for 7 dager siden16:22

Description: Why do you question others' criticism but not your own? In this episode of the ARTwork of YOU Lori explores our powerful and often overlooked habit: how we dismiss external criticism but accept our own negative self-talk without question.

Episode Highlights: The Double Standard of Criticism: We fact-check external criticism but rarely challenge our own self-judgment. Why We Believe Familiar Lies: The brain favors repetition over truth, making long-held negative beliefs feel like facts. The Role of Confirmation Bias: How we filter reality to reinforce existing self-perceptions, even when they're inaccurate. Breaking the Cycle: Simple mindset shifts and techniques to challenge self-criticism and adopt a more objective, empowering self-view. If you’ve ever struggled with negative self-talk, this episode is a must-listen. Learn how to shift from self-criticism to self-awareness, allowing you to step into your full potential without the weight of outdated beliefs.

Description: What if the life you're living right now isn't the only version of your reality? What if there are infinite versions of you, each making different choices and experiencing different outcomes? And what if the only thing keeping you from stepping into a better version of yourself is… you? In this thought-provoking episode, Lori explores the concept of parallel realities and how shifting your perspective could lead to an entirely new life. Inspired by Frederick Dodson’s book Parallel Universes of Self , she breaks down how your identity acts like a radio tuner, locking you into a specific reality, until you learn how to change the station. Episode Highlights: ✔️ The mind-blowing concept of parallel realities and why you're not as "fixed" as you think ✔️ How your beliefs and expectations shape the reality you experience ✔️ The radio tuner analogy; why shifting your identity shifts your world ✔️ Why most people unknowingly keep themselves locked in the same patterns ✔️ How one small decision can change the course of your life ✔️ A powerful 24-hour challenge to start rewiring your identity today The version of you who has everything you want isn’t a distant dream, it’s a choice. And that choice is available to you right now. No waiting, no proving, no earning your way there. Decide who you are. Act from that place. Refuse to negotiate with your past self and reality will catch up. It always does. Resources Mentioned: Parallel Universes of Self - by Frederick E.

Description: In this episode, Lori shares the art of accountability; why it’s so hard to master, why it’s essential, and how you can approach it differently. Learn how emotions like fear of failure and lack of self-trust hold you back and discover actionable strategies to rewire your brain for success. From planning intentional rest days to reframing procrastination into productivity, this episode is packed with fresh insights to help you stay on track toward your goals. Episode Highlights: Accountability: Why it's so difficult to hold ourselves accountable, why it's absolutely essential that we do, and how you can start mastering it in your own life. A fresh perspective that will help you think differently about accountability. Your Emotions at Play: Avoiding accountability can feel safer than risking disappointment. Trusting in yourself that you’ll reach your goals takes time but is possible. With the right habits, strategies, and mindset, you can rewire your brain for success. Intentionally Plan Rest Days: Plan to take time in advance so that they feel intentional; take time to reset and reassess. This will allow you to make any necessary adjustments and recharge. Turn Procrastination into Productivity: If you're someone who tends to procrastinate, you can use it to your advantage. Set up a system where avoiding one task helps you complete another. So for example, if you hate. say budgeting. Make it your reward for skipping the gym. So, in other words, if you decide to skip the gym, then you're going to have to do budgeting. Boost Your Success Rate with this Simple Strategy: According to a study by the American Society of Training and Development, having an accountability partner increases your chances of achieving a goal by up to 65%. And, if you set a specific time to check in with your partner, your chances jump to 95%. Unleash Your Inner Rebel: If you're a rebel, the traditional approach to accountability probably feels very restrictive and unmotivating to you. But here's the secret Rebels thrive when they focus on freedom and choice. So frame your goals as opportunities to live life on your own terms and accountability will become about honoring your desires, not anyone else's. Challenge Yourself: Pick one thing that you've been putting off big or small, it doesn't matter and commit to doing it today. Not tomorrow, not next week, today. And if you're feeling bold, share it with someone you trust to hold yourself accountable.

Drawing inspiration from groundbreaking books and scientific studies, Lori shares the power of the quantum field, human intention, and the potential to consciously design the life you desire. Episode Highlights: The Science of Connection The idea that everything in the universe is interconnected is not just spiritual; it’s backed by science. Gregg Braden’s The Divine Matrix highlights a web of energy linking all things, allowing your inner beliefs to influence your outer reality. Plants and Human Intention Lynne McTaggart’s The Intention Experiment reveals a stunning study showing how plants react to human intention. This underscores the idea that thoughts and energy ripple outward, affecting everything around us. The Role of Beliefs in Shaping Biology Dr. Bruce Lipton’s The Biology of Belief demonstrates how our beliefs shape our biology. His research shows that cells respond not only to chemical signals but also to the energy of our thoughts and feelings.

Reprogramming Through Thought and Emotion Dr. Joe Dispenza’s Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself teaches how to rewire your brain by shifting thought patterns and emotions. This process can transform not just your mind but your entire reality. Applying Awareness and Focus Daily Your thoughts, beliefs, and emotions are powerful tools for creating your reality.

Your Life as a Creative Blueprint Gary Zukav’s The Seat of the Soul inspires us to align personality with soul purpose. Viewing life as a creative project transforms challenges into opportunities for growth and alignment. Shift to Possibility Thinking Rather than asking how to fix a problem, shift to asking what’s possible. This creative approach helps you move from feeling reactive to becoming proactive in designing your ideal life.
