Cognitive Climb, the Tool of Prosperity
Imagine being able to transform your thoughts and beliefs gradually, leading you towards your goals. That's what you'll learn in this episode as we unpack the power and potential pitfalls of affirmations, guided by the concept of cognitive climb.
We explore how this gradual shift from less positive beliefs to more aspirational ones is a step wise process.
Intrigued about making affirmations work for you? We take a deep look into the concept of cognitive climb - a gentle ascent to positive thinking that feels genuine, believable and manageable.
We also discuss the less-talked-about danger of 'toxic positivity' and how forcing yourself to believe for excessively positive thoughts can sometimes backfire. Don’t miss out on the insights on how to leverage cognitive climb for effective thought-changing magic.

Body Healing with Somatic Exercises
In this episode of the Islamic Life Coach School Podcast, I will guide you on how to navigate challenges without letting them consume you. Through body-based techniques like progressive muscle relaxation and deep breathing, along with alternate nostril breathing, you can begin to heal and find closure. The journey towards self-healing has a learning curve, but with these tools, you can start small and continue to build your practice.
I talk about emotional release exercises such as the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), artistic expression, and the Chasing the Pain technique. I also talk about guided imagery, stretching, and prayers - all tools that can help manage our emotions, and decrease distress.
We delve deeper into how prayers, as a form of somatic technique, can root us emotionally, directing the brain's focus to the Divine. Coupled with Somatic level exercises and body awareness techniques, we'll learn how to achieve tranquility and inner peace.

Resilience without Suffering: Balance of Grit and Self-Care
What is the true essence of resilience and what is a modern construct?
I attempt to answer that and clarify what resilience is SUPPOSED to mean
I tackle the modern day misuse of resilience, particularly its association with incessant productivity and disregard for your well-being. I challenge the norm that women should exhibit constant resilience.
To me, recognizing and tending to your own needs before a meltdown is fundamental for your health.
Let's embark on a journey to redefine resilience through understanding and respecting our bodies, embracing our roles, and nourishing our faith and humility.
I also talk about the concept of grit, its alignment with actual resilience, and the power of prayer in seeking guidance and solace. I invite you to redefine resilience on your own terms and create a personal resiliency plan to manage life's challenges better, improve your mental fitness, and strengthen your bond with Allah SWT.

Eye opener or I must say brain opener!!
Every time I listen to the episode, I learn something new. I love how Kanwal explains different perspective, the different way of handling a circumstance and a whole new approach. The way she uses real life examples (“Joy” episode) to explain scenarios and emotions, is wonderful!! After listening to this podcast and taking live coaching sessions with Kanwal, I have been able to stop myself from unhelpful habits and replace them with healthy alternatives. I highly recommend listening to this podcast!!

These have been an eye opener.
Absolutely love listening to Kanwal’s podcasts. The way she breaks down concepts and provides relatable examples, makes it very easy and realistic to follow and apply. The duration of each podcast is perfect for my attention span ;) Each of these is packed with a lot knowledge. I have listened to some of the episodes a few times to process every sentence and have always learned a new aspect of the topic every time. She’s a wonderful speaker, very captivating. Eloquent yet very realistic and clear. Her vision for today’s Muslim women is admirable.
