I am grateful to report that I enjoyed another great day of exemplary health and it allowed me to take care of some things – such as the legal papers for my power of attorney and medical directives. Ugh. I also met with staff at a facility to explore options around assistance and possible “day care”.  It was a productive day and I got to be with some wonderful, caring people.  It was also a day that did not meet my need for autonomy, independence or respect.  By the end of the day I was exhausted and headed to what author Brene’ Brown describes as a shame spiral.

Because of this wonderful program, Mediate Your Life, I was able to reach out to an empathy buddy that walked me through a session of feelings and needs.  In less than 30 minutes I went from feeling degradation and shame to feeling heard, understood, loved, cared for, hopeful and even courageous.

Now that I have clarity around my feelings and needs, I can also process and practice communicating those feelings and needs to the people I will continue to interact with in a loving way that honors them and gives them the respect they deserve.  Because of this training, I will be able to communicate authentically from love with honesty.  And I'm a novice!

So, for me, MYL doesn't just navigate and resolve internal and external conflicts.  It is also a spiritual tool that helps each of us remember who we truly are so that we can communicate from our Higher selves and promote peace and love.  It is a way of life I aspire to every day.  Today, thanks to this training and the wonderful people living this program, I reiterate that I went from resentment, anger and fear to peace, love and empathy in less than 30 minutes.  Wow.

My friend J, producer extraordinaire, created a video that is a beautiful expression of MYL.  Click here to watch.  You'l be glad you did.  And they offer a free practice call on the 17th (info here).  MYL can change your life.  I’m just sayin’.  ;))
