Episode Description
Following up on our previous show - "It's your Fault!" This episode looks at taking responsibility for our thoughts, our feelings and our behaviour. If we stop implicating and blaming others, what happens then? Importantly, how do we do stop blaming and start owning and taking responsibility for our self. We have all encountered people who blame who they are and their circumstances in life on their parents, the whole family, their education, their exes and who ever else gets caught in the crossbow of blame. Here is something we need to know - as long as we blame others, then we are powerless to change anything. The person, people or event that we blame is the place that holds all the power. Being an adult is not easy, it means responsibilities , and it means owning our story, our real story and not the lies we deceive our self with. This is worth considering, moving into being a Grown-up takes work and awareness but not doing it leaves us as an angry and unhealthy Groan-up.
Things Worth Considering
Thursday at 5 PM Pacific Time/8 PM Eastern Time on VoiceAmerica Empowerment Channel
This is a show about connections. Connections to your self, your spirit, your feelings and your story. One of the most powerful healing tools we have is our connections. Connect to your intuition and explore your AHA moments. Discover how we get in our own way and how we can overcome obstacles to move on. How we think, what we think, what we believe, and our attitudes define how we experience our life. The fascinating idea that we shape our reality to what we believe it should be, in our minds. How we connect to our families, our aging family members and slowly we become caregivers, not caretakers.
Embracing the reality of aging, not into senior citizens but living the archetypal Elder, the Wise One. Living the Spiritual idea of being of service but not being someone’s servant. As we explore the many roads of the human journey with our guests, we will connect to each other by embracing many of the mysteries of life and there we arrive at things worth considering.
