Today’s Mindset Reset leans into life lessons we gain as we age.

Many of us struggle with the concept of being good enough. But, what if you are already good enough? While you may reject that idea in its entirety, I sat down with therapist Lisa Tahir to chat about connecting with yourself and proving your mindset wrong when it questions your worth and right when you are in alignment of what you need and want!

Let’s get right to it…

As the new year has begun, many are thinking about what they want to create within the next twelve months. Find stillness now, as this guided meditation helps you visualize what you want to manifest on your path in the here and now.

The ball has dropped, the calendar has changed, and it’s 2024. There’s so much possibility, potential, and energy waiting for you in this new here and now. So much, in fact, that today, you and I are taking a one-on-one deep dive into kicking off the year with a forward focus. We are trashing any lack mentality you’ve developed, tossing out the word resolution, and we are getting intentional about what you need and want.

So, let’s dive right in…

We’re taking a one-on-one deep dive into why the brain is always on the lookout for trouble, how to stop being hijacked in hopes of providing a false sense of safety, and we’ll breakdown how to disentangle ourselves from our earliest patterns, wiring, and our triggers.

This big conversation will shed light on why you may be causing yourself more issues than you realize!

In today’s Mindset Reset, Lauren from South Carolina wrote, “Danielle, I’ve heard you talk about breaking everything down into facts when you are going through a hard situation. I believe you said it’s important to ask questions to find the facts, but honestly, I’m struggling with the questions! Maybe that sounds dumb, but I don’t know what to ask. I can come up with facts, but even then sometimes I feel like they aren’t facts. They are opinions or how I feel about the situation. Can you help me with the questions to make the process easier?”

We all have ups and downs, and it’s no secret that life throws hard things into our path. After all, why do you think the saying, “Bad things happen to good people,” exists? Yet, when those hard things occur, how we connect to them and how we fix our mindset plays a significant role in the moment and our overall life satisfaction. It also impacts one other major element in our lives. Can you guess what it is?

If you guessed inner peace, you are right.

So, let’s take a one-on-one deep dive into our mindsets and whether or not you play the victim in your daily life. This is an extensive conversation about identifying the small daily behaviors and habits that create the biggest divide between feeling empowered and feeling negatively impacted, I’m handing over the signs that you are living in full victim mode, and of course, we’ll be talking about how to change course from victim to victor.

Let me ask you a question I’ve been chasing the answer to for most of my life. Is there such a thing as broken people, or are there only broken moments?

Your answer may vary from the truth depending on where you are in your life, what you’ve experienced, and how you’ve processed what has been and what you believe will continue to occur.

Today, you and I are taking a one-on-one deep dive into redefining the idea of broken, and I’ll hand over something most of us are not taught, which is how to become comfortable with being uncomfortable. This is one conversation that shatters our traditional thinking and flips what you thought you needed to move forward on

Find a comfortable position and take a full deep breath. Once you’re settled, close your eyes or soften your gaze and tune into your breath. Notice it without trying to change it. Feel the air move through your nose, finding its way to the base of your lungs and slowly allowing it to slip away with a soft exhale.

Place both hands over your heart and feel the heart space expand. Then, ask yourself: Am I willing to give myself love today as I am?

If you are, offer yourself permission to do just that and release any negative thoughts that may be lingering in your mind.

With your next inhale, fully settle into the words, “I am worthy.” As you let the air go, allow those words to transform into “I am enough.”

Trauma, dysregulated emotions, high levels of stress and anxiety, all have a way of rewiring and changing your nervous system. The changes are so significant they can cause disease as you witness and carry your dis-ease; they cause coping mechanisms and self-harm, and a host of other significant life impacts. Yet, there is a way to retrain the autonomic nervous system and your relationship to your experiences.

I sat down with trauma and addiction therapist, Polyvagal Institute Course Developer, teacher, and author Jan Winhall to talk about how to shift out of flight/fight/fold and freeze, and how we can connect with ourselves and change and get out of the impending danger we feel that keeps us from relaxing and enjoying our lives.

MOST DOWNLOADED MEDITATION OF 2023

The past often works to own our present and our future because what has been gone unhealed and unaddressed. We tend to believe that if we simply move on, what was will fall away.

Yet, this thinking robs us of a beautiful opportunity and great expansion. The events in our lives are lessons, building blocks that teach us what we came here to learn, ways of being, our desires. Our experiences teach us contrast. It shows what we want and what we do not. In this understanding, we can go deeper and explore our needs spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically.

As 2023 winds down, we are turning our intentionality, focus, and desires to what is next. In every new chapter, there is something that must come to a close or be grown upon to take you to the next experience, the next level of where you want to be.

In doing so, there are often a few hard pills that you must swallow to get to that place. While growth is not the most comfortable thing we do, it is one of the most powerful. Today, you and I are taking a one-on-one deep dive into those hard pills and what to do about them so that you can build a life of accountability and self-authority, refusing to abandon your needs and desires, and find a space of stability that you simply haven’t had the tools to touch before now…
