To A Special Person:

 

Sometimes you just wonder what all it is about

Why we do the things we do

Say the things we say

Go to the places we go

Live through what we experience

 

Why do we need to be "good"?

What is good anyway?

Who decided what is good and what is bad?

What considers to be right and what is wrong

Many times I observed wrongs turning to be right;

Just right actually, even perfect...

So what is it then?

 

Do we need to judge and condemn?

Analyze, criticize, and blame?

 

Every time a judgment passes through your mind

Recognize it.

Ask yourself, "Is this really about them?"

 

What is it in you that you fight against so hard?

What scares you?

What are you trying to hide?

Until there is nothing to hide

Until there is complete peace within

There will be judging others...

There will be criticizing.

 

Change the beliefs in the core of your fears

Soften your heart and let it go

Relax so that you can release and heal

Allow yourself to enjoy every moment

Because only then you will be at peace.

Here I go, becoming a beginner again on something new. I started teaching Yoga at two places last month. One is a gym and the other one is a Wellness Center. Very different environments; completely different students. 

 

I was wondering about my pattern of continuously going into new things in the recent years and keep creating new challenges for myself instead of practicing the same things for years like most people do.  I realized that every new thing I wanted to learn came from a strong desire to find a solution to address a challenge that I saw either in myself or my clients...which is basically the same. At some point it becomes crystal clear that the more you explore and understand yourself, the better you become at helping others. The wider and deeper you go, the healthier you get. When you are completely immersed in guiding others in healing themselves; one way or the other, you heal yourself during the process. If there is no change in you along the way, then you are not actually helping others transform but maybe creating brief periods of relief.

 

Don't be afraid to try new things. It doesn't take away the things you already know and do. Just because others know you for one thing that you do, it does not mean that you are only THAT. You could be anything you want.This I call true SHAPE SHIFTING!

 

Every new thing adds to you and helps you blossom more in everything else you do.

Robert Smith is a fantastic man who came up with his version of EFT, which he calls Fast EFT.  I like his approach and the technique seems to be working. He has many videos on different issues- and I found one he did in

 

            

                        Istanbul, Turkey!

 

Here is a link to the video of introduction to his technique.

 

If you already know EFT, you will be able to understand and follow it very easily. If you don't know what EFT is, you can either:

 

Go to  Gary Craig's website and download the original free manual and read that first or

 

Open your mind and just follow Robert's instructions.

 

WATCH, FEEL and HEAL!
