Red Flags Don’t Turn Green – Karen Leslie

3/13/2024
Cultivating Kindness With Karen All relationships can be tricky; with yourself, another person and in business as well. You all know what red flags and green flags mean. You know the concept of red for stop or warning and green for go ahead safely. The difficulties start to show up when you begin to blur the lines or colours. Thinking thoughts like 'this is more of an orange flag, not really red'. Or, 'I know there is potential underneath this temporary red flag' can be inviting trouble. You invite in drama, and even traumas, when you try to mask a red flag. How many red flags do you allow? Are you a "three strikes and out" thinker? Join Karen Leslie, Educator and Life Transformation Guide, this week on Cultivating Kindness With Karen to hear why only one red flag is plenty and what it is about a red flag that does not let it turn green.

Sorry, I Am Human – Karen Leslie

3/6/2024
Cultivating Kindness With Karen Yes, you are human, and sometimes you humans can find it difficult to say "sorry". At other times you will attach an apology to the fact that you are human and say 'sorry, I am human'. This can drastically change the energy of an apology. What is it that changes immediately for the majority of you who use this phrase? Are you even aware of the shift? For some people, yes, many of you are very aware and the choice of these words is intentional. For others you are blindly repeating what you have heard from others. Does it even matter how you use this phrase? According to Karen Leslie, Educator and Life Transformation Guide, it really does. Join Karen Leslie this week on Cultivating Kindness With Karen to understand the differences so you can consciously decide if you even wish to use this phrase ever again.

Write Your Own Story – Karen Leslie

2/28/2024
Cultivating Kindness With Karen The story of who you are is often written by others. Each day is filled with so many habits and social masks that keep you from writing your own story.

Yet, when you do look past all of this the rewards can be truly amazing.

Whose Eyes Were You Looking Through In 2023? – Karen Leslie

12/27/2023
Cultivating Kindness With Karen You may be looking at everything around you using your physical eyes. However your "looking" is often coloured by the beliefs of others. They may be your eyes but your brain filters in other people's perceptions. How we see the world around us is greatly shaped by our family, friends, the media and so much more. The joy, or lack of joy, we experience is influenced by others. The hardships we encounter are also seen through the eyes of those who share their experiences with us. As 2023 comes to a close it is a great time to look back on different times during the year and honestly ask yourself whose eyes were you looking through and how might you wish to change this for the future. Join Energetic Transformational Healer Karen Leslie for great insights on how to connect back to your own eyes so you can accurately create the life that will bring you greater joy in 2024. ~ More About Cultivating Kindness With Karen ~ Karen Leslie is an Educator and an Expert Healer who has been facilitating energy with others for over 25 years.
