Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) doesn't have to be a part of YOUR autumn or holidays.
A shift takes a second or however long you give it, but change your perspective.
The season is NOT the reason.

The holidays can be a wonderful and stressful time. ☃️✈️💰

You've got all the events, and dinners to plan, cook, and or attend, and FAMILY.
Maybe you all get along well, or perhaps there's this underlining tension that's never quite gotten resolved. 😵‍💫

In any case, coupled with the mental taxation we create, then there's the EATING.
Whether it's all the events, dinners, and emotional eating if you don't watch it, another 5-10 lbs will be on your frame come January 1st. 😂

Although I'm happy to help with the mental, I'm also now launching a weight-loss component to my business. 💥👩‍⚕️

Kind words from a past coaching client:

"Very professional without sacrificing that personal and friendly feeling. Took the time to listen and ask clarification questions in order to better understand and subsequently provide help. I don't have much to compare to, but the experience set a high standard I don't think will be met." - Chris A.

Mentors, advisors, coaches, counselors, therapists, etc., all come from a wide array of backgrounds, careers, and expertise.

No matter the age, wisdom comes from hard lessons learned.
If you need some guidance personally or professionally seek out a coach or mentor of some sort.

It may be the best step you ever took.

In my experience, the past should be used as a guide for navigating your present.

It shouldn't be used as an anchor or crutch for limiting behaviors, actions,😊 and negative thoughts in the now.

When I was younger there wasn't the level of Personal Development/Self Help tools, books and speakers there is today.
One of the first books I read on the subject back in the day was this man's work.

M. Scott Peck was an American psychiatrist and best-selling author who wrote several books on psychology and spirituality, including The Road Less Traveled and People of the Lie. His books have sold over 60 million copies worldwide and have been translated into over 30 languages.

Peck's work is characterized by its focus on the importance of self-awareness, personal growth, and spiritual development. He believed that the path to a meaningful and fulfilling life is one that is characterized by love, courage, and discipline.
So true!

Here are some insights from Peck's books: 📚

✨ The road less traveled is the one that leads to growth and transformation. The easy path is often the one that leads to mediocrity and stagnation. If we want to grow and change, we need to be willing to take the road less traveled.

✨ We all have the capacity for both good and evil. It is up to us to choose which side of our nature we will express. We can choose to be loving, compassionate, and kind, or we can choose to be selfish, cruel, and destructive.

✨ We all need to face our shadow side. Our shadow side is the part of ourselves that we repress or deny. It is the part of ourselves that we are afraid of or ashamed of. If we want to grow and heal, we need to face our shadow side and integrate it into our personality.

✨ Love is the most powerful force in the universe. Love is the force that can heal, transform, and unite us. It is the force that can make the world a better place.

✨ We are all connected. We are all part of the same human family. We are all connected to each other and to the universe. We need to remember this connection and act accordingly.

Peck's work and lessons are still a valuable resource for me, and for anyone who is seeking to grow, change, and connect with the divine.

In today's competitive business environment, it's more important than ever for employees to be at their best. That's where life coaches can help.

A life coach can help employees identify their strengths and weaknesses, set goals, and develop strategies for achieving them. In addition, a life coach can provide support and guidance during times of change or challenge.

Here are some of the ways having a corporate life coach can improve the company environment:

🏦 Increased productivity: When employees are feeling good about themselves and their work, they're more likely to be productive. A life coach can help employees identify and overcome any obstacles that are preventing them from reaching their full potential.

🏦 Improved job satisfaction: When employees feel like they're making a difference and their work is meaningful, they're more likely to be satisfied with their jobs. A life coach can help employees find ways to connect their personal values to their work, which can lead to improved outcomes on many levels.

🏦 Reduced stress: The average American worker experiences 54 hours of stress per week. A life coach can help employees learn how to manage this, which can lead to improved health and mental well-being.

🏦 Increased engagement: When employees are engaged in their work, they're more likely to be productive and creative. A life coach can help employees find ways to be more connected in their work, which can lead to better results for the company.

🏦 Improved communication: Effective communication is essential for success in any workplace. A life coach can help employees improve their communication skills, which can lead to better relationships with colleagues and clients.

🏦 Increased confidence: A life coach can help employees build their confidence and self-esteem, which can lead to greater success in all areas of life.

If you're looking for ways to improve your employees' performance, consider offering life coaching as a benefit. It's an investment that can pay off big time.

Although I identify as "Other Hispanic" 😂 here are five fun facts about Cinco De Mayo:

🌮 Cinco de Mayo is not Mexico's Independence Day. That holiday is celebrated on September 16th. Cinco de Mayo commemorates the Mexican army's victory over the French Empire at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.

🌮 Cinco de Mayo is not a federal holiday in Mexico. It is a regional holiday celebrated primarily in the state of Puebla.
Cinco de Mayo is a much bigger deal in the United States than it is in Mexico. It is often celebrated with parades, festivals, and food and drink specials.

🌮 The most popular food associated with Cinco de Mayo is Mexican beer. However, there are many other traditional Mexican foods that are also enjoyed on this day, such as tacos, enchiladas, and mole.

🌮 Cinco de Mayo is a time to celebrate Mexican culture and heritage. It is a day to learn more about Mexico and its people and to enjoy the many things that make Mexico unique.

As a person who has had her fair share of therapy, counseling and coaching, I wanted to break this down for those who ask "What's the difference between a therapist and a life coach?"

Here are five ways a life coach can be better than a therapist:

⭐ Life coaches are more focused on the future. While therapists can help you understand your past and present, life coaches are more focused on helping you achieve your goals and live the life you want.

⭐ Life coaches are more action-oriented. Therapists can help you understand your thoughts and feelings, but life coaches can help you take action and make changes in your life.

⭐ Life coaches are more positive. Therapists can help you deal with your problems, but life coaches can help you focus on your strengths and potential.

⭐ Life coaches can be more affordable. Therapy can be expensive, but life coaching is often more affordable.

⭐ Life coaches are more accessible. Therapists often have long wait lists, but life coaches are often more available.

It's important to remember that both therapists and life coaches can be helpful. The best choice for you will depend on your individual needs and goals.

Here are some additional things to consider when choosing between a therapist and a life coach:

⭐ Your goals. What do you want to achieve with your coaching? If you're looking for help with specific problems, such as anxiety or depression, a therapist may be a better option. If you're looking for general help with personal development, a life coach may be a better option.

⭐ Your personality. Some people prefer the more structured environment of therapy, while others prefer the more flexible and collaborative environment of coaching.

⭐ Your budget. Therapy can be expensive, while coaching is often more affordable

If you're not sure which type of professional is right for you, it's a good idea to talk to both a therapist and a life coach.

This will give you a chance to learn more about their approach and see which one you feel more comfortable with.

Here are three ways to redirect anxious thoughts:

💢 Breathe deeply. When we're anxious, our breathing becomes shallow and rapid. This can actually make us feel more anxious. Taking a few deep breaths can help to slow our heart rate and calm our nervous system.

💢 Focus on the present moment. When we're anxious, we tend to ruminate on the past or worry about the future. This can make it difficult to enjoy the present moment. Taking a few minutes to focus on our surroundings can help us to ground ourselves in the here and now.

💢 Do something enjoyable. When we're anxious, it's important to do something that makes us feel good. This could be anything from listening to music to spending time with loved ones. Engaging in enjoyable activities can help to take our minds off of our worries and boost our mood.

It's important to remember that everyone experiences anxiety differently.

What works for one person may not work for another. If you're struggling with anxiety, it's important to find what works best for you.

You may want to talk to a therapist, life coach or counselor who can help you develop coping mechanisms for dealing with anxiety. 💚

I love learning, and different languages is something I'm always striving to educate myself on. (I always wanted to be a translator.) 🤩

Those of you who are bilingual, trilingual or polyglots, I came across this interesting article on people who speak more than one language.
Enjoy!

Learning multiple languages may change the structure of your brain.

When you're constantly in a negative state of mind, NO ONE wants to hear it's their fault for being in that state.

As humans it feels better to blame someone or something else.

Until you decide YOU are in control of everything you think about, you will feel victimized by everything and everyone.

Doing the work to get out of this mindset can be as easy as ONE decision.

Stay in your comfort yet uncomfortable zone OR do the hard work to improve.
Your move.

P**n use in a relationship can be a double-edged sword.

If done with proper communication, mutual respect and setting boundaries it can be a great tool for enhancing things in the bedroom. 🤯

Abuse it and it can ruin a great many relationships and place unrealistic expectations on the partner.

Here's a few ways too much po*******hy can be detrimental to a relationship.

1) Decreased intimacy and emotional connection: Excessive p**n use can lead to unrealistic expectations of s*x.

2) Decreased s*xual satisfaction: Excessive p**n use can lead to comparing fantasy with one's partner, as it creates a need for more intense and extreme s*xual experiences.

3) Reduced attraction to partner: Excessive p**n use can reduce attraction to one's partner, as the brain becomes desensitized to s*xual stimuli.

4) Difficulty achieving arousal in males. Excessive p**n use can cause difficulty achieving or maintaining an er****on, known as p**n-induced erectile dysfunction.

5) Decreased trust and communication: P**n use can lead to a partner feeling "less than", creating feelings of betrayal and making it difficult to connect on a deeper level.

If you find yourself in the above situation, it's ok to seek professional help to save your relationship and yourself.

If I had a dollar for every time I heard the word "anxiety" I could buy a retirement home in Italy.

I'm not a therapist or counselor, and some of you are not going to like this, but anxiety doesn't "happen" to you.

YOU make it happen with your thoughts.

This has been said a million times in a million different ways, and having had panic and anxiety attacks before in my life, I know it was what I was focusing on at the time.
Not someone else or something else, but ME.

In any case, I'll let someone smarter educate you a bit on the subject matter with this quick article.

I've been divorced 6 years now.

I've been living on my own for almost 4 years and I can attest to being the happiest I've ever been.

Some women I know over 50 are still trying to find husband number 2, 3 or 4.
Some men over 50 would like to be wed again.

I found this Psychology Today article enlightening. 🧐

Perhaps if you're in the same over 50 demographic and flying solo, you might enjoy it too.

In the US, women are especially unlikely to re-partner if they divorce after 50.
