Life's Little Nuggets

 Good afternoon followers!     I'm studying one of my favorite teachers, Terez Hartman teaching a subject that brings me so much happiness, Law of Attraction! Though I'm doing this particular course as a pre-requisite to finish my Masters in Spiritual Life Coaching Certification, it's been one of my favorites to repeat and look at the various tools and applying them in real time to self-care, relationships, being present, having gratitude, authentic, learning a healthy sense of self-expression, and finding what opens up my own sense of adventure and fun. Today, however, I'm going to focus on the tool of BEAUTY! yes, I said BEAUTY!!! Here's the synopsis from this Law of Attraction Course on this Tool: 1. First when you focus on the Prescence of BEAUTY you will see your SCENERY change.  In other words, turn toward what nurtures your soul and more will of the same will flow Greet your day with a SMILE.  When you SMILE at LIFE, it SMILES back at YOU! https://www.psy...

  Good morning early birds!!!      I'm studying Gloria Flores, "Sobriety Life Coaching" offered through "Transformation Academy". One of the relatable and personal tools presented is setting SMART GOALS and CHUNKING. First WHAT EXACTLY is a SMART GOAL? The ACRONYM for SMART is: S is for SPECIFIC M is for MEASURABLE A is for ATTAINABLE/ACHIEVABLE R is for RELEVANT T is for TIME-BOUND https://www.smartsheet.com/sites/default/files/IC-SMART-Goals-Worksheet-9237-PDF.pdf In this particular lesson, each of the acronyms are broken down and explained. 1. Specific : What are you looking to accomplish? Set a clear and SPECIFIC GOAL. The narrower your FOCUS is, the EASIER it will be for YOU to DETERMINE how EXACTLY can ACHIEVE IT. Here's how to get more SPECIFIC with your GOAL: What do I want to accomplish? Why do I want to accomplish this? Why is important to me? Who are the people involved in order to ACHIEVE this GOAL? WHERE is this LOCATED? What RESOURCES or ROADBL...

 Good morning, Followers,    Funny how life and HP will give you what you need right when you need it if you are paying ATTENTION!!! I was driving to get my car that I inherited from my former oldest brother serviced, and I was nudged to do Grief Coaching. I don't think it was an accident because I had been praying for many months to do something in his memory and here the answer CAME! The course came through "Certified Execellence". Here going to cover tools for Grief Healing: 1. Mindfulness and Meditation to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD. It also helps those in grief learn to get into the present moment, observe their thoughts and emotions without JUDGMENT and cultivate an attitude of ACCEPTANCE and Self-Kindness. https://heatherstang.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/ADEC-Handout-2016-Final.pdf https://www.mindful.org/mindfulness-for-grief-and-loss/ 2. Therapeutic Writing and Journaling Exercises: This tool allows grievers to safely express their thoughts, ...

  Good morning followers!!!     I don't know how many of you have seen the movie, "What About Bob?", but I'm going to use an excerpt of it to introduce this tool. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JI1SLqq3BQo&list=PLpxRzCf0gOr5Y5Xww6TmTMsvZBD6ySVg9&index=12 This tool giving your thoughts a name, in this case, Bob, is one of my favorites! This is one of my favorites! I'm covering it in the Course, "Law of Attraction" for my Master Spiritual Life Coach Certification through "Transformation Academy". Here is how to take power back from your "Bob": 1. IGNORE"BOB": Don't take your "Bob" SERIOUSLY!!! When he or she starts hopping on that negative doom train, imagine "BOB" in has an ANIMATED VOICE or is WEARING A CLOWN SUIT OR LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER RIDICULOUS CARTOON CARACTER. "BOB" isn't you, and moreover, doesn't KNOW what he's talking about!!! 2. PROTECT "BOB": "BOB...

  Good morning, followers!    As I'm getting deeper into this "Yoga Life Coaching" with Victoria Hawkins, I found this powerful tool for taking care of your "Energetic Self." It is referred to as "Cutting the Cord": This tool is useful when: 1.We feel as though we have been living our whole True Self and being pulled in "Two Directions." 2. We are thinking about or focusing about someone else while trying to get our work done. 3. We want to simply FOCUS on the MOMENT. 4. YOUR ENERGY IS DRAINED. The process is this.... Think about whether there is a situation that needs forgiveness. You choose to let go of the hurt so that you can be free and move forward in life.  Ask yourself are you ready to forgive? Are you drained of energy? If you're not ready to forgive... Do the process again. Repeat: "I FORGIVE THIS PERSON AND THIS SITUATION" If they are attached at the hip, visually cut the cord with your hand motion there. If they are ...
