Holland Haiis believes we are living on a diet of disconnect and the time to reconnect is NOW. By finding the thread of your power she believes life becomes simplified and energized. Once you begin Consciously Connecting you'll never look back!
I truly enjoyed this show with Holland. We had a wonderful conversation. The second half of the show is all about the chapter in Holland's book that refers to Positive Words. This is 100% what our network is about and what a great testimony for the world to hear.
Listen to the full interview here:
There is a shift happening especially women. We find
ourselves in conversations that have been laced with a tone of criticism. You
can be walking down the street or standing in line somewhere to get coffee and
people may be discussing someone’s weight or what they are wearing. It makes
you stop and think about how you are spending your time and energy. Choosing words
that throw arrows at someone whether they hear you or not. The same thing goes
for shaming ourselves, using words like “Oh I’m so stupid, or what an idiot, oh
I can’t believe I did that”. We want to become more conscious of these thoughts
and words that come out. Continually thinking and talking this way will begin
to hook and imprint and affect the way we view the world in a negative way.
Sometimes our first instinct isn’t the best one when it
comes to our thoughts and our words.
Words
are powerful tools! The way we speak to ourselves changes the way we think
about ourselves; which then allows us to really sit in that place of power and
knowingness. When we come from a place of being connected to knowingness, to
trusting ourselves to really knowing that when that little tingle in the
stomach or that little tap on the shoulder that so often we walk away from we
say “oh no, no, no” when we get to a point of really getting started by
connecting from our words and more change in our thoughts and change in our
actions which is bigger, because then we become a bigger force in the world for
good. We become a person who is of service instead of expecting to be served
and we are all here in order to find that connection. And however the journey
is and we’ve all had our bumps and our pit-falls and we’ve all fallen down - it’s
about getting up.
And I talk about understanding that kindness and you are
connecting to your words, how you speak to yourself and how you speak to others
- that is your truth because no one arrives on the planet negative, critical we
arrive when we think of little babies and look at little babies, we arrive wide
eyed and innocent and we are full of wonder and we are open and ready for
adventure and wonder, it’s a magical journey. But some of us unfortunately,
have been taught through parents who didn’t know any better to surrender from
the true language of joy and being inquisitive and we end up entering into an
arena of self-doubt and criticism. And what I ask is that this be your moment
to become aware and be conscious of that and to walk away; to exit that arena
today - it is a choice it is a decision and, you start today - you will no longer belittle or shame
yourself, and you don’t belittle and shame others.
