The Art of Teachability

//  Leave a Comment

Teachability: 1. a : capable of being taught b : apt and willing to learn 2. favorable to teaching teachableness -Merriam-Webster

Ahimsa: (in the Hindu, Buddhist, and Jainist tradition) respect for all living things and avoidance of violence toward others. -Oxford Dictionary
                   Alana in Rishikesh, India

Hey there, fellow seekers of wisdom and growth! Let’s dive deep into something that’s been on my mind lately – the beautiful dance between staying teachable and practicing Ahimsa in our personal and professional lives. It’s a journey that’s both challenging and rewarding, and I’m excited to explore it with you.

Ahimsa is a fundamental principle that Mahatma Gandhi applied in many areas of life, including politics, social organization, economics, education, and conflict resolution.

The Humble Path of the Eternal Student

You know, there’s something magical about embracing the mindset of an eternal student. It’s like we’re opening ourselves up to a world of endless possibilities. The Bhagavad Gita puts it so beautifully when it says, “The wise see knowledge and action as one.” Isn’t that profound? It’s not just about accumulating knowledge, but about living it, breathing it, and letting it transform us from the inside out.But here’s the thing – staying teachable isn’t always easy.

Our egos love to whisper that we’ve got it all figured out. And let’s be honest, sometimes it feels good to be the ‘expert,’ doesn’t it? But what if we could find joy in not knowing? What if we could approach each day with the wide-eyed wonder of a child, ready to be amazed by new discoveries? What if we trusted* the process and really lived in the moment, free from judgement or fear?

Actionable steps:

  1. Start your day with a simple mantra: “Today, I am open to learning something new.”
  2. Practice active listening like your life depends on it – because in a way, it does! Our growth is tied to our ability to truly hear others.
  3. Seek out trusted perspectives. It’s in the sharing of differing ideas that we often find our greatest insights. This is innovation.
  4. Trust your inner guidance. Cultivate a daily meditation ritual and make it a routine.

The Gentle Art of Non-Judgment

Now, let’s talk about Ahimsa. This beautiful concept of non-violence extends far beyond physical actions. It’s about cultivating a mind free from judgment – of ourselves and others. It’s a radical act of love and acceptance in a world that often pushes us to be critical. Remember what Jesus said in the Bible? “Do not judge, or you too will be judged” (Matthew 7:1). It’s not just good advice; it’s a pathway to freedom. When we release the need to judge, we create space for understanding, growth, and genuine connection.Actionable steps:

  1. Next time you find yourself forming a quick judgment, pause. Take a breath. Ask yourself, “What if there’s more to this story that I can’t see?”
  2. Practice empathy as a daily exercise. Try to put yourself in someone else’s shoes, especially when you disagree with them.
  3. Start a gratitude practice. It’s hard to judge when your heart is full of thankfulness.
  4. Typically when we judge others, it stems from something within. Ahimsa asks us to be gentle with ourselves and others.

The Inner Journey of Growth

Here’s a truth bomb for you: while external learning is valuable, the most profound growth happens within. The Bhagavad Gita reminds us, “You have a right to your actions, but never to your actions’ fruits.” This is where the rubber meets the road in our personal development.It’s about doing the work, showing up for ourselves day after day, without attachment to the outcome. It’s about trusting the process, even when we can’t see the results yet. This inner work is where true transformation happens.Actionable steps:

  1. Set aside time each day for self-reflection. Even 5-10 minutes can be powerful. Just make sure you do it. When someone decides to dive into their first 3 month Integrative Leadership journey, that is something that is essential for their progress towards their goals. This is how you discover your inner most passions and get clear on the steps to get there.
  2. Start a journal to track your inner journey. Write about your challenges, your victories, your questions.
  3. Celebrate your growth, no matter how small it might seem. Remember, every step forward is progress.

The Delicate Balance

Now, here’s where it gets really interesting. How do we balance learning from others with trusting our own inner wisdom? How do we stay open to guidance while also honoring our own journey? The Bible offers some wisdom here: “Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom in the future” (Proverbs 19:20). But remember, listening to advice doesn’t mean blindly following it. It means taking it in, processing it, and seeing how it aligns with your own truth.Actionable steps:

  1. Seek out mentors and teachers, but always filter their advice through your own discernment. A good mentor will reflect your inner most wisdom. Choose your mentor wisely and trust your intuition.
  2. Practice saying “I’ll think about that” instead of immediately accepting or rejecting new ideas. Immediate answers can stem from trauma. Be sure to cultivate mindful breathing practices while listening to others and pause before answering at all. Let every single word you utter be intentional. If you sense your nervous system is rattled/triggered, practice some breath-work or do some gentle yoga stretches and somatic movement to calm yourself down (there are easy and effective practices I can teach you do to at your own desk when you’re in a pinch).
  3. Regularly check in with your intuition. How does a piece of advice or a new concept feel in your body? Does it resonate with your core values? Is it an 100% deep yes? If it’s a maybe, that is still a signal that it is a no or a not yet. If you practice mindfulness regularly over time and treat your mind, body with love and respect, you will be able to tune into your intuition in a greater way.

“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” -Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching

Ahimsa in the Business World

Now, let’s bring this all into the business world. Imagine a workplace culture built on the principles of Ahimsa and teachability. It would be a place of continuous growth, mutual respect, and innovation.The Bhagavad Gita teaches us, “By worship you will nourish the gods and the gods will nourish you in turn.” In a business context, we can interpret this as the power of mutual support and respect. When we create an environment where everyone feels valued and heard, where mistakes are seen as learning opportunities rather than failures, we set the stage for incredible success.Actionable steps:

  1. Foster a culture of constructive feedback. Make it safe for people to share their thoughts and ideas.
  2. Encourage collaboration over competition. Remember, a rising tide lifts all boats.
  3. Lead by example. Show your team what it looks like to stay teachable and practice non-judgment.

In closing, remember this beautiful quote from the Bhagavad Gita: “The superior man is he whose mind can control his senses; with no attachment to results, he engages in the yoga of action.” This is our invitation – to engage fully in the action of our lives and businesses, to stay open and teachable, to practice non-judgment, all while releasing attachment to the results.It’s a journey, my friends. A beautiful, challenging, rewarding journey. And I’m so glad we’re on it together.

So, what resonates with you from all of this? How do you stay teachable in your life and work? How do you practice Ahimsa in your learning journey? I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences. Let’s keep this conversation going!

Remember, we’re all in this together. Keep growing, keep learning, and above all, keep being kind to yourself and others along the way.

Finding Harmony in Festive Frenzy

//  Leave a Comment

The holiday season is a magical time filled with joy, laughter, and connection. Yet, it can also feel overwhelming for many as we juggle family gatherings, home, career, and the to-do lists. As someone who believes in the power of balance and self-care (schedule it in for yourself every day!), I’m excited to share my favorite strategies for navigating this beautiful yet busy time with grace and ease.

Mental and Emotional Balance Strategies for Finding Harmony in Festive Frenzy

1. Set Realistic Expectations

  • Embrace Imperfection: Remember that the holidays don’t have to be picture-perfect. Remain flexible and present.
  • Create Flexible Plans: Allow yourself to adapt as needed. Life is unpredictable, and that’s part of the fun.
  • Practice Self-Compassion: Be gentle with yourself. It’s normal to feel a mix of emotions during this season.

2. Establish Emotional Boundaries

  • Say “No” When Needed: Protect your energy by declining events that feel overwhelming or unfulfilling. If you grew up in a home where you felt like you had to walk on eggshells, this will be a practice over time. Saying no can be a very healthy boundary when paired with letting go of what others think about your decision.

As Shakespeare reminds us, “To thine own self be true.”

  • Prioritize Your Well-Being: This goes along with saying no when you mean it and yes when you mean it! Make time for activities that recharge you, whether it’s reading a book or enjoying a quiet cup of tea. I personally love taking epsom salt baths steeped with loving prayers of restoration, clearing & rebalancing. Whatever floats your boat for self-care, do it well and do it often. Learning yourself is a daily journey that deepens over time. Yoga can teach you to really begin and continue to listen to what your mind, body, and spirit are really saying and then responding to that call. Daily morning meditation & mindfulness of just a few moments of your time can support you in setting an intention to prioritize your well-being for that entire day which will positively impact everything and everyone around you.
  • Communicate Openly: Share your needs with loved ones. They’ll appreciate your honesty! Taking extra time to get centered with your self care practices before family gatherings will set you somatically up for success.

3. Maintaining Physical Balance

  • Stick to a Sleep Routine: Aim for consistent sleep schedules to keep your energy levels steady.
  • Mindful Movement & Exercise: Incorporate regular exercise into your day, even if it’s just a brisk walk or a short yoga session. With the internet at most of our fingertips, you can find a yoga or workout video at any time of the day right in the comfort of your own home or find support with a coach or mentor to help you stay on track with this incredibly important facet of your healthy, integrative lifestyle.
  • Mindful Eating: Savor your meals and listen to your body’s hunger cues—enjoy those holiday treats without guilt!
  • Stay Hydrated: Don’t forget to drink plenty of water amidst the festive feasting.

4. Practical Self-Care Techniques

  • Deep Breathing Exercises: Take a moment to breathe deeply whenever you feel stressed; it can work wonders.
  • Daily Mindfulness Practices: Just 10 minutes of mindfulness can help ground you and bring clarity. Check out my meditation on The Insight Timer to try this free 5 minute guided meditation called, “Clear Blue Sky.”
  • Journaling: Write down your thoughts and feelings; it’s a great way to process the holiday hustle.
  • Mind your diet: While indulging is part of the fun, moderation can help you feel your best. Drink plenty of water and eat/drink high quality and organic foods whenever possible. I also love to infuse all of my meals with intentional prayer and positive energy, giving thanks to every single bit of what I am consuming

5. Balanced Holiday Planning

  • Create a Budget: Plan your spending ahead of time to avoid financial stress.
  • Thoughtful Gift Giving: Consider meaningful gifts that reflect your loved ones’ personalities rather than going for quantity.
  • Potluck Gatherings: Host gatherings where everyone contributes a dish—this not only saves money but also fosters community and shared energy investment.
  • Travel Wisely: If you are traveling during this holiday season, take a look at the week as a whole. Be mindful of your schedule on the days surrounding your trip to ensure you conserve energy as needed for the event ahead. I suggest practicing mindfulness (yoga, meditation, nature walk, etc.) the morning of to support your nervous system to best handle any stress that may be ahead.

6. Spiritual and Personal Renewal & Reconnecting with Yourself

  • Practice Gratitude: Take time each day to reflect on what you’re thankful for; it shifts your focus toward positivity.
  • Set Gentle Intentions: Rather than rigid resolutions, think about what you want to cultivate in the coming year.
  • Embrace Imperfection: Allow yourself to enjoy the season without the pressure of perfection.

7. Create a Support Network

  • Lean on Your Tribe: Surround yourself with supportive friends and family who uplift you. Share your feelings and experiences; sometimes, just talking it out can ease the holiday pressure. Learn more about our Integrative Leadership Community & InnerCircle.biz membership to join an elevated network of executives and leaders on a mission to foster community worldwide.
  • Join Community Events: Engage in local activities or volunteer opportunities to connect with others and spread kindness during this time. Check out this 80 Year Long Harvard Study that proves community interaction improves mental well-being.

Balance isn’t about achieving perfection; it’s about navigating life’s beautiful complexities with intention and kindness. This holiday season, prioritize what truly matters—connection, joy, and self-care.

Wishing you peace, laughter, and authentic moments this festive season

De-Stress by Balancing the Vagus Nerve & Root Chakra

//  Leave a Comment

The Vagus Nerve & The Root Chakra

“It carries signals to your brain, heart, lungs and digestive system. It’s the longest cranial nerve in your body, running from your brain all the way to your large intestine…Your vagus nerve plays a part in controlling involuntary sensory and motor functions like your heart rate, speech, mood and urine output. It helps your body switch back and forth between your flight-or-fight response and your parasympathetic mode, where you’re more relaxed. (schneik)”

I love when science backs up reasons to practice mindfulness. 

When out of balance from stress, this nerve can contribute to anxiety, depression, diabetes 2, heart disease, highblood pressure, and more…

Age can also be a factor, however, we can age gracefully and nurture this nerve/chakra as a part of our mind body commitment to living and experiencing a healthy mind/body so that we can ENJOY LIFE well into our ‘wisdom years.’

Since the vagus nerve runs from the colon to the brain, the chakra associated with this is the ROOT CHAKRA & the CROWN CHAKRA and in yogic culture it is directly related to “Kundalini,” energy. Kundalini energy.

“Kundalini, when awakened and activated, travels up the spine and both purifies and turns-on the seven main vortexes situated along the spine known as chakras. Along the way, kundalini helps to bring prana to the various organs and glands located along this vital channel, helping to maintain the pristine health of the body/mind… The Vagus nerve is the 10th cranial ventricle, which extends from the colon to the brain with mostly upward firing neurons. It reaches from the position of the first chakra up to the crown. The function of the Vagus nerve (which is interestingly enough really a pair of nerves referred to as One) is to “collect data” from all the organs and glands of the body, including the stomach and heart, thymus and thyroid, and bring this information to the brain for deduction.(Stasia Bliss)”

There is no coincidence that both the Vagus Nerve and the Kundalini energy run from root to crown and pelvis to brain. Both run along the spinal cord & both interact with glands and organs along the spine. To awaken the Kundalini energy can balance this energy center which in turn can assist in your Vagus Nerve THRIVING!!! Kundalini is activated when we meditate for instance and allow both the ida and pingala nadis (Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine aspects that reside in all of us on an energetic level) to harmonize and travel in figure 8’s up the spine to the Crown. This is also in essence connecting our inner Heaven & Earth.

We must first enter into nurturing this nerve through conscious efforts of maintaining a clear and balanced root chakra so that the Life Force (what yogis called Prana) can easily travel to and through our main channel of energy(Sushumna nadi)  and the spine.

 

Here are 5 Ways to Vagus Nerve + Root Chakra:

 

 

1. Carve out time to meditate daily: Committing to begin or continue a meditation practice is an essential when it comes to balancing your Vagus Nerve. When you rise in the morning, set yourself up for success by not checking your emails or texts and instead popping in some headphones and listening to a guided meditation or simply allowing the silence to bring you into a state where you are focusing only on your breath. As you sit or lay down , allow your eyes to close and notice the coolness of your inhalations going through each nostril and then the warmth of your breath as you exhale through the nostrils, perhaps even drawing awareness to the breath brushing the upper lip. If you are new to meditation, start with 1 minute daily and try to build up to 15-20 minutes in the morning and then before bed. “Meditation can regulate your autonomic nervous system,” says Dr. Estemalik. “It has a good effect on lowering rapid breathing, rapid heart rate and cortisol levels.” (/)

2. Yoga: Yoga is another great way to destress and balance your Vagus nerve and Root Chakra energy center. Some poses that specifically help to balance these centers are Child’s Pose, Easy Pose, Forward Fold & Garland Pose.

 

3. Massage: Research has shown that reflexology can be effective in supporting a health Vagus Nerve and Nervous System

“Foot reflexology can increase vagal modulation, decrease sympathetic modulation, and lower blood pressure in healthy subjects and patients with coronary artery disease.(PubMed; CD)”

 

4. Singing/Humming/Mantra: Vibration of the vocal chords can lead to a happy and healthy Vagus Nerve and has been used by yogis and different cultures of the ages to promote mental health. The Vagus Nerve is connected to the vocal chords to it makes sense that humming or singing can help to maintain a healthy Vagus regime. A great way to practice this is singing only songs that feel good to you or try chanting three “OM’s” or humm.

 

5. Cold Compress: Research has shown “Effects of Cold Stimulation on Cardiac-Vagal Activation in Healthy Participants, (Jungmann et al., 2018)” Some easy ways to practice this are placing an ice pack or frozen orange/lemon on the back of your neck and pulse points for a few minutes!

 

I hope that you have great success in practicing these mindful techniques for a balance mind, body & spirit!

The Powerful Practice of Journaling

//  Leave a Comment

One Harvard study showed that participants who journaled at the end of each day were nearly 23 percent more productive than those who didn’t -Dr. Gia Marson

Journaling is one of the most effective self help techniques that I have ever done. It’s simple and requires nothing more than a pen and paper and yet beginning a practice like this is not always easy. There have been studies that have proven it’s effectiveness is helping people process emotions, live healthier and happier lives, improves productivity, and increases creativity!

Studies have shown that the benefits of journaling include:

  • reduced stress and anxiety

  • Enhance your unique intuitive strengths

  • Improve your sense of well-being

  • Lower blood pressure and the risk for inflammatory illnesses

  • Relieve anxiety, stress, fatigue, and general mood and sleep disturbances for people who suffer from cancer symptoms and treatment side effects, thus improving their quality of life

  • Reduce common menopausal symptoms

  • Improve symptoms of anxiety (Marson)

In the book “The Artist’s Way,” author Julia Cameron begins her book emphasizing the powerful practice of “Morning Pages,” which in essence is this. She has worked with people all over the world who have tried this morning journaling practice and radically shifted their lives. She tells of true stories from people who began journaling every morning and found that when they got all of the junk out from their subconscious mind that was holding them back, and then anchored into gratitude lists and creative journaling, that they began to heal from life long perpetual issues like addiction. These people then go on to be incredibly successful in a field that they are passionate about, have healthier self-images,  healthier relationships, better sleep, better reasoning, calmer demeanor, and helps them live more positivity centered lives.

I love these holistic self-care practices. They are simple and require nothing more than a pen and paper. Why not do something that is proven by studies to increase happiness, health, and overall well-being?

Here are some Journaling Prompts to get you started:

Journal by a cozy blanket and cup of coffee on a wooden tray with ferns

 

1. What are you grateful for today and why?

 

2. Reflecting on people who have inspired you in your lifetime, what about them do you feel grateful for?

 

3. What is something I can commit to today that my future self will thank me for?

 

4. Write a letter to your past self from 5 years ago from your now self, look how far you’ve come, what would you say?

 

5. Write a letter to your past self from 10 years ago from your now self, look how far you’ve come, what would you say?
