Greetings!
Monday, (6/29 at 9pm ET) is our monthly telegathering and I'll be joined by James Van Praagh, author of "Unfinished Business:What the Dead Can Teach Us About Life." We'll be talking about a variety of topics -mediumship, The Ghost Whisperer (James is the Executive Producer), skeptics who question this ability, and the important things he's learned from those who have passed on. Send your questions by hitting reply to this newsletter (he won't be doing readings so please ask general questions). Please put "telegathering" in the subject line. And to join us on the call, dial (646) 519-5883 and use pincode 2346# promptly at 9pm ET.
Follow me on Twitter (username coachoncall) and on my Facebook page here. I'd love to connect with you in this new way. This week I spontaneously had lunch with a group of Facebook/Twitter friends in Boulder,Co, and I'll be doing it again. Also, don't forget to check out the new Grace Care and Self Care Card apps for the iphone on itunes.com
Have a great week!
Love,
Cheryl

Topic of the Week
|
|
"The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more in life there is to celebrate."
Oprah Winfrey
Every year at Week 26, I invite members of this community to stop and reflect on the positive changes they've made in their lives. This week we've reached that half-way mark, and it's time to acknowledge the steps you've taken thus far. Remember, the quality of your life is directly related to the quality of relationship you have with yourself. When you feel good about who you are, you allow better things - people, experiences, jobs, opportunities, etc., into your life. Taking the time to inventory your positive changes is an important step in developing this stronger relationship. And it's a key way to reinforce good habits!
If you've been in our Life Makeover community from the beginning of the year, you might want to review this year's newsletters to help you remember the changes you've made. If you're new to the community (welcome!) don't worry. Answer the following questions anyway. You can review past newsletters by visiting our archives here.
Using the archives as a guide, reflect on the last six months and consider questions like:
1. How well have you learned to manage your mind?
2. What positive changes have you made to your home or office?
3. Are you listening to and taking good care of your body?
4. How have you learned to protect your sensitivity?
5. Have you been able to stop rushing and be more present to your life?
6. Are you better able to focus on the actions that matter at the start of your day?
7. How have you been a better partner, spouse, friend, or co-worker?
As you consider these questions, build a strong foundation for success by focusing on what's worked instead of focusing on what still needs to change. When you acknowledge your growth, you build self-respect and self-trust - two key ingredients that will support you in making healthier choices for you and your loved ones from this point on.
The greatest gift we give to humanity is our commitment to constantly raise our level of consciousness. Each week, as you take one simple step to live a healthier, more creative life, you do just that. This is important work and you deserve to celebrate your success. So, be sure to complete our weekly challenge. Congratulations! |

Take Action Challenge
Make a list of at least five positive changes you've made so far this year. Open a file on your computer right now labeled "My Success List" and put the five items on the list (add it to a prior list if you've done this before). It's extremely important to put this list in writing. By doing so, you send a message to yourself that you're worth the time and energy. And, when your self-worth increases, the world responds accordingly. You become a magnet for better life experiences.
If you belong to a Life Makeover Group, celebrate your success together. If not, share your accomplishments with a friend or family member. Then, spend an afternoon at the beach, take yourself to the theater, enjoy dinner with a friend, or buy yourself a gift. Don't just move onto the next to-do item or goal. Stop and reward yourself for all your hard work!
