***If Your Voice Is Childlike, What Image Are You Projecting?

I hear it all the time: women phoning me and complaining that their voice sounds like that of a child. If you have this problem, then the image you are projecting is not one of confidence or maturity. The good news is that you have a better voice inside of you which is resonant and more mature in sound. I found mine when I was in graduate school and it landed me the jobs I wanted in New York City as well as jobs I wasn’t seeking.

How to Become More Conscious

I define consciousness as our life force. When you take away all of our distractions and limitations, we become more conscious. It isn’t that consciousness evolves, for it is we who evolve to be conscious. From our most intelligent thoughts to our best perceptions, we appreciate them because we are conscious of them. The most important aspiration human beings have is to be more conscious, more alive in the moment and not limited by their own mind. Since our limitations are su

How to evaluate an online Home Mortgage Lender and Identify Deceiving Internet Advertising

Which Internet lender do you choose to originate your loan? One way is to search the internet for a mortgage lender near your location. Search results for many lenders appear, and you want to make a sound choice. A good beginning is to look at the name of the suggested lender site. Is the company name contained in the URL? If not, you can be easily deceived by clicking on a counterfeit site. The marketing thief makes a copy of some text taken from the genuine lender site. Now your company specific search results will include his website.

The Power of Social Media: Creating Genuine Relationships

TOO MANY Friends? “Do you really know ALL of your facebook friends? There’s NO WAY you have actually met all of those people!” These are statements I hear often, and it’s understandable considering the fact that I have thousands of facebook & twitter connections. The comments come in many variations, but they are all implying the same thing… those thousands of friends? They aren’t REAL friends…. At first I felt guilty for having so many friends, and would have a hard time answering that question. But then, the revelation came.

Challenge The Behaviour Not The Person

If you want to improve your relationships, if you want to build happier and longer lasting social connections, you have to learn how to better communicate. If let’s say for example you are in a relationship and your partner acts in ways that you no longer can accept, ways that are hurting your feelings, you have to know how to responds to his actions, his behaviors and words. You have to learn to stop reacting and start responding. Always talk about the behavior and not the person.

Get Rid of Those Old, Disempowering Thoughts!

It takes courage and effort to get rid of old, disempowering thoughts and beliefs that hold us back, but it can be done! Not long ago, my late mother was very weak from cancer and lying in a hospital bed. My brother and I were trying to figure out how we might get her outside on a lovely day so that she could enjoy the sunshine and be in touch with nature. Mom was a little agitated, and said, "Don't be silly. I can't go outside!” My brother had the idea to roll her bed, which was on wheels, down the corridors and out the door to the hospital's grassy courtyard.

The Freeze Response and EFT

Wanting to get rid of something is a stuck and resistant energy. It is also the most common thing I hear when someone comes to me for an EFT session. If, for example, you have had neck pain for two years and it's not going away, more often than not, you'll feel frustrated, angry and helpless that nothing you're doing is 'getting rid of it'. This is totally understandable and you need to begin and accept exactly where you're at and acknowledge how you feel. It can be very difficult to take a moment and ask “Why do I have this neck pain”? “When did it start”?

Teaching Children Response-Ability

As parents, most of us feel it our duty to protect our children from harm. We can, and should, take all precautionary measures to prevent injury to our children and teach them safety practices and self care. However, protecting them from the natural ebb and flow of life can leave them ill equipped to successfully manage adversity, loss, failure, conflict or disappointment. Like it or not, life is not always predictable or smooth. In fact, the one thing that is predictable is that life will be a roller coaster of ups and downs, highs and lows, calm and storm.

For many people who speak in a normal volume of sound, straining to hear someone who speaks too softly is very frustrating. If you are soft-spoken and refuse to increase your volume to be heard comfortably (notice I didn’t say to speak loudly), then your message is not being heard. What message are you sending if no one hears your words? There are only so many times others will ask you to repeat yourself before taking over the conversation or directing the conversation to someone else. And, what that does for your self-confidence is certainly not positive.
