Seven Ways to Cultivate the Practice of Belief

Seven Ways to Cultivate the Practice of Belief

 

At the start of the New Year, we often make goals about our career, health, or relationships. Unfortunately by the end of January, too many of us give up on those goals. Not because we’re lazy or we didn’t really want the things, it’s because we don’t believe we can actually have them.

 

We often blame it on not enough time or discipline, when in reality it’s neither of these things. The truth is we don’t actually believe we can create what we want.

 

It’s okay not to believe in yourself (at least some of the time).

 

I know we hear a [...]

Letting Go of Normal

Letting Go of Normal

 

I spent a lot of time in the last two years wishing my life could go back to normal. Some days I longed for normal so badly that it made me cry. It wasn’t that I was just in pain from being injured in an accident; it was the frustration that I could no longer do some of the things that were normal to me.

 

In my career as a mind-body coach I watch people long for normal all the time. Many of my current clients suffer from IBS or digestive disorders. They talk often about wanting a normal life. [...]

They’ve also led to great people and experiences that may not have happened had my life [...]

Releasing Resistance and IBS

Releasing Resistance and IBS

Resistance isn’t always bad, in fact it can teach us crucial things about what isn’t working for us. However, when it gets in the way of allowing us to accept and move forward, it needs to be released.

 

This came to me when I purposely avoided creating intentions and that word is: release.

 

When it came to me it seemed perfect. Because I realize in the last year there are a lot of things that I need to release both emotionally and physically.

 

Everything we hold emotionally affects us physically.

 

When I say that, people often get nervous and optimistic if you’re holding [...]

How To Live Well With IBS

I am well.

 

I heard this from Wayne Dwyer at 3 am on a night when I had turned on the TV because sleep just wasn’t happening.

 

Three simple words yet so powerful.

 

For people struggling with IBS the words “ I am well” don’t often cross your mind. But they should.

 

You see if you focus on “I am well” you take your attention off what is wrong with you.

 

Simple yet so hard.

 

Why?

 

Because were so used to seeing what’s wrong with our body and trying to fix it.

 

And no matter how hard we try we can’t control our body.

 

But we can control [...]
