Episode 299: Showing Up for Yourself

Episode 298: Happy NOW Year
Recently I've been reminded that as much as our brains believe they can control and predict what's going to happen, they can't. Life is impermanent and there is plenty that we can neither predict nor control. What we do control is our choices in the present. What we do have is the moment right…

Episode 297: Feeling Hesitant
We're just a couple of weeks into a brand new year and I've noticed myself feeling hesitant—hesitant to decide and declare my goals, hesitant to finalize plans and decisions and intentions, just hesitant to start. If you've been feeling hesitant when you think you should be feeling motivated and...

Episode 296: Welcome to the Starting Line
Welcome to a brand new year! Here at the starting line of the new year, it can be tempting to want to change some (or all) of the things we're doing, but don't forget that every action begins as a thought. That means that the most important changes you can make in your life are the things you...

Episode 291: Receiving
Recently I was reading a book by Julia Cameron who wrote, "The universe is prodigal in its support. We are miserly in what we accept." Most of us are uncomfortable receiving and there's a good reason for this. Psychologically, it feels better for us humans to feel like we are giving more than we...

Episode 287: Haunted by Your Mistakes
Making mistakes is a big part of our human experience but none of us enjoy it very much. And while making mistakes isn't fun and we never want to hurt ourselves and others, our brains as especially intolerant of our mistakes and can sometimes use them against us for years after we make them,...
-
Episode 286: Be a Little Braver
It is a brave thing to be a human. Mostly because, as long as we are alive, we are each under the constant scrutiny and criticism of our own brains. And no matter what we do, it seems like we're never good enough to quiet its relentless disparagement. Recently I have had a few experiences that...
-
Episode 285: Present Over Perfect

Episode 283: Witness, Cheer, and Comfort with David Price

Episode 270: Freedom from the Tyranny of Your Brain
We spend all of our time inside our own heads, but have you ever noticed how it's often more like a prison than a playground in there? Our brains can be tyrants. And if we leave the thoughts it gives us unquestioned or unsupervised, they will keep us stuck and tortured and oppressed. On today's...
