OVERCOMING OVERWHELM PARALIMINAL

Are you suffering from the mental anguish of overwhelm? Or do you know someone who is?

This is something that I deal with on an ongoing basis as I take on more challenges.

So I surround myself with coaches: 2 business coaches, an angel healer, a psychotherapist, a psychologist, harmony & integration facilitator and a personal trainer; to keep me balanced and get me back into the flow of life.

Dr. Ursula Wild referred me to her intern Shawn Pritchard in 2012, a former Buddhist monk. He taught me the simply amazing 3-second mindfulness meditation technique: RISING & FALLING.

Whenever you feel overwhelmed or anxious:

(1) Inhale and say to yourself "Rising"

(2) Exhale and say to yourself "Falling:

Your chest is rising as you breathe in, and your chest is falling as you breathe out.

That's it. You're done. By doing this, it brings you into the present moment.

For those of you who would like a more concrete solution, there is a CD that you can listen to every day for a week that will help. It is the Overcoming Overwhelm Paraliminal by Paul Scheele of The Learning Strategies Corporation.

I met Paul in 2005 during their Train The Trainer III program on accelerated learning techniques. I consider him an enlightened master and a brilliant human being.
