Better Than Happy

Today I’m taking a break from the Clean Parenting Series (which will be back next week) in order to talk about the 2016 Presidential Election results. More specifically, I want to talk about what you’re feeling and how to manage your emotions through this process. Then I have some questions sent in by listeners that I want to answer today.

Our children are here on earth to experience an entire range of emotions and as parents it can be heartbreaking to watch. But for your child (and for yourself) resisting emotion actually feels much worse than just allowing and processing it. Most of us were taught to resist it as children and when we try to talk our kids out of feeling bad we're passing on that same harmful message. Today I'm teaching you how to help them process it at any age in the hopes you will give your children this gift. The post Ep 69.

You’ve heard of clean eating and how good it is for your body. Getting rid of toxins and chemicals and all the things that are not natural or good for us in the end? Clean parenting is how you get rid of the dirty pain that is keeping you from showing up how you really want to for your family. The post Ep 68.

Gretchen Rubin says “outer order contributes to inner calm,” and if you find that keeping your house clean and orderly is a challenge, today’s episode is for you. Jessica Bennett is the founder and co-owner (along with her husband) of Alice Lane Home. Today she talks to us about how to create a space that we love and that loves us back. Creating an interior space that contributes to your lifestyle and is elegant to you, sends a message to yourself about your value. The post Ep 67.

Our energy is like time or money in that it is in limited supply at any given time and it's something I want you to consider using wisely and investing to get a return on when you can. Many of us don't pay attention to where we are putting our energy and this lack of intention will not always create the life and feelings you want to have. The post Ep 66.

We all have interactions and events in our lives that help mold and shape us in profound ways. Sometimes they affect us in positive, empowering ways and sometimes they impact us negatively and keep us from progressing and feeling confident about ourselves and our world. I call these turning points. Turning points usually have a significant amount of emotion attached and cause us to realize that something we thought was true isn’t or to consider something we never had before. The post Ep 65.

Sometimes we’re grateful that other people are good at things we’re not good at. Other times we wonder why everyone isn’t like us and at times we even find it very annoying and inconvenient. But we are all different and of course this is a good thing.  The post Ep 64. Strengths and Weaknesses appeared first on Jody Moore.

Sometimes it’s hard to say no but failing to do so can lead to a life that is less than authentic. In fact it’s living in dishonesty or at the least without full integrity for yourself and others. There is no room in your life or mine for this.  The post Ep 63. How to Say No appeared first on Jody Moore.

If you haven’t heard Dr. Finlayson-Fife’s message before you are in for a real treat. On today’s episode I interview her and she talks to us about our sexuality in the context of our religious beliefs. She offers useful advice about how to best teach children about their sexuality and the law of chastity without shaming or creating potential problems later in life. We discuss pornography, what to do if you are married and feeling a lack of desire, and other insight related to this topic. The post Ep 62.

Do you consume more than you create? We consume thing like food, clothing, housewares, electronics, information, entertainment, social media and much more. A part of you desires to contribute something in the world in order to give a part of yourself and feel connected to the greater whole.  The post Ep 61.
