I promise myself almost every morning that I'll meditate and if I'm being honest, it's only 50% of the time that I hold true to that promise.

Once I walk out the door or get going into my day, I forget about my meditation practice until I am stressed out and forced to take a time out, but what if it didn't have to be that way?

The good news is, it doesn't!  Research actually shows that if you are trying to establish a meditation routine, one of the best places to do it is actually at a work, and the results are always a more happy and more peaceful state.

So how can you get Zen? And why do you want to add this 3 min practice to your life?  Find out now as Lucia is joined by meditation guru Swami Varadan.  Swami and Lucia will share their own personal experiences with meditation at work, how and why you MUST give it a try, and the results that will lead to a happier and healthier work life!

Once a week we like to give a mood booster to get your weekend started right!  (Disclaimer: this movie may not be suitable for younger seekers.)

I was sick last weekend and took some time for R&R that helped clear up my cold with a quickness. (That, a heavy dose of Vitamin C and some of my magic smoothie potion. Will share more on that in another post!)

While I was relaxing I wanted to watch a movie to lift my mood, self esteem and do more than just make me laugh.  I found one that accomplished it all, I Feel Pretty!  Full disclosure, I am not a huge Amy Schumer fan. (Sorry Amy!) Yet this movie hit the spot.

Here is why:

If you listened to last week's show you heard Roelin from Mind5 Training talk about ways to start to change your mindset and get happier, healthier and more mentally tough.  We gave you some of the basic ways to get started, but what if you could make your mind a fortress and help others do the same? What if you could have the mind and life you dreamed of? Well, you can and this method and Roe can help get you there!

I've started one of her trainings and have to say from personal experience, her methods work. (Check out my video with more details coming soon!) After talking to Roe, we wanted to do more & offer more training to people who wanted to really dive in and change their minds and lives! So the result, (drum roll, please...) WE HAVE A SPECIAL PROGRAM INVITE JUST FOR THE SEEKERHOOD!

For the first time in the US, Roe has offered to open her training to the Seekerhood at a special discounted price! This exclusive offer is for the serious seeker who really is dedicated to changing their mindset and possibly helping others do the same.

Work is stressful.  Regardless of what you do, 1 in 8 people report being stressed while at their job.  So what can you do to THRIVE in mind and body and enjoy your day at the office?  On today's show, we have the Founder of Mind5 Training, Roelien Luijt, to help all of us thrive under work pressure and live our best life in the new year! 

Join Lucia as she dives into simple and real life solutions on living your work life well and shares her own personal struggles as well as well as Roelien's story of her journey to a healthy mind, body and spirit in life and work!

Also, stayed tuned for a BIG announcement this week on Mind5 & WellSeekers coming together to help you grow in happiness and health in 2019!

Last Saturday night I was stressed.  It was cold and rainy. I had not worked out and had a list a mile long to accomplish. I needed a mood booster.  Luckily, at this point, I have come far enough in my journey to know that things like sugar or copious amounts of coffee don't boost my mood, but make it worse. Music always seems to hit the spot.

Being a musician, I have always found that there is just something magical in the progression of finely strung together notes that can change the way I am thinking or feeling.  Getting lost in a rhythm, or the words of a melody makes everything seem okay, if even for the three minute duration of the song. Music has been a root source of motivation since I can remember. It can make me weep, make me forget a bad day and most importantly, make me dance. Life is stressful, adulting isn't always fun, so when there is a chance to embrace the things that bring me intense amounts of joy, I take them and one of this things has always been and will always be, music.

Families come with all sorts of dysfunction, but one pervasive issue plaguing families are individuals with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD).  Individuals who are truly narcissist can cause great tense and strife in families and leave use confused by their actions and sometimes our own.

So what is NPD?  Does a family member, friend or significant other have this issue?  On today's show Lucia talks about simple ways to spot the disorder and what to do if you know someone in your life who suffers from it as well.

She is joined by Family Life Coach and Blended and Black Founder, Naja Hall, as they discuss this issue plaguing families, especially at the holiday time!
