present-moment

I’ve been asked this question several times a week for the last 10+ years. You may feel SO ready to share your life with someone . . . only to have had dates that fizzled out or incompatible relationships . . . or perhaps you’ve remained single with no such person on the horizon. It can even begin to feel like that’s the way it will always be.
 
If you’re working through feelings of longing, loneliness, or sadness—or just want to feel more excited about dating—in today’s new episode, I share 3 tools that will help you effectively manage those difficult emotions, and give you real hope for the future.

There are so many benefits to mindfulness with one of the biggest being the cultivation of more self-awareness. This cultivation can lead to identifying the unhelpful mental habits that can develop over the years.

Today we’re going to talk to Carol Wilson who offers very clear and practical ways that Buddhist meditation can help us turn down the volume on our unproductive mental habits and be less reactive.

Wilson is a guiding teacher at the Insight Meditation Society, where for many years she has taught their annual three-month retreat. She began her insight meditation practice in 1971 in India and in the 1980s she spent a year in Thailand as a Buddhist nun. 

In this episode we talk about:

• How to be mindful throughout the day
• The concept of 360 degree awareness
• Noticing when one experiences wanting or aversion 
• Why Wilson believes that the root of suffering comes from making it all about us
• How seeing torment can help us experience freedom from the self
• The benefits of reflecting on your past acts of generosity 
• Bringing awareness to your motivations
• And doing a gratitude practice regularly to change the weather pattern in your mind

This is a really fire mashup revolving around balancing your life & sleep that a lot of you need to hear ... hustling doesn't necessarily mean that you're working 22 hours a day without sleeping - I think sleep is one of the most important things - it matters what you're doing doing those 16 hours that you're awake. I also talk about how I think about "work/life" balance and my methods for keeping what I see as balance.

Episode 269 -  Stop trying to plan out your entire life. This episode will dive into the importance of planning just the next step and how to live your life like you are looking through headlights.
