  • Book Summary: The Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod
    Feb 26 2024

    Today Wende summarizes another personal development book that has impacted her life: The Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod. Wende read this at the recommendation of someone in her Personal Retreat Day community and has been implementing the practice for about 6 weeks, with great success!

    Hal's "SAVERS" formula for creating a winning morning:

    S - Silence (prayer, meditation)
    A - Affirmations (but not the cheesy kind)
    V - Visualization (seeing your success in advance)
    E - Exercise (get the blood flowing to your brain)
    R - Reading (something inspirational to set you on the right track)
    S - Scribing (a fancy word for journaling that makes the acronym work!)

    Don't forget about Dr. Walker's inspirational resources too! Find them HERE.

    Enjoying the podcast? Tell a friend what you learned today and invite them to join the Leverage Your Time, Balance Your Life community! We'd appreciate it if you would publish a review of our podcast on your favorite platform, and don't forget to subscribe!

    Feb 19 2024

    This week we go WAY back in time to examine Ben Franklin's list of 13 Virtues which he aimed to master every day. The virtues are:

    1. Temperance
    2. Silence
    3. Order
    4. Resolution
    5. Frugality
    6. Industry
    7. Sincerity
    8. Justice
    9. Moderation
    10. Cleanliness
    11. Tranquility
    12. Chastity
    13. and of course, Humility!

    Dr. Walker & Wende ponder whether one can ever truly achieve humility. (i.e. of all my fantastic virtues, humility is my greatest!) They also explore Franklin's other achievements of which there are many.

    Also mentioned in this podcast is Wende's guided monthly journal, Your Rythm of Rest and Reflection, which can be purchased HERE.
