The jaw talk!

Releasing the Jaw: talk and demonstration from Body-Mind Coaching 16th Nov 8pm

You might not have worries about the sinking stock market, as this article from the Daily Grind alludes to.

But you may still have other business/life worries that are subconsciously causing you to clench and/or grind your teeth without realizing – especially when you are asleep. And, as the article goes on to explain, such activity can lead to a surprising number of damaging health issues throughout the body.

As you might expect, tightening the jaw in this way can be the cause of persistent headaches, tinnitus and sinus problems. But the repercussions of teeth grinding and jaw tensing can extend well beyond that.

Julie Nicholls of Body-Mind Coaching is putting on a talk and demonstration to show the extent of the effect this habit has on the body and how you can address it.
This is your opportunity to blow raspberries and puff out your cheeks and learn other techniques and strategies.

Language tip to remember things and get what you want!



Of course this is what many people say. This is because the brain does not recognise a negative. In the same way you can't not think of a pink elephant, you can't not forget. You can think of a blue one instead but this is not the same as not thinking of a pink one. 

If you want to 'not forget' you need to tell your brain what you actually want it it do which is to remember and be specific about when you want to remember. 

When we do remember it is important that we acknowledge our brain for what it has accomplished i.e. what we have asked it to do and remembered something. 

However most of the time we beat it up about it and say, Oh I forgot..... actually no, you have just remembered! If you keep telling a child off, every time it does what you asked it to do (just not at the time you want, because you did not specify a time) then it will give up even remembering so that it doesn't get told off.   Tell yourself I need to remember to do/get such and such before I go to or before and give a specific time. 

So remember, be kind to yourself all the time, there are plenty of people out there ready to put you down, you don't need to do it to yourself.

Having happy feet can make you fell happy too!

Powerful questions to help you get clarity

Just saw a quote by Einstein which said: 'the important thing is not to stop questioning'

It is important though to ask the right kind of questions though!
Open ones rather than closed ones- i.e: ones that don't just have a yes or no answer.
Also I usually say don't ask questions starting with why, because we often don't know why (especially children) and even knowing why may not solve the issue.

I have noticed that when I am asked: 'why did you ....',  I immediately feel attacked, it feels like I have done something wrong and I need to justify my actions.  Being asked why I left the drawer open again, will just make me respond because I hadn't finished and was going to put the thing back I got out of there. This does not help the person who asked the question feel any better about it, nor does it help me change the behaviour that is obviously irritating the other person. By this time we are both defending our own position and an argument may arise.

If the person asked themselves what is it about the drawer being left open that irritates me, then they might find out they feel it is dangerous. Then they could say they would feel safer and more comfortable if I shut the drawer even if I am coming back later. This then doesn't sound like an attack and I am much more likely to respond favourably to the request.

Questions beginning with where, when, how, what will give you a much better idea of what is going on in the other person.
For example:
how does.. affect... what you do
how often does this occur,
when does such and such. occur,
what makes .....happen.

Here are some questions I ask clients that might help you understand more about what is affecting the way you feel.

When does it happen?
When is it worse?
When is it better?
How long have you felt this?
When did you first experience this?
What is it you would like instead?
Where were you when you first felt that way?
What helped you then?
Can you use that now?
If not then what else could help you?
What might stop you from doing that?
How can you overcome that?

Well I hope that just going through these questions has already helped you and if you want more then let me know, you don't have to struggle on your own, face to face or skype sessions are available, .
