Find Life Coach | Meet Amber Tariq: How to Find your True Strength In Midst of Vulnerability?

Amber Tariq is one of the coaches that we found this month and we did a little interview with her. She impressed us with her brave approach.

She has been through a lot in her life, but her biggest obstacle was actually not letting herself feel vulnerable. She wants for her clients to discover their true potential but, it’s trickier than it seems. Our true potential and power is hidden exactly in the one place we try to run away from, our vulnerability.

We can spend our entire life chasing “outside things” to fill our inner gap, but the solution comes only when we embrace our vulnerability.

When we embrace our so called “negative” emotions we unleash our full capacity to experience life with our full potential. Here is what she said.

Name: Amber Tariq

Pillar: The Heart

Who is this coach for: Anyone who wants to find their true strength by embracing their vulnerability and so called “negative” emotions.

How they can help: Through conversation, using language in a way that evokes and engages imagination, using various techniques like shadow work, NLP, emotional integration, mindfulness and gratitude,

First of all, how are you and your family doing in these Pandemic times?

Thank God, we are doing well…

Pandemic’s effects really came in stages.. the first several months were of extreme anxiety…

My husband and I, both are physicians and were working at the front lines, so our families were really worried for us in the beginning of the pandemic, understandably so.

As vaccines became available, and we knew more and more about the disease, it got better with time…

On the positive side, we did not lose our jobs, or even our ability to go to work, so I am extremely grateful for that.

On a deeper level, it was a time of isolation, very little, if any social activity, so it was a magical time for psychological growth and reflection.

I read a lot, and built many new habits. It was very precious soul time for me.

Just came at the exactly right time.

How does the coronavirus pandemic affect your clients? Did it affect you at all?

My clients have experienced burn out from the pandemic…

It has taken a toll on emotional and mental health of my clients.

Like I said, it has impacted me positively in some ways, I have learned so much during pandemic…

There were some frustrating times in between, but I truly believe in long term, it has impacted me like a lesson in humanity and vulnerability.

What are the biggest lessons that you learned in this pandemic?

That global warming is real.

That conversations around racism and privilege need to happen. We truly are in it together.

It is the smallest things in life, like pouring your own coffee in the cafeteria, that bring you so much joy, and are usually taken for granted!

Hand shake truly brings a sense of connection and trust, and how much we as humans crave these small gestures.

The Origin:

Tell us about you, your career, how you started with your coaching career?

To be perfectly honest, my formal career in coaching is pretty recent.

Informally I have loved to see people thrive when you expect the best in them, working under me since 2006, as a resident doctor back in Pakistan.

I was having a hard time in 2019, and was feeling extremely numb, where nothing would give me joy or sadness, when I ‘accidentally’ listened to a TED talk called “Power of Vulnerability” by Brene’ Brown and led me to start reading her books and led to me reading 75 books in just 2019.

It was my spiritual awakening, one thing led to another, and among other things I had a sense of urgency in finding my life’s purpose.. which, I felt, got lost in pursuit of, what brought me recognition rather than joy.

As I explored more and more I rediscovered my love for psychology and philosophy and poetry.

I also remembered what an activist I was in my early teen years, and then it just kind of all got lost in “pursuit of glory”.

I realized, as introvert as I am, and as much as I tend to hide in social gatherings, I also become most alive in deep conversations.

After intense inner work of more than 2 years, which is really 1000 plus hours of self study and taking courses, I felt that all my interests and gifts intersect at coaching.

That really started my formal career in coaching.

What was your biggest obstacle that you had to overcome in your life that made you who you are today?

Interestingly, I must have had hard times, I finished med school, did medical residency twice, second one started when my daughter was nine months old, had my share of medical problems, fertility problems, difficulties in relationships…. but one of the things that made me feel like an outsider (and there are more than one) in coaching world is, that I never felt I have overcome anything difficult…

For one, I have been an optimist, I tend to see glass half full, I have felt guilty of not having “enough suffering”, I think the truth is, that I don’t dwell on hard parts…

But THIS is exactly the biggest obstacle that I have come over…

THIS not having access to difficult emotions, because they were not allowed in my consciousness…

Sadness in others used to trigger me, it is through some of the health challenges eventually, that I have found access to depth and the underworld, myself, and it has made my life so much more flavorful and richer.

I truly believe, hardest obstacle I have overcome is accepting and embracing vulnerabilty and with that my ability to love.

Being in love is inherently not only vulnerable, but also has inherent sense of inferiority to it… and people like myself…. who are intoxicated with positive psychology and laws of manisfestaion, cannot tolerate that.

The thing that keep challenging me is my repetaed getting stuck in heroic quality of consciousness.

The Coaching Style:

How do you innovate with coaching your clients?

Quite a few ways, actually!

I use language in a way that evokes and engages imagination, and that is a huge resource of well being and resilience. It also de literalizes our perceptions and opens us to imaginative and metaphorical thinking…

Any past, present, future event, accident, illness can become a symbol, a metaphor, to engage with in imagination instead of staying fixed.

Bringing story, mythology, and dreams into coaching conversations, in ways that are accessible to lay man changes the quality of life experience.

Kind of going along with imagination is playfulness.. where imagination becomes alive, playfulness comes on line, and when you are being playful, you also imagine more easily.

I love bringing humor with compassion into coaching.. I am trained to do shadow work, emotional integration, mindfulness and gratitude.

I use NLP and Byron Katie’s work too… But my identity really is engaging imagination.

What’s unique about your coaching approach?

My coaching promises a rich inner life as opposed to outer…

It makes life more tolerable and eventually better too…

It relies heavily on accessing and increasing capacity for imagination.

Another thing that makes my coaching unique is the value of hard experiences (betrayal, failure, aging, death, illness) and the richness they can bring… not using positive psychology, but reverse positive psychology (if that is a thing)… by inviting the feelings of inferiority, not enoughness, illness, aging and death, and engaging with them as universal (archetypal) energies, and getting in life long conversation with them.

My clients typically have traditional success, they have grit, perseverance and all the positive psychology more than they need, it has started to suffocate them… what they don’t know is how to allow themselves to be sad, angry, and experience grief.

What benefits do your clients get after working with you?

They can fluidly dance with life, with whatever life throws at them.. more resilience.

Paradoxically by accepting our inferior parts, we actually see an improvement with genuine self esteem, confidence, authenticity and courage.. hence much more ease in communication skills, relationships…

This is helpful across the board with personal and professional life.

They can identify their unique gifts and their true purpose in life.

Paradoxically embracing grief, brings you genuine joy.

Rich inner life, meaning in life.

More access to creativity… (not a surprise, since it is intimately linked to imaginative abilities).. but truly creativity to me, means engaging soulfully and mindfully with life and the world.

Do you use any specific tools to be efficient with your clients?

Not really, I haven’t been coaching professionally long enough.

The Impact:

If you had a super megaphone that, when you speak into, the whole world will hear your message, what would you say?

If our spiritual and personal growth do not translate into the growth of the world, then we seriously need to consider what are we doing and why are we doing it.

After more than 100 years of healing of inner child and people becoming psychics and manifesting kings and queens, we have more war, more violence, more deeply divisive societies, more poisoned oceans and suffocating animals, humans not able to live with dignity of being a human… we need to re think everything.

Our personal growth has to lead to some contribution to the human community and the community of landscapes and creatures that share the planet with us.

That is the only antidote to the loneliness and emptiness we feel.

What is the greatest lesson you have learned in your life?

We all want to be seen and heard, to be cherished for our very essential nature, not our achievements.. and to create a safe place for another human being where they can be authentically themselves without fear of judgement is the greatest gift you can give to another person.

Your final thoughts?

As long as we pursue wealth to the exclusion of poverty, health and longevity to the exclusion and denial of aging, disease and death, and progress and advancement to deny the inherent inferiority and our longings in being imperfect humans…

We will never truly become fulfilled…

The fulfillment comes in embracing the paradox…

Embracing all aspects of our nature and of the soul of the world.. truly love it not just for its progress but also for its longings.

It is through finding our connection to all that surrounds us, that we will appease our unsaid, low grade sense of emptiness, aimlessness and loneliness, that cannot be filled with all the money or the achievements, or consumption of exclusive brands and expensive cars.

Find Life Coach | Meet Janet Maunder: How to Reduce Stress, Anxiety, Think Better and Become The Best Version of Yourself?

Janet Maunder is one of the coaches that we found this month and we did a little interview with her. She impressed us with her holistic approach to coaching.

She has been through a lot in her life, but as she says, you can see the positive in it and learn from it.

And from her vast life experience, studies and education, she learned to help people in all dimensions of life, from reducing stress and anxiety, to changing thinking patterns, from living healthier, to aligning with your best self and true purpose in life.

She is truly a holistic coach in every sense of the word. Here is what she said.

Meet Life Coach Janet Maunder:

find-life-coach-janet-maunder

Name: Janet Maunder

Pillar: The Spirit, The Mind, The Body, The Heart

Who is this coach for: Anyone who wants to reduce their stress, anxiety, change to more positive thinking patterns, align to their true selves and be a healthier versions of themselves.

How they can help: Through various techniques and tools using her experience and knowledge as a qualified nurse, hypnotherapist, NLP and ESI practitioner, reiki master and energy healer.

First of all, how are you and your family doing in these Pandemic times?

I and my family have been coping well with the pandemic.

l am a resident of New Zealand for over 14yrs now, so our rules over behaving during the pandemic have been different to that of my family who all live in the UK.

Also, my experience of the number of cases affected and dying of the coronavirus during the first wave, was very different from that of my family who were probably exposed to more stress and anxiety than l was.

How does the coronavirus pandemic affect your clients? Did it affect you at all?

The coronavirus affected not only my clients in New Zealand but also my clients in Australia, and North America.

Because l am a healthcare professional l had to reduce some of my coaching hours to facilitate the hospital needs of my nursing skills.

This had an effect on my availability for current and new clients that were desperate for stress and anxiety relief.

Most of the clients l was supporting with zoom calls, felt frustrated and overwhelmed with the constant bombardment of the government pandemic new reels, being streamed at the bottom of the television during adverts and constant news flashes interrupting program viewing.

This was the reverse for my clients and family in other parts of the world, they got news that was either sparing or confusing, which caused feelings of stress and anxiety because they didn’t know what was happening or what to do.

For my clients here in New Zealand and especially those in Auckland who experienced more and longer periods of being in lockdowns. Their mental health and the need for my particular coaching skills to help them relax, empty their minds of negative thoughts and find new ways of handling the sudden change in family and work dynamics was quite challenging.

I found with most of my clients the pandemic changed their normal time management and prioritising skills.

Many of them were either trying to juggle working from home and their family, or sorting childcare if they were an essential worker and the added stress of their risk of contracting the virus.

A lot of stress and frustration became apparent in March 2020 when Aucklanders were put into lockdown because 2 cases couldn’t be linked to the border.

This was supposed to be a lockdown for a week, but that turned out to be for several weeks.

Aucklanders were not allowed to mix socially with other family members or friends, they could only go to work if they were either essential workers or needed to seek medical help or get a swab test testing.

The lockdowns continued mostly for Aucklanders as that was the main area where the isolation hotels were and the main airport.

It was frustrating for me and my clients to keep having to stop treatments just as we were making progress either mental or physical.

In 2022 things are very much back to normal concerning the virus, we were lucky that our government reacted as it had.

Compared to most of the world we saw very few cases and minimal deaths from the delta strain that claims so many lives in other parts of the world.

However, we are now experiencing significantly large numbers of new Zealanders contracting the omicron variant.

As a healthcare professional l did have to increase my working hours in this field, which brought with it some personal stress and anxiety, as l worked in one of the larger public hospital in New Zealand, l saw and was involved in some positive patients coming through theatres for treatment.

Despite taking all the precautions to keep me safe from contracting the coronavirus, especially when a patient came in with the delta strain, it still caused me a lot of stress and anxiety.

What are the biggest lessons that you learned in this pandemic?

Live, for now, don’t be afraid of failure because at the end of failure is a lesson.

If you have a dream don’t dismiss it, embrace it, work towards it, give it your all.

There is someone else always worse off than yourself.

The Origin:

Tell us about you, your career, how you started with your coaching career?

I had my first taste of working in healthcare at the age of 7 when l joined the St John Ambulance.

l had a passion for learning how to help people and using those skills, it was a joy to see the gratitude on another person’s face for the help l had given them.

I left school at 16 and got a job in a nursing home for the elderly my passion was to become a nurse, it took me years to fulfil this passion, l had to attend night school and do several NVQs while carrying out my care work.

But l got there, l got excepted to train as a student nurse in my local hospital which was St Richards in Chichester and attend Guilford University at the age of 39.

I loved my nursing work in threat as an anaesthetic nurse and post anaesthetic care (PACU) nurse for many years it helped me fulfil another passion of living in another country and learning about different cultures.

That’s how my move to New Zealand took shape, it was to be a new start for me after the long breakup of my 25 year marriage.

I moved to New Zealand in 2007 alone not knowing a soul, the culture here was quite different from that what l was used to in the UK, but if l was to make this my home l would need to adjust which l did.

After 4 years of being a PACU in NZ, I decided l really missed the anaesthetic side of my career, so l did a 3 year university course to become an anaesthetic technician.

Going back to learning became a passion l had a thirst for knowledge especially for helping others, this took me on the journey to setting up my holistic therapy business, l trained to be a Reiki healer a Reflexologist and a massage therapist which led me to more courses for treatments that could assist a whole range of clients.

My turning point towards coaching was when l trained to be a hypnotherapist l loved the mindset effect clients went through during the initial questioning, they came up with their own answers and solutions l just needed to teach them how to put themselves in a deep enough state for their subconscious mind to kick in.

It was during my training be become a hypnotherapist that l found out more about coaching, and realised that l was already using most of the tools l needed to be an excellent coach.

As l am a believer in being sufficiently knowledgeable and undergoing training if it’s available, l enrolled in a diploma life coaching course with the New Zealand Institue Of Business Studies, and graduated with Excellence.

What was your biggest obstacle that you had to overcome in your life that made you who you are today?

I think the biggest obstacle I had to overcome was to accept the fact that my marriage was over, and that l didn’t love my husband as much as l used to.

It was excepting that it was ok for me to fail as a wife and partner.

That realisation took me a long time to come to terms with.

Probably because l had been brought up to believe in the sanctity of marriage and the old saying of “till death do we part”.

It wasn’t till l looked at the fact that my authentic self had died, that l had become a version of a person l didn’t recognise or really like, to live l needed to stop repeating old actions that didn’t bring me happiness, self confidence self worth or peace of mind.

The Coaching Style:

How do you innovate with coaching your clients?

I help my clients to find their own ways to change the things in life they no longer want or desire.

My coaching program is designed to help clients look at their lives as a whole, and what their body mind and soul require to bring in the balance needed for a happy fulfilled existence that allows them to live their best life.

A life with reduced stress and anxiety, one that they have control over, where they have the tools to change out of date beliefs or values that no longer hold true for them.

I offer my clients the skills to calm their body and mind when it’s in a state of anxiety or when they need some relaxation and peace, as well as tools to enhance their energies their mindset, their self confidence self worth and self belief.

I teach them breathing techniques for deeper relaxation, how to reset their mind and banish negative thoughts, and how to set their trigger switches to get out of physical or emotional pain.

They learn effective thinking to be able to set and plan goals that will assist them to move their life forward.

I use my hypnotherapy, neuro linguistic and executive state identity my life coaching, reiki, meditation and visualisation skills to assist clients to change their life into the life of their hopes and dreams to start living as their authentic selves.

What’s unique about your coaching approach?

I use a totally holistic approach that takes into account the client’s body mind and soul by using all my knowledge experience and skills as a qualified nurse, hypnotherapist, NLP and ESI practitioner, reiki master and energy healer.

And my wealth of personal life experience of dealing with a great number of stressful challenging such as divorce after 25 years of marriage, bring up two young boys on my own for several years, starting a new life in a new country, the loss of a parent during the pandemic and not being able to say goodby in person.

What benefits do your clients get after working with you?

My clients benefit by taking control of their lives which in turn helps them improve their health and wellbeing by addressing any issues or problems that might be causing them stress and anxiety depression or even worst total burnout or irreversible health problems.

They often find new meaning and purpose and the confidence to move forward to achieve their dreams or create newer bigger dreams, they create more freedom by allowing themselves the right to be who they want to be, to break the model of trying to be who they think others expect them to be, they become their true authentic selves.

Do you use any specific tools to be efficient with your clients?

1. Written Coaching instructions for homework relevant to the client’s requirements eg, Time management task record, then an analytics form to see where they could find better ways of using any wasted time.

2. Audio recorded meditation sessions.

3. 5, 15 or 30 minutes long 1 on 1 zoom coaching session.

4. Visualisation recordings specific for a client.

5. Access to my Online program course with lots of helpful information and techniques covers subjects such as mindset, visualisation training, time management, goal setting, dealing with stress anxiety, imposter syndrome, self sabotage and much more.

The Impact:

If you had a super megaphone that, when you speak into, the whole world will hear your message, what would you say?

Be you, live your life as your authentic self, not as you think others see and what you to be!

What is the greatest lesson you have learned in your life?

I have learned that if you look for the positive in every situation issue or problem you will come out the other side with a more knowledgeable and happier outlook on life.

But if you only ever look at things from a negative viewpoint you are denying your heart the love it deserves.

Your final thoughts?

I see it as a privilege and honor to have been asked to write a piece about my story of coaching and my journey as a holistic therapist and to have it published on Life Coaching Code, thank you so much Dejan for this opportunity.

Find Life Coach | Meet Suzanne Fensin: How to Find Your Soul’s Blueprint?

Suzanne Fensin is one of the coaches that we found this month and we did a little interview with her. She impressed us with her unique approach.

She sees potential where others don’t. She sees the best in people and helps them change their perspective to see the hidden greatness within.

We all have a special purpose for being here, and she helps her clients discover what that is.

She is using a little known and ancient process to help her clients connect with the sound codes in their name and align with their Soul Purpose in life. Here is what she said.

Meet Life Coach Suzanne Fensin:

find-life-coach-suzanne-fensin

Name: Suzanne Fensin

Pillar: The Spirit

Who is this coach for: Anyone who wants to find their Soul Blueprint and align with their true purpose in life.

How they can help: By using a secret technique to discover the sound codes in the client’s name that reveal their Soul Purpose in life.

First of all, how are you and your family doing in these Pandemic times?

My life was completely shaken as I had to completely re invent my business from personal 1 on 1 coaching to 100% online with both 1 on 1 and group coaching programs.

It was stressful with a steep learning curve and uncertainties, but my life is in a better place now.

How does the coronavirus pandemic affect your clients? Did it affect you at all?

I definitely saw an increase in confusion, fear, and depression amongst my clients.

I had my moments of confusion also, but I relied on my intuition and soul connection which helped me see the situation from a greater perspective, thus enabling me to use the time to build and grow and I encouraged this in my clients also.

What are the biggest lessons that you learned in this pandemic?

Always trust your intuition.

Don’t let others take your power.

The Origin:

Tell us about you, your career, how you started with your coaching career?

I have always been that person that total strangers feel comfortable sharing their personal stories.

There’s always so many treasures I love to see in that person’s experience.

I see potentials where others don’t, and I love to share what I see to shift their perspective and empower them to make the changes necessary to attain that soul level potential.

I had lived my life based on family and cultural expectations which were to be a corporate manager with the nice salary and benefits.

I was completely dis illusioned by the actual corporate experience.

My fellow employees were miserable, and they came to me for help.

I saw so much potential being wasted because they were bullied, weren’t given the opportunity to thrive in their jobs, and they felt they had little choice in changing their situation.

The heartbreak of working in dysfunctional companies and the desperation of fellow employees increased my stress to the point of complete collapse.

From that collapse, and a lot of self work to see that these situations were a mirror of my own not living up to my potential, I realized I was holding onto what was expected of me, and what was safe.

A big change was needed.

That realization opened space for synchronicities that aligned with this new potential.

My life became magical, and within a few weeks, I was led to a coaching certification program.

With a lot of courage, I left the corporate world to start my own coaching business and I found even more joy with helping clients see their own potential and claim their empowerment.

That was over 20 years ago and I’m still loving the richness and celebrating each success of seeing the light in my client’s eyes as they realize they are so much more than they had previously given themselves credit for, and then supporting them through the wobbly stage of standing up for their true selves and taking those steps through personal discovery and changing their lives, sometimes in very drastic ways.

What was your biggest obstacle that you had to overcome in your life that made you who you are today?

As a sensitive child, I shut down emotionally to survive a traumatic environment.

That shutting down set up intense stress, dysfunction and disease in my body, which ultimately contributed to my complete collapse.

This was a major energetic blockage which doctors couldn’t see on their scans and tests, so I had to learn why I was so sick and how to overcome this invisible illness.

It took years, and I’m still working on it, but with my own self growth comes synchronicities and tools that are greatly assisting this multi layered healing process.

The Coaching Style:

How do you innovate with coaching your clients?

To understand one’s life and their challenges and successes, I go directly to the individual’s soul plan or soul purpose.

The soul plan is the driving force of the potential so I utilize a little known and ancient process which connects the individual with the sacred sound codes in their name.

We all have these codes which represent our life purpose, the challenges we are here to work through, the talents we use to help transmute those challenges, and the goals our soul seeks for us to achieve in this lifetime.

This is the soul blueprint.

It is the unique solid foundation from which the individual can confidently build the life they desire.

What’s unique about your coaching approach?

Being seen and validated is important for my clients.

I have found that cookie cutter coaching programs don’t always address this need, so I discover what is most important for each and coach with a high degree of intuition, compassion, and nurturing, with an eye on their overall potential and soul plan.

What benefits do your clients get after working with you?

Validation and a whole new perspective of who they are, why they are here, and confidently moving forward to knowing and being comfortable with who they are and how to create their life with grace.

Do you use any specific tools to be efficient with your clients?

Discovering the sound codes in client’s names instantly gives a blueprint of that soul’s purpose which encompasses their challenges, talents and goals.

This opens the way to discover even more of what the client needs to be whole and discovering the best way to work with those needs to create the life they desire.

The Impact:

If you had a super megaphone that, when you speak into, the whole world will hear your message, what would you say?

Don’t be afraid to do the work to uncover your true self so you can thrive.

What is the greatest lesson you have learned in your life?

Set boundaries around toxic people and situations.

Trust and honor who you are at your core. If it doesn’t feel good, that’s your intuition telling you it’s not for you.

Your final thoughts?

Our world is changing rapidly in ways we can’t conceive of.

Having a coach to help you through navigating these changes is necessary.

We are all going to have to make even more pivots in the coming times, but to do that gracefully and with the vision it will take to create the world of our dreams, we will need to go within to discover our truth and clear our blockages.

When we focus on our own self work, that assists the collective make expansive jumps in consciousness which is what is needed now.

First of all, how are you and your family doing in these Pandemic times?

I am very well thank you and my family are also very well.

My family and I are thriving and that is all Grace

How does the coronavirus pandemic affect your clients? Did it affect you at all?

Okay the pandemic affected in both positive and negative ways.

But I choose to see the positive side of it.

Before the pandemic I was just living life, after the pandemic I am now living life with purpose and intentionality.

You see, one of the reason I got a wake up call was that I was very ill with the virus and I also lost a dear cousin to it and so, I had a wake up call that life was precious and you just never know when is your last day, it is important to live life on purpose.

And this is what I help my clients to see, to see the beauty and the gift that life is so as to unlock their greatness.

What are the biggest lessons that you learned in this pandemic?

That life is a gift… It’s a gift and I am so grateful for the gift of life.

The Origin:

Tell us about you, your career, how you started with your coaching career?

Okay this is a bit of scene in my life story that got me into coaching.

I was called into this work, in fact I never knew I was going to be a coach or anything.

I had a life transformational journey and realised I wanted to help more people be the best version of themselves.

For many years I suffered depression and was even suicidal.

I thought there was nothing to me and I had no idea what my life direction was, I was totally lost.

And so I was so depressed and all I wanted to do was just take my life.

Until one day like a friend reached out to me to attend a program called soar, which was were everything started to change for me.

I started to see that my purpose was in deed to serve others and encourage people.

I started to see who I was, and what I was and why I am , I realised that my purpose was to help people see the Eagle within them.

Suddenly I was called to empower, encourage and uplift other.

And so that was how I started coaching.

What was your biggest obstacle that you had to overcome in your life that made you who you are today?

I had to overcome depression and suicidal thoughts.

That was my biggest obstacle. The feeling of worthless and no purpose.

I found out that I was getting in my way and I had get out of my own way and be the best version of myself.

I stopped thinking of my own selfish thoughts and started to think about how I could serve others and make an impact by transforming the minds and lives of the people I work with.

The Coaching Style:

How do you innovate with coaching your clients?

Oh I am constantly innovating by listening to their needs.

You see, coaching is more that just setting goals for clients and making sure they achieve it, it is a deep connection d’or me.

I am an intuitive coach as I have a natural gift of inner wisdom which I use to help my clients.

So I work with them to get them to dig deeper into their spirit as their spirit knows all truth and is connected to the source of creation.

So I am very dynamic in my approach.

And I feel my clients love it because they come for a session asking to work on their Money issues but the spiritual intelligence that I have access to will tell me it was a relationship issue, and so I will gently direct my clients to the real issues they wanted to solve which was probably a relationship issue.

And so it is always amazing to see.

What’s unique about your coaching approach?

I Am unique in the sense that I am using spiritual intelligence to help elicit the information that my clients need.

I am also a psychodynamic psychotherapist in training and also NLP practitioner and EFT practitioner so I have all the right tools to work with my clients looking to unlock their purpose and potential locked up in them.

What benefits do your clients get after working with you?

They get to know who they are, what they are and why they are.

They get live a more transformed live and aim for bigger goals than they think possible.

4 Biggest Causes of Premature Aging to Watch Out For

We have all experienced it: a sudden ache in the back, a wrinkle, a new slang term you do not understand.

These things make you wonder, “When did I begin to appear so old?”

That is when you come to the period that follows: the “How the hell then do I make it stop?” stage.

4 Biggest Causes of Premature Aging:

Biggest Causes of Premature Aging

1. The Exposure to Sun.

Do not get us wrong, though. Daily exposure to sunlight can have a number of positive effects on our physical and mental health, but we do not need much of it to reap the rewards.

10 minutes is more than enough to meet our required vitamin D intake.

Without using adequate sun protection, anything beyond tends to leave your skin in danger of early aging and even cancer.

Common signs of aging: Dark Spots, Paper thin Skin, and Loose Skin.

One of the very common misunderstandings is that contact with the sun just results in thick, leathery skin, yet the contrary can occasionally be true.

Our skin’s suppleness can be damaged by too much sun exposure, making it either thin like tissue paper or thick like leather.

In addition, UV rays can degrade the skin’s collagen proteins, creating drooping or saggy skin, and they can speed up the creation of melanin, which provides the skin with its pigment and results in dark age spots.

Prevention:

Sunblock. We know, it is not the most thrilling response, particularly with a skin care industry worth multi billion dollars but the best defense against sun damage and early aging is using sunblock and other forms of sun protection.

Incorporating skin protection into your morning ritual is the simplest method to ensure that you are doing so.

It can be simple to integrate since many creams and makeup items have a 35 or more sun protection factor (SPF). Even apparel is available with SPF ratings.

Just keep in mind to protect your hands, they are simple to overlook yet might be one of the first places to show signs of aging.

2. Smoking.

The WHO (World Health Organization) has estimated smoking to be the leading cause of preventable sickness, disability, and death.

While the health benefits alone should be sufficient to discourage smoking, it is unquestionably not a good way to delay aging.

Common symptoms of aging: Undereye Bags, Wrinkles, Sagging Skin, Yellowing or Graying of the Skin, Thinning Hair, and Stained Teeth.

In addition to reducing your skin’s suppleness and strength, smoking can also cause your blood vessels to constrict and reduce the amount of oxygen that reaches your skin, which results in wrinkled but also sagging skin.

Although we do not generally think of our hair follicles’ DNA as a living thing, smoking’s toxic chemicals can harm this DNA and cause hair to turn gray, recede, or fall out completely.

The most common tobacco related chemical, nicotine, is also to blame for discolored skin and teeth, giving off the appearance of being more yellow and older.

In addition, this trustworthy dentist in Ocala FL shares that smoking can also cause other dental and oral issues such as gum diseases and oral cancer.

Prevention:

Just say no to smoking. That may be much simpler said than done for some people, but there are many tools available to assist people to kick the habit, such as the free smoking cessation program offered by MU Health Care.

Try to locate one or more that can support you and match your demands.

This does not differ from seeking help for any kind of addiction you develop because there are programs for most of them, even for the gambling addiction (in case you go from, say, stress free sports betting to compulsive gambling), with top offshore betting sites having their sites’ sections dedicated to this problem.

3. Loud Noise Exposure.

Long term exposure to loud stimuli is typically not something that a lot of people think about until they begin to see its detrimental impacts on their hearing.

Although these are typically the first things that come to mind when loud noises are mentioned, loud noises from vacuuming, movie theaters, lawnmowers, and boats should also be included.

Common sign of aging: Loss of Hearing.

Our ears’ tiny hair cells that transmit sound to our brains can be harmed by exposure to loud noise.

The fewer hairs we have, the poorer our hearing will be since once such hairs are broken, they cannot grow back.

Prevention:

When dealing with any prolonged decibels that are louder than a normal conversation, be cautious to protect your ears by donning earplugs or other protective equipment.

Before using headphones to listen to music, quickly check to determine whether the volume has become too high.

Keep your earphones far enough away from your ears as you can whilst music is playing.

It is too loud if you can still hear the music.

4. Stress.

Whether it is the more evident physical tension or the more subtly mental stress, stress has an interesting way of impacting our bodies.

Short term impacts of stress include an increase in your focus and energy.

When was the last occasion you had a pressing deadline to meet? Did your adrenaline rush help you do it?

Even while uncomfortable, occasional moments of stress are not harmful.

Chronic, long term stress can deplete our bodies and speed up the aging process.

Common signs of aging: Loss of Memory, an Aging Immune System, and Hypertension.

According to research, the hormones created by prolonged stress might weaken our immune systems and cause cognitive decline.

People who are under a lot of stress have greater rates of loss of memory and dementia, as well as more immune system cells that have been destroyed.

Stress can result in high blood pressure which increases your risk of developing heart disease as well as other disorders that are more common in older people.

Prevention:

Mindfulness is the key to stress management.

Regularly try to relax your thoughts by engaging in practices like meditation or yoga.

Reach out for assistance if you are feeling overburdened by your to do list, and designate the tasks that can be skipped.

Finding the positive in every circumstance is another technique to lessen stress.

You can do this by composing a list of, say, three items for which you are grateful or by finding a bright side to every dark idea you have.

Being social with friends, exercising, or just going outside for a walk are all excellent stress reduction techniques.

Despite the social distancing I feel closer to humanity as a whole.

It’s also forced me out of my own comfort zone, learning new technology and innovating ways to teach and counsel clients virtually versus in person sessions.

What are the biggest lessons that you learned in this pandemic?

Staying grounded in my personal power and keeping my own “cup filled” with a daily spiritual practice. So that I have what to give and to offer others.

Love forgives, unconditionally, and in that it can heal the world, one heart, one life, one soul at a time.

Learning to love and accept ourselves and our own human imperfections allows us more compassion in relating to our fellow souls.

Divine Love empowers us all as it contributes to raising the consciousness of the whole planet.

What is the greatest lesson you have learned in your life?

Less “doing” (ego) and more “being” (authenticity).

But we first have to discover “who” we really are and what our unique gift (light) is so that we can share it with the world.

Your final thoughts?

I’ve been an Energy Alchemist for decades now, it’s shown me many truths.

Mainly what I’ve seen and what I’ve learned is that we each come with a path to follow in life.

We are given challenges, and helpers, tools and opportunities for our soul growth.

Love and Wisdom are the only remembrances we carry with us into the next incarnation.

In this we gain wisdom and understanding that can lead us to enlightenment.

After many lifetimes we may choose to experience life on another level, a different dimension or plane of existence.

So BE the Energy you wish to see around you.

3 Things You Should Know About Relationships with Slavic brides After Age of 40?

The forty years is quite a difficult milestone for many men, accompanied by a total revision of life goals and achievements. During 40 to 60 years, they face acute dissatisfaction with life, regret about their choices, thoughts of approaching old age, and death. 

During this period, even the family life of a man can crack. Many families break up because of the gap between husband and wife. Spouses are self realized and work hard, their children have already grown up and no longer require as much attention as before. At this point, they realize that they have little in common, and the crisis makes itself felt, the husband is nervous, and the wife cannot or doesn’t want to help him cope with depression. 

If you are one of those who came out of a middle crisis divorced man, don’t despair. Everything is in your hands! After 40 years, a conscious, mature life begins, which you want to spend fully, without looking back at the prejudices of youth. You no longer care whether your relatives condemn you or not, you want to enjoy life. You have every right to do so.
