2012: Article Writing With A Book In Mind
May 16th, 2012 by karencoach
Many of my clients and readers are living natural lives, conscious lives, and are working in the fields of enlightened healing arts and/or coaching. Most have a book inside dying to come out.
Do you Blog, Write, send out Newsletters;
What is the next step…
A book?
Living Consciously: In An Ego Driven Society
is ranked on the Best Seller List on Amazon
I wrote my book after 12-hours of putting everything together.
In the following event we will show you exactly what you need to do.
Event: May 19th, 2012
Time: 10 am EDT
Location: Your Phone
Duration: 1-hour + 15 minute Question and Answer Period
Receive: Information and introduction into a new program offered by Karen Monteverdi, CPC through GreenMountain Enrichment and Empowerment Center
How To Come: Call (712) 432-3900 access code: 775566# – Call will be recorded live. It’s Free No Charge, No Catch!
What we have discovered is most of our clients use alternative methods of healing. They have a story of empowerment, or how they have enriched their lives by using a tool, technology, method or process.
We all love to tell our story, share resources, teach clients, patients or students information about subjects that would empower and inform to live a “better” life.
We are a heart centered bunch, with a loving attitude towards our world. We want to offer so much, but how?
We blog, we write articles for journals, we send out newsletters to our community and we share inspiration with our social media. You might know someone like us, and you might be one of us. No matter what stage of life you are currently at in your development of a “healer” (I use the term loosely here as a way to express a loving attitude with the world) you know you have been called when:
- You do not like the cookie cutter attitude most business offer. You have your own ideas, and you want to express them.
- You know there is a way to make a change, by being the change you want to see.
- You have made a significant change in your own life and want to touch, move and inspire others to do the same.
- You have a message to share that if heard would improve the world.
- Your burning desire to share that message has become a driving force in your life.
- You know you are needed, people respond to your message.
You might be ready to start blogging, or you already have many articles written. Either way you are being called to write a book. We can change that I’m struggling to wow that was easy, and fast too!
Struggling behavior is seen in victimization, lack of freedom or empowerment. This is clear when one person is blaming another, creates guilt, judgment, or shame, one that justifies behavior, dominates another, or creates a win/loose situation. Living Consciousness means taking 100% responsibility for our experience of life. Living life with empowerment, activation, and aliveness are symptoms of living consciously.
There is no need to ever struggle to do anything, we watch children try new things all the time. We grow up and begin to put struggle into our lives. It is not necessary!
First we learn. Then we try it out. We see how what we learned fits into our life, if it doesn’t we either grow, or discard the information. We as human beings are natural explorers. We love to figure out and over come our weaknesses, naturally. Being stuck only happens when we focus on the problem and forget our natural problem solving abilities. As we awaken to our natural abilities, we begin to flourish.
The purpose of this article is to introduce you to a free event to help you see the book that is within. The book within is waiting for you to become silent. You are ready to organize your thoughts and put words on the page. We will offer you a template; it might help you begin the flow.
This is a step-by-step program to help you get started with your book. We can help if you have any of the following questions about writing your book:
- Where do I start?
- What if no one likes what I write?
- How am I going to format it?
- Will I write fiction or non-fiction?
- Who do I get to edit the book?
- I don’t know the first thing about publishing, do I find a publisher, or do I self-publish?
- I need to understand font sizes and headings.
- Alright I know there is other products that can come from this like a workshop… but how?
There is so much more I don’t know… I need some help!
Stop worrying and begin with the end in mind as Stephen Covey said.
My Intention is not to tell you what to write or how to write it. My intention is to share with you the method I used. You have the opportunity to see if it resonates with you in your path, space and purpose of writing a book.
Please like my book on amazon dot com here.
Then join me for the live event, no sign up is necessary, I don’t need your name and number to come. I’m not interested in sending you massive e-mails or bringing you onto my list. I want you to look and hear and feel, then ask the question; “Is this right for me?” I will offer you a way to sign up for the paid course at the end of the free 1-hour class. You will note I’m not your typical “shout it out to the world” kind of gal. I’m gentle in the way I offer things to you, this is out of a deep respect for you. If you like what we have, you will come back for more, and tell your friends about our work.
You’re smart enough to know what is right for you. I trust that, I have to, it is what I teach in my Living Consciously Education Program. I deeply honor and respect your needs and desire to get your story on paper. Come play with me and you will see it’s not so scary after all.
Love & Light,
Karen Monteverdi, CPC
About the book & author: Living Consciously In An Ego Driven Society the book is ranked on the Best Seller List on Amazon in Books > Health, Fitness & Dieting > Personal Health > Stress > Creative Visualization
For over 20 years I have been learning about personal growth, life and how we affect it. People call it spirituality, some call it psychology, some sociology, seems like there is a lot of labels thrown around for no other reason than to communicate ones perspective. During the summer of 2009, I sat down to put my experience on paper.
My intention was to write an outline for a book, and the chapter headings. After twelve hours the first complete rough draft of the book was done! I had written the introduction, acknowledgments, chapter headings, subheadings, and the content of each chapter. It was easy; the information was all stored in my head. The only thing I had to do was find the passion it took to write it, I found it through creating a space of silence first.
The next steps will be revealed in the workshop.

Dreams Fulfilled
May 7th, 2012 by karencoach
Recently a client came to me completely distraught, unable to focus and lost in her story of confusion. She didn’t have the money to be able to pay for the session. I could not turn her away. Here in Portland we are still in recovery economically, when people are in pain we are a creative bunch who can easily find solutions.
She offered a series of resource she had available to her and asked if I would coach her for one of the services she could provide. We have a strict policy in our office about exchange of services at GEEC we just don’t do it.
I was able to take my free time and play with her, and she set up an adventure of sorts. The resource she had available was an opportunity of a lifetime. Not for me, you see, but for my husband Sean.
Sean has what is commonly known as a bucket list. A list of important adventures he wants to do before he dies. On his bucket list right at the top is to fly in a non-commercial plane.
Satisfied with the agreement, we commenced the perspective change for her. She loved the session and was able to get right back on track with her vision, we call this being action based and forward focused.
The gift.
Sunday morning at 5am I woke up my husband and explained we were going on an adventure. He had no idea what was about to unfold. At exactly 6am we were picked up from our Portland home and chauffeured to The Dalles Airport. For the next several hours we were in the air. We stopped at a wonderful airport cafe then flew back home.
Here is the fun part, under the watchful eye of the instructor Sean was able to sit in the co-pilot seat and receive his very first lesson in aviation. He was able to feel the air move the plane, understand how the controls worked, began to get the idea of all that would be involved in piloting an airplane of this size.
It was Fabulous!
It is so important to follow your dreams, never let money stand in the way of creating what you want in life. Here are some tips to help you in the process of navigating your dreams:
- Create and Commit to A Personal Mission Statement
- Map It Out The Destination
- Follow Your Heart, Using Your Logical Mind
- Follow A Compass To Navigate Your Way
- Use Waypoints & Benchmarks To Know How Far You’ve Come
- Get Support From Others When Needed
On my wall are my instructions for daily living in “Navigating My Dreams”.
“I follow my inner compass as I begin each day with the creative process giving direction to my life. I can live in this life free to seize the possibilities and opportunities based on what is now.”

2012: Are You Playing “Monkey In The Middle” with your Clients?
Apr 26th, 2012 by karencoach
Have you ever been on the Internet and you’re searching for a service that speaks to you? No matter where you turn you just don’t seem to find exactly what you need? You settle and take what is available, you know you’ve heard of the service but no one seems to have exactly what you need.
This is a common infliction I hear from my clients’ customers. They feel like businesses are playing monkey in the middle. Prices are not negotiable, making excellent services out of their reach. Money Mindset seems to be a major transformational work for these clients, we see great success in helping them understand true value, and their true values. Sometimes clients discover someone they like to work with but their just not getting what they need. They say oh well I’ll get what I can and move on. How do you maintain excellent customer service, provide what they need without going broke? This has been a huge challenge in my business for years. I finally discovered the answer.
As a business owner it can be a challenge to know what to do for your clients. You follow your heart, and your intuition, you ask all the right questions, and yet, something is still missing.
Sometimes clients just fade away never to be heard from again. Others go buy bigger services from another provider. I know when it happened to me I was left standing on the sidelines with my mouth hanging open wondering; “why they didn’t ask for what they really wanted.” Has that happened to you? You know you could have helped them, but they just never realized you could do it. One solution, excellent research on your existing clients, you’re not being nosy, you are offering solution based-open ended questions. This can allow you to charge more by adding more value.
For those clients who have “perceived money issues’ one solution might be to offer discounts for those clients, or offset it with their willingness to help you promote your business through their mailing list, also known as referrals.
There might be a plethora of services your clients could do for you that would serve your bottom line, make you money directly or indirectly. My personal favorite gives me some time away from the office. I have one client who has a house in the mountains, another at the beach, one who’s boyfriend has an airplane and takes us for a nice Sunday flight. Next week my husband and I are going for a nice flight in the Columbia River Gorge.
Self-care is so important in the service industry. If your burnt out by your workload, how can you be of excellent services to your clients? You know you need to be at your best to help them or they will find someone else who can do it with more care. If you need to take care of yourself but you don’t have the cash to get away, barter.
Here is another thing I like to do, have a retreat at their secret hide-a-way, have them invite only their closest and dearest friends. Then Play With Your Clients! But…
Stop Playing Monkey in the Middle with your Clients!
Wouldn’t it be smarter to get all relevant information straightaway to help your clients.
What if you could really understand their need, and if you don’t have it, build it for them!
In a recent article I wrote featuring Kaya Singer from Awakening Business Solutions, she debuted her new program called Niche-360. We tried it out, and loved it!
It’s free and we encourage you to take the time to go through the program. She will enlighten you about why you need to create what your clients want.
In our class Self-Knowledge is Self-Power you discover some things about yourself that you didn’t know before. This class is designed to help you bring the joy back into your life. Feeling joy allows you to feel light and airy. Your tasks no longer feel like a heavy and dark burden. In the program we use a process allows you to see the darkness you are currently filtering everything through. Our gift to you is to “Illuminate The Dark Corners Of Your Bright Ideas” to discover what is holding you back from expressing life from a place of joy again.
It is often your own insecurities. We will help you find solutions so can you leverage your time, energy and resources to give more value to your clients?
Lack of simplicity is the main reason why most service providers do not discover how to determine what they’re clients need. We have a motto around the office “As We Awaken We See The Simplicity Of Life.” What to know the simplest way to find out what your client needs? Ask them directly.
There are a couple of challenges that come with this solution though. When you ask them simply, it does not mean ask them in a way that would challenge their intelligence. To leverage your services so they think of you as the solution builder, you must ask your questions in a simple and intelligent way so they see you as someone who easily can solve their need.
There is another twist that comes with simplicity: because most service-based businesses believe that exclusivity and making it hard to get in touch with you give your customers a sense of being in a private club. That is a wonderful idea if you have so many clients you need to be careful of your time and put people on a waiting list.
If you are not getting the clients you need, it might be that you are making it too hard for them to get to you.
- Use a dedicated telephone line for your business
- Use a service or software program like youmail.com as a way to create a beautifully welcoming message for your clients, or new prospects when your not available. This service needs to be available 24-hours a day 7-days a week.
- Be available between appointments to answer questions, either by phone or on the Internet in your social media sites.
- Make sure your bills are paid on time, so you are not worried if the call is a bill collector or someone selling you something. Answer the phone every time it rings during office hours, or turn the ringer off so it goes directly to your voice mail service. If your phone rings and rings and rings and no one answers, potential clients will move onto the next service provider on their list.
- Create a dedicated e-mail address where only potential clients or current clients can reach you. This will help you solve your clients needs faster and more efficiently when they need you!
- Have a calendar system available for your clients so they can open your calendar and schedule their own session immediately. There are free systems like Google calendar, or Tumbler. There are many such free systems; another option is to use Coaches Console a full service company with many other features. I use it, and if you want to buy it, please consider using my affiliate link, that way you get a great service and I get a little extra cash, always appreciated.
- Have affiliate or referral links for services you don’t provide, but you feel comfortable offering to your clients. This helps you ease the burden of not being able to help them directly, offers you a little extra cash if you have someone right for them, and the person gets exactly what they need, the minute they need it. Hero! Get your referral bonus from me!
- Offer your key partners a referral opportunity or an affiliate program so they too can earn money by referring potential clients to you. Incentive is the key with referrals & affiliates.
- Keep is simple, but give great value, and a lot of it. Michael Port of Book Yourself Solid system says this; “put yourself out in front of, and offering your services to, those whom you are meant to serve – people already looking for your services”
The point is to offer what your clients need, do not make them chase information, be clear and concise on your website, in your marketing material and in the services you offer.
If you make your clients hunt for information, this is what I call the “Monkey in the middle” problem.
Through our BizRichment™ Business Solutions we help you discover what is making your clients or potential clients work too hard to reach you. We help you build relationships with others to help share your services to reach more people who you want to work with and who are asking for information about you.
Because information sharing can interfere with how potential clients might see you, we help you understand the process of communication between those who would share your services with others, and your desired prospects. The key is to discover if you are keeping your clients or potential clients feeling like a monkey trying to catch on to what you do, what other obviously love about you, but they just can’t reach you. This chase can cause them stress, it costs lots of money and as we all know this game very well – it can even be extremely painful for them.
Let us know how we can help you solve this problem for your clients, for you and for your bottom line. Feel free to call us 24-7 if we don’t answer leave a message we will get back to you!

Our perfect client is someone who is a small business owner, entrepreneur or solo-entrepreneur for a service-based industry. We help them see where the money is falling through the cracks of their business.

2012: Creating Community
Apr 11th, 2012 by karencoach
Today’s topic is creating community. I want to tell you about an amazing coach I have met during the 2012 BizRichment™ International Coach Academy (ICA) Alumni Telesummit.
Before I introduce you to her, let me tell you a little about where I met her.
In 2011, I was on Facebook writing my usual informational update about one of our teleclasses. Up popped the little message box for a chat. A woman by the name of Julie wanted to ask me some questions about where I went to school. Julie was thinking about becoming a coach. I told her about ICA and told her why I thought it was one of the top coaching schools around.
It’s a year later, and she’s about to graduate. So now let me introduce you to what I can only describe as the Amazing and Inspiring Julie Fowler.
Why is Julie Amazing, it is because she has a house full of people she supports emotionally, and through her support they gain momentum and keep their spirits high. Then she further expands herself by creating several online support groups through her social media site. Inspiring because she lives with a disorder that for some is crippling called ADHD. She has turned her weakness into a wonderful adventure for others who need her support. Julie has created her entire practice as a life coach in helping others understand how ADD & ADHD can be managed. Her solution oriented mind-set allows her to coach others through what could be a life stopping condition. But Julie took matters into her own hands and has created a community of support for those who need it. She is amazing at rallying the troops, so to speak to assist others when things are looking down to move them into action of creation! She also saw the need in her community of coaches from ICA and realized they too could use a little tender loving care… her specialty.
This is what she had to say; “I recognized a need within my community of life coaches, to have a place to gather together in order to share information, support, resources, and simply to reach out and make connections. With this in mind, I created a Facebook group specifically for my coaching network.
Among the many topics shared within the group are: How to Develop Your Business, Different Types of Programs Offered, Brainstorming, Various types of surveys for personal information and development, Blogging Support, Technical Support, Numerous Educational Resources, Mastermind Subgroups, and a Teleclass Training Group. New ideas and opportunities are posted everyday and shared by the group. The teamwork and supporting of one another and establishing a united front for the greater good of all, is one of my main objectives for the group. Many members have found others with similar interests and lifestyles and unexpected commonalities.
Because it is a closed group creating a safe environment, members have shared some personal stories and occasionally a frustration or two, which is met with encouragement by the other members providing positive, forward moving, supportive and informative feedback.
I believe the diversity of the group, with the aligning ourselves across the globe with many different nationalities, cultures, languages, and lifestyles has been and will continue to be an enriching experience.”
People in the group really appreciate that support, as one Renee Vos de Wael explains; “Julie Pledger Fowler is very connected with what is needed in your environment… She got a big group motivated to take action and responsibility. She has created a safe and kind place, where all can come to together.” You can read what others had to say here.
Julie would like me to add that the richness of the community is because of its members. It is her view that she doesn’t want anyone to see her as a hero. News for you Julie, as one member put it; the group support moves me to tears. It sometimes is the only place we can turn when we are feeling all alone and do not know how we’re going to keep moving forward in our own struggles. The group lends that extra needed boost of light and perspective that can change our whole day into something to smile about. It makes a difference to have people who can share your laughter, fears, and hold you as capable.
Julie recently overcame her fear of speaking to the public in a live format. Come listen to what she had to say on the fabulous BlogTalkRadio show Coaches Corner ,where she was interviewed by the Voice of Coaches Corner, Andrew Poretz.

My Clients Are Awesome!
Mar 23rd, 2012 by karencoach
Today I was going through my client list and revisiting what they got out of our teleclass or in-person workshops. This little act reaffirmed that:
My Clients Are Awesome!
After taking our class one client told me that they don’t things so personally anymore, they’re no longer reactive and allow others to have their own experience. This allowed them during a recent conflict with an employer to recognize that the employer was in ego. He realized what the employer was saying was honestly the employers’ belief. This created a new situation of peace in their heart even though they were being fired. It was a gift, previously if something like this would have happened the client would have been kicking themselves, and honestly probably would have gone out and gotten drunk. Or the other scenario he pointed out was that he would have held on to the resentment until he made himself physically ill. Today he’s looking forward to a better opportunity for employment. Low and behold it happened… He found his dream job!
This leads us to one of the highest light ethics and codes we share in our classes… let go so something better can come in.
There is always a gift that can be found through Self-Knowledge.
It is true, recently in one of my coaching groups a coach who was offering career coaching, also had a client who was fired. Do you know the same thing happened to his client. He received three offers that were better than the job he “just lost”. Coaching is transforming our planet, clients find inner peace and open up to possibilities that before they would have never seen. They would have been too busy judging the events, people and circumstances to see the gifts, grace and gratitude.
So I want to share with you what has happened to some of my clients who have taken the class
Self-Knowledge is Self-Power
One client decided to let go of the resentment and to stay with his family to “help out” during a rough time. The rough time is over and his is free to move about the planet. They found peace, and opportunity in the end. They now have a much better relationship with their family, and cleared out a lot of long held “stories” to now receive the love that is offered.
One client, discovered her “ability to express herself.” She quit her administration job and opened a yoga process for the blind.
One client, after creating relief from an injury found her spiritual heart and is now offering her “special gift of Intuition along with… practical experience and training in business matters”.
One client, discovered their ability to not allow their “disability” to get in the way of making a difference in the world! She now says “I have been dealt a hand that at times has been the hardest challenge I could ever imagine and at other times has been the best teacher I have known.”
One client, discovered how being her best allows her to see clearly what needs to be said or done to attract new business. We asked the question and she found the answer by letting go of self-criticism which as she says put her “At The Top Of My Game” and attracted new business.
One client had a 6-year dry spell he was an author who couldn’t write a single word on the page. His social anxiety was stopping him, it was through our classes and coaching he opened himself up to begin writing again (which was his goal) and had “no social anxiety going into the Christmas Party”, December 2011.
We had two different companies who were having issues with their staff including “gossip”, bickering, blaming others, general dissatisfaction, complaining, too many sick days, high turn over rates. Our professional clients were ready to resolve their internal issues and work with their employees. This saves them time, money provides stress relief that affects the bottom line. We offer solution-based coaching for a healthier work environment.”
After coaching with our staff one client created such a shift he started a program at his office for others to create empowerment at work. Why is this significant? When we are not happy at work, we love our job but other people’s attitude is getting in the way it can be drudgery to get up and do what we love to do. He found a way to be the change he wanted to be in the world. He did this by offering his company training to let encourage positive employee interaction. Because he was a coach he was able to work with us to create his own program to be the change he wanted to see in the world.
We noticed one amazing thing about our clients. All of them, came to our classes trying to figure out how they could make other do something, they left realizing the power was theirs to be the change they wanted to see. Learning to let go of their “strife” they learned how they could effect their environment to be a conduit of peace.
If you would like to see this shift happen within you, you are not alone. We recognize one other fact, each one of our clients couldn’t do it on their own. They were able to reach out for help, this makes them very courageous in my book! I see people who come to our classes or companies who ask us to design a class just for them as opening up to possibilities that never existed before.

2012: Grace & Gratitude
Mar 20th, 2012 by karencoach
I sit here today as the warm sun bright in its intensity showers our earth with its life giving rays. Basking in its glory, as the wind sweeps through the trees.
The songs of a wide variety of birds dance in my ears. Taking this time to reflect on our environment and how drastic a change I have incurred in my own life.
My days are no longer crowded with fear. All the events that now are the past. A humming bird feeding on the fuchsia in this peaceful safe place.
Now I teach this amazing transformation to other. Fear and the burden of pain no longer is attached to my shadow as I walk down the lane of life. The freedom to live presently, mindfully and consciously creating a marvel at every turn.
I am grateful to all those who taught me to move on, forgive, grieve and appreciate all those amazing gifts I’ve received from my experiences. Now I recreate my reality without the past as a defining factor of my self-image.
This is the greatest gift of freedom, the freedom to know I am not my past. Now you can join me in this amazing gift. Come to our free teleclass in March. A four week class to move you from being defined by your past to being free to create anything you set your heart on.

The Basics Of Mental Rehearsal
Identify a situation in your life you would like to change, this might involve time, money, spirituality, body awareness, health or whatever you want as a new experience.
- Write down your experience as it is now with all the details. Include information from your senses, emotions, intellect, and spirituality.
- Identify what it might be like to choose a new experience again through your senses, emotions, intellect and spiritually.
- Using your method of learning as you have discovered through our time together; set up a method of retraining the brain, making sure again you set up the process through your senses, emotions, intellect and spirituality.
Using your imagination see yourself in the new experience:
- What emotions come up for you?
- What thoughts?
- Is there anything blocking your way?
- Do you need coaching around this to break through the roadblocks standing in your way?
Notice what we call Alpha reflections in your environment:
- Intuitive “hits”
- Someone may bring up the subject your working on and by listening to them you may find an answer or a direction to explore.
- Stay open to opportunities and follow your heart and mind.
- Remember use common sense, as well as, emotional intelligence when exploring opportunities.
- Watch for special key words in friends or families language.
- Notice if you start thinking about your desired outcome/income if a song comes on the radio.
- Notice anything that might tell you you are on the right track.
We encourage you to also notice if the Alpha reflection is telling you there is something missing in your vision. This is where we can help too by … “Illuminating The Dark Corners Of Your Bright Ideas”.
Watch and experiment with projected outcome and incomes. We want to share with you an important reminder to heed the one of the priciples of conscious living… The law of cause and effect.
If you intend you receive a new car, but do not follow your details you might find you create a situation like our friend Jean. Jean intended on getting a new car, but how she got the car was not specified. Be careful or you might find yourself in a wreck, as did Jean. Which eventually did produce a new car, but there was a lesson to be learned for her. Fortunately all worked out for the best in the end. It was a costly lesson in time, money, headaches and loss of work.
If you suspect there might be a possibility you could create drama and trauma in your new experience, we encourage you to save yourself time, money and resources by working with a coach. It is our understanding that the most common thing that stops people from trying out a new mindset for a new outcome/income is the possibility of unforeseen consequences. Let us help.
- Lastly remember to live in grace and gratitude as though your expected outcome/income is already done.
- For additional information on mental rehearsal please contact Karen and she will offer you additional resources for the practice.

2012; How Does Living Consciously Affect My In/Outcome?

This weeks question(s) come from a reader in England.
I subscribe Abraham-Hicks. They say we are here in this body because we have chosen to be here.
I agree, though sometimes I feel like nothing goes right for me.
How does living consciously affect my outcome, and draw the conclusions of my income?
What does it mean to be a Physical Extension of that which is Non-physical?
I will answer the second question by saying read our article from last week describing our thoughts on T.H.I.S.
To answer your second question; I can say I am somewhat familiar with Abraham-Hicks. How I interpret their work is; positive affirmations effect our physical reality. The group called Abraham is non-physical being, ‘channeled’ through a woman called Esther Hicks and specifically deals with the Law Of Attraction. All of their work is distributed through copy rights ©1997-2012 Abraham-Hicks Publications. The publication group has many examples of their teachings on their website, youtube, and of course their products. You can purchase their classes and come to their live events.
As with all personal growth physical or non-physical you must be willing to do the work.
Any personal practices, spiritual or business development is just theory and conjecture until you put it into practice. It is the same with living consciously.
The reason we have seen 100% success rates in our work with our clients, is because we only accept clients that are willing to suspend their beliefs, perceptions, agreements and thoughts to experiment with new ideas. Sometimes just for a few weeks, and sometimes it affects their whole reality for life.
As they begin to see results they then choose if they want to continue to transform; or if they wish agree to stay where they began. Most of the time we see a growth spert that raises a persons ability to maintain a higher level of influence in their out/incomes. However, once in a while, we will get a client that likes the idea of a new life. However when they begin to see how it turns out, they go back to their old life. When this happens though, they have a new attitude about their “old life”; there is a new sense of grace and gratitude for what they have created. They begin to make subtle adjustments and recognize they have fulfilled their desires.
We create a playground for your mind, body, heart and soul. You begin to experiment in the playground. It can be a lot of fun for those who want to play with mental rehearsal for a new outcome/income in the physical world.
If we want to change our outcome (or income) we must look our agreements. Tony Burroughs has a new book coming out in February about the Law Of Agreements. I think it is a wonderful example of how agreements can stop us from transforming. One story in the book tells about a woman who agreed with newspapers, television, and people around her that the bird flu was the cause of several deaths in her area. She began to see the symptoms of the disease in herself, her mother agreed with her and she and became very ill. With the help of a wise man and through a process of removing agreements; first with the mother then the daughter, the daughter became perfectly healthy. She realized much of the story she believed was conclusions drawn from non-truths.
…
All of what we want is available to us. We truly only need to let the Universe know and stand in the power of its conclusion. The only way to create new conclusions is to transform our thoughts, agreements, perceptions and beliefs. Our transformation opens up the possibilities of a new conclusions never before available to us. Do you understand loves, you have everything to fulfill your dreams when you create a self-supportive relationship within. The evidence shows up in your external world because it is the only conclusion that is possible when T.H.I.S. is expressed.
If you are not fulfilling your dreams then work is to be done, this is our area of expertise. First we help you see the hidden agreements, thoughts, perceptions and beliefs that are not in alignment with your desired outcome (income.) While you are in the process of discovery we will hold the conclusion you desire as already achieved. This adds energy to your desires, when two or more people agree there is a power in the universe that stands as the conclusion being realized. That is what we mean when we say we hold the light for you until you can hold it yourself. Your light is brightened by our powerful intentions, then it is easier for you to change your agreements, perceptions, beliefs and actions to transform your life.

2012 Living Consciously, how does it affect health?
Jan 25th, 2012 by karencoach
This weeks question comes from a former health coach and colleague.
Good health probably tops my chart as one of life’s most important matters how does living consciously create good health?
Let me begin by introducing you to a term we use around the office; Total Holistic Integrated System (T.H.I.S.).
We describe T.H.I.S. as your mind, spirit, emotional and physical bodies, expressed as an integrated self-support system.
T.H.I.S. produces waves in the quantum field, electromagnetic signals, brain waves, and energy signatures. When we live consciously we recognize that we are the expression of life through trillions of cells, thoughts, perceptions, beliefs, attitudes, personality traits, emotions, and fields of awareness. Each one of us is a unique whole self-support system, and eco-system combined into T.H.I.S.
Health is a perfect expression of all systems operating at optimum levels. Symptoms show up when one or more of our expressions are out of balance. A symptom might show up as a cold, but it could also be an unhealthy thought, an argument with a loved one, a defining moment of drama or trauma in your life, a financial struggle, numbing out to television, addictions, hurting yourself, a car wreck, losing your keys or cancer, the list goes on.
When in perfect health the flow of life empowers us to live fully, and our experience of life is enriched beyond measure. Louise L. Hay says you can heal your life with your thoughts, Biology of Belief author Bruce Lipton agrees and tells us in detail the biology. I however, think it is only one aspect of living consciously.
Yes, we can change our mind and transform our life. But we can also recognize that we are working with the consequences of past agreements in our present state of mind. By removing old habits that amass toxins in the body, mind, spirit and emotional bodies we begin to…
Avoid unwanted damage, use the right tool for the job!
…Express ourselves in healthy ways. Living consciously allows us to understand our thoughts, perceptions, agreements and actions which can either break down our optimum health or achieve it. Recognizing we are not our past, we can stop adding to our toxic burden. Forgiveness is a key factor in letting the detoxification process clear out old agreements and start building new healthier expressions of T.H.I.S. Grace and gratitude begins to add to a healthier mindset.
When we understand what thoughts, for us (it is unique for each person) are toxic we can begin to add new healthier thoughts to our emotional diet. For instance, anger can be healthy, or it can be a toxin, depending on the user. Yes, at GreenMountain Enrichment and Empowerment Center we see emotions as tools, but used improperly they can cause unwanted damage, like using a jack hammer to fix a windowpane. We achieve success when we use the right tool for the right job.
Our body is a very complex system. To maintain optimum health, for example, being aware of how foods interact with our unique system is to understand what is good for us, individually. For instance one person may love peanuts and crave 
them from time to time as a way to get essential nutrients the body needs. While another person may die from eating a single peanut. Each person is uniquely different, and self-knowledge gives you the awareness of your uniqueness as an expression of T.H.I.S.
The first step is to recognize what is, and what is not working for you. The next step is to accept what is, and begin to address what isn’t working, while giving deep gratitude for what is.
Living Consciously allows you to become aware and make choices based on what is best for your unique self-support system.
Our emotional body affects our physical body. The physical body affects our emotional body and so on with T.H.I.S. We are beginning to see a trend with a select few elite cancer centers around the USA who recognize cancer can be affected by emotional and spiritual health. We know that if we are emotionally “stressed” it can cause physical stress, etc.
At GreenMountain Enrichment and Empowerment Center we teach through our classes that ego allows us to decipher signposts to reveal what needs to be healed. We give people tools to understand the signals of emotions, and feelings sensed in the body. These tools allow us to decipher information that cannot be spoken. We use reality checks and perspective checks to test the validity of the information deciphered. In my opinion we as a race have a lot to learn about being human.

[As a side note: We adopted the term "T.H.I.S. i"n 2009, as a way to discuss the expression of life. In 2011 we thought the term was a very serendipitous expression after we found the book "I Am That I Am: A Tribute to Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj [Paperback] Stephen Wolinsky” (you can find it on amazon). We discovered throughout the world different terms are used to express what we are. At the root level we are an expression of Source energy. Some people call that God, some people call that Life, some people call that Gia. To us the term is a way to express a complex system of everything that exists. You could call it BLJDFASDFITENNSR, what we discovered is we needed a way to describe the wholeness of our expression, the gestalt of the expression of “I Am That I Am”.
