If our inner monologues were body builders, most of us would have a super buff heavyweight in the doubt- & fearmongering department — with glistening, throbbing muscles built over a lifetime. But which weight class would you find in your joy & simple contentment department, or your department of celebrating success & accomplishments? Most often, these are the muscles we need to grow to make life feel better. In today's episode we give some attention to these muscles, and to enhancing our response patterns to the ups and downs of life & love.
