                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#39;s time to dig deep to find that voice that so soothes our hearts because it draws us closer to our souls and all we have is our heart. What are we going to do with it? Will we choose to connect to it or silence it or will we let it speak? Eventually, we&amp;#39;re going to hear it roar. Whether that happens through pain or glory – is up to us.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ways to Support the Show:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Share the show&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Join my email &lt;a href=&#34;http://www.valeriezepeda.com&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;list&lt;/a&gt;: &lt;a href=&#34;http://www.valeriezepeda.com&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;www.valeriezepeda.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Subscribe to my YouTube &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.youtube.com/@spiritualcardio2706/featured&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;channel&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Follow &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.instagram.com/spiritualcardio/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;@Spiritualcardio&lt;/a&gt; on social&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;http://www.valeriezepeda.com/donate&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Donate&lt;/a&gt; to the show: &lt;a href=&#34;http://www.valeriezepeda.com/donate&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;www.valeriezepeda.com/donate&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content:encoded>

                <itunes:summary>Affirmations can help us re-program our mindset and they are a good way of promoting a healthier perspective on life.

Some of us have a broken record in our mind that keeps us stuck in hopelessness but that can be changed. We can put the needle on a whole new record but it takes repetition and it takes work. It takes commitment to ourselves. Affirmations can help us change our outlook on life and that negative narrative that holds us back. But we also need to build trust and confidence in ourselves by doing something outside of our comfort zone. We have to take ownership of our disempowering beliefs to transcend them. 

Whether we choose to stay stagnant or we choose to cultivate the best version of ourselves, we have the power to choose every day.

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Affirmations can help us re-program our mindset and they are a good way of promoting a healthier perspective on life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some of us have a broken record in our mind that keeps us stuck in hopelessness but that can be changed. We can put the needle on a whole new record but it takes repetition and it takes work. It takes commitment to ourselves. Affirmations can help us change our outlook on life and that negative narrative that holds us back. But we also need to build trust and confidence in ourselves by doing something outside of our comfort zone. We have to take ownership of our disempowering beliefs to transcend them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Whether we choose to stay stagnant or we choose to cultivate the best version of ourselves, we have the &lt;strong&gt;power to choose every day&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ways to support the show:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Share this episode with someone you love&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Follow the Spiritual Cardio YouTube &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVgworjXrYM9VmriQGZwHAQ/videos&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Channel&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Follow @SpiritualCardio on &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.instagram.com/spiritualcardio/?__coig_restricted=1&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;social media&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.valeriezepeda.com/donate/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Donate&lt;/a&gt; to the show&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

                <itunes:summary>I was terrified of breaking up with alcohol. I thought if I stopped drinking my life was over. But little did I know it was just starting because it was the birth of my transformation and the start of a new life.

Sobriety isn&#39;t easy and getting sober is only half the battle because inner work is crucial in reaching for self-actualization. Our inner truth can be a beautiful love story if we’re willing to do the work to make peace with it.

Our inner demons lose power over us once we start running toward them. If we keep distracting and numbing ourselves, they hold all the power. But in running towards them, we befriend them. And in befriending them, we can make peace with them because in getting to know them, we can heal what conceived them.

                <itunes:summary>Meditation isn’t about control. It&#39;s about releasing control. You allow your thoughts to flow and pass through. It’s not about stopping them, judging, or containing them. You simply let them be and they pass. And in letting them pass your mind will slow down.

Meditation is about choosing to let go. It’s not hard, that’s what people like to tell themselves. But it is a practice. Just as we condition the body for fitness by going to the gym, we must condition and nourish the spirit.

When you choose to let go, you get closer to your peace. It’s in you and it’s yours. Just as we choose chaos, we can choose peace. We just have to change what we tell ourselves about meditation. 

Meditation is practicing patience within and for your mind. The thing is, you have to choose it. And in doing so, you inch toward your higher self. 

You tap into God&#39;s truth of you. Through this work the essence of your heart is set free, to help you navigate life and become the best version of yourself. The more and the longer you do this work the better your life gets. There’s a beautiful world inside of us all. We just have to practice mercy for our mind and body to connect to it all.

By tapping in, our life must change when we allow God to appear through that eternal loving energy.

Spirituality is a journey into your rebirth.

                <itunes:summary>Forgiveness is an act of self-love. It’s a hard practice to initiate because strong emotions are tied to the memories that haunt us.

But forgiveness will help us dissolve the fog that those emotions create. It’s a fog that blocks our connection to the joy that we all have available to us. Forgiveness is going to help silence the noise in our hearts so that we can direct attention to what truly matters most to us. 

It helps us open up a portal into the unknown. And in the unknown is where the ultimate beauty of life happens. It&#39;s where we meet the value of healing and the vitality of humility opens up our hearts for the first time. It’s messy and magical to just let it all go. 

This is such an important part of our growth because, without forgiveness, we’re stagnant emotionally and spiritually. We carry bitterness in our hearts and broadcast it energetically, which is a disservice to us and the world around us.

The mind and spirituality inspire miracles if we open ourselves up to the magic of our imagination and the power of words spoken.

                <itunes:summary>Living in resistance keeps us stuck. Whatever you’re resisting, you’re at war with. Acceptance gives you permission to heal. It doesn’t mean what happened was okay. But it gives you the opportunity to validate your feelings about the memory with the intention to heal - not to remain stuck in victimhood. 

Victimhood holds us in the dark and nothing gets accomplished there – unless we’re choosing to move toward the light. Acceptance helps us turn that light on. And slowly, we can start moving towards it through inner work.

                <itunes:summary>One of the most important parts of inner work is self-inquiry. Are you living a life that reflects self-love? Do you fear going inward? Self-inquiry is the start of a journey back into the core of your heart – beyond the painful memories we’ve been suppressing. It’s finally listening to your inner voice. It’s accepting that beneath everything you’ve been doing to cope – there is an inner child that’s been silenced and forgotten. Your greatness awakens when you begin making peace with your inner child. And when you start reflecting – you realize she’s got so much to say. Drowning her will never make her go away.
