The 5 Myths of Extreme Self Care

By Lori Lynn Smith

Ten years ago I was a control freak perfectionist workaholic!  I worked 16 hour days, every day.  One day, I found myself sitting in my car in the parkade and crying.  I was tired, sooo tired!

Right then and there, I made a decision to change my life.  I decided that I needed to take care of me!  I decided to take back control of my life and start down a plan that focuses on creating a life that I am madly in love with!  I started this journey by learning self-love and self-care.

It wasn’t easy and it took time, but today I can say that my life has changed 180 degrees.  I make decisions every day that lead me further down the path of self-love and self-care.

I believe 150% that all growth comes from finding yourself first and you can only do that when you can take care of yourself!

Often people comment on my life and ask how I did it… but many many immediately become defensive and start to list off excuses for why they can’t make these changes in their life….  do you find yourself feeling the same way? [Read more…] about The 5 Myths of Extreme Self Care

6 Myths about Happiness

By Lori Lynn Smith

Happiness

Alex leads us through a series of Myths about happiness.  I often use the same strategy of the “myths” or “half-truth” to demonstrate our old beliefs.  Beliefs that have been with  us sometimes since childhood that really have lost ago lost their usefulness.

Alex has really sooo many great points, here is a quick sample:

If you want to be happy in your life (and who doesn’t actually) you must first change entirely the way you look at some things. Ready? Let’s go and analyze the 6 core concepts of happiness and the truth behind each one of them.

Myth #1: Happiness: you either have it or not

Genes play an important role in the feeling of happiness. In fact, researchers suggest that heredity contributes 50% to someone’s happiness.

This percentage is the one that actually demolishes the first myth. In fact since 50% is heredity, the remaining 50% is the happiness that someone can seek and create.

The effort and the desire for happiness are able to create the conditions of a cheerful life. Harmonious and healthy interpersonal relationships, acts of kindness, daily exercise and meditation are just some of the things that may lead you to the conquest of happiness, even if you don’t “have” it from your ancestors.

I highly recommend that you shot over to Alex’s website and spend a bit of time reading, it will make you feel happy!  Click here to read more.
