June 2014 Dreamer Sight Newsletter
Hello and happy June!
Welcome back to my monthly newsletter if you are a "regular",
and a special welcome if you are new. You'll read about my
passions and my work here, helping folks with their dreams and
their vision, and coaching them toward more abundance in their
lives. Enjoy, and feel free to send me feedback. I'd love to
hear from you!
Dreams
In a recent dream I'm with a group of my energy medicine friends,
visiting a college to interact with the enthusiastic young
students. We feel like a team of diplomats, building a bridge of
communication between the generations.
I ask one student what he's studying.
Full of excitement, he tells me about a project
on human behavior in oppressed groups. As I'm walking away,
one of my colleagues calls to me, wanting me to see an unusual
rock formation outside the window. It has streams of
water trickling down over it, and a few statues of robed
figures carved out of the rock face. It's like a sacred shrine
and we stand there silently in awe.
This month's picture is of me in an intense discussion with one of
my favorite teachers. To me learning and teaching are intertwined,
and the best teachers are still learning, constantly. I've had many
dreams of classrooms, either as a student or as a teacher. I like this
one, which seems to be saying the eager motivated younger
generation is now ready to learn about energy medicine and
natural healing,
and that my colleagues and I are ready to start passing on our
knowledge. What might you be studying, or teaching, in your dreams?
Gratitude and Vision
For a few years now I've had a nightly gratitude practice with 2
close friends. We each send an email to the others acknowledging
what went right that day. It might be merely sunshine after a long
stretch of rain, or the smile of a baby in the supermarket,
or something bigger like an unexpected check arriving in the mail.
Just noting what I'm grateful for seems to increase the things
on my gratitude list the next day! Both my energy medicine teacher
Deborah King
and my Abundance Coaching EFT teacher
Carol Look
have repeatedly stressed the power of gratitude. Being grateful
for the money you have is more likely to bring increased income
than grumbling about why you don't have enough. And it feels better!
One of the major areas of my life I'm always grateful for is my
healthy clear vision. For many years I saw my
nearsightedness as a defect -- when focusing on it I'd get
depressed. So I didn't think about it much.
Now there is evidence all around me of how much I
can see, and how well I can see it. Whether it's vibrant
green foliage in the sunshine, or the soft sparkle of raindrops,
my visual system so appreciates being able to receive this input
and interpret it correctly! Send some gratitude to your own eyes
and brain for the gift of your sight today.
EFT
In my first full month as an EFT Abundance Coach, with my recent
certification from my teacher
Carol Look,
I've had some interesting client sessions, as well as sessions with
my own coach. EFT is so powerful! I'm constantly surprised at
the results from clearing stuck emotions and allowing a person's
energy to flow freely.
One client I worked with was quite anxious about an upcoming
public appearance. After our EFT session, she was
looking forward to it! And in my never-ending work on myself, I'm
coming to see I've tied a great deal of my self-worth to
"getting the right answer", ignoring or discounting my compassion
and empathy. These are 2 essential qualities of any good coach
or teacher! An EFT session with one of my own coaches
helped me loosen this self-limiting belief, so I now know
that I can speak and teach from my heart as well as my brain.
If you're unfamilir with EFT, you'll find a brief description
here,
so you can better understand its power.
More On Dreaming
Earlier this month I was jolted awake by a shout in my ear.
This was an intensely realistic dream snippet of a voice,
possibly my own, yelling "...BUSY!" at me. I was so
startled I couldn't think clearly right away, then was
curious about what this meant.
My dream teacher
Robert Moss
often says "Don't dismiss a dream fragment!", that a great
deal of wisdom can be mined from following such a small bread
crumb as the image of a face, or a wisp of melody or color. So
I put my dream detective cap on, noting if the voice was mine,
some part of me already knows the answer. Why did I need to scare
myself? I was reminded of harsh demands or orders or criticism
from authorities in my past, which might have gotten results in
the short-term, but did not feel good and certainly did not foster
our relationship. I don't want to motivate myself this way now!
Another thought this prompted is on dream intentions. We are
sending out unconscious intentions all the time, for outcomes we
desire or fear, for ourselves or for people we wish well, or ill.
So maybe this was an answer to a question I hadn't realized
I was asking. Hmm... Now I'm also thinking of my ongoing desire
to continue
improving my vision, and to be emotionally calm enough to
maintain a consistent level of acuity. So maybe to address
this, some part of me screams at me "(You're too) BUSY!".
All right, I get the message. Clear vision is easy, gentle,
as natural as the breeze blowing or the stream flowing downhill.
I may be trying too hard, even rushing, which will slow my
progress. I don't ever intend to be sedentary, yet I can be
more peaceful and methodical in my vision practices.
Being less frantic and doing one thing at a time will help not
only my vision, but the rest of my life too. Thank you for this
dream guidance!
What's next for me
Early in June I'm going to Arizona for
more energy medicine training, and to graduate as a Level III
LifeForce Coach certified by
Deborah King.
I'm excited about what new energy healing techniques I will learn,
and of course about this additional coaching certification.
Each practice or modality added to my healing/coaching toolkit
is great for my clients, and
improves my own life too. Every little bit helps!
Fee increase coming soon
My fees for client sessions and session packages will go up
slightly in the first part of July. If you have been wanting
to book a coaching session with me, now may be the time!
See the links near the top of the page, just below the one to my
website, to do so. I'd love to get together with you.
I welcome your comments and questions
Let me know what you're curious about regarding vision or
dreams or EFT, or if there is a specific topic you'd like me to
focus on next month. If you have a friend who'd benefit from this
newsletter, feel free to pass it along, and send me their email
so they'll be sure to get next month's issue.
I'd enjoy hearing from you. Have a wonderful June!
