I’m your host Marla Beech, and more than anything I want to help encourage, empower, and inspire you as you discover your priorities and highest self.

Believe me, I’ve been there and visit more often than I’d like to admit. But it doesn’t have to be that way! I believe we can fight back with simple, daily practices that replace pressure with peace. I believe in this quote from Russell M. Nelson, “The joy we can feel has little to do with the circumstances of our lives and everything to do with the focus of our lives.” I want to encourage all of us to develop our focus on the positive!You have distinct and special gifts and talents that you are meant to share with the people around you.

    Ep. 142: Working Through Depression by Learning Optimism Part 5

    If depression is a disorder of thinking, then pessimism and rumination add fuel to the fire, and it’s not the kind of fuel you want driving you, is it?
    It’s here, it’s finally here, the fifth and final episode in this series about Learning Optimism.
    I hope you’ve enjoyed this deep dive into this topic as much as I have.
    If you’re someone who is tired of feeling pessimistic and negative all the time, you have probably found a lot of value in this series.
    Even if it’s something you only find yourself doing now and then, this is still a skill worth learning.

    Ep. 141: Working Through Depression by Learning Optimism Part 4

    Get some distance between you and your thoughts.
    Hold it out away from you and really look at it, actually hold your hand out away from your body and visualize the thought sitting on your hand.
    Is it true?
    Is it?
    Is this a belief that you want to hold onto OR
    Can you let it go… just let it float away like a cloud in the bright blue sky?
    Yes, you can really just decide to do that.
    That’s what thinking about your thinking can do for you.

    Ep. 140: Working Through Depression by Learning Optimism Part Three

    When you can find temporary and specific reasons for why things are happening, that’s when you feel hope.
    If you feel like something is permanent, that creates helplessness.
    If you feel like bad things happen in every part of your life, the space it takes up in your mind, that also creates helplessness.
    And when you start to feel helpless, hope isn’t easily available to you.

    Ep139: Working Through Depression by Learning Optimism Part Two

    Becoming optimistic can be as simple as learning a set of skills that help you talk to yourself from a more encouraging viewpoint when you encounter personal failures.
    Maybe by paying attention, you start to notice some of the unconscious conversations you are having in your head.
    When you start looking and noticing, you’ll be surprised how many you may pick up on.
    There’s a lot of storytelling running around freely in your mind.
    No wonder you feel weighed down with burdens.
    Many of them are happening without you even knowing it.
