Our bodies contain treasures of important and valuable information about our lives and our careers. This body wisdom is called intuition, calling our intuition to action can help us navigate our lives with more ease and confidence.
 
Many of us, however, aren’t in practice of hearing and listening to those valuable clues and facts that are bodies give us everyday. Luckily, there are ways that we can embrace our bodies and our body wisdom, and begin to hear valuable information about our careers (and our finances, our relationships, and lives!!).
 
Here is an easy and quick 4-minute technique that will support you in beginning to become re-acquainted with your body wisdom: READ MORE

What to do with Fear – Part II

Leave a Comment

In my last newsletter, I discussed the role that fear plays in our lives and introduced the idea that we can transform it into a positive force that works for us.  Fear often creeps up when we are ready to pursue a compelling, juicy goal. Sometimes our fear is so big that it rears its head before we even have the opportunity to dream up what we really want for ourselves. However, if navigated correctly, our fears can give us great insight into ourselves and actually become tools to help us accomplish our greatest dreams.

What To Do When Fear Rears its Head

1 Comment

We all know the feeling. You have just set an exciting, compelling goal for yourself. Maybe the goal is to climb Machupichu or to create a new career or to begin dating again or to finally tell that less-than-supportive friend how she has hurt you. Whatever the goal is, it is something you know that you really want deep inside. You know you want it because – even if only momentarily – your heart skips a beat or everything simply comes into alignment.

Getting What You Want (instead of Doing What You Have To)

In 1921, Stanford University began studying children who had genius level IQs. They discovered that IQ or intelligence is not the most vital element for success. Rather, it is self-confidence, perseverance, and an inclination to set goals. In other words, the simple act of acknowledging and defining what we want to accomplish is more important to success in life than even a high IQ.

Perhaps that’s because we often make our goals things we have to get done, instead of things we want to accomplish. There is no excitement, motivation or passion in a “have to”!! There is nothing compelling about a “have to”. READ MORE

The Third Key to Accessing Your Intuition – Asking for Clarity

Leave a Comment

As we’ve seen in the last two Soulful Coaching newsletters, the first two steps to Accessing Your Intuition (they are Acknowledging Your Body and Embracing Your Body) allow us to prepare our ourselves so that we can receive the valuable information that is kept there. Once we have re-connected with our bodies and opened the channel for hearing our body wisdom, the next step is Asking for Clarity.

 

If you haven’t done this before, it is amazing to discover that you really can hear the answers and information that are right for you if you simply ask the questions. So often, we forget to ask. However, the act of asking the question provides us an opportunity to focus on the issue at hand and get clear on what it is we really want to know.

In the last Soulful Coaching newsletter, we looked at the first step to accessing your intuition – Embracing Your Body. We learned that intuition is located in the body – it is literal body wisdom – and it is our job to reclaim the ways we have rejected or ignored our hands, our thighs, our hearts, on and on.

Now, we’re ready to move on to the next key to Accessing Your Intuition – Honoring Your Body. When was the last time you actually honored your body? READ MORE
