Meditating for Everyday People
If adding meditation to your life has been something you’ve been meaning to get to for a while now, why not start today?
Whether your meditation is at home, school, work, or any other place you can take 5 minutes for yourself, the consciousness you’ll gain from centering your mind and focusing on nothing but the smoothness of your breath will benefit every aspect of your life.
Dealing With Change
The only constant in life is change, so it’s likely that you’ve experienced it many times.
Though we all go through periods of change, some embrace it and deal with it quite effectively, while others suffer from “transition anxiety” and find themselves completely derailed by the shifts and surprises that life dishes out, which leaves them feeling uncertain about how to approach a new situation, and the future as a whole.
Boosting Your Wealth
Some might think it unfathomable to be considering ways to become wealthy in the midst of a recession, but there is never a bad time to try to leverage your talents and resources in an effort to boost your net worth.
Even in the face of market volatility, and even if you don’t foresee a salary increase in the next few years, there are some things you can do to build upon your wealth, most of which start with simply changing your way of thinking.
Lost and Found Motivation
As children, your motivation is dangled in front of you by your parents. Either you got something of desire if you complied, or perhaps you faced punishment if you did not do as you were asked.
Of course, your motivation for getting up and going to work every day is at least the paycheck at the end of the week, but hopefully you also go for the satisfaction you get from your job. Maybe not.
Tips for Living In the Moment
If your sense of peace and contentment comes from what you own, or what goals and achievements you have created throughout your life, then it is time to stop and take a look around you. We are human beings, not human “doings” or human “havings”.
Yet, despite existing as human beings, we often let the art of “being” escape us. Think about the last time you had “nothing to do”. How did you feel? Bored, restless, fidgety, anxious, worried, or depressed?
Get Out of Your Rut
Do you feel like your life is stuck?
When you find yourself discontent with everyday life, or you have a nagging feeling that you need a change, you’re probably in a rut. Ruts are not uncommon. So many of us find ourselves stuck in a job we don’t like, living repeated patterns of frustration and stress, and even feeling less than enthusiastic about our relationships and family.
Getting out of ruts can be challenging. We have a great ability to change ourselves, but we often don’t know where to begin. Sometimes it just takes a helping hand: an outside perspective, fresh ideas, or someone to act as a sounding board to vent frustrations and share inspirations can be invaluable to successfully navigating a slump. When you are ready to shake up your life, or at least figure out why you feel blasé, it might time to turn to a lifestyle design coach.
Invest In You
Many of us are either economically pinched or struggling to justify additional purchases out of fear of spending our precious reserves. While this seems sensible, not investing in ourselves or our lives could be hurting us.
Using our resources to continue to thrash around in a life fraught with endless debts and expenses and a job that doesn’t satisfy our inner self or our pocketbook can be frustrating. This frustration might be leaking out into our lives in unseen ways – maybe extra junk food in your grocery cart, frivolous shopping to ease your discontent, or petty arguments with loved ones. Now more than ever, it’s time to start using our resources to empower ourselves.
Living in the Clarity Mind State
The Clarity Mind State is a state where one resides completely and unequivocally in the present moment.
Life flows from moment to moment effortlessly and easily.
What About You?
Time is the real wealth. Lately, I’ve been taking more time to do things that bring me joy. Playing the guitar, spending time in nature and longer periods of meditation.
Taking time for yourself seems idyllic and unrealistic to many of us. With many people taking on an abundance of responsibility and struggling to make ends meet, taking time for ourselves seems selfish and irresponsible. What about the bills, the kids, the boss, the spouse, the dishes, the dog, and the neighborhood bake sale? Who will water the lawn, who will get that deadline met?
