Do you look after yourself or your loved ones when it is a sniffle?

I know for myself, I have learned by experience, to treat the minor symptoms by putting on a jumper when I am cold.

When I have a tickle in my throat, out comes the 'Tiger Balm' (a remedy from Singapore) which I rub on my chest and throat, to clear the symptoms and stop it going further!

Occasionally, I do succumb to the flu! This is a way that my body detoxifies. It is also a message to stop! Rest and just 'be'!

It is so much easier to look after the sniffle at 1 on the scale, than to deal with the consequences of the flu at 10!

Often at 10, it means time off work and being a single Mum like I am, my daughter might miss school?

Although at 9yrs old, with a few instructions, I am sure she would be able to make a phone call to organize a lift to the bus stop!

This scale applies to everything in our lives money, intimacy, work, family, friends and life style!

It is so much harder to stop the 'raging bull' at a scale of 10 than it is to tame the' bull calf', at a scale of 1!

I am reminding you to recognize where you are on the scale?

I would love you to rate yourself now, between 1 - 10 as to where you feel you are in the following areas:

Personal Health - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Fitness - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Flexibility - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Purpose - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Spiritual growth - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Projects - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Creativity - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Family - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Relationships - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Intimacy - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Love - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Reputation - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Abundance - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Wealth - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10


No matter where you are on the scale, by bringing awareness to it, the healing process has begun.
I also love to ask for help?

This forum is the perfect opportunity, to do exactly that?

"Ask and you shall receive". The hardest part, is taking the action to do this?

It is so much easier to fix a 3,4,5 or 6 on the scale!

By writing a few words on the pages here, there are many lovely women to assist in any way they feel they are able?

Since I began writing, just 4 months ago, I have made new friends and seen many women improve their personal situations.

Many women start by talking about their family life and their pets!

I would start small, at 1 on the scale and once I have courage, I too may make it to 10.

Just as Anne Johnson, from 'The Bold and Classy Women's community has. I am so enjoying her success!

Congratulations to Anne and thank you for the major contribution that I have enjoyed receiving from you, as a part of this community! Well done!

So Ladies, it is about making a conscious choice to change?

I look forward to watching many of you grow and I encourage each and every one of you to keep an eye on those scales!

What is important to you?

How may I help?

Have you noticed that you may open the mail and then start yelling at your kids? Especially if it was a bill or your credit card statement! You may see a car accident on the news and it takes you back to that near miss in your teenage driving years or the actual accident you had! You now have a pain in your neck!

You have a test coming up and you break out in hives? You visit a friend in hospital and almost end up becoming a patient yourself, nearly fainting!

A friend leaves your area and you break out in eczema? As you suffer emotional loss! That has happened to my daughter this weekend, as a girl she became close to at school, returns home, after some time with her grandmother!

If you can find the trigger? You are so much closer to fixing the underlying cause.

Start to take notice of your emotions, it may be that frustrated ugh..... noise that you hear yourself make? Why are you frustrated?

As soon as I hear my daughter making this noise, I ask what I can do to help her? By taking action immediately, the frustration goes!

So if you trigger when you open the mail? Do it at a time when you are calm and ready for it. Not when you are going to react badly and hurt others!

Awareness heals! Help yourself to become 'emotionally intelligent' and live a happier, healthier life!

Your mind cannot tell the difference between what is real and what is imagined! When it comes to files and memories you need to know that a good majority of your subconscious mind, patterns, programs and memories are not really yours, you didn't choose them. Most of them happened around you as a child, at school and to other people that are around you at the time. Consider what your parents' perceptions and attitudes are, for example in relation to money or sex. What would have been your perception as a child?

Your mind cannot distinguish between what is real and what is imagined, otherwise war movies would not give that adrenaline rush.

Here is an example: Think of a Lemon - Body produces saliva and gets ready for lemon juice - but there is no lemon coming.

Keep thinking of a lemon and the body produces: ulcers, stomach pain and or digestive complaints all due to stomach imbalance.

Should I take a pill for the stomach imbalance or should I stop thinking about the (metaphoric) lemon?

The lemon is a metaphor and unless you learn 'Emotional Intelligence' it is not that easy so, we have "no choice" but to take the pill and hope the lemon goes away.

That lemon could be thinking, imagining, fearing or seeing:
Conflicts or Achievements
Money Stress
All sorts of major problems
Parenting
Intimacy
Public Speaking
Asking for money
Working in general
Driving
Cooking
Living with someone
Parents

All have individual BODY REACTIONS leading to illness and imbalance. Start becoming aware of the perceptions you are taking in and building. Get conscious of these before jumping too quickly to drugs for the solution.

"Rather than hope these lemons change or go away we need to take responsibility, work through, remove or walk around these lemons".

Peter O'Neill

As my 'emotional intelligence' mentor Peter has taught me how to recognize and remove the lemons in my life!

I am happy to assist you to bring awareness to where lemons are affecting you and your life!

Doubt! Do you doubt yourself? Do you have doubt about products? Or perhaps you doubt others? Have you ever had a great idea then had it squashed by someone and the instant they do, you doubt yourself? It is not a matter of if we run the doubt sabotage, it is about where we do, how often and how deep it goes? We all doubt, but when we have trained our mind it turns into healthy caution, intuition and awareness. For most of us though doubt is faster than the speed of light and we run various programs depending on what it is we are doing?

Do you doubt that other people will be able to do things as well as you? Do you run the perfection program and doubt that you will ever be happy? It all depends on the subject matter or 'life zone' that you focus on. For example, what doubts do you have about money? Where do you doubt yourself in your marriage? Where do you doubt your boss?

Doubt is a sabotage that stops you from even starting to achieve your goals. Life is supposed to be a challenge; no soul would buy the game of life if you could easily conquer it in a few years and doubt is the first of its obstacles. Become aware of doubt in its many subtle forms and you find lack of belief and a slim chance of success. Doubt may well be there for life so learn how to live with it, how to conquer it and how to not let it suck you in and take you off your yellow brick road of life.

Notice when you doubt and become the master of it!

Awareness heals!

I have always maintained a certain level of fitness! When I made a decision to become a Mum at 40, part of that reasoning was that it would give me the incentive to keep myself fit & flexible!

Yes I have accomplished that & yoga has been the major contribution to this!

Now that my daughter is 9 & I have more freedom & she has been parented well. I know that I can take her to places where I know the environment is safe!

She has also learned through her own experiences, with children of her own age or older that she can have a voice! We also learn through role playing, as things arise!

I felt it was time to do something for myself & my gym membership started 7 May 10!

I have been there 5 times since, I have enjoyed 3 different classes, Pilate's, Fatburner and Pump! Each of which has been 45 mins of wonderful exercise!

My daughter enjoyed a martial arts class today & there is a safe area that she can relax in and do homework while I get fitter!

What I have noticed the most, is the improvement in my own personal self esteem!

I would encourage any of you, especially if you are approaching 50 to consider this?

I feel a new lease in life, contact me if you need some extra encouragement!

I am not here to kick your butt, I will certainly give you the incentive you need to live a happy, healthy life, like I do!

Promise Yourself

To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.

To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.

To make all your friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them.

To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.

To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best.

To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.

To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature you meet.

To give so much time to improving yourself that you have no time to criticize others.

To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud word, but in great deeds.

To live in the faith that the whole world is on your side, so long as you are true to the best that is in you.

I heard this today & decided to share it with you all!

Have a lovely day

Quit - Do you quit on yourself, on others, on ideas, projects, dreams and goals?

How quickly do you quit? A day, perhaps a month or do you quit on your relationship at 2yrs?

Once awareness of this quitting sabotage is evident, we are able to focus!

We notice and then we relax a little and look at why we quit?

Was there an obstacle in our way? Was it doubt or a negative story that we were running?

Was it a physical pain or even worse an emotional pain?

So how do we breakthrough this?

By consciously being aware of the quit program. By asking ourselves "Am I quitting?"

By pushing through and manifesting my goals.

It may take patience and having faith in others!

When you fall over, get up again. When you make a decision, follow through and see how long you can go with out quitting?

If you feel the need to quit, then quit on your past and all those could have been's! On resentment and regrets.

By being aware of the 'quit sabotage' we will loose that weight, improve our health, enjoy our relationships and bring in prosperity!

Stop the quit sabotage today!

How may I help you?
