Choosing Love over Fear

Choose love over fear. We have all heard that, but how do we accomplish the shift from fear to love?
Many times I throw it out into the room out while working with clients, and often the head nods and we follow the stream.
Love sounds, feels, and is, way more inspiring than fear.
In my experience, we humans are quite adept at creating a blinding state of fear.
To quiet the fear, try this simple statement. Instead of these fearful thoughts, I choose love.
Try it. Love over fear.
Inside My Practice
August was a hot month for change. A software engineer came in to stop an embarrassing, long-term habit and we took care of it in one session.
I had to call him two times to get this information. When we finally talked I said, "Don't tell anyone you saw me. I think it was a coincidence."
A woman came in because she was sure that buried somewhere in her mind was abuse. She felt that she had so many of the symptoms and was just tired of living with them. We were able to shift some of her thoughts; she sent me an encouraging report on how she is feeling as she processes. There is still more to do.
Someone bothered with fibromyalgia came in for pain reduction. I think she was shocked by what a difference EFT made for her. Within twenty minutes her range of motion increased dramatically. While her pain subsided, we did not manage to get her to zero pain. I taught her some things to do and made her a hypnosis recording. I am hoping for her to be free of pain. OK.
This one is from July, but it is fun. I got a text from a beautiful and talented Goddess. She said, "I have been saying no so much this week- and it is delicious and bubbly like champagne! Thanks, you changed my life."
A few people came in for help with processing some painful family relationships. I think of these emotional clearings and picking up the arm on an old record player, and moving it to a new tune.
Some times changing your mind is just that easy!
And then there was the handsome baseball player, who came in with his wife to improve what he called "his head game." His game is on. There's more. She came in for weight loss. Now she is going to Rumba Class and has sent her friend to me.
Another client came in and gave me the high five, " Twenty-five pounds freer!" I love what I do!
What would changing your mind do for you?
Change Your Mind About Twitter?
After rolling my eyes and playing dead over all of the twitter hoopla, I am now a mesmerized fan. Yes, I shifted my stubborn stance and changed my mind…….whew
Six months ago I said to Sandy Jones-Kaminski, the Miss Manners of networking and early Twitter fan, "I mentioned Twitter to my kids and they asked, What is that?"
Now my recent college graduate tweets every day….all day! As I write, I hear the tweet of her TweetDeck. I showed her the possibilities and then I had the delicious pleasure of hearing tell a friend, "My Mom knows more about Tweeting than I do."
That girl used to call me techno-babe and roll her eyes. OK. End of my mid-life bloviation.
What is so fascinating about Twitter? and TweetDeck? Well, TweetDeck is the mother lode of eavesdropping. Do you want to know what is the word on the street for iPhones? a book? a movie, traffic, the Tour de France, the MJ special you weren't watching. You can find out in real time. And it keeps at it while you are off doing other things.
Search anything: At&T, organic cherries, Wii Fit and find out what people are really saying.
Do you have any idea how many people put Wii Fit back in the box after it calls them obese?
You can easily make twitter a personalized news feed. Your own international and local associated press feed without interference. Whatever eclectic interest you have, that you want someone, anyone, to talk to about, you can find that someone on Twitter.
Facebook is a virtual neighborhood. You create a community and you put on your Mr. Rogers sweater and check in to see what your friends are doing. You are at your neighbor's kitchen table, or on the front porch in a small town and you learn a lot about what is going on, but your virtual neighborhood can span the globe.
Twitter has the potential to open your world a few more big notches. What will it become? Will it last? Who knows?
If the internet is the Wild West, then Twitter could be San Francisco.
You might want to check it out. I am off to check my Tweet Deck searches. I hope I find you there.
