April 7, 2016 – How can we feel more empowered when experiencing deep loneliness?
Kira Asatryan, author of Stop Being Lonely: Three Simple Steps to Developing Close Friendships and Deep Relationships explains that lonliness is not our fault – it’s a common emotional state and we CAN do something about it.
Developing “closeness” with others involves:
1. Knowing
2. Caring
3. Mastering closeness
And as it’s explained in our interview, you don’t have to become a social butterfly in order to make this happen.
Formal Bio:
I’m a certified relationship coach, author, blogger, loneliness expert, and speaker. I love to speak publicly on the topic of loneliness, as it’s a problem of epidemic proportions in our modern times. I maintain a private coaching practice in San Francisco where I help business partners, couples, and individuals develop closeness – the antidote to loneliness – in their relationships.
I have a unique passion for those who feel lonely in this world. I understand the unique challenges that lonely people face because I face them as well. I’ve struggled with loneliness my whole life and have come to find that there are many others out there like me. We are the people who, despite excellent intentions, find it hard to get to know people and find it hard to believe that anyone cares about us. If you relate to this, I can assure you you’re not alone.
I’ve spent my coaching career researching, pondering, and reflecting upon what specifically makes relationships feel good or bad. The results of my efforts can be found in my book, my articles, my talks, and I believe they will help you immensely.
You can stop being lonely. You’ve already taken the first step.

By Todd Alan – and excerpt from his new book, Life Mastery Keys.
The word “Namaste” spoken in the Hindi language across India and the world by Indian people is a common greeting that means, “The spirit or light within me recognizes and honors the spirit or light in you.” You recognize and acknowledge the light that shines from others and the power of the light that shines from you as well.
Many times I’ve heard the question, “How do you see the good in other people when there’s so much bad in the world?”
My answer is if you love and appreciate Spirit first, then it starts becoming easier to love and appreciate other people. Besides you can’t have the good without the bad. They’re merely bookends on the same shelf.
When you start seeing the good in others it’s also much easier to begin seeing the good, loving, compassionate, kind, funny, creative, intelligent aspects of you. Many people find their ability to accept and appreciate the differences in people grows as they
let Spirit in their lives.
It’s a positive, upward spiral that allows the conditions of your life and your thoughts about your life grow better.
As a constant reminder of their positive and negative thoughts many people will put a rubber band around one wrist in the morning. When they recognize a negative thought popping up they’ll switch the rubber band to the other wrist.
The idea is to gradually keep the rubber band on the same wrist all day long. Make a commitment to your own spiritual and personal growth to better yourself. It will keep you in the groove and over time begin transforming your life.
Whether it’s part of an organized religion or you do your own thing it’ll be easier for you to recognize Spirit in other people and see them for who they are without judgment.

Because we think we need to hide to be loved and accepted.
This dilemma, so easily created, gets us in major trouble.

What’s a good way to discover your purpose as a Millennial?
Start by visualizing. Determine what you want to create five years from now. Write a detailed scenario of your life five years from today. Write down your vision in the first person, which means using “I statements.”
Stephen Covey, author of “Seven Habits of Highly Effective People” said, “Start with the end in mind.” Write as if you’re the leading actor in the play which is your life. Do it in full sensory detail and describe:
- What do you see?
- What do you feel?
- What do you smell?
- What do you taste?
- What do you hear?
Create your vision and give it serious thought. Napoleon Hill, the author of the classic book “Think and Grow Rich” calls the Vision Statement “A Statement of Desire.”
Once you’re happy with your Vision Statement read through it daily with energy and enthusiasm. As you put energy and momentum into it, you bring it closer to you.
Vision boards can be a handy tool. Honing in on what your life looks like is helpful. Create a collage using pictures from magazines or print stock photos from online. Or create a screen shot and use your vision board as a screen saver. Others enjoy doing it offline with scissors and glue. Use words and phrases on your vision board, too. Include as much detail as you can, but don’t obsess over it. Create a clear picture and release it like sending a prayer up to Spirit to work on it and manifest it. It’s powerful stuff.

March 29, 2016 – What kind of relationship do you want to have with your children when they’re older?
By holding that vision of what that relationship will be like in our mind, Sharon Ballantine believes parents can find ways to support them better when they’re young.
We don’t want our children to grow up fearful and judgmental, so we can’t be fearful and judgmental about them when they’re young.
“If we want to experience positivity and good energy, we have to exude it.”
Her book is titled The Art of Blissful Parenting.
Formal Bio:
As the Mother of three grown children whom are happy functional adults, I have the life experience to help you have the relationship you want with your kids. Not every moment of my parenting was blissful, and after years of trying what didn’t work, my studies in the Law of Attraction helped teach me what did.
What kind of relationship do you want to have with your kids?
Do you know how to clearly set your intention in your parenting?
Do you want more freedom in your relationship with your kids?
What do you believe about your children and also about your parenting?
Do you trust your child’s Internal Guidance System?
By working with me, I will help answer all of these powerful questions and many more. My work with you will also dispel the limiting beliefs that stand in your way of having the relationship you want with your kids.
Parenting is a continual process and we want the best for our children. Clear communication and harmony is absolutely possible with our kids. And parenting from our place of alignment (our place of feeling good) is the most powerful way we can inspire and guide our kids.

March 15, 2016 – My little brother was cute, endearing, and kind. He was also a little tattletale. He’d tell on me for common pre-teen lying, especially when it came to boys who might stop by after school.
This was during the flirting years when I kept my hands to myself and giggled a lot. Still, the tattling would lead to blaming and screaming matches when dad came home.
I would storm off, pout, and isolate. My bedroom was my tweenie-bopper cave that kept me safe from thinking about or owning my part.
I mean, why should I own any of it? I was just a kid! I was still a toddler when it came to the whole concept of honesty. I was 12!
Yet I was completely unaware that my behavior was harming others.
I was not only unavailable to my brother’s needs after school, but I was also disrespecting my dad’s house rules. My path was laced with arrogance and righteous behavior mostly because I saw everything as unfair and stupid.
Today, I do not fault myself for this phase. Yet this anger I experienced had to be reckoned with as an adult. I only saw bits of my part, or as they say in 12-steps, “my side of the street” as a kid and it all seemed so inferior to the control parents had.
Part of maturity was facing that I am responsible for my actions and I am not responsible for a fair or unfair world.
It’s no easy feet to grow up and deal with angry feelings. I think all age groups stumble over thoughts of injustice. We have to recognize that our angry feelings are present for a reason. They help us speak up and take right action for ourselves.
If we fail to claim right action, we get to stay babies, play small, isolate, and build caves for our resentments.
I came to understand that maturity is actually a choice. Kids need time to explore their feelings and observe how the world works. They often need systems of protection. It’s not that kids are blocked – they are just enduring the emotional growing pains.
Not so true, however, for the adult who clings to anger and righteous thinking by avoiding the choice to sweep up their side of the street.
Today I see my anger as a warning. I am aware that it surfaces to remind me to be an adult. It’s like a snarky angel who whispers in my ear and says, “It’s time to communicate your needs or desires.”

March 15, 2016 –
Okay get this – YOU go under hypnosis every day.
It’s that natural, transitional state between wakefulness and sleep.
It’s in this state that we are most susceptible to new ideas.
We got the big picture of hypnosis and both the powerful and realistic notions of what it can do for us in our interview with George Kappas (full bio below).
We learned how it works and how to use it as a tool to assuage fears, change habits, manage addictions, and achieve goals.
This is a fascinating topic, one we were more smitten with than expected.
One final teaser: In hypnosis, you target your willingness. “Willingness is a symptom of belief” – once we believe something, emotion and behavior follow.
Formal Bio:
George John Kappas, M.A., M.F.T. is the Director of Behavioral Science Centers and its college/clinic, the Hypnosis Motivation Institute (HMI). Serving the Los Angeles community since 1968, HMI is home to more than 75 Hypnotherapists in private practice and has provided over 250,000 hours of private/individual hypnotherapy services.
Under Mr. Kappas’ direction, HMI has earned the distinction of becoming the first college and clinic of hypnotherapy to achieve National Accreditation by an accrediting agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. Mr. Kappas’ responsibilities as director of HMI include lecturing, clinical supervision, publication, and research.
Mr. Kappas’ expertise in the field of human behavior and hypnotherapy have placed him in great demand to lecture on the role of the subconscious mind in understanding success in business motivation, financial prosperity and personal relationships.
Sharing his 29 years of HMI experience, Mr. Kappas’ presentations present a concise and entertaining view of how our subconscious minds play a predominant role in our success in personal relationships and financial prosperity with specifics on how to get this powerful resource working for us on a daily basis.
The two lectures for which Mr. Kappas is most in demand are his presentation on motivation, success and prosperity which is captured in his lecture/text “Success Is Not An Accident” as well as his presentation “Relationships: The Subconscious Connection,” supported by the text Relationship Strategies: The E & P Factor.
