    Triggers Are A Doorway To Healing (Final Episode) – Karen Leslie
    Oct 30 2024
    Cultivating Kindness With Karen How many times have you said "I got triggered" or "that is a trigger for me"? Each time it was likely with the energy that the triggers were something to bad or something to avoid. Triggers are a reminder that you have some healing you could look at. How about changing that mindset, or belief, that triggers are to be avoided and see them as an opportunity for personal healing. Does this change in belief mean those triggers will no longer be uncomfortable or even painful? No, however, with this change in your thinking you will be able to approach them, and work with them, in a way that will eventually lesson their impact on you. Perhaps even dissolve all impact one day. This week is Karen Leslie, Stress Recovery Expert and Educator's, last live episode of Cultivating Kindness with Karen. All previous episodes will still be available for everyone to listen to in the future. Join Karen this week for how to turn those triggers into deep personal healing that could have the potential to change your life.

  • Stop Defending Your Choices – Karen Leslie

    Stop Defending Your Choices – Karen Leslie
    Sep 18 2024
    Cultivating Kindness With Karen Being strong at defending your decisions or choices is seen as a great strength of character. It may secure you a seat on the Debating Team at school, or a position as a negotiator for employment. The difficulties can arise when defending your choices becomes a common practice in your life. Doors get opened that can lead to regret, disappointment and even feelings of failure. Feeling the need to defend yourself leads you down a path that often ends in the opposite direction to where you desire to be. Being in the energy of feeling you need to defend yourself often results in you stepping out of your power and strength; not stepping into it. Join Karen Leslie, Stress Recovery Expert and Speaker, to gain a clearer understanding as to how you have been working with the energy of "defending". Learn how and when to bring this energy in so it helps you in being grounded and empowered.

    Sep 11 2024
    Cultivating Kindness With Karen Many people desire to light up the room, or space, they are in. Some from ego, some from desire to be seen and some for healing. No matter what the origin, to light up a room requires intention and follow through. The first question is where does this desire come from?
