body working more effectively together. Here are some of the topics we’ll discuss today: How running is helping refugees cope in England How Evie has helped Tina PR How to be aware of our self-talk and use it to perform even better Self-encouragement vs. Excuses How to use ‘Check-ins” to become aware of our mental states and adjust accordingly. How could a running diary help? What is ‘Reframing’ and how can we use it to improve our performance? Questions Evie is asked: 4:40 Tina’s Big Announcement 7:05 Evie’s Big Announcement 10:10 Will running be a part of it? 12:08 How did you become Deputy Editor for Running Fitness Magazine? 16:33 How did you get into sports psychology? 19:47 What advice would you give to someone who, later in life, is considering making a big career change or going back to school for something new? 22:00 What about the refugee group you’re working with? 28:57 Why be kind to yourself vs. being tough on yourself? 34:26 What does ‘Be Kind To Yourself” actually mean? 35:26 Should someone work on this prior to a race or can someone start doing it once they are racing? 38:11 How can people start putting these “Mental Bottles” into practice? 42:14 How do you avoid letting ‘being kind to yourself’ turn into just making excuses? 45:04 What’s a good exercise for people to start with? 48:32 What other mental strategies would you suggest for those thinking that they are struggling in various ways. 52:27 What are your future plans, website, other info? 55:05 Are you still taking on new clients? 59:13 The Final Kick Round Quotes by Evie: “Run your own race; control what you can control.” “Get comfortable with being uncomfortable.” “If you want to do something, you find a way.” “The risk, though with (motivating yourself via) negative emotions, or feeling angry, even if you feel that they’re positive at the time, is that they’re generally not sustainable.” “Self-talk is part of your mental training.” “There IS a lot you can control about your own performance and your own actions. You can’t control the weather, you can’t control the amount of runners, the speed of the other runners. But what you CAN control is your attitude and the way you approach the run.” “Keeping a diary of what you’re thinking, during a run, after a run / post-run thoughts, can often be quite revealing and help you in terms of “Where do I start? I’m not confident and I don’t feel like I’ve got the mental toughness to do this race.” “Ask other people; observe what other people who you think have mental toughness do. How do they train? What do they wear? What sort of statements do they say? What sort of language are they using?” Take a Listen on Your Next Run Want more awesome interviews and advice?

The study involves a sport-based early intervention trauma group protocol for unaccompanied asylum seeking children (UASC) who now live in Kent. The idea behind the intervention is to coach a group of young (male) asylum seekers through a series of running drills and fast feet movements to help them process trauma - trauma which they may have experienced back in their country of origin, on their journey to the UK, and ongoing trauma as a result of the stressful immigration process taking place.
