JANUARY NEWS LETTER

This my collage that I have made during the 28 days program and I am following my dreams...You can do that too...Get started straight away, don't wait any longer...

Dear Readers,

While writing this I am following my own new path...I can live in the beautiful country of Andorra, while working with people from the different countries...Online world is connecting more and more people and you will easily share the same interests...For me this year has started well and I am realizing some of my dreams right now...My program Your Second Spring is part of them...Soul Coaching has changed my life too...

Almost one month has past of this new year and one more year is behind you.

Has anything change in your life jet?

Have you keep any of the New Years resolutions?

What are the things you would like to change in your life?

Making changes in your life it's not always easy. But we can start with baby steps towards something better. Hectic life, stress, competition and negative situations and people suck all the positive energy of our life. To live a balanced life and to keep us healthy, we need to change our lifestyle. The body needs good nutriments to keep us physically moving, the mind and soul need peace and quiet time to help the whole body to relax. We all need to have an emotional check-up and tell to ourselves where we are emotionally at the moment.

We all have had turning points in our lives, but do you know which are yours and how they have affected you?

Sometimes we feel that we have made wrong choices in our lives but all what we choose has a purpose to serve us. Only that way we can grow.

To makes changes in our life we have to honestly analyze our life and be truthful for ourselves about it. What we really want from our life? Is our relationship working as we want to? What about our work, are we satisfied about it? Have you find a purpose in life? What you would like to change in your life?

All these are the questions that most of us thinking quite often. To have some answers for these questions we need quite and calm time to listen our soul. Your soul is your essence and it knows you better than anybody else. But do you know how to listen your soul?

The Soul Coaching program helps you to learn more about yourself. By going through the 28 days program you will help your self to get more balanced and by learning to tell the truth about yourself will help you to carry on with more positive thinking and it will open your life to something new. Your will get rid of physical and emotional clutter and your life will look much clearer to you. You will learn to live in the present, having memories of the past but not living in the past anymore. You will gain more joy of life and enjoy more small moment here and now. You will makes your dreams to happen in the future and not worrying about it any more.Your life will enter in to a new path...

I am grateful to all of you who are following my Your Second Spring blog and those one who has already started with the 28 day Your Second Spring program with Soul Coaching and Detox.

With Love

MEDIA BRAKE...

Detox your mind and soul by keeping a media brake. Most of us read the newspaper in the morning. On the way home from work, we likely to tune into a news bulletin on the radio too. Some people are listening the radio the whole day at work. So instead choose a nice music chanel. Given the often unsettling and tragic headlines we are fed. It's no wonder we feel anxious at times. Just for a week, try focusing only on the good news and nice soothing music that suites you. Cut your TV watching time in half and only watch positive programs, no news, no crime series, just funny and anything that you can maybe learn something new.
Tune out and made a date with your CD collection. The right piece of your favorite music in the evening makes you calmer and relaxes you. Soothing, calm music can have a profound and immediate effect on your stress levels. After a week you feel much better...

RELAXING BATH

Have a bath treatment at home...Your sense of smell is directly linked to the limbic system in your brain- the seat of emotion. this explains the extraordinary power fragrance has over your body and mind. indulge in a aromatic bath with some bath salts and aromatherapy oils and light few candles around you.

Cocoon your soul in the fragrant pleasure of a perfect bath... Close the door...Close your eyes. Breathe in the calming scents of essential oils and herbs. breath out stresses of the day. Relaxing in a warm bath relieves sore muscles and joints, reduces tress, and promotes a good night's sleep. Add soothing music, soft lighting and a bath with lavender and chamomile essential oils to calm your senses. You can create a real spa experience in the privacy of your own home.

There must be quite a few things that a hot bath won't cure,

but I don't know many of them

JUST IMAGINE...

...How wonderfully restful it would be to get a good night's sleep. If you find it difficult to drift off, try this once you have switched off the lights. Imagine yourself on an island at twilight. Feel the warm evening breeze against your skin, carrying with it the sweet perfume of delicate flowers. Look at the darkening water and listen to the rhythmic sound of the lapping waves. taste the faint traces of salt and sand on your skin. The more vivid your visualisation, and the more senses you involve, the more effective it will be.

6 WAYS TO RELAX YOUR BODY & MIND

Feeling tense, irritable and overstretched? Pause for a minute...And breath...Deeply...And then experiment with these slow-down ideas...

1. EXAMINE YOUR EVENING

Skimping on sleep affects your stress levels and immune system. Leaving you sluggish, forgetful and tense. Aim for at least seven hours of sleep every night, and if your schedule allows it, a 20 minute power nap in the afternoon too. Remember, rest and relaxation go hand in hand. Have an effective wind-down routine, which includes switching off the TV at least an hour before you climb in to your bed. And avoid heavy meals and alcohol shortly before turning in.

2. GO THE HERBAL ROUTE

Try a few drops of lavender essential oil on your pillow at night to encourage restful sleep. When you feel stressed during the day, inhale a few drops of basil, clary sage, lavender and sandalwood essential oils on a tissue. If your anxiety is also accompanied by a headache or muscular tension, add drops of marjoram and chamomile. A soothing soak in a scented bath with few drop of these oils in the bath water can also aid relaxation.

3. STROKE A CAT

Or hug a dog. Animal "therapy" is powerful medicine, and a wealth of research shows that close contact with a much-loved pet can greatly reduce your anxiety levels.

4. EXPRESS YOURSELF

When certain feelings are uncomfortable for you, pick up a pen. Putting things down on paper is a healthy way of releasing emotions you don't want to express physically. Writing is a way to rid yourself negativity and anger, but it's also therapeutic tool for self awareness. As you commit words to paper, you begin to observe your patterns and wrestle with your demons. Writing helps you to explore concepts like forgiveness, courage and authenticity.

5. MEDITATE

Find a comfortable spot and sit or lie on your back . Choose a specific word that has positive connotations for you - a mantra, of sorts- and close your eyes. Next start consciously relaxing your muscles. Begin with your toes. Feel them loosen up, work through your feet, legs and torso, and all the way up to your head. Breathe deeply and slowly, and repeat the chosen word on every exhalation. After five minutes you should be able to sense the tightness leaving your body.

6. REMEMBER TO BREATHE

Give yourself the gift of 10 minutes. Lie down on your bed, or on a towel on the floor, with your feet about 50 cm apart. Your head and your neck should be aligned with your back. Close your eyes and practise diaphragmatic breathing with your hand gently resting on your abdomen. Ensure your chest isn't doing all the work. Concentrate on the rhythm of your breathing, until it becomes smooth and regular.
