Creating an Intentional Year!

Share

My experience has been that you will find that these types of intentions reflect your true desires more than setting specific targets for sales or income, more than determining how many pounds you will lose or some other thing you don’t like about yourself that you wish you had the motivation to overcome.

When you begin to focus on the type of person you want to be, your motivation is so much more real than just setting targets to attain. When you focus on your contribution to the world rather than changing the specifics of your situation to be easier and more fun, you begin to focus in ways that don’t feel like chores, rather they feel like gifts you are giving yourself and others.

BE THE TYPE OF PERSON who lives a healthy life.

BE THE TYPE OF PERSON who contributes to others.

BE THE TYPE OF PERSON who does the things you find challenging before doing what’s fun.

BE THE TYPE OF PERSON who focuses on the area that is weakest and builds it up so that all the other areas of your life benefit in the process.

BE THE TYPE OF PERSON who cares, who listens, who thinks and grows.

BE THE TYPE OF PERSON who is other focused rather than self centered.

BECOME THE TYPE OF PERSON you admire.

My first session of Dr Gary Null’s Health Support Group

Share

Last Monday night was the launch of our local Gary Null, PhD Health Support Group. A couple of months ago, I was invited to facilitate as a Life Coach and Wellness Consultant.

I had no idea that everything in my past would lead me up to this moment in time. My years of experience with business, event promotion, coaching and even health. I have been reminiscing about my past experience with Equinox International and Conscious Living Partnership which brings me to this point with confidence and certainty.

This is a powerful lifestyle modification program that individuals can join at any point, to get a baseline of their health, learn directly from Dr. Null and through different lifestyle choices….experience shifts and changes in our lives.

One of the challenges with learning new things is the process of self actualization. We go to seminars get all “jacked ?!?!?!?!(HYPED UP)?!?!?! up” and don’t always make the changes. It is process of implementation that becomes difficult. This is why having a coach or team is so powerful. They help hold me accountable! So I am thrilled to have this health support group. We have 2 Medical Doctors, a Registered Nurse and other health experts that are participating. It was magical to see the resources and support that everyone has contributed.

I have been really lazy and in denial of my potential and health. I can talk the talk but not always walk the walk. This week we watched “7 Steps to Perfect Health” (which you can purchase for only $16) then we completed a 9 page questionaire and took our measurements, blood pressure and more.

What an amazing “Ah Ha moment” the questionaire was for me!

Let me share with you some of the questions….

Do you believe that lifestyle changes can have an impact on your lifespan?

Are you prepared to make changes in your lifestyle that may increase your lifespan?

How many times to you wash your hands?

How many vacations (4 or more days) do you take in a year?

Do you nap during the day on a regular basis?

Of the people in your life that have hurt you, what percentage have you forgiven?

How many minutes in an average day do you take for self-reflection, mediation or breath-work?

Here are just a few from the 9 pages. I think everyone could benefit from this questionaire. It really help me get in touch with myself at a deeper level. I found myself thinking about things I want to change like my gray hair, weak nails and such!

I am so honored and blessed to be leading this group. I get to really experience first hand the changes.

This week the protocol is:

Journaling, juicing celery, cucumber and apples, eating only what gives my body energy or healing, doing 1-2 hours exercise and powerwalking everyday, drink one glass red and one glass green stuff and protein drink (Gary’s world famous powder drinks).

Mind Control at Gary Null’s Retreat

Share

Yesterday was my 5th day of a 4 week retreat with Gary Null at his Paradise Garden’s in Naples Florida. Check it out!! Everyday at 7 am we go to the track to power walk or run. My first day was 3 miles and the very next day it went to 4 miles. I had the opportunity to be with Gary personally for most of the track, thank goodness. I am learning so much and excited to share what’s happening, my inspired insights and what’s up with mind control.

For starters, I am not physically fit and 3-4 miles by itself was out of my comfort zone and painful. When on the track yesterday, I was in complete silence and really observing my mind and how it wanted to “take me out” or “make excuses”. Maybe you can relate, as I began to see how I do this in almost every area of my life, from food, exercise, business and relationships. I am excited to share tools I used that Gary has gracefully reminded me about.

As my miles got higher and I got more exhausted this is what was going on inside on my mind:

“My knee’s hurt”

“My back and shoulders hurt”

“I have had surgery”

“Why isn’t anyone else here?”

“Gary is on the air (radio) this morning, he will never know how many laps I do”

“3 miles is enough for me today, I have been working out hard everyday”

“I have been doing this everyday, my body needs a break”

“If they aren’t doing it, why should I?”

“I am hurting”

“I can’t do this anymore I am going to fall over”

I wanted to quit over 100 times!! I could hear Gary in the back of my mind saying it takes commitment, discipline, focus and mastery to live an empowered life.

We did an exercise the first day in the gym where he asked me to do the MOST I could do of an exercise. Upon completion, he showed me the timer and immediately I said “2 minutes, that’s not long at all”….he reminded me that was my mind going to the dark side (he has a great film with Debbie Ford and Bruce Lipton called “Overcoming the Darkside”)! THEN THE MAGIC HAPPENED! He did an energy exchange with me and I started the exercise again….this time I had a 400% increase! Wow, I had the power to do so much more than I imagined!

Every time I wanted to quit…..
I told my mind “STOP”.
I stayed focused on the goal and commitment.
Reminded myself that I can MASTER anything and this is part of the mastering process!
I held this image of finishing and what that would feel like to celebrate this success.
The BIGGEST this was telling my mind I am in control….I get to choose….no more excuses or reasons, they are not me, just my mind/ego trying to take me out.

Lesson is for me is to be aware of my mind and with discipline and focus I can control it! No more excuses!
TODAY’s UPDATE: GARY added 2 more miles. YES 6 miles!!! Immediately my mind went to all kinds of stuff including wining and complaining (imagine that)….however I am excited to say I did all 6 miles and it was easier than I thought with my new tools for mind control and focus on mastery!!Look forward to your feedback and comments! Your truly inspire me.

Radial Change “Shift Happens”

Share

A few weeks ago I decided to make some radial changes in my life and take my power back in some areas that I have given it away. I have had this habit of taking care of people to the detriment of my own health, personallity and even my business. Part of my SHIFT involved me moving out of my home, not only to downsize but to aid in movement of my roommate that continues to show-up at my doorstep in need of a place to live. The roommate happens to be a dear friend and my childrens father. It’s not an easy thing to let go of that relationship, as it was currently shaped. Love how it is shaping now!

Today for breakfast, I went into the kitchen for coffee and my normal behavior is to eat what’s EASY. I do not usually cook and especially not for myself. Then when I decided to cook something for myself, massive emotions and memories came up around how many times I would starve myself and not care for myself nutritiously, unless there were other people to cook or care for. It is sad to think that I am the last one on my list….until now! Learning to love and honor myself is so powerful.

As this journey is progressing many of my relationships are changing. I am seeing where I do not set boundries or honor my truth in many situations. People pleasing, can anyone relate? I even allow people to give hurtful input about how I should or shouldn’t live my life. My favorite “speak my truth moment” was so beautiful, when at the start, this individual said “I know this will be for the highest good of both of us”. WOW! We can really create these type of relationships in our life that honor us, honoring ourselves!

Where can you honor yourself more? What boundries do you have?

Are there times when you do things out of obligation or people pleasing?

What can you let go of, that is no longer serving your highest good?

Thank you again for your continued feedback and support on this amazing journey called LIFE

I’m coming OUT!

Share

First – Can anyone relate to wanting to get it “perfect”? So much that it stops you, at times from doing things that bring you joy and inspire others? For the last 6+ months I have wanted to post blogs, but worried about my grammar and my ability to communicate. There is also a fear of sharing conflicting thoughts or beliefs that may be judged.

Well, I’m coming OUT!

I am over being perfect! Or I am going to “know” that as long as I am doing the best I can, that IS perfect! So as I start my journey of BLOGGING and sharing the “heart and mind” of Shannon, please know that I am doing the best I can and that will include grammar error once in awhile. And some topic may push your buttons. Just know that in the heart of hearts….I live and breathe this vision and mission!

Second – Will anyone want to read and can I inspire others with my journey? That’s a crazy question! I know that I inspire everyday our staff, friends and family. Why not share the lessons I have learned, joy and challenges with others on a larger scale?

I’m coming OUT!

Yes, I am certain that will this journey of building a company, Conscious Living Partnership, will inspire others or maybe get them to look at life with a different pair of glasses. I know that being a “MAGNET” for innovate products and services, spiritual mentors and conscious businesses guru’s is a powerful place of learning that I would love to share.

Will you come out with me? I invite you to enjoy this journey of self discovery with me! I will share joy, challenges, conflicts and much more! I would appreciate all comments to learn and grow, even if you disagree! Because I believe every challenge or conflict is an opportunity for growth and transformation. So please share!
