What goes on in your mind has the power to change your life. But when you have a million thoughts racing through your head all at once, it’s hard to focus on the present moment.
In Episode 16 of Season 2, we are joined by Iman Boundaoui to discuss mindfulness, cherishing the essence of time and how to better make sense of our mental chatter.
One of the hardest quests in life is finding your life’s purpose. When it comes to choosing a career path, many of us just settle. Iman says the journey isn’t always an easy one, we have to do the work instead of waiting for our purpose to show up at our doorstep.
Now let’s talk about the unconscious mind. It has the ability to control everything in your life from your feelings, to behaviors and your experiences with others - if you allow it to do so that is. It will force you to be highly critical of yourself, thus causing you to drift away from your authentic self. Thankfully, Iman gives us a step-by-step guide on how to evict these unwanted thoughts.
We are also in a time where we are connected to the entire world with just a press of a button, yet it’s so easy to feel alone. You would think that with the endless devices and apps that help connect us to our family and friends it would be nearly impossible to feel lonely.
But many of us find ourselves feeling completely on our own, even in a room filled to the brim with loved ones. When it comes to loneliness and disconnection she offers advice on how we can overcome these issues before they turn into something more serious.
We conclude with discussing the value of time. We know that it passes by with every blink of an eye, so why do we spend our time with things that are not beneficial to us? Iman explains ways that we can shift our perspective to see time as an asset worth more than just hours of bad reality tv shows or a dead-end full-time job.
The goal is to live a happy and fulfilled life and with Iman’s advice we hope to shift gears and immerse ourselves in the present moment!
