I was recently on a vacation with my husband to Southeast Asia, which is a new and different place than we’d ever visited before. We explored the regions of Singapore and Indonesia. It was a learning experience of different cultures as well as with very different climate conditions than we’re used to. When we left the Pacific Northwest, it was cool springtime weather here, and when we landed in Singapore, it was hot and humid! A bit of a shock to our bodies, to say the least! So, we were thrust into summertime weather immediately.…
In our pursuit of happiness, one of the key components lies in our willingness to embrace growth and learning. As a Hypnotherapist Mind Coach, I’ve observed the transformative power with my clients that comes from them staying open to new experiences, learning about the mind and how they can make the changes they desire. Let’s explore how this mindset of continuous growth can shape our journey towards greater happiness. The Path to Happiness: Staying Open Happiness isn’t a destination; it’s a journey—one that is enriched by our openness to learning and growth. When we maintain…
I recently was reading an article about values, what they are, how we acquire them and how they may change over time, too. (Stay tuned for this great topic in a future article.) It got me thinking what my values are. It’s not always an easy assessment, but when we look at what’s important to us, where we put our priorities, we can start to discern what those values are. I realized one of my values is personal growth and learning. From the time I was a teenager, I was curious about our connection to…
Here’s a simple exercise you can do for yourself to bring more expansion, joy and love into your heart. Take 10 minutes-longer if you choose. Ask yourself: What am I most grateful for the year behind me? Write down whatever pops into your mind. I highly suggest you write it down-it will imprint onto your subconscious mind at a deeper level. Now, ask: What am I most grateful for about myself? Again, write it down. Could be your kindness you expressed to someone…or just in general…how you are a kind person. Could be your wisdom,…
I hope your holidays were a time that was meaningful to you. Even though we may not all celebrate the same holidays or find them challenging for a variety of reasons, they do mark a time when we’re conscious that it is the last month of the year. And, so I’d like to share something with you that is significant as we come to the end of this year, 2023. A few weeks ago, when I attended a Tapping Solution event on “Reflect, Learn & Renew: Closing the Year with Insight and Growth” with Jessica…
In a previous blogpost, I wrote how I was finding myself out of balance even though I was suppose to be in summertime mode. By the way, I did take my own recommendations on Life Balance, (smiles), and did find more balance as summer moved along. I hope the articles on Life Balance supported you in finding more balance as well. It’s time for a Refresh! Well, here we are now moving right along into Fall. Even though Fall doesn’t officially begin until September 22nd, it’s common in the US to get into the…
