"Leading the Chickens"

Why is movement so important? Our capacity to think and feel is supported in large part by the neural hardware and software in our brain that creates our ability to move and perceive. By developing one, we develop the other. This is why mind-body traditions such as mediation, yoga, martial arts and dance have been around for thousands of years. It's part of why movement matters, even in a world where many of us don't need to move to put dinner on the table. On today’s episode, Tony Wechsler and Pooja Kanth are going to discuss "Mastering Your Mind Through Movement."

In a flock of chickens, the leader is the dominant bird, or alpha chicken, that establishes the pecking order and leads the flock. The pecking order is a natural behavior that helps maintain order and stability. This is usually based on rankings that emerge from squabbles over food. So what does that have to do about life? Can we learn to be a leader and become the person who not only leads, but also enlightens others?

Once upon a time, in a land, far far away.... when you hear those words being said, you know that you are about to hear a story. Stories are one of the best ways to not only communicate your message, but to catch people's attention. As you listen to the words when a story is told, you can feel an incredible connection. We all have incredible stories to tell. They may be from our own life, or the lives of others, and those we come in contact with. On today's podcast, Tony Wechsler and Natalia Nutting are going to discuss, "Incredible Stories for Incredible Lives."  Natalia can be reached on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NataliaNuttingStoryteller Or her website: https://www.natalianutting.com/ As always, you are invited to join the Strive to Thrive Facebook group for a supportive community.... ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/strivetothrivepage⁠⁠⁠⁠    BTW...If you love this episode, please take a screenshot, share it on your Facebook story and tag me @TonyWechsler  And remember to download the eBook, Strive to Thrive at ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://tonywcoaching.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠  

Emotional healing happens when you can acknowledge, accept, and process difficult emotions or experiences. This process looks different for everyone. For example, a wounded inner child can create emotional difficulties for you throughout your life. These challenges can affect your relationship with other people, with addiction or obsession, and with your sense of self-worth. On today’s episode, Tony Wechsler and Ana-Maria Georgieva are going to discuss, "Healing Your Emotional Wounds."  You may recall Ana-Maria from her previous episode, "Following Your Dreams and Your Fears."

Personal growth encourages a mindset of continuous learning. It allows you to expand your knowledge, develop new skills, and explore your potential.

There’s really not much language in our culture for a conversation about energy and boundaries. It’s not something that’s generally acknowledged or understood, yet more and more people are becoming sensitive to energy and looking for answers about how to create healthier energetic boundaries, so they’re not so affected by the people around them. On today’s episode, Tony Wechsler and Amelia Tereszkiewicz are going to discuss Dealing with Energy Leaks and Entanglements.
