A Thanksgiving Tapping For Abundance, and Do You Ever Feel Guilty?
Do you ever feel guilty for not practicing gratitude more? (I know I do) Funny how gratitude feels good, but the human brain just doesn’t turn to it very often.

A victim of my own thoughts…
Do you ever feel like you’re a victim of your own thoughts? Does your mind run away from you… focusing on the negative, the worst possible outcome? I’ve got 3 fingers pointed back at me… It’s really easy to let the fearful thoughts overwhelm us–especially if hard things happened in the past. It’s easy to think…

What makes you feel safe? What if you could trigger that safe feeling more easily? Let’s explore this together… Okay… So when you reach for safety, what do you reach for? Write down the first thing you think of (food, a hug from a certain person, your bed, your pet, or your credit card)
