We all experience the so-called “negative” emotions such as Sadness, Anger, and Fear throughout our lives as a result of experiencing unpleasant circumstances or even traumatic events. It’s OK to feel these, and it’s important to express them in healthy ways. It’s when we avoid feeling them and resist expressing them that we develop Emotional Constipation, and the shitty feelings begin to pile up and block our ability to fully enjoy life. Sadness untreated slips into Depression. Anger left untended turns into Rage. Fear left to fester turns into Phobia, and can further devolve into Hate. The path back to…

Your mantra for today is a powerful mindset shift that guides you from a place of dark loneliness into abundant light.

Even on your most challenging days, you deserve to feel happy, even if only for a moment. Cultivate happiness in your life by doing something each day that makes you smile, so that on the hard days you have plenty to pull from. Recall a fond memory. Engage your senses. Dance like a total weirdo. Laugh at a terrible joke. Play with your pets/kids/best friends. Whatever makes you feel really happy, allow yourself to experience that feeling every single day. Mantra: Every day, I do at least one thing that makes me feel happy.

Today, I invite you to shift your mindset to one that more readily welcomes abundance. This powerful mantra starts with a fun visualization practice: Begin to picture yourself on a golden path laid out before you. Surround your path with rich, vivid colors: flowers and trees, a lovely stream, beautiful birds singing, gorgeous rainbows in the sky. Engage all of your senses. Notice, there are no blocks or barriers along this path, it is simply open before you. Now feel a sense of peace & ease as you move along your path. Mantra: I welcome a life of abundance!

“I set healthy boundaries for myself.” You get to decide what is acceptable behavior and what is not. You choose what supports your best health and what doesn’t. You define and create the rules for living a life that you love, and that framework is what builds the healthy boundaries that suit you best. Honor them in yourself to live a more peaceful life.

Today I had the honor and pleasure of interviewing my cousin, Nicole Lewis-Keeber, for a new podcast that we are co-hosting (more on that later). One of my very favorite things about her is her willingness to go deep and be transparent on any topic, even ones that are messy or difficult to talk about. It takes incredible courage to show up and be honest with yourself in the difficult conversations. Self-awareness can be messy, but I’m learning that it’s in our willingness to go there that we can truly heal ourselves and create powerful new possibilities for our lives. …
