Energy Coaching

Living from the heart means that you choose a life and a lifestyle that are true for you.  You make important decisions because they resonate with your heart and with your own values, and not necessarily with those of others.  You trust your own instincts more than the pressures from advertising or the expectations of society, family and friends.  Living from the heart is about trusting the quiet voice within you that emerges when you quiet down enough to listen.

Moving to Hong Kong was all about listening to our inner voices.  We trust that everything will be OK because we are designing our own path the way we want it to be and according to our values.  The other part of the equation is to live one day at the time and take actions that will build the road to get where we want.  Even when things don’t seem to be moving at the pace we want them to move, we trust that the direction we chose is the right one for us. 

The way to live from your heart is to commit to live a life that reflects your inner voice.  Ask yourself questions like:  “How do I really want to live my life?”, “Am I following my own path or doing things simply because I’ve always done them the same way or because I am living up to someone’s expectations?”  Then, quiet down and listen to yourself.  The answers will come and you will be surprised at what you might discover.

A move is not the easiest thing in the world – especially to the other side of the planet!  However, this move got me thinking about waiting.  It is something most of us don’t really care for - waiting is a pain right?  Now, if you don’t know the place, the habits and the costumes of your new home, you will have to face a learning curve.  That has a lot of waiting involved.  

I realized that there are certain things that will come with time.  There is absolutely no way that I can hurry the process and make it happen faster.  Each one of us has our own learning curve and it obeys certain traits that we recognize in ourselves – our own pace, our own habits and our own processing time.  It’s interesting to see how my husband and I have different strengths and different ways of learning.  It has been a pleasure to witness that my own waiting has not been painful.  I am floating with time and welcoming the insights that are coming to me.  I am taking one day at the time while new habits become incorporated.  It will take time for me to feel more local.  I accept that and I decided to enjoy the “newcomer” status for now.      

In our own lives we find ourselves in new situations all the time.  Situations where the waiting game is on wheater we like it or not.  If we immerse ourselves in it and recognize that there is a learning curve, we will be able to face the new with a great deal of compassion for ourselves.  It’s not giving up – it’s simply breathing!  Going deeper into our own selves and realizing our limitations and the flow taking place.  Jumping into the river of life and letting it take you to your destination without struggle.  Ah, what a blissful river… 

With energy and bliss,

Certainty is a gift.  It comes to us when we decide to do something from our heart.  It’s that feeling of knowing deep inside that it will all work out.  The stronger our certainty, the more Light we draw in to the process. 

There is a major difference between certainty and belief – a belief leaves room for ” I am open to the fact that I might be wrong”.  Certainty is when we KNOW that whatever tools we have will work, that our feelings are pointing us to the right direction and that the Light is on our side – even if we don’t see it right away. 

Hang on to certainty and you will be able to say no to doubts that creep in.  It’s our choice to let the doubts in or not.  If we have certainty on our side, the doubts may come and go but they will not stay in our heads.  If we hang on to this feeling and the joy it brings, the doubts will disappear as quickly as they came.

This week commit to say NO to doubts.  Focus on your certainty about a project or a feeling and experience the happiness it brings!

The greatest quality a human being can have is humility.  Why humility?  Because it gives us the capacity to relate to everyone.  A truly successful person is someone who can put himself/herself in the level of whomever he/she is speaking.  That’s what humility is. 

To really listen to others, we need to silence our ego and give the floor and the moment to the other person.  That action creates the ability to relate to everyone.  Whenever we are having difficulty relating to a person, that’s a great opportunity to ask ourselves:   ”Why it’s so difficult to relate with this person at this moment?  What transformation must you go through in order to bring myself to this person’s level?”

Whatever it is that you are trying to communicate, pay attention to where the message is coming from.  It is our truth we are communicating to others.  The difference between imposing our truth and communicating it is our intent.  If we want to add to the growth of the other person, and if we don’t talk down to them, the message will be well received.  If the message is coming from frustration, pity or anger, those feelings will get in the way of a valuable discussion.

The biggest lessons we need to learn usually come from the people we have most difficulty relating.  Once we infuse the situation with Light and ask the right (and most courageous) questions, we take large steps on our personal development. 

My wish for you – and for me – this week, is that we all be filled with courage to ask the questions and to listen to the answers.

I found that the more I looked around to see what others were doing, the more I lost touch with what I really wanted to do.  The more I got in touch with my own particular mission, the more I felt inspired to follow my own path without seeking the approval of others.  The funny thing is that the more I did what I wanted to do, the approval and admiration from others came naturally.  At that point, it didn’t really matter if others approved of me or not. It was a nice by-product of me following my path, however, it had no effect on how I chose to live my life. 

The most effective way to be attractive to other people is simply to express the best of yourself. Each bird has its own particular song, to define itself and attract others.  You need to find your own unique “song” instead of imitating others or joining with the general chorus.

On this coming week trust yourself, think for yourself, act for yourself and be yourself.  Feel the energy shift when the bliss of being who you are takes over the anxiety of pleasing others.
