In today’s episode we look at how to manage toxic people and situations through a mindful lens. We also look more deeply at situations that you might not recognise as toxic or harmful to our wellbeing and what to do. I am taking a short break from the Live Mindfully Podcast. The content will continue to be available and I will be back in the future with special topics, guest speakers and to record a Mindful Minute.If you have a topic you would love to get my perspective on, please submit it here: https://lorimoore.co/podcast/ask-for-advice/Let’s get started.Episode resources:Maya Angelou and Oprah Interview on Forgiveness: https://www.oprah.com/omagazine/maya-angelou-interviewed-by-oprah-in-2013/5Thank you so much for listening.

Brene Brown, renowned Shame Researcher, has a wonderful boundary mantra: "say yes to discomfort and no to resentment".In today's episode I am sharing my experience with the silent boundary method. This method was something I started about 5 years ago and it has worked miracles in my relationships, especially the one I have with myself.To achieve the Silent Boundary Method, we need to normalise three things:1) Saying no without justification and extra details2) Creating space before giving an answer IE "I'll need to check some things and if it's a yes, I'll come back to you"3) Letting the other person have their response - disappointment, anger, upset; without taking it on board ~ this is by far the hardest, but if we learn to accept and expect this, we won't see other people's response as proof that we can't set boundaries.Tune in now to hear this week's episode ♡If this episode has resonated, tune in to EP 34 that I recorded on Boundaries, Stress and Wholehearted Living.

In today’s episode I am sharing Part 2 of The Power of Crying. When we Release, we Heal; with a particular focus on why some of us cry more than others and what drives this behaviour.As it turns out this was not an easy question to answer, with a range of conflicting research and ideas delivered by Psychotherapists, Clinical Psychologists and Biochemists. I have compiled it all here though and hopefully have made some sense out of it for you.As always, the best expert of you is YOU!

According to Psychology Today (link) attaining happiness is a global pursuit. With researchers stating that people from every corner of the world rate happiness as more important than any other desirable personal outcome, including wealth and getting into heaven.In today's episode I share 3 philosophies on happiness and which one is the most effective at reaching our desired outcome - genuine, long-lasting happiness.Let's dive in!Episode resources:University of Pennsylvania - Authentic Happiness (article)Mary Oliver: The Summer DayWho made the world?Who made the swan, and the black bear?Who made the grasshopper?This grasshopper, I mean —the one who has flung herself out of the grass,the one who is eating sugar out of my hand,who is moving her jaws back and forth instead of up and down —who is gazing around with her enormous and complicated eyes.Now she lifts her pale forearms and thoroughly washes her face.Now she snaps her wings open, and floats away.I don't know exactly what a prayer is.I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down into the grass, how to kneel down in the grass,how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields,which is what I have been doing all day.Tell me, what else should I have done?Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon?Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?Thank you so much for listening.
