A Prayer of Self-Mothering | The WISDOM podcast | S5 E70

A Prayer of Self-Mothering The WISDOM podcast  Season 5  Episode 70   Self-mothering is the practice of providing yourself with the love, care and support you may not have received nor received as you needed it - whether as a child, or at any earlier time in your development. It involves nurturing your "inner child", addressing unmet emotional and physical needs and it includes fostering a deep sense of self-love and acceptance. 💗 ~ Self-mothering is a construct that impacts all of us - for it is about learning how to give to ourselves now in the present whatever we need and also being able to know what our needs are - and what we needed from our mother that for any number of reasons, we did not receive. ~ Let this prayer be a starting place for you to experience the possibility of what more you can give yourself.     + Our NEW 30 Day Masterclass has landed ~ #30DaysofPresence ~ It has a different vibe, a fresh new approach and it's the perfect complement to that sweet mid-summer magic that we all want to hold onto.

Or Maybe It Is You That Needs To Change 'ask dorothy' The WISDOM podcast  Season 5  Episode 63   We are able to identify in someone else - in our partner, in a sibling, a parent, a friend - what needs to change - and we become focused on this and often to the exclusion of asking: What do I need to do differently?   ~ Change is fuelled by a deep desire. As humans we often seek change in one of two ways: We are motivated out of a desire for self-improvement and to elevate our experiences and the way in which we live life because we believe that this improvement will benefit us - It will help us further our goals of self-actualization and happiness. Change is also largely motivated out of suffering and the desire to be free of what conditions are undesired. You are the co-creator of your life. If you are struggling in any of your relationships - with co-workers, friends, your boss, your direct reports, your partner, your children - point the proverbial finger first at yourself and ask: What am I doing here that is contributing to my suffering/ or to the problem as I see it? And then to ask, what do I need to do differently?     💗   Each month inside The JUNO app we post curated inspirational messages and wisdom and love - all in support of the month's practice before us.   It is a way for you to experience another aspect of what we offer in Juno - a sacred community is a way to connect with other like-minded individuals and to celebrate life and its sacred teachings.   This 30-Day Challenge is all about Transformation through Meditation.
