In a world built upon consumption, what happens if we question the paradigm and instead cultivate happiness with what we have? This is a big topic that goes WAY beyond "things", and incorporates our basic state of mind and motivation. Come along as we explore the power of loving what you have!
Here are this episodes' Action Points:Foster Your Mindfulness Practice-- We talk about this all the time, but it's that vital. A mindfulness practice will change your life! =)Make a "What I Want" List-- Make a list of what you want in life. Not the usual list (a million bucks, a hot new mate), but the things you think those million bucks will get you. What is it you REALLY want in life, at the base?Examine a Current Action-- Take a current action you're engaged in (maybe you're looking for a new job) and ask how that action is tied to a goal. Then ask what you really want to get from reaching that goal. Awareness of this kind can sometimes reveal new creative ways to get what you are really after, or help you realize you may already have what you want (it might just have been hiding in disguise).Send us an email or visit rewildu.com (https://rewildu.com/) and let us know what you thought of this episode!

We all want to eat healthy, don't we? But what diet is best? Raw vegan? Paleo? Whole 30? Mediterranean? Join us as we leave behind specific diets and instead talk about how loving our food, eating consciously, and losing food fears can transform our health and life enjoyment!
Here are this episodes' Action Points:Do Some Positive Food Research-- When you're cooking, take a moment to research some of the health benefits of one of the ingredients.

Try new ingredients (foraged food anyone?), cuisines, recipes, or cooking techniques.Add a Focus Affinity Before You Eat-- Take a moment before you eat to get into a mindful state. Share some gratitude, pray, or do something else to bring you present moment.Make a Meal To Share-- Cook for friends or loved ones!

UYL Season 2, Episode 23, Change Your Happiness Baseline
We all have a "baseline" of happiness in our lives, and research shows that the ups and downs of life (which we spend so much time trying to acquire and avoid, respectively) don't really impact that baseline very much. So the secret to happiness isn't arranging our externals appropriately so much as cultivating an inner joy. But how do we do that? Come along as we explore how to shift that baseline!
Here are this episodes' Action Points:
Smile-- Smiling is almost magical in its ability to change our own attitude (and it's contagious!). Take a short-duration task and try smiling the whole time. How do you feel? How do those around you respond?
Invite Someone-- Foster more human connection in your life by inviting a friend or three to tea, a campfire, a hike, etc. Human connection is a proven life enhancer!
The Gratitude Bowl-- Fill a bowl with pieces of paper on which you've written all sorts of things in your life. People, objects, abilities -- things both tangible and intangible. Then, once a day (or as often as you like!) pull one out and imagine that you no longer have that thing. What does it feel like to have lost it? And then reverse things and feel gratitude for having it.
