Consider this, cheetah has no problem using its gift of speed. The bald eagle easily uses its keen eye sight and ability to soar. Dolphins joyfully display their playfulness.

1- Know what is limiting you~ Do you like mysteries? Here’s one that can change your life. Let’s investigate. What beliefs are at core of who you are? Pay attention for one week to self-limiting beliefs that show up. As a detective, be consciously aware. Keep a journal handy to jot down notes. Beliefs can present themselves as a label you place upon yourself partnered with an assumption such as Single Parent- there is only so much I can do. They can reveal themselves in a negative statement such as “I can’t be ….”, “I can’t do…”, “ I’m not good enough”, I’m not smart enough…”. Beliefs may be uncovered in an assumption such as “there’s not enough time”, “that’s too hard”, or “he’ll say ‘no’”. Write down beliefs that are restraining you from what you want.

The more we trust our self help techniques, more we will use them both in everyday situations and during times of high stress or crisis. Habitual use helps to facilitate skill and intimacy with methods. Intimacy does not breed contempt in this case... it helps us gain greater confidence and trust in our own inner process and helps us to develop greater self awareness, a critical factor for interacting masterfully in life.

The best, most effective techniques involve aligning different layers of ourselves so as to maximise inner awareness. We cannot interact masterfully with others if we do not know and understand our own inner workings.

Inner alignment increases clarity, focus, effective self direction and leadership skills. These all link powerfully together to maximise manifestation of our goals and dreams consistently, joyfully and with minimum stress.

The following three effective power self help techniques can be easily incorporated into a busy lifestyle:

1. BREATHE!!!

Fast, easy way to align on spiritual, mental, emotional and physical levels. The breath is important to connect, rebalance and remain aligned with our deepest center during our hectic, challenging days.

Breathe. Deeply and fully for several minutes, many times during day. Breathe in peace, wisdom, love, abundance, joy and fun. Breathe out worries, anxieties, sadness, fear and hurt.

2. SELF TALK CHECK

Do a quick check of quality of thoughts playing through mind since awakening. Negative self talk changes frequency we emit and attracts real life situations that support, reflect and strengthen negativity.

If we are not happy with either situations we are encountering during day or quality of our self talk we can transform both by reprogramming our self talk more positively in line with what we would like to manifest.

Having discipline to regularly check-in on quality of our self talk realigns it to work in partnership with achieving our goals and dreams.
