How to Expand in a Time of Contraction
For many it is a time of uncertainty. Change is definitely in the air.
As our normal existence begins to be turned upside down we often scramble around for
safety and cling to what is familiar. Now however, might be just the
time to let go and trust that it will all work out just right.
Times of chaos are also times of reorganization. As things break apart
they are able to come back together in a more unified pattern. Chaos is
not a bad thing; it is a time to look inside and allow yourself to unfold
into a new place.
As change occurs there are some simple reminders that will help all of
us make it through uncertainty. For instance, many people wish to curl
up in a ball and run and hide in the closet when change knocks on their front door. The
solution is to come out of your shell and try some new things. For instance, get
involved in a support system or start a Mastermind Group. Continue to
nurture yourself in some of the simplest of ways. Instead
of running away for a 3-day costly escape, spend a little money
receiving a massage at a local spa. You will still enjoy that relaxed feeling
without having to break the bank to do so. |

Nonviolent Communication
A book by
Marshal B. Rosenberg, Ph.D.
We live in an age where there are more and more technological devices than ever before, yet we still do not know how to communicate. From text messages to email, cell phones to faxes, our communication level remains at a kindergarten level. While technology might be creeping ahead with faster ways to send and receive messages, the content of those messages remains at a lower vibrational level. For instance, a common perception is that many people text message each other because they are bored rather than the fact that they might actually have something important to say.
Marshal B. Rosenberg Ph.D. has created a wonderful and fulfilling instrument for communication called "Nonviolent Communication". Within his work he is able to teach others how to resolve any conflict with engaged and reflective listening. According to Rosenberg, one can even resolve a conflict with one's chosen enemy if he uses some of his techniques. The secret lies in attempting to find something, no matter how small or insignificant, to agree upon. Focus on what you agree upon and not on your differences.
This authentic form of communication can be used in any environment, from teachers to business professionals, and parents to therapists.

Finding the Right Words
a book by
Wilfred Bockelman
What do you say when someone dies? How do you manage the awkward moments when dear friends go through a divorce? When someone is sick and ailing what words do you choose to comfort them?
We are often at a loss for words when words can do the most good. We often avoid situations and people where we do not know what to say. This often makes matters worse and creates more confusion and awkwardness.
Many times the best thing to say is, "I don't know what to say". Follow this up with a sincere, "What can I do?" After that it may just be time to listen. Learning to communicate ought to take place before a difficult situation emerges.
