How to Stop Yesterday’s Worries Stealing Today’s Joys


peace and Finnick waters diving deep
once again got the wind blowing back and
forth just breathing in that good ass
prana baby well here how to stop
yesterday’s worries stealing today’s joy
did you screw up yesterday put your hand
up if you did
hands are slowly going up what happened
yesterday
nobody knows that’s between you and
whatever happened
loads of people wrote in saying they
love the video 10 things to remind
yourself today and a woman wrote in this
that the last point I made about how to
not let whatever you did yesterday get
you down today said how do we go about
doing them I mean even had breakfast yet
can I get a Hello you got a question
Ralph smart calm Instagram us at
infinite waters now let me share with
you what’s helped me along my journey as
a psychologist as a counselor and as
someone who loves the cat down the road
it hasn’t always been smooth sailing for
me and sometimes I also overthink a lot
like a lot sometimes I’m thinking about
maybe I shouldn’t have said that
wait a minute when did I say that wait a
minute that was like 12 months ago dun
dun dun why am I still thinking about it
it’s annoying please stop right now I am
trying to enjoy this beautiful day in
California today I don’t want to think
about what I did twelve months ago but I
can’t stop thinking about it
why on infinite waters we had the great
biologist dr. Bruce Lipton do you
remember that I was
oh my gosh thanks Bruce and he has
amazing work he’s actually got a book
called the biology of belief but he
talks a lot about epigenetics what are
we talking about epigenetics this is how
your perception how you see the world
and circumstances and people and
situations but more so yourself your
perception of yourself changes your DNA
and that’s why positive emotions affect
the body in a positive way and negative
emotions affect the body in a negative
way but also influence our DNA now he
talked a lot about the honeymoon effect
where okay you just got married two
weeks you go away to the Bahamas it’s
beautiful
for those two weeks you’re not throwing
pots and pans at each other you actually
really come around each other and you
feel so beautiful around each other it’s
the honeymoon of course you’ve got to do
that and then after the honeymoon it’s
back to normal and then you start
throwing pots and pans at each other why
nobody knows now I have what I call the
carnival effect I’ve been to carnivals
in Brazil in the UK in all over the
world and have you ever gone to a
carnival and seen somebody dancing out
of their mind like and you’re like whoa
did you just win the lottery
but you know that actually they didn’t
but why they so happy
they almost dancing like they haven’t
got a worry in the world but you know
they do and they know they do where
they’re dancing like and you’re like
whoa shake what your mama gave your baby
or shake what’s your dad again
now I see that a lot sometimes people
are dancing and sometimes that’s a great
way off to stop
yesterday’s worries stealing today’s joy
you’ve got to dance it off because
what does dancing do dancing brings you
back it pulls you into the present
moment right all your thinking all
you’re thinking about is just moving and
shaking and you’re so in tune with that
music that’s playing right now okay
because a lot of us we can’t get over
what happened yesterday because we’re we
got these scenarios playing what if I
did this it shouldn’t have gone like
this coulda woulda shoulda didn’t happen
so who cares right deal with it that’s
what I told myself along my early
journey and it was a hard pill to
swallow
now in becoming your greatest version I
always say no amount of crying is gonna
clear up the almond milk from the table
if you’ve spilt it deal with it get a
cloth and wipe it off I know why did you
just like tip it over nobody knows but
it happens this is life they say in the
Disney a Disney film not not today so I
say it’s okay
it’s okay to worry even about yesterday
but you’ve got to realize that if you
are worrying and now you’re not feeling
good about it is it serving you
changing rewriting the story we tell
ourselves so many things about the past
about yesterday I’m not good enough I
should have done this I should have done
that
why did I do this nobody knows don’t
worry about it but the power of
rewriting your story is to realize that
everything you’ve told yourself about
yesterday is just a story it probably
isn’t the truth because with all stories
we put a bit of spice in there right we
either paint ourselves to be better than
we actually are which is fantastic or we
paint ourselves to be worse than we
actually are
which really happens a lot of the times
when we are overthinking I said a long
time ago
the secret to stop overthinking is to
let go of who you think you are slow
motion with the birds up let me repeat
that
the secret to stop overthinking is to
let go of who you think you are so I go
to a restaurant and I meet a Tibetan
Master Zen master and I asked him what
happens if you can’t forgive yourself
about something you’ve done in the past
and he said he loved her forget about it
and I said oh my goodness thank you
master
right by the way you’re a master as well
we’re all masters forget about it
forgetting about it doesn’t mean running
away from it because you see a lot of us
we can’t get over what happened
yesterday because we are we’re
distracting ourselves like that now I
just have to cuff
we’re distracting ourselves right some
people take drugs they drink themselves
silly thinking that their thoughts are
gonna go away their worries from
yesterday gonna disappear and then they
wake up with a whole load of clothes on
their face saying get out of the house
they’re like what did I do
well forget about it when he told me
that I was like goodness gracious how do
I forget about it that’s so profound
and then it occurred to me that I gotta
take a POA POA is plan of action
yesterday’s worries are only troubling
because of a perception you have about
that circumstance that event that’s
happened so you got to start changing
how you see whatever took place but also
realizing that that was then and this is
now what is the plan of action right now
which is gonna serve me the most if I’m
just over thinking about what I
shouldn’t have done it’s really not
gonna make me feel any better is it it’s
only gonna make me feel more incompetent
more useless and more silly that I said
that I can’t believe I can’t believe I
said that I can’t believe I did that
well you did deal with it and be proud
of it and realize that it’s a learning
process everything you do is about
growth what’s actually helped me along
my journey is realizing this secret if
I’m not worried it means I’m not alive
so worries are so natural embrace your
worries but realize you want your
worries and your worries don’t define
you take a seed and go to fertile soil
and plant that seed and it’s gonna grow
into a beautiful avocado tree just in
time for the seven day vegan challenge
how convenient
now a lot of us don’t realize that our
thoughts are seats
and your mind is a garden you can grow
flowers or you can grow weeds so what
helped me along my journey was saying
okay what thought am I gonna plant today
that’s gonna grow I got a chance the
universe always gives you a
can chance but not a third psych
of course it gives you another chance
and another chance and another chance
it’s us we don’t give ourselves a chance
when we say I’m never gonna get over
yesterday I’ve seen people come back
from all kinds of things they’ve been
knocked down kick kick tap punch debt
they’ve dodged all kinds of potatoes and
banana peels thrown at them and they’ve
come back smiling like hey I made it how
did they do that because they knew this
that they got another chance it’s never
over until you say it is so once again
to stop
yesterday’s worry stealing today’s joy
realize you can rewrite the story at any
time and whatever you think happened
yesterday is part of a story you are
telling yourself which you can change at
any time by realizing you can shape
today why because we ain’t even had
breakfast yeah what are we gonna have
for breakfast actually what should we
have

beautiful day breathing in that good oz
