Episode 37

Welcome to the Healing Pod!

This week we have technical issues of Jess’ mic dying in the middle of the episode, but it’s held together with duct tape and super glue so we’re all good! Except for how I realize it cut off the end of her recording so where suddenly what she says may not match what she’s saying in the video…just ignore that. You’re lucky I didn’t try to splice something in with sock puppets.

We explored the impact of tiny moments in our lives. The ones that ruin our day or the ones that make our day. These tiny things are prime to increase our awareness of and monitor our interpretation of in order to actually support our own mental health rather than letting them derail our whole day.

Notice when the bad ones are spinning. Take a step back and breathe or calm yourself. Check out the moment and see if it’s fixable, if it’s true, if it matters. Put it in its place and make sure it’s not distorting your view of yourself or your world. And start looking for or creating some good ones to balance it out. This will take practice, starting with just noticing and labeling what is going on, but we can all get there!

Join us online for #MicroMomentMission and share with us your moments that you have intentionally created or tuned into in order to color your day a little more balanced and healthier for you. Practice gratitude, positivity towards others, noticing awe or beauty.

No saving the world here, just taking a part of it and seeing the positive light that makes it worth continuing to put the effort in.

As always, thank you to the wonderful Miki Anderson for our intro and outtro music. She can be found under Pax Minerva on Apple Music and is all around a wonderful human being.
