Even when we start our day with the best of intentions, it's so easy for our thoughts to run wild... so wild that we may not even notice we've begun using language that sounds more *negative-Nancy* rather than friendly.

In this meditation, we’re invited to take a step back and reconnect to the natural rhythm of our breath, our heart beat, and our *native* language of compassion and understanding—the language that nurtures our mind and body.

Whatever top biggest problems you’re tackling in your life right now, know that you’re not alone. Someone, somewhere, in another part of the world is going through a similar challenge.

What would you say to this individual to ease their pain?

This is the *friendly* inner dialogue we can begin to cultivate the more we meditate ;)

We have so many options these days to either "entertain" us or to "distract" us.

From scrolling social media, binging TV, binging the news, binging on snacks, eating out, retail therapy...

And the reason we do these things and the reason for anything we do is... to satisfy 6 Basic Human Needs, which we'll cover in this episode.

When life seems dull or boring and like a repeat of yesterday, we look for inputs and activities that EXCITE us and make us feel ALIVE.

And...

When life gets overwhelming where we have TOO much going on, we look for inputs and activities that calm us or numb us so we don't have to think so much and so we can escape from reality... even if just for a while.

Many of these activities fall under the umbrella of "distractions"...

and when left unchecked where we can't say NO to them... they become addictions.

In this episode we have a chat about

• the ULTIMATE distraction to rule them all... based on Einstein's advice.

• 3 distractions I tried to quit cold turkey and what helped me cut my ties with them

• A riddle for you to solve ;)

and...

• the million dollar question that helps us access love anytime, anywhere. Because... We. are. love.

Namaste ❤️
