Recession Repellent (Have a Spray or Two)

2 Comments

First a quick disclosure: That title is from Mark Joyner, bestselling author and creator of Simpleology: The Simple Science of Getting What You Want. It’s from an email he just sent out this morning (May 12th). But if you read my previous post on the Burning Ring of Fire, you know I’ve been on a “coincidence” kick lately, so I had to share his email with you. But first a bit of background.

You probably also know that I’m getting ready to start the Energetics of Attraction 6-week teleseminar series: Basic Energy Awareness Skills for Deliberate Creators.

What you don’t know is that enrollment is going slower than I expected. Right now there are about half the number of people registered for the program than I had originally envisioned.

Now in the first few days after I opened the registration I was a bit concerned (more about that in a moment). But thanks to some great conversations with some of my leading edge, Deliberate Creator friends, I’m no longer concerned. And in fact, because of these conversations I’ve put a cap on the program enrollment and there are just 6 spaces left.

Here’s why I’m not worried:

First, people are notoriously last minute when it comes to signing up for programs like this and it’s likely that several more people will join us by the time the program begins on Wednesday (May 14th).

Second, even if no one else signs up, there are enough participants to create a vibrant, dynamic group of people interested in learning how to use their personal energy systems to accelerate their ability to create an awesome life!

And here’s why I’ve capped the enrollment:

Because the recordings of this program are going to be the core content of a digital, self-paced program, having fewer people on the calls will enable me to provide focused, personalized Energy Coaching to the participants. We’ll be able to zero in on their specific questions and issues. So the recordings for the self-paced version will be chock full of highly specific and practical information that might not come out with a larger group.

So that’s all good. Now here’s the important point before I get to Mark’s email:

When I first opened registration for the course, and saw that enrollment was going very slowly I wasn’t quite as relaxed about it as I am now! And before I had those encouraging, positive conversations, I actually managed to attract four conversations in a three-day stretch that clued me into some inner work that I need to do.

You see, each of these four people responded in almost the exact same way when I voiced my concerns about the enrollment in the program. They all said:

“Well, with this recession and gas prices being so high and food costs going up, people are getting very cautious with their spending.”

I’m still amazed that every one of them used almost the exact same phrasing. It was as if they were reading from a script! (In a way, they were. Read Mark’s email below and you’ll see what I mean).

Now the fact that I had four people voice these fears to me tells me that I’ve got some internal work to do. Apparently, even though I don’t watch the news and only rarely read the paper, on some level, I’ve bought into this whole recession thing.

And obviously, many others have as well. And that brings me to Mark’s email. If you’ve been hearing lots of people around you complaining about the “recession” or gas prices or food prices, or if you’ve been catching yourself complaining about the “recession,” you’ll definitely want to read this.

[Note: The highlights are mine. Also Mark’s offer at the end is only available for another 24 hours (as of this posting) but the information in the email is definitely worth reading anyway!)

After you read Mark’s note, leave a comment below and share your thoughts. I’d love to hear how you’ve been responding to this “recession!”

Hey Ed

I hope you’re having a beautiful day!

I sure am - maybe better than I’ve had in a *long* time …

I’ll tell you why in a second. (hehe

First, there’s something I need to get off my chest before my
head pops off my shoulders.

OK …

I’m really sick of hearing one particular word every time I
turn on the TV.

Bear with me.

No, it’s not “election” or “Iraq.”

This word gets me more worked up than either of those two.

The word I’m talking about is “recession.”

First, don’t you get a sense that most of these “pundits” on TV
don’t really have any clue what they’re talking about?

I mean, not even economists agree on the definition of a
recession, or if it’s even a significant event at all.

Yet, that doesn’t stop the prime time scare-mongers from trying
to strike *fear* into the hearts of me & my family, though,
does it?

I mean, let me digest my meal in peace for Pete’s sake!

Can’t they think of another way to pump up their ratings without
toying with the hopes & dreams of the average Joe?

Ah, anyway … !

I’ll get off my soapbox.

What’s important is this.

When you strip away all of the hype from what is supposed to be
“fact-based news,” there are some things happening that should
cause us all to be a alert.

“Alert.”

Not, “so scared out of our wits that we can’t think straight.”

Warren Buffett, the greatest investor who ever lived, recently
revealed at the latest Berkshire shareholders meeting that,
“the worst of the crisis in Wall Street is over.”

Contrast that with the high-drama about a pending “financial
melt-down” the pundits are yammering on about.

Who to listen to? The greatest investor who ever lived or some
TV blow-hards?

Not a hard decision!

Yet, a clever investor is never complacent.

So, that’s why I’m going to spray myself with a whiff or two of
“Recession Repellent.”

Don’t laugh.

This may sound like something silly, but it’s not. Far from it!

Warren Buffett has done it.

Bill Gates has done it.

So has Richard Branson, Donald Trump, Oprah Winfrey and just
about every other billionaire you can name.

So, what is it?

First, you need a little “background” before you can really
understand it.

Sorry if that sounds like “talking down” - it’s not meant to be
at all.

Most people tend to dismiss this at first, but you won’t be so
fool-hardy when you are armed with the following facts.

Ready?

OK, let’s play a little game.

Can you name a group of people who, year in and year out,
weather the toughest financial storms?

Even if they lose everything these guys can get it *all* back
without breaking a sweat.

They’re not doctors.

They’re not lawyers.

Nope, they’re most definitely not stock-brokers.

Who are they?

Now, promise me you’ll keep reading after I tell you because
you may think this doesn’t apply to you, but it does.

It most certainly does.

Promise?

OK …

They are “best-selling authors.”

Now, remember your promise!

You’re about to understand why this fact can not only cause an
immediate cash windfall for you now, but also “set up” you and
your family for bedrock stability, year after year, no matter
what happens.

In the next 90 seconds, you’re about to get an education
that has taken others decades to learn. And sadly, some never
get this education at all.

Consider these facts:

FACT: A best-selling author can, because of his or her
celebrity status, get in front of large audiences almost
anywhere in the world, sometimes within hours of picking up
a phone.

One of the most challenging things for any business is to get
“traffic.”

Best-selling authors can get instant traffic, any time day or
night, like flipping a switch.

It’s a fact.

FACT: Best-selling authors have “instant trust and credibility”
with their audiences.

Another barrier that holds you hostage from the riches you know
you deserve is “trust.”

You may have a product with more selling power than “instant
hair,” but if no one knows you or trusts you, it just doesn’t
matter.

If, however, your message comes from “Best-selling author of …”
vast audiences will stop in their tracks to listen.

FACT: Products from best-selling authors are “pre-sold” so you
can sell without selling.

Let’s face it, no one likes an annoying pushy salesman, and
unfortunately, that’s what most people think the business
world requires.

That just couldn’t be further from the truth.

What happens most often in today’s world is “selling without
selling.” Pre-selling is the name of the game, but most people
just don’t understand how it’s done.

Products from best-selling authors have pre-selling built in
to them, often without the best-selling author understanding
how their products “just seem to keep selling.”

I could probably carry on like this for a few hours and barely
scratch the surface.

People often ask, “If Donald Trump has so much money why does
he keep writing books?”

And now you know why.

Not only does he get a tidy flood of cash from the sale of his
books (and the additional products he sells to his readers), but
he enjoys limitless “ripple effects” that churn more and more
profit out of every nook and cranny.

Pretty cool, huh?

Well, it gets better?

What if I told you that *you* could be a best-selling author?

And what if I told you that …

you don’t have to have any business experience

(what I’m about to show you has worked for many who just blindly
followed the plan without even understanding it)

you don’t have to have a “list”

you don’t even have to write a book!

(you’ll laugh - many of the world’s best-selling authors have
never had to put pen to paper even a single time)And what if you could do all of this with minimal cash outlay?

One young man from Singapore, with barely a penny to his name,
followed a similar plan and made 100K (US currency) within weeks.

(you’ll hear his story and others)

Pretty cool, huh?

Now you’ll understand why I’m on such a “natural high” these
days!

Well, it gets even just a little bit better.

This system comes with a high price tag (if you had such a
system that actually *worked* wouldn’t you expect that?), but
if you act quickly, you can get it on a drastically reduced
price with a payment plan that makes it affordable for even
someone on a “minimum wage” budget.

Here’s the link:

http://www.simpleology.com/p/bestseller/edwardmills/

Do yourself a favor and at least test this out.

You’ll know instantly after reading that page (it’s actually
fun to read and you’ll learn a ton more) that it’s all on the
“up and up.”

The man who put this together is a well-known 4 time #1
best-selling author who is endorsed by people from legendary
business luminaries to University professors to “work at home
moms” who have followed his advice and turned their lives
around.

It’s backed up by an iron-clad guarantee and they have “assumed
the risk” for you, so you’d be crazy to miss out.

OK, I’ve got to get back to work following this plan myself

My wish is that both of us, you and me, are best-selling authors
by this time next year.

You game?

It can probably happen a lot sooner (it took one of his students
just 45 days!), but let’s be realistic.

Last Day To Save $200 On Energy Skills For Deliberate Creators

Do You Take Your Expertise For Granted?

3 Comments

I’ve had an epiphany of sorts over that last week or so. Many of you have downloaded the Energetics of Attraction report and were either on the live teleclass calls, or listened to the MP3 recordings of them. If you haven’t, you can go get your free Energetics of Attraction Resource Package here:

But that’s not the reason for this post. No, there’s something much more interesting.

As I’ve been preparing to launch the new Energetics of Attraction Intensive - writing the report, leading the teleclasses, creating the curriculum and handouts, setting up the web pages - I’ve come to realize the extent to which I take my knowledge of the Human Energy Systems for granted!

I’ve been thrilled about the launch of this new program, but after reading through some of the questions that have come in and a phone conversation I had with one of my Mastermind Partners – a long-term Personal Development and Law of Attraction practitioner – I finally got that my understanding of and experience with the Human Energy Systems is rare, even in the personal development world.

I’ve been intensively studying the Human Energy Systems for over 12-years and sometimes I just forget that the knowledge and skills I possess are totally foreign to many (most?) people.

A while back, my friend Dawud Miracle started an interesting conversation by asking: Are You An Expert if You Can’t Share What You know?

It’s an important question. But before you can even get to that question, there’s another one that needs to be asked:

Are you an expert if you don’t acknowledge that you are?

We all have expertise. Every single one of you reading this is an expert at something. But because you are an expert at it - because it has become easy for you - you may well not even notice it.

A bird would not acknowledge that it was an expert flyer. He just flies!

A fish would not acknowledge that it was an expert swimmer. She just swims!

You probably don’t acknowledge that you’re an expert walker or breather or eater. But you are!

Of course you are an expert at other things as well, things that may not be quite so universal as walking or breathing!

But do you acknowledge your expertise? Do you accept that something you do is unique. Or do you take it for granted because it now comes so easily to you?

I learned my lesson. With over 12-years of active, intensive study into the practical applications of the Human Energy Systems I have achieved a high level of mastery. But as Dawud asked, “Am I an expert if I can’t share that knowledge?”

There is no definite, universal answer to that question. But for me, the answer is a resounding No!

After all, what use is mastery if it’s not shared?

So I have made a conscious decision to ramp up the level at which I share my knowledge of the Human Energy Systems.

The Energetics of Attraction Resource Package was the first step.

And the next step is the 6-week program: Basic Energy Awareness Skills for Deliberate Creators.

Where is your expertise? What unique wisdom, talent, knowledge or ability do you have that you take for granted?

Perhaps it is time for you to claim your expert status and share your wisdom with the world!

Earth Day, A New Earth, And Energetics

4 Comments

My daughter and I had a great day at our local Earth Day festival on Sunday. Compostable balloons from Whole Foods, Seed Balls from a local summer camp, some great music and our awesome Sunday farmer’s market combined for an awesome celebration. In the afternoon I planted some salad greens, sunflowers (volunteers from the compost pile) and more broccoli in our garden.

I love days like that and I embrace the belief that “every day is Earth day!” It’s not always easy to act in ways that feel nurturing to the Earth. But by staying conscious about our relationship to this planet, our home, we can begin to live and act as if today and every day is Earth Day.

There was a beautiful coincidence - if you believe in such things - in the timing of this week’s A New Earth webcast with Eckhart Tolle and Oprah. This week’s discussion focused on the discovery and exploration of Inner Space and the stillness you find there.

This is what Tolle writes about Stillness:

Stillness is really another word for space. … You are never more essentially, more deeply, yourself than when you are still. When you are still, you are who you were before you temporarily assumed this physical and mental form called a person. You are also who you will be when the form dissolves. When you are still, you are who you are beyond your temporal existence: consciousness—unconditioned, formless, eternal.

It is through stillness that we can truly connect with the Earth. It is from our Inner Space that we can see the Earth not as an object but as a Being. From within the Stillness we can connect and communicate with and learn from the Earth.

The Earth is an amazing teacher! She has taught me much about the Law of Attraction. The Earth is the ultimate Deliberate Creator.

One of the reasons that many people struggle to attract their desires is because they focus on sending their intentions “out” to the Universe. In order to attract things in the physical world it is equally important to send those intentions “down” into the physical Earth. The Earth provides the medium within which your desires will become “real.”

The ability to ground our desires into the Earth was one of the tools we explored in the free Energetics of Attraction teleclass last week. If you missed it you can access the recording on the Energetics of Attraction Resource Page.

You’ll also get access to the free report on the Harmonics of Human Awareness. I agree with what Eckhart says in the quote below. When you are detached, or I prefer to call it fully present on all levels of perception, not locked in at one level of awareness, you experience and enjoy life more fully!

Being detached does not mean that you cannot enjoy the good that the world has to offer. In fact, you enjoy it more. … When you are detached, you gain a higher vantage point from which to view the events in your life instead of being trapped inside them. You become like an astronaut who sees the planet Earth surrounded by the vastness of space and realizes a paradoxical truth: The earth is precious and at the same time insignificant.

What steps will you take today to explore your Inner Space, honor the Earth and fully enjoy all the good this world and this life has to offer?

Get OUT of My Space!

Get OUT of My Space!

No, not you!

But, hopefully that got your attention.

Have you ever said that to someone? Have you ever wanted to say that to someone?

Most of us have probably felt that way once or twice in our lives… or maybe once or twice in the last hour!

We all have different personal space requirements. Some of us need a lot of alone time and like to maintain our physical and emotional distance. Others prefer being in social situations and being close to other people.

Our personal space requirements are also influenced by our cultural background. Different cultures have different personal space requirements.

Here’s what the website Edupass tells foreign students about our personal space requirements here in the U.S.

When two people are talking to each other, they tend to stand a specific distance apart. Each person has an invisible boundary around their body into which other people may not come. [Italics mine.] If someone pierces this boundary, they will feel uncomfortable and move away to increase the distance between them. (The major exception is family members and other loved ones.) This personal distance is not due to body odor or bad breath, but because closeness lends a sense of intimacy that is at odds with their relationship to the other individual.

Interestingly, the average personal distance varies from culture to culture. Americans tend to require more personal space than in other cultures. So if you try to get too close to an American during your conversation, he or she will feel that you are “in their face” and will try to back away. Try to be aware of this, so if the person to whom you are speaking backs away a little, don’t try to close the gap.

Also, try to avoid physical contact while you are speaking, since this may also lead to discomfort. Touching is a bit too intimate for casual acquaintances. So don’t put your arm around their shoulder, touch their face, or hold their hand. Shaking hands when you initially meet or part is acceptable, but this is only momentary.

Apparently we are getting a reputation for being a bit stand-offish here in the U.S.

So what is that “invisible boundary” they mention?

Well there is much more to your “space” than meets the eye. Your personal space is more than your body, more than your room or your office or your home. Your personal space includes your personal energy space as well, and it’s very possible for someone to be in your energy space even when they’re not around.

Have you ever felt that someone is “in your space” even when they are not anywhere near you?

I know there have been times when I have felt my parents in my space even though they are 2000 miles away!

I also know that I maintain a connection with my daughter even when she’s not around.

The connection itself is not a bad thing. In fact it can sometimes be a very good thing. There are times when having a non-physical connection with others is important and beneficial.

At other times, especially when the connection is made without awareness, it can feel stifling, controlling, overwhelming, or even suffocating.

And it’s at those times – when you feel controlled or suffocated – that it would be good to have some tools and techniques for disconnecting from others.

Now depending on how sensitive you are, having someone “in” your personal energy space can feel just as intense as having someone literally standing “in your face.”

There have been times in my life when those energetic connections have felt more intense!

Fortunately, I’ve learned some techniques to limit the intensity of those connections and create healthy energetic boundaries.

One of the most powerful tools I’ve learned is called Neutral Separations. It’s a deceptively simple technique that instantly reduces the impact of any dysfunctional energetic connections you have with other people.

If you’re interested in learning how to use this technique in your life, I’d love to have you join me for a free teleclass later today.

You’ll not only discover how to use Neutral Separations, you’ll also learn a simple tool for grounding your intentions into the physical world, as well as a technique to help you instantly shift your perspective.

The call is today (Wednesday April 16th) from 4:30 – 5:30 pm Pacific Time (7:30 – 8:30 Eastern).

You can register for the call at the Energetics of Attraction website.

And if you have any questions, leave a comment below.

3 Simple Solutions to Your Law of Attraction “Problems” – Free Teleclass

A Microsoft Vista Lesson In Perfectionism

7 Comments

I woke up this morning all excited to publish Part 2 of my free report: The Energetics of Attraction: Understanding and Applying the Harmonics of Human Awareness to Compose the Life You Desire. (If you haven’t read Part 1, you can get it here).

Yesterday, I spent over 4-hours “finalizing” the document. I added the section on the role of the subconscious in attraction, made revisions based on feedback I received, and added the layout elements including all the callouts and quotes.

So imagine my surprise this morning when I fired up my computer, started Word and got to the quick launch menu and saw no sign of my revised file! I spent a few minutes poking around, but rather than get completely stressed before my morning yoga class, I took a deep breath and walked downtown for some hot yoga.

After returning from yoga I searched everywhere on the internal hard drive, external hard drive, and flash drives. I’ve looked for the autorecover files. And I’ve searched Google on the slight chance that Vista has some glitch (no snide comments please!) that makes files just disappear.

No luck.

The file is gone.

So, either I had a major hallucinatory/out-of-body experience for those 4-plus-hours yesterday, or Vista/Word decided to eat that file. Either way, I can’t say that I’m thrilled!

However, being a Law of Attraction practitioner, I’m taking a lot of deep breaths and looking for the positive and the lesson in this.

One big positive is that, aside from the brief moment when I considered smashing the computer, I have remained relatively calm during this process. I haven’t whined (too much). I haven’t screamed (thought about it). I haven’t found a “Microsoft is the antichrist” website to rant on (hadn’t actually thought of that one until just now. Maybe… Nah!)

In fact, as I write this, I actually have a silly grin on my face and feel pretty good. (Check in with me again when I’m 2-hours into making those revisions again!)

Now, as for the lesson… Can you say “perfectionists anonymous?” Sure, as a coach and trainer, I encourage people to let go of perfectionism and get more done. But that’s still a life lesson I’m actively working on.

If you have already downloaded and read part 1 of the report you know that Part 2 was supposed to be done last week. Didn’t happen. Yesterday, I planned to publish it by lunchtime. Didn’t happen. So when I “finished” it around 9:00pm last night, I thought, since it was “too late” to publish it, that I would give it one more read through this morning before sending it out.

I guess that was one too many versions and the computer gods conspired to give me a gentle reminder that next time I should focus on getting it done, not perfect!

Are you a perfectionist? Do you tend to take your projects one, two or more versions beyond where they need to go? What would happen if you “finished” your project in 3 versions instead of 5? How much time would you save? How much sooner would people have access to it? How much more money would you make?

Vista is a prime example! Do you think the project managers at Microsoft knew there were bugs in Vista when they released it? Absolutely. Did they find a good balance between getting it right and getting it done? I suppose it depends on which desk you’re sitting at. If you’re in the accounting office at Microsoft, I’m sure you’re feeling pretty good about Vista being out in the world. If you’re sitting at home pulling your hair out, you may not agree!

But Microsoft aside, I’m going to challenge you, and I’m challenging myself as well, to focus on “finishing” your projects - blog posts, reports, presentations, art projects, songs, etc. - in at least one fewer drafts than you normally would.

Don’t do what I did last night and say, “I’ll just give this one more read in the morning.” Get it out the door so that you can move on to the next project.

Does this mean that some mistakes will get through? You bet. Is it the end of the world? No!

In my case, a few typos in a free report isn’t going to make someone say, “Look, there’s a typo. I’m not going to read any more of this stuff!” And, honestly, if someone is going to be turned off by some typos, I’d rather they move on to someone else’s free report!

So here’s my promise to you: I will have Part 2 of The Energetics of Attraction: Understanding and Applying the Harmonics of Human Awareness to Compose the Life You Desire published by Noon pacific time… Today! That gives me two hours to redo the revisions, quotes and other layout elements. (Now it’s 1 hour and 53 minutes because I just did a quick proof of this post!)

If you haven’t downloaded Part 1 of the report, go get it now.

And then watch for an email at Noon announcing Part 2!

14 Success Strategies For Highly Sensitive People

8 Comments

success for highly sensitive people This is the second article in a series on Highly Sensitive people. If you have ever wondered what it means to be a Highly Sensitive Person or if you qualify, read this article: 22 Signs That You Are A Highly Sensitive Person.

And if you want even more information and tools on how to thrive in this world as a Highly Sensitive Person, get my free report:

The Energetics of Attraction:
Understanding and Applying the Harmonics of Human Awareness to Compose the Life You Desire

Just enter your info below and you can immediately download the report.

If you are a Highly Sensitive Person, you may be wondering if there are any tools or strategies for living more comfortably and effectively in this sometime overwhelming and seemingly insensitive world. There certainly are.

Here are 14 Success Strategies for Highly Sensitive People!

1. Accept your sensitivity.
Your sensitivity is a gift. I know it doesn’t always feel like it. But it is. I spent more than half of my life denying that I was a highly sensitive. Until you acknowledge and say “yes” to your sensitivity you cannot begin to learn the tools that will help you leverage that sensitivity into a positive benefit.

2. Choose to empower your sensitivity rather than minimize it.
It has taken me many years to get to the place where I can truly claim my sensitivity and use it as a powerful tool on my journey of self-discovery and deliberate creation. As a Highly Sensitive Person in an often over stimulating world, dampening your sensitivity sometimes seems like the best solution. And while that may be helpful, and even necessary, at first, ultimately you want to empower your sensitivity and turn it into a powerful ally in the creation of a truly brilliant life.

3. Spend time with other sensitive people.
It is very easy to get caught up in the stress and overload of our frenetic, chaotic world. Sometimes it seems as if there is no one else as sensitive as you. And from that thought it’s a short slide down the slippery slope into feeling like you are crazy or weird or strange. So find some other folks who are highly sensitive and create a support group where you can go for encouragement and to remind each other that you are not alone and that you are not crazy. One important note on this: This group is not a complain and whine group! The point is not to compare notes on how horrible and insensitive the rest of the world is. You connect with other Highly Sensitive People in order to know that you are not alone and discuss ways to leverage your sensitivity to create positive changes in your lives!

4. Hang out with successful, not-so-sensitive people.
I know this seems like a contradiction of the last one. But I have seen it happen (in myself and others) where a sensitive person basically says “screw you” to the rest of the world and all of the less sensitive people and finds someplace to curl up in a little ball and hide. While this can certainly be a beneficial and sometimes necessary short-term strategy, it’s not an effective long-term solution. Those of us who are highly sensitive can learn a lot from people who are not sensitive. So find some not-so-sensitive people who are successful and begin hanging out with them. Observe them. Learn from them. Watch how they move through the world. Not so that you can dampen your sensitivity but so that you might learn how to bring your sensitivity into the world in a balanced manner.

yoga for highly sensitive people 5. Start a regular practice of “mindful exercise.”
Exercise is important for everyone. But especially so for Highly Sensitive People. Moving your body helps to get any environmental, emotional and energetic toxins out of your system. While any type of exercise is beneficial, workouts that incorporate your mind, body and spirit can be especially helpful. Try things like Yoga, Tai Chi, Akido. and Pilates. Dancing and rock-climbing can also be great opportunities for the body, mind and spirit to move. The bottom line is to find a form of exercise that touches YOUR body, mind and spirit.

6. Find HSP role models, sensitive people who have leveraged their sensitivity to create a great life.
Do you know any Highly Sensitive People who have learned to not only survive in this world, but thrive in it? What lessons can learn from them? What life strategies can you emulate? If you can’t find role models in your own life, look in the wider world. What teachers, authors, artists, and entrepreneurs (yes there are successful AND highly sensitive entrepreneurs) can you find? Once you find them, again look for lessons and strategies that they are using to leverage their sensitivity into success.

7. Gently push yourself beyond the level of your sensitivity.
Your sensitivity is a gift and strength. But in order for this gift to be of any value to you and to the world, you must learn how to put it into use. That means you have to stretch yourself and bring your sensitivity with you into places and situations where it feels uncomfortable. Just as you build muscle mass through resistance, you increase your ability to bring your sensitivity into the world by practicing and exercising.

8. Know your limits.
Don’t push yourself so far that you blow a fuse! Become aware of the internal signals that let you know you are reaching maximum capacity. And when you notice them back off. You want to push yourself and strengthen your sensitivity, but not to the point where it causes you to blow a fuse!

Sensitive Person Massage 9. Set up a consistent self-care routine.
As a sensitive person you need more self care than others. Don’t compare yourself to less sensitive people. Get clear on your needs and take steps to ensure that those needs are met. If you need a massage every week, get one. If you need to take a bath with sea salts every night, do it. Your sensitivity is of no use if you are not able to function in the world!

10. Connect with nature as often as possible.
If there is one consistent theme I have found among sensitive people it is the restorative capacity of nature. Even if you live in a city get outside every day. Connect with a tree. If you don’t want to look strange, pretend you’re leaning up against it waiting for some. But while you’re there, feel the restorative, grounding energy flowing through that tree.

11. Create safe, sanctuary spaces.
It is very important for sensitive people to have safe spaces to go to when the world hsp-sanctuary gets overwhelming. You need to know that no matter what is happening in the wider world, that you have a safe space, a sanctuary to which you can return and restore yourself. Ideally, your home is your sanctuary. If it’s not, start by taking a small space and turning it into a safe, private, sanctuary where you can go when you need quiet and solitude.

12. Limit your exposure to news.
In some ways, this one suggestion may be the easiest and most powerful success strategy for Highly Sensitive People. And yet, I find it amazing how often this suggestion triggers people. They feel that if they don’t read the newspaper they’ll be missing out on important information. My response is that if reading the newspaper makes you feel like crap what good does that information do for anyone. I would much rather see you feeling great and doing positive things in the world, than see you feeling depressed and hopeless because you’re reading too much news.

13. Explore energetic healing modalities.
My training at the Academy of Intuition Medicine has been the most powerful work in my quest to empower and balance my sensitive nature. Try acupuncture, homeopathy, reiki, energy medicine, flower essences and other forms of energetic healing. When you find one that works, schedule regular sessions.

14. Learn how to create positive energetic boundaries.
There are wonderful resources that can teach you to setup positive energetic boundaries. Start with my course, The Energetics of Attraction and explore Energy Medicine University (the distance learning wing of the Academy of Intuition Medicine). Read books by Caroline Myss, Donna Eden, and others. Once you venture into this world you will be amazed at how easily you are led to the information and teachers you need to get learn how to thrive in this world!

If you are a Highly Sensitive Person, I encourage you to begin using some of these strategies. Look through the list and pick one or two of these that resonate with you and begin integrating them into your daily life. You may be surprised at how quickly and dramatically your life can change when you actively employ success strategies specifically designed for Highly Sensitive People.

Whew. I wanted to get a quick post out because I’m so excited - and just a little bit tired! - about the new report that I I just finished: The Energetics of Attraction: Understanding and Applying the Harmonics of Human Awareness to Compose the Life You Desire

Although, I have to be honest with you, it’s sort of finished!

You see, a funny thing happened on the way to this report: One of those “aha” moments when the pieces fall into place in a new and exciting way. As I was pulling together the pieces for this report, the plan was to focus on my model of the five levels of human perception, awareness and response. And while it still addresses those levels, this report now includes a new and powerful concept: The Harmonics of Human Awareness.

Well, sort of.

Because the Harmonics of Human Awareness piece is new to me, I still need to write it. The ideas are all here, in my head and in various notebooks, but they’re not yet written in any sort of presentable manner. So I’m releasing the report in two sections.

Part One, which is available now, begins with an exploration of why the Law of Attraction may not be “working” and then moves into the five levels of human perception, awareness and response.

Part Two, which will be available soon, will cover the following topics:

Recognizing your primary perceptual level.
The role of the subconscious in the Law of Attraction.
Understanding the Harmonics of Human Awareness.
Using the Harmonics of Human Awareness to empower your work with the Law of Attraction.

I promise I’ll have more information on the concepts in this report as well as the upcoming Energetics of Attraction live teleclass.

But until then, you can download your free report by filling out the form below:

And please come on back and leave a comment below. I’d love to hear what you think and discuss these ideas with you!
