So much more difficult to do than to say… lest anyone think this is easy!!! Thanks for today’s reminder that we all struggle with this, Todd! The good news is that once you realize mindfulness is the way, there’s really no going back, no matter how much our fear-driven mind tries to take us there. 🙏🏾
Wow...where have you been all my life? Better late than never. Your words are shifting my outlook on my situation and I thank you. When I can pay it back I will. I took me 50 years to get to this excruciatingly painful life I am currently living. How long it will take me to undo all of the pain and suffering I have caused to others and myself I do not know. Today I begin. Namaste.
Thank you 🙏, thank you 🙏, thank you 🙏 Todd. I really needed to hear this today. Yesterday I had a very stressful work day and I was out of my head and not present! I am grateful for everything I have . Plus every morning I pray & I do my gratitude list before i get out of bed, and if I have enough time , I also meditate. Metta 🙏
When your negative story about your life is that you don't have roots and a safe place to put your bed and belongings, dealing with a tyrant of a landlord who never repairs anything and you never know when you will be evicted, that does not disappear effortlessly. When the world has gotten so there isn't any way to change that no matter how much you work, no amount of presence will correct that. Not having a home, roots makes everything else in life that much more difficult. At least for me.
debbietodd8547 🙏🌺 i don't know where you live ...there is a youtube channel "a gal with no plan" where an homeless girl in USA tells her story from sleeping in a homeless shelter to getting rid of her addiction, getting a job and a room in a low income apartment building ...(i remember her joy when she felt protected in her own room) ...and her life went on improving ... in USA there are many Centres of the Mata Amritanandamayi (Amma) charitable organization "embracing the world" where, perhaps, they could offer some help ... life is a very difficult journey and Faith in a Higher Power is a great help ...🙏🌺
I too , am very unhappy with life and what's happening to me. There is no change for better with me. I'm suffering 24/7. And even without hope,... and no desires. I do have hope for you though 🙏 that your situation changes for your better.
@@loristrachan8633 my thoughts aren't very good right now... My mistake cost me my career job, it was my family, after my Mom, Gma, uncle, and best friend passed. I'm alone now.... stressed, with anxiety. Insomnia,... and depression. Im not doing so well. I like these videos, I wish I could experience the peace he lives with.
Beautiful message again Todd. Your words and images complement each other perfectly. Let purposeful presence be our guide at all times in our life. Blessings from Wales.❤🏴
I also viewed your video on the importance of teaching children about life from very young age. Your knowledge and experience will be so much appreciated if you lecture on schools on this subject and train some teachers to carry on the teachings. Probably you are already doing this.
Dear Todd. No coincidence l came upon your video and now l watch something different every day. I don't have to remind you how many thousands of people are being healed and helped through your wisdom and knowledge. At the moment l am supporting a 40 year old man going through chronic depression and learning from you is inabling me to give him some new directions in his life. Thank you so much as words are not enough to convey my total Gratitude.
“Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love, Where there is injury, pardon; Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, light; And where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console, to be understood as to understand, to be loved, as to love. For it is in giving that we receive, It is in pardoning that we are pardoned, for it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.” -St. Francis of Assisi
Your words of hope and wisdom are truly inspiring me to make changes to my outlook on life at the age of 57. Thankyou, listening to you has come at a time that Id lost hope that I could feel fulfilled ❤
I grew up in a household where both of my parents were oblivious narcissists who led me develop Complex PTSD and I only found out after 46-47 years on this crust. I'm sitting here alone struggling under the mental stresses of the Cost of Living crisis. Lately, EVERYTHING has been up and in my face and I'm at a crossroads in life, wondering what to do. I've been drinking for the last two years as I caught COVID and then it turned into long COVID and as a means to escape the mind fog and confusion, I started drinking just to feel some numbness. I can't carry on drinking but there only a few people I can call on to speak to and I dread getting up in the morning and sleep is what I live for as I don't have to engage with anything other than my troubling dreams. I'm lost and every tick of my clock is a tick closer to my death. Has anyone felt like this?
I feel your pain.... I also had the narsistic parants and was the escape goat. You are not alone. I use to escape as well, and am not finding ANY peace in that anymore. Reach out to someone and there is someone out there that will hear you. There is free counsoling and I wish you well my friend. Don't give up!
You can't let someone else's failures translate to excuses for your own. Everyone is suffering from inflation. Nobody had perfect parents. I'm terribly sorry yours failed you in such a crippling way but it's not a fair excuse to let alcoholism take over your reality.
Todd my son is doing his final exams in secondary school he is 18 very bright but refuses to study no matter how we try to encourage him and not much time left exams in june He is a good kind person so we can't understand why he is not at least trying for himself. Would appreciate any guidance 😊

Every thought we think is creating our future. (Law of attraction)!

Terrific video

Has anyone felt like this?
I’m sorry, hang in there and talk to God. I hope things get better for you.
I feel your pain.... I also had the narsistic parants and was the escape goat. You are not alone. I use to escape as well, and am not finding ANY peace in that anymore. Reach out to someone and there is someone out there that will hear you. There is free counsoling and I wish you well my friend. Don't give up!
You have to focus on working on yourself. Treat yourself as if you were a dear loved one who needs your help.
I struggle with my thinking. Much of the time I feel suicidal. I've had a lot of treatment. It has helped. Todd included. I hope you can find help.
You can't let someone else's failures translate to excuses for your own. Everyone is suffering from inflation. Nobody had perfect parents. I'm terribly sorry yours failed you in such a crippling way but it's not a fair excuse to let alcoholism take over your reality.
Todd my son is doing his final exams in secondary school he is 18 very bright but refuses to study no matter how we try to encourage him and not much time left exams in june
He is a good kind person so we can't understand why he is not at least trying for himself. Would appreciate any guidance 😊
Maybe he just doesn't want to be who you want him to be. Nothing wrong with that. Greetings from Brazil!🇧🇷
Beautiful🫠 thank you 😘
Much love 🙏
Timely! As always.
Will be off the net for 6-9 months will sure miss your videos, insights and inspirations. Gracias….
I'll miss you 😊
Me too, you are a blessing but, I have saved many of your videos, for timely comfort! Blessings!
