A Note from Mary...
Everywhere I go lately, whether I am sitting in my hair dresser's chair, getting a chiropractic adjustment, standing in line at the grocery store, I find myself on the receiving end of relationship stories that are causing people unhappiness, discomfort and in some cases, extreme pain.
You can't turn on the TV during the day and not get a talk show where they are interviewing an author discussing the same old tricks, tips and strategies for us to try harder and how to manipulate one another into better behaviors that will only modestly work!
Even one of the most successful techniques known - Positive Behavior Support - PBS - a very excellent system - latest statistics reported only has a 65% observable improvement rate. So what's missing?
There's a reason why all of our "try hard" efforts are getting us a mere modicum of happiness with the people we live with, work with and want to play with! That reason has everything to do with "attitudinal energy."
Maybe you've watch my free Energy Illustration video at my website and thought, "I don't believe in this muscle testing stuff." That's fine. And yet, I suspect that there is a part of you that has to admit that you feel it when someone is being condescending or judgmental ... Yes? You don't like it do you? It's not always easy to successfully blow it off and pretend it's not happening. If you did acknowledge that something negative is happening then you'd have to figure out what, if anything, you could do about it! And that's where many people try to put their heads in the sand hoping it will blow over.
Even my hair dresser is now "owning" her energy in trying to be harmonious with her baby's daddy, his wife and his mother! This past visit, I was thrilled that she's now experiencing herself take her power back "energetically" ... feeling her energy coming back into her body "in the moment" while facing off with unskillful and hurtful behaviors and condescending attitudes. "YEAH!" I cheered ...giving her a great big hug and heartfelt acknowledgment as we concluded my hair appointment with her yesterday!
Regarding Muscle Testing Briefly Put: It is just one way to illustrate for people to get their minds around that "You Can't Have an Attitude and Keep It a Secret."
There's the "attitude" that it takes to be positive and successful … and then there's the "ATTITUDE" that can create deep chasms and insidious undercurrents in relationships that are 100% unproductive and unnecessary with the right understanding.
Through the life experiences and research I did for my book, I have field tested illustrations about what you can simply "think" to dissolve those little hard nuggets - diamonds in the rough - we hold about ourselves and each other that keep us from having the experiences we really would prefer to have!
This is significant information for the person who intends to advance their career and financial income possibilities, have a loving harmonious marriage, raise happy, healthy, productive children or be of greatest service in their communities. |
