Finding Your Good By - Finding Who You Are

Do you know who you are?Moana’s grandmother asked her this question, and I ask it of you now. Using the beautiful music from Disney’s Moana, we get to know our inner wisdom even better. Traditions have sometimes “stolen” or at least “hidden” the heart that’s inside us.And when we can’t hear that inner voice, we also miss hearing our authentic call - our call for us but also our call for touching other. Getting to know the language of our heart allows us to clearly identify the simple steps we can take to impact our world for good. Do You Know Who You Are?

Finding Your Good By - Finding Your Voice

We all have an inner wisdom, an inner voice. It’s what I call our true, authentic self. But most of us have buried deep inside of us and forgotten how to speak it’s language. Today we begin to get in touch with this inner wisdom, though years of pushing it aside won’t be undone in a day. We start with a meditation that will help us locate that voice. Then leaning on it a little, we begin to use that inner wisdom to understand the harmony of our own personal wheel of wellness – harmony between your physical, mental, emotional, and social wellbeing. Once we start to see what that harmony might be for you we can use small, intentional steps to accomplish it. And a quick reminder, none of us are perfect, most especially myself. Have fun picking up on my super deep thought about what it means to grant yourself value! Enjoy a laugh on me!

Finding Your Good By - Being Kind To Yourself (inner criticism vs inner compassion)

We are often our own worst critic. We often tend to judge ourself and cut ourself down more than others do to us. This isn't healthy for us nor for those around us. In this week's episode of The Good She Carries we use the analogy of a sheep herder and a shepherd to understand why our inner sheep might prefer the shepherd. Use this worksheet as you go through the episode to help you answer questions about your inner critic and your inner compassion.

Finding Your Good By - Just Being Kind

Ever wonder why it feels so good to be seen? Or why it feels so good when you make sure someone else is seen? Believe it or not, kindness is actually an abundant commodity in the world today. Unfortunately, there can never be enough of it and we certainly could use more of it these days. I recently dug into the science of why kindness feels so good and found some amazing things that I share in this week's episode. Most especially, studies that PROVE it's more powerful than we believe. I also encourage you in this week's butterfly step to take a step towards adding a little more kindness into the world.
