DON´T PANIC, NOTHING IS UNDER CONTROL ;)
by Jorge Lara

Don´t panic, nothing is under control. Can you see what means? Take a minute to wonder before continue reading
We do the greatest efforts to control every single moment in our lives. We want our workmate to behave in certain way, our son to do this and that, our body to be more fit, our mum not to call us so often.

Does Hypnotherapy Work?
by Henry Moors

I once had a client who was a fellow Hypnotherapy student. Let’s call her Ann. She was a feisty 50-year-old. She was determined to give up her lifelong habit of smoking. Ann had tried everything.

WHY WOULD YOU NEED A COACH?
by Henry Moors

Isn't it just easier to download information from the web? Contrary to what we are told so often, Knowledge is NOT Power. Applied knowledge is power.

And that's where coaches differ from consultants and advisors and counselors.

Coaches and Cormorants
by Henry Moors

A cormorant is a bird that dives for fish underwater. Some Chinese villagers have reared these birds and trained them to 'fish' for them. Rings are put around their necks so they can't swallow the fish they bring back up to the boat.

by Henry Moors

A well-respected self-improvement guru and coach recently taught me something profound.

How you speak your world determines how you see your world.
How you see your world determines your actions.

TO DO LIST THAT ‘TALKS’ BACK TO YOU
by Henry Moors

There is a coaching modality that is well ahead of its time, a bit like email was ahead of its time in the mid 90’s. But it quickly became a killer application.

Imagine how more focussed and effective you would be if you could communicate with your coach EVERY DAY, regardless of time zone.

Simulate Your Future Rather Than Rehash Your Past
by Henry Moors

Your mind can be a powerful simulator of the future or a simple recorder of the past.

Why would you use your mind to play your past on autorepeat, when you can use it to plan your future in vivid detail? Replaying your past can be extremely depressing.

I Am You
by Serene Martin

So much of pain exists in this world because of the sense of separation we feel between us and everything else. This one was written to inspire us to feel connected .


I am the taste of coffee on your tongue and the glass which holds it against your lips
I am the rage of the storm and the calm of its eye
I am the blade of the knife and the energy with which it cuts
I am the wetness of raindrops and the burn of cigars
I am the green of the grass and the transparency of air
I am the curve of your smile and the depth of your remorse
I am your friend and the friend of your enemy
I am what I am and I am you.

Because We Can Change
by Serene Martin


This goes out to everyone I love. Because we can change….

When I stopped believing in luck, I was no longer a victim of circumstance

When I started looking for ways to celebrate each day no matter what happened, I was no longer trapped in my past memories

When I tried to transform the anger and fear I carried in my heart to acceptance and love, I began to breathe more easily

When I chose to eat clean, my body began to heal itself

When I followed my heart, making the right decisions came easily to me

When I accepted that everyone is on their own path no matter how much I may disagree with them, my own path lit up more clearly for me beneath my feet

When I gave up dwelling on things I could not change, more things started changing for me

When I chose to believe that all the right resources will show up for me when I needed them, they did

When I released the things that I no longer needed in life, I gained the experiences that I desired instead

When I believed with all my heart that the same force of life, which breathed life into me, was on my side, it empowered and protected me wherever I went.

Edge of the Cliff
by Serene Martin

There will come a time when we will need to step over the edge of the cliff of certainty

Where we feel we have extinguished all resources we have grown to rely upon in our spirits

We must believe one of two things will happen:

Angels we never knew we had will catch our fall

Or we will learn to fly

If you really love yourself, dream big.
by Serene Martin


"I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realised, than lord among those without dreams and desires."

-Kahlil Gibran-

Throughout my life I have certainly done things I have enjoyed doing most of the time (thank god for that).
