We will learn: How our personal struggles actually influence our biology How to examine the 4 points of your personal compass Why letting in is just as important as letting go It seems the most interesting, complex and inspiring people I know have all been through something really hard. They’ve struggled somehow.Struggles help us develop resilience. Often in order to survive, we start searching for things – help, resources, conversations, maybe something inside ourselves like our own strengths. But not everyone who struggles finds their light. Some stay in the darkness. Some feel beaten down by their experience and just can’t seem to find the strength to get up and out of it. They feel like the world is against them, or they’re a victim of their own circumstance. So what’s the difference? Why do some people’s struggles seem to make them, while others break them?So how do we start to find that meaning? How to we start to recognize the wisdom in our own achievements? Instead of just the details of our own stories?Our guest is Kirsten Beverley Waters. She is a Yoga Medicine teacher, fitness coach, author, and motivational speaker. She credits the low moments in her life with enabling her to find her voice and harness her powers.

We will learn: How suffering prepares us for enjoyment and happiness The first step to finding our way out of our mental suffering How to navigate the emotions and thoughts that are surfacing right now both inside ourselves and within our personal relationships   Whether you’ve gone through something big and traumatic, or just feel overwhelmed by the day to day hardships, we all suffer. Even those that seem to have everything handed to them on a silver platter will find a way to create their own suffering.

We will learn: How can you open your mind and heart to what is holding you back How to  open yourself up to the psychic dimension How to integrate the ego for a more unified self What’s your relationship to your ego? We get a lot of mixed messages about ego. I think the first things I understood about it was just what it means to have a big ego, or to be egotistical.What if instead of shunning the ego, we integrate it. We acknowledge its intention, even feel grateful for it, but just understand there are more pieces to the puzzle that need to be considered before just act on the ego’s impulse.Thinking about the ego this way can be a pretty big step in self love. And moving away from separation and towards unity. Because how can we really feel unity with our full selves if we’re resisting such a big part of our own humanity?So that’s part of what we’re diving into today. Our guest is Vincent Genna. Vincent is known as the “tell-it-like-it-is” and a truly authentic Spiritual Teacher and Psychic Therapist.Vincent also teaches all levels of psychic and mediumship skills, including communicating with animals. He’s got a big personality and is such an amazing story teller so this will be a fun episode.Sign up for Mind Love Premium here.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
