Mona McClelland, HCT Graduate First and foremost I am a mom and I see how many moms put themselves last on their list of priorities. In fact, moms should be first and filled to the brim, knowing what their self care needs are and taking steps to fulfill their dreams within their busy lives. Most moms are waiting for their turn to "live" and put their lives on hold until some future moment. I created a 10-week program called "How to Be a SUPERMOM," which explores how to make your life super rather than just busy, so you can love your life as well as love being a mom. Read More
Glori Jarvi, HCT Student (The following was originally an email sent by Glori to her classmates. Reprinted and edited with permission.) Last night I did my first coaching session. Because of the in-depth training in the Basic Coaching Model I felt very comfortable with my client. Before she arrived, I did a "gremlin taming" meditation which helped me to focus on her and her needs. The meditation I learned from the book Taming Your Gremlin (Rick Carson). I focused on my breathing for a few minutes, being gentle with myself. If my awareness shifted, I simply brought my awareness back to my breath. Then I became aware of my skin and any sensations I felt, as well as any sounds I was hearing, noting that my skin is the boundary that separates me from the rest of the world. Read More
Bill Shatner, HCT Graduate Several years ago I was diagnosed with a very serious case of ulcerative colitis. Through some major transformations in various areas of my life, I healed myself from this chronic illness. Three years have past and I have not had any reoccurring symptoms or reactions. If I choose to, I can eat anything I want with no complications whatsoever. After experiencing such success with my self-directed healing process, I decided to explore health coaching. Read More |
Theresa Whiteside, HCT Student Have you ever wondered why, try as you might to be positive, the self-doubt, worry and fear end up sabotaging your best efforts to stay there in that assured and confident place - the place where you can clearly see your perpetually happy and wildly successful life? Why does it feel like you're always battling your very own self? How are you supposed to reconcile these two inner voices and their opposing messages? Positive vs. Negative. Success vs. Failure. Courage vs. Fear. Belief vs. Doubt. Can vs. Can't. Have you resigned yourself to living a less than ideal life, consoling yourself with, "I guess this is just how life was meant to be." The Law of Attraction suggests that if you simply think positively and focus on what you want, the Universe will conspire to help you achieve the life you want. It all sounds so easy. The Law of Attraction does exist, but it's not the whole story. Read More
I've always dreamed of writing a book and could even picture myself in my own personal studio diligently creating page after page of written words that would inspire people to. (screech).to.(mind shut down).to do what? Ummmmmm. interesting question! This was a question that has haunted me for years. Although I KNEW there was a book inside of me, I just had no idea what it wanted to be. Or what to do with it if it ever came out! So my dream became hope that turned into inaction. Fast forward. I became a health coach and combined health coaching with my life coach training to support people in finally.FINALLY.losing weight and gaining health. It was during my time with clients that I realized I was answering the same questions over and over again - to intelligent people with plenty of resources. Read More |
