Negative thinking is normal. However, if this way of thinking becomes incessant, it can lead to depression and self-destructive behavior like addictions, derailing us from what we want most in life. At minimum, negative thinking saps our energy, erodes our self-confidence and can put us in a bad mood. Certainly, many would agree that our thoughts come and go so quickly that it’s seems impossible to notice them, but with awareness and an attitude of self-compassion, we can redirect our negative thoughts to more positive ones.

In the end, dealing with this person leaves them feeling confused, exploited and abused. Despite the fact that victims may be intelligent, resourceful...

So what, then, is the appropriate amount of worry/fear? If you’ve ever had a time when you’ve taken the practical choice – that’s fear. If you’ve been in a state of mistrust – that’s fear. If you’ve doubted yourself or your ability to do something – that’s fear. Fear is a natural and necessary response - and it serves to protect us.

Here's The Thing...Lauren Cardinale, CMS-CHt, FIBH, CPCChanging our Love/Hate Relationship with MONEYMoney is a LOADED topic – we love it and hate it – and we rarely talk about it. It’s one of those taboo topics, right? We’re ashamed if we don’t have it, and we’re ashamed if we admit to wanting it, or ashamed discuss it if we have it. We live in fear of not having enough, or of losing it if we have it. We’re supposed to know what to do and be great at making it and investing it, but no one really teaches us anything about it – AND we’re not supposed to talk about it? It...

Here's The Thing...Lauren Cardinale, CMS-CHt, FIBH, CPCExercises for More AbundanceTalking about steps we can take for more abundance in our lives - it's more than a game of chance—it's about creating the life you want. Abundance occurs to different people in different ways – It’s not an “it” – it’s not an achievement, and it’s not a place. It’s not a competition – you cannot have more than your neighbor - or have everything - and automatically feel abundant. It’s about BEING more, and it’s desirable because it’s your true nature. Stop limiting your abundance or how much you deserve!

Here's The Thing...Lauren Cardinale, CMS-CHt, FIBH, CPCThe Power of IntentionHow often do you set your intention? When do you do so? The power of intention can be effective in every thought, word and deed. When your mind is focused on intention, AND you speak it, what do you think happens with the thought process? It changes in the direction of the goal. The power of intention relieves so much of the seemingly impossible work of striving to fulfill desires by sheer force of will. Listen for ways to use your intention to create more of what you want in your life.
