Laughter Homework

Joffre McClung laugh, Self-love 0 0

My High Self knew I needed laughter. When I was going through my period of loss – laughter saved my ass. I was grieving my mother’s passing and dreading the death of my best friend, Robbyn. There was no laughter in the house at that time. At one point, I got so scared that I would never be happy again that my Higher Self told me I needed to find things that made me smile and laugh. I needed laughter…..

Humor Can Teach Us

Joffre McClung Humor, Self-love 0 0

Humor can remind us. Humor makes us smile, giggle, or laugh out loud. It is used to satirize situations that must be dealt with or handled. It can be used to tenderly remind us that we have so much more to learn. Great humorists from the past like Mark Twain, Oscar Wilde, and Will Rodgers to the present-day, from George Carlin (who died too young), Jerry Seinfeld to Jon Stewart have been part of our lives. They make us laugh…..

Know What You Want!

Joffre McClung Know What You Want, Self-love 0 0

This week’s spiritual homework is to connect to what you want – to what you really want – not what you do not want! I have a friend who appears to be constantly in worry about receiving what he does not want. He can spend two to three days in this energy of worry and concern. I know his past, and he may be a bit addicted to the worry energy. It was how he was raised – seeing his…..

Resilience Homework

Joffre McClung Resilience, Self-love 0 0

Resilience was needed. I will share the technique I did intrinsically to keep my faith that I would find my way out of the tough times. I was in a dark place where I feared I would never move forward again. So, I began to add to my meditations this technique – that I have been in dark times before – and got out of it. So, I began to look back to times in my life when I felt…..

Why Resilience Inspires

Joffre McClung Resilience, Self-love 0 0

What is resilience, and why do we need it? Resilience is the ability to “Bounce Back” from difficult experiences. Resilience is a necessary trait in a well-rounded human being, and it is vital to grow and evolve. I have never met anyone who has not faced challenges or obstacles that must be overcome. We yell, shout, or cry when we first see the challenge or obstacle, but eventually, we roll up our sleeves and begin to work on removing the challenge……

Become Affectionate With Yourself

Joffre McClung Affectionate, Self-love 0 0

This week’s spiritual homework is being affectionate with yourself You can change how you feel Some people have spent so many years degrading themselves that to suddenly be affectionate will feel strange or downright wrong. Some may even say I cannot change how I feel about myself. Well, I can say they are wrong. You can change whatever you want to change. I changed myself and how I felt about myself, the world, and the universe. I did the homework……

Love is Contagious

Joffre McClung Love, Self-love 0 0

Three people who lacked self-love. They forgot that love is contagious. In the last few years, I have had the privilege of being with three loved ones as they faced the end of their lives. Two died in their senior years, and one, decades too soon. As each one reflected on their lives, such as the mistakes they thought they had made, the things they wish they had done and didn’t, as well as things they wish they hadn’t done…..

It Is All About Love

Joffre McClung Love, Self-love 0 0

How is love described? Love is described in the dictionary as an intense feeling of deep affection. Now how is friendship described? Friendship is described as a state of enduring affection, esteem, intimacy, and trust between two people. Affection, esteem, intimacy, and trust. I think those words defiantly describe how I see love – at least for now. We look for others to show us affection, esteem or intimacy, or trust so that we know we are not as bad as our…..

Self-Love Matters!

Joffre McClung Self-love 0 0

Self Love Matters! One lacked in self-love. Self-love matters! I want to tell you a story about two people who appeared identical in every way. That is until they hit a very rough period in their lives that shook them to their core. Now one of them felt that if only this or that could happen, she could be happy. Then she could feel safe again. First, she would play over and over in her head everything that had happened……

Late Bloomers & Self-Love

Joffre McClung dreams, Self-love 0 0

Late Bloomers & Self-Love This week’s inspiration is C.S. Lewis’s quote, “You are never too old to set another goal or dream a new dream. I am a late bloomer Self-love taught me to be a late bloomer. I have redefined myself many times. I got my perfect job as a senior producer in TV at the age of 40 after being gone from NYC for four years. I switched careers again when I came out of the spiritual closet and…..
