Mindset Buffet

 Do you know why it’s so hard to break a "bad" habit? Because the moment you label it as bad , you attach negativity to it. This creates resistance—you either try to avoid it or forcefully get rid of it. But the mind operates on energy. Whether something is positive or negative, the more attention you give it, the more energy it receives—like feeding it fuel. So instead of disappearing, it grows. The harder you try to push it away, the stronger it holds on. Any repeated tendency to do something—even when you don’t truly prefer it—signals a misalignment. Misalignment creates a sense of incompleteness, like an empty space within you. That emptiness seeks to be filled, whether with food, substances, or other external distractions. To truly change this pattern, the first step is acceptance. Become aware of it, because any feeling of discomfort or incompleteness is an invitation to explore your deeper needs—your soul’s true calling. Suppose you tend to overeat. Instead of feeling ...

Once upon a time, in a village nestled between two great mountains, there was a river called Lumina. The villagers believed the river was alive, carrying messages from the heart of the earth to the endless sky. Some days, Lumina flowed gently, sparkling under the sun. Other days, she roared with storms, her waters wild and untamed. The villagers would often say, "Lumina is angry today," or "Lumina is happy." But an old wise woman named Mira saw things differently. "Lumina is neither good nor bad," she would tell the children who gathered around her. "She simply flows. And just like the river, emotions are energy—they need to move, not be blocked." One day, a young boy named Kai came to Mira with tears in his eyes. "I feel so angry, but I know anger is bad," he said. Mira shook her head gently. "Who told you anger is bad?" "Everyone says so. They say I shouldn't feel it." Mira led Kai to the river’s edge and picke...

Parenting is one of the most profound journeys of life, and conscious parenting takes it to the next level. If you aspire to be a "Super Parent," embracing the AAA SMILE approach can transform your connection with your child and create a harmonious family environment. AAA SMILE parenting is built on three A’s and six essential parenting principles, forming a foundation of love, understanding, and joy. The Triple A’s of Parenting Allow – Let kids be themselves.

Appreciate – See your child as a divine being, another aspect of source on its evolution journey who choose you to be an important accompany. Remove the mindset of you know...

  The Power of Self-Love: Unlocking Freedom, Abundance, and True Connection From the moment we are born, we are free, abundant, and natural manifesters. We come into this world with limitless potential, unburdened by self-doubt or fear. But as we grow, external influences—societal expectations, family pressures, and personal experiences—begin shaping our self-perception. When we unconsciously believe we are not worthy, we unknowingly limit ourselves. We avoid opportunities, second-guess our abilities, and even attract people who do not value us. The way we treat ourselves forms the foundation of how others will treat us. Our relationship with ourselves is the basis for every other relationship in our lives. The Cost of Self-Denial When we fail to embrace our true selves, self-denial often manifests in unhealthy ways—complaining about circumstances, blaming others for our unhappiness, or feeling trapped in situations that don’t align with our highest good. Without self-love, we beco...

As a teacher, I have followed a unique and unconventional path. I earned my Ph.D. in sustainable agriculture and pursued postdoctoral research at Nanjing University and UC Davis for three years. After the birth of my second son, I chose to become a stay-at-home mom, dedicating six years to raising my two sons. This period was precious, filled with beautiful memories. During those years, I explored my interests in psychology, parenting, mind science, and personal development, almost forgetting about the necessity of a career. Then, my family returned to China, and I resumed research at Tongji University in Shanghai. Although I was productive at work, I increasingly felt unfulfilled and even depressed. Two years later, in 2016, I returned to the U.S. and began teaching science for the Panda preschool class. This experience refreshed me and reignited my curiosity. I then became an associate teacher for the Panda class, teaching for two hours a day—those two hours became the happiest part ...
