Hi!
You may like most Human beings, by nature, take a second to get attached to something or someone and an eternity to let that same thing go.
Letting Go of someone was (Used to be) hard for me! I am different.
I cry deeply at sad movies and watching insects mate. BEAUTIFUL EXPERIENCES!
I used to not want to be that way….
Being an empath.
Being so moved and touched by everything.
I was embarrassed. .. I was shamed for obsessing!
I love with my whole heart! I attach.
Today, these traits I am grateful for but I wasn’t always grateful.
I used to self-loath not knowing I was behaving in a self-loathing manor trying to wake myself up to —- who I was being from moment to moment.
I wasn’t being my true nature, I was being my beliefs!
No, I used to think differently and because I went against my own nature I had dis-ease,,,an eating disorder, a sleeping disorder…ug destructive coping mechanisms!
When I learned to embody the deepest love without judging myself for it! Allowing myself to forgive, everything worked better inside my body!
You have a “Nature”. Fighting your own natural tendencies causes illness!
Today we focus on:
Letting go of discomfort and dis-ease.
Letting go of aging!
Letting go of tired!
Today on Wellness Wednesday: Stay Young and Youthing!
Stay Focused and Energized!

Deeply Inspiring!
I was a guest speaker on a Miracle Makers Academy MasterClass and I was greatly impressed not only by the level of Dr. Sarah’s authentic kindness and expertise, but also by how present she was with every single attendee. The way she held loving and welcoming space for everyone, myself included, was the expression of a genuine heart-centered healer. Thank you, Dr Sarah, your example is deeply inspiring!

If you yourself don’t choose what thoughts and images you expose yourself to, someone else will.” — Epictetus
Similarly,
“If you don’t prioritize your life, someone else will.” — Greg McKeown
Or even still,
“If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.” — Jim Rohn
This theme repeats for good reason.
To wander through life aimlessly is easy. Many of us want a better life but few are willing to do what is necessary to create a better life. A purposeful life requires hard work, thinking, planning, and persistence.
The only person that can figure out what you want in life is you. You must determine what your values, dreams, and ambitions are. It can feel like a daunting task, but as soon as you identify those, you can create a plan to achieve them. Otherwise, you will go through life erratically.
You will fall victim to what Viktor Frankl referred to as the existential vacuum. With no instinct to follow, you will either conform to what others do or fall prey to totalitarianism by doing what others tell you to do. Both options result in anguish and a general life malaise.
“What if we stopped celebrating being busy as a measurement of importance? What if instead we celebrated how much time we had spent listening, pondering, meditating, and enjoying time with the most important people in our lives?” — Greg McKeown
We live in a society that glorifies a busy life, because being busy must correlate to productivity and a sense of purpose, right? Wrong.
When asked how we are doing we routinely respond with “busy”.
Busy is B.S.. It’s a lazy answer. It’s also a sure way to look back after a decade and wonder what the hell happened. You’ll be left wondering, “What did I accomplish?”
Do you hide from your problems, by distracting yourself with a beehive of activity? Are you running away from your anxiety and angst? Perhaps that’s because you are unwilling to confront your problems. Your solution to your problems is to stuff them down deep inside to a place where you don’t have to deal with them. Unfortunately, these pesky feelings eventually rear their ugly heads.
What you must do is slow down, think, and find solitude. For in solitude you finally allow yourself to confront your problems and face them head-on. The only way to get rid of that sense of anxiety and worry is to stop and think. You must eliminate the non-essential activities in your life to open the door to the essential activities that will give you true purpose, clarity, and meaning.
“Whether You Believe You Can Do a Thing or Not, You Are Right” — Henry Ford
The origins of this quote are a bit murky but the lesson in it is still relevant.
The mind is an incredible tool, but like a muscle, it must be honed, shaped, and sculpted, otherwise, it will wither away and hold you back.
When you successfully train your mind it can be the greatest asset in propelling you forward in life.
There’s a great story about the power of a positive mindset from president Franklin Roosevelt.
At the age of 39, he contracted polio, a debilitating disease that leaves one paralyzed throughout the body. Many thought this would crush his spirits and likely be the end of his career. Roosevelt thought otherwise.
In the depressing surroundings of his hospital bed and surrounded by a melancholy group of family and friends, Roosevelt made it a point to put on a bright and cheery disposition. Whether this was for the betterment of the people he cared for or for his own sake did not matter, the effect was noticeable.
By pretending to be happy and cheerful he began to feel better. By acting happy, he did what a happy person would do. By acting happy he actually became happy.
The disease may have robbed him of the use of his legs but it would not rob him of his ability to think for himself or to choose how he felt.
With this attitude, he made a miraculous, albeit incredibly difficult recovery. With incredible determination, he built his way back into the public arena, despite never regaining use of his legs. Roosevelt bravely overcame his fears of being embarrassed by his disease in front of millions of people in the public arena.
He bravely forged ahead and became one of the strongest presidents of the United States in two of the most trying times in its history, the Great Depression and the Second World War.
The man that had to rebuild his own body, helped to rebuild the body of the United States after two debilitating blows. He never would have been able to do any of this had he not believed in the power for anyone and everyone to change and recover from their worst nightmares.
“If it is to be, it’s up to me.” — Coach George Raveling
If you want anything in life, it’s up to you. No outside force is strong enough to push you into what you want. You must be responsible for securing it.
What do you wish to happen in your life? Are you realizing your greatest dreams or are you falling short?
When you fall short, do you blame others and external circumstances, or are you willing to look into the mirror and figure out why things are unfolding as they are?
When you look inward, you analyze your decisions, your reactions, your attitude in life that are holding you back. Through analysis, you can create solutions to your problems. By holding yourself accountable and being responsible, you stop finding excuses and start finding solutions. That is where the glory in life lives.
“Does your mind have control over you or are you going to have control of your mind?” — Olympic silver medalist Galen Rupp
Most people’s minds are a wild, unruly beast running wildly from one thing to the next, at the mercy of their emotions, fears, and habitual patterns.
When times get tough will you allow your emotions to overrun you and make horrible decisions? Will you resort to self-sabotaging behaviors or will you work to recognize these pitfalls and overcome them?
The world’s best athletes aren’t the best because they are leaps and bounds more athletically gifted than their competition. At the highest level of competition, everyone is an incredible athlete. What separates the average from the great athlete is the time spent training their minds.
They confront their greatest fears. They become a student of their behaviors, routines, and rituals. They learn what is holding them back, nearly always it’s mental.
From there they train their minds, they reshape it and take back control of a reckless mind. Rather than being their greatest weakness they turn it into their greatest advantage. Able and willing to overcome life’s hardest and most challenging problems.
“Success is a double-edged sword. You want to shadow box with it but you don’t want to embrace it or dance too close.” — Robert Redford
Success is addicting but it also has a nasty side effect, it instills fear. Fear of loss and the fear of failure. Success is a lousy teacher.
When you achieve a certain level your mind slowly shifts away from seeking greater heights to holding onto what you have. You can’t imagine sliding back to where you once were. That is a dangerous mindset. You switch from growing to protecting.
What enabled your greatest success was the lack of fear, the lack of care in what the outcome was. Your lack of expectations.
Look at some of your favorite musicians, artists, or authors. Ever notice how after they have a hit record or book they suddenly plateau? Their music becomes safe and eventually, you can’t tell one song from the other.
Their past success becomes a prison. They can’t imagine straying from the “winning formula”.
The problem is, the winning formula is ever changing. The only constant in life is change, so if you aren’t changing, you’re falling behind.
What got you to where you are currently in life isn’t what’s going to get you to the next level. The next level requires a new person and a new approach. The only thing that can and will do that is to constantly challenge yourself and your assumptions.
You have to constantly reinvent yourself if you wish to go farther.
“Why is this so unbearable? Why can’t I endure it?” You’ll be embarrassed to answer.” — Marcus Aurelius
What is happening to you in your life is merely a matter of perspective and perception.
When you gain perspective, you realize what you are going through is not unique. Other people have been there before or have had it worse. Misery may love company, but if you find the company that has overcome that misery, then there’s a light at the end of the tunnel for you. The path is there.
Furthermore, stoics teach what happens in life is out of your control. The only thing you can control is how you react to events as they unfold. As Epictetus said, “We cannot choose our external circumstances, but we can always choose how we respond to them.”
This line of thinking is liberating. Rather than spending costly time and energy trying to control what you cannot, redirect your energies to what you can…yourself. Your actions. Your perceptions of an event.
When something goes horribly wrong in your life, the question isn’t “why is this happening to me”, it must be “why is this happening for me?” What can you learn from even the worst experiences?
The people that survive and thrive are the ones that find purpose and meaning in what has happened in life.
“If it’s normal, do the exact opposite” — Jesse Cole, owner of the Savannah Bananas baseball team
Like a high-schooler desperately seeking validation from our peers, many of us set out to do exactly what others have done before us.
We are too afraid to actually do the “crazy things” we wish to do.
The result: a restless life. Constant judging of our current lot in life and a constant second-guessing of ourselves.
Jesse Cole, the crazy man in the yellow tux and owner of the Savannah Bananas baseball team has made a career out of being different. In fact, it’s precisely what has made him outrageously successful. Hell, he named his team the Bananas! Who does that?
In a sport that has plateaued in terms of growth and popularity, Jesse has brought back the fun and excitement to baseball.
The game of baseball is mired in tradition. Anybody that wishes to step outside the norm is immediately ridiculed and cast out of the baseball inner circle.
By questioning all the norms, by not being afraid to look like a fool, Jesse has created a baseball program in Savannah, Georgia that sells out every single game! The best part is, this isn’t even a professional baseball team. Quite the contrary, it’s a college summer league team. It’s about as low on the pecking order in terms of most watched and followed baseball.
I could try and describe the showmanship and antics that go on in this stadium but why do that when you can see for yourself.
Elon Musk is one of the biggest names in the world today and he deserves to be. He is the founder of Tesla (an electric automobile organization) and SpaceX (a space exploration organization). Elon Musk is a real visionary who just wants to work for changing the world. He even released the patent of electric vehicles that he had for Tesla cars and said that anyone can use this technology.
Elon Musk is an inspiration for a lot of people (including me) and knows how to motivate people with the things he does and says. He is a highly quotable man and his quotes can get you in the mood to work your butt off.
“When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor”
If doing or accomplishing something is very important to you, you’ll do it no matter what. Even if the odds are against you, you’ll give it your all and the only thing on your mind would be accomplishing that goal. If we start considering everything as important as that goal, nothing and no one will be able to stop us.
“If you get up in the morning and think the future is going to be better, it is a bright day. Otherwise, it’s not”
Whenever someone says that they are having a bad day, it means that they woke up in a bad mood or with a negative thought in their mind. If we wake up thinking that today will be a great day, nothing can stop us from being happy and optimistic.
“Persistence is very important. You should not give up unless you are forced to give up”
If you make up your mind about something and you want to achieve it no matter what, you have to keep working for it. Quitting or giving up is not an option unless something or someone forces you to. Even then, give it all you’ve got and keep fighting to achieve your goals. Persistence is one of the biggest parts of success.
“It’s OK to have your eggs in one basket as long as you control what happens to that basket”
Whatever you want to do in your life is your choice and it’s up to you to keep everything in order. Gather all the assets (ideas) you need and it’s ok to stack them up in one place (your mind). You just need to make sure you don’t create a mess (get confused). Just remember what your goal is and where every asset (idea) comes into play.
“If you go back a few hundred years, what we take for granted today would seem like magic-being able to talk to people over long distances, to transmit images, flying, accessing vast amounts of data like an oracle. These are all things that would have been considered magic a few hundred years ago”
This one is considerably long and the meaning is even deeper. Elon Musk wants to imply that nothing is impossible. By saying ‘magic’, he refers to the things that are considered as impossible. He gives the example of the past where many things that we do today would be considered as magic. So, anything we consider as impossible or magic is something that is actually possible and is just waiting for us to make that happen.
“We’re going to make it happen. As God is my bloody witness, I’m hell-bent on making it work”
This is nothing but sheer motivation and determination. We should be confident in whatever we believe in or want to do. Just start implementing your ideas and the rest of the work will be done with the help of your sheer determination and undying spirit.
“I think it is possible for ordinary people to choose to be extraordinary”
This quote teaches us not to be limited to boundaries or other limitations or any limitations of any kind. Being ordinary and extraordinary are both your choice. Even if you are an ordinary human being, you can choose to be extraordinary. All you need is an idea and a little bit of motivation.
“I could either watch it happen or be a part of it”
Elon Musk wants to imply that it’s our choice to either be an audience or a part of the show. If you’re not going to implement your idea, someone else will have the same idea and implement it. Then, you’ll just be able to witness your original idea being implemented by someone else. So, just do what you need to in order to achieve your goals before someone else makes your goal their own.
