    Live Like the Ocean: Go with the Flow

    If we don't learn to live like the ocean with all its variability and unpredictability, we suffer. The ocean’s mighty swells, its deadly currents, its frightening depths, the beauty, grandeur and even the mystery, fascinates us, but also scares us. Humans are attached to the deception of permanence and the desperate need for guarantees. However, as we all know, life can be unsteady, frightening and super difficult if we don’t learn to go with the flow. We can indeed learn how not to be averse to adverse events. We all need to find our sea legs.

    What is "High Functioning" Depression?

    Depression does not only affect those who’s struggles are evident. “High functioning” depression highlights that a person can experience significant symptoms of depression and not have it be obvious to people around them or even to people they are close to. The way someone carries themselves in public and in their professional life, does not reflect the entire profile of their personality or what they are grappling with inside. One of the key features is that people who are "high functioning" depressives have periods of time when their depression temporarily lifts and they are able to be productive. This podcast discusses notable luminaries who have accomplished a great deal in their lives despite suffering from depression. Take a listen!

Embracing "alone time" or "me" time is crucial for building emotional resistance and personal growth. It helps us to be more creative, more humble with ourselves and others and helps recharge our batteries. It also helps us to problem solve better, think more clearly and ground ourselves in reality. So, learn how to take advantage of your "aloneness."

    How to Decrease Anxiety: Be more Reflective than Reactive

    The cliché, “Life is 10% of what happens to us and 90% how we react to it,” has a great deal of truth. Hence, learning how to be more reflective than reactive via a few subtle mind-shifts will help you handle the stressors of life better regardless of what is happening around you. These tools can be helpful with career goals, in every day social interactions and even with family and intimate relationships. Some of these concepts include, listening to yourself more compassionately from the inside than outside. Learning to be a facilitator instead of a fixer, adopting a “process orientation” to life instead of a “results orientation” to life and assuming an attitude of gratitude. Let me know what you think.
