Combining traditional and alternative forms of treatment

for a unique approach to wellness.

What the Heart Wants
I often work with preteens, adolescents and adults on deciding (or discovering) what their heart wants them to do.

It's about making choices, both on a smaller level-  "what do I really want to wear today in order to express my true self?" and on a more profound scale- "how can I make a difference?" 

 

A simple activity on how to get to know yourself better and to listen to what your heart wants is to learn from the discomfort when you are NOT doing what it is you really want to do. If you are doing something because you think you should, or because someone else is making you do it, you WILL feel this discomfort in your body somewhere - whether it be headaches, stomach aches or a general unsettled feeling. As opposed to denying these symptoms or avoiding them altogether, consider listening to them. Your body is likely telling you what it is you need to do: Something different!  

Once you recognize the "wrong way" signs, you can then ask yourself, "what is it that I really want to do?"
How to do this is to block everyone else in your life out of your thoughts and then focus on your options.  Usually what is best for you personally will bring a feeling of empowerment, and ultimately a feeling of freedom. 

So this month, give yourself a gift in working with choosing for yourself what YOUR heart wants.  It's a fun exercise and can also be eye opening for those of you who may have come to realize you may not have listened to the true voice of your highest self in a long time.

 

Happy June!
