This week we're discussing all things happiness and I give you some insight into how I approach the world in a way that keeps my joy long-lasting and sustainable. I also offer some alternatives to the idea that we can even "be happy" and that it is something to achieve. This podcast offers musings on our inner psyche and body so hopefully they serve as a source that questions your perspective and opens your mind. Practice happiness and see you next week.

09 Seek Your Own Experience. Creating a Multi-Dimensional Perspective.

I'm back! I get a little bit rambly in this episode, but I wanted to speak about the importance of forming your own belief system and exploring multiple perspectives. This feels especially relevant during the wake of the Black Lives Matter protests happening internationally right now so I use a lot of this situation in my examples. However, the point of the podcast is to get people to question beliefs they hold in all arenas of life and to begin a long term journey of self-reflection. To me Black Lives Mattering is a fact not a belief, but as we've seen from the opposition some people do not believe in this statement. I think the root of so much of this conflict is an attachment to unquestioned beliefs. The lives of innocent human beings should not have to be up for debate so there is clearly some disconnect. My words about the movement are in no way better or more informed than other people out there and so even in this case you should be seeking other perspectives.  I just wanted to share my insight and hopefully encourage people to be more critical thinkers throughout the rest of their lives.

Welcome back! This week we're talking stress. I have been feeling very overwhelmed lately and I know I'm not alone in that. Stress and overwhelm are  major barriers to accomplishing our goals, but do we actually kind of crave it...? Too many people are in fight or flight too often and this amount of stress can be addictive when exposed so often. Just like adrenaline junkies America has turned into a nation of cortisol junkies due to its over prioritization of work. So how can we deal with our stress and overwhelm and ween ourselves off this hormone? I discuss all the methods I've found in this weeks episode and share my own experiences. If you take away anything remember that right now you are always alright. x
