What's holding you back from creating the life you deserve?

Working with many clients over the years and support them in making the changes necessary to reach their goals, I discovered a common thread in what the biggest challenge was. I also conducted a survey which reinforced my conclusion and observation that the no.1 thing that holds people back is FEAR. "False Evidence Appearing Real"

Fear can be crippling, debilitating, frustrating and can hold you back from moving forward in the direction you want for your life. At the same time it can be a powerful driving force, if used positively to drive you forward and catapult you to change. If the fear of not making the change is more fearful than actually feeling it and doing it anyway!

How does Fear show up in your life? If you are not achieving your goals and dreams, living the life you want, what is stopping you?

Is it Fear of failure? Is it underlying not  having the confidence or the courage to step out of yourself and just go for it regardless of the result. I call this the what if attitude…what if I fail? Well, what if you succeeded?

Is it fear of success? If you become too successful you may lose friends and family because you have grown above and beyond their success level. If you are excelling and achieving amazing success the fear may be that you will lose them and they may feel insecure or inadequate. So its easier to stay where you won't outshine them. Mostly unconsciously of course! I call this the mediocre attitude…if I stay where I’m at I won’t intimidate or lose my friends and family. What if, you could support then and help make a difference in their lives with your success or take them along for the ride with you?

Is it fear of change? If I change what I’m doing in my life or career I will be out of my comfit zone because I don't know what else I can do. Being comfortable means being safe and secure, even though I am struggling and unhappy. I call this the complacent or comfortable attitude...What if it was doing something you are really passionate about and you had the support of people who believed in you? Could this be your new safety and security formula for success?

Is it fear of the unknown? The feeling of not knowing what could or if it is possible for you to achieve your dreams? I call this the doubtful attitude...What if you went on a journey of self-discovery and you could really delve into the depths of unlimited possibilities that is all around you? How would that feel?

There are many forms of fear and you may not even recognize it as Fear as it can manifest as something else. Stress, lack of confidence, self-esteem, self-image, addictions, negative behaviors, negative beliefs, control and other negative emotions. It is a result of a memory or perception from the past that is controlling your life and your future. Linked to our past conditioning's and experiences that create our beliefs and behaviors good and bad. It controls us and unconsciously pulls us away  from what is truly possible! FEAR is really just energy that we're familiar with, that we put a label on and that label controls you.

When we dive into a journey of self-discovery we can change the way we see, act, do and be in the world. We dissolve the fear we have become so familiar with over the years and break though the issues that hold you back from living the life you desire and deserve. A more for filled and joyful one!

Not everyone is willing or ready to go on this journey because for some, it is easier to stay the same. It takes courage to step out of your comfort zone and be prepared to do the work required to make these changes. For others it serves them to stay in the energy of unhappiness and discomfort living this way. On an unconscious level it gives them what they need, even if in a negative way, it serves a need at some level. The need to be loved, to be connected, to be accepted.

You CAN breakthrough this FEAR if you are willing to commit to getting results instead of living the story of why you are not achieving or living the life you desire.

Make a shift by deciding today that you are willing to face your fear of whatever it is that's holding you back and take massive action to doing something about it! Find something that is more fearful or painful, that will make you move. By NOT taking action towards what you want, where will you be in 5 years from now?

Find the excitement in the journey and dance with your Fear!

IS YOUR MIND CREATING DIS EASE IN YOUR BODY?

Having spent 30 years in the wellness industry and personally coaching hundreds of people to live an extraordinary healthier life has been a blessing. This lead me on a path of self discovery and the study of human behavior, finding the tools of transformation that is making a powerful impact in a positive way.
I originally started Transformation Wellness Coaching out of my concern of the alarming and increasing epidemic of overweight/obesity problems in the world. The statistics stated that 60% of deaths are a direct result of diet related diseases and 70% of Doctors visits are related to nutritional deficiencies! I was totally shocked..
This started me on on a journey of searching for answers and after many hours of research  I concluded that this was an end result of deeper issues. I became super curious, wondering why people were doing the behaviors that resulted in overweight, obesity, disease, etc?  Through studying the mind more intensely I realised our unconscious negative thinking and self talk played a big part in created it all...our eating issues, our behaviors, beliefs and even the fear actually getting the disease. I'd discovered that the real key was directly or indirectly linked to our mind.
What was most fascinating was that some of the case studies I read about where people whom have had the most impeccable clean diets of organic and chemical free foods, lived relatively stress free lives doing all the right things like yoga and meditation, though had become a victim of disease, in particular Cancer. 
This made me even more curious and I delved further. Interviewing, reading and consulting with individuals whom contracted various eating disorders and diseases, concluded that the MIND did in fact play a very big part in creating the disease. Exploration and unraveling peoples past experiences revealed that the relationship between the disease and these past experiences created the negative beliefs, behaviours and patterns which inevitably created the disease or emotional eating habits. Discovering and exploring these links with the client enabled the healing process to unfold.
When you aligning your unconscious thinking with conscious awareness you can truly change your life!
Becoming aware of your self talk, your negative beliefs and behaviors can be the first step to creating a healthier more powerful, positive you.
Now think about....what are you thinking about or saying to yourself? Are they words of love, respect and encouragement?
When you aligning your unconscious thinking with conscious awareness you can truly change your life!
Remember..We DO have the power over what we create in our bodies and our lives.
"The Mind"- The most powerful tool we have for creating a healthy body and healthy long life!
