Not just persistence Exercise get your endorphins going. It can feel like the least important. You can’t pour from an empty cup. Exercise: put your big girl panties on and just do it. Do the things to get your heart-rate up. Release the chemicals to keep going. The idea of yourself as your home and needing to take care of yourself. The way your house looks is a representation of how you’re feeling Find your own rhythm: find what works for you Growth mindset What shoulds that you could let go of to become your best self. Release the guilt for taking a nap at 2pm in the afternoon There is an intuition muscle that we need to flex, an internal knowing we need to pay attention to. The idea of having an intuition muscle How do you wake that muscle up: Start by paying attention. Start by paying attention and remember what you didn’t like. Remember what didn’t work for you. Acknowledge what you’re actually feeling The lively Show You can’t flex your intuition muscle Fear is a signal that there is something for us to lean into and learn from. What are your core values? The creative work of aligning Why does creativity fail? Fear of looking stupid. Fear of looking like I don’t know what I’m talking about. Creativity is not done in a vacuum You can’t logic yourself out of this. You can’t logic yourself into being happy Forcing = bad Flowing = good In life logic is often the wrong answer You just have to figure out ways to make it work You don’t know what you’re doing, but do it anyway. No one knows what they’re doing when they start a business You don’t know how to write a book until you write a book It’s ok to not know and do it anyway Stand in your power You must be hopeful and optimistic Sometimes optimism is “We will try again tomorrow” Real optimism is that we’re going to keep going Real life optimism What seat is your intuition in? Intuition is the driver The more cool stuff you do, the more cool stuff you have to say no to. Failure is like a burpee Each failure is another lesson, and then it becomes my responsibility to share that lesson. The better job I do of collaborating and making space for other voices the more successful I can be. She had just as many bad days as you did, to get where she is, so if she can do it, it means you can do it to. Hope PTSD It’s not going to turn out the way you think it will, but keep going anyway. Don’t lose the wonder of your 18 year old self. Rumi tells us to “Cultivate the witness of our own experience”. There is so much value in doing the things you don’t like doing. Sherpa mentality Once you learn something it becomes your responsibility to share it. If you love it, you care about, it becomes your responsibility to share it. I’m just a little sensitive today Be brave enough to say hey, I’m a little sensitive today. Pause before you respond None of us have any idea what we’re doing. The joke is that none of us know what we’re doing

In this episode, Alisha interviews Andra West LeBauer on self-care, Mindfulness and learning to express boundaries.Check out the website for this show to access the mediation Andra made for us to go along with this show. Episode 29 Notes:Sponsor: Triad Local FirstJoin us in our Yoke and Abundance Facebook Group -&gt;Here are some of the topics we touch on in this episode. Notes:Mindful life coachBoundaries coachHelping women have deep meaningful relationships around deep meaningful relationships and self care. Self-care beyond the bubble Bath: Put an hour of time on your calendar that’s not scheduled. Take a napSelf-care is understanding what your needs are and doing practices that help you get in touch with what your needs are. The pace of life is breakneck. You have to be mindful to not work and take time to do nothingI get to choose myself firstThe unplug box: Take your deceives, put them in the box and set them aside. Choose not to check messages and facebook. Prioritize being a present person for the people in your life. If we don’t advocate for space and presence with our loved ones it will pull us in. A lot of us don’t know what our boundaries are. You can express boundaries in a loving and compassionate way. The Universe puts the work in front of usHow do we express what we know out into the world. What’s in the way, is the way. Empaths don’t always say what they need to say. In expressing options there are a couple options 1st: You do nothing 2nd: Passive aggressive boundary 3rd: reactive boundary 4th: Proactive boundary when we are able to say ahead of time, this is important to me, or this is coming up for me. When you have a person you don’t have a loving friendship with that you don’t like or get along with, what do you do if they are pushing your buttons? The person becomes the path. An opportunity to practice. You can let other people see you exactly as you are, and those that are meant to be a part of your path will stay. You can’t live your life hoping to please everyone and hoping that everyone is going to like you. Let people say what they need to say even if it’s wrong. Let people be who they are, and be who you areRemember to start over every morning.Don’t be somewhere else when your life is happening.
