The human body is miraculous. It's easy to become discouraged with the rise of cancer and heart disease… but think about it.Most of the population barely moves their bodies, the products we use are full of toxic chemicals, the food we eat is processed with GMOs, sprayed with pesticides, and pumped with hormones and antibiotics...When you put in perspective how much your body has to fight off based on your current lifestyle, it’s a miracle we’re alive to see another day. And then, our body screams for help through symptoms and aches and pains and we cover it up with meds.So if our bodies can do all this for survival, constantly, what else is it capable of?Today we are furthering our work on breaking free of the mental matrix that is our medical system and getting into some biohacking.We’re learning about breathwork.

Ep 055: Relationships are deeply woven into our experience on this planet. From the day we are born, we’re completely dependent on someone else.You’ve probably heard that our relationships are mirrors. I’ve always thought of this as a way of saying: How you see other people is a reflection of how you see yourself.But at another angle, your relationships with other people are your opportunity to experience yourself and to grow. When you’re in it, the growth can be hard to see. It’s actually most often in hindsight that we realize what we learned. But the more you shift your mindset to awareness in your relationships, you start to experience it in real time.Our guest today is Bryanna Dee and she understands what it feels like to let her relationships define her life. From a difficult childhood and a complicated relationship with her parents, to traumatic breakup.She was so concerned with trying to be the person she thought she was supposed to be that she was totally disconnected from herself, and as a result, also from others. Eventually through allowing herself to be seen and seeing herself through a new lens, she began to discover who she really is. The more connected she became to herself, the more comfortable she became opening up to others and the more connected she became with everything else in the world.Today we will learn: How to go from losing yourself to finding yourself in relationships How to approach relationships for your growth How to have compassion even when you don’t understand someone Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/055  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.

Ep 054: A spiritual awakening is like an expanding of consciousness. Your perceptions wake up a little. You don’t perceive reality in the same way. Spiritual awakenings lead to higher states of consciousness, a deeper sense of intuition and a greater connection with spirit.

And sometimes it takes something so painful that it completely shatters the ego.That is the case for our guest today.

Ep 052: When we’re young, we tend to think the path to success is straight and clear. We get good grades, maybe go to a good college, get a good job and slowly work our way up the corporate ladder. But in reality, life is full of twists and turns.What we’re doing now may not even be in the same category as the legacy we eventually leave. If you would have told me in high school that in 15 years I would be the host of a podcast helping people to realize the power of their mindsets, I would have been flattered but pretty sure you had the wrong girl.But it is interesting that even before when I honestly had no idea what my purpose was and still somehow there’s this perfect little breadcrumb trail of the value I can offer right now.Our guest today understands this completely. Jessica Honegger has done everything from midwifery in Bolivia, to getting a Masters in Education, to flipping homes in Austin, Texas. It’s only in reflecting back does she see the common thread… which was a desire to find way s to create meaningful opportunity for others.During a trip to Kenya in her teens she first saw the effects of global poverty. That trip ignited the first sparks of the desire to help people with less privilege than us.After having two kids, she decided to extend her family by adopting a boy from Rwanda. But she didn’t have the money. She’ll tell you all the details but basically what began as an idea to make some extra cash to adopt a child turned into a $17 million global business empowering women.Today we will learn: How to overcome fear and go in scared The power of collaboration How to multiply your ideas with an invisible counsel Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/052  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.

Ep 051: Did you know that 70% of people who win the lottery or come into large sums of money end up broke?There’s an audiobook called The Power of Ambition by Jim Rohn that says “If someone hands you a million dollars, best you become a millionaire so you can keep the money. If you don’t grow to where your income is, then guess what, your income shrinks to where you are. Become a millionaire not for the million dollars, but for what it will make of you to achieve it.”The biggest thing that gets in our own way is our own mindset about money. And even moreso, our belief systems about what we’re truly worth.Today we’re talking to Ashley Stahl. A couple years ago, Ashley thought she’d made it. She struck it rich in online business. In her late twenties, she had managed to make over 5 million dollars in just a few months, selling an online course. Then she lost it all… and then some. She actually went in debt. What it really came down to was worthiness and what she felt she deserved.Today we will learn: Limiting beliefs that keep us from succeeding How our core values help us find our purpose The importance of relationships for happiness Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/051  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.
