1000x672_areyouwilling

Are you willing to read on to learn how to get your spouse, kids, friends, or clients to say YES more often? 

It’s very simple, let me show you how….

From now on, instead of telling, or even asking someone to do something, ask them if they are “willing.” 

For example:

“Hey kiddo, are you willing to do the dishes so I can start dinner?”

“Hey Babe, are you willing to take out the trash for me so I don’t get my hair wet in the rain?”

“Hey readers, are you willing to read on…….”  (See what I did there with that one? lol)

Commands, or questions that are disguised as commands often don’t work AND they put strain on your relationships.

When you ask someone if they “are willing” then you give them a choice in how they decide to act as a person.

It takes the focus OFF of the task, and puts it on the persons willingness to help and it’s FAR more effective in getting a YES! You might even get an enthusiastic HELL YES! 

Are you willing to share this with someone who might be struggling? Just share this page with them!

I don’t “grocery” shop anymore. I do go to the grocer but it’s for this or that… never “big” shopping. We use to go big shopping weekly and it was a $200 minimum.

Now, I get all of my nutrition from an amazing company that we buy directly from! It’s helped us lose weight and our kids are getting vitamins and minerals from food that they actually like to eat! Parenting win! lol

I get all of my skin care products from another amazing company that we buy directly from! Not only is it vegan, cruelty free, and healthy… but my skin has never looked for felt better! Even in this harsh winter, I’m not suffering from dry cracked skin! Yay!

I get all of my hair products from yet another amazing company that we buy directly from! Not to brag, but I get compliments daily on my hair and while that makes me feel really good, it feels even better knowing that I am using vegan, cruelty free, healthy products that don’t contain garbage!

I get all of my cleaning products from you guessed it… another amazing company that we buy directly from! I love cleaning with all natural oils that don’t contain toxic ingredients that cause asthma, inflammation, and a host of other disease and illnesses!

So yea… I still go to the grocery to grab a few things… but I don’t get anything back for shopping there!

All the other companies pay us back just for buying things we’d use anyway, it’s delivered right to our door, and I feel good knowing that the choices are healthy for my family!

So the next time a friend says they are starting their own business, try their products, let them talk to you about it, or even host a party for them! You never know, you may end up becoming a member and saving on your own products, or even making money!

They are doing something healthy for their family, they are saving trips to the store, and they are building a residual income for themselves! It’s a win-win-win!

static1.squarespaceDo you know the difference between self care and self medicating? If not, that could be the reason your “self care” isn’t working!

Self care is preventative. Self medicating occurs during emotional crisis.

Self medicating happens when you’ve become exhausted, resentful, or upset. You’ve taken care of everyone else and no one cared back. Now you are “rewarding” yourself with something destructive because you are pissed off, sick of it all, or determined to give a giant middle finger to the world as pay back and you feel completely justified in doing so!

I’ve been there too. There is a better way.

Self care happens BEFORE you give every ounce of yourself. In fact, it happens before you are even the slightest bit uncomfortable. And if you do it preventatively, you are FAR less likely to ever self medicate again.

Self medicating is trying to make yourself temporarily feel better at the expense of your health or well being. It’s like trying to fill your cup with an eye dropper while allowing everyone else to drink out of it! There’s never enough!

These are some examples of self medicating especially when done in excess:

  • Gambling
  • Drinking
  • Drug use
  • Sexual deviance
  • Spending money aka retail therapy
  • Going outside of your relationship
  • Stealing / Lying
  • Eating

If there is a chance that you’ll feel terrible after, you could get arrested, you could lose your job, relationship, or integrity, you are self medicating.

Self care is identifying your needs and meeting them in positive and healthy ways. It’s keeping your cup full and allowing others to have whatever flows over the edge. 

Some examples of self care:

  • Meditating
  • Yoga or exercise
  • Taking a walk
  • Deep breathing / fresh outdoor air
  • Visiting people you love
  • Calling a lifeline: friend, coach, parent, etc.
  • Body work: massage, facial, mani/pedi
  • Taking a bath
  • Trying something new / adventure
  • Smiling (totally under-rated)
  • Snuggles with a pet or loved one
  • Cup of tea
  • Reading a book / learning something new

When you take care of yourself, you teach others how to care for you too! You’ll feel better about any challenges that come your way, and you give other people permission to care for themselves as well… especially your kiddos who are watching and modeling everything you do! 

Self care is not a luxury, it’s mandatory if you want to live your best, healthiest, and happiest life!

What is your favorite thing to do for self care? Comment below and let me know!

Did you know that your brain was not designed to be quiet? It was designed to process…

“Why don’t animals have butt cracks? Should I punish my kid for lying? What should I make for dinner tonight? What the hell is that mark on my cheek??? Did she really just look at me that way? Crap I forgot to stop at the post office again!”

Have you ever noticed that your brain is always working? If it wasn’t…. well…. you know… you’d be dead.

So yea, you are NOT a failure if you can’t meditate. In fact, I bet you CAN actually meditate, and you probably have, you just don’t realize it!

You know those times when you are so deeply present with something? That’s meditation!!

For me, it’s painting rocks…. the world could end while I’m painting and I wouldn’t even notice. I’m so deep into my painting that nothing else phases me. I’m completely relaxed and shut everything else out… and it’s effortless. For a close friend of mine… it’s eating! lol

So if sitting in full lotus with your hands on your knees doesn’t work for you…. try relaxing your brain into a mundane yet fulfilling activity such as painting… or whatever works for you! 

Your mind is doing exactly what it’s supposed to do… analyze your world, assess risk, and create safety plans. We don’t have dinosaurs trying to kill us anymore, but our brain is still watching for the danger! It’s trying to process a threat that is no longer credible… which is boring so your brain needs to create some drama in the form of worry, anxiety, fear, nervousness, etc!

Give your brain something to do instead such as mantra: repeating a word or phrase over and over, or by going deep into the activities that you enjoy!

See? Meditation is actually pretty easy after all! Again, your not silencing your mind, your just giving it something to do while you relax! 

Hope you have a great week… I’m off to NYC for a college tour with my “baby.” Wow. I blinked and she’s 17. It happens… hug your kiddos and cherish each moment!
