EFT saved me from a life of anxiety.

I used to have severe anxiety around talking to people and especially talking on the phone.

I had to make a decision, stay afraid and have a hard time living life, being a mom and getting a job, or figure out how to get over my fears and anxiety.

My anxiety was so bad that I couldn’t even phone to order pizza for my kids, I was so embarrassed.

The decision was made, I would get over it no matter what I had to do!

I did the only thing that made sense at the time. Just look my fear in the face and pretend it wasn’t there.

So… I got a job at a very busy call centre for one of the city support programs.

I was terrified! How was this going to work?

Training went well, it was with one person and didn’t involve actually being on the phone at the beginning.

I thought I would be fine, I knew how to use the programs, I knew what to say. I remember telling my trainer once I started on the phone… if I’m silent when the caller comes on just give me a minute, I’m terrified and I need my training to kick in, but don’t worry, it will.

Truely, I was so far from fine that I cried every day as I drove to work and I had IBS and uncontrollable shaking.

To get over it I did the only thing I knew, I tapped as I drove to work.

If you pulled up beside me you would have seen a sobbing woman tapping on her collar bones and talking to herself.

I was a mess, but I was determined to get past this fear and anxiety.

I cried and tapped and talked as I drove, then I would get to work and go to the washroom to get myself cleaned up for my shift.

This went on for a few months, then one day I noticed I hadn’t tapped in a while, that I felt good.

When did that happen?

For me, that’s the magic of tapping. Things just shift, you feel better, you do better without having to continuously and consciously think about it.

By giving the fears and upsets a voice and tapping through them I was able to release it.

Message me if you’d like to find out more. I’d love to share the transformative magic of EFT with you.

Habit tracking is powerful for three reasons:
1. It creates a visual cue that can remind you to act.
2. It is motivating to see the progress you are making. You don't want to break your streak.
3. It feels satisfying to record your success in the moment.

Seven benefits of keeping a journal:
1. Achieve goals. When you use your journal to write down your goals, you can keep track of your intentions.
2. Track progress and growth.
3. Gain self-confidence.
4. Improve writing and communication skills.
5. Reduce stress and anxiety.
6. Find inspiration and stream of consciousness.
7. Strengthen memory.

What way do you practice self-love and reflection?

When you focus on your fears and worries, you're focusing on what you don't want and you'll find yourself wandering, unsure of where you're going.

Focus on where you want to go and you'll know what steps to take. Imagine and feel the feeling of already having it.

Have you ever written or said a positive affirmation and it just didn't feel good, safe or true for you?

I know I have. In fact, I used to find myself scoffing internally after saying them, thinking “yeah right, like that’ll ever happen!”

It would leave me feeling hopeless and down, or would have my heart racing and my anxiety rising when I’d say them.

It's when my mind starts to race and my body starts to react that I know I need to shift the words I’m saying to myself to make them feel true in my mind and body now. To help bridge the gap between where I am and where I want to be.

If you find yourself feeling disconnected from your desires when you say your affirmations, try starting your positive suggestions with one of these (I love, I choose, I decide… etc).

Starting your suggestions this way helps open up your subconscious mind to the possibilities of your affirmation being true now, so you feel less of that icky resistance.

These are just a few of my go-to affirmations:

I love… it when everything works out for me, as if by magic!

I choose… to be happy now, in every moment.

I decide… to move forward one step at a time, knowing that my best path will always unfold before me in perfect timing.

I forgive… myself for not doing better even though I knew better.

I serve… the most amazing community and clients.

I feel… grateful for all of the wonderful people and experiences I have in my life.

And my favourite, that has manifested multiple trips and other opportunities into my life within a matter of weeks is:

I create the possibility of… working with the most amazing soul-mate clients every single week.

The key to positive suggestions and affirmations is the feelings they bring up.

Find the words that help you feel empowered.

Find the words that are easy for you to believe and embody now.

Find the words that feel good and open up the next step on the path to your desires.

Open your mind and heart as you expand the possibilities of being, doing, having and receiving more than you ever imagined.

Does the phrase ""just be yourself" make you puke in your mouth a little bit?

If I told you that I discovered a secret that let me "just be me" and allowed me to love myself...
.. without worrying about what other people think of me and creating a cascade of change and possibilities
.. would you be interested?

Write BE ME if you are curious about the secret to embracing all of yourself that no one else is talking about.

I woke up a few minutes early today and did some stretching before starting my day.

Establishing the habit of morning exercise again one step at a time.

What have you done today that your future self will thank you for?

"How you love yourself is how you teach others to love you."

I came across this quote today and it got me thinking about what self-love is and how it shows up in my life.

For me, loving yourself whole-heartedly and objectively means:
- you know your own strengths and weaknesses
- you validate your own emotions
- you value your emotional and mental health
- you embrace your imperfections
- you prioritize your needs
- you forgive yourself and learn from past mistakes
- you show up for you

I didn't always love myself, and it wasn't something that changed overnight.

The more loving kindness I showed myself, the more I healed the past and released the limiting beliefs I had been holding on to, the easier it was to experience the benefits of self-love.

Now self-love is simply a part of who I am and I wouldn't dare go back. This is so much better!

This picture shows just a few of the benefits of self-love and how it has impacted my life and the lives of my beautiful clients.

Now I'd love to hear from you...

In what areas do YOU feel stuck when it comes to self-love?

And who would YOU get to be if you made the decision to change that?

I used to struggle with overwhelm and often felt like my energy and attention was stretched or scattered. It would leave me feeling like I was going no-where fast.

Then I added a few mindfulness practices to my day and it helped me to feel calmer and more productive while improving my headspace.

These are a few ways I was able to add mindfulness to my day.

What do you do to practice mindfulness?

I thought it was just me.

I mean, logically I always knew I’m not the only one who has ever experienced Overthinking, but it felt like I was on my own.

Getting stuck in your own head will do that to you. Make you feel isolated and alone.

Turns out I’m not alone, many people have reached out to say they’re inspired to break up with Overthinking too.

Since my journey began I’ve come to realize that letting go of Overthinking was one of the best things I’ve done for myself and also one of the hardest.

One thing that has worked for me to help get Overthinking out the door quickly is to stop and WAIT.

I ask myself: Why Am I Thinking?

Sometimes it’s because I genuinely need answers or ideas, and other times it’s because Overthinking has settled in.

WAITing has helped me recognize if I’m thinking with a purpose and end in mind OR thinking because Overthinking has it’s hold on me, keeping me stuck in a loop of fear and uncertainty.

Being aware that Overthinking is present allows me to make a choice.

1. I could spend my time Overthinking.
2. I can thank Overthinking for doing its best at trying to keep me safe, then remind it to go because, although Overthinking worked in the past, it’s not for me anymore.

I then choose to be gentle on myself and take action to move from fear or uncertainty into a calmer, safer place that lets me keep going with ease.

The more you love yourself the more you get what you want.

I didn’t see it coming.

When I ended things with Overthinking, Procrastination left too.

I knew that they were close. I knew that where one went the other often followed, but I somehow didn’t see how connected they really were.

It’s amazing how much easier things have been with Overthinking and Procrastination out of the picture.

I’ve been able to think clearly, make decisions and take action quickly.

No point in wishing I would have ended it with Overthinking sooner. I’m guessing I just wasn’t ready for the ripple that one change was going to make in my life.

I believe that everything happens in perfect timing and I wonder what’s possible with my new found freedom.

03/07/2022

It’s ok to feel the fear and discomfort. It’s part of the growth process.

We’re breaking up. I just can’t go on like this.

Do you have a habit that feels like an old friend but you know they aren’t good for you?

That friend that you want to break up with but you’ve been together for so long you’re not sure who you’d be or what you’d do without them?

For me that old friend is Overthinking.

Me and Overthinking go way back. I mean way, way, way back. Back as far as I can remember.

Overthinking and me have become one, joined-at-the-hip so to speak, where Terri goes Overthinking is always right there with her.

Overthinking became a part of my identity that made things harder, not easier for me.

I get it. Overthinking meant well, they just didn’t do well.

Overthinking meant well when they kept me feeling stuck and feeling afraid to do anything new or different.

They meant well when they would ‘talk’ me into staying small, quiet and invisible because they thought that was keeping me safe or would make other people happy.

Don’t get me wrong, we’ve had a lot of fun together, me and Overthinking. We’d often get lost in my imagination of amazing possibilities while never getting out of my comfort zone because Overthinking insisted it wasn’t safe, it wasn’t going to make other people happy or it just wasn’t for me.

After much soul searching, I have made the decision to end my relationship with Overthinking and move forward with building new relationships with Action, Adventure and Fun.

I’m sure Overthinking will visit sometimes and I know I don’t have to let them stay. I’ll be ready to see them on their way again quickly so I can get back to Action, Adventure and Fun, and any other new friends I make along the way.

It feels scary to say goodbye to Overthinking. We’ve been together for so long that I’m not sure who I will be without them, but I’m looking forward to finding out and sharing my experience with you along the way!

If you’ve ever broken up with a feels-like-a-friend habit that just wasn’t right for you I’d love to hear about it. I find so much inspiration in other peoples successes.

What habit was it?

How did you break-ties?

What new and wonderful friends and things have you experienced because you parted ways?

Tell me all the things! I’m so curious.

EFT, or tapping, is one of my favourite ways to shift my energy quickly.

Tapping is a therapeutic healing tool based on the same meridian system used in traditional acupuncture.

Rather than using needles, EFT is performed by you tapping with your fingers on these meridian points, while speaking or thinking about a feeling or issue you want to shift and resolve.

Tapping while tuning into the problem breaks the energetic connection and releases the blockages.

EFT helps with physical, emotional and mental issues as well as goal setting and achievement.
