Mindset Mastery

To master the game of life, you need a growth mindset.

In the past 12 years of client work, I (Val) discovered that most of us wear 'blinders' in how we approach our health and life in general.

Instead of learning and implementing best practices, we continue the same habits acquired from family, peers, and 'authority figures'. Therefore, we continue to get about the same results.

Albert Einstein said, The current problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking with which they were created.

The bottom line of your success hinges on winning your inner game, what goes on between your two ears. You have to consistently following through with your chosen action steps once you are clear on what you want. The problem is - this is where we often meet with resistance. Because the brain dislikes change, it evokes thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations that cause procrastination, excuses, 'forgetting', etc. It feels like we are downright sabotaging ourselves.

Val is skilled using a variety of processes that can help you move through fear and resistance and gain new perspectives. These processes incorporate easily into your coaching sessions when needed.

Here's a real life example. One of my clients sought my help after realizing that she 'lost herself'. She felt like her life was on hold for years as she mourned the loss of her daughter and fretted over the future of her grandchildren. As she awakened to the reality that she was stuck, and her life was slipping by, she decided, "Now it's time for me, it's all about me." She felt conflicted about this. During a visualization process, she realized that when she took care of herself and embraced life fully on her own terms, she brimmed over with plenty of herself to give to others as well.

Strategies to Transform Your Results

If you are tired of struggling, making small gains, and wasted efforts, it's time to change your game. A change of strategy can help you achieve results with greater ease and speed. Strategy is your overall plan for achieving your goal, or winning your game.

Val's mentoring and coaching focuses on practical, doable strategies that help you create the results you are looking for.

Here is an example from my own life. I used to feel a lot of resentment about situations in my past. I 'stewed' and held a grudge. Of course, this spilled over into all my relationships and life patterns. This unhealthy pattern, or 'strategy' of reliving the past created an environment of negativity within and around me. Not what I wanted.

That began to change as I took action using an energy healing strategy for releasing troublesome feelings. Ultimately, my life and relationships transformed. Yes, there were bumps and challenges along the way, but I learned valuable skills, strategies, and habits that ultimately helped me heal those memories and 'win my game'.

Support System

Most of us benefit greatly when supported in our quest for a healthy, happy life. Even though support can make the difference between success and failure, it is often a key we attempt to do without. That is often a mistake.

As your mentor and coach, Val will provide you the support you need as you play for your dreams.

This support comes in many forms. Here are a few examples:

Presence and Dedication: You can count on Val to be there for you - emotionally, intellectually and spiritually. You will feel this. You can count on Val to listen carefully, focus on you, care about you, be honest with you, and yes, to challenge you. Between sessions she thinks of you and is likely to gain fresh insights and ideas for you. She welcomes your between session calls or emails when you find yourself struggling or have something to celebrate. She is 'there'.

Partnership: A coaching relationship is a partnership. As such, Val is a sounding board for your thoughts and ideas. She is there to collaborate with you as you plan, strategize, and problem-solve. She is there to champion you as you uncover jewels within yourself, learn from mistakes and failures (which very well may happen), when you course-correct, and win. She is there to help you stay on track and encourage you to play better and bigger than you could alone.

Judgment-free zone: Within a safe, judgment-free zone, you are free to relax your fears and be honest with yourself and Val as your coach. This honesty is crucial to your success.

Provocative Questions: In order to transform your life, you must look deeply inside yourself and develop keen self-awareness about who you are and want you truly want. Val asks powerful questions that help you uncover your true values, core beliefs, and thought patterns (positive and negative). You will gain a better grasp of your strengths, weaknesses and the challenges you might face along the way.

Energy Flow Techniques - Sometimes, despite your best intentions, you find yourself stalled on your path. At those times, Val will help you shift that energy using a variety of techniques so you can move forward with greater ease.

Designing Environments - Did you know that your environment always wins? That's because your inner and outer environments reflect who you were and who you are now. Val will help you design inner and outer environments that promote who you want to become. This accelerates your progress and makes becoming the next best version of yourself easier.

Resources: As an educator as well as a coach, Val is a rich source of information about mind, body, spirit wellness. She is happy to share her knowledge and related experiences with her clients. She will help you find answers when she doesn't know, and refer you to other resources and experts should the need arise.

Integration

When you have a healthy body, a clear mind, and a felt connection to your soul or spirit, you are empowered move toward fulfilling your life purpose and manifesting your heart's desires.

Integration of mind body spirit is a well-known concept in the holistic wellness movement. It's the foundation of our approach to living and enjoying a healthy life. Although there are other levels of integration, this one is important in how you approach the goals in your wellness and life game.

This integration consists of three attributes:

Knowledge - This knowledge goes beyond education. It's about going deeper and understanding the workings of your mind and body to how to best make them work for you. Quite simply, there are habits that either enhance or negate wellness. In general, these habits apply to most people, but as an individual some are more specific to you. Your inner and outer life benefit when you are clear about what personally enhances your well-being and how to create the life you want.

Clarity - It is much easier to make decisions and follow through when you have clarity. Without clear focus, you either fake it or stay frozen and stuck. Feeling certain and clear about what you want creates a sense of ease and optimism. Coaching helps you to find clarity in your heart and in your decisions.

Spiritual Alignment - When you are true to your Self, making decisions that are right for you is easier. You feel energized and confident in who you are and what's important to you, even when you are facing challenges. You feel more confident taking action steps, because you know that they are right for you.

When you create with an integrated mind, body and spirit working together as one, you experience flow. Making and following through with decisions is easier and more enjoyable. You deepen your sense of inner awareness and learn to tap into your connection with your heart, or spirit.

When these attributes are out of balance, you may feel stuck, overwhelmed, and confused. But in this space of integrated flow you find and gain the wisdom, strength, love, and peace that is already within you.

Now that you are familiar with our success strategies and how Val works, read to see if this is for you and what kind of results to expect.
