who did not appreciate my value because i did not appreciate my own self worth at the time i knew i needed to learn to love myself the way that i wanted someone else to love me but i didn t know how one night when things were at their worst i was walking toward my condo and saw a book sitting on a bench i could feel a distinct energy drawing me toward the text and i stood frozen when i saw the words fourth deadly sin on its cover when i opened the book i saw that it was talking about lust i m a spiritual person and i took the text as a sign that i needed to stop putting my relationships before god and myself i decided to let go of relationships altogether and i made a commitment never to date again i told myself that fulfilling my purpose was far more important than anything i could gain from a romantic partnership intimacy was something i thought i would never have again and i was totally okay with that i avoided situations in which i could be hit on i stopped going out and barely communicated with members of the opposite sex unless they were married or in a serious relationship i built a wall around myself that was so high that i had no idea how anyone could ever break it down intimacy simply wasn t an option so my entire life became about working to create a business i began developing courses for life coaches and eventually started traveling near and far to teach

director of utah s homeless task force even pendleton used to think trying to eradicate homelessness using such an approach was a foolish idea i said you guys must be smoking something this is totally unrealistic pendleton said but the results are hard to dispute in 2005 utah was home to 1 932 chronically homeless by april 2015 there were only 178 a 91 percent drop statewide it s a philosophical shift in how we go about it pendleton said you put them in housing first and then help them begin to deal with the issues that caused them to be homeless chronically homeless persons those living on

life staff december 2015 by confronting our scarier emotions vulnerability fear and shame we can learn to lead a more wholehearted life brené brown shows us the way the toughest moments in life rarely feel like gifts whether it s losing a job struggling through a foundering relationship or witnessing the death of a loved one experiences that bring us to our knees tend to trigger our defenses not our wisdom and yet when we humble ourselves enough to open up during awful times accepting that we re vulnerable rather than lashing out or collapsing in despair we re primed to receive the gifts of imperfection explains best selling author brené brown phd lmsw these rewards courage compassion and connection are not given to the faint of heart notes brown a research professor at the university of houston graduate college of social work who has spent more than a dozen years studying vulnerability worthiness and shame it s tough stuff she believes to embrace vulnerability what she describes as the core of all emotions and feelings yet in her view this is a path that leads straight to heartfelt joy don t get me wrong i d love to skip over the hard stuff but it just doesn t work she writes in the gifts of imperfection we don t change we don t grow and we don t move forward without the work of being vulnerable if we really want to live a joyful connected and meaningful life we must talk about the things that get in the way she notes for more on this see the myth of vulnerability below so how do we confront the obstacles to meaning and intimacy how do we practice vulnerability without crumpling or becoming dependent what does it mean to live life wholeheartedly as brown puts it embracing not just our successes but also our failures as opportunities for growth and connection brown has devoted her career to helping people answer these questions in her popular books i thought it was just me but it isn t the gifts of imperfection daring greatly and her most recent rising strong

courage grief loss shame united states university of houston vulnerability worthiness love in practice communicating with care in your heart december 3 2015 leave a comment collective evolution november 30 2015 by peter russell in all communication there is one thing that each and every one of us requires we all want to be appreciated honoured and respected none of us want to feel criticized rejected ignored or manipulated to reduce it to its simplest terms we each want to feel loved i do not mean love in a romantic sense or some outpouring of emotion but simple caring this is the universal bottom line of every human relationship we all want to feel cared for if each of us would like to be treated with care and respect then it should be our intent to do so for others but what often happens is the exact opposite instead of trying to ensure that the other person feels loved and appreciated we end up in a vicious circle of recrimination and attack it usually starts by our feelings hurt over something someone said or did whether they intended to hurt us or whether it is all our own creation does not matter the fact is we feel hurt and if we are not fully conscious of our own inner processes we are likely to defend ourselves by attacking back in some way it s not the most noble or wisest response nevertheless that is the way us less than enlightened folk sometimes react we may respond with a cutting remark or criticism a resentful tone of voice a shift in body language or simply by making no response at all whatever form it takes the underlying intention is that the other person should feel just a little hurt not much not enough to disrupt the relationship but sufficient that the other person should not feel totally one hundred per cent loved but if the other person is also less than enlightened their response to a perceived attack will probably be similar to ours they will probably attack back and do or say something intended to make us feel a little hurt and not totally loved so the vicious circle begins it may not always be that obvious on the surface it often looks as if the relationship is going well both people are friendly with no open hostility but underneath a sad game is being played out each person in their attempts to have the other person behave in a more loving manner is actually withholding love from the other it is

t be called up on command the best we can do to encourage the arising of insight is to create hospitable conditions reflecting meditating journaling attending a silent retreat and walking meditation are some activities that are frequently associated with the arising of insight our relationships too are rich sources of insight once an insight sprouts up we do have a wonderful opportunity to nurture its potential to create positive change insights come in many varieties one insight might invite us to alter our behavior or adopt a more compassionate attitude while another may encourage us to view our past from a fresh new perspective more rare is the insight that shifts our entire take on reality like when krishna revealed his true identity to arjuna in the bhagavad gita whether heart opening or mind blowing an insight is a precious gift that springs from our own deep wisdom how can we honor this offering how do we nurture this seed of wisdom into a full flowering so that it serves the highest good sometimes an insight is such a strong experience of knowing in every cell of our body that it doesn t require much cultivation this happened to me once when i was practicing walking meditation on a silent retreat the insight about the negative way i was occasionally communicating with my partner was such a complete body mind experience that tears sprang to my eyes before my brain fully understood why my knees felt like they might buckle under the intensity of this sudden revelation of the harm i could be causing after i returned home i completely abandoned that hurtful behavior and it was almost effortless to do so i have heard phillip compare this kind of dramatic insight to the experience of picking up a pot that is too hot our entire being knows that we need to set it down read more here posted in consciousness enlightenment mindfulness tags bhagavad gita deep wisdom insight journaling meditating reflecting a powerful tool for your happiness arsenal rebt december 1 2015 leave a comment by marelisa many of us have established being happy as one of our main goals in life however our own self talk often interferes with our ability to achieve this goal we express our beliefs through our self talk and these beliefs can be rational or irrational while rational beliefs are realistic irrational beliefs are those that don t accurately represent the world there are several categories of irrational beliefs and we ve all been guilty of having thoughts that fall into one or more of these categories at some point or another one of the best ways to increase our happiness is to replace irrational self talk with more realistic and adaptive self talk this post will explain a great tool for doing this it s called rational emotive behavior therapy rational emotive behavior therapy rebt in a nutshell men are disturbed not by things but by the views which they take of them epictetus in the mid 1950s albert ellis an american psychologist developed a form of psychotherapy which today is known as rational emotive behavior therapy rebt the philosophical basis of rebt is the principle that a person is not affected emotionally by the events that take place in his or her life but rather by his or her interpretation of these outside events in short our thoughts cause our emotions keep reading to discover how you can begin to apply rebt in your own life in order to increase your happiness read more here posted in emotional health intention mindfulness positivity in mind and body tags albert ellis happiness rational emotive behavior therapy rebt self
