Toxic Positivity

August 04, 2020 21:04 - 21 minutes - 40 MB

In this episode we discuss toxic positivity. Toxic positivity is the culture of portraying yourself as being happy no matter what. It's also the idea of encouraging people to always see the bright side, and not open up about anything bad. We talk about how this attitude can be detrimental to growth and how it has gotten worse with the advent of social media.  We also talk a little about how you can use your negative thinking as information in to what you need to improve.

The 5th Mental Faculty: Reason

June 30, 2020 21:12 - 21 minutes - 40 MB

Reason is what gives us the ability to really think, to be consciously aware of the thoughts and ideas that come to our mind, and to choose to reject or accept them into our reality. Most of us use our faculty of Reason to justify circumstances or situations in our life that keep us stuck. When we access "Spiritual Reasoning" or "Extraordinary Reasoning" we begin to ask different questions and use different logic to allow us to live in a more expansive way.
