Heart Mind Tuning

Thanks to #newyorkmagazine ! I have personally done this many times in this year!!! Have you done it?

#laotzu #laotzuquotes Every time I feel"busy,"I remember a lesson from my #mindfulness classes that confused me back then.... There was always a constant question: "What is the best meditation techniqueto be more efficient and productive?" The answer was: "Meditate more." I looked at teachersin disbelief: "But youdont understand, I don't have time to do all I have to do, so there's no way I can find more time to meditate!" Yet, I knew the answer will be the same: "Meditate more and all will be accomplished." When we are running around feeling overwhelmed, the best thing we can do is indeed stop and be stilllike the mountain. And from that stillness,we will reconnectto our Source and flow like the river. Because, instead of acting from a place of fear and scarcity, we willbe guided bypeace and ease. It's the forcing that wastes our time and energy. Forcing...and that wastes our life...

#valentinesday2021 #valentineday #loveday #lovedays... Special People On Valentine's Day, we think of people who have cheered and encouraged us, who go out of their way to be kind and caring, who have enriched our lives just by being themselves. By Joanna Fuchs

#newyearresolution #newyearresolutions #newyearresolution2021 #newyearintentions ... Are you happy? Whenever I have posed this question, there has been a long pause. Hardly ever, I got a quick response. You know why? Because we don't ask ourselves this question. We might gargle all reasons for happiness or unhappiness in our mind BUT we do not dare to ask it from ourselves that bluntly. Do you connect to what I am saying? If yes and you want to dive deeper with yourself, I am giving away a three part guide FREE to people on my email list and connections. Send me your email or join our private FB community to receive the guide.

#2021wishes #2021 #happynewyear2021 I feel there is a collective lesson from 2020: life is too short. If you want to do sth, change sth, feel different, don't postpone it!... Do it NOW! HAPPY NEW YEAR!

#selfcompassion #bewithwhatis Do you see that angel with those piercing eyes in this post looking straight at you and piercing your soul?... That is how I felt when I took this shot. I took a picture from a frame hanging on the wall of a haunted house in the ghost town of oatman. Amongst the dust, rust and old stuff crumbling around me, there was something about those eyes. It reminded me of how we can be haunted for years by our own tboughts, by feelings we do not process and carry the trauma forward. I know #2020life, #pandemiclife will have severe impact psychologically on us,kids and society even after it is over. Working on accepting things as they are can help us not only now but also in the long run. It is healing ourselves.

#2020isalmostover #2020isweird #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness ... This year is almost over. Your mental health matters. Hope everyone has found a way to cope with 2020.

#happyholidays2020 #merrychristmas2020 #holidayspirit This year, may your walls know joy, may the rooms hold your happiness, may you be healthy and feel that you can open every window of your house to embrace a new possibility!

#lifequotes #lifelessons This is what every year teaches us.

#leadership #trueleadership #trueleaders 80 million votes later makes one think: what is REALLY going on?

#electionstress #elections2020 #election2020 Change is part of life.... Changing the attitude towards change can be healthy for many of us including #potus when needed. I am not into tweeter but may be someone can tweet this quote from Buddha for him. I am even willing to test myself and offer him a complimentary session on the notion of be with what is no matter how challenging. Resisting change and standing in the way of it does no one good. How do you deal with change?

#anxietyrelief #anxietyawareness #cognitivebehavioraltherapy #mindfulnessbasedcognitivetherapy ... The picture of my beautiful niece, Lena with her amazing hair and eyes inspired me to think of what has given me anxiety over the years. I love her dearly and can not wait to see her in person past this COVID nightmare. I thought I am helping by volunteering to do the work or lead and may be it was out of my wanting to control things. I see how negative self talk is eating the soul of high achievers. Do you even notice how you talk to yourself? Change is the only constant in life. If we can not embrace that, life can be a living hell because it changes, weather we want it or not! So, how do you stop this cycle? No, you can not say: I will change. Because those words without building real awareness and taking action are just horsesh**!! For real! If you are serious about change, build awareness. What is it that you do out of these? When do you do it? Do NOT justify!! Justification is a TRAP we all fall into! Start with becoming aware of what needs to change!

#humanvalues #humanity #humanityfirst #dalailama #dalailamaquotes ... I will NOT forget the day after election 4 years ago. I could not watch TV due to my injury and after I saw Trump gaining momentum, I retired to bed. Hoping that morning will change the results. Morning came and he had won the election. I was teaching a class on how Mindfulness works in my kids' school that day and it felt like a funeral. I wrote a guided meditation on emotional healing post election that was published on Insight Timer but was not allowed to have the word:election. Too much hatred could be caused. I was told. It had such interesting reviews! Trump supporters hated it. Some did not even listen to the whole thing before writing a review! Patience is a virtue for learning. It took us a while to publish it on Amazon(technical glitch to price it right) and by that time, people had got over the #electionblues BUT my goal was to allow mostly people who voted for him to sit down and evaluate their human values. In the light of human values they honor( the mere fact of having money is NOT a value, FYI), will they still vote for him? The goal was an invitation to sit with our own values and evaluate where he stands as a choice for leading a country. I'm not sure it happend. 4 years later and 70 million who voted for him and may be or may be not beleived in his values. I am sharing that meditation again(link in bio). It seems that meditation might be even more valid now.

Whatever the result of this election will be, America has spoken loud and clear to me. This man, the current President connects with 67 million Americans so far. A man who lies with straight face. A man who said on Monday night in Wisconsin:... "This isn't about -- yeah, it is about me, I guess, when you think about it," Trump mused to the packed crowd. It is and has always been about him and him alone. What does that remind you of in case you voted for him? What are your values? Does he represent your values?

#election2020 #election #elections2020 #bidenharris2020 #november3rd... I try to sit with this quote BUT find it really hard. Find it really hard that I see obvious lack of #leadership. The first elements of serving as a leader are so lost. That may be lives would have been saved. May be this #covid19crisis would not be as crazy. May be there could be more understanding of #suffering, we, people are enduring. I have my own hopes for tomorrow. It is not a slam dunk for me BUT definitely feels like steering the ship in a storm in the right direction. I really hope.

#takecareofyourself #mindfulliving #mindfullife The simplest things are not always easiest to do.... Do you do these everyday?

#halloween I miss the excitement of Halloween and seeing all the creativity!! I don't miss the broken leg!... Hope everyone is enjoying their Halloween as much as possible. Happy Halloween

#happinessquotes #happiness Well being= Joyfulness Happiness= Feeling exuberant ... When you were 5 years old, how many moments of happiness you had? Many. You grew up. You got educated. Found a job. Got married. Had kids. How may moments of happiness do you have now? Do you spend your days thinking where is my happiness?

#carljung #carljungquotes #coachingworks Why does coaching work?... SKILLFUL coaching is ASKING you questions that you don't want to ask yourself! Coaching is taking you to places you don't want to go or you don't know how to go on your own! And those places are where you need to go most. Do you see how coaching works?

#lies For some obvious reason, presidential debates make me think of this quote. Lying takes effort. I can not imagine how much effort is required to BELEIVE ones' own lies.... Lying is a common form of deceptionstating something known to be untrue with the intent to deceive. In fact, it is among the most sophisticated accomplishments of the human mind. Electrical stimulationof the prefrontal cortex appears to improve our ability to deceive. This region of the brain may, among other things, be responsible for the decision to lie or tell the truth. In a study, it was found if we interrupted the functioning of the anterior prefrontal cortex, a person has fewer cognitive resources for evaluating the ethical implications of their actions; therefore they can concentrate on their deceptions. Consider the correlation between not thinking ethically and lying. If you value ethics, can you root for a lier? While it seems obvious, many people get tangled in religion or financial success or the like when deciding to choose a lier or not. Hopefully posing this naked question helps!!

I learned from #yogananda : Happiness depends to some extent upon external conditions, but chiefly upon conditions of the inner mind. If you have made up your mind to find joy within yourself, sooner or later you will find it. If you want to be sad, no one in the world can make you happy. But if you make up your mind to be happy, no one and nothing on earth can take that happiness from you. Happiness is a choice.... Sadness is a choice. Which one do you choose? What struggles do you have?

In this #newworldofwork, more than ever #leaders need to make #heartmindconnection. This is the biggest #leadershipdevelopment lesson anyone can have. If this notion is foreign to you, it is time for you to connect the dots and learn about this connection! #heartmindtuning... #leadershift #leaderSHIFT See more
