Ep 15901590: Three Words to Say to Yourself to Start Feeling Calmer
One of the biggest reasons I teach meditation is to help practitioners, and all people, understand who they truly are, not just what they have been told. That isn't even close to the whole story. If you knew who you truly were, you wouldn's stress as much. Why don't we start that journey today.

For many people being afraid of the dark was something they conquered when they were a toddler. But there is another aspect of the dark that many, if not most, people still struggle with.

Ep 15801580: Stop Stressing About the End of the Year

Ep 15741574: The Perfect App for Curbing Your Incessant Scrolling
I'm not immune to the lure of social media. In fact about three months ago I found myself doing something that I hadn't done before; spending over 30 minutes scrolling through reels on Instagram.

Ep 15731573: Change Your Focus to the Things That Make You Happy
It's not an judgment, but a fact. Our outlook, when left unchanged, tends to lean more to the negative. It's not indicative of personality; it's indicative of the fact that we are all human.

Ep 15691569: Does Social Media Enhance Your Life
There are pros and cons to everything. For me, at the risk of sounding like a number cruncher, it comes down to your ROI, return on investment.

Ep 15651565: Little Doses of Comfort Are Fine
When life gets a little tough there are things we can do to smooth out the roughness.

There are little things we can do that will make those tough times more manageable. Conversely, there are comforting things that we add to our lives to avoid feeling any discomfort.

Ep 15641564: Our Eyes Don't See Everything
Our eyes allow us to see the smiles of the people we love. They allow us to see a sunset, or the rain as it falls. But as wonderful as our eyes are, sometimes they don't allow us to see everything; and that's okay. Many times what we think we see is a fabrication of our own biases. In these instances, we become tired and even sad. Today I talk about how we can use our eyes to their best advantage, while also understanding that we don't need to make up stories from what our eyes see.

Ep 15621562: Recognizing the Urge to Push Forward
Our culture here in the United States is always telling us to move, to keep doing, to keep producing. Sometimes it isn't even society and culture. Sometimes it is our own fears and worries.
