And so oftentimes it's just something petty that I'm afraid of, like I'm not going to make enough money or I'm not good enough. And then I start to Label that emotion. Like this is fear, this is anger, this is sadness, and then I can start to work on releasing that emotion. So it's not just like pushing it away, it's actually releasing it." - Jarrod Reichelt"When you're making the decision to neglect the values, then you're also then adversely affecting your wellness, your health, your mood, your happiness. And so there's all those things to consider and to contemplate when trying to find that balance is if I go too strong in one way, then I'm going to be missing out on the other." - Jarrod ReicheltConnect with Jarrod through Instagram, or by emailing him at [email protected].
