Stress Therapy with Cheri Flake: Meditation & Stress Relief for Real Life15 Aug 2023

How To Win The Private Battles In Your Mind~Part-2: Your Body

Our brains are actually wired up to prevent us from changing! Sometimes our mind uses our body to get us to stop doing any new behavior simply because it’s new ~ even if it’s good for us, or even our life-long dream!

Today we are going to learn the tricks that our brains play on us to get us to stop running, meditating, whatever thing you’re trying to make habitual. Finally, you can win the battle in your head and get whatever you want into your life. This is part 2 of a 3 part series. I think you’re going to be quite surprised as to how your body is tricking you into giving up and you might not even realize it!

*Note to listener: I had some microphone troubles on this episode. I apologize for the fair audio quality.

In this episode we will learn:
~How your ego uses your own body to get you to stop meditating, running, writing, whatever it is that you truly want to be doing!
~How to know “who” is talking to you so you can win that battle in your mind!
~Breath Watching Meditation
