The Missing Skill for a Peaceful Life — How to Stay Calm When People Are Being Super Jerks

We all know that expression, "One day I'll look back on this and laugh." Usually, it takes a few years. But is there a way to speed up that process? Is there a way to laugh and enjoy each moment as if we were looking back on it years from now? The key to why we can look back and laugh as something difficult is distance. Emotional, physical, and chronological distance. Distance gives us a feeling of safety, clarity, perspective.  In this podcast, I share how we can all create instant distance so that life's unwanted surprises don't seem so significant. With distance, big events become small and manageable. Here is how to develop the most important skill for a peaceful life.

When the People We Lean on Can’t Be There Forever

There is a stage of adulthood that no one talks about and no one prepares us for. It is the hardest stage to grow into. It is the stage we fear and try to avoid our whole life. But it's coming for all of us. No, it's not the mid-life crisis. It's the stage of becoming an elder. It doesn't mean we've turned 80. It means we no longer have an elder we can turn to for sage advice, and we have to step into that role ourself. It can happen when we're very young or very old, but there eventually comes a time, if we live long enough, when we become the one everyone leans on for support. In this podcast, I share 3 simple steps for how to step into this hard new role. I talk about how to face loneliness and being alone, old age and aging, and tapping into our inner strength and power. I discuss why it's painful, how to overcome it, and how to become the shining light of wisdom for ourself and others that we're all destined to be. ***** If my words have ever touched your heart or helped you through a hard moment, I’d be deeply grateful for your support in keeping this podcast alive.

Is Your Mind Playing These 4 Tricks on You? How to Take Back Control of Your Mind

Our bodies respond to the thoughts in our head. We make choices because of our thoughts. And if we have a scary thought, we feel fear. If our thoughts are angry in nature, we feel anger. If we have worrying thoughts, we feel stressed and anxious. If they are positive, we feel good and happy. We think reality effects our thoughts, but it is our thoughts that create our reality. Most of us simply have an untrained mind. Our mind is our master. The ego runs the show. In this podcast, I talk about how our higher self can take back the reins of our mind. I discuss how our egos took control in the first place and the sneaky tricks it uses to hold on to power. And I share some simple solutions for taming the mind so that it becomes our loyal, helpful companion instead of our moody, needy, and impulsive boss.
