Mind Love™ • Consciousness, Spirituality, and Science for Awakening

Ep 048: Loneliness is a real problem. Lonely people aren’t just sadder, they are actually unhealthier and they die younger. Loneliness raises stress levels, impedes sleep, and makes depression and anxiety worse. And the scariest part is, loneliness is becoming a bigger problem. Ironically, even though we’re more connected than we’ve ever been through technology, in the physical realm, we’re more disconnected than we’ve ever been.America’s suicide rate increased by 25% between 1999 and 2016. So if connecting people across the globe instantly isn’t helping our loneliness, what can we do?Today we talk to Teal Swan, author of several books including The Anatomy of Loneliness: How to Find Your Way Back to Connection. As a survivor of severe childhood abuse, Teal Swan knowns loneliness and depression. But to make things more interesting, she was also born with a range of extrasensory abilities, including clairvoyance, clairsentience, and clairaudience.Today she uses her extrasensory gifts as well as her own harrowing life experience to inspire millions of people towards authenticity, freedom and joy. Her worldwide success has earned her the nickname “The Catalyst. And at the end of this podcast I’m also going to address a little bit of controversy so stay tuned for that.Today we will learn: The healing power of presence, non-judgment, and affectionate touch How long it takes for oxytocin to release from touch How to hold someone for healing Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/048 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 047: Have you ever wondered how really successful people got their start? We learned last week that yeah, talent will give you a leg up, but as much as talent counts, effort counts twice as much. Sure, a lot of people come from money or went to fancy private schools and have all the connections already set for them to make it big.But what about everyone else?How did Maya Angelou go from growing up in the depression to being arguably the greatest poet of our time? How did Lady Gaga go from singing at open mic nights to one of the greatest women in music history? What’s the secret? Our guest today asked himself the same thing when he was just an 18 year old college student. He thought if he could just find out what how the greatest people in the world launched their careers, he could compile all the answers in a book and change how our generation viewed success. His mission proved more difficult than he imagined, but what he realized is that there is always a way.This author is Alex Banayan, the author of the national bestseller The Third Door, which chronicles his five-year quest tracking down the world's most successful people to uncover how they broke through and launched their careers.Today we will learn: How to keep going through rejection and failure Why it’s important to carefully select your support system How to make the biggest dreams a reality Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/047 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.

When she was young her dad were tell her you’re no genius… which is ironic because she went on to become a MacArthur “genius” grant winner… so she spent the better part of her life proving him wrong.

Ep 040: Most of us, especially entrepreneurs have unbalanced feminine and masculine energy. We all need a balance of feminine energy, but over hundreds of years we’ve been taught feminine energy is weak. Those who have dealt with physical, sexual or emotional abuse are even more disconnected from our bodies.To explain how this happened, we need to learn the true history of women. It’s easy to believe women have been starting from the ground up, slowly claiming more and more power with voting rights and equal pay.But the truth is, Women had power. They were revered as mysterious, intuitive, powerful beings that could calm storms, predict future events and bring forth life through their bodies. But as political structures were formed, this unknown, mysterious power that women had became a threat and history was rewritten by those with physical strength.So many women are living in their masculine side, whether to keep up with the standards of a corporate environment, or we were physically or sexually abused, or we’re convinced our feminine nature is weak. And so many men don’t realize the balance of their feminine energy is critical to connect with intuition and empathy and to balance their power throughout their body. So today we’re going to learn about balancing our masculine and feminine energies, from the loins up.Our guest in Lani Nalu, a coach to female entrepreneurs. She lived through both sexual and domestic abuse. As she embraced her rock bottom, she experienced breakthroughs that led her to her highest purpose. Now she helps other women breakthrough the root of their pain to experience pure love and business success.We will learn: Why a balance of masculine and feminine energy is critical to success in life and in business How to connect to your personal power through thought A powerful way to start each morning that connects you to your essence of pure love.  Show Notes: mindlove.com/040 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 039: Today we’re talking about how our words don’t just influence our lives, they create our realities. We've all heard this in some forms, whether the power of affirmations, or that if we talk badly about our selves or others, we'll feel badly about them.There have even been studies showing that people with smaller vocabularies are less able to process emotions or relate to other people... because they don't have the words to conceptualize it. But there's an upside: With awareness, you can start to communicate consciously to create your best reality.Our guest today is Mary Shores, the author of Conscious Communications: A Step-by-Step Guide to Harnessing the Power of Your Words to Change Your Mind, Your Choices, and Your Life. She has spent over a decade teaching businesses and individuals how to identify their goals, create new ways of thinking, and take action to create meaningful results. Today we will learn: The neuroscience of how words create our realities The 5 ways we express ourselves A few reality-changing journaling exercises  Show Notes: mindlove.com/039 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.
