In this week's episode, Kathy reflects on love and how it's so important to wed the feeling with the deed; how meaningful it is to have our intentions align with our acts of love. We are all here to make meaning in this world and mindfulness isn't just about noticing and observing the thoughts & emotions within ourselves but is also about authentically and mindfully relating to the people around us. 

In this episode, Kathy shares how meditation practice can feel like puppy training; how it’s so important to practice consistency and discipline but equally kind and patient.

Find your personal anchors and use them to ground you back into the present moment.

In this episode, Kathy shares about self-love and how its not just about being happy or doing a checklist of things that make you so. It's about setting a high standard for yourself; giving yourself the permission to speak loudly, to take up space, to be honest & open about who you are, to not be afraid of what people have to say for it. At the end of the episode, she shares one of her favourite affirmation practices that is part of the Mindfully Me Meditation Card Deck. 

In this episode, Kathy shares some her insights and lessons learned through pottery. Much like mindfulness, how being present and grounded in the here and now has helped her appreciate the beauty of clay work. In the process also learning not to be moulded by clay but to stay anchored in herself, mustering the self confidence needed to hold the calm in the eye of a storm.

In this episode, Kathy shares how mindfulness allows us to tap into more happiness by intentionally choosing to express love and gratitude. Love is the most beautiful when it is expressed and in doing so we can shift out of any negativity spiral we may find ourselves in. 

Our body is innately intelligent and doing the work of finding balance for us but sometimes can go out of whack when we don’t pay attention to our accessible resources.
