"Self perception determines our behavior if we think we're smaller, limited, inadequate creatures then we tend to behave that way and the energy we radiate reflects those thoughts no matter what we do. If we think we're magnificent creatures with an infinite abundance of love and power to give then we tend to behave that way. Once again the energy around us reflects our state of awareness." In this episode I share lessons learned from reading the book A Return To Love. This book will help you understand A Course in Miracles. And even if you're not interested in the book A Course in Miracles, A Return to Love will give you a different way to look at the world. I think we can always make time to view the world from a different perspective.  Book list on my Amazon Shop --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lovemoreliveblessed/support

Why should we use mindfulness tips and techniques daily? If you think about it, our modern age can be overwhelming. We are online and available 24/7 with our smartphones. We stress about social media, our jobs, and our family life constantly. You may be reading this thinking, “I don’t have time to add mindfulness to my day.” Let me tell you though, if you’re thinking you’re too busy to add mindfulness into your life - YOU REALLY NEED IT! Mindfulness techniques can help stop attack thoughts. Attack thoughts are when you are living in your head - hashing over the past, re-living all the stupid mistakes you’ve made or re-living how others treated you badly. Attack thoughts serve no purpose in life. Yesterday is over. We only have this moment. So, attack thoughts need to go. And Mindfulness can help you with evicting those thoughts out of your brain. Mindfulness can help you make better decisions. Instead of overreacting to stress you can be calmer and more in control of yourself and the situation. Mindfulness can also help decrease the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease, high blood pressure and obesity. Read the post here: Mindfulness Tips to Try Today  Let's connect!

After all this time working remotely for a lot of us, I thought we might need to brush up on our communicating skills.  Step 1: Use the other person’s name People love hearing their name. Using someone’s name helps you remember it and makes the other person feel more comfortable around you. When people hear their name they turn towards whoever is speaking to them. We are programmed since childhood to give attention to someone who is speaking our name. Tip: When meeting new people try to write their name down as soon as you can. Writing helps you remember the name, ensuring you won’t have an awkward situation where you call someone by the wrong name. --You can read the post and grab the cheat sheet here >>>  www.lovemoreliveblessed.com  Thank you for listening!
