Value Quotes

“A path and a journey began about really wanting to explore my own negativity, my own levels of stress that I was experiencing and how my life outside of me was being reflected outward from within me”

“What I would have done differently is not ignored the messages that have come through my negativity and the messages through stress that came up through my life”

“We experience negativity for a reason and that spiritually negativity is there to serve and help us”

“Positive thinking doesn’t work it just heightens the level of stress we have. So even though we know better why don’t we do better?”

“I’ve learned to work with my body. I’ve learned to work with my environment and I’ve learned to observe what’s going on within me and around me because we’re getting feedback all the time”

“The challenge in the modern world is that we become so consumed in doing that we take our focus off of who we are”

“When we experience negativity of any kind we are being triggered back to the past and we are actually reliving the past in the here and now”

“Go and sit with yourself in your common-sense corner”

“As you change your behaviours you start to change the neurology in the body”

“No matter where we are in our life whether we’re experiencing extreme challenges or extreme joy there will always be things in your life that fulfil you and make you happy”

We’re in this diet mindset that keeps us stuck in the vicious circle instead of living more from a place of what is nourishing, what’s going to fuel me, what feels good for me
— Melissa Costello -

Inspire yourself with these essential insights from Melissa Costello

We spoke about 

  • A difficult body image journey

  • The rise of chronic illness

Value Quotes 

“When I started to transform my diet, all my childhood illnesses went away”

“I thought that the healthier I ate and the more that I controlled my food, that would bring my body to a place that I felt good about”

“I basically healed my relationship to food and my body because I really saw the connection of how my eating was linked to my body image”

“As much as eating healthy and eating clean is important a lot of people struggle with the consistency”

“We’re overwhelmed, overloaded, people are not getting enough sleep”

“We are constantly being bogged down by electronics, phones and all these distractions and people aren’t getting the quality of time alone or the quality of sleep that they need”

“It’s become a world of convenience and what is convenient is not always healthy”

“I’ve finally felt that sense of freedom where I can really enjoy my body and feel good”

“Clean eating is not eating from a bag, box or a can but eating food as close to nature as you can”

“We’re in this diet mindset that keeps us stuck in the vicious circle instead of living more from a place of what is nourishing, what’s going to fuel me, what feels good for me”

“What I found for myself in my journey is that the healthier I ate, the better I felt and the more I wanted to do it”

“Each choice we make is either going to compound the problem or create solutions for us”

052 3 tips that will make your nightmares become sweet dreams | Bev Roberts

The fears and worries we don’t acknowledge in our waking life come out to play in the middle of the night
— Bev Roberts -

We are midway through Sleeptember®, a month of events focused on supporting you to get better quality sleep so I decided to share 3 tips that I have found particularly helpful to deal with a busy mind and stress. You may find that you fall asleep from exhaustion yet wake up in the early hours of the morning with monkey mind. Use these tips daily to train your mind to put stress to bed!

Inspire yourself with these essential insights from your host Bev Roberts

I spoke about

  • How sleep can become like a nasty playground

  • 3 reasons why your mind makes a poor master

  • 3 practical tips to ditch stress that keeps you awake

Value Quotes

“The fears and worries we don’t acknowledge in our waking life come out to play in the middle of the night"  

"Our mind gets stuck on auto-repeat and like clockwork it’s 2 or 3am, we’re wide awake and the merry-go-round of thoughts swirl in our heads relentlessly"  

"It is completely possible to fall asleep and stay asleep when we understand that the mind makes a good slave but a poor master"  

"Amplifying our perception of the situation is what can create unnecessary worry or fear and yet it may be a blinkered version of the story"  

"Place a priority on letting go of those fears before you head to bed so you can have restorative sleep that brings equilibrium easily"
