Self-Awareness for Everyone
Applied Guidance for Mindfulness
Meet Your Host
I am MJ Blehart - a dreamer, philosopher, geek, writer, editor, amateur photographer, and medieval fencer/herald/
re-enactor. I’ve been writing fiction since I was 9 and have been blogging regularly for more than 10 years.
I believe that Consciousness Creates Reality. Thus, I’m certain that we have the power to make our lives into whatever we believe we can. And that begins with self-awareness.
I have the pleasure of serving as your guide through easy-to-use mindfulness tools, conscious reality creation, and other devices for unselfish self-awareness.
Currently, I live in New Jersey (near Philadelphia) with my wife and two feline overlords (cats).
S4 Ep8: Let’s Talk About The Meaning of Life, Shall We?
What if it’s staring us all right in the face?
The quest to find the meaning of life has occupied the human mind for most of recorded history.
It’s easy to argue that philosophy, religion, and science are all on the exact same quest – to discover the meaning of life. Each has their own approach to the question.
I believe that the answer to the meaning of life is quite possibly the simplest thing ever. Without further ado – what if the answer to the meaning of life is this: TO LIVE.
S4 Ep7: Who – Besides You – Can Care for Yourself?
You are the only you there is.
Do you like yourself? Be honest.
Let’s take this a step further. Do you love yourself? This might bring up questions of conceit, arrogance, narcissism, and so on. But self-love is not any of these things. It’s about treating yourself how you would prefer that others treat you.
Many of us put ourselves last. But who do you have - other than you - to care for yourself?
S4 Ep6: How Difficult is it To Change Your Life?
Changing your life is only as difficult as you make it.
That’s because change is constant. The only constant in the Universe. Change can, will, and does occur all the time. And most of it is not yours to control.
But there is change you can control – that’s your approach to life, the universe, and everything. Your life, your reality, can be altered by choice by you. And that’s through conscious awareness. In other words, mindfulness.
Mindfulness is the key.
S4 Ep5: Be Yourself – Because You Can’t Be Anyone Else
Who are you?
Who you are can vary depending on the time of day, the company you’re keeping, your mood, and numerous other factors.
The short answer is that you are you. No matter what happens, the only one in your head, heart, and soul is you.
Being yourself means being true to yourself. Being yourself is not a license to be a dick. Practice kindness, compassion, and empathy.
S4 Ep4: Spoiler Alert – You’re Not the Only One Feeling Uncertain
Do You Think You’re the Only One Feeling Uncertain?
For every good thing learned in the pandemic, a bad thing was learned, too.
Rather than address these things and use this as a growth opportunity, frequently attempts are made to go back to how it was before. That has caused a largely ignored and unaddressed mental health crisis for nearly everyone.
That’s why – more likely than not – you’re feeling uncertain.
