This Tough Life

Door Reuben Lowe

Wat je zal leren

Reaffirm your spiritual outlook on life when times are tough, by developing a kinder relationship with yourself. Life throws us curve balls, sometimes predictably, mostly unpredictably. This Tough Life is about helping us get through tough times. Life is difficult. We haven’t been conditioned to be there for ourselves. It’s not the default mode of the mind to be there for ourselves. But with the power of awareness, and a gentle shift of intention, we can. This is about developing a kinder relationship with ourselves in the face of these curveballs. It is my hope that in taking part in this course it will help you move through the tough times that we experience in this tough life. In doing so, you’ll be enriching your life more-so, as you enhance a deeper connection with yourself, as you strengthen the resilience within you, as you grow the capacity for kindness and compassion, developing and enhancing your own sense of spirituality. In doing so, you’re empowering yourself, as well as helping other people to be part of the mindful change that’s happening in the world right now.

This Tough Life (Let's Go For A Walk)

What do you want to do right now as you listen to? We could go for a walk. Or would you rather sit, or lay down? It’s up to you. It’s my hope that this will set the scene for us to do some gentle reflecting. Let's explore some simple questions to help us gain perspective.

Les 2

Being Okay With Not Being Okay

In day 2, we will explore insights into the human mind and inner-resistance, then we will use a strategy called the Conscious Release. We will finish off with some validating affirmations for you to gently absorb to help you with the art of being okay with not being okay.

Les 3

Finding The Calm In The Storm

In day 3, we start with a metaphor. Then we have a practice that uses a specific technique to help down regulate the nervous system, as well as helping us realign with ourselves. This is so we can return to being more grounded, centred, and regulated in this tough life.

Les 4

Practicing The 3 Ns

In day 4, there's a simple yet profound message. We focus on The 3 Ns of Self-Compassion. This gives us a tool to put this into practice for when times are tough. Then, we'll finish with some affirmations for managing this tough life.

Les 5

Acknowledging Your Inner-Strength

In day 5, we acknowledge the times when you pulled through. We also explore how our brains don't like to give us the credit for those times that we've pulled through, the qualities that we have shown, our inner strength that has come through in those tough times.

Les 6

For All Those People (I Am Here For Me)

In our final day, I share my thoughts with you about my experience of these tough times. The affirmations start with honouring all those people that are going through tough times. Then they progress into honour you. The you that has showed up to practice today. The you that is here for you.

Every day in this course resonated with me in meaningful way. I appreciate the understanding and descriptions of ALL the different waves of emotions and how they were followed up with gentle options of how to process and respond to them.

I came across this course at a tough time - multiple events in my life overwhelming me; the loss of my father, major health problems, no job, friends with their own challenges... it reminded me that we are not alone in our suffering and offers a way through life's tougher times.

Hard to believe through an audio course one can feel a genuine connection with others traveling this tough life, Rueben does it with kindness and such care. Teaching and reminding us that we are here for ourselves in the most precious of ways. I will listen again to this course.
