Real Self-Care for Mind, Body and Soul • 081

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. Unless we seek the information ourselves, we don’t learn real nutrition, how to manage our emotions, or how to find fulfillment.Then so many of us reach a point where we think, is this all there is? 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. Her mission to promote further education around the mindful combination of food, nutrition and healing intuition in what she has coined, “Culinary Alchemy™.”Today we will learn: Why self-care is the least selfish thing you can do How to break free from emotional dependency How to satisfy unhealthy cravings in healthier ways Show Notes: mindlove.com/081 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.

Intuitive Decision Making • 079

Intuition is actually one of the most practical tools that we have as human beings, both in business and in life. It helps you make faster decisions, it helps you connect with yourself and make choices based on what’s right for you.If we want to be brilliant, or an innovator, or be ahead of the curve, we have to make decisions faster. We have to be able to trust our instincts. And we have to be willing to invest in our own ideas before something’s already been proven.Our relationships with ourselves, should be the strongest relationships that we have, and the more we lean on guidance outside of ourselves, we weaken that relationship.We should know our body signals. We should know when our body is telling us no, or pushing us to move forward. We should know how to trust ourselves when our inner voice is screaming at us.Today's episode is about using intuition in your decision making, whether for life, or for business.Our guest is Rick Snyder, the CEO of Invisible Edge™, an international consulting company that serves high level executives and companies to make innovative decisions based their inner guidance. Snyder combines his MA in psychology with his business experience to strengthen intuitive intelligence and create breakthrough strategies.Today we will learn: To demystify intuition The 5 things that get in the way of our intuition Practical exercises to tap into our inner wisdom Show Notes: mindlove.com/079 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.

Toxic Parents and Relationships • 075

Today we're talking about toxic parents and family members, but everything here also applies to toxic relationships, so stick around if that speaks to you.Loving someone doesn’t always mean having a relationship with them, just like forgiveness doesn’t always mean reconciliation.

A significant part of healing comes with accepting that this is a part of life; there are some relationships that are so poisonous that they destroy one’s ability to be healthy and function best.Our guest today is Dr. Sherrie Campbell. a licensed psychologist, nationally recognized expert, and inspiring author.She clarifies how parents, adult children, siblings, grandparents, and in-laws can be toxic while giving direction on how to explain cutting ties to children and others who may not understand.Today we will learn: The difference between toxic and non-toxic people and how to tell the difference The lifelong affect toxic relationships have on you How to start building back your confidence in the aftermath Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/075 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.
