What are you thinking right now? What were you thinking an hour ago? Many of us have no clue. Whether we like it or not, our thoughts control us. Our thoughts create our beliefs and our beliefs create our reality. Some of our thoughts serve us and others hold us back. Today’s show is about retraining our thoughts which may positively shift our reality. Tune in and hear some of the ways our thoughts work and how we can shift our thought to create a more positive and loving foundation from which to live. Retrain your thoughts; Recreate your reality.

It is possible to be happy always when we learn where to find it and really understand what happiness is. Today’s discussion is all about knowing what to look for and where to look in order to experience and express authentic happiness. We will cover things we do that move us further away from happiness, how to correct that and what we can do to move back into authentic happiness and well being.

Many of us embrace it; many of us fight it; all of us have to deal with it. What is it? Aging. Aging is something we all have in common and something that actually begins for us the day we are conceived. We all become aware of our aging process at some point in our lives but not always at the same point. Aging is a very personal journey and can feel quite lonely. It is a process that causes fear in some people, regrets in others and dread in others while some people rejoice in it. Some people seem to age well while others struggle with it. As with everything, we can choose how we experience this process. Our guest for this show is my dear friend Jan Lundy. She has created another beautiful Sadhana and this time the theme is “Self Compassionate Aging”. Listen in and discover how you can age compassionately; this will be life changing for you.

We take a look at fear and how imagination drives it to unnecessary places. What we sometimes think is a call for Forget Everything and Run is actually one of the other fear acronyms; False Evidence Appearing Real, Future Events Appearing Real or Face Everything and Rise. Today’s show is about recognizing and stepping through fear. We talk about seeing the illusion and moving beyond it to a place that serves your well being.

Collaboration enhances and empowers all we do and all we experience. No matter how hard we try to do this journey on our own, collaboration is part of the mix. We have a choice to embrace it or fight, either way; our life path is going to be touched by what we choose. Embrace collaboration; expand and empower your life through the motivation and inspiration provided by others, yourself and all of creation.

The tool for today’s show is “Open To Good.” Now, in order to be open to anything new, we must make room for it. We must prepare for that new thing even if it is an emotion. To do that often times requires that we let go of something else. Preferably, we let go of something that does not serve us. Today’s show is all about making room for goodness in your life, choosing good and receiving good. Listen is and learn how you too can choose good no matter what is happening in your life. Learn what stands in the way for most of us and how you can release all that no longer serves you and receive all that does.

We are surrounded by situations, people and things that could lead us into the darkness of life. Living in a negative environment with a depressed attitude; feeling sad and angry all of the time, is possible for each of us. We can easily see darkness as evil and try and run from it. Allow darkness to be a gentle nudge to choose differently. Illuminate your life is about seeing light over the dark. When we focus on the light of life we feel that beautiful shift from fear to love, from anger to happiness. Allow yourself to be transformed by tuning into the light of your authentic self.

A common statement in times of upset, sadness and grief is, “everything happens for a reason.” This is often a comfort only to the person delivering the statement while the receiver finds only deeper darkness. While there is truth to the statement and it is even a tool we teach on the show, timing is everything and this tool is not first. On this show we talk about how to grow through and from the experience first.

Blame is the practice of the day in many cases. In the media, in daily conversations, in relationships and just about anywhere else we look, blame rules. We easily pick up the magnifying glass and focus in on the problems and faults of the people and situations around us. On this episode, we talk about picking up the mirror instead. Listen in and discover for yourself how mirrors can easily and effortlessly assist us in taking realistic responsibility, empowering ourselves to shift our life for the positive and see others in a new light. Put down the magnifying glass and pick up the mirror. Shift your life.

Create your foundation and live your life. With a solid foundation built on tools that serve your core principles and highest good, you can live life without fear. You can step forward and know that no matter what, you are going to be just fine. With the ability to release the fear of what might go wrong you can open yourself to the curiosity and excitement of all that may very well go right. And…when you approach any situation with a “what might go right attitude”, your chances of those wonderful results increase immensely.

Being kind to you is a critical first step to healing. Whether the healing you seek is physical, emotional, mental or spiritual, being kind to you, creating a sacred practice that serves your well being is essential. Jan Lundy is our guest and she is talking about healing through kindness. We will chat about why kindness truly is the best remedy and Jan will share too programs she offers, "The Kindest Thing" and her new Sadhana designed to assist women to heal.

In light of the events happening in our world, the shootings in Orlando as one of the most recent; we are talking about healing. Healing is critical in allowing the other tools we teach a chance to work. Healing clears the path of life. Healing transforms pain, anger, sadness and other negative, dark emotions into positive experiences. Moving from dark to light makes us appreciate the light even more. Moving from sadness to happiness opens an expanded awareness of the happiness. Our tool for the show is just that, “Make Time to Heal.” While the majority of the people listening to this show probably did not even know anyone involved in the Orlando shooting, most of us were touched by it. Most of us shed a tear, grew angry, felt pain or were saddened in some way. Just hearing the news made us feel something that is not at all normal for us. There is a need for healing.

Are you limiting your life experience by living good enough? Today we are talking about moving beyond good enough without judgment or comparison. We have the ability to take extra steps in life that elevate and expand our life experience. We can do it with ease and we can do it where we are right now. Going beyond good enough requires no special training or talent; it is available to us all. Join us as we start a movement to change the world with love and peace. As we move beyond good enough and into the fullest potential of ourselves, we share love and peace, compassion and kindness with the world.

What role does comparison play in your life? Do you compare your life to the life of other’s? Do you compare your stuff to the stuff of others? What role does comparison play in your relationship? Who and what are you comparing your partner too; how about the relationship itself; and how do you compare you? We all do it. Comparison sneaks into life in so many ways and many times we do not even realize we are doing it. Listen in as we talk about comparison; the damage it can do when used and how to keep it from corrupting your life.
