Hey there, Jen Ryday here, and this is a happy bit. So I was in the kitchen tonight and someone came in

and grabbed a brownie and dropped a ton of crumbs all over the floor, and I found my voice getting a little

tense and frustrated. And then my 13-year-old came in the room and said, Mom, calm down. I like it

more chill. You're sending out negative vibes. And I laughed and I looked at

him and I said, what did you become such a hippie? And it was super funny, but it reminded me of a

quote I heard from Oprah. It goes like this. Please be responsible for the energy bring to the space.

Oprah has this hanging on a wall in her dressing room, or at least she did it one time. And let me share it again.

Please be responsible for the energy you bring to the space. And so my son's comment, along with this

quote, made me remember and want to share that we all are responsible for our energy, for our emotions and feelings.

And sometimes we feel like others might cause us to feel a certain way, but I want to challenge you this week to, number one, pay attention to how you're feeling inside.

Number two, if it's something you don't want to feel, let it go through,

let it pass, pay attention to those sensations in your body and then let them go. And then number

three, decide how you do want to feel and realize you can generate those feelings through your

thoughts and being positive and bringing forth the feeling you want.

It's kind of empowering to realize we can control how we feel.

And it makes all the difference in our own energy and in the energy of the space and people around us.

So give that a try. Let me know how it goes. You can email me at gen. At genridea.com.

And maybe I'll even share your story on a future episode.

So make it a great week.

I'm so grateful for all of you for listening and take care.
