Being Well With Lauren

Episode 164 Being well with Lauren Sometimes life just sucks, and all we can do is just let go   Day eight MindBody Cleanse -   The way of letting go   Do you have that favorite jumper that you have worn until it is thread bare? Or perhaps you have three or four jumpers. Recently I looked into my jumper box and noticed that it was over flowing to the point that I could not see what I have now...or what I truly value. To let go means to stop holding on. To stop the tenacious attachment.  What can you let go of today?  Today I talk about a flood my house and what my flood taught me about life... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0nO_EVhAvs  My virtual online wellness centre is now open JOIN MY VIRTUAL ONLINE RETREAT for wellness at https://www. beingwellwithlauren.com BUY MY BOOK Daily Rituals For Happiness https://www.amazon.com/Daily-Rituals-Happiness-happy-single-ebook/dp/B01GA4KXWY?ie=UTF8&ref_=pe_2427780_160035660 My podcast https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/being-well-with-lauren/id1030685050?mt=2 M

  Episode 163 Being well with Lauren Humility is a sexy topic- Being humble is the keystone to happiness   Day seven MindBody Cleanse -   The way of humility   Humility is the quality or state of not thinking that you are better than other people.   One who has a need to be better than others logically needs to impress others, craves reassurance from the group, and lacks a sense of peace with what is. I am not suggesting that we stop working towards personal growth but we do so realising that we are one of  many precious amazing beings on this planet including animals and plant life- Every life counts and every life has credence. It is a very humility which gives us worth as humility comes hand in hand with gratitude, compassion and an open heart.   Imagine for a moment that you are looking down upon the planet and you are floating higher and higher and higher in the air. We look down upon our world and we gain perspective as we see our humble role as one of many. When we climb up the mountain of life we can

Episode 162 Being well with Lauren   The way of simplicity- less is more number 6 of 14 of the Mind Body cleanse program     Day six MindBody Cleanse -  The way of simplicity Writer and designer Graham Hill asks: Can having less stuff, in less room, lead to more happiness? He makes the case for taking up less space, and lays out three rules for editing your life. This is one of my favorite areas as my own way of simplicity keeps me on my path. As a mother of 4 I find it challenging to keep life simple but I find that the more I keep it simple the better I feel - I feel stronger with a clear mind and a clearer mind comes from decluttering and editing my life. Look around you- Look at all the stuff can you clearly say that each item brings you joy? At the moment I am reading the life-changing magic of tidying up. Marie Kondo   So as Kondo teaches us let’s pick up each item in our life and ask’‘what joy does this bring us today”. Let not get distracted by clutter let focus upon what counts   My virtual online we

  Episode 161 Being well with Lauren Learn to say no and be happy   Day five MindBody Cleanse - The way of assertiveness By Lauren ostrowski Fenton Today we talk about how learning to say no can allow happiness to flow into our life.   There will be so many moments in your life when people attempt to trample your boundaries, pressure you to please them, or distract you from being yourself. The answer is to have the assertiveness to demarcate your boundaries. The answer is to say no.   Seth Godin says   If you can’t do a good job, don’t take it on. If it’s going to distract you from the work that truly matters, pass. If you don’t know why they want you to do this, ask. If you need to hide it from your mom, reconsider. If it benefits you but not the people you care about, decline. If you’re going along with the crowd, that’s not enough. If it creates a habit that costs you in the long run, don’t start. If it doesn’t move you forward, hesitate then walk away.   Have a think about a time when someone tried to enc

  Episode 160 Reflecting -   How to reflect the light  of happiness  back towards yourself Day four of mind body cleanse Day four MindBody Cleanse -  The path of reflection   We can reflect on experiences much as we do on photos- remembering the celebration, the laughter, and the love or we can choose to reflect with bitterness and resentment focussing upon the negative. Today let's take out some mind-forged photos out of our photo albums of life and reflect with an openness to learning with an emphasis on happiness and an invitation to joy.   And what does it mean to reflect? To reflect is to throw back by a body or surface of light, heat, or sound without absorbing it.It also means to have a serious thought or consideration. When we learn to reflect we can review ajdut and develop our cognitive thoughts in order to learn to practice happiness.

Cut the BS already- Be happy today    Episode 159 Being well with Lauren   Day three MindBody Cleanse -  The path of the present By Lauren Ostrowski Fenton   Now take a moment to look down the mountain of your life...From your vantage point of objectivity what can you see? Thats right you can see the animals, houses, and paths. They  look smaller from up here on the mountain of perspective don't they? When we start to have perspective we start to light our way with the first lcandle of wisdom and enlightenment. Have you ever asked yourself know why they call it enlightenment? Because it is about lightening your emotional load so that you can focus on what counts.   So what can we take out of our back back today? Anything which does not belong in the present. Take the past out. Remember when can we feel? We can only feel in the now and who does the feeling?- yes that's right - we do. And likewise we choose which feeling to pack into our backpack of now and which feelings to discard. If we have too many feeling

Day two MindBody Cleanse -  The path of forgiveness By Lauren Ostrowski Fenton   Episode 158 Being well with Lauren   Stop being loyal to your  suffering  and let it go Day 2 Forgiveness ( of 14 day MindBody cleanse)   Well how did you go with day One? What did you learn? Don't forget that this is about giving up your teddy of past patterns and reforming new ones...and that is no easy process but you can do this. Today we examine forgiveness.   Why have I chosen to explore forgiveness so early in the Mind body course? Because all change, all healing, all cleansing starts with empathy compassion and forgiveness. This is not about trotting out a ‘that's ok’ towards past memories and people this is about soul searching, meditation and self-inquiring in order that you physically and mindfully forgive everything which has occurred in the past- kind of like cleaning out a fridge...all the food with an expiry date is gone thrown out finished. You can do this. So roll up your sleeves and let's get forgiving.   What i

Episode 157 Empathy & compassion day one of the 14-day Mindbody cleanse   The Path   Day one MindBody Cleanse – The path of compassion and empathy By Lauren Ostrowski Fenton   Welcome to Day 1 of my14-Day MindBody Cleanse. I'm so excited that you've chosen to join me in this amazing journey. Are you excited? I know that I am.  I want you to take a moment to pat yourself on the back. Remember you have made this decision to walk this path. You have formed the intention of clearing out the old and welcoming in the new. You have committed to change and that is no easy feat. Just as a child who feels attachment to an old much-loved teddy so do we as adults like to hold on to old patterns of thinking, negative self talk, and expectations. I promise you that today is a really important day. Today give yourself permission to take the first step. Today give yourself permission to walk gently but deliberately along the path to change.   Lets start at the beginning. Imagine that you are preparing for a long hike- a

Episode 155 Being well with Lauren Your pantry can forecast your future Just like we deep cleanse our skin for health and well being it is vital that we systematically deep cleanse our pantry. Our pantries are the larders of our life. Imagine for a moment that your pantry is your soul. Well to the extent that is correct as our pantries store the fuel which feeds our soul, and nourishes our brains. In our pantries we store our body's sustenance; the consumables which feed our brain, support our immune system and energizes our hearts. Our pantry reflects our state of mind and can even help to forecast our future.  So in a way our pantries are psychic. So let's ask our pantry to lay down those tarot cards.   Let's have a listen to our pantries. What is our pantry trying to communicate to us? Have a look in your pantry. Look at the shelves, the stock, space, and the order. What does your pantry say about you? Is it easy to navigate through your pantry? Is it categorized into slow release and fast release food? Ar

Episode 152 Being well with Lauren Have we warped the definition of being sexy?  Hi every one-   One of my awesome listeners asked me to speak about body image so as I do before recording any podcast episode I started to have a good think about body image and what it means to have a good body...which got me thinking...is it even possible to have a good body? and then I started to consider is it possible to be beautiful ..or be sexy? And what does it mean to be sexy? Or are these concepts measurable or rather social ideals which are unattainable? Being attractive is simply a perception or a feeling resulting from our personal understanding that our peer group accepts us. Doesn't  this feeling really has more to do with how we subjectively feel about ourselves rather than what we objectively look like...
