Here to Thrive ® | Self Help & Personal Development

Dr. Lindsay Weisner, and she is the co-author of a book with Selene Castrovilla called 10-Steps to Finding Happy which is due to be released on March 20th which is the United Nations International Day of Happiness.

Now this was recorded well before Coronavirus was even a thing. It’s amazing how things can turn on their heads! So some of our comments you may look at through a different lens now that we’re living with more uncertainty.

Lindsay is a psychologist who specializes in teenagers with suicidal ideation. We’ll talk a little bit more about that in here. Alongside that conversation though is one about what makes us happy? And why we aren’t necessarily as happy as we could be. Specifically we’ll touch on:

· How technology is interrupting our lives, and stopping us from being present in the here and now (news notifications anyone?)

· How perhaps we really are more stressed out these days

· How every generation has their “mess of garbage” to deal with

· How we are likely bringing more psychological baggage into our lives than previous generations

· How expectations of happiness can lead to disappointment

· And the importance of living an active over a passive life.

You can pre-order 10-Steps to happy before 20th March. But also remember, 20th March is United Nations International Day of Happiness. We need it this year...so spread so happy around dear people.

Dr. Lindsay Wesiners book 10-Steps to Happy is going to be released on 20th March. If you enjoyed her upbeat vibe, you can also listen to her podcast which is Neurotic Nourishment. If you want to track down Lindsay and learn more about her work, therapy etc. you can follow her at @PsychShinkMom, and she practices out of Hewlett New York.

This week I had the honor of interviewing Cassandra Bodzak. She is a Healthy Living Expert, a certified health & wellness coach, a meditation teacher, as well as cooking extraordinaire. She is an all around #lightmaker

Her work focuses on people feeling good from the inside out – which I am wholeheartedly on board with! She helps people live their happiest and healthiest lives, through taking care of their bodies and nourishing their souls.

She was on ABC’s the Taste and a regular contributor to Shape Magazine. She is also the Author of a soon to be released cookbook and self-care guide: Eat With Intention: Recipes and Meditations for a Life That Lights You Up.

In this episode we go deep. We had an awesome conversation. We cover:

• The common struggle women have with body image,
• The Well-Being Trifecta, and how Cassandra believes whole health isn't just about food,
• The importance of Self-Care and what that can look like,
• How Cassandra taught herself how to meditate via the internet (no expensive retreats here),
• How you can literally shower your body with appreciation and learn to love the skin you're in.

Cassandra can be found at her website: www.cassandrabodzak.com

Her book is called - Eat With Intention - and can be preordered now on Amazon.

“This experience that we’re having here is very, very, very strange. Consciousness itself, the fact that you and I can be aware of ourselves having this conversation. The most basic realities of this experience that we’re having are indescribably strange and odd. So that is also what we mean by spiritual. If you aren’t at some point smiling about how strange this whole thing is, you’re not paying attention.” – Rob Bell

This is an important, enlightening and super useful information. Becca Reed Smith is a Therapist & Mindset coach. She shares with us here her straightforward guidance, and she explains concepts that most of us find challenging, in very real and understandable ways.

We talk about a lot in this podcast, but some of the particulars include:

• Understanding that Fear is Normal
• How common it is to not feel good enough at times
• The importance of stepping out of our Comfort Zones when it comes to Fear + Self-Doubt
• Imposter Syndrome, and a discussion on the "who am I to ..." statement many of us play in our heads
• How once we feel safe and grounded, our options open up
• How stress can eventually lead us to feeling numb and that is our nervous system simply doing its job and trying to regulate the big emotions
• Cognitive dissonance - what it is, and how we can use it to our advantage
• And how our Doubting Dialogue often shows up in the form of "what if" questions and what we can do it quieten it
