❤❤❤
While listening to Mahara, I realized I also need to stretch my comfort zone a bit this year 😉 anyone else felt the same?
Thank you so much for the conversation! Here’s to you! 👑
It was a pleasure having you 🌟
Sometimes my life is full of obstacles. My word for 2025 is authenticity
Love your 2025 word. And obstacles define us, don't shine away, you are stronger than you think you are 🌟
I read your book and is fantastic! It helped me a lot, I recommend it to everyone ✌
@@SafiraTara awww tnx Safira, so happy to hear!
Yeey, I'm so happy you are starting new season. Can you speak more about boundaries? My mother in law keeps pushing my limits
@@LauraWest-b2d Laura, with pleasure! Will dedicate one episode only to boundaries. Be assertive and kind with her 💖
Congrats on one year anniversary 😻
@@receptizazdravje5644 thank you dear 🙏🏼
Jaz in tesnoba sva v vojnem stanju.Zmaga bo moja.Je hudo,a sem našla že dosti pomoči.
Samo pogumno naprej. Ste močnejši, kot si predstavljate!
❤❤❤
👍🌹
I really liked the idea of different ego states. Where can I read more about it?
Start with the TA bible, TA today by Ian Steward and Vann Joines
Amen.
How do you feel about the holidays? Are you happy to spend time with family/ friends or are they making you anxious?
V pravem trenutku! ❤
Naj pomaga 💕
🥰🥰🥰
Lepa. Hvala za lepe misli in besede. ❤
Hvala vam. Redno imejte sebe in svoje dobro počutje v mislih ✨
I fall asleep when counting 5-7-8
@@LauraWest-b2d you do it before sleep? Good to know 😊
What should I do if I find it difficult to breathe through my nose due to congestion or other issues?
@@LauraWest-b2d hi Laura. If your nose is congested, you can try neti pot. It is commonly used in a practice known as nasal irrigation, where a saline solution is poured into one nostril and allowed to flow out of the other to help clear nasal passages. Or if there are some physical barriers, go and see a otolaryngologist for a solution.
🤩🤩🤩
Fix your money. Make enough in a way that is fitting for you. Best way to relax ever. This comment is not a joke. <3 Good luck. P.s. women: be a good wife to let your man do it for you.
@@TheeSirGeorge this is so true. Many anxieties derive from existential problems. Having good relationships and financial stability can solve many problems. Tnx for your comment
I just want you to know that your videos are so therapeutic and helpful to me, during and even outside of periods of mental and emotional distress. I am very grateful for your existence and deeply inspired your ways of being. Genuine thank you from the bottom of my heart 🙏
Awww, thank you so much
Ladies, you two are amazing. Thank you for being here and sharing your knowledge!
This is so kind of you! Thank you ❤️
Small actionable steps always help!
They do!
I watched this one twice :) Thank you!
Oh really? What did you like the most?
@@petrakmetec The exercise and that avoiding it doesn’t work. Thank you also for all the tools we can use.
I'm glad it helped :)
I want to go to Costa Rica!
Me too 😃
hilarious
Happy you like it ☺️
😂😂😂
This comparison is really intriguing. I never realized how different other cultures can be.
Oh yes. I see that a lot while traveling the world. Different ways of thinking, different things are funny or unacceptable, really interesting
I love journaling too! It is my therapist 🤗
How long are you journaling?
🤭🤭🤭 it never works 🌧️💰
😁 no, it doesn’t
🤭🤭🤭 so true. You are so funny 😁
Aww, thank you 🙏🏼
🐞🙏🏻🙏🏻
Lol, I needed this to schedule a zoom call with my friend 🤠 I keep thinking I'm gonna call her tomorrow and you can guess the rest...
Do that. Friends are important 🫶🏼
This a good reminder! I forgot about gratitude 🙏
You are so welcome 🤗
This reminds me on someone I know... And she is not happy at all.. 🤭
Guess why 😅
Lol, this is so true 🙈😂
It is, right?
I'm blessed also with my family and friends
Ain't that a great feeling? Thank you for being here!
Yes, action!
..and a lot of it :)
I needed this. My fav channel 🥰
Awww, thank you so much. Your support means a lot to me!
I'm also a fan :)
I enjoyed listening to you. What advice would you give if I can’t seem to push myself to do something I really want to do? I keep making plans but never follow through, and it frustrates me a lot.
You know, this is a common problem. First ask yourself what is holding you back and what do you gain with not following through? What deeper need are you fulfilling with not executing your plans? And when you have those answers, you can make a strategy, that is more holistic and personalized for your needs. If you want guidance, DM me on petra@petrakmetec.com
I've never heard of this permaculture money mindset before, and it's fascinating! Now I feel I'm really wealthy. Thanks
I'm glad this discussion opened new perspective for you :)
Thank you! If you want to learn more how to adopt this I’d love to work with you💖💖
OMG, I'm so happy I found you! I really found myself in this. It is so important to show up, not to give up our dreams and find the motivation. Such a good talk. Thank you both!
Yes! Exactly 👍 It is important not to give up on your dreams... Thank you for being here!
Hi, yes, we def need friends, tnx for this.
Thank you 🙏 and remember to be fully present with them 🤗
Brez čakanja, v akcijo 🥰
Tako je!
Yes....always smile...from Manila Philippines....
Hi and welcome 🤗 I adore Philippine people, you are always smiling 😊
Super si.
Hvala 🙏🏼
Spoštovani Vaši videi so odlični, a žal ste "zapustili" slovenski jezik oz vsaj prevod. Hvala za razumevanje in lep pozdrav. 😊
Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful islands. I will be moving from Ireland to Ecuador late next year when I retire and, I know for a fact that, if I for some unknown reason, have to move back to Europe at some point, the absolutely only place in Europe living up to myifestyle are the Azores which I love to bits?? It's the islands, it's the people living there, it's the beautiful nature, the whales... all of it and, biodivercelike Ecuador.. 🌹♥️🌹 Thanks again for sharing all this about these wonderful islands in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean... Please don't tell toom any, how beautiful it all really is out there....I keep these iands in my chest as my secret gem in Europe....♥️♥️♥️
Hi dear and thank you for your lovely feedback. Which island would you move to? I love Terceira for its culture, but other islands are gorgeous because of the landscape. Will definitely come back to explore them all 😍
❤️❤️❤️

Pozdravljena Petra, sem sveža upokojenka in imam čas predelovati preteklost in prihodnost😮. Odkar sem vas našla na netu, mi delate družbo pri vsakem zajtrku in mi polepšate dan. Hvala Beti
