Motivational Whisperers

Zap your food cravings with EFT!  EFT dissolves blocked energy that results from an upsetting event, thereby changing the powerful negative emotions that cause you to eat out of emotion rather than hunger. 

"Tapping each day keeps the binges away!" 

Why EFT Works to Conquer Emotional Eating:

·       Food craving can be dissolved immediately (yes, even chocolate!).

·       Reduces stress from everyday issues that may cause you to turn to food to soothe anxious feelings.

·       Begins to erode negative beliefs and self fulfilling expectations about food and body image.

·       Eliminates subconcious need to keep excess weight- as a barrier or cushion.

·       Helps identify your personal  "triggers" for emotional eating.

·       Neutralizes the emotional effects of difficult or traumatic events from your past.

You are being VULNERABLE...

When you ask for what you want...
When you speak your truth...
When you step out of your comfort zone...



Many of us growing up were ridiculed and judged growing up when we revealed our true selves; it wasn't safe for many of us to be vulnerable.  Many of us developed a "protective shielding."  We learned  how to always appear together and never give "them"  substantive evidence to  "attack" us with.

 That same protective shielding that was so useful when we were little can cause isolation and loneliness now.  It is necessary now as adults to be open and reveal our truths if we want to conquer isolation and lonliness.   

 

There must be some vulnberability present to form deep connections.   
Sometimes inner selves are only revealed with an eruption and explosion in anger or pain.  Do not wait to hit bottom.  You always have choices.  Connect with others.  Be vulnerable.  You can create a shield with filters so that you can

 

·       Share who you really are and create authentic relationships.

·       Be vulnerable from a place of power.

·       Be resilient, and feel the love!

 

Authentic self-expression allows us to share fears and flaws without shame.

 

 

 

Need help forming protective filters?

 

Need help getting grounded in your Personal Power?

 

    -handling rejection and judgements??

    -balancing privacy and transparancy??

 

Do you know that EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) combined with Peak Performance Success Coaching can help with all of these challenges?

The Zen Way of Life can be used for business with Mind Blowing Results.

 

 

It’s the getting started – the first small step that often  seems insurmountable.  Getting  started  can be tough.   The good news is that when you do get started, things can roll along!  There may be a few bumps in the road on the way to your goal, and that’s why it’s important not to take that personally (be obective as possible), detached from outcome (in the Zen tradition) and stay positive.  

 If you find yourself on the couch, perhaps the first small step is rolling over onto the floor – and if you have a pet getting some love there… smiling, laughing and feeling gratitude about whomever and  whatever is happening well in your life.

 It’s really important to be certain that a goal is something you really want- not just something that sounds good.  Take all aspects of a situation into consideration, this helps to prevent  self-sabotage.  Having a realistic goal with a realistic time frame is important within a bigger picture.  These are the “R” and “T” in SMART  Goals.

Specific  The goal should identify a specific action or event  that will take place.

Measurable  The goal and its benefits should be quantifiable.

Achievable  The goal should be attainable given available resources.

Realistic  The goal should require you to stretch some and point towards success.

Timely  The goal should state the time period in which it will be accomplished

 
Write your goal in positive language.  The more positive instructions you give yourself, the more positive results you get!

 Here are a few more strategies for goal manifestation:

 

•   Review and re-prioritize your goals frequently.
•   Throughout the day ask yourself  “does this take me closer or      further from my goals(s)?”
•  Give yourself permission to change your mind.
•   Pay attention to your body, feelings, thoughts and intuitive self!   
     
   EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) can help remove blocks, release frustrations and negative energy and set you into positive action.

1.Each day have a special  "worry time" set aside to address  issues that may be "worrisome"  that you list the eve before




Worrying takes an enormous amount of time and energy and stats show that a tiny percentage of what we considier worrisome never happens. 

2. Let go of  perfectionism, take action and manifest!

Give yourself permission to take action and begin a project beforte all the "kinks" are straightened out, as long as you are following a "strategic" plan.

3.  Examine anything you are procrastinating about to see if it's worthwhile to pursue.

If it is and you need to get past a few blocks, learn EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques)   a sure procrastination eradicator!    

4. Listen to your intuition.

Always!  Pay attention to your physical and emotional cues!

5.  Be a great listener!

Listening well has a few great benefits: Listen well and your response will be more on target.

6.  You always have a choice!

Give yourself a few minutes in the morning to visualize success.
Before "popping" out of bed, visualize your day happening including what you are wearing and how conversations unfold.  If it is not a happy-productive scenario, when possible eliminate it.  

7. Take frequent breaks 

Throughout the day, leave the scene of work.  Go outside if possible, stretch and walk.

8.  Be grateful!  

It's been going around that this is the only way to be if you want to have peace of mind.  To further gratefulness along, write three things/people you are grateful for each day, adding to the list you have created.  When you walk, you can use these as a "mantra".  Post them on post-its on your mirror and on the car dashboard.  Witness the magic happen :).

9. Take time each day to relax and dream. 

Practice yoga and/or meditation or simply do some relaxation breathing in a peaceful spot.

10.  Surround yourself with positive people.

 1. Take baby steps toward your fear. You don't need to go on a parachute or  to the edge of The grand Canyon the first day--just go on top of a small hill (or a glass elevator) and look down. You don't need to write the entire book this weekend--just take some time to make an outline.

2.  Learn tools or processes that can help you dissolve your fear. There are many "shortcuts" out there-techniques that are effective at dissipating the fear on a deep level. One of my favorites is EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), also known as Tapping-see how to do that here:

 

• Here's a global fears top ten: 
  1. Fear of public speaking (Glossophobia)
  2. Fear of death (Necrophobia)
  3. Fear of spiders (Arachnophobia)
  4. Fear of darkness (Achluophobia)
  5. Fear of heights (Acrophobia)
  6. Fear of people or social situations (Sociophobia)
  7. Fear of flying (Aerophobia)
  8. Fear of open spaces (Agoraphobia)
  9. Fear of thunder and lightning (Brontophobia)
  10. Fear of confined spaces (Claustrophobia

Typically, EFT is facilitated with a practitioner for several sessions, while the individual is tapping on their own every day. EFT is especially effective when integrated with peak performance success coaching.  

Clients are successfully guided to release fear and completely reverse phobias after only few sessions!

3. Make a commitment to yourself to keep moving toward that fear until you're on the other side.   Find a buddy and/or a coach to help support you. Tell your buddy what your commitment is and ask him or her to stick by you through your process.

 The good news is that research has been documenting that anyone who has a strong intention to change a habit or create a new behavioral pattern can do it (short of big physiological challenges such as addictions). 


It takes at least 21 days of repetition with no backslide.  If one backslides, then starting from day one is indicated.

 So with the above as a premise then coaching becomes even more positive for the coachee!  This is what happens:

• When someone contacts me for a consult for stress-anger management coaching and sounds motivated (vs. depressed; keep in mind I'm talking about coaching, not therapy) then I am happy to share this research and they are happy get started. 

• Each aha, each positive action becomes part of the bigger success plan.

• The accountability is both to themselves and to me.  The progress begins with the first conversation when there is motivation involved.

• When the goals have been reached, the coachee is encouraged too indulge in healthy celebration!

 

 

• Stay in communication for open ended follow up.

Do you know about Aura Sheilding with Light & Love Emittance?
This is always a powerful practice to set up for yourself, especially while traveling, which I've been doing a lot of recently.  This is the how and what:

• Center and ground yourself in a quiet place without distractions.   I find "The Mountain Meditation" via Dr. Jon Kabat Zinn, "Wherever You Go, There You Are" to be excellent for this purpose: 
  http://www.amazon.com/Wherever-You-There-Are-Mindfulness/dp/1562827693  
• Visualize a white - lavender aura surrounding your body reaching out at least as far around and up as arm's distance.
• Visualize a stream of light entering your aura from Source above and streaming down into the Earth. 

• Affirm your energetic shield of protection is with you wherever you go and that you have the ability to renew it whever you choose.
• Affirm your power to send light-love to whomever comes your way.
• Keep smiling and enjoy!

We carry within us everything we need to know to make progress on our paths to self-realization. You are the one: The outer world serves as a mirror. All we need to do to see that we already have everything we need is to let go of our belief that we need to seek in order to find. 

 Most of us know that getting what we want only makes us happy for a moment... We do not have to travel to find it or imagine that it resides only in the body of another. In fact, what the best teachers will do is point out that this very precious elixir is something we already possess.

We can turn to ourselves when  we find ourselves on our path, not knowing which way to turn and wishing for guidance.   When we simply ask, let go, and wait patiently, an answer will come.


The more we practice this and trust this process, the less we will look outside ourselves for teachers and guides for we will have successfully become our own.  Trusting yourself, trusting your intuition paves the way for a life of fearlessness and success.

EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) is a magnificant tool to overcome fear about almost anything including fear of self trust which is often veiled as fear of trusting another (the mirror effect) , perhaps fear of intimacy.

I am very intuitive as are many of you reading this article.  When I experience the "chills-tingles" and a feeling that rings true I know it's my intuition- or that something is true...no matter what. 




Today a coaching client revealed to me in the first  three minutes that she is "very intuitive" was wondering if her feelings and actions were perhaps fear based; was it fear or intuition that was leading her to feel "compelled" to take some actions that she was not happy about, that she was seeing me today to gain greater insight into and understand if it was fear or intuition that was leading her.

 This evening, no coincidence that nothing was "on demand" TV  that I was interested in, so I picked up a professional journal that was on my coffee table all week - "Choice the magazine of professional coaching" ; this issue focusing on "Intuition & Coaching".  One of the many interesting articles written by colleagues pertains to the fear or intuition question.
 

 Now, back to my client.  After discussing her issues and challenges, we decided to "tap" (EFT- Emotional Freedom Techniques) on the issue of feeling compelled to do something that she admittedly felt shame  about - that was clearly giving her anxiety attacks. 


When we began, her feeling of distress about this was 10 on a scale of 1-10.  After several rounds of tapping she was down to 5, and saying she was feeling more at ease, relaxed.

In the process, a few core issues revealed themselves - revelations to her and more material for us to work on in 2012.  In the process, I also gave her three medical referrals to holistic doctors.  I used my intuition in facilitating EFT and it guided all my statements and questions, which gave me a greater insight into what my client truly needed.  


This of course gave my client a deeper level of understanding and clarity as well, because I  tuned into her through my intuition and not the analytical side of my brain. 

 

Intuition is always the winner - follow your gut - no matter what - trust yourself,  honor your true feelings (emotional and physical) and act on them.
