Episode 100: How to Simmer Down Your Negative Inner Voice

Published: Oct. 3, 2023, 8:30 a.m.

Sonia C. had a bit of a hiccup at the airport, but she was so tired that her inner barking dog was too subdued to freak out. In this situation, it took Sonia C. 90 minutes to deplane and nearly 2 hours in traffic to finally go home. Instead of getting anxious, frustrated, or disappointed, she just accepted her fate. You might have a habit of doing X whenever Y goes wrong, but is that your choice or is that just your irrational barking dog taking over? Sonica C. decided to consciously choose her reaction this time and what a difference did it make.\\xa0

This week\\u2019s theme is about: Reprogram your barking dog reactions.\\xa0

Push yourself out of your old self and relive a new self. [14:45]\\xa0
Sonia C. got a \\u2018closested\\u2019 intuitive that was almost ashamed to be getting a reading. [24:45]
If you deny a part of yourself, you\\u2019re also blocking people off from true connection to the real you. [28:00]\\xa0
You never really know what someone else is going through. [32:30]\\xa0
Tool of the week. [32:55]

Question of the week. [38:35]

If you\\u2019re known to overreact or even get bored in certain situations, try to break the pattern and practice mindfulness during these tough situations. Give other people the space they need to perhaps freak out or take control. It\'s time to do something different and see what happens to the energy in the room when you do. Sonia T. gets really critical of herself when she isn\\u2019t the most structured or organized person out there. She realizes she can either beat herself up or this can be a place for growth.\\xa0

Creativity is very messy. Sometimes, you simply can\\u2019t be your most organized self when rooted in this process. Sonia C. notices that Sonia T. can be too hard on herself during the creative \\u2018unplanned\\u2019 process, but things being unplanned in itself is part of the creative process! You almost can\\u2019t have one without the other. Instead of punishing yourself, ask questions on how you can work with yourself. Maybe you just need to set a 15 minute \\u2018get organized\\u2019 timer and then call it a day. Take action on something where it A) doesn\\u2019t derail your day and B) helps you move to a more compassionate place.\\xa0

Tool of the Week: Never assume you know someone. Discover them first.\\xa0
