Change your thinking, change your life.

A middle aged business women (although these days that is a wide range—younger, middle aged this time) was referred to me as someone who worked very hard and didn’t do well.  She consulted with non profit businesses.  She recognized she worked best in a business structure and consulting was, perhaps, too flexible for her—even though she did well.  

We, jointly identified adjusting several of her beliefs, would help.  After one session, she “rebelieved” to :

-I am worthy

-I unconditionally trust myself

-I easily and unconditionally forgive myself

-I allow the abundance of the universe to easily flow to me.

Also, she learned how to easily center herself when she felt she was “flying off in all directions”

We shifted into business coaching mode and after some discussion she decided to shift her business model to selling -- choosing to organize (structuring her own business) into how to help non profit clients.  She then developed a group of skilled practitioners who would show up to provide specific help to the non profit client.  The practitioners were glad for the business and paid her a referral fee. 

She shifted from trying to be all things to all people and focused on what she enjoyed (selling) and thus can help many more people.  She called me and was very excited that it was working.  In a few weeks she had arranged with eight “experts” to work with her and bringing skills she really didn’t have. 

Two sessions, total—both on the telephone. 

This is about a teenager, sent by his parents for help.  As often happens, people show up at energy practitioners’ doors as a last resort.  This is changing.  Good!  The amount of life people spend in some sort of pain (physical, emotional, spiritual, and so on), when they could have a different experience, is saddening.  Well, you can tell that is a hobby horse of mine.

Anyway, Fred (not his real name)  first came for an appointment when he was fourteen.  He was  angry, living at effect of others, and guessed about 30% of his life didn’t work out—pick any example.  He knew he was depressed—the doctor told him so.  And while he didn’t quite know what to call what he was going through—depression sounded good.  He knew he had low self esteem—someone told him so.  Did he think so? I guess, he said. 

Net, I encouraged Fred to see the doctors and teachers (and even Mom and Dad) as his assistants, working for him, as he grew more well and learned to become an adult.  A new idea he kind of liked.  I encouraged him to tell his doctors and teachers he was seeing me, as the work we do is intended to be complementary and integrative, rather that replace others’ work.  That, too, was a new idea as he saw his current doctors as competing.  I suspect they weren’t—just his view.  Recall, he seemed to be living at effect.

Enough on symptoms; he had bundles.

Using muscle testing, he was able to see that he thought several things were true and they supported behavior that kept him at effect of others—Mom and Dad, teachers, doctors, “friends”, etc. We selected a few of those truths or beliefs to focus upon.  Specifically adjusting energy patterns to move to:

-I easily move through changing life patterns

-I love myself

-I easily choose how to be in the world

-I am sure of myself

-I am good enough

He stopped by, once every six months or so, with something else that was getting in his way, shifting what we do together into tuning up vs. overhaul.  He now has graduated high school having been active in extracurricular events and is accepted at a university.  Net, the integrative approach worked for him.  At graduation, he said the work we did together helped him pull his life together, over and over.  Sounds like a teenager.  

Helping people through repatterning their view of truth for them

I am called Mort Nicholson.  You can learn a bit more about me here,  http://nicholsonpep.com/AboutMort.aspx or simply put I believe in a quotation from Henry Ford “If you believe you can, or believe you can’t, you’re right”.  Note, I adjusted his word “think” to “believe”.  My experience is repatterining, changing, adjusting, beliefs really helps people.  You may see an example that speaks to you. 

I often use case studies (repatterned to be anonymous) in teaching and in ways intended to help clients understand what is possible for them.  The basis for this work is our behavior automatically comes from what we believe.   Adjusting a belief can easily allow behavior that limits us to turn into enabling behavior.  This blog is intended to share these examples more widely to help others.  We’ll see.

I met a young woman at a health fair.  She was way overweight, stared down as she talked, seemed unhappy and seemed embarrassed to even be there.  Even though I had only 15 minutes to connect and help her, it was enough, and she called for a telephone consultation appointment.  Showed me I didn’t necessarily need an hour to be helpful. 

She described having been raped three different times by different men she knew, and had thought might become boyfriends.  She is a professionally trained person and knew she was fat and unattractive to protect herself.  It was working.  She started to talk about the events and I asked her not to, so she didn’t experience them again—thus traumatizing herself yet again.  

As often happens with sudden traumatic events, she had formed the following beliefs “I am not worthy,  I am powerless, I am afraid, I am alone."  She wanted to adjust these to essentially the opposite “I am worthy, I am powerful, I am safe, I trust myself and others, etc”   She was clear that having these beliefs made sense to her and was surprised since she thought she remembered believing such things before. Before the trauma began, that is. 

The approach we use is, with the client’s permission, to energetically adjust one belief at a time from the existing belief to a new belief.  In this, and a subsequent session, we did that.  Yes, there is training for learning to do this, either, rapidly or more slowly—the approach, I was trained in, is rapid. 

Most people don’t notice, but there’s a constant flow of energy in and all around us—what’s important is learning how to use it to accomplish long-term goals or just get through each day.  With this source of increased energy, you can feel more alive, more vibrant, and more in harmony with the earth and people around you.  When we stop the flow, with resentments, fear, and so on, we can become ill and often, very often, not achieve what we want.  

Sometimes I hear about people’s results.  In this case, she called for a followup session, fifteen  months later.  This often happens as people become alert to behavior that is not helpful and know there is a way out.  They call.  After working, I spontaneously invited her, no charge, to a training session we were conducting in personal energy.  She came.  When I met her at the door, I didn’t recognize her.  She was tall, slim, erect and looking me in the eyes.  And proud and happy.
