Mindful Elevation

In celebration of Women's History Month, Rachael shares another chapter from Sue Patton Thoele's "Women's Book of Courage." This chapter explores the power of visualization and imagination on our confidence, self-esteem, and self-image. Whether you're facing challenges in your personal or professional life, seeking to overcome obstacles, or simply striving to tap into your fullest potential, you are able to visualize yourself as the powerful, capable individual you truly are.

In honor of Women's History Month, this episode explores the powerful theme of women reclaiming their narratives by reframing the traditional roles of rescuer and savior. We celebrate the strength and resilience of women who are courageously stepping back from the role of constant rescuer and instead focusing on self-care, empowerment, and personal growth. In today's Energy Elevator, Rachael shares a passage from Sue Patton Thoele's "The Woman's Book of Courage: Meditations for Empowerment & Peace of Mind," describing how to let go of our Woman-As-Rescuer role, and instead let others live their lives.

Today's episode covers Chapter 6 of Deepak Chopra's "The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success." The Law of Detachment explains that we must not attach ourselves to an outcome, and instead let pure potentiality provide us with new opportunities and possibilities that we may not have known were available. By staying true to our True Self and practicing mindfulness, we can learn to enjoy the journey rather than getting caught up with the destination.

Today's Elevator continues Deepak Chopra's The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, the Law of Least Effort. You might be asking yourself, "I'm sorry, did I just read *least* effort?" And to that, we say YES! What you do naturally out of love, compassion, and joy brings you closer to your dreams. Hate, judgment, and manipulation do not come intrinsically to our true Self, which ultimately makes us use more effort in our behaviors. When we act in alignment with our true Self, it takes minimal effort, which allows us to live in peace and love.

The origin of Black History Month begins in 1926, when Carter G. Woodson created Negro History Week to celebrate the education of Black history in public schools. By the 1960's, the one-week celebration evolved into a one-month historical observance. Today, Rachael shares the poem "BLK History Month" by Nikki Giovanni.
