Mind Love • Modern Mindfulness to Think, Feel, and Live Well

Your life and what you do with it, is directly impacted by how worthy you feel. If you don’t feel like you deserve something, chances are you won’t have it.Why? You won’t take action or you won’t create the energy needed to attract the outcome.How worthy you feel will affect your ability to see things, even challenges as things that happen for you instead of to you.So it’s really important we get a handle on this.But how? It’s not like we just chose to not feel worthy. Our self-worth is usually a reflection of a whole lot of past experiences, what other people have said to us, other people dripping their personal crap onto us, and evidence we’ve collected throughout our lives.Today we’re talking to Tracy Litt, a certified mindset coach and transformation therapist and author of the book Worthy Human. I loved this interview because she calls you on your bullshit. She’s fun and direct and cuts right to the heart of what’s real and true.Today we will learn: How to own your shit through a total subconscious audit How to handle it when you’re affected by other people’s shit How to change your experience by tuning into higher parts of yourself and others Show Notes: mindlove.com/089 Sign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes from your highest self.  Get Mind Love Premium for exclusive ad-free episodes and monthly meditations.  Support Mind Love Sponsors Learn more about your ad choices.

Have you ever thought of what it would take to get to absolute peak performance in your body, career, or just life in general?I remember watching the Olympics as a kid and thinking, "Those people must just be built differently.

There’s a saying, “Expectations are premeditated resentments.” We project our past into our future or we hold people and circumstances to imaginary standards.But just because we expect something, doesn’t mean it will happen.This becomes a real problem when we pin our hopes on happiness on having our expectations fulfilled.It’s basically giving the reigns of our happiness to our circumstances or to other people.We all face setbacks we cannot control, yet we often forget that we have a choice about how to handle those setbacks. The “Expectation Hangovers” we feel in the wake of disappointment, failure, or loss can become doorways to tremendous opportunities and life-changing gifts.Managing your expectations is not about lowering your standards. Today we talk to Master coach Christine Hassler who specializes in radical self-reflection. We talk on how to pursue the right goals for the right reasons and also what to do when things don’t work out as expected.Today we will learn: The difference between Intention vs expectation Practical steps to releasing expectation in relationships How to stop judging your emotions Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/085 Sign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes from your highest self.  Get Mind Love Premium for exclusive ad-free episodes and monthly meditations.  Support Mind Love Sponsors Learn more about your ad choices.

It's crazy that we don't really learn how to take care of ourselves in a way that will help us live long, healthy, optimal lives.

If I’m not happy now, will I ever be?The takeaway is that we need to take our health and happiness into our own hands. We need to learn how to really truly care for ourselves.People will read tons of books on how to care for their new baby, but a lot of people don’t even think to read a book on how to take care of themselves… ironic right?When you educate yourself on nutrition and superfoods, you can level up your brain and body in powerful ways.Today’s episode covers a range in health care, from nutrition to finding our passion.Our guest is celebrity chef and nutritionist, Serena Poon.
