Taming the Inner Critic to Bring Out More Joy



Today's blog is from our guest writer, Sheevaun Moran

Our world is filled with many words and many of those are actually critical. These critical thoughts and words are  brought down by our parents and their parents. These energies and thoughts live within us so much so that they manifest easily when someone is around us who is critical.

 For many years I’ve heard from my clients that they want peace and joy. I always say that unless you have a model, on a regular basis, for joy and peace that you won’t get there. You will only wish and long for something that sounds good – too good to be true.

 It is possible but you must fill your home, office, energy, life and all surroundings with things that bring you joy. You must be informed or inform yourself when you are out of alignment with the things that bring you joy.

 There is a quote in my book Shotgun Shopping-Materializing What You Want Without Ever Shopping that says “Never bring into your home anything that you don’t absolutely love. If you do your mind will start having little pangs of doubt. It will be just like a slow leak in a tire that eventually will burst and create chaos.”
 The same thing applies to having joy in your life. it is at your fingertips, if only you will allow it. Rather, it is on the tip of your tongue and all you need to do is allow it.

 I learned many years ago from a mentor of mine that there’s joy around me and ready to jump in and take place at my whim. The word that he used when sharing this concept is “ananda”.

 While this is not a common word today we are still affected by the energy of this word – ananda. Try it.

What’s Left On Your Bucket List?

Isn’t this a great question…What’s left on your bucket list?

Hollis Chapman asked me this question on a recent radio show interview when I was his guest. Here is what I listed for my five top bucket list items:


- Keep writing books

- Travel to England

- Speak on a cruise ship

- Inspire a Million acts of kindness around the world

- Live on a sailboat for a year

The movie The Bucket List was one that I really enjoyed, and it inspired me to keep my own bucket list.  Here's what the movie is about, in case you haven't seen it yet.  "Corporate billionaire Edward Cole and working class mechanic Carter Chambers have nothing in common except for their terminal illnesses. While sharing a hospital room together, they decide to leave it and do all the things they have ever wanted to do before they die according to their bucket list. In the process, both of them heal each other, become unlikely friends, and ultimately find joy in life."



The best part about the Bucket List is that we don't have to wait for a life changing situation to create a bucket list, you can create one now. 

What’s on your bucket list?  What do you want to try or do? 

A couple of tips in creating your bucket list....

1)  write it down
2) continually add to it
3) seek opportunities to do the activities recorded on your bucket list

To listen to Hollis and I talking about Bucket Lists on the radio show, you can listen to the recording here:
