Know What Questions to Ask Before You Give Out Your Contact Information

By Lorna Blake - Assertiveness Training Coach
That was a phenomenal show with relationship expert Maryanne Comaroto! She discussed how one of her students was flirting with a client for a year before she(the student) decided to ask him out on a date. It was at this point he then told her that he was married. According to Maryanne: "People will tell you anything to get you into bed..." So before you get to that point, before you even give out your contact information let's ask the critical questions. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this show.

Are you nurturing your dreams?

By Lorna Blake - Assertiveness Training Coach
The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.

Many in Search of Anxiety Help!

By Carol Adams - Certified Hypnotist and Instructor

There are so many of us in search of anxiety help. Our lives are very complicated and multi - tasking is the norm, as opposed to, being exceptional.
Perhaps you are a career mom seeking anxiety help. Or a single dad  calling for anxiety help. You may even be a teen in need of assistance. Whoever you are, wherever you may be, you are not alone. Help is available in many forms and all you need to do is reach out. 

What are you to do?

Everything , yes, I suggest everything until you find something that works for you. As a Hypnotist I naturally suggest Hypnosis. However, Hypnosis is only one modality. Yoga has proven helpful for some and so has meditation. There are those among us that may find relief in Massage, Life Coaching , Excercise, Spiritual Guides, Light Therapy or Aromatherapy.
 I urge you to investigate every modality available to you until one feels right. Regardless of what you would like to do, be, or have, peace of mind is essential! It all begins with peace of mind. Anxiety cannot exist in the atmosphere of peace. If you are in need I  invite you to contact me for a consultation on Hypnosis for Anxiety Help.

May PEACE be with YOU !

Epiphany and Follow Through

By Stephanie Riseley - Hypnotherapy Author

Epiphany and Follow Though

I ask clients to commit to five sessions to begin with, because one session doesn’t produce much change.  It seems unrealistic to think that 70 years of anger and pain could be released in a few sessions – but yesterday, that’s exactly what happened! 

I have a 70 year old client, male, Sammy, who came to see me three weeks ago because of severe depression, roiling anger and an inability to enjoy his life and a new lover.  His 90 year-old mother had recently died, and he’s working at a $10 an hour job that barely supports him. 

This after a lifetime of fast red cars, Orange County opulent track-manor materialism, combined with 30 years on Prozac and all the other psychiatric drugs prescribed to dull his psychic pain.  When his wife killed herself two years ago, he knew he’d hit the end of that road.  After realizing how his old buried anger was hi-jacking his brain (amygdala hi-jacking it’s called) and was keeping him “looping” onto old miseries, he was ready to do the “brain exercises” to release it. 

Because he worked hard, began to listen to his own thinking, he had a major epiphany.  As he waited impatiently in his car at a stop sign, while a 400 pound man hobbled in across the street, he thought, “Why doesn’t he just let go of all that blubber?”  Not very compassionate, to say the least, but because he was finally “paying attention” to his own thoughts, he got hit with an epiphany about his own “400 pounds of blubber.” 

It hit him like a lightening bolt, “Why do I want to carry 400 pounds of my blubbery-misery-invested-past in my brain?  Why do I keep diving into it, and swimming in it everyday?  I’m ready to let it go!”  And he showed up at my office, a changed man – ready to own his power again.  He told me a funny story that foreshadowed his entire life, if you believe in “magical realism.”  When he was nine, he was at a farm in the Midwest that had an outhouse.  Being a curious boy, he took a big brick, looked down into the stinking hole, and then threw that brick down there.  Guess what happened?  Yes!  You got it!  He got splattered – completely covered in poop.  And as he told me the story, he laughed.  Because he realized that all he’d been doing since then, is looking down the poop hole, throwing brinks down and getting covered in poop.  I asked if he was ready to stop throwing those bricks, and yes!  He’s ready. 

So today, just take a look at your thoughts, and stop throwing bricks down the pooper.  Instead, look up at the blue sky, enjoy the scent of flowers, grass – focus away from the pain of your past, and embrace the freedom of choice in the NOW. 

The choice is yours, however to do it, or not… and that’s what creativity really is all about.  Knowing that your own thoughts are creating your own experience, yes?  I’m off to walk now, move this body and enjoy the day!

Please Stumble- Ready for Change?

By Eileen Lichtenstein - Peak Performance Success Coach

Change is happening at such an increased rate that it is difficult to predict what the future holds.  The “rules” are in constant flux and many of the old ways of planning out a life or business are no longer applicable. We often cling to them, the “old” comfort zones- and find they are no longer comfortable!  We may question ideas that just a few years ago seemed sensible.. and sometimes find ourselves “stuck”, unable to take action, and unhappy.

 

It’s time to embrace change and release-let go of processes and plans that no longer serve us.  Sometimes the life we planned no longer fits as we evolve and change.

 

If you or someone you care about needs help figuring this out, creating focus and setting new goals and someone to brainstorm with  or someone to be an advocate, you can contact me for a 30 minute FREE coaching consultation: eileen@balanceandpower.com , 516 623 4353.
