I'm sharing ways of how I've changed my life. If you aren't happy in your life, you can change. Changing your life so that you can be happier is absolutely possible. Having a life rest and becoming a new person is about adopting new habits. Life is in a constant state of change, so why not change yourself intentionally. Manifest a better life for yourself with intentional habits. You can become a new person and mindfully create your dream life. The power of intention can manifest a new version of yourself.

Need to communicate . send me the e mail.
I have always told my kids to never ignore that little voice; it will save you every time...you have a wonderful spirit, much like a good friend of mine.
That is excellent advice. I wish someone had taught me this when I was much younger
Hurrah to that! Learned the hard way what happens when I ignore it and let my mind take over and it was disastrous! My gut needs no evidence. It knows 100% of the time what is best for me. No one else. Me alone. Thank God for this nudging of my soul to point the way.
I too came from a physically and emotionally abusive home. When I was 11 years old, I entertained serious thoughts about ending my life to escape it, but my childlike faith kept me from doing that. As a teenager I developed what is called the imposter syndrome because to me there was such a disparity between what actually went on in my home and what my school friends assumed my home life was like. My mother hid our abuse, and I did too because I thought no one would like me if they knew. Thank heavens the current victim mentality was not all prevalent at that time when I was growing up, so I was not crippled by that attitude, but rather when I went away to college, I was free to grow to see myself as the author of my life to create, or re-create, both my interior and outer life . I gained a lot of wisdom and encouragement from the reading of great literature and philosophers, and so I deliberately set about to be the best me that I could be. Although my life has still contained some tragedies, I also have found great joy that was able to counteract the darkness of my childhood. I discovered that did not have to live under that cloud. I became determined to help as many young people who were struggling as I could. Several years ago I was named a National Distinguished Teacher of the Year. Whenever I looked at that plaque on my wall from the U.S. Department of Education with my name on it, I remember that shy, traumatized little girl of years ago, and I am able to smile. I would never have believed when I was trapped in those circumstances as a little girl that I would ever have lived the life I have lived, and I am so grateful. No one who knew me then, especially in the economically deprived area I grew up in, would have thought Life would take me where it has! As Dr. Seuss said in his book "Oh, the Places You'll Go,"
You have brains in your head,
You have feet in your shoes,
You can steer yourself,
Any direction you choose!
And I did!
Thank you, thank you, thank you my friend for sharing your story with us. You are truly an inspiration to all who are fortunate to know you. It is through your childhood struggles that gives you the gift to connect with your students. Childhood abuse shapes who become. It is beautiful, that you found strength, self-love, and compassion to overcome your upbringing and become someone incredible.
I'm so glad you are part of our mindful community!
Sending you love, compassion, & happiness my friend
Congratulations on your achievements and "breaking free." I totally relate....be blessed!
Thank u for sharing 💟
You are amazing, thanks for sharing your story and making it easier for others to tell theirs. Sending love and hugs.
Teacher of the Year, yay! Mindfulness is possible. It is probable, if you choose this style of life, as Connie Reit says. I chose it, too, and family calls me "the leader," and "resourceful." Surviving so much trauma makes you available for growing spiritually. Many blessings to you and yours!
I too grew up experiencing parents with alcohol addiction that lead to physical, mental, and emotional abuse. I was hit by a drunk driver, and had a closed head injury. I loved playing the drums, but I also lost my left side having nerve damage, and havent played for years. Thank you for reminding me that I do have a beautiful life. If what happened to you never did happen, I wouldnt be feeling better right now. You were chosen to tell us about your life.. Thank you!
"If it's meant to be,it's up to me," ...A mantra worth embracing
Hello how are you doing??
I have auto-immune conditions and other health challenges that have completely changed my life. I had to give up so much and am only just starting to have some kind of acceptance. I want to tell you Connie, that your videos mean so much to me. You are such a beautiful soul, you really are very, very special. 💕
Hi Andee, I'm so glad that my videos resonate with you! Illness and injury can change the direction in our life within a blink of an eye. Acceptance is key to finding happiness. Show yourself kindness & compassion. Everyday make your self-care the priority.
sending you health & happiness
I too developed an auto immune condition that I have managed to bring under control with diet, nutrition and holistic lifestyle changes. I wish you healing, my friend!🙏🏽☮️🙏🏽
Your gentle voice, your authentic sharing and your simple lifestyle are so impactful. Thank you, Connie for being part of my journey and being a beacon of light. Many blessings to you.
@@monicapatel8098 awda
@@monicapatel8098 same here. All the same things and re-found teaching of Dr John Sarno (for ANY type of chronic pain or illness) and definitely his predecessors Dr Howard Schubiner and Steve Ornich, Dan Buglio with Pain free You on youtube every day, and website, and others. Retraining the limbic system, torally possible and provabel, thousands of testimonies, after the tide of drugs surgeries and trying to live with something -that really can change. I never gave up searching and the name came to my mind one night of a book I looked through as a teenager, that my mom had. At the time meant nothing to be but at 60 it has been a game changer. Absolutely incredible.
I have cfs/me for many years, so I can understand your journey. I had a lot of life changing decisions too. It's not easy, to be centered and focused while things happens: loss of my dad, health issues of my husband, a mom who needs care, a changing body because of age and health issues (I'm 42 now), making job decisions to support my health...
I'm on a long journey too and I'm grateful for finding your channel - your videos are relaxing my nervous system very well and give me new impulses and inspirations. Thank you for that. Greets from Germany, Simone ❤
I just had to pause at the part where you said at 13 you decided to end the cycle of abuse and be a kind and gentle person- wow, that is amazing insight, maturity, self-awareness and wisdom, and you were only 13. Amazing~
I can understand the challenges that come from a devastating illness. I'm a Stage IV cancer survivor. There was life before the cancer, and life after cancer. My health has never been the same since. Daily medication may be a permanent part of my life, sadly.
I hope I can find a peace like you have.
I'm in my 30's and I can't get over how alike our histories have been, in terms of childhood and health.
I aspire to become the calm, kind and wise individual you so clearly are.
I'm past all the anger but my health is not great, shall we say and I'm so scared. Your video made me feel less alone and a little bit hopeful. Thank you, hugs!
Sending you 🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕🌈🌈🌈🦋🦋🦋
Stay strong
Also Ava I listen to beautiful meditations by Pursa Rasa on UA-cam… Shes wonderful especially for healing ❤️🩹
Hi Ava, I'm so glad that my video resonates with you! It has taken me a lifetime to fully love myself, and forgive my parents. The more peace I found, the healthier I became. Do not be afraid of living. Look how far you have already come.
Sending you healing & peace
Social media … If used correctly… Can be so very special … For me your channel your spirit your message is GOLDEN
Thank you Soul sister 🪷🙏🌞
Thank you, my friend!
Joanne you are right
Joanne you are right
oh connie you have been through so much; you are certainly helping so many on here; thank youx
Funny, isn't it, when you've heard the same words hundreds maybe thousands of times before and then WHAM, you hear them again and it's like you're hearing them for the FIRST time! When you said you were telling yourself the "same stories for years and they cemented you to the past" 🎯!!!
I see, once again that the teacher appears when the student is ready!
Chipping away at my cement, I thank you!😊❤
Connie, all your videos bring me peace, hope and joy, but this one resonates 100% with me.
I too had a sad, lack of attention and saw abuse as a child. As a result I have very little confidence in myself and my mind is always in the negative thoughts pattern.
I’ve never been able to do what you’ve done, instead as I’m much older now (70) anxiety fear worry is taking over and I know I need to create a new life for me, even now I want to live however long I have feeling happy and peaceful and create the trust in myself, that I’ve never known! It’s like you did this video for me❤🙏
P
I really hope that you can change your life in small ways to start with that can bring you healing and peace. I hear you, I am 70 next year and am still on the path of healing because of childhood trauma .
Help wasn't available years ago, but there is so much more now and self care, compassion, acceptance of one's self is so promoted now.
Healing prayers and love 🙏 ❤️
@@suespiers9943 Thank you so much for your encouraging words. It’s good to know there is hope at any age to start changing to a more positive and peaceful mindset and way of life. ❤️🙏
❤
Your videos are like poetry. So much peace, comfort, and relaxation.
This is just what I needed today. It was a good reminder of moving forward and how much we can shape our lives. I am a bit older than you but share a similar upbringing. I vowed to be a better person than what I experienced as a child. I had a wonderful time raising my 3 children and now I am on my own trying to envision my future. Thank you again. I look forward to your videos each week. Take care.
Thank you so much, Darlene! It's a true gift to be able to break the pattern of abuse with our own children.
Sending you happiness & peace
I have autoimmune, fibro/cfs, depression/anxiety and ADHD. And have 3 young children. This video was so peaceful for me. I was having a very hard day, a hard week. Thank you Connie for your peaceful words. May I ask what part of Utah was this video filmed? I grew up spending all my Summers in Southern Utah, it is heaven on Earth.
Wish you peace, healing and tranquility.
Cfs too, here
One thing I can tell you is that you are bot alone. Many are going through these feelings at this time. It will pass 😊
@@monicapatel8098 thank you x
I'm in awe of all you mothers out there with CFS. I've had it for 20 years and can't even take care of myself sufficiently. You're amazing!
Connie, your video is so beautiful and uplifting. Thank you! 💕
Oh! Thank you!
Dear connie I am so happy that I found your video , I feel exactly like you do on the hustle and bustle of life, I was raised and come from a very dark side of life on which I have grown tired of being in and for years now I have been searching for peace of mind a safe environment and just a simple life . Everyone keep encouraging m e to level up to boss up and step into the hiring of high society living and what they don't understand that is not what I desire for myself , I have a very giving heart and I don't like saying no to people and a lot of times that puts me in a very bad place with in my own self but I don't worry about it because I know that I can get up and make a way somehow , I love your videos because I am a very lover of nature I love the feeling of being free and one with the universe . I just want to thank you for sharing these videos and it does bring me comfort that there is other people out there who feel and think just like I do you are my confirmation that I am not alone so thank you ✌️
Thank you for this beautiful message. I want to change my life and I needed this so much this morning. ❤
Hello how are you doing?
And you reinforce much of what I have learned in my 12 step fellowship over the years. A blueprint for living. Praise God.
Hi Connie. I am so glad I found you! You are a breath of fresh air and I am grateful for your content. Brave, beautiful soul! Thank you so much.
Wow! Thank you for your kind words!
Yeah you are right darling
Yeah you are right darling
... AND THEN YOU FINALLY GET TO THE POINT IN YOUR LIFE
WHEN IT`S NOT THAT YOU DON`T CARE
WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK,
YOU JUST CARE WHAT YOU THINK MORE.
A LOT MORE!
As soon as you said we are more than our upbringing I started crying.my inner self needed that so bad
Dear Connie, I want to change my Life too. My greatest wish is to find a new lovely boyfriend. I am alone since 9 years, I have four children, which are now all get married. That is wonderful and I am happy about it, but IT is also hard for me to have no man at my side. I go out to meet people and try several things. But at least it is a gift of life to find someone to love and be loved. I try to be no victim and I hope so there is someone outthere for me and we meet us soon ....
Hi Martina, I'm so glad that the video resonated with you! It must be very difficult to be without a partner. You have such a lovely & positive outlook on life. I'm sure the perfect match is waiting for a wonderful woman such as yourself.
happiness & love
Your videos make me feel like I am out in nature with you. Such breathtaking scenery. Your messages that you impart are truly a gift to anyone who is fortunate to listen to them.
I see that now in your eyes your past abuse the hurt but you have overcome that I'm happy for you. I'm going to forward this to someone who "this video" can help. Thanks for sharing 💕
Beautiful, helpful words! Scenery adds to your wise dialogue. Thank you!
Thank you for your kind words.
Thank you for all your advices, I will try to fallow your example, I live from 32 years with multiple sclerosis.
Thanks for posting Connie, really appreciate your time making these videos. Practicing the positive life changes is the key, even small changes. Today I practiced a longer dog walk, sat in nature spent time just being.
I'm so glad that you took time to just "be" in nature. It sounds lovely. Thank you for being part of our mindful community.
Wonderful, wonderful video. Thank you for sharing this.❤
Wow, I can relate to this video in so many ways. I have been working my whole life (I’m 62) to leave my childhood in the past and as one of seven siblings, I have faired far better than the rest of them. Many say that I am just pushing things back and not dealing with them, but it’s allowed me to live a pretty normal life. I’m so glad I’ve found your channel. Thank you.
Thank you Connie, this has arrived at the right time for me to hear. My life has changed direction in a way I never thought it would.
I find myself as a mum raising her 3 teenage boys on my own. I am still on my journey through grief but I really can see the light now and am navigating my way through with the incredible support of my family and friends. I am now starting to visualise my new life and what I want from it. I am surrounding myself with kindness, concentrating on my mental wellbeing and practicing mindfulness everyday. The power of our breath when meditating and yoga daily has literally saved me. I have health challenges too so an acceptance and relearning that it’s not my fault with what I have and that the insecurities surrounding these are not my insecurities to keep but to let go of. I could go on but…
I just want to say, thank you for sharing your beautiful message. Sending love and hugs from the UK.
Namaste Connie 🙏 xx
Hi Nikki, I was a mom at 19 years- old and also found myself a single mother of two by age 25. It can be a very scary and uncertain time, yet as moms, we have to hold it together for the kids. From one mom to another, "You have got this!" You are on the right track. Keep tuning into your intuition for guidance through meditation. When you feel overwhelmed, just breathe. Daydream and journal about your ideal future that is on it's way to you. Things do work out! After my divorce, I met the love of my life at 30. He's that handsome, loving man in all of my videos. 😊
Sending you happiness & peace along this NEW journey.
@@ConnieRiet Hi Connie, thank you for your kindness. It has/is a journey that’s for sure.
I’m 41 and am learning so much about myself. My friend s and family have truly been wonderful and have let me go through this in my own time, no one has rushed me, told me how I should be feeling etc. I am truly grateful for this. I don’t think I’d be where I am without this time and space I’ve needed.
My mind is so my clearer now, yes I still have days where I feel like I’m a bit stuck but they are very few and far between now.
I am so much happier apart than before, I couldn’t see how suffocated I had become and how controlled I was.
Mediation is my crutch and I am enjoying seeing everyday things with fresh eyes. The town I live in, has been my home since I was born and yet it’s like I’m seeing it for the first time.
That’s lovely you met your love, maybe there’s hope for me haha.
Thank you again, sending peace and happiness back to you 🙏❤️
Hello Connie
Thank you for sharing your story I too have an Auto immune illness which I was diagnosed with over 3 years ago, & I Strongly believe that my illness was due to a lot of stress in my life. I am a very Spiritual person & I knew that I had to make serious changes in my everyday life & in so many different way's. And I must admit it wasn't an easy journey for me in every aspect, & I realised that I had to work very hard to get where I am at this point in my life. I have found similar people like myself, whom I associate with really well & have the same interests & beliefs that I have which is so important to have! Also listening to uplifting, motivating, encouraging video's like yours is a blessing 🙏🙂 Have a wonderful week ahead & many thanks once again 🦋💖
Hi Jules, Thank you for sharing your story. Like you, I belief my auto immune illness came from stress. It has also been a life long journey to find ways to be happy in the moment.
Sending you happiness & peace my friend
As I stand on the edge of my time,
looking back at the life that was mine
Seeing my life in the form of a jigsaw puzzle
only reminds me of the struggle
I am lost within my mind
as if I was drunk on cheap wine
I hear the echoes of a thousand voices
expounding of the virtues of my choices
It is all to familiar and yet so taunting
images that linger are so haunting
There were times I felt incomplete
moments that were bittersweet
Wondering if I could have done anything different
the little things that seemed so insignificant
It was at this point in time
the fog was lifted from my mind
It was if someone switched on a light
it was all within my sight
My entire life flashed before my eyes
it was then that I realized
I was dwelling on the trivial strife
when there was so much more to my life
I had forgotten the beauty, awl and wonder
that had been put asunder
Life is a collective experience
overflowing with amazing ingredients.
Absolutely love this!!! ❤❤
I think there is only one path and that’s the path that opens for us. Whether you make a decision or not, you’re still moving along your path.
Thanks So much Connie! This video is exactly what I needed. Although I did a lot of therapy. I have still a lot of social anxiety. I do guided meditation sometimes which is very good but what you told me today is so much more. Thank you Connie ❤️.
Sending you happiness & peace
God you think exactly like me. Love life. Love nature! Love calm. 🦋💙
I have multiple sclerosis. This was so peaceful to watch and listen to. Your voice is so relaxing. Thank you❤❤
Hi Connie, you are such a kind, gentle and compassionate human being who gives me so much inspiration to become the best version of me. Thank you.
Oh! Thank you so much!
It's very peaceful to hear you in your videos. They really motivate to become better. You inspire...
I would love to hear why you choose the foods you eat. What are the health benefits from your choices.
Hi Shirley, I made a video about the foods I don't eat for my health. Here is the link ua-cam.com/video/nfoewuGlGhc/v-deo.html
I eat whole, unprocessed foods, a lot of vegetables and fruit, olive oil, salmon, nuts, seeds, avocados. Here is the link to what I eat ua-cam.com/video/xJdOeyKTRBU/v-deo.html
Thank you so much once again for a beautiful message. It calms me to listen and take it all in.
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
My biggest struggle is always feeling like I'm choosing between my inner peace and others i love happiness. I have never found the balance. For short moments i realize i am just as valued as i value others.
I thank you Connie. Sincerely.💕

And made me rethink what I want in my future. I'm going to try slower to change my life to have a more simple life and just enjoy it more. Thank you for sharing your journey.

Happiness & peace
You are an inspiration for me ❤
Hi Connie
Thank you so much for this beautiful video. It echoes where I am in my life at the moment.
I was recently diagnosed with MS after suddenly loosing sight in one eye ( all ok now). Luckily it’s inactive at the moment. I am also having a couple of other health issues as well as dealing daily with my beloved ADHD. With all of this plus running my llama farm my brain feels like a whirlpool nearly every minute of every day. You have given me a great positive perspective with how to look to a positive future. Accepting is a major step which I have tried to do.
I will definitely try bringing your suggestions into my life now.
Thank you
🙏🦙
very very true. creating ourselves means that we have to change ourselves, the finding journey should be the journey of changing ourselves.... i love the point. ❤👍
Connie you have no idea how meaningful this message was to me today. Thank you so much
I'm so glad!
