Real Answers with Dr. Kate Siner

One key to being more empowered in our life is self-acceptance—truly embracing all of ourselves, both the good and the not-so-good. When we embrace all of who we are, when we're willing to move into a place of true acceptance, it eliminates a lot of confusion. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Our self-care is more about how we are able to take care of ourselves in each and every moment- this includes all of our behaviors, thoughts, and emotional experiences. Each and every act in our life either cares for us and supports us, or it does not. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Both self-care and pleasure begin with self-love. As we love ourselves more and more, it creates the conditions for pleasure, for our continued well-being, and for us to really care for ourselves. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

To work with the shadow, it is helpful to notice when it is most active. And sometimes this is a process that takes patient observation. However, there are certain signs that can help you identify when your shadow is in control. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

One of the trickier pieces of working with ourselves and the realm of personal and spiritual development is working with our shadow, which comprises all of the elements of us that we are unable to see. As we become better and better at shining light onto our shadow, we are able to shift and transform situations, not because the situations themselves change, but because our perceptions of those situations change—radically. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

One of the simplest ways to make really radical and fast changes in our life is to be intentional. Specifically, we should set an intention each and every day for how we want that day to go, what we’re going to focus on, what ultimate result we’re looking for, or how we want to feel. Setting such intentions is the difference between an undirected, unconscious day and having focus for our energy and a frame through which we can become more conscious. Hosted on Acast.

Intention is the tool that takes us from the way things have been—the way we have been operating—to where it is that we want to go. Within our intention is the understanding that something else is possible, whether this is a change in direction entirely or a more continuous experience than we have experienced in the past.  Hosted on Acast.

A lot of times when people think about being happier in their life, they think about “having something”—having a sense of purpose, having the right relationship, having some quality of life that’s going to result in them feeling happier. In reality, having these things doesn’t always equal feeling happy. What does make us happier is incorporating the experience of pleasure into our day-to-day, moment-to-moment life. Hosted on Acast.

Life is continually showing you how to raise your awareness, but do you see it’s instructions? From my perspective, each and every moment of life is offering us an opportunity to become more aware. We are in a constant state of choice, in all of these moments, to either expand or contract. Expansion brings a richer experience of love, truth, gratitude, forgiveness, and service. Contraction brings limitation. The payoff of learning how to raise your awareness, even if it’s just in a few of these life moments, is exceptional. Join Dr. Kate on Real Answers this week for a discussion of how raising awareness can bring you great freedom in your life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Most of us are aware that being intentional has many benefits for our life, but did you know that the key to really getting results is intention without attachment? Intention without attachment means creating and holding an intention without becoming attached to a specific manifestation of the outcome of that intention. When we become attached to an outcome looking, or being, a certain way, we activate our fears related to having or not having it. This fear then shows up as a block in our path or draws negativity to it. This week on Real Answers, Dr. Kate explains how practicing intention without attachment can help you create a happier life.

We often strive to create healthy and satisfying relationships. But, sometimes, despite how much we may try, we’re unable to create relationships that are mutually supportive and fulfilling.

Our personal power is the key to our wellbeing and personal effectiveness. Personal power is the empowerment of the true self that exists in all of us. It provides us with strength, courage, and compassion throughout all life’s ups and downs.

There are times in our lives when, for one reason or another, the spiritual aspect of our experience moves to the side-line. For some of us, learning how to nurture spiritual development was never a part of our lives at all, and this shift may go unnoticed. For others, the shift may be a wide and gaping rift in our lives. Reconnecting with your spiritual self begins with learning how to nurture spiritual development. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Understanding why personal power is important to your spiritual development begins with understanding that personal development and spiritual development are interdependent, mutualistic processes. The idea that each of these processes is separate and strictly secular/spiritual is a misconception that will prevent us from truly claiming our personal power. 04/30/17 Hosted on Acast.

Whether you lost your job or went through a breakup, some life changes can cut to the core of who you are. You could be left unsure how you feel about yourself, unsure who you are, and seriously struggling to carry on with life as usual. When you're going through these types of foundation-shaking changes, it is incredibly important to take action that affirms who you are and allows you to regain your personal power. This week on Real Answers Dr. Kate discusses how you can stay on track, pick yourself up, and move on with your life after challenges. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

When we get hit with a challenging life event, it pushes us, boldly and forcefully, to change. But what about the rest of the time, when nothing is horribly or chaotically wrong? Without the big signposts of high-impact life events, how do we know when we need to make changes in our lives, and how to we start to actually take action? This week on Real Answers, Dr. Kate identifies some of the ways you can tell that things just aren't working for you anymore. The first step toward changing your life is knowing when it needs to be changed. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It is unlikely that you, or anyone you know, actually live in a constant state of extreme bliss (I mean, really, can you imagine? You wouldn’t even know you were happy anymore!). It is unlikely, even, that you are constantly satisfied with all aspects of your life. Life is continually changing, and happiness can be a surprisingly fickle thing. Being attuned to the parts of your life that are shifting outside your satisfaction, and making sure to take care of those parts, is what prevents you from an emotional shutdown and unhappiness. This week on Real Answers, Dr. Kate discusses how you can learn to make your joy and energy resilient to the drain of life’s changes by practicing the skill of happiness. Hosted on Acast.

Establishing a true practice of happiness is an elusive but powerful skill. In its own right, it is a hard goal to achieve.

This week on Real Answers, Dr. Kate identifies some of the big myths about happiness and helps you leave them behind as you step towards true happiness and fulfillment. Hosted on Acast.

It wasn’t until the 1950's that psychology and psychoanalysis became commonplace ways of thinking about people and their behavior.
