Thank you so much for this this video. I too am a TBI survivor from a near fatal car accident, and this video solidifies for me the importance of mindful living. Best wishes to you 💞
Exactly, not everybody has that, in fact it was the betrayal and trauma by my husband what brought me to depression and anxiety. I have never felt so desperate and alone in my life.
This is undoubtedly the best and most important You Tube video I’ve ever seen. Thank you Connie for shining a bright light on how to deal with anxiety, anger and fear.
I found my to-be-wife trapped in a crashed car 25 years ago by a chance drive pass in my friends car, she was unconscious and bleeding badly. It was a battle to keep her breathing whilst an ambulance was called. After phoning the hospital later she was in intensive care diagnosed with brain injury and multiple injuries. She recovered despite mental impairment. 12 months later we met after she sent me a thank you letter for helping on that awful night. We went on to get married and have children.
OH MY!! I love this! Thank you so much for sharing your sweet love story with us. I've met so many incredible TBI survivors through this experience. I'm so glad you are part of our mindfulness community. Sending you happiness and peace.
@@ConnieRiet thanks Connie. I knew the moment I met her she was gorgeous and so lovely and kind. Surgeons repaired her facial damage to me she is beautiful and I loved her. Her brain injury meant she couldn’t work anymore or drive a car but that didn’t matter so I was her carer and husband which I enjoyed every minute of it. 4 years ago her previously in remission cancer returned stage 4 terminal we threw everything at to fight it I so so wanted her to live. Sadly my wife passed away 18 months ago and I’m heartbroken 💔
Oh my God Connie, I had no idea! What a journey you've been on in so many ways, physical, mental, emotional, spiritual. I'm so grateful you made it through. You are an inspiration, through and through. 🙏💞
Connie, you are a hero. I am a cancer patient with a rare type that will never leave. I have lived uncertainly for 10 years. Your videos are good, but your Feminine gentle voice and you give out a lot of sincerity. GOD BLESS YOU
Dear Bessie, I'm so glad that my video resonated with you. I'm terribly sorry to hear of your struggle with cancer. You must be incredibly strong, for how else could you endure 10 years. Sending you happiness, peace, and health
"You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you." -- James Allen Thank you for this. I can relate after a year of cancer and the permanent physical challenges it has brought into my life. This is a good reminder of my personal growth.
Beautiful quote! Thank you so much for sharing this quote and your personal story with us. From one survivor to another, I'm glad you are here. Happiness and Peace
Thank you for this. I’ve had countless bouts of deep depression throughout adulthood. I’m really grieving over a certain closed door right now. I’ve been having such a hard, lonely time coming to terms with a reality I didn’t want.
I'm sorry to hear of your struggle with depression. It is a deep pit that can be challenge to climb out of. It is hard to face a reality opposite than the one we had envisioned for ourselves. Sometimes our biggest disappointments, lead us to our most fulfilling experiences. sending you happiness & peace
Connie all the feelings and your emotions I can relate to. When I lost my job this year because of mandates I was devastated. Anger, sadness, loss of the life I had. Like you, I am doing small things each day to get my happiness back. Thank you for your calming channel 💜
Hi Laura, I'm so sorry to hear of your job loss. It can be such a blow to loose a job & identity. I'm glad you are working your back to a place of peace. Sending you happiness & peace my friend.
Thank you for this, Connie. I have survived cancer 3 times and, after a great deal of anger, have come to accept and live with what has happened to me. I have been left disabled by surgery, but I am alive, and I have learned to let go of the anger and enjoy and appreciate my family and the world around me in a new, more intense way.
Thank you for sharing your story with us. With any life altering event, it takes time to let go of "how things should be". I'm happy that you have found peace. Sending you health, happiness & peace
Connie, this is so helpful....thank you so much for sharing some of your life struggle with us. It's nice to listen to someone who is not just trying to tell everyone how to be perfect......because there are daily trials and troubles to deal with that so few are willing to share for the benefit of helping others who struggle. Thank you again so very much.
Yes, the battle is in the mind. And it's a daily battle. I have a back injury (from my life choices), and I can get so mad at myself if I continue to focus on the past. Be thankful to God for the things you have. Don't focus on what you DON"T have, but focus on what you DO have. (Romans 12:2) thanks
Thank you for this video. Five years ago an illness which left me weak also gave me small brain seizures which took some of my memory. I have gotten some of them back, but I am not the same person. It took me years to move through the grief and mindfulness practice helps so much. I am still working through knowing myself and it is difficult some days, having tools and practicing them regularly, even on the “good” days does help. Thank you for this video. You articulated what I went through and still, at times, go through so well.
Connie...you are so wonderful with how you have sorted your injury xxx I have also had three serious health issues...the last one being skin cancer which is almost cleared now...little by little helps...and no positive thoughts xxx thank you for sharingxxx
Watching this video this morning almost brought me to tears. I need to change my thoughts immediately as I find myself in a very sad and dark place. I have been in two very horrific accidents and had brain injuries from both. I still have not recovered from the last one which was 10 years ago now. Your channel gives me hope towards a happier and healthier me ❤️🇨🇦
I've just been diagnosed with breast cancer so this has come at the right time. Thankyou Connie for sharing your incredible story. You are wise beyond words. 🙏
Dear Linda, I'm terribly sorry to hear of your cancer news. I share with my brain injury clients, "our bodies do not heal when we are stressed." During this time of healing, your body needs all the help it can get. Find things that bring you joy, and absorb yourself in them. On my really low days, I watch Andy Griffith Show. It makes me laugh. Sending you happiness, peace, and health.
@@hodahussein9793 May God keep you Hun. I just had radiotherapy due to surgery for the first time and the amount of side effects alone is so uncomfortable I cried all night I couldn't sleep. I can't imagine having to go through it several times on top of chemotherapy. May God strengthen you and heal you and give you quick recovery.
💕 Sending many warm thoughts your way. I'm 12 years out of my breast cancer diagnosis. Take each moment at a time. The journey can be overwhelming which is okay. Give yourself permission to feel all the emotions and lean on your care givers 💕
Hi Connie. Thank you for the talk. I recently attended a talk by rocket sciencist. She talked about a similar strategy which I thought you might not mind hearing. The speaker called it the 3C's: capture, cross-examine & counter-act. It was nice to hear your perspectives on turning a negative situation into a positive one. Thank you & have a good day.
i didn't know you before, but I think you are a beautiful, deep person right now, who is helping so many others. You are so calming and I love that. My cousin told me a few years ago, you have too many apps open and you are in desktop overload. Slow down! I also had a major major operation of having my whole stomach removed due to a cancer and genetic mutation that had killed my beautiful sister and that was such a huge change in my life that I had to get used to my "new normal". I still struggle with anxiety, but watching you, I feel I can get there. Best wishes Connie xxxx Jo xxxx
Sweet Joanne, Thank you so much for sharing you personal journey with us. Life can take us by surprise and turn our worlds upside down. I hope that you are on the road to recovery and feeling stronger everyday. Sending you love & light & health, Connie
I am absolutely in love with the simplicity and connect that your videos have with real life. I feel like I am living them. Will definitely try the 5 min meditation in the morning as it is the time when I am most anxious as I need to make all the preparations to send my daughter to school and also at work when I feel stressed.
Thank you Connie for this, I found your you tube at a point in my life where I needed these reminders of how important it is to take care of ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Your channel is a pure blessing!!- Sheila
Essentially what's being described is cognitive behavioral therapy which has been around for quite a while and is a very well-researched approach for a range of mental health and lifestyle issues. Seems important to give the developers a shout out.
You have taken a tragedy and turned it into a blessing! Wow! You couldn't have done something better! A great lesson for all of us! Thank you! God bless!
Gracias, estoy atravesando momentos de tristeza, todo lo veo mal y no puedo apreciar esos momentos simples y plenos de los que hablas....no soy conciente de ellos y tus palabras me alientan a lo contrario. Gracias!!!!❤
Sometimes I think I have been in denial of my true feelings as I programmed my thoughts to what I thought they should be In a sense, brainwashed or gaslighted myself. Separating thoughts and feelings to find what is true is a tricky thing.
Thank you so much for sharing this, I'm finding all your videos so calming and inspiring on my own personal journey of letting go and spiritual growth 🙏
That was powerful, and I feel you. I've had a similar 'life' before, and I finally realized I'm the gate keeper of my thoughts, and action. Thank you for sharing Connie, wishing you joy, peace, health, and happiness. ❤
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I have tried and failed many times to manage my negative thoughts. Maybe I can finally succeed. I am my chronically ill wife's care giver. I deal with a lot of medical offices, waiting rooms, doctors, nurses, you name it. I need to stop unnecessary negative thoughts because I have many real and present problems to deal with.
Hi Tanya! You are not alone. Negative thoughts seem to creep in everyone's minds. I hope some of these tips help you quiet the chatter in your mind. Sending you happiness & peace
very helpful words you've said I need to say this , You are so pretty and humble , why you are staying alone , you could have cherished life at it most... may almighty bless us all...
Gosh, thank you so much for this video, I am at the moment right now and can see the light, so angry and bitter of the life I wish I had compared to the life I am living.
Very good tips. I will give them a try. I need to change my thought process. I really have not been that happy the past several years. A lot of stress with health issues and loosing my mom Nov. 21, 2021 to Alztheimers. It has really taken a toll on me. My dad passed away in Aug. 2014. But I will give it my best shot! Thanks again. 😊
Thank you Connie for sharing the discoveries you found in recovering from your automobile accident and resulting brain injury and depression. I also suffered a traumatic auto accident and head injury that sent me into a tail spin for years. I've learned some of the same techniques to keep myself keel down and upright. I appreciate learning of the steps that have helped you and many others. I'll share this video with others who've gone through traumatic life events.
Thank you so so much for this video. It came to me, when I needed it the most. My family is dealing with a new reality and I - due to my fragile mind - am finding it extra hard to come to terms with it.
It's true your brain repeat the same thing especially negative. As senior citizen think everything is over. With limited money and single status don't know where to go
Thank you for sharing your story and continued Reflections, advice and uplifting message🥰 I was released from the hospital 4 years ago this week after a life threatening bout of pneumococcal meningitis. I, too have acquired mild brain injuries that have changed me profoundly. Having just found your channel, I am encouraged and looking forward to seeing more of your videos. ❤from 🇨🇦
Happiness is within. For me happiness is when I decide to love and care MySelf. Happiness is when I share something to other like my family. Happiness when I apply detachment from any outcome of what I do. Happiness for me is when I don't expect from others what they can give or offer to me. Happiness is when I am no longer expect from others, being contentment of what I am enjoying now. And when I apply the Art of Letting Go and tolerance and I become happy. When I decide to value life then I started to enjoy life more.I appreciate nature more. I like your sharings and I feel your being calm.
Thank you so much for your description of the way of life that brings you happiness. It is clear that you practice mindfulness in everyday life. The people in your life are truly blessed to have you. Sending you happiness & peace
Connie, you are such a sweet and genuine soul. Thank you for sharing your journey and this wonderful method. May you continue to be abundantly blessed!
I like that title. I am the GATE KEEPER of my thoughts. Then any better feeling thought. Ive been on this same journey though the reason not the same. Im glad I found tis channel. It is reaffirming the road I am on because. I am seeing results ,no matter how small. Best of luck to you. See you on the road to recovery!
Have you ever heard of Byron Katie? Her book "Loving What is" is about working with your stressful thoughts. It's an amazingly simple process of 4 questions and a turnaround and similar to what you are talking about in your video. Love your channel. Thank you for sharing your kind caring way with us.
Amazing. Just have to say hi because I found The Work of Byron Katie 27+ years ago. It was a game changer for me in my early 30's and has remained foundational.
From too many years I m searching for proper mindful living vedioes to implement in my life thank you mam all your tips r helpful.I m ur new subscriber.
Thank you Connie for sharing your story and the mindfulness techniques that helped to heal your brain and bring peace. Your mindfulness techniques are approachable and nurturing. I was already a subscriber to your channel but now I see your previous videos as ways to heal from anxiety and let go negativity. 🎈
I hope that these mindful tips help you find peace, health and joy!
A very meaningful videos ! My heart goes for you and you have given us such wise advice ! Pls make more of such videos .
I am curious, do you live in an apartment or a house at this time in your life? I want to downsize from my house and become minimalistic.

Having the support of a loving husband is such a blessing ❤️
Exactly, not everybody has that, in fact it was the betrayal and trauma by my husband what brought me to depression and anxiety. I have never felt so desperate and alone in my life.
I had a car accident and sustained a brain injury March 7th, 2008. I have not had someone describe how I felt and can still feel. Thank you.
This is undoubtedly the best and most important You Tube video I’ve ever seen. Thank you Connie for shining a bright light on how to deal with anxiety, anger and fear.

It is reaffirming the road I am on because. I am seeing results ,no matter how small. Best of luck to you. See you on the road to recovery!
Thank you! I agree, small steps in the right direction is still progress.
Sending you happiness & peace
Have you ever heard of Byron Katie? Her book "Loving What is" is about working with your stressful thoughts. It's an amazingly simple process of 4 questions and a turnaround and similar to what you are talking about in your video. Love your channel. Thank you for sharing your kind caring way with us.
Amazing. Just have to say hi because I found The Work of Byron Katie 27+ years ago. It was a game changer for me in my early 30's and has remained foundational.
