For The Best of Your Life
One of our greatest gifts as reasoning and critical thinking human beings is that of choice. Even when we can’t change our circumstances, we can choose our responses to them. We were created for a purpose. Our choices determine whether we navigate our purpose-driven life, or become a passenger to it. We have the power to bolster our wellbeing, or not; enhance our health and fitness, or not; and grow what’s good in our lives to greatness, or not. Why would you “not” when you can choose otherwise? What are you doing for the best of your life?
Sense Abilities
It’s easy to know what our senses like and don’t like. Every time we make a preference, whether it’s a color choice or a favorite type of food, we are acknowledging characteristics of our authentic being through our senses. Add a healthy dose of mindfulness to give meaning to these preferences and your senses’ abilities are heightened. These channels into our beings are powerful information carriers.
Hugs for Life
During a pandemic, let’s dig deeper to better communicate our love and support in this touch-free society. In the meantime, I’ve been inspired by prehistoric creatures and premature twins to do all I can to keep the life-saving hug from extinction.
Curiosity - Strength Training for your Mind
The mind is purposed for discovery, ideas, and vetting all of the “what ifs” we propose. Matters of the brain autonomously keep us alive and are focused on maintaining our comfort and safety. Curiosity fuels our minds. It’s the quality that can open and expand the gray matter of the brain so we can “think outside the box” - minding our matters beyond the brain’s confined parameters.
I often tell my students the brain is just an organ. It’s an important one for sure, but the brain is the only organ our minds can have exceptional influence over, thereby, changing the quality of our lives.
