Imagine Yourself Better

What do you think of yourself?  Are you typically Positive Polly, or are you more of a Negative Nelly?  The way you see yourself has been shown to make a difference in overall wellness.  The good news is that you can do something to improve your wellness just by intentionally imagining yourself in a better light.  You’ve heard about how “being your best self” can change an outcome from many of the experts on success psychology and athletic performance.  Here’s a glimpse of how imagining your best possible self can impact your overall well-being:

Imagining a “Best Possible Self” to Generate Optimism

Self-Coaching in 10 Steps

Something has happened to change your life.  It may be an injury, illness, surgery, or other loss of health.  It may be a change in lifestyle, career, or the role you play in the family.  Or maybe it was the death of a loved one, end of a relationship, or loss of a dream that kept you going.  Now what?

Transitions in life are often difficult and energy draining.  Our brain can get stuck on what has happened even though life continues to move on all around us.  How can we take care of our need for processing all the emotions and still prepare to recharge our batteries and re-enter “real life” as it is now?  Coaching can help.

Is Happiness a Choice?

Believe it or not, it is within your power to create positive thoughts allowing you to accomplish anything you set out to do.  Can you really think yourself happy?  The answer is a qualified yes. Research proves that how we think can directly affect how we feel.  Here are the ways in which positive thoughts can help you accomplish many things in life.

Your New Wellness Story

New Life Story® Wellness Coaching 

Empowering people who have been sidelined by injury or illness to create a new story of wellness.”

It’s time to create a New Wellness Story® for your life

Do you want:

  • Healthier habits, but don’t know how to maintain them?
  • Less stress?
  • Whole person health?
  • Lasting improvements in your mind and body?

Most strategies for changing wellness fail because they are contrary to how the mind and brain work.

Grieving Loss of Health?

Injury and illness are losses that may need grieving.

There are at least 43 losses which can produce the range of emotions we call grief. The long list includes:

  • Death of a loved one
  • Divorce or end of a relationships
  • Major financial changes
  • Loss of health

Grief is normal and natural, but many of the ideas we have been taught about dealing with grief are not helpful, for example:

  • Time heals all wounds
  • You must grieve alone
  • Be strong
  • Don’t feel bad
  • Replace the loss
  • Just keep busy

Mind-Body Training TeleCourse for Energy and Focus

Not a competitive athlete?  That’s okay!

EVERYONE can benefit from mental training to do your best in any situation.  Your “PERFORMING EDGE” is that feeling you get when you are doing your best, when you are “in the zone” mentally and physically. It could be while you’re exercising,  while doing your favorite hobby, or even while working on a project around the house or at your job.

What makes the difference between being “pretty good” at something and being “excellent”?  It’s just a matter of training your mind to “see yourself doing it right,” focusing on what’s happening now to eliminate distractions, and talking to yourself in a way that brings out your very best.

Using Positive Self-Talk to Conquer Any Goal

89370443Do you feel like you are always talking yourself out of success? As soon as you start to set goals for yourself, do you suddenly have nagging thoughts about how you aren’t up to the task or how you simply aren’t qualified to carry it through?

If you have ever experienced either situation, you need to change the way you respond to your inner dialogue. Instead of obeying your negative commands, you can use positive self-talk to counter the negativity and overcome nearly all anxious thoughts.

Using Mental Training to Recover from Injury

What Is Life Coaching?

What Exactly is Life Coaching, Anyway?

When was the last time you had someone focus entirely on you – to help you get what you really want?

A trained life coach will help you define and reach your goals in every area of your life.

Here’s what a life coach can do for you:

•  A trained professional life coach helps you find focus, identify your goals, track your progress, and stay motivated along the way.

•  A life coach helps keep you on track – not just with your long-range goals, but with your monthly, weekly, and daily goals.

Here’s why many people are using a professional life coach:

•  When you have a professionally trained life coach working with you, you have a trained support coach – someone who knows what to do, knows how to guide you – and stays with you, helping you get through the obstacles, and reach your goals.

•  Your life coach is a mentor, a guide, and a motivator – giving you objective feedback, encouragement, and non-stop support.

These are some of the benefits you’ll get from working with a professional life coach:

•  You’ll have a trained professional focusing completely on you – and what you want to achieve.

•  You’ll have help identifying what you really want, in every important area of your life, and you’ll have help getting it.

•  You’ll get assistance, not just now and then – you’ll have help week after week.

•  You’ll have help finding your focus, creating the right attitude and the right actions, overcoming obstacles, tracking your progress, and staying motivated.

Here’s how life coaching works:

•  You’ll meet once a week, usually by phone, for a one-on-one conference, usually 30-45 minutes a session.  In each phone conference you’ll plan and review together each of your “focus goals” and action steps.

•  In each session, you’ll also receive support and guidance in creating the righ attitudes and motivations in the areas that you want to work on most.

•  In addition to the weekly phone conferences, you’ll also communicate by email – so you’ll have help during the week preparing for each session.

Here’s how you can find out if life coaching is for you:
