Fixing a Bad Mood [SSL166]

Today, I share Derek Sivers’ recipe for fixing a bad mood along with things I do to shorten or avert unnecessary low spirits. Though being sad or down is normal, I found Derek’s tactics for changing mindset really clever. Enjoy!

3 Paradoxes of Time That Can Change Your Life [SSL163]

Today, are some insights from the book “The Time Paradox: The new psychology of Time that will change your life”, (by Philip Zimbardo and John Boyd). I learned about this book through Derek Sivers and his amazing book notes.

We misperceive time and reality depending on our habits of time-focus.
Feeling anxious and threatened gives us a misperception of time itself.

Your support means a lot.

Where the World Ends; poet, Joy Harjo [SSL155]

Poetry by its form and delivery can create space and time for reflection giving us a chance to feel clarity and more abundance. Today I share 3 poems that give us a most extraordinary look at ordinary things that mark our lives and weave them tougher by a talented woman who is a sage for us especially in more difficult times.

Joy Harjo was appointed the United States poet laureate in 2019. Born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1951, Harjo is a member of the Mvskoke/Creek Nation. 🚩and accept my apologies, in this episode I mispronounce Harjo with a Spanish silent “J”. <HAR-joe> is the correct way to say this poet’s surname. Locate Joy’s work and poetry books HERE (Music in this episode from Free Music Archives. song: Rain by Unheard Music Concepts)

Find links to read the poems and more on Joy and today’s episode, free today, at the support site, HERE.
