Finding Joy in the Hard
Finding Joy in the Hard is a testament to how incredibly powerful we are.
In this daily podcast, I offer two-ten minute episodes: words of inspiration, thought provoking questions to shift from rigid thought patterns and actionable healing tips.
Once or twice a month, I'll offer interviews with people who have found joy in the hard of life. Those who found their way to light, no matter their circumstances.
I'm your host, Suzanne Andora Barron. I've been teaching yoga, meditation, and mindfulness and mindset for fourteen years. As a Jin Shin Jyutsu practitioner, I teach students how to use the placement of their hands and breath to ease pain and discomfort in their body, support themselves emotionally and balance mind, body and spirit.
Welcome! I'm so excited you're here!
Finding Joy in the Hard
#116: Do you allow yourself to face your fears?
When our boys were little, they played a game with their cousin called Face Your Fears. One at a time, they would venture into the unfinished part of the basement without the lights on.
Can you just imagine their little excited bodies jumping up and down at the prospect of doing something a little risky?
When was the last time you intentionally faced a fear?
Usually we avoid things that scare us, sometimes avoiding things that can make our lives more special.
One thing that helps me is to intentionally do things that scare me. It might sound a little cooky, but it’s actually empowering because we get to see that the thing that seemed so scary is often only scary in our minds.
In this episode, I share how I confronted something I had been avoiding for years.
So what are you avoiding? What have you convinced yourself will be too hard or won't work out? Even if it doesn't work out you'll still likely feel better that you made the effort.
This week, do one thing that scares you – and if you’re willing message me at https://www.instagram.com/suzanneandorabarron/and tell me what you did. I’d love to hear.
