THE WORKFollow Learning to Love our Bodies“Your body hears everything your mind says.”—Naomi JuddWhat if we stopped allowing our brains to bully our bodies? “Ilove my body” doesn't mean I have to like everything about it.But it does mean I stop my brain from bullying her.Enter this work thinking of your future self, your favoriteversion of yourself, the one who doesn't bully her body everyday. The one who speaks kindly to her body and doesn't judgeher or others. When you get excited about that version, onlythen begin asking all the questions.Questioning everything with excitement is a method forliving. It's where we choose to not only heal, but live. It'swhere we decide to not only think but do!Your body loves you. She has proven this time and timeagain. Now, show her some love by healing some open woundsyou still have.This work helps you to UnFollow society defining what ourbody should look like and making the decision you will defineit! Year after year, we criticize our bodies, and it hasn'tchanged anything; so, it's time to change the status quo and,instead, do the work and Follow learning to love our bodies.This is your reminder that you do not need to love everypart of your body in order to be kind to it. What if you beginthis work by treating your body the way you hope yourdaughter treats hers, the way you pray your son treats his?Sometimes, the thought of loving our bodies is too far-fetched;but imagining it's your daughter's, your mother's, your bestfriend's, that changes your mindset and leads you on the pathof healing.List all the things your body has done for you. Don'tstop until you get to at least twenty.Write a letter to your body, apologizing for the wayyou have bullied it, including the things you have madeher miss out on. Then, burn it!UnFollowing all the abuse you did to her requires youto replace it with a new following. Write a letter onhow you plan to treat her, going forward. How youplan to learn to love her. Write it from a place of joyand excitement and possibility. No shame can live inthis letter! Laminate it! Put it on your mirror. Have itin plain sight, read it every day, until your mind nolonger bullies your body.Write on a Post-it: “I love my body and everything shehas done for me.” Place it somewhere you see it daily.Get your copy of Melissa's bestselling book, UnFollow: Question Everything with Excitement, and download the FREE WORKBOOK!Curious about Group Coaching?

Do you believe that being creativity builds resilience? Well this week we aim to convince you so get ready. In support of the the upcoming www.fova.org.au we outline how: when you engage in creative activities, you increase your brain's capacity for creative thinking, pattern recognition, and developing visual-spatial skills. These skills enhance your problem-solving abilities in real-life situations From Ruth Richards (Harvard), “Engaging in creative behaviours, makes us more dynamic, conscious, non-defensive, observant, collaborative, and brave.” “Everyday creative activity is a path to flourishing”- Conner, DeYoung and Silvia in the Journal of Positive Psychology. Recent experience sampling and diary studies have shown that spending time on creative goals during a day is associated with higher activated positive affect (PA) (flourishing) on that day. The real question isn't "How creative are you?" but rather "How are you creative?" says educational psychologist Donald Treffinger.

Jason Chats with Heather Newton and Connor Wake.
In this episode, we consider the readings for Proper 24 (Year C in the lectionary cycle): Luke 18:1-8; 2 Timothy 3:14-4:5; Psalm 119:97-104; Jeremiah 31:27-34.We begin with Jesus' parable of the persistent widow and discuss how his story upends our preconceptions about God's accessibility and invites hopeful, trusting engagement in prayer. We consider Paul's timely guidance for staying focused and faithful, rooted in the Scriptures. We talk about the transformative impact of memorizing Scripture and the Psalmist's love for God's life-giving words. And we end with a lot of questions about Jeremiah's words. Notes:There are a lot of useful resources out there for memorizing Scripture. There are apps where you can record yourself saying passages, "games" where you can fill in the blanks, sites where you can type out verses, all sorts of techniques that you may find useful, but it doesn't have to be complicated. Here's what I've found to be helpful:--Select a passage you personally want to learn.--Consider the reality of your daily life. Sometimes memorizing a longer ambitious passage is feasible, but regularly working on various disparate passages (e.g. focus on a smaller single-verse passage every two weeks) may be more doable.--Write or print out the passage. Laminate it if you love office products (like I do!) or find a way to jot it down and carry a notecard around with you.--Look for times during your day (or night!) when you can recite the passage to yourself. Repeat it audibly. Try to say it without looking. Go back and check yourself. Keep repeating it. --Note "anchors" within the passage that can help stay grounded in the flow of thought - these may become especially meaningful to you as they pair with memories from your daily life at this time.--Every time you review your memory work, add a phrase or sentences. --Soon, the "new" phrases that you had to check every few words will become "old" familiar ones, tucked away in your memory, as you continue to build.--That's it! Like any muscle, it will grow with use. At first, you may find it takes two weeks to learn a verse, but as you proceed, it will become easier.--Some passages (like Psalm 119) may be easier to memorize, because they've been designed with rhetorical "anchors." For instance, knowing there is a cohesive thought centered around four verses makes it easier to memorize. Our outro music is an original song by our friend Dcn. Jeremiah Webster, a poet and professor whose giftedness is rivaled by his humbleness. You can find his published works, including After So Many Fires, with a quick Google.
Of course you teach your crews not to stick their hands in the saw. They know long hair can get caught in a drill. Safety is often taught but not often focused on routinely. Troy Pefley owns Royal Carpet One in Fernley, Nevada but has been doing carpet since 7 years old with his grandpa. He has taken a different approach to the standard retail shop and uses an employee model instead of a subcontracting one. Troy and I discuss how he manages the employees, insures safety is a priority, and makes sure they keep it top of mind so everyone can continue to be as successful as possible.Need new headphones for working and listening to Floor Academy?

Why do small retailers and contractors let the big guys "brainwash" the public into loving them? Lots of box stores offer some type of training to the public to help them facilitate their project and most contractors would say the training is garbage.

Businesses are born from creativity but can become machines very quickly. William S. Burroughs said, "When you stop growing you start dying". Creativity will help encourage growth along but many times it is shutdown before it can even be offered. Contractors will stop their employees from voicing ideas for better methods or not let the new guy get two words in. This is harming your company.Jeff Newcomer is the product manager of GoBoard for Johns Manville.
