How to Handle Change

Change is a part of life. It is how we grow, it is how we become more of our true selves, but it can also be hard, and painful. Change can mean losing someone you love, it can also mean something as trivial as dealing with an illness or a child who needs more of your attention for the day. In this episode we talk about the various ways we can handle these changes. We discuss how we can center ourselves to get into a calmer state of mind and be able to choose our response to the changes that happen in our lives. As we gain greater awareness of the needs around us, we will be guided through intuition or inspiration to know what steps we need to take to deal with the changes. In addition we learn that is also the way we receive insight into what is most important at that time and where we learn what our true priorities are.
