Calmer in 5

Growing up, we didn't always have a ton of money.  But my Mom and Dad always made our birthdays special.  Mom would cook our favorite food.  Those meals transported me to a place where nothing was ever wrong.

We have hands and fingers, but those aren't the only tools to experience touch.  It's time to feel the warmth of an embrace,the rain on your face or the gentle touch of your partner.

Wouldn't it stink to not be able to smell the flowers.  That is a cliche saying, right?  Stop and smell the flowers? Tough without a nose

It is pretty apparent that our sense of sight is the most used.  From the moment we get up in the morning to the moment we go to sleep, our eyes clue us in to our surroundings.  Why not use them for something more tranquil?

Music hath charms to soothe the savage breast, but so do a variety of other sounds.  How noisy is your world.

I go to the movies often.  Well, as often as I can depending on what is playing that's good.  Some times that means I don't go for a while!  But in regards to sci-fi movies, what have they been telling us about life outside our world lately.  Let's talk about it.

In the United States, slow is seen as unproductive.  It's funny how misperceptions arise.  Those who hurry are less effective than those who take their time. Those people will be on the planet longer too.

Whether it/'s a guide in a meditation or a flesh and blood advisor, we all can you some guidance.  Today I talk about the importance of guidance in becoming calmer.

I remember driving past the dump on my bike when I was 10.  You could smell it a half a mile away.  Now when I go to visit my Mom and Dad I see a transfer station where all refuse is collected and disposed of properly.  Most importantly, recycling is common place now.  What steps are you taking to ensure the health of our planet?  

Every trait humans want to have exists in the animal kingdom.  Which one is it for you?

Some things are tough to get rid of, especially if they have sentimental value.  But if you haven't used something in over a year, heirloom or not, why is it still with you?

If you are looking to pass on then you can do it faster than expected if you have a crusty view of the world.  Yippee, pessimists die sooner than optimists.  So let's talk about how to beat that cynical side

There are images we see ad nauseum brainwashing us into looking a certain way.  Many times it is under the guise of fitness.  The real truth is that fitness and health have nothing to do with how you look.

Your actions, thoughts and perceptions of the world are very closely related to the people you hang out with.  Shouldn't you make sure the people you associate with are going in the same direction as you?

Take a trip today my friends.  Go back to when you had the most refreshing drink in your life.

we have all thrown in the towel at some point in our live.  But what was the impetus to do so?  We will talk about that today on 5 Minute Mojo

What we focus on grows, so make sure you don't add fuel to your miserable days with added attention.

It may sound, boring, but we are a collection of habits.  Our brains like that too.  it makes the day a little easier.  But, what habits do you have? Let's talk about it.

Giving seems like a cliche topic, but is it?  You won't think so after you listen to today's episode.  Besides, it comes with inspiration, action and introspection.  If you can't become better after today's episode, we gotta talk! 

Today is Friday so I have a question for you that is both light and profound.

Food and eating is something we all deal with daily(hopefully) daily.  Yet when we eat we often times don't taste the flavors.  It's time to change that. Be mindful when you chew

Today I clear up the contradiction that no one is watching you and everyone is.

There are so many words in your language, which ones describe who you are? Which ten?

When you open your mouth you let the world know who you are, good or bad.  The same thing happens online.

As small as the world may seem, when we are having a tough time it can seem very big.  With that, we can feel very alone.  Today I hope to impress upon you that you are never alone.
