We all know that our environment has a profound effect upon our beings. But we're not often intentional about shaping our environments, or not aware of how we are an integral part of other people's environments. Join us as we discuss how we can be more conscious about the people, colors, sounds, and other experiences that make up each day.
Here are this episodes’ Action Points:
Notice Your Physical Responses– When you next are experiencing a soothing or stressful situation, tune in to how your body feels. A tense throat? Long, soft breaths? Clenched jaw? As we learn to notice what our body is doing, we gain insight into our emotional state.
Change a Situation With Your Tone of Voice– Next time someone is angry, fearful, stressed, or anxious around you, see if you can shift their state of being simply by speaking in a relaxed way.
Try an “Intentional Environment” Day– Take one day and see if you can be as conscious as possible about all of your sensory input.
Extra Credit: Transform Your Perspective– Sometimes we can shift our environments, but sometimes we can’t. Instead, we can shift our perspective. Next time you’re dealing with something you can’t change, see if you can reframe it and look at it through a different lens.
