As school starts, I am reminded of the good ol’ days when I took the kids individually shopping for school clothes. We had such a good time one on one shopping and having lunch, chatting and connecting. Now my kids are adults with their own kids taking them school clothes shopping. I remember loving those years and never wanting them to grow up. I also remember the times they chose to do things that scared me and made me nervous. In every way I wanted each of our kids to follow their heart, their passion and be independent. There were times as a parent the hardest thing to do was to allow them to be who they wanted to be.

We taught our first online Art of Listening Class this past month. It was fun. I was reminded by those who were in the class of the difficulty that presents when children want to be independent and yet you see and hear the call for help behind their actions.

I remember when our son was a drummer in a rock band, at age 18 he started touring the country playing shows all over the US. It was his passion; I was not going to stop him. He wanted that independence and the dream. I was a mother on call. I didn’t have a beeper, but I was there on the other end of the phone to listen to his stories, mishaps, accidents, joys and find hotel rooms at 1:00 AM in an unfamiliar city. He grew and got stronger in his convictions. If I had it my way I would have had him stay home but he would not be who he is today if I did. He now has a son of his own who was born with a disability. His desires for his son are not the desires he has and now it is his turn to allow his son to live his life, passions and loves. The circle of life and love continues to go on.

One of our students has an adult son who was recently disabled. She and he are learning a whole new way of listening to each other. He is still an adult and wants as much independence as possible and she is back in the mothering protecting caretaking role. Learning to listen to what the person wants may be as simple as asking “What do you want from me?” “How can I help you best?” If you automatically respond to others from what you want for them, you are not listening. You are giving them what you want, not what they want. It’s a tough lesson with kids, spouses, coworkers, friends and family members. Try listening without an agenda, without a need to save, protect or fix. It may surprise you at the response you will get.

We have recorded 6 videos in the Art of Listening. It's a great deal and will make a big difference in your relationships. The better listener you are, the happier your life will be.

“To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you." Lewis B. Smedes

Forgiveness is a journey of releasing the burdens that weigh us down and embracing a future of peace and freedom. It's not about forgetting the past but about freeing yourself from its hold on you.

When we forgive, we release anger, resentment, and bitterness, making room for healing and growth. It's an act of self-love and courage that allows us to move forward with a lighter heart and a clearer mind. Whether you're forgiving others or yourself, forgiveness can transform your life, opening up new possibilities and bringing inner peace.

On National Forgiveness Day, reflect on those you need to forgive, including yourself. Open your heart and release the chains that bind you. The journey may be difficult, but the freedom it brings is worth it.

I'm excited to invite you to explore tools that help you heal and grow through the practice of forgiveness. This isn't just about moving past old grievances; it's about creating a new foundation for joy and resilience in your life.

Our Forgiveness Course is expertly designed to guide you through personal challenges and lead you toward a life of greater fulfillment and happiness.

Watch the class, complete the exercises, and see the healing process start. Let me know how it goes.

Steve and I met 45 years ago in a graduate class on communications that I was teaching. He was one of my students, and he took the class to fulfill a job requirement. I must admit, I think I had a little crush on him, but he was my student. After class, he asked me out, and the rest is history.

Today is Global Forgiveness Day, a wonderful opportunity for everyone to reflect on the power of forgiveness. To celebrate, we are excited to offer our Online Forgiveness Class at a special sale price, starting today!

Why choose forgiveness? Forgiveness offers freedom. It brings peace. When you've taken offense at something or someone, it might be an inanimate object or a person who's already passed away. It could be an experience, an event, or something that keeps replaying in your mind on repeat. You can't stop reliving it. If that's the case, then forgiveness is what will help you heal. I use it daily for my own healing, and I include it in my sessions with clients because when you forgive, you let go and release.

Standing in the Unknown. I love making plans for my life. I have a vision board with dreams and visions for the future. I plan my meals weekly because I am a cook and make dinner nightly. I plan trips, parties, and I have a calendar that I follow daily. Sometimes those plans change. I have learned that God has a plan that may be different from mine. What I am saying is to make plans and also know that God may have something else planned for you. Planning and preparedness are important, don't get me wrong. A few years ago we did get a trust and a will prepared by an attorney so our children won’t have to deal with issues when the time comes that we leave this planet. It can be disrupting and upsetting when plans get changed because you want it to happen the way you want it to happen.

About ten years ago my daughter, her husband and I had a trip planned to go to the Philippines for a week and from there we would go to China to meet my students. My daughter was barely pregnant and not feeling great but she managed to still enjoy the trip. We had a wonderful trip in the Philippines, met some amazing people and helped some of them in need after the storm ‘Yolanda’. One afternoon while there she was feeling really sick so we went to a little grocery store to find something she could eat to feel better. We met an American woman while shopping. After visiting with her for a few minutes we found out she was from our same hometown in Arizona and only lived about 5 minutes from our home. We made a new friend, and she invited us to her home to rest in the air conditioning and cooked us a meal. My daughter was able to rest, eat and felt better. We exchanged numbers and went back to our hotel. Her closing remarks were, “If you need anything while you are here, please call.” As our trip came to an end, the next day we were at the airport to check into our flight to China. When we checked in the woman said my daughter and her husband could not go because they did not have a Visa. We looked at each other in shock and sat down and cried. We started calling the Embassy, but it was closed. We looked for every option we could to get them a Visa fast. It wasn’t going to work. We both cried as I left them at the airport and got on my plane to China. She called the woman we met earlier from Arizona and she stayed with her a few days until she got her flights rearranged to go home. Wow, that was not what we planned. It created quite an upset for both of us. We were so disappointed. As it turned out it was for the best. She was having some complications with her pregnancy and needed to get home earlier.

This example is one of many experiences that have taught me that we have to stand in ‘not knowing’ what God's plan is for us and trust that where He is leading is where we are to be. I call this Faith, and I have learned to let the change of plans be my constant guide because I am not in charge; God is. I do know that when one door closes another one opens.

We have had a number of students and clients that have found out about Muscle Testing Academy and the work we do by whatever means God led them to us. It is a spiritual work that changes lives for the better. It changes what we think about the past and it creates transformation and hope for the future. It gives freedom and peace. It is remarkable what Forgiveness can do to solve life's toughest problems.

If you have even considered attending the Muscle Testing Academy, don’t put it off. Join us on July 17-18 for our Basic Muscle Testing Academy class. Please reach out to Steve and Joyce for more information.

Look forward to seeing you there as a first-time attendee or returnee.

Wishing you joy and love at this time,
Steve and Joyce Brinton

Happy June! Are you asking yourself the same question I am asking myself; “How is it the month of June already?” The past five months seem to have passed quickly. A lot has been happening and there's a lot more to happen. Has the past five months been happy for you? Do you recognize happiness if it was that way for you?

When you are on the path of personal growth you might look for the unhappy moments so you can create ways to fix it. Sometimes you might see the unhappy moments quicker than the happy ones. It is just as important to see the happy times as well as the unhappy ones. There are also times when you may not be able to abide in the happy moments for very long because you are so used to being unhappy that happiness is foreign.

You might think that is crazy, but I have worked with many clients who can’t seem to abide and sustain joy for very long because they are so familiar with unhappiness, sadness, drama, and upsets. The joyful moments are fleeting because they are looking for what is going to happen next to take the joy away.

Take a moment to see and even write down the happy moments you have experienced in the past five months. What was it that brought you joy? It can even be the orange blossoms, or a rose that blooms, or a baby being born. Whatever that is, recognize it and remind yourself that there have definitely been happy times in the past five months. As you do this you will find it easier to see these times in the second half of the year.

I can name the busy times and the stressful times, but my favorite times to remember are the joyful ones. See where you have had joy in this first half of the year 2025.

We experience joy every time someone's life is transformed in a session or in class. If you are looking for transformation, attend our next Muscle Testing Academy Basic course, you will experience joy in your growth.

If you would, share with me a couple of those joyful, happy moments from the last 5 months. Just click ‘reply’ and share :)

Wishing you joy and love at this time,
Steve and Joyce Brinton
