How to Turn Your Toxic Past into a Peaceful Future #249

Imagine you're at the grocery store, checking out a batch of mixed berries - raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries. There's one raspberry starting to spoil, and it’s affecting the others.  This is a lot like our lives. Just like one bad fruit can spoil the rest, the people and environments we surround ourselves with can impact us in similar ways. I was actually picking through these berries before this podcast, and it struck me how this is a perfect analogy for our lives. When one piece of fruit goes bad, it can spread to others, just like negativity or toxicity in one part of our life can spread to others. It's contagious.  And even though some fruits might look good, they can be tainted by the bad ones they're close to. This is why it's crucial to be mindful of who we surround ourselves with. You might think someone is a good influence, but who are they hanging around with? Their negativity can infect them and, in turn, affect you.  While picking the berries, I was careful not to choose ones too close to the spoiled ones. It's the same in life. Surround yourself with greatness, positivity, and inspiration, and be mindful of their circles, too, because it can impact you. One thing that also matters a lot is being clear-headed and peaceful inside. Peace of mind isn't just something nice to have - it's something we should actively seek. It's key to making good choices in life and getting away from bad situations and people.  It's a deliberate choice to look after our mental and emotional health. I always talk about being in charge of your own life and that we're not just shaped by our past, but we're also in charge of building our future.  So, this episode is like a wake-up call for you to think about your choices and start healing your toxic past. Let's grow towards a peaceful future together.  Tune in, and let me help you find that strength inside you. This is a choice you'll be glad you made.  Key Takeaways: Intro (00:00) Unlock Your Greatness Conference (00:31) Selecting your circle - the fruit analogy (02:15)  Just keep going (06:45)  The importance of putting oneself first (12:45) Spend time with yourself (21:49)  The value of life experiences (24:25)  Overcoming triggers by addressing unhealed wounds and insecurities (35:24)  Recap (41:04) Additional Resources: ➡️ Live Event Sydney 4th Jan 2024 “Unlock Your Greatness Conference”  - - -  ➡️ Subscribe to Sunshine Amberzena – Click here for Amber jewelry and fashion accessories live auctions on YouTube - - -   🤝 To work with me, book your Brainstorm Call here 👉 Check out ⁠my website⁠ 👉 Join my ⁠Facebook Group⁠ 👉 Check out my ⁠YouTube channel⁠     - - - Reach out to me on social media: 🔹 Twitter  🔹 Instagram  🔹 Instagram podcast   🔹 Facebook   - - - 💬 To get started, DM me on Instagram with the words "I want inner peace" - - - The Luke Mind Power Podcast is an empowering show committed to helping you unlock your full potential and transform your life.
