I wrote this post elsewhere but thought it would be valuable sharing in this group and definitely things in here for everyone. Health coaches might find this post particularly valuable (as it is written from a health and well-being perspective . . .

______________

There's something that pretty everyone on the planet desperately wants perhaps more than anything else . . .something that consistently produces miracles in people's lives - and even consistent miracles around their health and well-being.

I've seen people recover from all sorts of serious health conditions from just this one thing - without even having to change their diet or take drugs or natural supplements. . .

At the same time, it's a very curious thing that only a very very very small percentage of people are willing to pay for it directly and / or ascribe some sort of monetary value to it or exchange energy for it. . . not good or bad . . .more just something I've observed.

Instead, they'll ascribe monetary value to drugs, medicinal herbs, fancy specialized treatments, workshops, get rich quick schemes . . .perhaps for health consulting / coaching (although less so). . . the sorts of things that give them "relief" or are a "distraction" from something . . .but not usually ascribing value to things that will profoundly alter the course of their life much beyond just getting some temporary relief or suppressing / managing a condition.

The thing I'm referring to that pretty much EVERYONE is craving for (whether they're consciously aware of it or not) is to have someone really listen, understand them, not judge, love them unconditionally and really get and feel where they're at . . .someone where it's 100% safe to open up pour your heart out or say the things you've been terrified to talk about that you might have been carrying around inside you for weeks, months, years, decades or a lifetime that torments your thoughts, keeps you up at night, messes with your cortisol levels, affects your appetite, kidney filtration, food cravings, and even bowel function. . . and the very process of just having these things be heard, without anyone trying to fix, change or judge you but rather "affirm" that you're loved unconditionally despite all this stuff and perhaps having the "right" life experience - has these toxic thought patterns just disappear and go away - along with corresponding hormonal fight or flight responses of the body. . . and yet it's really really really rare for someone to have something and someone like that in life. . .even when they see counsellors, psychologists, healers, go to personal and spiritual development workshops, read spiritual and personal development literature, visit shamans, etc.

Perhaps because of the miracles I see it produce for people having someone and something like that in life - I shifted more to a life-coaching model in the past few years - which really is all about listening, unconditionally loving and reminding someone that they're having the right life experience - regardless of who they are, whatever they've done or not done in life, and it's really ok to pursue their goals and dreams (even if it's scary).

It's a really tough thing to listen to someone fully without getting triggered at all or not trying to fix, change or find oneself judging and really "feel" and "get" where someone is at - which is probably why so so few people can listen really well (and a skill I think takes many years to develop).

I've often had clients come around who feel better after the sessions . . .and I have to wonder - is it because they got heard and got to talk - or is it the medicinal herbs and change in diet. Of course, they pretty much always will think it's the herbs and (less so), the diet which are making the difference - but I really have to question if it mainly is because they got to communicate something and let go of something that had been driving them crazy forever.

One way to grasp this is which might be easier - is to think back to a time when you were talking with someone and they just listened while you got off something off your chest what you'd been trying to say forever and that you're wrong or crazy. . .you probably felt better, had your energy go up, a sense of freedom and joy. . .and it really had nothing to do with diet or taking a supplement - but rather everything to do with getting some weight off your chest. . . and I'm not talking about going to a psychologist or shrink or counsellor (who, almost always aren't really doing what I mentioned above . . .and that's not to say there aren't some really great counsellors and psychologists out there who do do this - but generally this isn't the case when someone sees one of these sorts of specialists (with someone really listening to you such that you felt totally "heard" and known).

Anyhow . . .just some food for thought here and an interesting phenomena. . .always curious to see how this lands sort of thing "lands" with people reading this post. I find this sort of thing can't really be marketed . . .more like if someone is ready to hear it, they can because energetically they're tuned into this frequency 📷
