Are you who your friends are?

Food for thought...

Have you ever noticed close friends or couples that spend a lot of time with each other start to seem a lot alike? This study shows: If you want to be happier hang out with happier people. If you want to be healthier hang out with healthier people. ETC... While this shows the science of social networking it is also true that our energy fields effect each other. If you hang out with negative people that complain a lot, not only can you unknowingly start to have those same behaviors, their negative energy can be exhausting and draining in many ways. When you hang out with positive people their energy can be uplifting, healing and their behaviors can rub off on you as well. Whether behaviorally or energetically you may very likely be effected by who you spend the most of your time with. Chose wisely...

As well, how we feel, how we behave, how we think may have an impact on the people we spend time with.

 

Have you ever noticed that at a time when you need people the most they are often there the least? When we feel needy, desperate, lonely and so on we can actually send out energy that is very uncomfortable to others and can propel them away.

 

When we are confident, joyful, loving, and the like, we tend to attract more people that are either matching in such energy or those that are leaning that way. We become appealing to many because our energy is much like a scent. When it is pleasing people want more and come closer. When it is "yucky" people feel uncomfortable and tend to go away.

 

When we are in our "yuck" (feeling sad, depressed, rage-full, angry, bitter, resentful, etc) and attract people to us in that state they too are in the same place or find some sense of "normalcy" in that kind of energy.

 

As we mind our thoughts, feelings, and emotions and raise to a higher vibration we both contribute higher energy to our world, as well as attract to ourselves those in a higher vibration.   

 

I like that commercial with Jamie Lee Curtis where she is talking about Activia. She mentions her "normal" is healthy and comfortable. Of course she is referring to her digestive system but it is the same for all aspects of our life. "Normal" is what you are used to, what you are conditioned to and like what she says in the commercial, we get to change what is normal for us.

 

Be mindful of your energy, your thoughts and your feelings because you do effect others. Decide what contributions you would like to make to your loved ones lives and to the lives of others you come into contact with.

 

Be mindful of who you are associating with and spending most of your time with as that may enforce your goals or it may work against them.

 

In peace and joy,

Jody G.

 

Appreciation tip for today. You get more of what you appreciate!

Tip for the day:

No matter how great your home is, or even if you have an eviction notice on the door, or if you live in a shelter, take a moment to walk around and clean something or just touch the walls and items around you. While you are dusting or vacuuming or doing dishes or whatever you find to do, think of all the things about your home you can be grateful for. Here is a list to help you out. Some of these I have gleaned from my dear friend Desiree Rudder who is a professional business owner and single mom of 7 children.

Remember that what you focus on you will get more of in your life. Gratitude, sincere feelings of gratitude is the strongest way to focus your energy. In this state of gratitude you will become present, really feel appreciation for what you have in this moment (what you currently have and what you have in your memory).

Have fun with this. Allow yourself to feel this gratitude joyfully and deeply.  

·         I am so grateful for the dirty dishes as they are proof my family has eaten

·         I am so grateful for the roof that keeps the weather out

·         I am so very grateful for the bedding we have to keep us warm at night

·         I am grateful for the vacuuming that I can do because I have a home and electricity

·         I am grateful for the dusting I have to do because this means I have a home and furniture

·         I am grateful for the walls on my home as they too keep the weather out and shelter me and my family

·         I am grateful for the shelter this space is giving me and my family right now in this very moment

·         I am so very grateful for all of the times me and my family have had shelter

·         I am so very grateful for all of the times my family has had a home to sleep in

·         I am so very grateful for all of the times my family and I have had a home to share meals in

·         I am so very grateful for all of the time we have been provided for

·         I am so very grateful for the messes in my home because that means to me that we are actively living

·         I am so very grateful for all of the times each person has done their part to clean up our home

·         I am so absolutely very grateful for all of the love in my home

·         I am grateful for all of the joy and laughter in our home

·         I am grateful for my home

Remember to replace have to with get to. Example: “I have to clean” with “I get to clean”.

Let me know how this feels. How did this gratitude shift your day?

Enjoy in joy…

When you first start out tapping there is a tiny percentage of people that will notice:

A drop in energy * More pain, depression, or symptoms.

This is temporary! Keep tapping. It may be you need to tap lighter. But keep tapping because it is simply the system working through some rough stuff. This well be discussed in class.

How can I benefit from EFT tapping in groups or with a coach?

In groups you will hear things that are far different than what you know to be your own truth or what you are currently aware of. We each have different levels of awareness, different experiences that bring us to our current place and by tapping together we benefit each other by assisting in uncovering what we were unaware of and releasing it.

Also, as another person heals something you will receive healing energy just by being present while others are healing. As we reach epiphanies and other forms of healing we send out vibrations that create an opening for others to receive the same. We are all inner connected and what benefits one, benefits us all.

With a coach you will be able to do individualized sessions and learn what to tap on more specifically for you. You can receive support and guidance.  

With a coach you have more opportunities to ask questions, ask for clarification and you have more privacy to cry, scream, laugh and release in your own way. Coaches motivate and inspire you to follow through on your treatment and success goals.

A coach is not a therapist and works much like a coach of a sports team or an athlete. If things get overwhelming to you and you are dealing with issues outside of the scope of practice of a coach it would be recommended you follow up with a licensed mental health therapist.

Please do not stop medications or the care of your doctor or therapist just because you are feeling better. Maintain an open relationship with your mental health and physical health care providers. How you work on your healing is your choice, do so wisely.

While EFT can bring about great healing and positive changes quickly it can also cause a “shock to the system” so to speak. It is advisable that you work with a coach and that you maintain the care of other health practitioners as needed.

It is ok to expect results as you will experience them.

A coach can also assist in writing affirmations and a treatment plan that is right for you. Check with your Success or Life Coach to get an appointment scheduled.

Happy tapping!
