stop feeling guilty about being happy

My late mentor Wayne Dyer used to say that no amount of lack will heal the poverty in the world. This goes for happiness, as well. 

Hear me when I say this: No amount of your own sorrow or grief will heal the suffering in the world. 

In fact, it’s quite the opposite. 

In today’s Big Talk episode of Dear Gabby, I’ll tell you why it’s not only okay to be unapologetically happy,  it’s actually your divine responsibility. You don’t have to feel guilty about being happy!

As you lean into what’s thriving in your life, you’ll have more energy to show up for others. The more you lean into joy, the brighter a light force you can become in this world. 

And during this Big Talk, my friend Fearne Cotton and I offer all kinds of tips for how you can reignite your own source of light. 

Fearne and I are talking about angels today, and I’ll also turn you on to the power of prayer. 

In my work as a spiritual teacher, everything I preach is nondenominational… but prayer is a huge part of my practice! Leaning on prayer has literally saved my life—more times than I can count. 

Press play on today’s Dear Gabby to harness the power of prayer, no matter what religion (or non-religion) you practice. 

having trouble sleeping?

As a survivor of insomnia, I know intimately how scary it is when you can’t get your body to sleep at night. These days, I hit the pillow and sleep for 10 hours a night—CBD-free, baby! 

That is one of my greatest accomplishments in life. 

I want to share the blessing of sleep with you, too, and on today’s Dear Gabby I offer up a technique that has helped me go from zero hours of sleep a night to 10.

This is such a precious moment that happens in my house each night … and I feel called to share it with you, too! 

When my son Oliver was about 10 days old, I channeled a prayer that I said to him as he settled into his bassinet for the night. I’ve been saying it ever since, and the soothing words act as a lullabye for Ollie — and for me!

I share the prayer, word for word, on today’s podcast. I welcome you to use these words to help yourself or a loved one drift off to sleep.
