Creating Calm

Calming Your Inner Critic

/ By

I ask you to pause and think about this statement: The weight of responsibility that we place on ourselves and the forgiveness we don’t give. We all fumble at times in our lives. We’ve had words that flew out of our mouths under duress because we’ve exhausted ourselves. We’ve experienced anger, impatience, fear – all big emotions that can overwhelm our sanity – it happens to all of us. Those words/thoughts can be directed toward others as well as us.

One Last Pause Before the New Year

None of us knows what the future holds, and one thing that this past year has brought into even more focus for me is being in the present moment. Where you have power is NOW. Stop speed dialing through your to-do list and pause. Stop replaying what has already taken place and move forward. The wrangling during the night about conversations you wish had gone differently, the chances you didn’t take, the flashback to years ago, none of these are events that can be changed.

Turning Rocky Roads into Smooth Pathways

Think of driving down a road with potholes at 65 mph. You need to get to your destination! But your car is shaking, you’re shaking, suddenly your ability to keep going has gone. We talked about this in our Online Care Circle recently: how easy it is to get caught up in the gotta go mode, and how poor the results can be. 

We have choices. Would you like to show up more effectively? More balanced? Make clear decisions? I encourage you from my place of muddling through to take the opportunity to slow down. You hear the cry of others, pause,  and hear your own cries echoing back. Resist the statement – “I don’t have time.” – and do something that brings balance back into your life.

Feeling Overwhelmed? Pause and B-R-E-A-T-H-E

/ By
pause and breathe

In the mix of overwhelm that can happen in our lives, from the usual to-dos to the unexpected, are you taking time to stop? To B-R-E-A-T-H-E? Be honest with yourself. We all think we can handle a lot, and at times we have to. Try changing up the usual protocol you have done into an energetic shift. Energy is powerful stuff – what you put in you get back multiplied abundantly. Be aware of the negative you send out (or in) because it is likely to produce more.
