Day 427 || building self knowledge Apr 16, 2022

Show notes

Do your beliefs, thoughts, actions, decisions align with your internal favorite version of yourself?

The more you practice internally evaluating the things that make you feel the best and most aligned - the less you'll have to over-analyze and critique your external presentation to ensure it's aligning with your best self, internally.

Day 426 || internal self awareness Apr 15, 2022

Show notes

The key to building self awareness (that doesn't ebb into self-consciousness) is being aware internally of the things that align with you and your favorite version of yourself. Trust that your external will naturally begin to match the internal as you begin to get clear about the things that make you feel the most whole and well-rounded.

Day 424 || how to be *less* self aware Apr 13, 2022

Show notes

Day one of a self awareness series in which I share strategies and techniques to become LESS self-aware about the stuff that removes you from your ability to stay present and mindful and MORE self-aware about the things that truly matter.

Internal self-awareness is far more powerful than external self-awareness.

Day 423 || how to listen well Apr 12, 2022

Show notes

People generally just want to feel heard and being a good listener is a huge part of that.

Practice waiting to respond, silence allows space for people to continue. Practice making eye contact + repeating what they've just said back to them in their own words. And practice really being there while they create their own conclusions.

Day 422 || how to change the subject Apr 11, 2022

Show notes

Sometimes it can be the right move to just change the subject. Whether to diffuse, or just escape an awkward situation - learning how to change the subject can help others get out of toxic cycles too.

Whether discreet or obvious - don't be afraid to change the subject if things are starting to spiral out of control.

Day 421 || how to stop ruminating II Apr 11, 2022

Show notes

The more we remind ourselves that we don’t need to be positive all the time, we will realize there is also no need to be negative either - but by relaxing and redirecting to my breath I can remind myself that there’s nothing I can do NOW and the best possible thing I can do - for my own well being - is to drop it. To let it go. To move on. And allow myself some space between me and the perpetual thought.

Day 420 || how to stop ruminating Apr 10, 2022

Show notes

If you’re finding yourself dwelling and turning the same concern over and over and over and over, you’re ruminating. And even though it’s incredibly common, it’s also terrible for your mental health.

Although the reflection portion of rumination can often be fairly beneficial in finding a solution or process the strong emotions that are associated with the situation, rumination in general is often less proactive and only perpetuates a negative mood surrounding it. Plus, when most people ruminate it’s not with the intention to reflect and grow, so it ends up making us feel more helpless and stressed about the situation occurring in the future.

It’s linked to depression and anxiety and is not only a symptom but a cause - so it often becomes a self fulfilling and compounding cycle of toxic thinking.

Rumination can make you feel isolated, and can in turn push others away, which becomes a self-fulfilling negativity. It’s also a way to prolong + intensify depression, plus when you’re ruminating on something - you’re not present in the now. You can’t think clearly about next steps if you’re dwelling on past problems.
