What is mindfulness? In the context of how you show up for orhers, consider not making assumptions, or judgement about anyone’s life. I told AI my life story. Everything! I wanted to get some guidance on how to share my REAL story, which is full of trigger warnings. AI removed my story and said the content violated usage policies. 😳 How can you all handle it, when AI couldn’t? It’s funny how we can go through so much trauma and then attach so much shame to it. It’s truly like adding insult to injury. I mean, I don’t have the type of trauma that people share…losing loved ones through illness and disease etc. I like to call my trauma invisible trauma… The kinda trauma that no one sees, so no one thinks to check in with you to make sure that you’re ok, like you do for them when they’re sick, or suffered some type of loss. So yes…. I look strong because I AM strong. I CHOSE to go on the Hero’s Journey.. The Hero’s journey that I cannot share… You’re just going to have to trust me when I say, that no matter what you are going through, NO…MATTER…WHAT, you CAN live your best life. Let’s do this! 👇 www.bravezone.ca By the way, you don’t know anyone’s story. Treat people right. We ALL deserve to have our cups runneth over. 🥰

My Mind-Body Lifeline I start each morning now with 20 minutes of somatic exercises - and it's become my lifeline for wellbeing. Somatic practices involve bringing present moment awareness to the body through breath, mindfulness, gentle stretching or touch. This mind-body reunion has been transformative. By tuning into physical sensations, I uncover areas of chronic tension to address with compassion. Tight hips reveal where I may be feeling stuck; clenching in my jaw taps into underlying frustrations seeking an outlet. Simple movements like shoulder rolls or neck stretches with measured breath help unlock areas of armouring, releasing the energy blocks which needs to flow again. A handy foam roller becomes a massage therapist for my knotted muscles! Over time, this daily ritual has allowed me to discharge stress, improve mobility, quiet my anxiety. I feel more at home and trusting of my body's innate wisdom. Intuition comes through clearer when I clear the noise of busy thoughts. No need for drastic endeavours - consistency with these gentle practices is key. By dedicating just 20 minutes each morning, I nourish my mind, body and spirit in ways that ripple through the whole day. I share my favourite somatic exercises in my Emotional Regulation Collective - click the link in my bio to join me in this journey of self-care! I hope these reflections inspire you to try somatic movements too. Start with just 5 minutes of deep breathing or stretching while noticing sensations. when you start to uncover your own inner wisdom & guidance, and let down the barriers of tension Your body knows the way. #somaticpractices #somaticmovements #somatichealing #somaticexercises #somatictherapy #somaticmeditation #somaticbreathwork #somaticbodywork #somaticrelease #somaticwellness #mindbodyconnection #innerwisdom #intuition #selfcare #emotionalregulation #vagusnervestimulation #traumarelease #nervoussystemregulation #mindfulness #meditation

From “inner peace” to “dinner please,” Dragon Warrior Po certainly understands how hard it can be to meditate. Do you? In a world teeming with promises of wellness through meditation, Carly Newberg offers a refreshingly candid exploration of the emotional turbulence often encountered on the path to inner peace. As a beginner, we might find ourselves perplexed by the absence of the touted serenity and instead confronted with frustration and anger after trying to meditate. This was the case for Newberg. Yet, amidst the confusion, a sage counsel resonated: perhaps she was on the right track. Through introspection and insight from experts, Newberg delves into the psychology of meditation, uncovering its transformative potential in acknowledging and processing difficult emotions. Acknowledging such difficult emotions is mindfulness, too! We invite you to embrace the discomfort as an integral step toward self-awareness and mastering meditation.

💆90 SEC TENSION RELEASE Intentional meditation and breathwork serve as powerful tools for managing and controlling our mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual states when we experience stress, anxiety, and overwhelm. Research has demonstrated that deep intentional meditation and hypnosis can further facilitate the transformation of unwanted long-term thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Just as we acquire any behavior, skill, or task—such as driving a car—it requires repetition. So, to unlearn, replace, or change an old behavior, the same process applies, right? 🚀Imagine if you could expedite the change process with a personalized session tailored specifically for you. This session would be recorded, allowing you to listen to it every night at bedtime while you sleep, establishing direct contact with your subconscious mind. Since the subconscious governs your autopilot responses and serves as the blueprint for all your current behaviors, introducing new desired behaviors during sleep has been shown to significantly increase success rates. ⭐For more details, I offer a FREE 30-minute consultation to connect with you and understand the root cause of your situation. ▶️BOOK your FREE 30-Minute Consult at mapmygoals.com.au. ❤️ FOLLOW on YouTube @YouTube.com/@mapmygoals ❤️ FOLLOW on Instagram @mapmygoalslifecoach ❤️ FOLLOW on TikTok @mapmygoalslifecoach ❤️ FOLLOW on Facebook @mapmygoals #lifecoaching #hypnosis #makeithappen #lifeamplified #lifedesire #makethechange
