Are you parenting without wings?

Thursday, March 31st, 2011

Are you parenting without wings?

“Before I got married I had six theories about bringing up children; now I have six children, and no theories.”  John Wilmot

My six year old daughter asked me to put together a toy airplane the other day that had broken. We hunted around and found the instructions.  I have to say they were the most difficult set of instructions I have ever encountered before.  It took me ages! I do NLP Coaching for a living and help put people and families back together after they fall apart.  How could a toy airplane be so difficult?

Finally I was able to complete the task except for attaching the wings.  This got me to thinking.  Parenting has to be the most complex job in the world with the least amount of instruction manuals.  How many parents feel like they are parenting without their wings?

As an NLP Life Coach and Trainer, I see many parents who are worried about their kids, particularly their behaviour, and whether they as parents are doing the best job they can.  Dr Jonathan Bispham and I coach kids to help them get better results at school and at home.  What we find is that so many kids have been labeled as ADHD or been identified as having Auditory Processing Disorder, Sensory Processing Disorder and many more labels.  Unfortunately when this happens, people around the kids tend to treat them differently and they sometimes feel isolated.  The parents blame themselves.

There are many different styles of parenting and a huge amount of parenting books.  So how do you know which system or style is the right one?  Surely they can’t all be right?

In our practice when we do NLP Coaching, there is no one technique or system that will suit every client.  This is the same for parenting children as there is no one system for every child at every stage.  We believe that kids not only grow physically, they also evolve ‘how they think’.   As your child’s thinking system changes, you need to change how you parent.

Our Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) Practitioner training course teaches you the skills to help your kids become more confident, more motivated and more in control of their behaviour.  We teach you how to solve problems within the family environment.

Imagine learning how you and your kids can work together to let go of negative emotions, unwanted behaviour, feelings of isolation, kids anxiety and depression.  How much more in control would you and your kids feel after learning simple techniques that enable your family environment to run smoothly once again?

Learning NLP Coaching techniques will give you the skills you need to parent with confidence knowing you are definitely doing the best job you can.

Our next course on the Gold Coast, Queensland is scheduled 20 – 26 June 2011.

The Perfect You….

Tuesday, March 8th, 2011

How nice are you to other people?

Hopefully you answered ‘pretty nice’

Now answer this question: ‘How nice are you to yourself?’

Most people if they answer that question truthfully will say that they think negative thoughts about themselves and their future throughout each day such as:

  • I’m not good enough
  • Life is hopeless
  • What’s the point?
  • I’m fat
  • I’m broke
  • I’m a failure

When you say those things to yourself, believe it or not, it affects your level of success.

Consider this:  Do you think Richard Branson, Barack Obama, Oprah, Napoleon Hill or Thomas Edison constantly said or say negative things about themselves?  No of course not.  Then why do you do it and still expect to be successful?

Try this out for a couple of weeks and see what difference it makes to your life:

Sit quietly for a few minutes each day and imagine your perfect (but realistic) future.  Be as specific as you like and see your future working out step by step with no room for any kind of doubt or insecurity.

What most people don’t realise is what you think about actually creates your reality and you attract that which you think about.  So it makes sense if you are thinking negatively about yourself and your future then you will attract more of that.

This is just one of the many NLP training techniques that help you to be the most successful you can be.

You deserve the best – so start changing your mind!

Are you serious about weight loss?

Tuesday, March 1st, 2011

Want to lose weight this year? Here is a task I give to my clients…

  1. Do a 14 day food journal. The purpose of this is to record everything you put in your mouth (including gum & drinks) and what emotion you were feeling at the time.
  2. Each day make a note of what you ate or drank, the time and what you were thinking/feeling and doing at the time.
  3. Do it each day – each time you put something in your mouth – don’t wait until the end of the day as this is too late.
  4. After 14 days you will see a link between your eating patterns and your negative feelings/emotions.
  5. Now you have a starting point to be able to really address what is behind the weight issue.

Try it for 14 days – don’t cheat as this is unfair to you.

A good NLP and Time Line Therapy™ Practitioner can help you let go of the negative emotions and also teach you a technique that turns a type of food that you really love (but isn’t good for you) into something you really hate – so you won’t eat it anymore such as chocolate, potato chips etc.

Then focus on all the healthy foods you can eat.  Combine with a healthy exercise program (making sure you get clearance from your doctor) and you are on your way to a healthy weight and lifestyle.

Adelaide Govt says ‘YES’ to NLP & Hypnosis Training!

Tuesday, March 1st, 2011

No longer do you have to travel to Sydney or Melbourne to learn the greatest set of skills for human change, excellence and empowerment.

For years Adelaide residents weren’t able to get accreditation in Hypnosis, which is included in all good Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) training courses.  State government legislation prevented Adelaide people, who wanted to improve their skills and really help others, from being given access to Hypnosis accreditation as part of NLP training.

Now for the great news!NLP Graduates

The legislation has been changed and Adelaide residents can train to be an NLP Practitioner and a Hypnotherapist all in the one 7-day NLP training.

So what is all the fuss about and why are we so excited?

For a start there is so much heartbreak and misery all around us.  People are suffering from the economic situation, natural disasters such as floods and cyclones and everyday issues that cause hurt and pain.

People who are trained in Hypnosis, Time Line Therapy® and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) are now in high demand.

Why?

NLP training courses, that include Hypnosis and Time Line Therapy® as part of the curriculum, teach you how to control your thoughts so you produce excellent behaviour, which in turn enables you to be successful in any area of life.

To become master of your own world you need to be able to let go of anger, sadness, fear and guilt from your life and program your mind to achieve excellence.  Attending an NLP training course not only teaches you how to do this for yourself but also how to help others to achieve more in their lives.

The more negative thoughts you have (and try not to have) the more damage you may be doing to your life, both internally and externally.  It can affect your health and your ability to move forward.

It is vital to find an Adelaide NLP course that is internationally recognised so you know you are getting value for money.  If they offer a money back guarantee then you can’t really go wrong as they are willing to put their money behind their promise to ensure you receive the most excellent training possible.

So why not learn how to let go of negative thoughts, emotions, beliefs and doubts that prevent you from having your life the way you want it. Learning NLP Practitioner skills is a simple and effective way to overcome obstacles so you can have your life the way you want it.

You know those people who seem to be so lucky in life that everything they touch turns to gold?  NLP is the study of success and excellence in human behaviour.  We show you how to find excellence, model it and install it so you can be just as successful too.

In 7 days we show you how to get rid of all those issues holding you back.  Plus you leave with 4 certifications and you can start earning money on day 8!  Check us out on YouTube

In the words of Wayne Dyer, “Go for it now. The future is promised to no-one”

Melbourne NLP Super Mums: Balance It All Easily

Wednesday, February 23rd, 2011

Melbourne businesses are suffering and there is more demand than ever for Melbourne Mums to return to the workforce sooner and balance kids, work, bills and money.

Do you really want to go back into the job you left before you had your child?  I know I didn’t.  That part of my life was over and I wanted to re-train in something that enabled me to be a great Mum, help my kids, help other people and get paid for it.

This dream propelled me towards training in Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and I haven’t looked back since!

As a Mum, my skills come in handy when I’m teaching my youngest how to spell and how to remember information easily.  I can help my teenagers with their anxiety and teach them techniques so they are successful at everything they do.  I do hypnosis with my kids so they are confident and empowered young people.  I’m a much better parent. To have the skills that an NLP training course provides is invaluable.

There is so much heartbreak and misery all around us.  People are suffering from the economic situation, natural disasters such as floods, fires and cyclones and everyday issues that cause hurt and pain.

People who are trained in Hypnosis, Time Line Therapy® and NLP are now in demand.  Think about the recent floods in Melbourne and how many Melbourne residents who need someone who is trained to help them through the worst start to their year.  That person could be you.

How?

Melbourne NLP training courses, that include Hypnosis and Time Line Therapy® as part of the curriculum, teach you how to control your thoughts so you produce excellent behaviour, which in turn enables you to be successful in any area of life.

To become master of your own world you need to be able to let go of anger, sadness, fear and guilt from your life and program your mind to achieve excellence.  Attending an NLP training course not only teaches you how to do this for yourself but also how to help others to achieve more in their lives.

The best Melbourne NLP courses include Time Line Therapy® and Hypnosis and teach you how to be excellent in anything you choose.  You learn how to help others and get paid doing something you love.  You can easily work from home making work, life balance so much easier.

It is vital to find an NLP course in Melbourne that is internationally recognised so you know you are getting value for money.  If they offer a money back guarantee then you can’t really go wrong as they are willing to put their money behind their promise to ensure you receive the most excellent training possible.

So why not learn how to let go of negative thoughts, emotions, beliefs and doubts that prevent you from having your life the way you want it.

Life Changing Solutions teach you NLP skills in their Melbourne courses so you can have your life the way you want it.  In our Melbourne NLP Practitioner course you won’t find yourself in a room full of 100 students, as we like to give you individual attention so our numbers are strictly limited. Dr Jonathan Bispham and I will be your trainers, the Principals of Life Changing Solutions, so you know you are getting the best. We show you how to prevent your own thoughts ruining your life and it only takes 7 days.  Plus you leave with 4 certifications and you can start earning money on day 8!

How To Be Happy Everyday

Wednesday, February 9th, 2011

I know you are thinking – how is that possible?

I promise you it is and here is how to do it using a quick process called NLP Anchoring….

  1. Take a moment and sit somewhere quietly
  2. Think of a time when you were the most happiest – a specific time
  3. Now imagine experiencing that time as if it were right now
  4. Remember everything you saw, felt and heard
  5. Now when you really feel those feelings, squeeze your left fist
  6. Then open your eyes
  7. Repeat steps 2 – 6 about 4 or 5 times
  8. To test – fire your anchor – squeeze your left fist and you should feel those happy feelings

You could also think of a ‘special word’ that reminds you of that event instead of squeezing your fist.  Once you have repeated steps 2-6, when you  think of the ‘special word’ you will feel those positive feelings.

NLP Anchoring is basically linking a positive state to a picture, word or a physical place on the body.  The state and the picture/word or physical place gets linked in your brain so you feel the same feelings when you fire the anchor as in step 8.  You can use any states such as motivation, confidence, energetic to name a few.  This is also great for kids!

This isn’t magic or anything new.  Marketing teams worldwide use anchors to get you into a positive state where you want the product no matter what.  Just notice what happens when a child sees the ‘Golden Arches’ of McDonalds.  Instantly they are hungry and that is a very clever visual anchor….

Give it a go – it works and it only takes a couple of minutes.

Keep track of your kids: Kidtracker Discount

Sunday, February 6th, 2011

I watched Wall Street 2 last night and my ears pricked up when I heard Michael Douglas say, “parents are the bones on which children sharpen their teeth”.  That rings so true when you think about it.  We are the testing ground for their development, their knowledge, their trials and tribulations.  We are the ones they can really be themselves around (sometimes too much like themselves!)

The question bears asking, as parents how do we truly keep our kids safe?  Our teenagers are now socialising more and more and have earned some independence so they can go to movies, shopping centres and some parties on their own.  So how do we know where they really are?

Kidtracker is an amazing gps phone tracking product that enables you to know where your kids are within a few metres of their location and it costs less than we would spend on coffees per week.  How good will it feel to know you have total peace of mind when your kids go out? All they need is their mobile phone and kidtracker does the rest.  It is easy to install and simple to use.

We have secured a special discount for our readers and clients.  Your special discount code is VIP05 and you can access this at:  http://www.lifechangingsolutions.com.au/kid-tracker.html

Until next time ……

Who’s Keeping You On Your Game?

Wednesday, February 2nd, 2011

How do elite athletes and successful people stay on top of their game?  That’s right – they have a coach to help them be the best they can be.  So who is helping you stay on top of your game?

My clients get great results by putting into practice the NLP Coaching techniques I teach them. This got me to thinking about how sharing some of these tools could help you in your life.  So I thought I might share with you different ideas, hints and tips each week that will help you improve the areas of your life and business that need some work!

The first question is this:  Is this your year to shine?

Have you ever gone into a grocery store to pick up ‘a couple of things’ without a list?  I know I have many times and every time I walk out with items I didn’t really need and I end up spending more money than I needed to!

How many of us wander through life without a list of what we really want and then get distracted and end up somewhere at the end of the year where we didn’t really want to be?  I know a lot of my clients who become exasperated with their lack of direction.

So do you want to know how to create your ‘life list’?

What do you really want to achieve this year?  To start your ‘life list’ you need to divide your life into the areas you want to improve such as: health, career, money, sex and relationships.  Then start with one area and write down exactly what it is you want.

This may sound basic and you might be surprised how many people miss out this step.  You know you want your life, business or relationships to be better.  How much better?  What specifically do you want?  Not many of us would go on a holiday without working out where they want to get to so why is it alright to just meander through life wondering when it will get better?

When writing your ‘life list’, it is important to be very specific. If it is a new relationship, what type of character do you want? What interests do you want them to share and what do you really want out of the relationship?  The same principles apply for money, health and career. It isn’t enough to want ‘more’ – is $1.00 more ok?  Probably not!  So you need to be clear on what it is you really want so you can then start moving towards it.

If you do this you will get more clarity on your direction and each week we can build on that.  I imagine that would be a useful thing, wouldn’t it?

Next week, I’ll share with you another tip so you can start moving forward to a better way of life.

Then stay tuned as each week I’ll share information with you on a variety of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) techniques including how to handle stress and anxiety.  I’ll also share ideas about how to design your future and get what you really want out of life.  Improve your confidence, your business, your presentation skills and your relationships!

It may be fun and sometimes even a little crazy – and with a background in theatre– I won’t be able to help myself!

And in the words of Henry Ford, ‘If you think you can or you think you can’t, you are probably right’.

So sit back folks and enjoy the ‘coach’ ride!

Do You Know Where Your Kids Are?

Tuesday, December 14th, 2010

Do you feel frustrated at not knowing where your kids are or if they are in potential danger?

Every parent dreads that moment when the kids don’t arrive home from school on the bus at the normal time or you arrive to pick them up at a specific location and they aren’t there.  Where are they?  Your heart starts to beat a little faster and you try not to panic as you start ringing their phone or their friend’s phones to find out where they are.

Well if you have experienced any of this, you aren’t alone.  I’ve recently discovered KidTracker which is a software product designed by parents for parents so we can empower ourselves with the information to keep our kids safe.  KidTracker allows you to quickly locate where your child is to within 1 metre of their location.  Just think of the piece of mind that will give you.

As working parents, we appreciate the balancing act we do to be able to get kids to and from school, sporting events and parties and sometimes having to be in two places at once!  Every parent needs to know where their kids are and when you can’t be there, wouldn’t it be great to know that you could easily and quickly track your kids so you know where they are?

Kid Tracker not only shows you their current location but also their previous locations so you know where they have been.  The more information you have as parents then the greater knowledge you have about potential issues and problems.

The biggest fear for parents today is on-line and physical predators.  For years paedophiles have had access to the latest technology to get to our kids even in their own homes through SMS, email and on-line activities.  Now you as a parent have access to the state of the art Kid Tracker technology to fight back and keep your children safe.

I’m blown away by the amazing features included in Kid Tracker which allows you to find out who your children are communicating with.  To locate them quickly, especially if they are in danger.  Are they really at a sleep over at their friends place or have they snuck out to a party where there is a possibility of drugs and maybe even alcohol fuelled violence?  Are they hanging around the wrong crowd? To monitor emails and SMS messages to ensure they are safe from predators or unwanted advances.

Imagine being able to discover that your child is depressed through the messages they send to their friends.  Now you can be armed with knowledge and take action to avoid your child participating in any kind of self-harming activities.

As parents we need to protect and guide our kids and Kid Tracker is about being aware of what is really going on with our kids.

Kid Tracker enables you to focus on the protection and safety of your kids and gives you an opportunity to educate your kids in a proactive and supportive way so they can enjoy their childhood without looking back later in years with regret.

Kids are not adults – not yet.  So let’s make sure they have the best childhood and are nurtured, protected and guided towards the best possible future.

Our readers can get a 5% discount on Kid Tracker with your Kid Tracker discount voucher by visiting  http://www.lifechangingsolutions.com.au/kid-tracker.html

Let’s keep our kids safe from harm.

Bye for now
