"Thoughts create things" isn't just some woo-woo metaphysical concept, it's a fact based in science and psychology.Thoughts = feelings = actions = experiences"What you focus on grows" is supported by neuroscience and the concept of neuroplasticity that says neurons that fire together, wire together to create thoughts that are more automatic. How do we change our mindset for a more positive life?1. GratitudeHelps us recognize the positive things about our lives.2. AffirmationSpeaking to ourselves kindly as if we're talking to a friend helps rewire our mindset.3. Taking Care of Your BodyThere's a ton of evidence that supports the mind-body connection. Eating well, sleeping well, exercising and stay hydrated support not just a healthy body but a positive mind too.4. Life AuditWhat you put in, you get out. If you put junk in your mind, you'll get junk out of your mind. If you put positive things into your mind, you'll have a positive mind.How do you rewire your mindset?

We experience energy everyday in our lives. When you're at a party and someone's presence "lights up the room" or when a friend says that they're "fine" but you can sense that they aren't. The energy you put into the world is either helping you experience what you desire or repelling it away. Consider going to your boss to ask for a raise, if you show up feeling small and insecure will that impact their response? Would their response feel different if you showed up with positivity and confidence?There are 3 things we should be mindful of when it comes to energy.1. ConsumptionWhat are you bringing in through all of your 5 senses? The things you eat, watch, listen to, etc.2. SurroundingsThe people and places we surround ourselves with are either lifting our energy or depleting it. 3. ActivitiesNotice how activities like dancing feel versus binge watching TV, very different energy.✨ 5 High Vibe Habits for Raising Your Vibration ✨1. DeclutterNot just your space but your entire life. Do a life audit to assess what's raising your vibration and what's lowering it. Use that information to set new boundaries and shift your focus.2. MovementMotion = Emotion. Emotions are Energy in motion. Raise your energy by moving your body.3. NutritionNotice how some foods make you feel uplifted and bright while others make you feel heavy and dense. Welcome in more foods that make you vibrate higher.4. Positive Perspective PlaylistRoad trips and gym sessions alike require a curated playlist to keep us amped up. Use your PPP to raise your vibration anytime you hit a slump.5. MindsetThe way you think influences the way you feel. The only way to have a positive life is with a positive mindset.

I recently celebrated 10 years of teaching in the self care, self healing, spirituality and self development worlds. While reflecting on everything I've learned in this last decade, I came up with 10 of my most valuable lessons.1. The importance of the mind-body-spirit connection. You cannot be well in one without also being well in the others. 2. The importance of a morning routine, the first 10 minutes of your day set the tone for your entire day. The quality of your days = the quality of your life. A good nighttime routine lays the foundation for a good morning routine. 3. Your Brain is NOT your friend. Your brain is wired for survival not to help you thrive. Working on your mindset is essential for success. 4. Micro habits and micro goals help us build motivation and confidence over time. Setting goals that are too big cause us to quit early when progress doesn't happen the way we think it should. 5. "I'll be happy when..." aka the arrival fallacy prevents us from finding fulfillment in life. Find fulfillment by practicing gratitude. 6. Emotions are a range, you can't go from despair to joy. Emotions are like a ladder you slowly climb. 7. "You can't pour from an empty cup", except you do, probably too often. What's in your cup spills out into every area of your life. When you are frustrated, stressed, overwhelmed, anxious, etc that's what you pour into your relationships, your career, your home, etc.8. Your purpose doesn't have to be finding a cure for cancer or saving every animal in a shelter. Being a source of positivity creates a ripple effect into the world. 9. Your energy attracts EVERYTHING. 10. Your intuition is the key to the life you're meant to live. Stay tuned as we dive deeper into the above topics (and more) in upcoming episodes of the Live Life Extraordinary Podcast.

You can hustle your way to your goals but then feel burnt out when you get there, then what's the point? You can achieve success while you're stuck in stories of not being good enough but then your success doesn't feel like it's enough, then what was the point?It's important in life to not just achieve our goals and be successful but to have fulfillment as well. There are 4 core pillars that I've discovered in the last decade of running a business that have helped me feel fulfilled:Self CareEverywhere you go, there you are. Everything that is within you spills out of you into every area of your life. If you're stressed, anxious, overwhelmed, etc. That's what you pour into your career, relationships, hobbies, etc.Self HealingThe stories you tell yourself are at the start of every action that you take. Healing those old stories will help you show up more confidently in every area of your life.Spirituality Your spirituality is connected to your trust, your intuition, your gratitude, the energy you emit and attract and your overall manifestation power.Sustainability in Goals + ActionsIt isn't what we do occasionally that matters it's what we do consistently that matters most. Having smaller, more achievable goals helps us build confidence and motivation over time.Want to stay updated on future episodes like this one? Subscribe to the podcast here!Have a question?
