Change your emotional habits and get over stressful times like a honey badger
This week has been one of those weeks.
Our internet cable literally broke down, the dryer must be fixed, and we have a roof construction going on in the house. The cleaning lady rescheduled. My little one started with a part-time nanny and I'm dealing with separation anxiety, probably more than the baby.
All the scheduling and rescheduling take time and so much energy!
People are coming in and out of the house all the time.
Men are climbing ladders outside my windows, looking in when I'm breastfeeding the baby in the living room or working in my office.
There is no privacy for the person who needs a lot of if and alone time to digest the world around me.
All this could drive me nuts. But, I'm not allowing it to happen.
I have seen this so, so many times and it’s time to take a different, healthier and happier route.
If I would let my emotions take the lead and start stressing, I give my power away and it all goes worse and it will take longer to get over it.
Eventually, I would burst the pressure to someone else, like we often do if we are not able to connect and feel our feelings, and that’s not right either.
Instead of losing my nerve and wasting my energy I observe and choose to respond and react to stressful emotions and chaos calmly with high self-awareness.
Our emotional reactions are learned habits.
We learn all the habits by repetition and by watching others. The way to change our habits is to turn inward and start making a difference. It’s very delicate but the impact in our life is huge: it’s the way to change your life and create new, better paths.
So I breathe, and consciously release the emotions of overwhelm and focus on getting through the week positively, taking care of things one by one and staying present in the moment.
I remind myself to stay centered and grounded like a honey badger. Honey badgers don’t care but focus on essentials, on what they want.
(If you haven't seen the narrated viral video about the crazy nastyass honey badgers, it's super funny. It tells something about my sense of humor. )
Also, laughing reduces the cortisol hormones in the body and calms down the sympathetic nervous system. Watch something funny or shake your ass when life gets too serious or you find it hard to calm down to meditate on it. Like kids in general, our inner child loves when we let loose and get playful.
It would be impossible for me to go through this week without other people’s help.
I appreciate the abundant amount of help. I appreciate help is available. All these people help our family enormously with their knowledge.
For a long time, it was really hard for me to ask for help from others.
I've always had this mentality of a super strong, over-functioning, independent Finnish woman who doesn't need anyone's help.
My old self was a kind of woman who can build her own house by herself if needed.
This is what one construction guy said to me years ago when he renovated my apartment in Helsinki after I showed him how the kitchen needed to be built. I wondered why I paid him as I could have done it myself.
I still remember how I felt inside that time.
After ending a 7-year relationship I felt completely lost, and my brain was scattered due to insomnia and the anxiety I suffered. I had no idea what I should do next in my life, so I tried to over-control everything I could and operated completely from my masculine side. I didn’t allowing myself to stop as I was so afraid of what I would need to face.
I was almost collapsing then but I pushed through. I managed to keep it together until I collapsed a year later.
It was then when I realized that I can't, and don't need to, try to survive on my own and do everything by myself.
I realized there are people who were actually able and willing to help me.
Little by little I started asking for more help in different areas of life.
Today it’s much easier for me as I’ve learned to ask for help and I know when I need to invest in myself and when my own resources are not enough. The most important thing is that I’ve learned to receive help.
As I’ve changed my behavior, I have noticed there’s abundance amount of helpful and kind people around me. All we need to do is to be open, reach out and ask for help.
Help is always showing up in a form or another. Sometimes it shows up as a person, in the form of group or company, a program, a book or online resource, or just a message that is pointing to the new direction.
Sometimes it asks courage to get over my fears to receive it and give myself an opportunity for growth and expansion. May it be personal health and wellbeing, family issue or my work and business.
Our level of self-worth measures the ability of receiving.
I believe we can learn to do pretty much anything successfully if we just put our energy and efforts in. I could still do all kind of things by myself but nowadays, if it’s not my cup of tea, I don’t want to.
I don’t need to know everything or do everything by myself, anymore.
It’s much easier to have set boundaries and focus on what we are best at and absolutely love to do. Let other people do use their expertise.
The most difficult part to getting over stressful emotions and moments is to learn to step out of your own resistant ego-mind and give yourself a permission to feel happy and good about yourself.
That can only happen when you are present and mindful about your thoughts, your feelings and the chatter of your ego-mind.
You have the power to change your reality and rise your energy by changing your emotional habits:
Watch and observe your emotional reactions and responses.
Get out from your own way and emotions.
Make changes consciously.
Choose to behave differently.
Repeat and learn.
Don’t worry if you don’t get it right immediately but be determined. Life will give you as many rounds of practice as needed, until you have changed the old pattern.
Help is available when life feels complicated and it's hard to see clearly what to do and where to go next.
Or your internet cable needs fixing.
What is the area of life that you could use some help with?
Much love,
Jenni
6 factors to manifest anything you want
To create a life of your desires you need to know what you really want.
The biggest obstacle to many people and why they feel stuck in their life and unable to change the old repetitive cycles, is because they miss the big picture. They don’t really know what kind of changes they want and what kind of future they are aiming to create.
Often they limit themselves because they don’t believe they are deserving and worthy of having what they want. They stay in victim mentality and believe the past will repeat itself automatically. These limiting beliefs and mindsets are blocking the way.
I know the feeling. For a long time I thought that we don’t have the power to change things and that events happen because they just happen; so I kept suffering. I gave the decision-making to other people and thought it was the universe’s call to decide for me.
I was afraid things would get worse, and so they did year by year.
Until I was ready to take responsibility and asked: what if it was me who created it all?
It was a profound thought and empowered me to start my personal happiness project, which led to me changing my life completely by learning how to be a conscious creator.
Setting clear visions and intentions for the future is crucial for anyone who wants to lead their life consciously and increase their happiness, success and wellbeing - on their own terms.
My approach to manifesting and creating life consciously is unique, as I don’t only use these principles for the big long-term visions and goals, but I also teach how to use them on a daily basis.
We are the creators and can shift our lives by making these 6 elements part of daily life.
Real happiness can only be experienced in the moments, and those moments set the foundation for your future. The better you feel about yourself, the faster you attract good things in your life.
6 Factors to Manifest Anything You Want
1. Stop acknowledging where you are at and what is going on in your life right now.
It was just recently when one of my lovely clients said: “I didn’t even realize how I actually don’t know myself anymore.” Busy life disconnects and if we have to stop often to see where we are at and check in if we are moving to right direction.
2. Get clear on what you don’t want.
I know it sounds counter-intuitive and someone could think it’s against the growth mindset and setting positive expectations and intentions that I always talk about. But this doesn’t mean staying in the negative or focusing on it. It’s actually a way to declutter the mind and throw out the bad stuff. Getting clear on what you don’t want helps you clarify what you actually want!
3. List what you do want.
Reversing the first list helps you get started and then it’s easier to allow more ideas to come! It’s easier to start if you focus on one area of life, i.e. relationships, career, money, health, or yourself. Go into detail. Have more than enough intentions, ideas, feelings and go above what your common sense believes you can have. Simply allow yourself to pour out everything you want. Focus only on fulfilling your desires by opening your mind to impossible desires and visions.
4. Clear your unconscious limiting beliefs, and emotional blocks.
Remove the underlying, often unconscious thought patterns and habits that are blocking your way. These are simply what you have learned in your past based on your earlier experiences. Make peace with them. To change your reality consciously, and get what you want, you need to believe and feel that what you want is possible and available to you; this is needed to manifest your desires successfully. Work and release your beliefs, elevate your thinking and up level your old mindset so that you can align your mind and your feelings with your future visions. Become aware of your thoughts and feelings, and keep shifting them all the time.
5. Use your imagination, feelings and visualize.
Visualizing simply means that you imagine and feel your future desires and you connect with them deeply, as though you have already achieved them. See the end result in your mind’s eye; feel it with your feelings; and experience in your body and your mind that it has already happened. No need to focus on the hows, own your visions, and you will find a way. Magnetize your visions by doing a vision board - make them really clear to yourself. Visualize your desires daily! It brings a lot of energy, inspiration and joy, and helps you believe in your visions.
6. Focus on the now and take inspired action.
Let go of the idea and the outcome, detach from it: don’t become obsessed and needy about your desires. Surrender to it and open yourself to receiving. But, don’t just sit and wait for things to happen, you need to move things forward. This is something most people don’t realize. You need to take inspired, conscious action towards your desires and goals by thinking and then doing what you can do now and act when the new ideas show up. Then you have done what’s needed so act like you already have it and trust it’s all happening. Make your days as good and enjoyable as you can - even though things are not yet as you wish them to be, focus on seeing and embracing the good side of it.
These principles are the keys for manifesting, that work for anyone who wants to start leading their life and create their reality consciously - from day to day life to long-term visions.
One of the most powerful ways to start changing things in your life is to discover and connect with your real future visions and real desires.
