042: Values Beliefs Gratitude and Spirituality
Spiritual Awakening - Expanding Times Fireside Chats
Our values and beliefs colour our vision and perception of the world. They determine our actions or inaction. Thoughts affect feelings. Feelings affect behaviour. Behaviour produces results (or the lack thereof). It all begins with our thoughts, since we have to accept a thought for it to become a belief. And a belief is simply a thought we keep thinking with enough emotion and intensity to make it stick. ...

038: Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Spiritual Awakening - Expanding Times Fireside Chats
Today's podcast covers the 'thorny' topic of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome! Although I'm sure many people must have suffered from it in times long gone by, as there was no diagnosis it undoubtedly went undetected or unidentified. So to bring some clarity to the topic, I invited a wonderful lady, Margaret Lambert, who you may have heard me interview before talking about the Emotional Freedom Technique, to come back and share her expertise. She was a long-time sufferer of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue in the 1990's which then propelled her to write a highly acclaimed book...

033: Addiction
Spiritual Awakening - Expanding Times Fireside Chats
When I asked today's invited guest, Sahaja Coventry what qualifies her to talk so knowledgeably about, and work so intimately with, addictions, she said without hesitation "My addictive personality!" Go figure! Well at least she's honest...I think we all have an addictive personality in some way, shape or form if we're truthful, and it can get quite obstreperous if most of us are not vigilant, discipled and hyper aware of why we're doing what we are doing and what feelings our addictions to even seemingly innocent pursuits, such as reading, shopping or maybe even gossiping are trying to...
info_outlineI watched a really interesting movie the other day that really explains vitality from a holistic perspective ~ a view that is characterized by the treatment of the whole person, taking into account mental and social factors, rather than just the symptoms of a disease. So Karen and I decided to give you a resumé of said movie "Vitality" as found a lot of value in the content that the director had to share.
So what do we mean by vitality? Several dictionary definitions explain it as: the
continuation of a meaningful or purposeful existence, or having the energy to do whatever you want, emotionally, physically and mentally with a zest for life
So in today's podcast we ask you to look at how you're living - Our body has daily energy needs, and provided we extract enough energy from the food we eat, from our exercise, from the air we breathe and from the rest that we receive, we can live a vital life.
The global healthcare system is broken yet we as patients are taught that it can fix us. It doesn't teach us what to do to heal ourselves. Rather, it encourages us to do whatever we feel like: eat whatever, drink whatever and then go to the doctor to be healed.
The body, mind, emotional life, interpersonal relationships and spiritual life are inextricably interwoven and only when all of these are balanced, can we lead a vital, healthy life. While modern medicine does remarkable things with trauma, it's not the solution to vitality and health and we as individuals must take responsability for our own wellness.
Doctors in the USA now have to see a patient every 7 - 10 minutes to be profitable and in that time, all they have time for is to make a diagnosis and write prescriptions. And a shocking 90% of doctor visits are stress-related yet there is no time to get into why people are sick and treat the CAUSES and not simply the symptoms.
In this call, we delve into the four pillars of wellness ~ diet, exercise, sufficient good sleep and mindset.
As usual we run way over time so this constitutes Part 1 of Vitality.
Tune in to Part 2 next week!
