Be Heard!
Most times in Life Coaching and
often in therapy, underneath every problem is a need to be understood and
heard. Some part of you hasn’t gotten to have its say or have an opinion. So,
this means that you have stuffed down what you feel into a place that can no
longer manage holding your pain. This way of managing your thoughts and
feelings can only lead to anxiety, stress, and most times addiction. So, first
thing on your list of “to do’s” today: Find a way to be heard!
For me, I write. I have found a
considerable amount of thrill in the ability to be completely transparent as a
writer. Often, I will give my clients the exercise to simply write to a person
he or she is angry with. Start with the words! Express yourself in a way that
shares exactly what you feel. I wouldn’t recommend sending that version of your
feelings to anyone. In fact, I wouldn’t recommend sending an email or a letter
to anyone you have harsh or hurt feelings with. This is what telephones and
visits are for. In this age of social media, we too often send off a flippant
e-mail or letter, then, we actually give away our power in the doing.
When you have no response from
someone who has hurt you, after you have exposed your feelings, often, the
result can be worse than expressing your feelings. No, you need to get in there
and face your demons. Now, if your anger is with someone who has passed on,
then you have the option of finding a surrogate person, often a therapist, to
share your hurt with. In hypnosis, sometimes we can imagine so deeply that you
face your antagonist that, when you awake from your trance, you feel as if
something deeply has changed in your subconscious mind around the hurtful
situation.
Being heard is a great goal
today. Find a way to simply let someone know how you feel. This may be a person
you have been wanting to meet, a friend who has been sucking away your energy,
or a family member who has taken advantage of you. Then, on the opposite end of
the spectrum, tell someone today how good they have made you feel, as well. If
someone in the service industry does something extraordinary and has gone out
of his/her way to make me feel welcome, taken care of, or has been
compassionate; often, I will tell them they have made my day or a tell one of
the supervisors of the great work. This can change someone else’s day complete.
You’ll find that the more you do this good kind of sharing, the better people
treat you. With what measure you give out, you shall also receive.
To this
information, I freely add that in July, I am moving to Southern Florida to
begin a new small imprint publishing company called: Finding Authentic You
Publishing: findingauthenticyou-publishing.com. I am accepting submissions now
for my January 2015 bookshelf. If you or any friends are interested, please go
to the website and read the submission guidelines. Thanks.
Finding
Authentic You is my brand and
is also a self-help guide, which I wrote, with 365 Discoveries, meant to
aid you in facilitating some of life’s most difficult challenges, like sleep.
But, the discoveries also lead you to what you believe spiritually,
understanding your goals, learning to believe in your self, discovering the
most distinct you, unlocking all of your negative thinking, and helping you
replace it with positive, creative thought using many different modalities,
including hypnosis, prayer, and psychology. Once you know yourself, then relationship
with Spirit and people is a fairly easy task.
For
much more information about finding out about the psychology of the human mind
and being your authentic self, self-love, and self-esteem, check out my new
book below. “Finding Authentic You” will answer many of the questions I propose
above. The book also has many discoveries about health, both mental and
physical, as well as spiritual discoveries to lead you to your highest and
best! Thanks for being a part of my tribe and helping me make this book be a
Bestseller.
