Moment-Is Blog http://www.familyguidancesystem.com/blog 7 Ways to Decrease Your Stress - NOW http://www.familyguidancesystem.com/blog/7-ways-to-decrease-your-stress-now Do you have a tremendous amount of mind chatter that goes on beneath the surface?  Many people have self talk conversations that are negative abusive statements such as “you should”, “why did you do that” and  “what is wrong with you?”  These can lead to feelings of stress and overwhelm as we try and quiet the mind.   Wouldn’t it be nice to speak with gentleness and kindness to yourself? To be loving and respectful of all you say and do. 

Do you know how to steer your internal conversations onto the right track? I have outlined 7 questions to ask yourself  to help you get grounded and mindful of what is happening in the present moment.   Take a couple of minutes and ask yourself these questions.

Do you hate it? When you think of your body, do you think of the physical appearance or the entirety of what your body does for you?

 In today’s society, when people talk about their body the conversation usually revolves around the physical attributes that make up their body i.e. skin, body type, hips, stomach, thighs, arms etc. When listening to the media or even conversations amongst people, there is often frustration about how the body looks as well as how it is letting us down.  
 
What can we do to be in a better relationship with our body? It is no different than if we wanted to build a better relationship with a friend – we need to spend time with it, acknowledge it, appreciate it and take care of it.

The Monday on the third week into the New Year has been coined “Blue Monday”.
 
 It is known as the most depressing day of the year. Why? Because it is Monday, the weather is dreary, the days are darker and most people have dropped their New Year’s resolutions by this time.

Sometimes, it is hard to keep upbeat and positive when things are conspiring against you.

 

]]> Mon, 17 Jan 2011 00:00:00 PST 5 Steps to Success in 2011 http://www.familyguidancesystem.com/blog/5-steps-to-success-in-2011  Many of us approach the New Year with Resolutions that are aimed at having us live our best life. We resolve to do things differently and embark on setting up Resolutions to put us back on the road to a healthier way of being. 

 
Unfortunately the statistics show that 90% of us are not good at keeping our resolutions. Why is this? What can we do about it?
 
How do you feel when you break an agreement with yourself? I know when I break my commitments to myself, I lose trust in me. 
 
Over the past couple of weeks I made some observations about new years’ resolutions PAST to determine what got in the way of accomplishing them and what I could have done differently.   

I have identified 5 key steps for being successful in 2011.

 The expectations from society, friends, family and ourselves can be crazy making. 
 
Have you ever experienced times that you are thrown in the company of family or acquaintances that push your buttons and make you want to scream?
 
Do you find that you sometimes react poorly to these situations?
