Where Minds Connect

In this week's episode of Where Minds Connect, co-hosts Dania Niles and Nik-Keshia Moodie discuss self-compassion and self-forgiveness. Jay Shetty shares that choosing this approach rather than dwelling on negative actions can have a significant impact on your life. Instead of beating yourself up about your mistakes, you should be trying to build the muscles to help you be resilient. If you feed your resilience effectively, then you will be happy irrespective of what life brings you (Story Shots, 2021).

This month’s book of discussion is Think Like A Monk by Jay Shetty. Think Like A Monk teaches us how to create peace and everyday purpose by learning to let go of the things that no longer serve us, growing in areas of our lives that demand an upgrade and giving back to the universe and those who require our light to help them transform and lead lives they desire.

In this week's episode of Where Minds Connect, co-hosts Dania Niles and Nik-Keshia Moodie discuss their higher values, including gratitude, service, truthfulness, and compassion. Shetty shares that these higher values are what will give us happiness, fulfillment, and meaning. In comparison, Jay Shetty suggests readers avoid lower values. Examples of common lower values include greed, lust, anger, and envy. The outcome of these lower values is a combination of anxiety, depression, and suffering (Story Shots, 2021).

In this episode of Where Minds Connect, we discuss chapters 1 & 2 - Identity and Negativity respectively. In chapter 1 we engage in self- reflection by pondering on the following quote; “I am not what I think I am, and I am not what you think I am. I am what I think you think I am.’ by Charles Horton Cooley. Understanding that we arrive at our identity based on our assumption of how others perceive us. Chapter two lets us know that negativity is inevitable, but with this truth, comes accountability and steps you can take to reverse both external and internal negativity.
