May 2014 Dreamer Sight Newsletter
Vision
This month's picture amuses me, since I'm "out there" speaking
in public, yet also hidden in the shadows, where I am usually
more comfortable. Now that the sun is so high in the sky here in
NY, I'm more aware of the contrast between light and shadow than
I am during the Winter months, when it can be pretty
dim and gray even in midday.
The healthy eye is comfortable in and fed by natural
full-spectrum sunlight. It rests and renews itself best in total
darkness. The pupil in the center of the eye opens wide to let in
more light when it's darker out, and closes a bit when it's bright.
Paradoxically, spending time
in full sunlight will help you see better after dark. You want
the muscles of your pupils to be flexible and responsive, opening
and closing easily, to see well in all levels of light.
Here
is an article with more about light sensitivity.
EFT
At the end of April my EFT coaching teacher
Carol Look
hosted a graduation/mastermind weekend for her brand-new Abundance Coaches.
I am so proud of this certification! It represents a year of hard
work, learning, and both personal and professional growth.
I saw the power of EFT repeatedly reduce or eliminate common human
concerns like feeling inadequate, or overwhelmed, or unsure of the
next step. Under Carol's expert guidance over the weekend,
a skilled professional woman's performance anxiety was traced
back to a speech she gave in 8th
grade, when she hadn't prepared sufficiently! She released this
with some tapping, and we could all see her personal confidence
swell.
EFT is a modality which I am excited to share with my clients,
to help remove roadblocks left over from their past which get in the
way of their current progress. Why
keep lugging around that old baggage? It may have been useful
at one time, but it is only holding you back today.
Here
you will find a brief description of EFT, to help you better
understand its power.
Dreams
Last night I dreamed I was listening to a healing teleclass
on-line, when I recognized a male caller's voice. It was one
of my fellow Abundance Coaching graduates from last weekend!
He was speaking
authoritatively about his work in guiding people through life
transitions, like the death of a spouse or the loss of a long
career. These were the very topics he'd mentioned during
our class as wanting to focus on in his coaching.
I'll share this dream with him, and it reminds me of an
important fact about dreams. They show us a possible future.
If we like the scenario, we can keep steering toward it with our
intention and our actions, and make it more likely to come true.
If we don't, say if it seems to be a warning of a possible health
problem, we can steer away from this unwanted future by taking
appropriate steps. Dreams are meant as guidance -- what we do with
that guidance is up to us. I'm guessing my fellow Abundance Coach
will be pleased with this dream, since it feels like confirmation
that he is on the right track.
More Vision
Recently I was asked how to reduce a strong
eyeglasses prescription.
Unfortunately, there's no accurate formula for this,
since people are not machines, and emotions play such a
large part in eyesight. One person may be fine for most
activities with a 20/50 correction, for example, while another
may be frightened and feel unsafe.
It's best to work with a behavioral optometrist to get a full
eye exam and rule out any problems, then get a 20/40 pair of
glasses, ideally with no astigmatism correction. You might be
able to slowly step down further after this on your own, buying
glasses on-line, if you start from a solid baseline.
Even most traditional old-school eye doctors will give you
"computer glasses", which will be about 20/40, when
they wouldn't be comfortable prescribing 20/40 distance glasses.
Then you can use these to let your eyes relax more, giving
them room to improve. Make sure you are safe and legal when you
drive, please. See the eye doctor as a valuable resource,
knowledgeable in his area of expertise and training. Don't waste
your energy resenting him for not being more holistic.
What's coming up for me
At the beginning of June I'll be in Arizona for
more energy medicine training, and to graduate as a Level III
LifeForce Coach certified by
Deborah King.
I'm excited about what new energy healing techniques I may learn,
and of course about this additional coaching certification.
Each new practice or modality added to my healing/coaching toolkit
improves my own life, and is good for my clients. Every little
bit helps!
Fee increase coming soon
All my learning and practice this past year to become one of
Carol Look's
certified Abundance Coaches has greatly benefitted my EFT clients
already. And with my upcoming
certification in LifeForce Coaching Level III from
Deborah King,
I will be able to help my clients even more effectively.
Therefore, I will be
raising my fees slightly in early July. So if you have always
wanted to book a coaching session with me, now may be the time!
See the links near the top of the page, right below the one to my
website, to do so. I'd love to work with you.
I welcome your feedback
Let me know if you have questions or comments about vision or
dreams or EFT, or if there is a specific topic you'd like me to
address next time. If you have a friend who'd benefit from this
newsletter, feel free to pass it along, and send me their email
so they'll be sure to get next month's issue.
I'd enjoy hearing from you. Have a great May!
