OVERWHELM can arrive in many forms. We’ve packed on so much on our to-do list or life has suddenly thrown some interesting twists our way. Whether we are choosing a surgeon, a lawyer, a graduate school program or whether or not to have children…we are, all of us, always dealing with multiple choices and possibilities.

Doctoral degrees.Career choices or changes. Illness and death. Entrepreneurial dreams. Marriage. Divorce. Break-ups. Graduations. Births. We are all dealing with them. Some flow better and others may collapse under the stress…

How do we make sense of it all and build lives that make us happy?

One of the keys to being happy and making choices that support our wellness is checking in which “what we believe about what we are going through.”

In that sense HOW we choose to see, believe and experience something will DEFINE the experience, the impact and the consequences to our health.

We have all heard terrible stories of war, concentration camps and violence…the survivors who thrive tend to have a belief in hope, faith and the undying will that will get them through. Many people come through marked but not destroyed from terrible ordeals because they CHOOSE to see their experiences in a certain light.

SO as you navigate your nasty boss, difficult relationship or the many decisions that shape your life…start to CHOOSE how you look at it.

I remember years ago, I worked a day job and at night I coat checked at nightclubs. This meant I was often working from 9am till 4am with maybe a 2 hour break. It wasn’t every day, only 3-4 days a week but getting only 3 hours of sleep before I hit the day job or the homework ( I was in college too) were not easy.

I remember many early mornings (4am ish) in the taxi crossing the 59th street bridge, tears streaming down my face and thinking,” This is all worth it. This is building my will, my focus and paying off school debt…” Then,” Oh please God/Universe please let this all work out!”

At the time, I knew I had special talents that weren’t necessarily on a university’s curriculum or on a degree. I didn’t know how my interest in media, metaphysics, healing and empowerment as well as the arts would somehow work out.

FLASH FORWARD: to last week. I was coming home from a few meetings in the city and 2 in-person intuitive sessions. When I do in-persons, my clients pay for transportation and I was looking out the back window of a taxi when I saw the familiar view, the one I’d seen for several years as I worked two jobs and finished school.

Tears slid down my face and I laughed. It was all worth it. I knew it would all pay off. I always believed. I have strong conviction and a deep devotion to my special service. SOMEHOW it would work out as long as I kept stepping up. It did.

What you BELIEVE
is what you PERCEIVE
and therefore RECEIVE and ACHIEVE.
I didn’t create that phrase but I sure do believe it AND have witnessed it over and over with students, clients and people all over the world.

As a clinical hypnotherapist, BELIEFS are at the core. HOW we SEE EVERYTHING SHAPES OUR EXPERIENCE.

Our parents can be people who don’t believe in us and nag us or they can love us and want the best for us.

Our boss can be a hateful devil or a great trickster that the Universe is employing to let you know, “CHILD, you do not belong here!”

Check in with yourself. When something feels limiting and constraining ask yourself,” If everything was being created for me….even the tensions and the stresses…what could I be learning? How can I step into greater courage, strength and communication by handling this situation now?”

Ahhhh…yes. We can choose to stay hidden in a box, remember if we argue for our limitations, they are surely ours!

IF we seek opportunities for growth and expansion, they are ours as well!
Let us CHOOSE WISELY!
