How To Teach People How To Treat Us

One of the hardest lessons I’ve learned is how to put myself first and why this is so important. I was a top-notch people-pleaser for most of my life including a large portion of my adult life. A lot of this came from just the average run-of-the-mill conditioning by society with the expectation of women to take care of everyone at their own expense, to always put everyone else first and don’t complain about it either because if you do you would be labeled selfish. I’m glad I see a bit of a shift in this conditioning. Women are waking up and realizing they have been getting shafted for quite a while. 

 

One of the most important things I’ve learned is that putting yourself first is not selfish. It serves us, our families, and our communities as a whole. You see when we put ourselves first and take care of ourselves at the highest levels. Rest when we are tired and sick, spend time doing things that bring us joy, and help us expand and grow. We then...

We Are All Connected, How Can We Be More Intentional About This?

This morning I was reading one of my favorite books about wildcrafting, Wild Remedies by Rosalee de la Foret. It's a great beginning book about herbalism and this is the third time I’m reading it. There was a part where she is talking about having a sitting spot to observe nature and I started to think about it, I’ve always had a sitting spot. When I was a kid it was at the shore of Long Island at the peer on Cedar Beach. When I lived near Syracuse NY it was at the shore of a lake in a town park. Now where I live also in upstate NY it’s right on my family's property. We have it all, fields, woods, ponds, creeks, and an abundance of wildlife. 

The Author goes on to talk about how to observe nature and watch how everything is connected and how they all serve each other, support one another, and live in this perfect dance called nature. 

I love sitting on this little bench we have next to the creek on our property and a beautiful garden where we sprinkled my...

8 Ways To Raise Your Vibe Daily

Every single thing in the world has a certain vibration and to put it super simple, some things are high vibe (more on the positive side) and some are low vibe (more on the negative side) and then there are a bunch of different vibrations in between.

 

So why should we want to vibrate at a high vibration? Because this is when we feel great, we are feeling love and joy and ease in our lives.

 

Now, I understand, we can’t be super positive all the time. We have ups and downs throughout our lives and when we feel something we need to feel it, experience it, and then process it. 

 

The key is not to stay there and keep repeating the negative thought or feelings in your head and body. 

 

If we experience something crappy we need to feel it, process it, and then maybe learn from it or adjust our path and then move forward. 

 

Just having the mindset that every experience is here to teach us or adjust our path brings you into a higher...

Be More Intentional With Your Time

When I was younger like most people I was not very intentional with my time.
 
I was very busy but I was just getting through the day.
I found myself just reacting to what I ran into and had to deal with.
I was a single mom with 3 kids and everything seemed impossible, unorganized, and half-assed.
 
I had absolutely no control and worse, I believed that having control of my own time was not possible.
 
Things have changed a lot.
I've set boundaries, lots.
I decluttered and simplified everything. I love simple.
I learned that being intentional about my time for me means I have big dreams, desires, and goals and make sure I spend most of my time moving toward those things.
 
I check in with myself every so often to make sure I’m on the right track. Daily now.
 
The first step to being intentional is knowing where you want to go?
 
What are your dreams and goals?
 
If you don’t have any that light your soul on fire 🔥 then...

5 things to leave behind Part 4&5

Today I'll be sharing parts 4 and 5 of the things I want to leave behind as we move into the new year.

Before I get started I wanted to share with you that I have probably 20 things I would like to leave behind and I will leave behind but I feel that would be too long and drawn out.

I encourage you to not have a new year resolution but to just reflect on the last year and have a plan to get closer to your goals and dreams. 

Plan is the keyword here because if you don't really know what you want and you don't have a vision or a plan to get what you want when you figure it out then you most likely won't get there.

So moving on.

The last two things I'm leaving behind are connected to each other. 

One is a hustle mentality, and the other is not making time, a lot of time for my self-care.

You see I figured out that when I take the time to treat myself well, take care of myself, I get things done quicker.

Not just quicker, but also better. I have better creativity and...

5 Things To Leave Behind Part 3

Hello Friends!

The third thing I want to leave behind as I move into the next year of my life is crappy food.

I kinda do this already, but now I'm going to take it to the next level.

I already eat a plant-based whole food diet most of the time but what I noticed is when I decide to eat something sweet or some kind of junk food it can be really crappy.

Like crappy chocolate, cookies, or chips. 

Instead, If I'm going to eat something like this I'll make sure it's the best.

The best dark chocolate, homemade cookies instead of store-bought, ect.

When you make things yourself, you know exactly what you're putting in your body.

The reason I'm doing this is I want to be in the best health, feel good, and always have my body in a place where it can heal if it needs to.

So I've decided that when I'm going to eat something, let it not just be fun and delicious, let it be a bit better, healthier, than some of the crap I put in my body.

You are either fueling your health or creating...

5 Things to leave behind as we move into a new year

Happy Monday!

For this next week, I'll be talking bout 5 things I plan on leaving behind so that I can have an epic year in 2022.

I'll be covering one thing each day I might at some point do a live about it on Instagram. As long as I get my somewhat normal voice back. 

I've had a bit of a cold and have trouble talking without coughing.

So make sure to follow me on Instagram > @tinastinsoncoach

I am on FB but kinda want to move off of this platform but you can check it out here>> TinaStinsonWellness

 So let's get started.

The first thing I plan on leaving behind as this year comes to an end is judgment. 

Judgment of myself and also, the judgment of other people.

Yes, even people I feel I can judge. Which is basically just my opinion.

You see the one thing I've noticed is that the people of this country and even the world are completely divided right now. 

The more I look at this situation the more silly it seems. 

I truly believe...

10 Soul Aligned Deep Self-Care Practices

Start living big, with passion, propose, and impact

 

A lot of times when we talk about self-care we think of getting a massage, a hot bath, and having a nice warm cup of herbal tea.

 

These are all great self-care things to add to your life but unless you’re doing them consistently, they will only be surface-level self-care.

 

There is nothing wrong with surface-level self-care. It will raise your vibe and mood which is always beneficial. 

 

However, we want to do things that will create lasting change in order to protect our energy and create the space for the things we love.

 

Let us go over 10 soul-aligned deep self-care practices that will help you create the space for a life full of passion, purpose, and impact.

Step 10 - Don't focus on perfection in your life, just progress

It is not healthy for us as humans to stand still and to be stagnant. Remember, movement is life. It's human nature to want to learn and grow throughout our entire life and this should never stop. It is your job to feed and nourish this desire and keep your mind and imagination alive. Right now, let's focus on reigniting our desire to learn new things and have fun doing them.

I once watched a Ted Talk where the guy talked about an experiment he did where he tried something new every 30 days.

I thought, that sounds like fun, I’m going to do that!

The first thing I did was start eating plant-based cold turkey! It was an amazing experience and something I had been thinking about for a while. By the way, I’m still plant-based today and it’s been around 12 years! I also coach other people who want to transition over so give me a shout-out if this is you.

Don't worry about being good at something or looking good. Right now, just focus on moving forward, learning...

Step 9 - Love yourself exactly as you are

Step 9 - Love yourself exactly as you are~

If you love yourself exactly the way you are, unapologetically, everyone else will follow suit. Going back to the first step, learning about the things we love definitely helps, you learn more about who you are. Here are a few more questions to ask yourself.

Questions:

  • Are you changing the way you act with certain people to avoid conflict or to make them happy? If so, why?
  • Do you find yourself trying to do things that you don't like to do to please others? Why?
  • Are you worried about sharing your beliefs and dreams with the people you love and spend time with because you're afraid of judgment? Why?
  • Are you judging the way you look by comparing yourself to other women or representations of women in the media you consume? 
  • Ask yourself if these are true representations of true women of today or are they unrealistic representations?

These can be signs that you're not in alignment with yourself and are questioning who you are.
