Do You Think Too Much?


Thinking too much is like being a gourmet chef in your brain only you keep cooking the same dishes over and over!  

 Stop depleting your mind by continuously dwelling on questions you haven't answered. Let go of your RATIONAL mind and make room for relief and relaxation by accepting the unknown. Give yourself permission NOT to know. . . not forever, but for now. 

 The benefits of getting out of your head far outweigh your hope of getting something under control by thinking about it.

 Here are six questions you can ask to bring relief and relaxation to your unproductive mental state: 
(Otherwise known as THINKING TOO MUCH)
1.  Am I feeling into this, or am I trying to figure it out?

2.  Is my focus on thinking this through, or can I focus on going with the flow?

3.  Am I fully present right now?

4.  What's possible if I LET GO in this moment? 

5.  Does this (thought or behavior) come from my heart, or does this come from my head?

6.  Is this an opportunity for me to "stop thinking too much?"



And here's your bonus question, take this one to your journal:
What's possible if I think less, and FEEL MORE in this situation? 

 Enjoy becoming unplugged from your head. 
Plug into your heart as often as you can. 

 Release whatever fear or resistance you hold in order to stay in the comfort zone of your analytical mind. After all, you are a gourmet chef with amazing tastes, combinations, sensations and new ideas to cook up!

Dark Days to Major Blessings: Make the Most of the Holidays.

Image
The holiday season has officially begun with Happy Hanukkah yesterday, and even though we are technically still in the last several days of autumn, it feels like we've already entered into Winter with the days getting shorter and darker.  Winter Solstice is December 20th, then Christmas then New Year's! Do you add any personal or family holidays to that list?  ​​​​Now we have a new opportunity to embrace the darkness.   While the holiday buzz fills our lives, we are still settling into the darkness even if we try to deny it or frantically move through it. We are flowing with nature regardless. . . so why not invoke this organic part of our nature?  The winter-holiday-darkness-time is truly a season of major blessings - available only if you let yourself lean into it with an open heart. (Rather than getting caught up in the year-end rush of "everything", or even getting caught up in negative judgements of too-cold, or too-dark, or commercialism, or family

Summer Your Dreams!

Image
What is your favorite way to make the most of summertime?  Each season brings unique opportunities for our personal growth.  Winter might bring you deeper inside yourself, as you take time to slow down, stay warm, and reflect in the shorter days. Spring and Summer might bring your soul toward outward expression, seeing more of who you are in action or in response to light and energy and warmth. Summer has a feeling of "time off".  Winter has a feeling of "hunkering down".   How you embrace or resist parts of each season is a reflection of how you embrace or resist other key areas of your life. There is much to learn about yourself through raising awareness in the different seasonal energies.  How will you fully express your SUMMER?  Everything is fresh in summertime. Food is fresh, living is easier or cleaner or simpler. Sunshine is abundant and activates the playful side. Summertime can be an intermission for the whole year - a time for a break or refreshm

What's Great about Coaching Sessions?

Image
I am asked a lot, “What happens in a coaching session? Why would someone work with a life coach? Should I sign up for a coaching session? What kind of people need a coach? Sometimes people assume a person would be “broken” or “messed up” somehow, leading them to work with a coach.    It’s actually the opposite of those negative concerns. Coaching takes you to your next level.   Maybe you want a career change. Maybe you want a new perspective. Maybe you want better communication in any relationship. Maybe you want to hit the “reset button” in a situation. Maybe you just need a boost in some area of your life/work. These are great reasons for a coaching session.  I have studied and learned through multiple trainings how to move you forward and take you into a greater version of yourself.   A coaching session is designed for  you to understand and apply whatever is needed to fulfill your desires.  Why do coaches offer a single session at no charge?    Over the years,
