How to follow your heart versus your mindSupport the show

In this episode we share our experience about listening to our souls truth versus seeking approval from others. The distinct difference between Approval vs our souls truth - if we are seeking approval,  we look outward and listen to the voices in our heads. However, when we are listening and living our souls truth, we look inward and listen to the silence within.Support the show

In this episode Lisa shares how she was able to overcome a 25 year addiction. Her addiction started with a childhood injury and it progressed when she became sick with crohn's disease. Even after she was no longer suffering pain from her disease, her addiction continued to haunt her for most of her adult life. Now almost 10 years later Lisa is addiction free and is celebrating being 10 years empowered. She is the most incredible person I have ever met and I'm so honoured to walk my path along side her.Support the show

Here is episode 4 of Let's Get REAL Podcast.  It is about the Shift in consciousness Lisa and I have experienced in the last while and the change that we have heard that others are going through.We talk about feeling a lack of motivation and a decline in interest in all the activities we used to enjoy. We have noticed in ourselves and others that friendships have recently fallen away, resulting in feeling uncomfortable letting people go. We might suddenly find ourselves not wanting to spend time with a friend or family member we used to get along with. In this experience, it doesn’t make the other a bad person. It’s just that with our change in consciousness, we have lost the common ground we once shared.Support the show

This episode discusses resistance and how it blocks us from moving forward. When we move into resistance, we only attract more of what we don’t want, we miss the opportunity to hold our focus on what is purposeful to our lives. Everything that comes into our lives is a creation that we have drawn to us. If we are surrounded by creations that we are resisting, it’s time to evaluate what we have been holding our focus on versus pushing against what is coming to us. And if we continue to maintain focus on what we want, eventually, we move into an experience that we no longer want or need to resist.Support the show

This week's podcast topic is "Is time speeding up?" It seems to be a thing with everyone that I speak with. But is time speeding up? That is a great question to ponder. Science and psychology don't seem to have figured out what is causing this phenomenon quite yet. I feel the answer lies in understanding consciousness. The world has certainly had a shift in consciousness, and with that shift comes many changes that we are yet to understand fully. However, with consciousness on the rise, we can manifest our reality faster. When we have an idea, thought or strong feelings, they will show up much quicker today than we have ever experienced. We hope you enjoy this episode and would love to hear your thoughts on this topic.Support the show

Most of us wouldn’t either believe this statistic or realize that our minds are constantly being bombarded with thoughts to that degree. To add to this, a majority of them are negative. In this session, we explore the mind’s tendencies, how to better manage and use our minds, and why it is so important to just be cognizant of the realities of what is going on with our mind day to day.Tools for Session 1Take inventory of your thoughts. Start documenting all the different thoughts you have.Once you have worked at this for a few days, look at what you have written and identify which thoughts are untrue, unreal, or not yours. Notice what thoughts you get caught up in. This is a great exercise for you to get to know what’s happening in your mind. 3. Just watch your thoughts. Try this out for an hour or even a day. When you notice that you have started to think about the thoughts in your head, just gently return to watching your thoughts as if they are a movie. When I refer to “watching your thoughts,” I mean you don’t get to talk to them or even silently think about them either.Pretend that your mind is a movie screen. Everything you see and hear is being projected on you like a movie. As in the above lesson, just watch the movie, but this time, include everything happening around you.Pay attention to how your mind pre-determines outcomes before they happen. This happens a lot in situations that you are most familiar with, like at work and with family. When you notice that you are doing this, be willing to stop and return to the moment. Keep working at stopping yourself from leaving what is happening in front of you. When your mind starts to pre-determine an outcome, you have left the presence of this moment.Do you have things that make you angry or frustrate you on a regular basis? If so, practice removing your expectations and see if this changes your experience.Take some time and make a list of the things you think might be out of date in your beliefs and thoughts.Support the show

It can be easy to become swooped up by the temptations that life present us. With all of the luxuries in the world that are being thrown in our face, it can be easy to fall victim to desires. We can also believe that happiness exists in the things we want, but sadly it is only a matter of time before our minds come up with the next thing to chase. If we have peace within, we no longer require temporary relief through the acquisition of thing after thing after thing.Tools for Session 2Make a list of your desires. Once you have your list, ask yourself: “Are these desires healthy for me?”Once you have your list of desires, can you identify a deeper desire that you are unconsciously trying to achieve?What are your habits? Do your habits serve you, or are you serving your habits?Where are you repeating patterns in your life? Do you attract scenarios where your payoffs get you a similar reward?Can you identify any areas in which you are fulfilling the desire of another or societal expectation?Do you have any unresolved conflicts within you? Do your unresolved conflicts manifest undesirable results in your life?Do you have secret desires in your relationship? What things do you expect your partner to just know about you, and have they ever caused an argument? Once you identify a secret desire, share your needs more openly with your partner.Practice dropping into your heart. It can be a very simple process. Just close your eyes and feel your heart expand and contract while you breathe slowly in and out. If your mind starts to talk to you, just ignore it and listen for the solitude of your heart.Can you think of any of your heart’s desires? I encourage you to make a list of them and start to work toward completing your list.Check out more content on http://www.umatter.caSupport the show

What lies beyond our fears? What happens when we pour devotion into our life? How do we become empowered? These are some questions that are answered in this session. This particular session contains some incredible wisdom to help us live beyond our fears and find ourselves in a far more empowered state.Tools for Session 3Write down some goals that you would like to achieve. 2. I would like to challenge you to pour devotion into your life. Be creative here. For example: Pour your devotion into saying hi to everyone you meet and address everyone by looking them in the eyes. Another way would be to devote yourself to your work, friends, and family or to any task you are doing. As you do this lesson, allow the presence of your devotion to fill you up with what you are devoting yourself to.Spend an entire day devoted to what is under your nose. If someone calls for your attention, give them 100 per cent of your focus. The ability to do that would greatly enhance the quality of your relationships with your partner or your children, friends, and co-workers.Think of a difficult situation in your life. Now look beyond the struggles, loss, or even anger you may have had and ask yourself: What did I learn from that? How did this experience cause me to grow? How has my life changed for the better? Write down your answers. Perhaps you will find you didn’t learn anything, but maybe, in time, with a different perspective, your answers to these questions will offer insight.Make a list of all the things that cause you to feel vulnerability. Once you have your list, start an action plan on how you are going to walk through your vulnerabilities. Note: Vulnerabilities are closely related to your fears. You can include fears in this list.What disempowers you? Disempowerment is anything that makes you feel weak, causes you to fight, flight, or freeze. Include the triggers that cause you to be sad or angry. This is a big question worth spending some time on. After you have your list, ask yourself what the possible solution is for you.Make a list of the changes you want to implement in your life. What needs to change? What are you not willing to change and why? In your response, be sure to look at your answers very closely. Look at it as if it were someone else’s issue that needed to change. How would you advise them to deal with your problem? If you answer is based in fear, or thoughts that are not true, real, or yours, you may want to reevaluate why you’re not willing to make the change.Practice the Three Step Healing exercise in this chapter.What is holding me back from following my heart? Have I curbed what I want to do by conforming to what others want or expect from me?Check out more content on http://www.umatter.caSupport the show

Sometimes it can feel nearly impossible to choose love when we are put in a challenging position. But what would happen if you chose love more than not? You may be surprised how choosing love will radiate the earth around you. This is a particularly powerful session that will leave you feeling energized.Tools for Session 4Spend a day choosing love. If someone speaks to you, respond with love. Everything you do, hold the intention of love while you do it.Take some time to review where you need to bring more love into your life. Are there any places you need to insert more love for yourself or others?Are you kind to yourself? This includes how you talk to yourself in your mind. If not, practice letting go of any dialogue that is unkind.Make a list of all the reasons why you would terminate a relationship with a friend or partner. Take some time to review why you feel the way you do. Are there any wounds that you need to heal from the past?Do your fears trap you or cause you to hold back your love in fear of getting hurt? If so, take whatever steps you can to let go of your fear. Bring logic around your fears and insert love wherever you can.Do you worry about things that are not happening in the moment? When you notice that you’re doing this, be willing to set down your worries.Practice doing the meditation exercise on love. Think about a time when you were loved or when you loved a person, place, or thing. Call up that memory and feel it. Once you can feel it, now just rest in it. If other thoughts arise, just let them float away and rest in the feeling of love. It can also be helpful to slow down your breathing and hold your attention on your heart.For a day, practice holding everyone you see in love. Try to see yourself in others. Find similarities in everyone you meet.For more content got to http://www.umatter.caSupport the show
