MoWorld: Boredom

Boredom

by Madisyn Taylor

The sense of feeling bored in life can be an indicator that we need to be proactive in creating change.

Sometimes we feel that things aren't moving along fast enough for us and that the world is passing us by. It may be that time seems to stand still and that we are simply bystanders in our own lives. Other times it might appear that there is nothing new left for us to experience and that we are locked into a never-ending cycle of stasis. If we take the time to listen to these feelings we will notice that there is probably more going on beneath the surface, like our apprehension to venture out into the unknown. By taking a new look at how we live our lives, however, it will be easier to break through our sense of boredom and enter into a more positive state of being.

When life seems monotonous, it is usually an indication that there is something we need to change. Boredom can easily lead us down the path to despondency. Acknowledging our feelings and then setting the intention to alter just one small thing in our life can give us a much more affirmative outlook. This act of change allows us to step outside of ourselves and discover new and exciting things that are often already present in our everyday lives. Simple things such as eating a healthier diet, taking a new class, or joining a club are all ways in which we can go beyond our comfort zone and explore the wonders that exist all around us. Keep in mind that the moment we do something different from our usual routine, the more fresh energy, hope, and blessings we will manifest in our life. What this means is that we'll no longer see things as being tedious but will instead realize the preciousness of everything.

Being able to integrate these subtle changes on a daily basis allows us to recognize the miracles that are our lives. Even though we may think of change as doing something life-altering or drastic, gentle transitions from our habitual ways of doing things and an appreciation of all life offers us will truly bring about positive and lasting transformation.

Heal Subconscious Blocks to Weight Loss

by Sandy Zeldes

Achieving an ideal weight shouldn't be about diets and deprivation, but about an inner knowing of what to eat and when, and letting go of anything that holds you back from being able to do that. Even if you consider yourself a health conscious, spiritual person, you may still be struggling with emotional eating and constant food cravings. There are many unconscious dietary, lifestyle and emotional causes for weight gain, ranging from food habits to emotional stress, negative beliefs, trauma, and patterns picked up from childhood and throughout our lives that inform our behaviors. When we heal the underlying unconscious causes to the issue, we free ourselves from the struggle with weight and our health. This course gives you simple but powerful nutrition, lifestyle and energy clearing tools to make weight loss, and creating a lifestyle that supports it, easier to achieve. One of the things that makes this course special, and different from so many other programs, is the use of EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), to permanently release some of the most common unconscious blocks to weight loss. These techniques are simple and very effective at creating a shift in awareness, behavior, cravings and weight loss.
