“Honey, don’t forget to get some milk on the way home.”

Has anyone else made a similar request to their better half or someone else before and then they forgot anyway?

Some of you might be aware of the information that is to follow already but I figured a reminder will be good since installing new habits strongly benefit from repetition.

One of the prime detectives of the unconscious mind is that it doesn’t process negations very well. In simpler terms, our unconscious mind likes to skip the word “not” and only registers what follows. You guessed it, in this case this means “don’t forget” becomes simply “forget”.

This goes beyond the “being positive” that everyone is banging on about. It is consciously working together with your unconscious mind in order to achieve what you actually want.

So next time, you could possibly chose to say:

“Honey, please remember to get some milk on the way home.”

Let me know in the comments where and when you could improve saying what you want and how you actually want it!

Who are you?

What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when you read this question?

For some, it might be their name. Some might like it, or dislike it. Maybe you have changed it at some point in your life, maybe you identify it, perhaps you have even build a business or a brand around it. But is it you? Or a label bestowed to you upon birth that did not even need your consent? Either way, whatever meaning you give or not give it, it’s a label, it’s not you.

Some might say their profession. But is that who they are or what they do? Identifying with that rather speaks from the ego, not your true self.

Some might think of themselves as very compassionate or maybe angry beings. Whereas this might be true, or not, but they are emotions that are being experienced, again, it is not you.

Some of us strongly identify with their thoughts, the voice in their head they engage with like so many of us in all situations of life. However, is that voice you? Nothing you can observe is truly you. In meditation we learn that thoughts come, and we can acknowledge that there is a thought and that we can just let it go as quickly as it emerged, without engagement.

Now, none of this is bad or good, it is just a nudge to truly and deeply ponder the question of “who are you?”. In his book “The Untetheted Soul”, Michael A. Singer discusses this voice and freeing oneself from it, becoming the observer, in a very easy to connect with way.

A mother, a pilot, happy, a democrat, cautious, either way, you are not your ego, emotions or thoughts, no matter how strongly you chose to identify with them.

So, I invite you to ask yourself with curiosity, who are you?

What is one thing you can start doing today that will change your life towards how you want it?

There is no universal to-do list that everyone needs to tick off in order to reach a certain promised state. It is about what you want, I can’t tell you what that is, no one outside of you can tell you what that is.

Do you maybe want to live a healthier lifestyle? Perhaps you could get up just 15min earlier and go for a walk, or make a habit of checking the ingredients of the foods you buy each week? Or cook one more meal a week from scratch than you have done so far?

Do you maybe want to get physically fitter? Perhaps do 10 push ups a day. Doesn’t sound like much but in a years time that’s 3650 push ups more than you would have done otherwise. And who knows, you might challenge yourself and increase the amount?

Do you maybe want to get mentally fitter? Perhaps you could study a new language or an instrument for 10 min a day. Again, doesn’t seem like much but it adds up to over 60 hours in a year.

It can be as simple as making the effort to being fully present each night while brushing your teeth in order to gain mentally clarity and practicing presence, decluttering your home by getting rid of one thing each day or picking up a book and reading 2 pages each night.

The key is to be consistent, the unconscious mind benefits from repetition to install a new habit. Who knows, your habit might just expand and on some days you might just have to be kind and compassionate with yourself. Adjust it as you go, you’re in charge, you’re making the rules and remember, there is no failure, only feedback.

Let me know in the comments what habit it is that you are starting today to get you what you want.

Welcome to my business page🌟

I'm excited to connect with new followers and re-engage with familiar faces after a year's hiatus.

My purpose in posting today is to share my insights more widely because I’ve been keeping too much to myself for too long that might just be of help to one or all of you.

I've also got something on the horizon that I'll be sharing soon.

As a Master NLP practitioner, coach, hypnotherapist, and Time Line Therapy®️ practitioner, my coaching services are designed to support you in overcoming any hurdles, particularly in the area of weight loss. While my schedule is tight before an upcoming trip, I'm open to connecting with those who are seeking personalized support.

So, today I’m not choosing to not post here again and instead, change my thinking and making excuses to taking action by taking a first little but important step on the journey to get you and I what we want.

What is it that you are choosing that you want to change?

Special thanks go to Sharni-marie Bates for the inspiration of this quote 🌟

🌟Gratitude🌟

What are you grateful for today?
Have you got a daily gratitude practice?

Having a conscious daily gratitude practice has several positive effects on mental and physical health as well as on relationships.

Who or what can you actively thank today?

It could be anything or anyone.

Today, I thank my children for continuously giving me opportunities to grow as a parent and person, building my patience, compassion and the ability to find alternatives.

I am also thankful for my friends, their advice, support and understanding for when life gets a bit busy.

Last but not least, I am grateful for the weather, for many reasons, actually. Most importantly it taught me the significance of the saying “be careful what you wish for”. Being born and raised in a lush green and wet place, we so often wished the, what we called, miserable rain away. Little did I know that I was to live in a place where I was going to wish for the exact opposite! It has also taught me to keep a positive mindset even if circumstances are way less than desirable and are out of my control.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Incorporating a new habit into your routine often works best at the very beginning of your day or at the very end. It can be specific, it can be broad. Write it down, or say it out loud, right now, right here and feel it.

Let me know in the comments what you’re grateful for and/or if you would like more inspiration about the topic and how to realise it.

Thank you for reading and enjoy your weekend.

Much love,
Maren

Where do you choose to direct your attention to?
What emotions are the things you pay attention to in your mind evoking?
Are they creating or depleting you of energy?
There is always a choice, no matter how sh*tty it gets.

What does your internal dialogue look like?
What do you tell yourself?
Ever listen in on that voice that unconsciously runs your life?

This isn't just about being positive, this is what you deep down believe about yourself and the BS stories you tell yourself to stay in your comfort zone. Be assured, we all do it to some degree or another.

I used to tell myself "I can't run, I won't ever run long distances". Now, I've got two legs and two feet like all other healthy human beings, what was really stopping me? A BS story. Indeed I found out I can run! And I can consistently stick to it, if I want to. Now, I am currently not but would like to again, so, I've got to ask myself, what is currently stopping me when I know it will get me the results I'm after? Or could I do something different instead?

There are always options, you just got to chose to see them, be honest with yourself and take action.

What is it that you are currently telling yourself that stops you from achieving your goals and how can you reframe it to cause lasting change?

Welcome everyone 🌟

Thank you for following my page and being patient with me welcoming you!

It has been long in the making, it has been a goal for over two years! Upon the completion of my Masters Practitioner Training last October I finally got my own ABN, started some 1:1 coaching. I just kept pushing this whole business page creation off, since I wanted my official business email first. And I’ve finally done that, too! No more BS stories now for me and here it is! What is it that you can take action towards still today in order to progress towards what you want to achieve?

I will, as time permits, share all my useful knowledge from my trainings here with you and I’m so grateful you are all here for the journey.

One thing I would like to start off right away, is a little side group, mainly around weight loss, working on our eating and drinking habits, exercise, all in a healthy way and breaking all beliefs that limit you on reaching your goals. This idea has sprouted last week after we had a lovely and open discussion around the topic in the Our Meditation Cirlce session. I’m not 100% set on what this will look like, it will just evolve as we go on.
There will be a group, which everyone is welcome to join and which will be free of any charge. There we can share our progress, what has worked, what hasn’t, recipes, set meeting times etc.. We will have meetings, in a group setting but at different times than the Our Meditation Circle session, please note, it will be seperate from that.
There, we will do hypnosis, pendulum work, NLP techniques such as Like-to-Dislike and whatever else I have in my toolbox to support everyone on their journey. There will be a fee for this part of the service, I’m not sure yet how much or what this will look like exactly. I’m open to suggestions. There is of course also the option of 1:1 coaching for those who feel they need it.
Please let me know if you are interested in this, we will touch on this tomorrow in the group, any feedback is highly appreciated.

In general, I’m available for 1:1 coaching, due to having still one child at kindy, my time is rather scarce, but please reach out and we will see what we can make work together! I know you’re wondering what I can help you with, basically with anything that you’re stuck with, if you feel limited in anyway or just feel like you’re not living your best life, just get in touch. A consultation over the phone, a cuppa or stroll is always free 🌟.

Last but not least, a huge shout out to Kobie Notting, who I can’t tag in here, for designing my logo! It has been a pleasure working with her, creative, easy to work with, and very affordable for a small business. Thank you!

Much love,
Maren
