Description:

It's no secret that the news has been inundated with negative stories and happenings lately. But the reality is that if we have time to worry and complain, then we have time to take positive action, too. And that's exactly what I talk about in today's episode.

This is Part 4 in a 5-part series about practical tips, staying open and resourced, and shifting our mindsets so we don't become weighed down by all of the bad news stories.

We should be aware of what's going on in the world but we should digest that information when we're in the best frame of mind to do so. That way, we can spend our time doing something useful about it—something that can make the world a better place.

Notes from the show: 

- Share what you believe but do so in a way that comes from a place of clean energy

- Post supportive, love-based thoughts and stories on social media

- Attend peaceful protests or use artistic expression to convey your message

- Take Mr. Rogers' advice and "Look for the helpers"

- Volunteer, make donations, send energy - do whatever you feel most comfortable with
