OVERCOME DEPRESSION AND WELCOME JOY BACK INTO YOUR LIFE!

Depression can really take the joy out of life... but it can be overcome - for good! Let me show you how.

Depression is more than a Blue Day, sadness, or even a broken heart, although it happens because of such things and feels a lot like the blues. If you've ever had a real depression, you know what I mean.

Depression is usually seen as something that requires medication to relieve and sometimes it's simply taken for granted that you must learn to live with it … forever, more or less. But if you know depression, you know...

HOW TO CHOOSE A COACH

by Stanlee Panelle

Just because someone is licensed or certified doesn't mean they are the right Counselor for you. Here's how to choose the right match for you.
There are tons of helpers out there for almost every issue a person can come up with. When looking for a Coach, here are some things to keep in mind.

1. First and foremost is a CONNECTION. When you are interviewing your prospective Coach, be yourself. Don't hold back. Use the language you use. State your opinions. Make yourself known. Then listen for how this person responds. Are they in tune with you? Are they sensitive to your style? Do they really hear you or are they intent on their own agenda? Do you feel understood and accepted? Do you like them?

2. Also first and foremost – equally – is do they have what you want? This...
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIFE COACHING & THERAPY: IS THERE ONE? And What is it?

Many people ask: "what exactly is the difference between therapy and coaching?" Well, I feel rather well qualified to answer that question although, there are many styles of both therapy and coaching. From my perspective as both a therapist and a coach I say they are both forms of counseling. Counseling is an age old custom of seeking perspective, guidance, help, advice, wisdom and support from someone else that has more of the thing you want, whether that is experience in something, education and training on certain subjects, or is simply known as a wise and trustworthy person you can count on to help you see your way through something. Back a couple of decades ago, there was a movement in the mental health field that produced...

"HELP!! I'M LIVING A LIFE DESIGNED BY A 25 YEAR OLD AND IT DOESN'T FIT ME ANYMORE!"

Does that feel familiar? When did it happen that everything you thought you wanted when you were in your blooming 20s has either come to pass – and passed on by - or has lost it's allure, or you've outgrown it?

It happens to all of us at some level. Some are more conscious of the discomfort than others and are willing to look at it squarely and address it. Others go on trying to recapture the lost glitter forever (yikes! Grandmas in hot-pants, etc.) And some just give in...

RELATIONSHIP BUILDING 101:
THE 90 DAY RULE

So you think you're in love? Falling in love? Definitely in Like? Great! Scary though, right? No one wants to get hurt, rejected or feel like a fool so, how do you move forward openly and keep your heart from being broken?

There are a few things you should know first of all, that create that wonderful "crush" feeling that provokes such hope for a happily ever after. Despite being very sophisticated and civilized, we humans are animals after all and that being said, there are a few things about animal instinct and the innate urge to mate that we seem to overlook when we meet someone special and start down that path of falling in love … or hoping to.

The reason we overlook it is even built in and natural! It takes a bit of personal work to maintain awareness when our hormones are surging around like crazy because nature made us a little crazy when it comes to love – or more precisely the mating game. When we meet someone that strikes our fancy...

RELATIONSHIPS LIVE ON THE TIP OF YOUR TONGUE!

How, what and when we say what we say to those we love makes an impression that lasts. Words cannot be taken back. Nor can we read the minds of our lovers.

How many times have you heard: "Oh … I didn't really mean it." Or, "I'm sorry I said that. I take it back." Or, "I was just angry and wanted to get back at you, that isn't how I really feel." How many times have you said one of those? Doesn't work, does it? Once those words leave your mouth...
