114. The Power of Words

The Mindful Healers Podcast with Dr. Jessie Mahoney and Dr. Ni-Cheng Liang

The words we choose matter.

What if we modeled healthy, intentionally healing, and loving language in hospitals and medical environments?

What words would healing use? What if we opted out of language that creates fear, scarcity, and wartime energy in medical settings? What if we began using words that embody positive, hopeful, helpful, and healing energy? Choosing words with intention is a powerful tool.

The default words you use with regularity in all parts of your life also matter.

When someone asks how you are or how your day was, how do you answer? Fine, ok, exhausted?

We tend to choose negative, humble, dull, minimizing words rather than colorful fun words.

What if you chose to be more than fine and more than ok? What if you were fabulous, wonderful, or extraordinary? What if you chose to have fun with language and words? And what if you string words together into sentences and stories with intention? In this episode, we invite you to craft a narrative of your life that you love. Make yourself the hero. Tell an empowered story.

Today’s episode is strong encouragement to use words, sentences, stories, and language with mindful intention.

When you tell the version of your life you want to be living, you just might start living it.
