Dearest MamasToday, I want to talk to you about the incredible power of a happy list. It's a concept that impacts my life profoundly, and I believe it can do the same for you. So, grab a cup of tea, find a cozy spot, and let's dive into this wonderful practice together.A happy list is a sacred collection of things, experiences, and thoughts that bring you joy, gratitude, and happiness. It's a reminder of the beautiful and positive aspects of your life, a snapshot of the moments that make your heart sing. When you create and engage with a happy list, you invite more happiness and positivity into your life.The first thing that makes a happy list so powerful is its ability to shift your focus to the positive. We live in a world where negativity can easily overwhelm us—stress, challenges, and hardships are a part of life. But with a happy list, we intentionally redirect our attention away from those negative aspects and train our minds to dwell on the things that bring us happiness. By consciously shifting our mindset towards positivity, we can improve our mood, our overall outlook, and our resilience.One of the greatest powers of a happy list lies in its ability to boost your mood instantly. When you're feeling down, stressed, or overwhelmed, revisiting your list can be a soothing balm for your soul. Engage with the items on your list—listen to your favorite uplifting music, immerse yourself in the beauty of nature, or engage in activities that bring you pure joy. By intentionally immersing yourself in these moments of happiness, you can quickly uplift your mood and restore your emotional well-being.[Time Stamps][00:00] - Acknowledgements[00:40] - The Power of a Happy List[01:55] - The Process[04:00] - Blind to What We Have[05:48] - Right Now[07:30] - Filling Up[09:00] - A List[12:52] - What it' All ForSo, my dear friends, I invite you to create your own happy list. Whether it's a physical journal, a digital document, or a mental compilation, make it a sacred practice to regularly engage with it. Take the time to review, update, and add new items that bring you joy and happiness. Allow yourself to be fully present in those moments as you engage with your list, savoring the joy they bring.Remember, the power of a happy list lies in the act of consciously focusing on happiness. Embrace it as a daily ritual, a sanctuary for your soul.

This was the call to action I felt as I read Annabelle Sharman's @liveinoneness book "The Future Ancestors"... and felt again when I interviewed her for this week's podcast.What if we thought of ourselves in this way? What would change? How will we come together to nurture and protect this land? And what legacy will we leave behind? Annabelle Sharman is a proud Mutti Mutti woman who honours her ancestral cultural heritage through her work as a multi-disciplinary artist and healer. A certified social worker, reiki master, and holistic counselor—today her work is located at the intersections of art, culture, community, health, and wellbeing. At the core of Annabelle's methodology is the YUMA Spirit Cloth Healing Process, a unique merging of therapeutic practices, cultural knowledge, storytelling, and art that cultivates a deeper connection to self and others, that often leads to improved well-being and emotional healing. This conversation with Annabelle stirred something in me... perhaps it will in you too. Listen now on your podcast players or Youtube, and let Annabelle and I know.

As an up and coming band, you're probably looking for new ways to grow your fanbase and earn some money. One of the best ways to do this is by playing live shows - and not just a few shows, but lots of them! The caveat is, it's important to spread them out and avoid saturating any single market by playing too many shows in the same city. By playing in different cities, you'll have a chance to reach new audiences and grow your fanbase. Booking shows can be a daunting task, but it doesn't have to be painful. With the right mindset and approach, you can book more shows and grow your band's audience while having fun and bringing in revenue. Join us now to learn how you can book shows that will help boost your band to the next level! What you'll learn: How to book shows for your bandChoosing the right type of venue to bookHow to find venues to playSetting expectations for promotersResearching venues to playHow to get booked more oftenFollowing up with venues or show promotersHow your band can play more shows and get invited back!

What if at the outset of any new endeavor—a new job, a new hobby, a new book—we gave ourselves permission to just try? What if we remember going in that we can always change our minds, that trying is just trying, not committing? I think we all need to fill our lives with more no-strings-attached tries. This week I share some ways to do just that.   Learn more about Kristen Manieri and coaching: Kristen@kristenmanieri.com KristenManieri.com   Host Bio Kristen Manieri is a coach who works with teams to increase both productivity and wellbeing. She also helps individuals navigate transition with clarity and confidence.

If you've ever considered coaching, or if you're feelings stuck or you're about to make a big transition, reach out to me and we can talk about how I can help you navigate what's ahead with more confidence and clarity. You can reach me at Kristen@kristenmanieri.com.   Full Transcript The other day during a yoga class, the instructor invited us to add a few adjustments the pose we were in. “You can reach upward. You can extend through your toes. You can even extend one leg back,” she said. “And remember, you can always change your mind.” Hmmmm. I thought. That's new. I'd never heard an instructor say that before. But I immediately noticed a sense of ease around my willingness to attempt the more challenging iterations of the pose. In essence, she was giving me permission to just try.    This struck me as an important life lesson.  What if at the outset of any new endeavor—a new job, a new exercise experience, a hobby, a new book—we give ourselves permission to just try? What if we remember going in that we can always change our minds, that trying is just trying, not committing?   The thing about trying something new is that we can't possibly know going in how we will feel about it once we've started. We can predict based on our past experiences and what others might have experienced, but the truth is that we really don't know what's going to happen until we try.   I think we all need to fill our lives with more no-strings-attached tries. Here are some ways to do just that:   Dabble In 2015, author Elizabeth Gilbert gave a talk for Oprah's SuperSoul Sessions on the two types of passion-seekers: jackhammers and hummingbirds. While jackhammers fixate on a project or task with relentless, almost obsessive, devotion, hummingbirds move from tree to tree, flower to flower, trying all sorts of things along the way.   This metaphor points to how we can let go of passion and instead follow curiosity. Said another way, we dabble. Dabbling is all about trying new things—hobbies, interests, experiences, foods—for the sake of not only expanding our horizons, but to disrupt our habitual thinking patterns and discover innovative thoughts, ideas and solutions.   You make trying new things part of your regular routine. Begin with starting a dabble journal or creating a list of things you'd like to explore. Dabbling doesn't commit you to anything or mean that you have to give up anything; it simply means you check things out. Once you have a solid list, make some time each week to do some dabbling. Watch a YouTube video, go to the library and find some books, listen to a podcast, do some Pinterest pinning, and get out in the world and explore where your curiosity leads you. Notice how this process makes you feel. Be present to the experience of dabbling.     Play According to Stuart Brown, author of Play: How it Shapes the Brain, Opens the Imagination, and Invigorates the Soul, play is an essential part of wellbeing. Why? Because it is in our moments of fun and freedom that we disengage from time, purposefulness and worry. Said plainly, it's where we find joy, a precursor to optimism, possibility and insight.   But play can feel so indulgent and silly, even awkward. It's as though we forget how to do it once we become adults. Turns out, we're simply out of practice. Making intentional space for play is a habit we can cultivate by beginning to consider what makes us laugh and feel unplugged. We prioritize play because feeling good matters.   A life that is devoid of fun and play begins to feel gloomy and lackluster. But when we sprinkle our days with laughter and levity, even our tough moments can feel less difficult. Joy makes life more beautiful, fun and easy. Play makes us feel more alive.   Try making a list of things that are fun to you. Think of board games that make you laugh, and pastimes or hobbies that make you smile. Consider what you loved to do as a kid. Grant yourself permission to set aside time for these activities each day or week.     Consider designating the time between dinner and going to bed as “playtime.” Commit to 30 to 60 minutes of play and fun by yourself or with others. Make play a priority.    Flaneur I'd never heard the word “flaneur” until l I interviewed Erika Owen on my podcast. Erika was so smitten with the French concept of meaningfully and mindfully meandering through a city that she wrote the book, The Art of Flaneuring: How to Wander with Intention and Discover a Better Life.   Wandering is in direct contrast to our highly purpose-driven way of doing life. Whether we're at a grocery store or walking through our neighborhood, we know exactly what we mean to do and where we mean to go. But in our single-mindedness and narrowed determination, we miss out on what's lying at the edges of our attention.   The antidote to this linear thinking and living is what Andrew Dietz describes as purposeful purposelessness in his book Follow the Meander: An Indirect Route to a More Creative Life. When we wander with intention, we cultivate mindfulness and tap into new insights, but also increase gratitude and fall more deeply in love with wherever we are. We loosen our preoccupation with what is in order to create space for what could be.   Try spending some time each day or week being aimless. Set aside ten or fifteen minutes to wander, even if it's in or around your own home. Resist the urge to do something productive or accomplish anything. Notice any discomfort you feel and use it as an opportunity to be more present. Think of a few places you go each week and look to attach a few aimless minutes to the experience.    And Most Importantly… Embrace Missteps Before I sold my previous business back in early 2020, I often set off in unchartered directions with a new revenue idea. In one particular instance, an idea sent me down an exciting but very expensive road. The concept never panned out and it ended up costing far more money that I had anticipated. I learned a lot from the experience but it started to sow seeds of self-doubt, causing me to shy away from my entrepreneurial inspirations.   What I now see is that life gives us countless opportunities to stretch beyond our own boundaries. New ventures, relationships, even a new hairstyle, gently push us outside of our comfort zones toward our growth and learning zones. Whether things turn out as we hoped is beside the point; the real gold is who we become when we stretch ourselves.   Our missteps and blunders are simply fodder for our development, not evidence that we're failures. When we embrace the results of our efforts, even when we'd wish those results to be different, we're able to see how our experiences can shape us for the better, not hold us back.    What could you try today? Find one thing and then give yourself permission to dabble, play and flaneur. And remember, you can always change your mind.

Do you know how important it is to play?  I learned from Brene Brown several years ago in her book “The Gifts of Imperfection” that engaging in play is so important to living a whole-hearted and fulfilled life… It was then that I started to engage in it more (and I've noticed the benefits when I do it)!  In this episode, I share with you, the top five benefits based on an article in “Help Guide”.  Learning all of this has inspired to build even more play into my every day! I hope it does for you, too!  If you're interested in taking part in my form of play: monthly scavenger hunts with beautiful patrons of the Patreon community: https://www.projectwonderfull.com/patreon  You'll not only have access to these scavenger hunts (and other benefits), but also support the production of this podcast as well as help illuminate the beautiful people and wonder of the world! And for that, I am very grateful.  Also to note, the work of the work of researcher Stuart Brown, MD and author of “Play: How it Shapes the Brain, Opens the Imagination, and Invigorates the Soul” is often cited in this episode.

Welcome to Episode 32 of The Darlington Podcast!  In this episode, host Stefan Eady, assistant head of school for academic resources, talks with Pre-K to 8 Director Hope Jones about the power of play and, specifically, why play is critical to a child's development and learning process. In fact, when Darlington overhauled its daily schedule several years ago, this idea of creating more time for inquiry, exploration and ownership of learning was at the center of the process, and Hope shares why strategically balancing both structured and unstructured play creates a healthy environment for learning.  In the podcast, Hope mentions two of her favorite books on this topic: https://www.amazon.com/Play-Shapes-Brain-Imagination-Invigorates/dp/1583333789 ("Play: How it Shapes the Brain, Opens the Imagination, and Invigorates the Soul" by Dr. Stuart Brown) We've all seen the happiness on the face of a child while playing in the school yard. Or the blissful abandon of a golden retriever racing across a lawn. This is the joy of play. By definition, play is purposeless, all-consuming, and fun. But as Dr. Stuart Brown illustrates, play is anything but trivial. It is a biological drive as integral to our health as sleep or nutrition. We are designed by nature to flourish through play. A fascinating blend of cutting-edge neuroscience, biology, psychology, social science, and inspiring human stories of the transformative power of play, this book proves why play just might be the most important work we can ever do. https://www.amazon.com/Power-Play-Spontaneous-Imaginative-Activities/dp/0738210536 ("The Power of Play: How Spontaneous, Imaginative Activities Lead to Happier, Healthier Children" by Dr. David Elkind) In modern childhood, free, unstructured play time is being replaced more and more by academics, lessons, competitive sports, and passive, electronic entertainment. While parents may worry that their children will be at a disadvantage if they are not engaged in constant, explicit learning or using the latest "educational" games, David Elkind's "The Power of Play" reassures us that unscheduled imaginative play goes far in preparing children for academic and social success. Through expert analysis of the research and powerful situational examples, Elkind shows that, indeed, creative spontaneous activity best sets the stage for academic learning in the first place. https://www.darlingtonschool.org/Today/Details/5745565 (Click here for complete show notes >>)
