Episode 39: Wellness Wealth

 

Part 1: Wise Energy Investment

• How do we spend our most precious human resource, our energy? Focus on the quick wins versus making wise investments into our long-term wellness 🤔
• Our different energies, spices, and how we might recognise them and also spend them differently 💸
• Key Components 🔑
• Impulse control, Pausing, and SLOWING DOWN are essentials 🚦
• The ultimate Marshmallow Test! 🍭
• Forgoing dopamine and/or endorphine hits takes patience and acceptance 🙏
• Just a few of my own vulnerabilities and how I notice ways in which I utterly waste various energies 🐃💩😅

Part 2: God, Grant Me the Serenity to Cut the Shit

• My own awareness adventure started many years ago with the Serenity Prayer, to this day it boils down to self-acceptance 😇💖
• Nuances between leaning into things that will take effort because it will pay off in the long run, and saying F*&$!-it without wasting energy needlessly... Spoiler alert, there are no black & white rules! 💪🤷
• The benefit of allowing my definitions of 'healthy discipline' to shift and suit my current wellness needs... as well as some more 'typical' examples that may resonate with the broader audience 😅😎

Part 3: Overcoming Default Settings

• It's all about adding to our wellness wealth by making wise energy investments and becoming aware of areas we're prone to be a bit wasteful with our energies 🤑
• Being a Human is hard and some of our thoughts & emotions are rubbish! 🦄
• Regret (particularly upon reflection) as an apt wellness wealth energy investment check! ✅
• If & when our default settings leave us broke, unwell in some way, or feeling the 'naughty stick's' epic sting, it's time to build some awareness, and practice making wiser investments 🧘
