What are you GRATEFUL for?

During a beautiful client session recently, we did a wonderful exercise which was all about having an “attitude of gratitude”. You might have heard that term a few times before but it really is very meaningful. So I’m asking you, what are you grateful for?

It’s easy to make a mental or written list of everything you might be grateful for at any time of day. We can start and end the day with a short gratitude list or just think about it as we go about our activities.

No matter how hard life can get sometimes, gratitude is the most powerful way to get into that calmer space, be happier and welcome wonderful new experiences into your life.

This gorgeous quote from the amazing Louise Hay is just perfect, I think.

I have noticed that the Universe loves gratitude. The more grateful you are, the more ‘goodies’ you get.

I don’t mean only material things. I mean all the people, places and experiences that make life so wonderfully worth living
Louise Hay

Did you know research shows that being genuinely grateful:

· regulates the sympathetic nervous system that can calm potential anxiety responses;

· helps the brain to manage negative ruminations and focus on positive thoughts;

· is a catalyst for neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine that manage your emotions, anxiety, and stress response?

How about embodying gratitude through movement?

I love really feeling gratitude in my body. Not just saying words or writing them down but FEELING the gratefulness in my body. If you like the idea of that, then you might like this short yoga practice from Adriene

By consciously practising gratitude, you can train your brain to pay attention to positive emotions and thoughts thus managing and reducing feelings of nervousness or anxiety.

As you can see, I have so much to say about gratitude! And I’ve only just got started!

I ask my clients “what are you grateful for?” a lot in our sessions. Developing the feelings of appreciation for our lives only bring more to be appreciative for.

Forgiveness

Blog / Admin

Louise Hay’s gentle and powerful messages of love, forgiveness and acceptance have inspired me hugely both personally and professionally.

It can be really hard to forgive.

It is a process that can take years. I really believe in forgiving and yet, there are things that I might never be able to forgive. But I’m willing to forgive which is always the first step.

I suggest beginning by forgiving yourself for not being able to forgive in this moment!

I’ve also learned that I do not have to forgive the act itself, but I can try to forgive the person who committed it. The goal is to separate someone’s deeds from who they are as a person.

I have had a rather long, challenging and ultimately freeing journey of forgiving my mother and others who hurt me badly and letting it all go.

If you’re not ready to forgive yet, approach yourself with gentle amusement.

Be kind to yourself and remind yourself that you’ll forgive when you are ready.

By giving yourself that kind of permission, it makes it much easier to get on with life, because you’ve opened up some emotional space for yourself and you’ve accepted where you’re at.

Here’s a little video – How forgiveness lets us free ourselves.

A-Z of Self Love – Forgiveness

Fake forgiveness is temporary, conditional, past is ongoing, motivated by fear and there is anger

True forgiveness is permanent (!), it is unconditional, you state the past is over, it is inspired by love and it takes time

True forgiveness is when you can say, “Thank you for that experience”
Oprah Winfrey

Don’t judge if you see people forgiveness quickly.- it’s not necessarily fake.

Forgiving doesn’t mean forgetting but learning.

Many of my clients have found forgiveness one of the most powerful tools within our coaching sessions.

“But in particular, the exercises on forgiveness were incredible.

I have started a daily practice of forgiveness and it is very freeing.“
Anonymous

Love Yourself Heal Your Life

Blog / Admin

Love yourself and heal your life with me, Liz Doyle. It sounds so simple and we all know it’s not that simple. Well it is pretty simple but somehow we can make it all so complicated. I know I did.

That’s why I know how powerful the work I share is. I’ve been there and have come through the other side.

Don’t get me wrong, I still have days where I question myself, or I don’t feel good enough or I am right in the middle of self-sabotage and procrastination.

But unlike the old days where these feelings would only escalate and I would be dragged down a rabbit hole or whirlpool of self-criticism and sometimes self-hate; I now have so much compassion for myself and remind myself that I am doing the best I can and that these feelings will pass.

I tell myself I am amazing and that I love myself no matter what. I don’t have to be perfect to love myself. I can love this woman who is writing this blog to you, right now, with no conditions.

How has this transformation taken place?

By having a daily practice and using my tools of self-love which I share with my clients in my Love Yourself coaching sessions.

This work has helped many thousands of people to make positive changes in their lives.

These 6 sessions are an absolutely lovely thing to give to yourself for your own personal growth. You will be in a totally confidential, safe and supportive environment.

This is for you if you are ready to:

* Eliminate negative thinking
* Heal the past and stop sabotaging your life

Peggy

“Liz has a welcoming and trustful presence. She communicates with warmth and her sessions took me on a journey towards greater life fulfilment. I enjoyed her wise presence and now feel inspired to take action to lead my best life.”
