Season 1, Episode 12 - In 2006, a pastor introduced the idea of a 21-day fast from complaining. Over 6.2 million people have taken the challenge. Those who have taken the challenge have found the joys and challenges of learning to live a complaint-free life.
In today's episode, we look at how easy it is to fall into complaining and what we can do to live a healthier and happier life. We look at the why of complaining and how complaining is often about seeking validation and attention - two things we all need. But complaining raises our cortisol and blood pressure and the more we do it the more our brain looks for things to complain about.
Today will we also look at: A wellness practice of the week, What is making this week good, and a Mindfulness Meditation.
Today's Mindfulness Meditation comes from Matthew 5:
14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
