Another client, Mike, was not familiar with tarot cards, which he associated with store-front crystal balls. Mike had been laid off from a lucrative managerial position, with a generous severance package.. Mike drew repparttar

Three of Cups from a Rider-Waite deck. I encouraged him to study repparttar 122433

image first, before turning to published interpretations. Mike spoke of three women who seemed to be proposing a toast. They appeared very focused on repparttar 122434

cups and on each other. Mike felt drawn to repparttar 122435

symbols of autumn and harvest: pumpkin, grapes, fruits, orange and yellow colors. Perhaps, Mike thought, he needed to harvest repparttar 122436

fruits of his previous career. He could celebrate what he had stored up and use repparttar 122437

fruits of

harvest for a new life. Mike had little interest in studying traditional meanings of this card. His own answer felt right to him. Besides this method, I advocate repparttar 122439

card-a-day method to track progress of a life transition. Keep a tarot card intuition journal. Write down repparttar 122440

question, draw a card, and record your card, Later you can track repparttar 122441

effectiveness of tarot cards for your own life. You may learn new meanings: "I thought this card meant departure but it really meant I was supposed to be waiting." My Rider-Waite deck has become one of repparttar 122442

most powerful tools in my career coaching. I encourage you to use your own cards to gather intuitive wisdom and enhance intuition as you enjoy career and life change.

The Art of Conscious Living

Written by Yvonne Chiarelli, PdD

Continued from page 1

Mindfulness is empowering because it cultivates greater awareness, clarity, and acceptance of repparttar present moment reality. Mindfulness as a work or life strategy:

> Saves time > Increases memory retention > Preserves integrity > Improves performance > Improves perception.

Who wouldn't like that? Successful people are highly skilled in using their focused attention on their activity, even if they spend little time on that activity. They can efficiently absorb, process, and discern and at very high rate when focusing their deep and mindful attention.

I challenge you to be fully awake, aware, focused in repparttar 122432 present, and see repparttar 122433 extraordinary in repparttar 122434 mundane for repparttar 122435 next two hours. Be ever vigilant that you are paying attention.

There are many resources on mindfulness at your local or virtual bookseller. Here are two that I can recommend:

1. Wherever You Go, There You Are : Mindfulness Meditation in Everyday Life by Jon Kabat-Zinn

2. The Miracle of Mindfulness : A Manual on Meditation -- by Thich Nhat Hanh, Mobi Ho (Translator)

Having a personal support team is a great way to keep you on track. You can also use a coach to help you reach your goals on personal growth and your desire to handcraft a life of choice.
