SELF-HEALING is so important in our lives.  Knowing our BLOOD TYPE and how it pertains to our wholeness and well-being is also important in the healing process.  One of the most popular episodes so far is "Eat Right for Your Blood Type" inspired by the book of the same name written by Dr. D&apos;Adamo.  So, I decided to create this episode diving deeper into the meaning and importance of our blood types and how eating specifically for our specific blood type can benefit our health and healing.I hope that this information will inspire you to implement some of Dr. D&apos;Adamo&apos;s suggestions and that you can provide yourself with SELF-HEALING and enjoy the many TREASURES of LIFE!!*Disclaimer:  I am not a medical professional.  I share from my own knowledge and experiences.  Please seek advice from your medical professional prior to implementing.Peace, Love, and Joy,Michelle DurandHostesshttps://lifeisatreasure.comSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/lifeisatreasurepodcast)

This episode was inspired by Viktor Frankl&apos;s quotes:  "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.""Everything can be taken from a man but one thing:  the last of the human FREEDOMS - to choose one&apos;s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one&apos;s own way.""Between stimulus and response, there is a space.  In that space is our power to choose our response.  In our response lies our growth and our FREEDOM."I go deeper into my thoughts regarding these quotes and how they can change our lives!I also mention the importance of Self-Forgiveness and that episode is:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/life-is-a-treasure/id1474535076?i=1000466923426I hope you will find the TREASURES to help you grow through LIFE&apos;S situations and FREEDOM from the past, for the present, and in the future.   Thank you for listening, subscribing, and sharing!Peace, Love, and FREEDOM,Michelle DurandHostess and Life CoachSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/lifeisatreasurepodcast)

FREEDOM from the Past

In honor of Father&apos;s Day, I wanted to take this time to share how fathers are impacted at times of pregnancy termination or loss.  Fathers have feelings too.  However, too often they are forgotten about because of how society expects them to toughen up, suck it up, and be a "man".  I know personally how difficult the complex emotions can burden men also.  The goal of this special episode is to let men know that they are not alone and that there is help and healing available to them also.  The lyrics that I shared from Shelly E. Johnson are linked here:  https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=390005538212511Please share this episode with anyone you know who may be silently struggling.  Also, please share with me the name(s) of your unborn babies and how you decided to honor them.  Happy Father&apos;s Day,Michelle Durandhttps://tearstotreasures.comhttps://lifeisatreasure.comSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/lifeisatreasurepodcast)

Blood Type A Eating Plan/Diet

In life, sometimes the things that cause us the most pain are filled with shame attached to them.  Shame keeps us suffering in silence making us feel alone which can lead to depression.  I lived decades in that situation until I realized that I really wanted to heal which meant dealing with the shame, pain, guilt, and all of the other complex emotions that follow the loss, trauma, or transition of any type.  Whether you have been through or in the midst of those feelings from situations in your life, this episode will help you to not feel alone, to feel understood, and offers hope that you too can find true healing from any loss or pain that you&apos;re dealing with in your own life.I also have an exciting announcement!!  I am launching an ebook (digital book) that you can purchase, download, and work with at your own pace in the privacy of your own space.  I will be taking you through the grief and healing process and sharing stories as examples from my own life to help you implement the things that you learn in the book.  If you would like to the first to find out when it launches, please email me at lifeisatreasurepodcast@gmail.com and I will add you to the ebook launch list.Thank you for listening, subscribing, and sharing this episode!Living HOPE,Michelle DurandHostesshttps://lifeisatreasure.comSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/lifeisatreasurepodcast)

How to Deal with Emotionally Unavailable People

Have you ever found that you lost yourself from a relationship, divorce, or loss of any type?Sometimes in life, we neglect our own wants and needs in order to love and serve others.  We place their needs, wants, and feelings in priority over our own.  Most of the time, we do this as an expression of our love.  However, over time we can lose ourselves.  We then realize that we don&apos;t even know WHO we are anymore, what our role is, and our purpose in life.I have experienced this many times in my life, but mostly after my divorce of a 15-year marriage with 2 children.  In this episode, I will be sharing my story along with practical tips and tools to help YOU discover yourself again after divorce or loss of any type.I hope that this episode will inspire you with information for you to implement in order to create changes that create a LIFE YOU TREASURE!  Please reach out to me and let me know what part of the episode helped you the most and why.  I can&apos;t wait to hear from YOU!You are worthy,Michelle DurandHostess https://lifeisatreasure.comSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/lifeisatreasurepodcast)
