IME Community Radio Blast – How to feel better

IME Community Radio Blast – How to feel better

(Playlist- “Walking on Sunshine” by Katrina and the Waves)

Do you want to feel more positive? I’m not talking about the toxic positivity sugary layer of fakeness slapped on tough situations.  Don’t you just feel like telling toxic positive people to shut their mouths?

Positivity has to be believable.

You create positivity with your thoughts and with intention.

You can’t always change up the circumstances or people or situations in our lives, but you can change your thoughts to create more positivity in your life.

First, if you feel stuck in a funk, start taking some action that will support creating positivity in your life.  I challenge you to go outside for at least a few minutes every day. 

You will connect to the world outside of yourself.  Make an observation.  Positivity is all about connection.

Every day, start creating positivity by writing down three things you are grateful for and before you go to bed, write down three amazing things that happened today.  Literally, can be the smallest things ever. 

Start connecting on purpose and with daily intention and over time, you will create more positive thoughts, which generate more positive feelings, which create more positive actions and results in your life!

Are you worried about COVID weight gain?

Are you being hard on yourself or mobilizing that negative self-talk inner critic?

I could say, just stop it, but we all know it’s not that easy.

We’ve all been through a lot with COVID and are learning how to merge into life again.

Have grace and compassion for yourself.

First, recognize when you are triggered and being hard on yourself and how it comes up in your body. It’s okay.
Breathe in and out through your nose to calm. Put your hand over your heart or give yourself a little nurturing hug. Disrupt the negative self-talk by standing up, going outside for a few minutes, or try talking with self-compassion to yourself like you would a friend who is being hard on themselves.

All change starts with loving ourselves, but first you have to recognize when you are giving that inner critic all your power. You’ve got this! Check out my daily mini podcast episodes IME Community Radio Blasts to get your day started with self-love! On my playlist for the day is a song from my favorite band, U2, “Sometimes You Can’t Make It on Your Own”, which means we’re all in this together. Let’s co-create IME Community!
