Setting Boundaries, Necessary In Both Personal And Business Life

boundaries

Setting boundaries is necessary in both personal and business relationships. It can be hard to set boundaries but if you don’t, after a while it can take a toll on your own personal happiness.

How many times have you heard someone say they feel as though they are being taken for granted?

This may be a problem you have in your own life. It happens to many people in both their personal and business lives, but there is a solution and you can begin to turn it around by setting boundaries.

This has always been very hard for me to do myself, and the root of it for me is because I don’t like telling people no. While that’s great for those that know this about me, it really has caused me a lot of stress in both the personal and business areas of my life. I was able to make many changes by setting boundaries in my business practices, but am still a work in progress on setting boundaries in my personal life.

Choosing Life Over Fear

Follow the Path of the Buddha

Did you ever heard the saying…”Nothing to fear, but fear itself!”?

It should be a statement taught to memorize in 1st grade to ensure we do not miss that train…that at times seemingly elusive train named happiness (not same as the streetcar named desire…:).

Contrary to what the title might have sounded like, this is not a religious article.

Changes for the Better: Onward and Upwards!

“Today is the first day of the rest of your life. Make it memorable.” These are the first words in a book I wrote 10 years ago.

Taking a moment out of all the craziness you live every day, to remember this is important, not only to the longevity of your life, but to the quality of life you are living.

And as the new year of 2015 is well underway, I am reminded that I need to practice what I preach, and refresh my memory. The book I wrote is called You, Only Better. I feel a need to do an overhaul and reassessment for 2015. Maybe you do too?

As a psychic an intuitive spiritual counselor, my day is filled with questions and queries, energy and emotions, that are not even mine. It can be difficult to release and let go. And as a mother, partner and your everyday person, life can be crazy and changes required.

Internet, Social Media: a Curse or a Blessing?

social media

Many are the well-known advantages to modern technology in the online, digital world in our modern daily life with its busy schedules and high demands in the workplace.

However, many are the issues and even serious problems that the misuse of this media can bring us, both immediate and long-term family and relationship problems.

Such problems can arise through misunderstandings and the untimely use and abuse of social media apps, such as whatsapp, facebook and so on. Not to mention the risk and all too real problem of internet addiction to digital social media.

You Are Not A Soul In A Body, You Are A Body In A Soul

You Are Not Alone – Flame Families

Last year I did a course in Spiritual Response Therapy, and one of the things I learned on the course, in Robert E Detzler’s book, Soul Re-Creation: Developing Your Cosmic Potential is that we are the fire of God’s creation, and that flame, which is our Soul Family, resembles a flower with petals.

Each petal has two souls, male and female, and all the petals together form a flame family. In one petal, we have our twin flame who is closer to us than other soul flame mates in the flower system.

One Way You Might Be Trying To Save The World And Don’t Know It

Wasted Food

Two mornings ago when I got up, it was a Sufi Spiritual Retreat day for me, I went to the kitchen to make breakfast, I threw something in the rubbish bin and I saw yogurt my daughter-in-law had thrown out and I burst out crying.

At first I was angry that she hadn’t asked anyone if they wanted it, but as I calmed down I realised it was at its best by date and no one in the house would have eaten it anyway.

I realised that she was very generous with food and so this wasn’t even about her. So what was it about?

How To Say No Without Feeling Guilty

How to Say No

Obligations

We’re now in the silly season, where there are a lot of obligations and commitments. So there’s lots of anxiety around saying “Yes” and “No”.

We have a number of underlying beliefs around saying No and Yes. The martyr in us will say Yes to everyone and everything, feeling burnt out, sick and exhausted at the end. They equate saying Yes with approval seeking and love.

So it may not even be the commitment they are saying yes to, but the approval seeking. There may also be the belief that if they don’t say Yes they will be abandoned and left out.

Removing Your Own Negative Energy

I know you have seen the many web sites out there with someone offering to remove negative energy that is causing the problems in your life.

How do they say it works? You pay them huge amounts of money and they will do the work or a spell from their end.

How do you know they are actually doing anything but taking your money and sitting back waiting for it to hit their bank accounts?

While negative energy can cause you problems in your life, wouldn’t it make more sense for them to tell you how to remove the bad energy yourself and know it works?

Often during readings for my clients I do pick up on negative energy around them, I do not however, offer to remove it for them but instead give them the tools necessary to do their own work.

First is to know how that negative energy is coming into your life. Sometimes it’s our own thoughts and actions. Once you know this, you can begin to remove those thoughts and action from your daily life and move on to more positive aspects. To say you will never have negative thoughts or do something to bring about negative energy would be to say you would have to live in a fairy tale and we know that’s not healthy.

Creating Your Own Personal Mission Statement

What is your purpose in life? What is your unique contribution to the world, one that is uniquely yours?

What gets you out of bed and fired up on those days when life doesn’t seem so wonderful?

And what do these questions have to do with attracting and building your ideal relationship?

When you get clear on your life’s mission, you also get clear about how to live to accomplish your mission, making relationship decisions and choices.

In this way you can take much of the guesswork out of what you need to do to have true love in your life.

Once you are in touch with your life’s mission, you will have a clear picture of the kind of partner who will help, not hinder, your efforts. No more wandering if you should tell someone they need to treat you better. You will have no time or energy for anything less.
