I too have felt inadequate, ugly, physically clumsy, not very good at math, unattractive, not popular, and rejected. I too, like the ugly duckling, bought into the story that I was an impostor. Have you felt something like that? These imperfections weighed you down and you tried to hide them in some way in order to survive?

This week I’m bringing you the second part on Mindfulness. This time, we are going to focus on different practices that you can start on your own because they are super simple. Sacred pause Mindfulness meditation Mindfulness groups Write a mindful journal Conscious Visualization Mindful body care and movement Key attitudes in the practice of Mindfulness

This podcast has been inspired by a client who told me, “I’d like to start practicing mindfulness in our sessions. It’s so fashionable nowadays that I’m intrigued”. I’m telling you this with a broad smile and sparkling eyes because when my clients ask me to dedicate some part of their sessions to Mindfulness, it makes my day. I’d also like to underscore or highlight my client’s words, “mindfulness, which is so fashionable”. It is clear that my client meant that Mindfulness is becoming more and more well known these days. Nevertheless, Mindfulness is a millenary practice that has its origins in Buddhism, Zen, Yoga, and Hinduism. In the west, mindfulness became super popular because it was applied within a stress reduction program, which has been a benchmark of mind-body medicine recognized by the National Institute of Health of the USA and by Humanistic and Transpersonal Psychology, which is the one I have studied thoroughly and the one I commune with.

I wrote this article for Psicologia y Mente Magazine. We all experience rage, anger, sadness, and even despair when we want something, we work to achieve it, but there’s an obstacle in our path. The problem is not feeling frustrated from time to time but anchoring frustration as part of our lives and covering it up by taking up unhealthy habits or throwing in the towel directly.

I have a powerful meditation to share with you that will fill you with inspiration and will be a super powerful tool for you..

I’ve been told that I haven't talked about romantic love for a long time and it’s so true that I’m bringing you a podcast on the subject. When I sat down to think about how I would structure this post, I remembered all the love books I've read, all the romantic movies I've seen, and all the melodies about desperate lovers I've hummed. The title alludes to writer Pablo Neruda’s book because I believe that for every twenty love poems that we embody, we go through endless desperate songs. I wish my younger self, the one who went to therapy feeling distraught, the one who cried with so many fears, would have been told, “calm down, you'll see how everything falls into place”. I’m not talking about things falling into place magically, but about doing the right job on oneself, recovering our power, and falling in love with ourselves and with our life to be able to welcome another person later.

This week I have a double invitation for you. First, I’m going to offer you this podcast about our need to have everything under control, how much suffering that tendency brings about and how to overcome it. If you can read in Spanish, I’m also sharing with you an article I wrote in Psicología y Mente magazine (Psychology and Mind in English), which delves into the topic in depth and offers you concrete tools to free yourself.

In the northern hemisphere, September is the month children re-start school and parents return to their work after the summer break. The great number of external demands naturally triggers all kinds of strong emotions for kids and adults alike. How do you feel when your busyness levels rise significantly?

This week I’m inviting you to do this multi-layered meditation that will help you calm down physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. If you are used to meditating, do this meditation as you always do (on the floor, on a chair, lying down, etc). If you don't usually meditate, just close your eyes and listen to my voice. Let go of control and dive in what I’m telling you.

This week I’m sharing with you an article I wrote for Elephant Journal magazine about the role of fear in my own life and how challenging it has been. It’s a very intimate account about how I learned to pause and look at it in the eye to see what it had to teach me. We can learn so much when we get how to relate to fear and not with it. Below’s the link to the autobiographical article on Elephant Journal: https://www.elephantjournal.com/2022/07/how-fear-can-be-our-teacher-georgina-hudson/ If you speak Spanish, you might also enjoy my latest article on Psicología y Mente magazine about the challenges we face to feel true peace of mind. This will shed a lot of light on the topic and it will provide you with very concrete tools to feel at ease. https://psicologiaymente.com/coach/por-que-nos-cuesta-sentir-paz A big hug

Have you ever been told…“You are too sensitive, nobody can tell you anything”. “Your life’s chaos, no wonder you lose everything”. “You’re overweight/skinny, do something if you want to have a partner”. “This child’s restless, are you sure he doesn't have ADHD?” “Are you anxious again, really?” Behind every phrase I mentioned at the very beginning, there’s a subliminal message that shames, repudiates and disempowers the one who’s told that. How do we usually respond to that?

One says "intimate pleasure" and what comes to mind is sex. Unfortunately, there isn’t a more bastardized word than “sex”. We associate pleasure with the secret, the dirty, the forbidden, what should not be done or told, porn, shameless people, and even vulgarity. However, intimate pleasure, has to do with love, acceptance, security and presence.

This week I’d like to invite you to talk about love, not in general, but romantic love. Are there recipes for couples to work? How do some couples manage to feel unbridled passion, have fun and support each other in everything? Is that so though? Or is it just my perception that perfection is available out there but not in here?

This article is dedicated to all the parents and/or caregivers who have to reconcile work with their children's summer or winter break. Children look forward to their well-deserved rest. As parents, however, we can experience a lot of stress because we love our children and we want them to reset and have fun but we may not have as much energy or free time to be with them. We may feel overwhelmed when we see that our children don’t have much to do, or when they feel bored, or when they’re plugged into technology, and lack a routine. Not surprisingly when faced with this scenario, many parents keep their children busy with summer or winter camps, vacation schools, or an array of different pastimes. It is not bad if your children enjoy that, but what happens when they don’t? What happens when they feel tired after the school year and they want to feel more relaxed and obligations free?

This week we are going to talk about how to honor our life by preserving our capacity to feel awestruck. I really like watching children because for them life is beautiful. A child sees a little bird or a butterfly and they feel ecstatic. They go to the park, see a high slide, and they get most excited. I don't know what happens to us, the older ones, because as we grow older, we lose the fascination for the little things that surround us.

The ones who live in the northern hemisphere have started to feel the rise in temperature and with it the need to take off our clothes and show our bodies. Regardless of whether you show your body or not, what do you feel when you look at your body in the mirror? I’m not only referring to our curves or lack of them. I’m also referring to our aging faces and hair. This is a sensitive issue shared by my male and female clients alike.

This week's topic has been inspired by the way time has passed in my own life and by my personal and professional reflections. I don't know about you, but I spent a good part of my life wishing that the times that were challenging would pass quickly. I had this thought that the future would always be better. And you?

This week we are going to celebrate the new month with a meditation that will help us to be more grounded, relaxing every muscle, every cell, and any tension you may be experiencing. If you have a tendency to live in your mental space rather than the physical one (thinking, creating, and even worrying), you will like this meditation that will help you get in touch with your body and the earth feeling more present and calm. Enjoy it!

This week's topic is dedicated to all the people who feel vulnerable with the state of the world and with their personal, family and professional challenges. Every day we witness situations that put our resilience to the test. Therefore, we are called to be more aware of our emotional state and to learn how to regulate it. You’re probably wondering what resilience and emotional regulation are. In simple terms, I’d say that ... you should listen to this podcast! 😀

Today’s topic is equally valid for tantrums, rebellious teenagers, and even adults with their losses, frustrations, and difficulties. One of the most human tendencies in the world in these situations is the desire to remove the other person’s pain. It is a very noble thing indeed but in our effort to relieve the other person; we trespass the other person's territory. So… what can we do?

This week I bring you an article I wrote for Psychology and Mind magazine. It's about why forgiving and asking for forgiveness can liberate us. It's a challenge, someone hurts us and we get stuck in rage, blame, and astonishment. When we hurt others, we might get into a loop of self-punishment, justification or regret. However, none of this spares us from suffering. On the contrary, it increases it. That is why; I want to share with you 3 reasons why granting forgiveness and asking for it is highly beneficial for you.

This week I’m bringing you this beautiful tapping session to reduce stress, worry, and anger, which are the topics I’ve been talking lately, and thus, help you restore balance at all levels.Just in case you’re new to the podcast, remember that this technique involves tapping on different meridian points on the face and body and repeating phrases that will bring negative emotions to the forefront to accept and release them. Are you interested in the subject and want to know more?

Someone hurt us and we began to feel that heat inside, that uncontrollable anger and that desire to punch back in the most painful way possible so that the other gets what he or she deserves. Our reaction by default, for the most part, is to attack back, and be aware of the fact that attacking is not always screaming. It’s sometimes connected to stone walling the other person where neither a word nor a glance is directed at him or her. The number of cases that we create on our minds when we are very angry is impressive. 😤

This week's article is based my very personal experience, no less! By now, you’ve probably learned that I’m against wearing masks and speaking from a place of superior knowledge and having it all figured out. As you know, I dedicate every day of my life to specializing in emotions, and how to get the most out of living with well-being not only because it’s important for my profession but also because it’s key for myself. Nevertheless, that doesn’t mean that I don’t have setbacks, which may have serious consequences.

This week I’m bringing you an article I wrote for Psicología y Mente magazine (Psychology and Mind) on how we can step into our power and live our lives with confidence. When you dare to write your own story and stop playing the role that others have written for you, you start feeling at peace, in harmony, and with total freedom.

Today we are going to relax and empower ourselves with some affirmations that I’d like you to listen to and repeat whenever you feel that your batteries are running low and that you need strength, support, and motivation. Breathe in consciously, and silently or aloud, repeat the affirmations after me.

We started talking about this topic last week when we focused on priorities and boundaries. Today we’re going to expand on how our beliefs and our identity influence our quality of life.

Sometimes we carry so much on our shoulders that we feel like they’re going to break. The challenge is to have the discernment to know what we can take out of our backpack in order to live our vision and mission feeling lighter.

Two years ago, government announced a lockdown because of Covid. We have lived all this time without knowing what direction our jobs would take, what would happen to children's studies, to our finances, and to our health. Suddenly, something in me made me pause and change my original topic. I’m not going to talk about Covid but about how my clients and I feel in these uncertain times.

As a subscriber suggested, we’re going to talk about loneliness. We are used to talking about our relationships but what happens when something happens to us and we are suddenly left alone? And what what happens when we seek loneliness out of sheer joy? This is a broad topic because there are several types of loneliness. I’m going to focus on circumstantial loneliness and loneliness which is chosen.

This meditation will help you step into your power and strengthen your connection with the Universe to be able to manifest what you keep in your heart. This meditation will elevate your state and allow you to let go of control and receive what the Universe has for you. Remember that thoughts come and go. If you get distracted, acknowledge it, and return to the meditation. Relax and follow my voice. May you enjoy it.

Have you ever felt so inspired by what you were doing that you created things without stress or pushing? That’s Flow, and I am officially certified as a Flow Coach to help my clients enter states where they flow with life. Unlike the detailed description I gave you in other publications, I want to talk to you from my own experience and not just about the subject.

That job was easy for me and I had a great salary. Was I unhappy? No, on the contrary, I loved interacting with people. Was it enough? It was economically but spiritually, it was not. I wouldn’t say I was trapped but I was wearing a corset that limited what I could do. What happens when you don’t feel in a cage at work but you feel frustrated any way?

This week's topic was suggested by a subscriber who bravely shared his unease at feeling stuck “in a negative loop” in his love relationships. He’s been feeling trapped in relationships where he is deceived or where he deceives himself. He gets excited about the person he begins dating only to discover he’s been betrayed, which leads to his blaming himself for having trusted that person.

It isn’t easy for me, it hurts me so much that I’m moved to tears as I’m writing. My father became a widower more than a year and a half ago. My father, the careless one, the innocent in many things, the one who needs many lessons about emotional and social intelligence, is now old and alone. What can we do when one or both of our parents need us as a compass to continue on their path in their later years?

I’ve been asked to tell my stories. Today, I’d like to share with you a relationship that I had that was exciting but also harmful, addictive, and stressful. It had its positive side but the good peaks were very high and the bad ones were too low. It was literally like living on an emotional roller coaster. Unlike last week that we talked about a healthy relationship where doubts can naturally arise, in this particular relationship, I lived orbiting my ex, who overshadowed me for a while. Then I got tired, and the one who began to move around me was he. I’ve chosen one of my most painful life experiences in the spirit that it’ll serve you. You might be going through something similar or you might be putting yourself last on your list. I hope this helps you get to know, understand, value, care for, and love yourself.

We all want to feel in love but it’s so complicated, right? I always say that if friends were our significant others, we’d be alone or full of doubts. Nevertheless, the lack of stress and expectations in this area makes friendship so much easier. We grow up wanting to live happily ever after, which is extremely idyllic, isn’t it? And that’s where the problem begins.

Today I’d like to talk about something that comes up very frequently in my sessions. It’s about apologies that don’t feel enough. What happens when someone says "I'm sorry" but it doesn't relieve us? What can be going on when we are the ones who ask for forgiveness and the other person doesn’t take it well? In your work or in your personal life, you’ve surely been on one side or the other. It’s important to be well equipped to be able to ask for forgiveness with real intention. Writer Gilbert Chesterton said it very clearly, “A stiff apology is a second insult... The injured party does not want to be compensated because he has been wronged; he wants to be healed because he has been hurt.” The key is to help heal the wound with sincere regret. So, if saying "I'm sorry" isn't enough, what are the ingredients of a real apology?

Today I´d like to share with you what I usually experience during this time of the year. For starters, I like the decorations, the lights, the markets, the Christmas carols, the shop windows and the Christmas movies. On the other hand, I have to admit that by mid-December, I start to feel a lot of pressure. Is it only me or are there many people who feel uneasy about the Holidays?

Last Thursday was Thanksgiving in some parts of the world. I must say I’ve started to ask myself how many times we pause to say thank you during the year. We rarely do it, right? We stubbornly focus on what we don't want and what we don't have, but we seldom devote our energy to what we do like and what we already enjoy. Mind you, if we lose what we take for granted, we do notice it, a lot! It’s important to train ourselves to be grateful.

Last week we had an introduction to the fixed and growth mindsets. Today I’m going to show you my story with both and how adopting one or the other has helped me or harmed me. I want to own my truth and be unapologetically me just in case you feel the only one with your frame of mind.

Today we’re going to talk about mindset or “mental frames”. Adopting one mindset or the other can be a catalyst for opportunity and fulfilment or for withdrawal and fear. Let me ask you a few questions: At school, did you feel that your intelligence was okish but you weren't outstanding like the best students? Did you feel that you were very good at academic subjects but that you weren’t born for sports? In your life nowadays, do you obsess when somebody criticizes you, your behavior, or what you’ve accomplished? If you see that someone like you is suddenly doing very well, do you secretly feel jealous or envious?

I hope that the first part of this blog / podcast helped you understand yourself better. The 6 Human Needs developed by Tony Robbins aren’t simple wishes and desires but deep rooted needs that serve as the basis for our behavior and choices. Today we are going to delve into the rest of the 6 human needs. These are: 4. Love / connection 5. Growth 6. Contribution

Tony Robbins has dedicated his life to studying human behavior, and he concluded that regardless of our origin and culture, we all have 6 needs in common. The topic is both simple and profound, that’s why I’d rather talk about it over the course of two weeks. Today we will focus on Certainty, Variety and Recognition.

More often than not, I hear the phrases “I'm exhausted”, “I can’t go on like this anymore”, “I'm overwhelmed”. It is the new normal, stress is the real pandemic. We find it so difficult to relax, to find 10’ to meditate or 30’ to do something that nurtures our soul. I can’t help comparing our experience with a pressure cooker. I hope that we can start noticing that. Learn more about Reactive and Responsive brain as well as 12 practices that will help you take a break.

The pandemic has urged many people to reinvent themselves. There are others who already had a burning desire to start a new career path but who pushed it down for fear of the unknown. There’s something frightening and paralyzing when, after careful analysis of every aspect of the new venture, inaction persists.
