 Dear One,
As I contemplate how I am showing up in life today, in my work, with my mate, my friends, family and community, I am struggling against the DO monster. I long to BE, but all of my past programming is screaming at me to DO. "Take this action and that action and DO SOMETHING, and get it all DONE. " There are unfinished projects (many of them never past the initial "buy a program or a book" phase) and even more un started ones. It can be so easy to get trapped in the cycle, and to forget that what is MORE important than the DOing, is who and how I am BEing WHILE I am Doing. It does me little good (and potentially harm) to do anything without my heart involved. That means I have to be present WHILE I am Doing. It's one thing to be Present while I eat, or exercise, or meditate, or pray, or even write or study. But to be Present and In my HEART when engaging with a client or my Sweetie or a friend, family, or neighbor is to really BE living in a connected way to life. This is the Foundation for Relating, no matter who you are engaging with in any moment. HOW I show up in any activity will color and shape my experience. All it really takes is an awareness, in the moment, to drop down into my heart and be aware of my energy. What is the field I am generating? Rupert Sheldrake wrote about "Morphogenic Fields" and how they affect the material plane that we all swim in. You have experienced this phenomenon whether you were aware of it or not. You walked into a room and you FELT something. It might have been joyful excitement or it might have been gloom or anything in between but you FELT it when you entered the space. You can create your OWN field just by being present and accessing your heart. Your heart electromagnetic waves have been measured several meters out from your body, unlike the inch or two of your brainwaves. Knowing this, try bringing an open and loving heart to your next activity. ESPECIALLY if it involves a loved one. If you are having issues with someone you care about, it will be even more critical to meet them with this open and loving heart and an intention to LEARN. Set up this field no matter WHAT you are doing and see what it feels like to be BEing as you do what you do. Experiment and enjoy the fruits of LIVING FULLY no matter what you have before you. More on this next time when I share the practice of Blessing Everything. Just warming up, Nina P.S.

Whether you have read the ebook on Inner Bonding or not, I HIGHLY recommend this 7 week course on How To FINALLY Learn to Love Yourself by Dr. Margaret Paul. You can access a free sample introduction to see if it is something you would benefit from here: https://shiftnetwork.infusionsoft.com/go/6s/ninapotter Do you know that self-abandonment is one of the major causes of anxiety, depression, loneliness, addictions, and relationship problems? You’ll be amazed at how much better you feel when you discover how to value who you truly are, how to heal old false beliefs, and how to connect with your personal source of higher wisdom, love, and compassion. This 7-week virtual workshop will give you a roadmap for understanding how to love yourself in ANY relationship — with a partner, family, friends, children, parents, co-workers, and professionals. The tools of Inner Bonding will give you the ability to heal fears of rejection and engulfment that may stand in the way of intimacy — as well as giving you the tools you need to move out of codependency and into emotional freedom. As you learn how to see, value, and love your true self, you will discover what has heart and meaning for you, what gives you passion and your life purpose. In the first session, “Beginning Your Inner Journey.” you’ll discover: * 4 different aspects of yourself that need to be understood and eventually integrated * The intent to learn about loving yourself and the intent to avoid pain through some form of controlling behavior * Various forms of controlling behavior that stem from self-rejection and self-abandonment * How to integrate your essence, ego-wounded self, loving adult and higher Self on another level * The 6 Steps of Inner Bonding * A practice to make you aware of the consequences of each intention Seriously, I love this work SO MUCH that I recently completed a 9 MONTH course with her through this same SHIFT NETWORK. It's amazingly effective when you practice it! Hope you can check it out as even this free intro call is full of useful content: https://shiftnetwork.infusionsoft.com/go/6s/ninapotter In Joy!, Nina  "A common affliction in our society is what is called the Sinatra Syndrome - a do-be-do-be-do imbalance - caused by too much doing and not enough being.

I feel your pain when a situation is not what you imagined for your life or the life of another. That could be your marriage or career, your spouse, your child, parent, neighbor, or someone you don't even know who lives far away and is hungry or in a war zone or reeling from a mass shooting. When we feel strong feelings about something, whether that be sadness, anger, or despair, it is a signal that we are experiencing something we are not aligned with. It is an opportunity to be aware of what we want INSTEAD! These early warning signs can be useful to help us identify what we want to move toward. When we can accept that what IS is what we have to move from or away from, we can still find contentment IN our situation as a “Growth Edge” for our personal development and evolution. That does not mean we have to settle for any kind of contentment WITH it. We want to have the drive and motivation (or Better Yet, INSPIRATION) to make changes in our (or the world's) situation but not at the Expense of our Well Being, which is all about being content with what IS. When we strive to find solutions to issues we are not content WITH from a place of Well Being (or contentment IN), we have better outcomes. We are able to work better with those we are in conflict with, resulting in more of what we want. We access higher intuition and creativity and are able to make better choices and decisions. If you are trying to make changes in your life or the life of others, stop for a moment and notice if you are trading your inner Well Being for nothing and thus hindering your success. There will be less friction and resistance to your efforts when you approach this situation from your contentment in your growth and learning while you do the work of changing that which is displeasing you. In Love and Awe for YOU in your efforts, Nina P.S.

I often talk about how you need to Love Yourself in order to be able to share the love you HAVE, rather than try to 'get' love from outside yourself. The Inner Bonding Method with Dr. Margaret Paul is one of the fastest ways to learn how to get the healing, liberation and ability to live in joy that we all crave inside. I’m excited to introduce you to world-renowned psychologist Margaret Paul’s tools and practices for receiving deep, unconditional love… from within. I’d like to invite you to join her on Wednesday, October 4, for 6 Steps to Finally, Truly Loving Yourself: How to Access the Love You Never Received & Live in Profound Joy. You can find out more and register here for this FREE virtual event: Click HERE During this special session of the Inner Bonding method, you’ll find out about techniques for working with your emotional pain, anxiety and fear — so that you can form healthy attachments with the parts of you that have felt unworthy… and truly LOVE yourself. In this free virtual event, you will: * Receive insights into the core cause of depression, anxiety and most addictive behaviors, from substance abuse to technology. * Discover the 4 most common signs of self-abandonment -- and how to fill the emptiness from the INSIDE. * Realize the #1 cause of relationship problems… and how to address it. * Begin to access your “causeless joy” and your intrinsic worth independent of outer circumstances and accomplishments. The process of Inner Bonding teaches you how to “parent” yourself at the deepest levels so that you can finally experience true love for yourself… consistently. Join us for this illuminating and practical hour-long virtual event by registering here: Click HERE I will be there too because I learn something every time I hear Dr. Margaret Paul speak (and I just finished a 9 month immersion in her method!)

https://www.heartmath.com/freeresources/ It has been harrowing watching my Sweetie ride out Hurricane Irma and her howling Category 5 destrucion only to have BOTH Jose AND Maria on her heels. Fortunately he was able to get a sea plane ferry off the decimated island of St. Thomas and a flight out of St. Croix so he was safe and sound before Maria hit there again. Between the horrific destruction on Puerto Rico and so many beautiful Caribbean islands, the toxic chemical flooding in Texas along with TWO devastating Earth quakes in Mexico and lethal flooding in Nepal, there is a LOT of collective fear, stress, and anxiety going on. Please share the above link with anyone (including yourself!) that may be feeling the effects of life and it's unending challenges so that they might begin the healing and important growth from them. I know these tools work, because I have been using them with great success. Be WELL with added Heart Focused Breathing, Nina P.S.
