Live Mindfully with Lori Moore

Every time this happens to me, my go-to is to tell my mind that enough is enough and every time this does not work. Fortunately I do have some tried and true techniques that do. Before we can stop thinking about the argument or the thing that has upset us we need to process it. You may be thinking you don't have time for this step, but trust me, this will take FAR less time to do then having...

This week I am talking about my version of the three keys to wellness and as usual, it probably wont be what you're thinking. Over time, and from various places, we have been sold a version of wellness that, to me, comes off as unachievable and harmful. Everything in wellness seems to be complicated; involving a strict level of balance that doesn't exist in the modern world and consisten...

This week I am talking all about the science backed theory of how micro changes have a longer lasting affect on our wellness than big changes. This theory has started to make its way into more conversations, especially with health professionals, as evidence continues to mount on how ineffective our goal planning is when it comes to improving our health. Research out of the U.S. shows that 75% of t...

In today's episode we explore the notion of filling our cups. What is means, how we do it, and most importantly why we should. Feeling depleted, unmotivated and exhausted, then this is everything you need to shift that energy ♡ Episode resources: Article: To be happier, should you focus on yourself or others?: https://greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/to_be_happier_should_you_focus_on_you...

Relax, nothing is under control ~ Adi Da Samraj - is one of my all time favourite quotes and certainly appropriate here. In today's episode we look at the art of slowing down, what the benefits are; as always, what the research says and why rushing isn't getting you anywhere faster. Today's episode is short and sweet for a reason ♡ To learn more about the art of slowing down and wha...

Today's episode title is a little tongue in cheek. OF COURSE we should be kind to one another, but before we do that, do you know what being kind means? Today we take a look at kindness and people-pleasing and the fine line that exists between the two. Today's topic is one that I have been mulling over in my head for many many years and finally, I think I have a really strong understandi...

Perfectionism was first discussed in psychiatry and psychologist circles in 1965 when M H Hollender described perfectionism from a psycho-pathological perspective as a demand to oneself or others of a higher quality of performance than that required by the situation. In most cases, I think most of us assume that some levels of perfectionism are important. It's important to do things to a high...

Ahhh the dreaded to-do list is causing a great deal of stress and overwhelm for a lot of us. In this episode I talk about the research completed by Dr Libby Weaver on successful people and how they manage their to-do lists much more effectively. Listen in now. Today's one is a must for anyone who wants to finally get to the end of that to-do list! To listen to Dr Libby talk more about to-do l...

I remember watching an episode of the Oprah Winfrey Show way back when and Oprah saying that she could make a show out of anyone. She didn't need a special guest or a celebrity. In fact, she could pull a person out of the audience and create a great show from that, which is exactly what she did.  Why? Because we all have great stories and great potential within each of us. Each of us has expe...

Overwhelm is a feeling we are all familiar with; that tightness in the chest, the breath catching in the throat and all of a sudden our clear thinking is gone. Overwhelm can send us spiraling and in today's episode I explain what it is, how it impacts our body and my 3 tips to overcoming it in less then 10 minutes. Thank you so much for listening. If you have a topic you would love to get my...

Our kids are incredible. They push us outside of our comfort zones, they mirror to us the things that most need to be seen and accepted within ourselves and they show us a love, innocence and kindness that is hard to find anywhere else. But there is no question that parenting is the hardest thing you will ever do in this life. Today’s topic is one that is very close to my heart. It’s an open and h...

Our mind is one of the most powerful tools we have at our disposable, but many of us sometimes feel like our minds are the enemy. With constant negative or unfavorable thoughts, holding us back from our true potential. In today's episode I'll teach you a little technique called re-framing and also explain the real reason thoughts like this exist. Starting from today, let's turn thes...

Most of us have been exposed to a goal setting experience, but have you ever set an intention?

Hello and welcome to the very first episode of Live Mindfully with Lori Moore. In today’s episode we dive into what mindfulness is and more importantly isn’t! When I googled “What is mindfulness” I received 611,000,000 results back and to be honest, most of them left me more confused then educated. So when mindfulness has become a global phenomena and every wellness guru in town is promoting its m...
