The Importance Of Agency | Ep 280
Agency is your belief in your ability to influence your life.
Effort + Time = Results.
I’ve been reflecting on this a lot lately, as I’m in the midst of some major life changes. I recently received my Graduate Diploma of Counselling and I am updating my website, books, and offerings to reflect this next chapter. I’m also continuing to show up each day, facilitating daily guided meditations on Insight Timer and working to expand my reach and impact.
On the personal front, I’m training Jiu Jitsu more than ever, confronting the excuses that once held me back from competing, and proving to myself that growth comes from action, not intention.
Positive change rarely happens overnight. It takes, consistent actions repeated daily. The key is believing that your actions matter and then acting accordingly.
I encourage you to believe in your ability to create positive change in your own life, and then to ACT!
In this session, I also introduce 'The Flame & The Void' meditation from Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series. You can listen to a guided version here, with separate recordings available for both adults and children.
The Body Keeps The Score | Ep 279
This episode begins with a reading of the poem ‘a broken mirror’s gaze’.
From there we discus how the body keeps the score; life will cause us to suffer. If we do not process these trauma’s (because we don’t know how or it isn’t possible) we hold onto it. We hold onto it in the form of chronic pain, illness, injury, and distorted thinking patterns.
There is a way to release. Writing therapy. Intuitive Guidance. Talk Therapies. Along with countless more processors.
In this episode I share a bit of what I am processing, and offer you some guidance on how to release and reintegrate.
The three steps mentioned: Awareness. Acceptance. Action.
