Episode 53 Criticism, Judgement and Receiving

Have you had a hard day? Well, you've come to the right place! Welcome to A Creator-based Life, the weekly podcast for CMH Coaching. We empower women of faith to create the lives they love- the lives they’ve always wanted. I’m here with Jaycine Bonnett, a business coach, Mom, Grandma, and avid runner, and Jennifer Dereus, a coach, a can-grow-anything gardener, and a hypnotherapist. And I’m Beth, a Master Life Coach, author, and creator of The Creator-based Way: Create Your One, Awesome, Amazing, Perfect Life. This month’s theme is Blessed, and we are considering how to receive the blessings that are already out there in abundance for us already.  It’s harvest season, but one must go pick the garden produce in order to receive it.  Today, we are considering two of the blocks for receiving the good that’s out there in the world, judgment and conflict In The Gifts of Imperfection, Brené Brown wrote, “Until we can receive with an open heart, we are never really giving with an open heart. When we attach judgment to receiving help, we knowingly or unknowingly attach judgment to giving help.” Did something go wrong for you today?  It’s a Monday… 1. When something goes wrong in your life, what happens to your day? Persecuted Victim: Choosing to continue the story and escalate Challenged Creator: Choosing to create a more authentic story:   clarity and focus  Judgment is the root of conflict.   2. Pretend that we’ve gone to Anthropology and are trying on clothes. The sales clerk was adorable and helpful vs  not helpful and kinda snotty Clothes in my size- clothes not in my size Clothes on sale - clothes really pricey  3. Let’s try on some Ideas the same way. What experiences have you had about conflict, and how did they work out?   4. Does conflict impact receiving?  5. Consider the use of Thought Alchemy* to convert conflict to open receiving: 6. This is alchemy in the form of a transformation process or algorithm, like the ancient process of trying to convert different chemicals to gold- no voodoo or black magic here! 7. ALCHEMY! A New thought to try on- and it’s a very flattering style and your favorite color!  Judge less, Love more.  The alchemy of loving thoughts on current conflict is powerful. “What if who you are is exactly who you’re supposed to be? What if you’re just right right now?” “Nothing has gone wrong here.  You are precisely where you are supposed to be.” “Until we can receive with an open heart, we are never really giving with an open heart. When we attach judgment to receiving help, we knowingly or unknowingly attach judgment to giving help.” Judge less, Love more.  The alchemy of loving thoughts on current conflict is powerful.
