An On The Mindfulness Tip Replay

A look inward to mental habits we may have developed that do not serve us along with tips to transmute them to useful and positive Energy.
Welcome to Episode 81 of Roll With Peace, In Mind. Today's riff is On The Mindfulness Tip Replay and is a mindful mix of two previous episodes: Awakening Awareness episode 5, and Observer or Visionary? episode 54. Within these episodes are keys to becoming a more Conscious Co-Creator in your Life Journey.

1) happy
2) worried
3) afraid of ___
4) depressed
5) hopeful
6) frustrated
7) joyful
8) angry
9) preoccupied with…STUFF
10) optimistic
11) pessimistic
12) discontented
13) uneasy or 14) plain ol’ unhappy
AND, as I ask during the podcast,
What do YOU think comes first, the thought or the emotion? Let that marinate for a minute. Please chime in with comments on my Facebook page Jacquie Bird, Spiritual Wellness using the hashtag #WhatComesFirstTheThoughtOrEmotion

Spotlight On: Bill Easley, Musician

"...The key to everything is Gratitude..." "Feeling Good is a full time job..." 
The spotlight is on Bill Easley. Bill Easley has had a diversified career as a professional musician. He joined the musicians union, Local 115 in 1959. 2022 marks the 63rd year of his professional career. Bill represents the fourth generation of a family dedicated to music.
After military service Easley joined The George Benson Quartet in January of 1968 and traveled with the great guitarists for the remainder of the decade. This band worked in legendary jazz spots including Minton's Playhouse in New York, The Plugged Nickel in Chicago, The Jazz Workshop in Boston, and The Hurricane in Pittsburgh.
Following a brief residence in Pittsburgh, PA, the internal voice (instinct) led him to Memphis, Tennessee. In Memphis he did a variety of things including: performing and recording with Isaac Hayes, other studio work, big bands, show bands, and jazz clubs. He also continued his formal education at Memphis State University. It was in the mid 1970’s that Easley first toured with the Duke Ellington Orchestra under the direction of Mercer Ellington. In January of 1980, Bill moved back to New York City with the promise of a job on Broadway.
