Welcome back, you beautiful, beautifully cluttered souls, to 'I AM' – the podcast that tackles the messy bits of life with a side of mindful mischief. Today, Find the Freedom to Be You (Authentically You) ...watch this episode on YouTube “One of the greatest regrets in life is being what others would want you to be, rather than being yourself.”―Shannon L. AlderI discovered that some people may not necessarily be “people pleasers”, but they still don't live with self-integrity…you know not living in accordance with one's priorities, desires and values. That could be because they don't truly know themselves or maybe don't want to ruffle any feathers. Therefore, they feel it's safer to live by societal expectations and beliefs rather than their true beliefs.There's also the trap of having an overly busy lifestyle that many people embark on with - little time to ask themselves “what do I really want?” or “what makes me happy?” I get it. I've spent my lifetime being a people pleaser, so when I broke the cycle I decided to dedicate the last 12 years to building a business that guides and supports individuals in living an authentic and fulfilling life. But first, why does authenticity even matter? Well, it's way easier being yourself than putting so much effort and energy into people pleasing for others. The energy it requires to continuously analyze situations and people so you can respond “appropriately” is insane!!! When someone is authentic, we look at them and feel their honesty, confidence and most likely wish we could do the same. Actually, don't you feel great being around someone who is authentic? It gives you the permission to be authentic too - feeling the freedom to be you. There are so many benefits to being authentic – respect from others, greater trust, solid and meaningful relationships, you can self-actualize, and simply be at your best!If you're on the “becoming my authentic self” journey, read on to understand the four pillars to being your authentic self. Essentially a roadmap on how to achieve (and maintain) being authentic – i.e. NO MORE PEOPLE PLEASING, oh, and some questions to support you on this journey. In the midst of our busy lives, it's essential to carve out time for self-care and reconnect with our authentic selves. One powerful way to achieve this is through engaging in hobbies. Hobbies not only provide a welcome escape from the demands of daily life but also serve as a means to nurture and express our individuality“As my awareness increases, my control over my own being increases.” – William SchutzFour PillarsNo.1 Self-AwarenessWho are you having a difficult time being yourself with? Why do you think that is?When do you catch yourself shrinking and almost disappearing? What is the reason for that?When are you stressed out? Who are you with? Why is that?Who do you have a hard time saying no to, but would like to? What are you afraid of? So what?In what area of your life do you feel lacks authenticity? I.e. Where do you feel you might be living out of integrity?"Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom."–Aristotle.No.2 Self-DiscoveryWhen thinking about your personality traits, do you think you are funny, shy, intelligent, introverted, secretly flamboyant, predictable, giving, athletic, direct, methodical? How would you describe yourself?Did you discover negative traits you might have? Like selfishness, blunt, lazy, compulsive, false, selfish, gullible, vindictive, naive, or moody? Do you always express those traits?What do you love to do? What do you despise? What are your dreams and aspirations?What are your biggest challenges lately and what are you doing about it?What are 25 things that make you smile? “What self-acceptance does is open up more possibilities of succeeding because you aren't fighting yourself along the way.” – Shannon AblesNo.3 Self-AcceptancePart of self-acceptance is also realizing that whatever you did in that moment (good or bad), is simply what you did in that moment, and what you were capable of doing in that moment. When you are able to see that truth, self-judgment disappears and self-love comes in! In the moment, you did the best you could. Instead of self-judgment, learn and move on.Self-acceptance is also the gateway to accepting others and their life path. Honestly, this is where we can begin practicing “Christ Consciousness” on earth. Becoming a vessel of love, truth, and goodness on the planet and actively striving to attain it."No other love, no matter how genuine it is, can fulfill one's heart better than unconditional self-love." —Edmond MbiakaNo. 4 Self-LoveAll of the above pillars are milestones to self-love, and self-love is the journey we are here to experience. When we have self-love, we can then love and accept others' differences, their path, their flaws (because we have them too) and all of this can lead to peace on earth. Sound dreamy? Yes, I know it does. However, I will encourage you to focus on just that and observe how your life changes. See who shows up in your life, see the opportunities that emerge naturally for you to live a happier and fulfilling life. Witness your relationships flourish, feel a decrease of stress and judgment, and feel free and light in your heart. ..Let's dive a little deeper as we explore the significance of hobbies for self-care and how they can aid in reclaiming your authentic self.Understanding the Role of Hobbies:Hobbies play a vital role in self-care by providing an avenue for self-expression, relaxation, and personal fulfillment. Engaging in activities that bring you joy and fulfillment allows you to step away from the pressure of constantly pleasing others and reconnect with your own needs and desires.Identifying Your Passions:Take time to reflect on activities that ignite your passion and curiosity. What hobbies have you always wanted to explore? Whether it's painting, gardening, playing a musical instrument, or photography, finding hobbies that resonate with you will help you tap into your authentic self.Cultivating Mindfulness and Flow:When engrossed in a hobby, you enter a state of flow, where time seems to stand still, and you are fully present in the moment. This mindful immersion in an activity helps alleviate stress, anxiety, and the need to please others. Embrace this state of flow as a way to reconnect with your inner self and experience a sense of fulfillment.Prioritizing Personal Time:Make a conscious effort to prioritize personal time for engaging in hobbies. Set aside dedicated moments in your schedule to pursue activities that bring you joy and peace. Recognize that investing in self-care is not selfish but essential for your overall well-being.Setting Boundaries:As you embark on your journey to break free from people-pleasing tendencies, it's crucial to establish boundaries. Communicate your needs and limitations to others, ensuring that you have enough time and energy to dedicate to your hobbies and self-care. Remember, saying no to others allows you to say yes to yourself.Seeking Professional Support:At Sonya Janisse, Holistic Health Coaching, we understand the challenges of breaking free from people-pleasing tendencies. We provide a compassionate and supportive environment where you can explore the underlying causes and develop strategies for reclaiming your authentic self.

In today's episode, Gina discusses the topic of bodily sensations and the mysterious ways that anxiety can cause them. Anxiety related bodily symptoms have an uncanny capacity to move and shift around the body in ways that physical ailments do not. Learning to discern what signals coming from the body are truly urgent and which are fleeting and quite possibly anxiety related is a useful skill that can be developed.

Quote: Learn to differentiate between urgency and the gentle call for attention – both are valid, but one requires immediate action, the other, a moment of self-care. – Thich Nhat Hanh Chapters 0:00:24 Welcome to the Anxiety Coaches Podcast 0:02:57 The Lingering Effects of Long-term Anxiety 0:05:23 Understanding the Mobility of Anxiety 0:07:26 Acknowledge and Heal Without Judgment 0:09:56 Embracing Patience and Compassion 0:12:36 Give Yourself Permission for Healing 0:14:42 Cultivating Mindfulness in Self-care 0:16:16 Exploring Holistic Healing Modalities Summary In today's episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, I, Gina Ryan, am delving into the topic of persistent anxiety sensations. Despite having touched on this subject before, I believe revisiting it is valuable as repetition often leads to fresh insights. I address the perplexing issue of experiencing lingering symptoms even when feeling fine, which can trigger fear and perpetuate the anxiety cycle. It's crucial to understand that progress is not lost during such moments, and having patience and utilizing tools can help navigate through these sensations. I use the analogy of walking with a sharp rock in your shoe for a year to illustrate how healing from long-term anxiety takes time. Just as removing the rock brings relief but the foot needs time to heal, addressing anxiety provides immediate relief but requires patience for the body and mind to recover fully. Acknowledging the mobility of anxiety symptoms, which can shift across the body, is essential to distinguish them from physical ailments. Embracing the body's signals without resistance fosters calmness and aids in the healing process. Granting oneself permission for the healing process without imposing deadlines is crucial, along with differentiating between urgent signals and those seeking attention. Cultivating mindfulness through practices like meditation and yoga allows for a deeper connection with the body and fosters detachment from persistent sensations. Exploring holistic healing modalities such as massage therapy and acupuncture can complement conventional medical care and support overall well-being. Learn more about your ad choices.

Find a comfortable position, either sitting or lying down, and gently close your eyes. Take a deep breath in, filling your lungs with fresh air, and exhale slowly, releasing any tension or distractions from your body and mind. Shift your focus to the present moment. Begin by bringing your attention to your breath, noticing the sensation of the air flowing in and out of your nostrils or the rise and fall of your abdomen. Allow your breath to anchor you in the present. As you continue to breathe, bring your awareness to your body. Scan through your body, from head to toe, noticing any areas of tension, discomfort, or relaxation. Simply observe any sensations that arise without judgment or the need to change them. Now, expand your awareness to your surroundings. Notice the sounds around you—the gentle hum of the environment, the distant sounds of nature or city life. Allow these sounds to come and go, without attaching to them or getting caught up in them. Shift your attention to the physical sensations in your body. Notice the points of contact between your body and the surface you're resting on. Feel the weight of your body being supported. Observe any sensations of warmth, coolness, or tingling. As you continue to practice present-moment awareness, gently bring your attention to the thoughts and emotions that may arise. Allow them to come and go, observing them with curiosity and detachment. Resist the urge to analyze or judge these thoughts and emotions. Imagine yourself sitting by a serene and calm lake. Visualize the stillness of the water, reflecting the beauty of the surrounding nature. Allow your thoughts and emotions to be like ripples on the surface of the lake, arising and fading away. With each breath, invite a sense of acceptance and non-judgment toward your experience. Embrace the present moment as it is, without seeking to change or control it. Cultivate a gentle curiosity, observing each moment with fresh eyes. Now, shift your attention back to your breath. Notice the sensation of the air entering your body with each inhale, and the release of tension with each exhale. Allow your breath to be your anchor, bringing you back to the present moment whenever your mind wanders. Take a few moments to fully immerse yourself in this present-moment awareness. Allow yourself to be fully present, without the need to be anywhere else or do anything else. Embrace the richness and beauty of the present moment. When you feel ready, gently bring your awareness back to the room. Wiggle your fingers and toes, allowing gentle movement to return to your body. Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, open your eyes. Carry the practice of mindfulness and present-moment awareness with you throughout your day. Embrace each moment as an opportunity for mindfulness and a chance to connect with the beauty and richness of the present. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Meditation - it's such a buzzword, we've all heard it's good to practice meditation to give our minds a break - but what is the true power of it? In today's ep I speak with meditation expert Caroline about her teaching practices, how she got into meditation, and how it has changed her life. Now I know meditation isn't for everyone, it wasn't for me for almost 5 years until I seriously committed to meditating for 100 days straight and now rarely a day goes by where I don't sit down and meditate. I can wholeheartedly say it has been one of those tools and practices that has been integral to my personal and mental growth. If you're on the fence about meditating, or think it's too 'woo woo' for yah, give this poddy a listen! Caroline's Instagram & Caroline's Website Click below to chat with us! Instagram & Facebook

Cultivating Mindfulness is all about learning to drop into the here and now. Present moment awareness is the cornerstone of a mindfulness practice. This 8 minute meditation guides you as you learn to return to the present moment over and over again; allowing you to enjoy what the here and now has to offer. Kindly leave judgment and criticism at the door of this practice, as they will not be needed here

What is mindfulness and how does it relate to self-caregiving? Mindfulness is the glue that connects all the self-caregiving strategies together. It helps keep us grounded, focusing on the present so that we don't ruminate or worry about the future or past which can lead to stress and burnout. How do we cultivate mindfulness? You will hear about many forms of meditation. We talk about prayer, curiosity, stillness and breathing exercises as ways to cultivate this helpful strategy. It may take effort, but it is certainly worth exploring the benefits with Theresa and Alison in this episode.

Whether you are new to the practice of Yoga or are a seasoned Yogi, it's helpful to understand the foundational principles of Yoga so that when you practice, you can grow, evolve, and transform both on and off your mat. Much more than the physical practice of Yoga, there's an inner peace and love that can be cultivated to help you extend your gifts to the world and help you discover and achieve your purpose, which many of us are after. The 8 limbs of Yoga provide guidance on how to obtain spiritual enlightenment, but the first 2 limbs specifically, which are the Yamas and Niyamas, help to cultivate mindfulness and self awareness which promotes a happy and fulfilling life. Listen to this episode as Dr. Connie breaks down the 8 limbs of Yoga, and expands on the Yamas and Niyamas so that you can apply them in your life as we embark on a new year towards growth and transformation! .

Themes: Anger, Emotions, Mindfulness, Meditation, Breathwork, Self-Awareness Summary: “Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” I've loved this quote from Viktor E. Frankl for a long time, and it speaks directly to the topic of today's episode: mindfulness. Tune in as I explore with returning guest Manoj Dias what is possible when we commit to a practice of loving self-awareness.  Born and raised in the Theravada Buddhist tradition, Manoj Dias is an animated speaker, humble teacher and always a friend. Once tethered to a life of self-management, instead of self-awareness, he now intimately understands what it means to be healed from the inside out. Through mindfulness and meditation, Manoj has helped thousands of people around the world trade mania for pause, so that they may live fearlessly in honor of a happier and more meaningful life.  Discover: Mindfulness and how developing a practice can quite literally change your life and relationships The beauty of anger (and what's often beneath this emotion) Meditation as a tool for self-awareness and why we may resist it Somatic mindfulness and how it can help you become more present and grounded Breathwork as a powerful tool to cultivate more presence, connection and peace 00:00 Intro 01:38 Reconciling our feelings through wisdom 04:49 Choosing how we react 08:56 Why we continue to operate in unhelpful patterns 11:01 The beauty of anger & what's often beneath it 20:06 Observing your mind 24:21 Somatic mindfulness 33:41 Developing a mindfulness practice 36:59 Breathwork Links: Try Open free for 30 days at withopen.com/createthelove and use code CREATETHELOVE at checkout!

In today's episode, Gina discusses the importance of cultivating mindfulness in order to heal anxiety using a Blinkist of Jon Kabat-Zinn's Wherever You Go There You Are. Gina shares a number of methods for "being" in the moment rather than "doing" and thereby increasing your mindfulness and your ability to heal your anxiety. To learn more go to: http://www.theanxietycoachespodcast.com Join our Group Coaching Full or Mini Membership Program  Learn more about our One-on-One Coaching What is anxiety? Quote: Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally. This kind of attention nurtures greater awareness, clarity, and acceptance of the present-moment reality. It wakes u up to the fact that our lives unfold only in moments If we are not fully present for many of those moments, we may not only miss what is most valuable in our lives but also fail to realize the richness and the depth of our possibilities for growth and transformation. -Jon Kabat-Zinn Learn more about your ad choices.

There is a talk and then discussion.

John Abate is a returning guest from Episode 13. In Episode 13 John discussed how he integrated his mindfulness based stress reduction practice as a large part of his recovery from a horrible hit and run incident on his bicycle. He not only recovered but got back up stronger than ever and went on to win and crush cycling events.  He also became committed to providing hope and support to other accident survivors. This year John took his mindfulness practice next level and became a MBSR certified instructor. In this conversation we discuss his journey to be more connected to the earth and to teach Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). We both agreed that this is a crucial time to spread awareness of the benefits of mindfulness. Being able to use our mindfulness tools as we emerge and sift through the dust and debris of 2020 will be more important than ever on so many levels! Thank you @johnjabate for shining your bright light, sharing your warm grounding energy, the amazing conversation and the generosity of your time.

How can you incorporate small healthy habits to really create a sustainable approach to health and wellness? Holistic nutrition practitioner and weightlifting and mindset coach, Stephanie Gaudreau, talks about what these habits could be, from reframing the diet culture to weight training to cultivating mindfulness and more! Visit https://holisticwellness.ca/podcast for the complete show notes of every podcast episode.Topics Discussed in this Episode: Steph’s own journey to better health and wellness Steph’s core 4 pillars of health The things that Steph have had to unpack and unlearn for herself What is wrong with the diet culture The bio-individual approach to nutrition Steph’s non-negotiables when it comes to health and wellness Tips and suggestions for women who want to get started in strength training Steph’s Fuck-It List Key Takeaways: A nourishing way of eating is not just what you eat, it’s how you eat it and why you eat it. It’s eating food while understanding your goals and your bio-individuality. There is a huge benefit for women when it comes to strength training that goes beyond aesthetics. There is no one correct diet that applies to everyone. There are multiple ways of doing things. The question is not whether a certain food is right, but whether it’s right for you or someone else. Action Steps: Reclaim your health and be free from diet rules. Make sure that you’re in line with the core 4 pillars of health Eat nourishing foods. Strengthen your body. Recharge your energy. Get your mindset right. If you’re serious about getting started in strength training, go to a place where you can learn from someone.   Steph said: “Women are really good at thinking about eat less, move more. But oftentimes, we’re missing a lot of what I call low-hanging fruit, easy changes that we can make in these other areas or other ways of thinking about food.” “We absorb so many things consciously, subconsciously. We’re explicitly taught things. And having awareness is a key first step… It’s just a practice of observing your own thoughts and behaviors.”   Thanks for listening!   Important Announcements: I want to invite all of you to sign up for our weekly newsletter!

Mindfulness and meditation began as aspects of various religions, but are now used more broadly because of the evidence that focused breathing and meditation can ease physical and emotional stress.  Mindfulness is not just sitting still and closing your eyes, as this is not relaxing for some people, but rather it is a way to train our attention and clear our thoughts.  This is training our minds to be quiet and stay in the present moment as well as training our bodies to be aware of the sensations going on around us.  A focused mind is a happy mind, so it is important for people young and old to learn to be mindful. Children have less attachment to memories of trauma early in their lives, so it is important for us to teach them specific practices of mindfulness such as breathing, to give them the tools to cope with their emotions and external stimuli as they get older.  Breathing is the first thing we receive after birth and it is the last thing we lose before death, and though we usually don’t even realize that we are breathing, it is a tool that we can use to our advantage throughout our lives. As part of your children’s bedtime routine, have them lay on their backs and put a stuffed animal on their bellies and then practice focused breathing by having them “take the stuffed animal for a ride” as their bellies go up and down as they breathe. Another good way to teach children mindfulness is using books such as “Moody Cow Meditates” or “Spinning Inward.” I also recommend that you look into the work of Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn at the Center for Mindfulness at the University of Massachusetts, Dr. Susan Kaiser’s video about how our anxious minds are like a shaken snow globe, and Dr. Nazanin Moali’s Sexology podcast.   To connect with Psic.

"This article discusses mindfulness and its history, the potential benefits and applications to perioperative nursing, and suggestions for cultivating mindfulness."

In this episode, Laura Fish and I continue the conversation about teaching with the brain in mind by going deeper into mindfulness…a word we hear tossed around with a great deal of regularity these days. It is our hope that through this conversation, early educators will see the complexity and the simplicity of mindfulness concepts and practices. Meaning…we hope to help show how mindfulness in EC isn’t a fad, or something we “just add to part of our routine”….and how mindfulness is more than a spiritual concept …it is in truth…a set of practices, which closely align to many quality care and educational practices that have a rich tradition in our field. We also dig into how mindfulness is a key part of building children’s brains and how we can create and embed opportunities throughout our daily routine. This is an episode you aren’t going to want to miss.

"[It is] like seeing roasted meat and other dishes in front of you and suddenly realizing: This is a dead fish. A dead bird. A dead pig. Or that this noble vintage [wine] is rotted grapes… perceptions like that… latching onto things and piercing through them, to see what they really are… to strip away the legend that encrusts them." ~Marcus Aurelius
