5 Small Mindset Shifts that are Improving My Life.

[@muchelleb]

I'm taking an intentional break for the next two weeks so I won’t be uploading over here. I’ll probably be a little more active over on Instagram during that time if you’d like to keep up with me there. I’ll see you soon! 💛

[@sophieisprofound]

Enjoy a well-deserved break! ✨

[@bhsprinkle]

Wonderful. I think an intentional pause is a great thing. I follow you over on Instagram as well so that's nice too. You are so motivational in helping me with my mindset shifts. Thank you.

Wow, you are too beautiful whomever sees you shall believe that God is real, and whenever I see you I am always in a dream, and when we wake up we all will realize that all this life was nothing but a dream and that only God is whats true and real. I dont know how can atheists believe that such a very attractive beauty queen like you came from monkeys hahaha 😄 There was a teacher whom didn't believe in the existence of God, He said to his students do you see God?, the students replied no we don't see God, so the teacher said if you don't see God it means there is no God, then a smart student stood up and said to the other students hey guys do you see the teachers brain?, then the students replied no we don't see the teachers brain, the student then said then the teacher is crazy he got no brain :0) عن الإمام علي "عليه السلام": عَجِبتُ لمن شك في الله، وهو يرى خلق الله Imam Ali, peace be upon him, said: I cant understand how a man-man/women-can doubt in the existence of God-/Allah-although he sees His creation. وعن الإمام علي "عليه السلام": عَجِبتُ لمن أنكر النشأة الأخرى، وهو يرى النشأة الأولى Imam Ali, peace be upon him, said: I cant understand how any one denies the second life although he/she seen the first life-this life is actually a living proof of both the existence of its creator, as well as a clear proof that indicates that another life in heaven or hell may also be a very possible chance as well-. وعن الإمام علي "عليه السلام": عَجِبتُ لعامر دار الفناء، وتارك دار البقاء Imam Ali, peace be upon him, said: I cant understand how any one inhabits this transient abode-and is so indulged in it-but ignores the everlasting hereafter abode, ​one God for all of us, all the universe shows unity with diversity, there are different things different creatures and different materials but are all made of particles and atoms ​Even if we will assume that there will not be an atom left of you after death, you still have proven as a created being that there is a Creator,you proved the existence of God even if you do not believe in God. ​God initiated everything and he redo too and it is evident. ​this life is temporary while the next is forever eternal either in paradise or burning in Hell fire good qualities are beneficial, and bad qualities are harmful Be good dont be bad and refrain from sins and obey God and worship him alone in the way he wants to be worshiped and you will be saved from Hell fire and will enter paradise and be happy forever ​Whoever does an atom’s weight of good will see it, and whoever does an atom’s weight of evil will see it, ​or may not see it if God pardons him/her and has mercy on him/her if he/she fixes what he/she has spoiled, in the right time, ​if you be bad to others you hurt your own self, also when you don't do what you should in the right time, having faith in God makes you strong and makes you have hope even when you are weak. ​drinking alcohol damages the liver and the mind, and adultery is not good because it is not true love it is neglect to the lady and to the fetus, and brings sexual diseases. ​while marriage on the other hand, ok it has sex in it, but it is a relationship in which the woman and the fetus are cared for ​as for sodomy-same sex marriage-its bad not part of normal human life &it brings sexual diseases, &eating pork can bring cholesterol&some parasitic worms, ​not cheating, gaining trust, being trust worthy and honest, &having good behavior, brings more money to you and is good for you in the next life too, these are some of the teaching of the prophet Mohammed ​The Messenger of God Muhammad is the most perfect human, and most intelligent man, his mind was the brightest mind, &he is the most merciful of all people, his heart was the biggest heart, but he was firm against every crime, ​&was the most just &kind, and taught every good, taught people to respect &love & care for each other, &for the female, &elder, &children, &to protect the innocent person regardless of what he/she believed, ​(If one of the polytheists seeks protection from you, then grant him protection) Holly Quran, &taught to either forgive the one who wronged you, or be just &fair when retaliating, or to shock the person and enslave his/her heart by being generous &kind. ​who to follow after the prophet?: Even if you may think that all the companions of the Messenger were always good and all of them are like mountains, despite everything that happened between them!! ​the Prophet said: “My family-daughter Fatima the lady of light the lady of heaven and Imam Ali and their great offspring's and special perfect chosen descendants-are like the ark-/ship-of Noah, whomever embarked on it survived, and whomever did not drowned and died. ​&We know that the son of Noah did not embark on the ark/ship of salvation, rather he climbed a mountain and drowned due to the very high tides and because he didn't follow God command. Don't be like him ​spread the light teach what's good &right its best for you and for all and better than letting the wrong things from wrong teachings or bad desires and ill mind happen, prevention is better than cure ,

Happy birthday 🎈🎂🎉🎂

The scar experiment and its results is something that I think I recently noticed: when I became better at loving myself, interactions with strangers felt way better and I was more relaxed, therefore could easier open up and talk to them and had more fun. Even with friends I was more relaxed when I didn't have thoughts of 'will they eventually abandon me' or 'are they friends with me out of pity'. It's incredible how much of your inner thinking not only influences the way you carry yourself but also your interactions and experiences :D

[@terezahankusova8248]

I have the same results 🥰 I'm kindergarten teacher and yesterday come up to my class 19 new 3 y.o. kids first time in kindergarten. Years before I was stressed and soo much tired the first week but this year? I was relaxed and saying to myself it will be okay think positively! Even when my colleague catch COVID 3 days before starting the school i was calmier than ever. Now guess what? Kids aren't crying so much and they are awesome!!! And i have also more organized in my work 🥰🥰🤩

[@annoar9776]

exactly!

[@annoar9776]

the 'non zero' amount thingy is soooo helpful!

[@AussieGem]

The 'expectations' study and theory is so interesting! The same can be said about food expectations too, and now I'll rabbit-hole down some vids of the placebo effect for sure! HA!!! Thanks for creating this video Michelle - hope you're well! Fellow Aussie here - great to have stumbled across your channel! 😍

[@leanneanderson562]

I really like the "bookends" idea. Excited to come back to these when I'm ready for my next book reccomendation.

[@LightnessofJoy]

The 20 minute meditation thing came from TM, and with that particular transcending meditation, they did studies and found that longer periods (of that particular kind of meditation), people felt not as even/rougher afterwards, and below 20 minutes, wasn’t enough for the lasting effect (they did studies on lowered blood pressure, etc.). I can’t remember the exact details as it was a dozen years ago when I learned, but there was a reason for the 20 minute mark, meaning it wasn’t randomly chosen.

[@krishnapriyau.a]

Hi Michelle. I watched one of your video today and this is second video. You are doing great . All the best ❤️

[@44BlueFoxes]

That shade of blue looks really good on you. It really brings out your eyes. It's lovely.

[@susanoneal464]

Could you please share some of the helpful people you follow and podcasts that you love? Please and thank you. Also, the 30 day challenge thT you did about 3 years ago..can you repost those challenges?

[@karlie4974]

I love this new way of ending the videos with book recommendations!!:)

[@bhsprinkle]

Trying new methods, finding what works or doesn't, making adjustments. That's helpful. One thing won't help everyone. We all must discover what works individually. What you said about adjusting pomodoro to work for you is awesome. What you said about expecting certain behaviors bringing about certain behaviors sounds quite accurate. I once thought because I was bullied so poorly everyone was like that. I went to a tech school and found out the majority of my classmates were actually nice and I prejudged them. I explained my behavior, without making excuses, and they were very understanding.

[@princesska382]

Hey ! Could you make a videos on your all time favorite books/ documentary/ person ?🫶🏻💛

[@ShreeyaGurung]

love the last book I really need it

[@mhret]

Hello, I like your book recommendation at the end of your videos, please don't stop. Love all your videos 😍see u in two weeks.

[@goodenoughgirl8102]

So true about gung Ho burnout. Lol. Ugh...and rigid perfectionism. Had to learn the hard way about dealing with rude people. Some of our behaviors and reactions to their rudeness make them pick on us more but thankfully there are intentional behaviors we can do to to reduce or end being picked on or treated badly or just getting used etc. Those folks rarely ever change (sadly), so fair or not, we have to take it upon ourselves to change the dynamics with them ourselves. Of course, sometimes that def means just removing them from our lives altogether if at all possible.

[@ma_niz]

I love the "bookends" idea!

[@TA-xr4cv]

Just wanted to say, since I haven't before, that your videos are sooo great at motivating and getting me to think diferently - and look to change behavior! Still working on myself at 63! Thank you for your insights.

[@allyjoyce]

There is nothing your mind cannot help you achieve🙏

[@terezahankusova8248]

About pomodoro I have the same results 🤣 I was overwhelmed and annoyed about 25 minutes of learning 😫 but when I did pomodoro suitable like 15 minutes on 15 break it was better !!

[@Khushi-cv1hd]
