THERE'S A REASON IT ISN'T WORKING When you start down a path and it starts to feel like you're pushing a rock up a hill, then if you're anything like me, you probably push forward even harder, telling yourself that you have to make it work, despite all odds. The truth is that if something isn't working, there's a reason.  Here's how to listen to it. (Watch Video) ….. [Essential Healing - Episode 135] #essentialhealing

"THINK POSITIVE" DOESN'T WORK FOR YOU If you've ever tried to change something big in your life simply by changing your thoughts and felt like it didn't work for you, you're not alone.  "Think positive thoughts" or "Focus on what you want" (vs. what you don't want) is a common recommendation as the go-to for creating lasting change.  While great in theory… it's only PART of the formula. Here's what you're missing. (Watch Video) ….. [Essential Healing - Episode 134] #essentialhealing

SOMETIMES YOU NEED TO LET IT SIT If you're frustrated you're not as far along as you want to be, then forcing yourself to "work harder" may not be the answer.  Sometimes the best thing you can do is let it sit.  Space allows you to relax and distance yourself from the frustration so you can see it from a different perspective. It might just help you find the answer you're looking for to get where you want to go. (Watch Video) ….. [Essential Healing - Episode 133] 1#essentialhealing

WHY DON'T YOU CHANGE IT?   A few weeks ago, a small box fell out of my bathroom cabinet while I was trying to get to something else.   It felt like the gazillionth time it happened.   "Argh…," I thought. "Stupid box."   Then another thought crossed my mind….   "Why don't you change it??"   Interesting question. Why didn't I change it? I'd KNOCKED that box out of the cabinet a gazillion times, but I never once attempted to move it somewhere else so that didn't happen.   In this episode, I share a few reasons why we don't realize the changes that need to happen in our life even though they're right in front of us.   (Watch Video)   …..   [Essential Healing - Episode 131] #essentialhealing

YOU’RE AFRAID TO SHARE YOUR GIFTS You have a conversation you want to lead with the world, a message you have in your heart, but deep down, you’re afraid to share your gifts. You think that you need to have something tangible… something of value to give. But… what if the gift is YOU? It’s important to take the small opportunities to share our gifts with others.

BEING IN THE ENERGY OF "HAVE TO" While saying "I have to" and "I am going to," may seem like the same thing, there’s a distinct energy difference between the two. There’s a heaviness to saying "I HAVE TO." It says, "I’m a victim. I don’t have a choice." Here’s how changing your words can help get you into a forward moving energy instead. (Watch Video) …..

PART OF YOU WANTS TO BE SEEN, AND PART OF YOU DOESN’T When you’re surrounded by people, there may be a part of you that wants to "SEEN" and part of you that doesn’t. Most of the time there’s one side that wins out. Either you stay "hidden in the shadows" and don’t share the real you OR perhaps you become the life of the party or feel like you share TOO much. In either case, if you feel like it isn’t the "REAL" you, you may be missing out on an opportunity. (Watch Video) ….. [Essential Healing - Episode 125] #essentialhealing

YOU DON’T TRUST YOU For many of us, being a victim of violence leaves us feeling like we can’t trust people, environments, maybe even life in general. So we hold ourselves back from living life. We ask ourselves, "How can I learn to trust again?" First, we need to learn how to trust OURSELVES. (Watch Video) ….. [Essential Healing - Episode 124] #essentialhealing

YOUR BODY LET YOU DOWN When your body doesn’t function like you want it to, it can feel like it let you down. It may feel like a loss. Or make YOU feel like a failure. The truth is, it may be the expectations you have around what you should be able to do as you age or how fast you should be able to heal. If you can clear the expectations you have around what your body "should" be able to do, then it’s a lot easier to deal with where it’s at. (Watch Video) …..

CHANGE MEANS GROWTH It can be hard to take the time that we need to heal ourselves. Maybe it’s because we’re afraid of change. Maybe it’s because we’re afraid that everything will fall around us if we look away even for a moment. But, it’s what’s needed for growth. (Watch Video) …..

START WHERE YOU’RE AT If you’re working toward a goal and you STOP… it’s hard to get that momentum going again. Especially if you’re afraid you’re going to hit the same roadblock you did last time.

LOOKING IN A DIFFERENT SPOT TO FIND THE TREASURE Often we’re so certain that the answer we’re looking for is going to be in a particular place, that we don’t bother looking anywhere else.

CHANGING OUR APPROACH TO GET A NEW PERSPECTIVE Often we think that we can go from where we are to where we want to be in a single leap. And because we’re thinking of it in a linear fashion, we don’t realize why the steps we’re taking aren’t working. To figure out the reason why (get a new perspective), we need to change our approach.

YOU’RE LETTING IT GO TOO FAR. There is something in your life that you don’t like, but you’re not doing anything about it because you think it will work itself out.

YOU KEEP WAITING FOR MORE EVIDENCE BEFORE YOU’LL TRUST YOUR INTUITION You often have a "feeling" about something but you ignore it because you want more evidence. This leaves you in situation after situation feeling vulnerable or beating yourself up because you didn’t listen to your own advice. Instead of feeling like you need to see it to know the truth, you need to see it because you know the truth. (Watch Video) ….. [Essential Healing - Episode 117] #essentialhealing

THE UNIVERSE IS PREPARING YOUR ANSWER When you ask someone a question or for help with something and you don’t get an answer, it can feel frustrating. You might assume they didn’t hear you and ask again. When they still don’t respond, you might continue to ask, change your tactics in order to solicit some type of response, or get super frustrated and start creating a story around why you aren’t getting the answer. Here’s why we do the exact same thing when we’re asking the Universe for what we want and what we should do instead. (Watch Video) ….. [Essential Healing - Episode 116] #essentialhealing

ARE YOU ASKING THE RIGHT QUESTION? When faced with a decision, like me, you probably weigh out the pros and cons. You try to simplify it into a simple yes or no, black or white type of decision. You think, "Should I go this way, or that way?" If you’re not sure which way to go, you not only stay stuck at the fork in the road, but you think that the reason you’re stuck is because you can’t figure out the answer.

LEARNING THE LANGUAGE OF THE BODY In this episode Certified Yoga Therapist Anna Molgard and I talk about how learning the language of the body can help you heal from trauma. (Watch Video) ….. About Anna: "My own yoga practice began in 1998, when I was a young mother suffering from a serious back injury and an inability to lead the productive, healthy life I longed for. I was facing surgery with lifelong implications to my mobility. While at the library with my daughter one day, I found a VHS tape with two yoga practices, only one of which I could complete, and I began to practice daily. After six weeks, my surgeon was astonished by what this simple habit had done for my recovery and dismissed me as a surgical candidate. This began my lifelong study and practice of yoga and it’s many benefits, which eventually gave way to Flowing Tree Yoga. There is hope! I’m living, breathing proof. Yoga can help. When not practicing yoga, I stay busy with my family and three children, along with our two dogs. I am a classically trained pianist (sometimes I even compose and play for our meditations) and love creating music, writing poetry, and am very active in my faith community."

YOUR EMOTIONAL JUNK DRAWER IS OVERFLOWING We all have a utility or "junk" drawer somewhere in our house. For most of us, it’s in the kitchen. It’s that place we throw all the little things we don’t have another place for. Batteries, pieces of string, screwdrivers, tacks, nuts & bolts, scissors, etc. Overtime, the little things pile up and the drawer starts to overflow. It becomes unmanageable. We can’t find anything in it anymore. It may even get to the point where it’s difficult to close or open it. We often deal with our emotions the same way. We throw them in an "emotional junk drawer" until we have the space to deal with them. Here’s how to deal with the "junk" in a more manageable way. (Watch Video) …..

YOU’RE AFRAID OF BEING EXPOSED AS AN IMPOSTOR If you meet someone that does what you do, you don’t want to open up about the things that you do because you’re afraid you’ll reveal too much.
