Get Your Love Needs Met!
Valentine’s Day is less than a month away. It is a day when we celebrate romance. Some people refer to it as “Singles’
Awareness Day” because many single people are not romantically involved at the
moment.
When we do not feel love in our lives, we feel it deeply
because we human beings are wired to love and be loved.
Years ago there were studies done of why infant orphans
in Germany were dying at a faster rate than those in Mexico. The orphanages in Germany were more modern, were
cleaner and better organized than the ones in Mexico. In Germany there were better hygienic
practices so the babies’ diapers were changed more frequently and the infants
were fed on a more regular schedule than in Mexico. However, the German orphanages had a higher
mortality rate regardless of what they did.
The studies found the difference was “mamas.” In Mexico the orphanage staff included women
whose sole job was to pick up and love the infants. They would cuddle them, sing to them and give
them human contact. The German
orphanages did not have the “mamas” and the German babies were literally dying
because they lacked love.
We humans need love.
When our love needs are not met, we feel empty and
lonely. Our self-esteem drops and we
feel out of place. Our lives seem to
have less purpose and we long to feel loved.
Four days before Valentine’s Day, February 10th,
I am hosting a day-long seminar at the Shilo Inn devoted to giving you tools
for your love needs to get met. After
this seminar you will never again need to feel unloved, empty and lonely.
Join me on February 10th at the “Ensure an Abundance of Love” seminar where we will add to the information found in
chapters of my book “Get Your Needs Met!”.
We humans need love!

Your greatest weapon against mental health concerns? Is your own MIND!

As my good friend and colleague eloquently suggests in his recent blog post, “Understand Yourself”, being able to develop and employ self-supporting
mantras can be invaluable in changing old worn out thought patterns that no
longer serve us or limit our journey towards durable, healthy and happy lives.
If I may, I would like to add to this excellent insight, a mantra
that I use on a daily basis and with clients, which starts with, “My mind is
powerful, therefore….”. A very simple phrase that can be used to attach positive meaning to any
concern or issue. For example, “My mind is powerful, therefore today will be a
great day!” or “My mind is powerful, therefore my body will heal!” etc... The reason
this works so well is because your mind and heart will listen to your own
voice. If you say it in the mind or out loud, it will become your reality!
Furthermore, it helps to set the tone for self-awareness, empowering us to be mindful
of what we are thinking and affording us a chance to use new tools to change behaviors
and thoughts we no longer need or want.
If we can be
of any help to you, a friend or love one in working through mental health
concerns, please give us a call or stop by during our office hours of 8am to 5pm Monday through Friday. We are here eager to serve and assist you
in making change happen in your life. You deserve to be happy and healthy!
