Mother's Gift

By Carol Harris-Fike, NCOC, PCC and author of "5 Life Energies: The Choice You Have in How Energy Shapes Your Life" ©2009. May 8th is the U.S. celebration of mothers everywhere. May 7th will be my mother's Memorial Service in celebration of her 90 years of life on this earth. In preparation for my part in this celebration, I thought of the gifts she gave me. There is one I desire to share with all of you. (If you are interested in more about Mother, I'd be glad to share all my thoughts. Email me carol@yourlifefromhere.com) Julia A Wade Harris, 1920-2011

How to Shift Your Energy

This month I promised to write more about how to shift your energy to better serve yourself and those around you. One of my clients wrote the following letter that made me blush... and shared her story of how this works for her. I cannot think of a better way to share with you how shifting energy in and around your body can serve. Hi Carol, I loved your Thoughts this month ;-) I wanted to share a story with you.

My Power is Within My Vulnerability

Previously I wrote about "Forgetting my Purpose". July is about remembering where to find My Power. Acting from a place of power allows me to speak from my authentic self and accomplish what serves me as well as those around me. It takes courage to do this, but what I discovered last week is that only when I also allow myself to be vulnerable will I truly... even easily... realize my power.r

It all depends on what emotions are available to you

Last month we discussed the various ways that energy is flowing within you and how the energy of one person affects the energy of another. In this issue we will discuss how the flow of energy within us allows for certain emotions to be felt... or not. The flow of energy supports us living within a certain mood and not others. Our emotions and moods predispose us to certain actions and so each emotion or mood allows us to take certain actions and not others.r

Allow a Little Magic in Your Day

A client recently sent me an email wishing me "a little magic in my day". Just accepting that thought into my heart allowed me to find some magic in that day. Unknown to my client he had sent his email on the first anniversary of my mother's passing. As I began my day, I had wondered if it would be a difficult day with lots of sad thoughts coming my way. The thought in this email allowed me to see things differently and what came... all-be-it with some sadness... were thoughts around the "magic" of her passing.

What Does Your Presence Reveal?

Is this the color "the beach you are" reveals? Did you expect your beach to show up as white, tan, or black, and it showed up orange to others? What happened? Our "beach" shows up as who we are as a total being. Our presence is the whole of us... not just what we say. It is what we feel in our hearts at that moment. It includes what thoughts are on our minds... whether from yesterday or in the present or maybe in the future. And it includes how we are holding our bodies... slumped over or standing tall... and so much more!

What's Important for Me

In this season of hustle and bustle... Okay, it's December and the holidays are here. Rich and I just got back from a lovely Thanksgiving in Hawaii, yea! We came home to more sad news of deaths of family and friends and while dealing with all of that we also had "work" to catch up on and then all the winter holiday tasks to plan and do.

I Forgot my Purpose!!??

Sometimes the answer we desire is in what we are forgetting. I was at a conference recently where we found our coach in nature. You know, you sit in front of whatever and you ask a question and wait to see what comes. The first time I talked with my coach, she very wisely guided me with an answer to my question, so I went back the next day with a question for which I desperately wanted an answer. I asked, I waited, I asked again. My coach appeared to be very quiet this day, so I decided to go on a long walk.

Make a 2012 Declaration that Sticks

In December I promised to share my thoughts and practices on making declarations. Declarations can support a shift in our habits whether it is a habit in how we think, feel, or move. Declarations versus resolutions can be embodied... become a part of who we are versus something we just think we should do or be. The first step is to begin with how you desire to be. "For the sake of what" are you intending to be differently?

Making Meaning out of Passing Loved Ones

Two more people who were close to me or someone in my family have passed in the last month. This brings the number to five for 2011 and I'm pondering the meaning of it all for me. Is it my age and what I should prepare myself to experience more and more? Is this my year to learn some deep meaning around death? Is this just "life happening"? How can my coaching distinctions serve me and those around me? Importance of Celebration of Life

Moods & My Actions

We live within moods and sometimes we don't even recognize their names... no really. Think about a domain of your life; i.e. work relationships, personal relationships, etc. Then put a name on the mood that mainly runs how you behave there. Taking a look at my work life recently, I discover that I have recently been living within a mood of resignation around getting contract work. My declaration is: "I have no control over the numbers of clients and no input on when/where... it just comes to me or not."

Master Assessments

"I Don't Want to Play this Game Anymore!" I admit it: I got so mad at my sister when working a jigsaw puzzle the other night that I said, "I don't want to play this game anymore... I'm going to bed!" It was silly, childish, and, of course I was "right" as she was hogging the picture on the box and not sharing the puzzle pieces I had spent so much time sorting by color. Sheeesh!

The Wisdom of You

You know & feel it… you have a wisdom that is in the special gifts that only you can give to others. These gifts are what I call “The Wisdom of You”. I believe that you and I may offer almost the same words or actions to others, but only your way will speak to some people. Some people can only understand what you offer by the way you offer it… by the way they can connect with you and maybe not me. If you don’t share your wisdom, those same people may never “get the message”. I was an elementary school principal for ten years of my 30-year public education career.

By Carol Harris-Fike, NCOC, PCC and author of "5 Life Energies: The Choice You Have in How Energy Shapes Your Life" ©2009. What do you do when you get a diagnosis of food insensitivities and your diet has to be changed in a big way? The most important and difficult change was giving up wheat and many other grains.
