 Hello friends, Ever feel like you're having 'one of those days?' Maybe even one of those weeks, months, or even a year + withstanding a global pandemic? Yeah, like that. Me too. At one time or another we all hit a low point; with energy, health, relationship, work, whatever it is. We reach a point where we know deep in our being 'something's gotta change.' 'But HOW?' is usually the next question immediately followed by all the excuses why things can't change due to things out of our control. Feeling me here? So how do we begin to regain a semblance of control over our lives? We change our state. The Formula for Changing Your StateHere's a simplified formula to change your state. Grab your journal and a pen to write down your thoughts & use it to refer back to anytime you need a reminder. Positive Intention Write down your intention framed in a positive perspective. (Ie: I don't want to feel exhausted all the time. Flip it positive to; I am full of vibrant energy.) Elevated emotion Choose the emotion you wish to embody. Breathe deeply Breathe in the emotion you choose to embody; exhale the energy that keeps you stuck. (ie: Inhale vibrancy; exhale exhaustion) Move mindfully Stretch your arms up over your head in V shape with feet firmly planted on the earth. Stay in this position for two minutes. Get Some Practice!Practice this each time you find yourself stuck in a mood, a rut, in a bad way. Practice leads to skillful ability to reframe a situation to regain agency over your energy and emotions. You begin to author your life, not be led astray by whatever thought & corresponding emotion rises to the surface. This is the path to empowerment and living a life by design that you choose.
