Creating Your Personal environment
There are special benefits to creating your own "sacred space" for your phone sessions.
Instead of being subjected to
someone else’s idea of comfort when meeting with your Life Coach &
Holistic Counselor in person, you have complete control over the design
of your own environment.
●
Minimize interruptions by alerting other household
members or business associates of your need for a specific time of
uninterrupted quiet and privacy.
● If
you have call waiting, check with your phone service provider for the
code to deactivate this feature for the duration of your session.
● Placing
a "Do Not Disturb" sign on your outer door may deter survey takers,
sales people or other unexpected visitors.
●
If privacy is a problem, some creative alternatives
might include using your portable phone outside or in another area of
the home or in a private area in your place of business.
●
A cell phone could be used while leaning back in the seat of your
parked car, lounging on the beach, or visiting a park.
NOTE: If
using a cell phone, make certain that you are in a strong signal
area, and that it is fully charged.
In addition, use a hands-free
wireless or wired headset, or ear piece when in public.
If using a landline, I recommend
using a headset or speaker phone feature, if possible. Most wired phones
today come equipped with a jack for plugging in a headset.
If you do not have a headset and
would like to purchase one, generally a good quality one can be
purchased for around $30-$40 from any electronics store such as Radio
Shack, Best Buy or electronic departments in major retail stores. Another possibility is using a
speaker phone.
If none of these options work for you, consider relaxing
on your bed, couch, recliner, or other comfortable chair and using
pillows to create a support for your phone receiver.
Skype is another popular method for free phone calls
worldwide. There are also other options that you could explore, if you
wish.

There are three main reasons for
having your hands free. One is simple comfort. Another is so that you
can easily take notes when appropriate or desired.
In addition, if you are doing any
visualization type exercises such as goal setting, hypnotherapy or
therapeutic processing, by having your hands
free, you can be much more relaxed and effectively engaged in the
process of internal focusing.
Other processes such as anchoring
and tapping may require both hands free.
Some of the applications we may
use could include altered states of consciousness work.
This is simply a matter of closing
your eyes, leaning back, and going within where you will be guided into
opening that channel of communication with your own unconscious or
subconscious mind.
The value
of this kind of work is that imagination is the tool for communicating,
reprogramming, editing, and releasing old unconscious behaviours,
old blocks, old
out-dated negative or limiting beliefs, and unwanted attitudes that are
stuck at the deeper level.
While in
this powerful meditative
state, physical comfort with the hands free promotes a more successful
outcome.

Deciding whether to sit or lie down depends on a
couple of factors. A recliner is ideal; however, stretching out on a
bed, couch, floor, mat, or the beach in comfortable weather, is quite
acceptable.
On the other hand, if you are very tired and have a
tendency to drop off to sleep, it may be better to sit in a comfortable
chair where you can just lean back.
If you decide to sit, a reclining chair can provide
the most comfort. If you sit erect, it is important that your spine is
straight and your head is balanced over your body.
Otherwise, arrange pillows or other support for your
head and neck if you decide to lean back in a chair or on a couch.

● Paper
and a pen for notes or other assignments, if you wish.
● A
glass or bottle of water. If we are the least bit dehydrated--and often we are
unaware of it--we can enter a state of what I call, "Polarity Reversal."
●
Our
coordination may be off or we may feel awkward
● We
might be stumbling about or our timing is off
●
Confusion
prevails
●
We
tend to drop things
●
We become
forgetful
●
We
lose things
●
We
feel anxious or restless
●
We
are talking non-stop as a way to avoid dealing with an issue
● We
feel irritable or grumpy
● When
taking notes, some of our letters or numbers may be reversed
●
Medications
may not work
●
Nothing
seems to be working including
Holistic
Counseling and Advanced Hypnotherapy by phone.
When this condition occurs, take a
deep breath, and then take a drink of water!
NOTE: Other
liquid beverages will not bring about the same result of putting you
back into balance.
We may find ourselves in and out
of this state much of the time. Some things that will put us into the
"Polarity Reversal" state are, for example, a co-worker tells us in a
rather ominous tone of voice that the boss wants to see us, or someone
gives us a hard time, or we are remembering an unpleasant event, and so
on.
There are many simple ways to get
back into balance. One, of course, is taking that drink of water.
Another more spontaneous way is
when someone gives us a "warm fuzzy" or compliment, or when we put
ourselves in a good mood by doing or thinking of something pleasant or
fun. A warm heart-to-heart hug from someone special works too!

● If
you decide to do your phone work indoors, avoid lighting that might
glare in your eyes.
● Check
to see if the air temperature is comfortable. Adjust it, if needed.
● If
you enjoy burning incense, or scented candles, then do so. Some clients
find the sound of a circulating water fountain to be soothing.
●
Playing
soft music or environmental ocean or country sounds in the background is
another idea.
By taking the time to create your own sacred space
during each call, you will begin to associate it with achieving profound
and exciting results.
Use your imagination to create or find an environment
that feels good, and contributes the most to your personal success
