Our brain believes what we tell it! In this episode we talk about how the brain does not have a true concept of time because in truth we can revisit a memory or even visit a planned future event in our mind and bring ourselves into feelings and emotions that are created at the time of the event as though we are experiencing it in the now.

When we immerse ourselves in gratitude we are creating the reality of how we perceive the external events that happen in our lives. Coming from this elevated emotion helps us to make better decisions and bring positive change to our lives. By doing this we are setting our own frequency and in doing so we are projecting our energy instead of absorbing the energy of others. We set the precedents for what we experience no matter what kinds of challenges arise.

When we are setting goals we are sometimes oblivious to the changes that we have to make within ourselves in order to get us to a place of being able to go for our dreams and goals. We have to determine what is keeping us from getting into the action phase of our plan. Observing our own behaviors and discovering what it is in within ourselves that prevent us, the habits that we create and maintain that do not serve our higher purpose. This is the precursor to any plan we make. It is through gradual changes we are able to view ourselves as capable of making the necessary changes and our ability to sustain them.

In this episode we talk about rediscovering your inner child and celebrating that free spirit within. We see the light in the eyes of a child and hear the joy that emanates through their laughter and it becomes contagious. Celebrating our inner child is a way of bringing back the wonder and lightheartedness that is sometimes missing in our adult lives. We often stay in serious mode so much of the time wrapped up in our thoughts of responsibilities and daily routines. It is an essential part of our mental health to laugh and embrace those joyful moments.
