The Answer Just May Be the Question Much of the work I do as a life coach, spiritual teacher, and vibrational healer is about defining the problem or issue. After all, if you don't know what's causing the problem, how are you going to fix it? Just knowing that you're unhappy with your life, your relationships aren't working for you, or you don't feel so good isn't enough information to work with. In order to achieve any measure of betterment or relief, information about the core cause of the problem is necessary. The process of question-asking can be compared to an office visit with traditional medical doctors who spend most of their time with a patient asking questions, poking and prodding, and taking samples for tests. (After spending countless hours in various doctors' waiting rooms all my life, it's become blatantly obvious why we're called "patients". But that's another story.) Much of the life coaching education I received was weighed toward sharpening the skill of listening. While that's a great skill to have for anyone who's in a service-oriented business I believe an even more valuable skill is that of asking excellent questions. It's not unusual for my clients and I to spend half to two-thirds of a session on getting to the core of the issue. That's where the Art and Science of Questions comes into play. You see, the quality of the question determines the quality of the answer. Or, like Tony Robbins said, "If you want a better answer, ask a better question." The quality of the question determines the quality of the answer. The quality of the answer determines the quality of the results achieved. This is true of any life-betterment practice, such as life coaching and vibrational healing. There's a definite talent in creating questions that produce valuable information. For example, there's the open-ended question vs. the closed-ended question. The difference? One results in loads of information. One results in an answer of one word. As an example:
As often happens during sessions with clients, the questions themselves are often the answer. One of the coaching tools I've found to be very valuable for my clients is the Carry-around Question. This is a question that you just carry around with you for a week or so and ask it of yourself several times a day, typically during key points such as during difficult or challenging situations. The purpose is to bring greater awareness about an overall issue. For
example, the question might be "How
is my core life value of ______ being honored or not in this situation?" This might bring to the surface additional questions along the lines of "What am I feeling emotionally?" and "How am I feeling physically?" and "How is this affecting my energy?". If you have the right questions, the answer becomes obvious. The trick is finding those questions. Love, ps. How would your life become better if you had someone to assist you in asking yourself the questions that result in the most valuable, productive, and informative answers? That someone could be me.

your mind... Two important factoids about how your mind works:
While you may be unaware of their influence on you, your beliefs direct your actions, choices, and behaviors. Your subconscious beliefs create the filters through which you respond to life's challenges. Your subconscious beliefs establish the limits of what you can achieve.
Rescripting subconscious limiting beliefs is like reprogramming a computer. Using PSYCH-K® techniques, your body is used like a computer keyboard which to communicate with your brain. During a PSYCH-K® session both hemispheres of the brain are included in the reprogramming to maximize your full potential.
Private sessions by phone and in person. Essential Oil of the Month Lemongrass (Cymbopogon flexuosus) has a light, fresh, citrus aroma with earthy undertones. Refreshing, rejuvenating, stimulating, and balancing, it inspires and improves mental clarity. It's fragrant influence promotes psychic awareness. Lemongrass is antifungal, antibacterial, antiparasitic, and anti-inflammatory. It also supports the both the blood and lymph circulatory systems, dilating blood vessels and promoting lymph flow. Personal Story My husband is currently working up in the Olympic Mountains, where biting insects are flying thick right now. Adverse to having him using one of those spray-on repellents with who-knows-what-kind of chemicals are in them, I whipped up a small bottle of insect repellent (recipe below) for him. He put a couple of drops on his face and neck in the morning and not one bug landed on him all day! He said they buzzed around him, but they stayed off his skin. The other guys with the sprayed-on chemicals? They were swatting at bugs on their arms and faces all day. Insect Repellent 6
drops Peppermint oil Add to vegetable oil (the olive oil you use for cooking works great). A couple of tablespoons of oil is plenty. Keep in a glass bottle and use as needed. Additional suggestions of how to use it:
Young Living oil is steam distilled from the leaves and stems of 100% organic plants. There are no chemicals used in the processing of the plants. Nor are there chemicals or other ingredients added to dilute or damage the natural healing properties of the oil. Order
