Online Recovery Support – Episode 106
Tonight I talk about emotions. scarcity, fear and……..how do I know what the truth is? Physical, emotional, mental responses to our situations. Listen to your body.
How do I know when it is time for treatment, abstinence, etc.
Clinical definition of a problem? When my behavior is having a negative effect on the quality of my life or the lives of my family and loved ones.
Don’t follow what someone else is saying, listen to your heart.
And I close the show with some quotes from Joseph Campbell, like……..
“Where you stumble and fall, there you will find gold.”

Online Recovery Support – Episode 104
Forgiveness – What it is and what it isn’t. Forgiveness can be a verb. Much like love, it isn’t always an action that is expressed outwardly, but can and sometimes should be. You can allow forgiveness to happen at any time, any place, with anyone. This is includes forgiveness of yourself. Why would you not want to forgive? Resentment? Fear? Anger? When you want to forgive, take that a moment and feel what it means to forgive. Feel the release and freedom that it gives your soul from the anger and frustration. Recognize the Peace that settles in.
Do you want to be right, or do you want to be happy?
If you are unable to love yourself, how can you expect to love another?
Feeling open, vulnerable and exposed.
Being open to knowing yourself fully, and working through your own feelings helps you live a sincere and empowering life.
A poem from Rumi, and more on the work of Brene Brown. Tonight on ORS Radio or, download from iTunes.

Online Recovery Support – Episode 103
Tonight on ORS Radio…………
What’s happening right now that we’re missing?
We’re on a journey. We get focused on where we are going and forget that we are in the “right here and now”. Look at what we are missing! What are you suppressing? What are you not allowing? What have you forgotten about yourself?
Imagine the experience of sinking into yourself, melting. Allowing you to be and become all that you have forgotten that you already are. “More perfect than you already are, you cannot be.” What is your intention for yourself and this life you are living? Align yourself with what is in your highest good and purpose. Follow your true path. Is it possible that you are really an amazing being capable of accomplishing the incredible?
Limitations. We put roadblocks in our way to prevent progress. How does that serve us? Why do we self sabotage? What if I simply let go and allowed my life to unfold? What would that look like? How would I feel? Bravely step into what you know is right for you. Allow that which is not authentically yours, to fall away. Be YOU! Listen to your body. What is it telling you?
