What Being A Loving Person Will Do For You!

03/24/2011 22:04:00

Once you make the decision to stop allowing your emotions to rise and fall at the whim of your addict's ups and downs, you are ready to begin exploring the concept of being a loving mirror!

Being a loving mirror means being there for your addict in a powerful way: with a sense of calm objectivity, without judgment, with tremendous empathy, and abiding self care.

Once you put this tool into practice, your inner peace will be the prevailing mood in your life by choice, not because the addict in your life IS or ISN'T acting the way you want him or her to!

Sound too good to be true?

Is This The Year You Find Your True Purpose?

01/01/2011 12:55:00

With every year that goes by, we either get closer to fulfilling the purpose for which we were born or further away from doing so. Which is it for you?

Until a couple of years ago, I knew there was something I was supposed to be doing and that what I was doing was NOT it! For years, I prayed to find my purpose, to figure out exactly what it was that my Higher Power wanted me to do in this life.

Then I went through a course in which I was able to find out exactly what was missing in my career and my life path and once I began putting those things into place, I went through a shift that has been stunning in its effect on my life.

That detailed purpose knowledge, along with an understanding of how to go about making the changes I needed to make to live a more purposeful life, have made all the difference for me and, since then for the many clients I have helped.

Basically, in my case, I found that it is my purpose to help addicts and their families find their way. I do this through coaching, developing and teaching courses, and writing blogs and books.

I help people deal with the effects of living with an addict. I help addicts who want to change their lives develop a plan to do so. I also help people in recovery to find their life purpose and then to figure out how to make it come alive in their life.

So, that's me. That's my purpose. In a phrase, I bring purpose, connection, sanity and peace to addicts and their families. And in that process, I get more purpose, connection, sanity and peace in my own life. Purposeful living gleans purposeful results

So, what about you? What's your reason for being? Would you like to know? I can help you figure it out. I offer individual coaching as well as classes in person and in the form of teleseminars.

Let's talk. I offer a complimentary session. During that time, you'll tell me your goals, dreams, challenges, and we will figure out together if I'm the one to help or if there is another path that would be better.

Reach out today! I'm only a phone call away. You can reach me at 786 859 4050 or, if you prefer email, write me at recoverycoachbev@theempowermentcoach.net .

All the best,

Coach Bev

Trust God, Love People

12/12/2010 00:18:00

If you are feeling like your addict is untrustable, know that there is one you can trust. Your Higher Power loves you more than you can imagine and is One you can trust to get you through whatever life is bringing your way.

You can trust your addict to be him or herself. If your loved one is actively using, you can trust them to continue to do so and you can trust them to do all of the deceiving that goes along with that using.

If your loved one is diligently working a recovery program, you can trust they will practice, practice, fall, fall, much like you do in your program of recovery.

People aren't perfect. So, let go of expectations, take out a huge dose of acceptance, and keep the focus on yourself!

Remember, your only obligation to another adult in your life is to be a loving person! To find out what that entails, sign up for my newsletter through my facebook page by going to facebook and doing a search for The Empowerment Coach. Click on the Four Foundations link and sign up for my newsletter. OR send me an email at recoverycoachbev@theempowermentcoach.net . I offer courses and coaching to help the family members of addicts find their way to peace and sanity and would love to share my materials with you!

Send me an email and ask for my Trust God and Love People PDF. It's short, sweet and to the point. You can put it on your fridge as a reminder of who to trust and who to accept and love.

All the best,
