Then you have the "gift" of social media, that has us comparing our lives to the shiny make believe lives of influencers. Together we think our lives are terrible.

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.

So many people wake up and expect the day to go great, and if it doesn't they blame people or circumstances for messing up their peace.

Maybe it's time you make peace with all the aspects of who you are. It may just lead to a sense of calm.

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. Once I caught myself, I decided to find a way to curtail my phone time (and Instagram). That app is Opal. Today I talk about the app, and the perceived need to distract ourselves.

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. We inherited our cave-dwelling ancestors need to constantly be on the lookout for danger. But, we don't live in caves anymore, so we don't need that overinflated sense of fear and dread.

When we are deep in personal challenges our world shrinks. We become blind to the people around us. Even in day to day life we can become blind to the people around us. Whatever the situation, the best way to elevate your level of calm is to connect to the people around you…all people. Today I talk about how to do just that.

As we get older we feel that our options are dwindling. We feel we know longer have the ability to change things about ourselves that are no longer working. We feel we can't change circumstances.

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. With absolutely everything, I gauge whether it is adding to my life or taking away. Obviously, if something is not adding value to my life, I ditch it. Such is the case with social media. The only way to figure it all out is to ask myself some questions. Do you feel like answering some for yourself? Come listen.

Life can be stressful; no questions there. But do you know when you are stressed? Many times we are so immersed in stress that we assume it is our normal, our unstressed state. You may be able to fool your mind into thinking you aren't stressed, but your body isn't buying it. Let's talk about ways to determine if you really are stressed, so you aren't blindsided.

Sometimes we lose sight of the things that really matter. Sometimes we get swept away in the denser aspects of humanness, unwilling to reconnect to our divinity, to our light. It happens to everyone. But then what do you do? Do you stay there, or do you decide to once again step into the light; owning and relishing your divinity. Today I talk about the steps I take to do just that.

When life gets a little tough there are things we can do to smooth out the roughness. The challenge in doing that is finding things that will help us in the short term instead of finding things to do that we keep on doing long term. Comfort is a perfect example. 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.

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.

When I am instructing people in learning how to meditate, one of the best aspects of a practice is helping them open up to the world around them. Once they experience a calmer mind, then they get to see the world around them, including examples of inspiration. Come listen to how that happens.

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. Today I talk about understanding the urge to push forward. More importantly, I talk about disregarding that motivation sometimes in order to recapture a sense of calm.

Whether we like to acknowledge it or not, we all hear voices in our heads. The important thing to point out is that some of these voices are fear, worry and ego. However, along side those, are the voices of our guides and our higher selves.

Control is a funny thing. The funnier thing is the thought that we have any control. Many of us spend our days trying to make sure that nothing out of the ordinary happens. We hold the reigns tight, thinking that we alone can keep things from turning out poorly. But I would offer that control is an illusion, and if we let it go, we can experience a deeper life, a calmer life.

The world is big. And with that size comes many distractions and sources of worry and uneasiness. So if the size of the world creates unrest how about you just shrink it down. Not the world, obviously, but your perception and scope. If you're not sure how, let's talk about it.

By placing values on things we lose the ability to see things objectively. In that objectivity lies our peace of mind. So how about we simply see things as they are, without judgment? Let's talk about it.
