My dear friend, Emily Hanlon, best selling author of "Petersburg," loves to call the learned, controlling ego part of you--- the Inner Critic. We both know that everyone has an Inner Critic that needs to be tamed and de-fanged.
Do you know your Inner Critic?
Or does your Inner Critic run the show without you knowing the damage it is doing to your body, heart and soul?
If you don't know your Inner Critic then it is succeeding in its mission to stop your laughter, your pleasure and enjoyment of everyday life.
The Inner Critic can stop you from making love, finishing a book, or completing a business deal. It can create disease, misery and depression. The nasty thoughts delivered non-stop by your Inner Critic need to be exposed in order for you to tame it and de-fang it.
The first step in taming and de-fanging your Inner Critic is to be able to recognize its unhealthy energy as separate from the healthy energy in your psyche.
In my 34 years of teaching people how to recognize their nasty thoughts I know that some of you do not want to expose your Inner Critic. You do not want to admit that you have one!
This is a self sabotage strategy that the Inner Critic executes so that it can continue to stay in control and keep you from playing and being free. You have to expose your own Inner Critic in order to overcome it.
If you are ready to expose your Inner Critic, writing down your thoughts and feelings is a good starting point. Writing can help you pay attention to your nasty thoughts. So start a journal or get back to writing in your journal.
Journaling will help you expose your Inner Critic so you can then take step two in de-fanging this monster. Step two is learning how to take away its energy and power over you. Stay tuned for more about step two next week.

Choices = Results = Power
Every choice you make creates a certain result.
The more aware you are of your choices and
the results that they are creating, the more
power you have over your life.
This is why I have spent the moments of my life
becoming more and more aware. The more aspects of
yourself that you are aware of, the more power you
have.
I define power has the amount of healthy energy
you have available at any given moment in time.
Your stored energy is in your second charka. This
is the source of your physical power. Mothers have
been known to pull up a car to get their child out
from under a wheel by using the stored energy in
their belly.
You too, can do amazing things when you need to if
you have enough power stored in your belly. Begin
to make choices that store up energy in your belly.
FIRE IN YOUR BELLY is an exercise along with many
other grounding exercises which will be taught
at the Nature Workshop in Cape May, NJ on Saturday,
May 1. Join me and a small group on the sand
as we gather the courage to face our fears and
reduce our anxiety.

Move Toward Real Fears and Away From Anxiety
When you are afraid of something, you have the choice to
either avoid your fear or face it.
You could be afraid of snakes, intimacy or death, it really
doesn't matter. Whatever you are afraid of, there is only
one way to overcome your fear.
You have to stop avoiding it and face it squarely in
reality. You cannot jump over it, pretend or fool yourself.
You have to experience that which you are afraid of in order
to no longer be afraid.
This week I faced one of my biggest fear: the death of a
loved one. My Dad passed away. I was with him and my
mother and sister at this dreaded event.
Instead of dread or sorrow, peace was present. We could
feel it in his body, on his face and within each of us. The
peaceful energy was palpable in the room.
When I spoke underneath the red bud trees lining the historical
cemetery of our little church in NC, a 55 year old fear was
also put to rest. My father was placed beside my little brother
who died at 9 months old when I was six.
All fears end up being much more wonderful than you imagine.
Move toward your fears, slowly, to find peace, freedom and joy.
=============================
FEAR IS THE PATHWAY: One hour of the Opening the Heart audio
shows you how to face your fears instead of avoid them.
The other two hours teach you how to feel your emotions and
transform hurt into emotional strength.
Face your fears, grieve and let go.

Valentine's Day Love Advice: Feel Your Emotions
Daily doses of Doris on twitter at:
http://twitter.com/DorisJeanette
If you knew that feeling your emotions was good for
your physical health would you feel them?
At the age of 34, as a young psychologist, I already
knew that if you inhibited your emotions you would have
impaired mental health. As my energy and body work
expanded, I discovered how emotional expression affects
your physical health in real time.
My hands were lightly holding my client's ankles, as I
was guiding him into emotional expression. I took note
of the high degree of static energy in his nervous system.
I was also sensing the amount of energy flowing in his
body. There was hardly any energy moving in and out of his
legs, with a little bit more on the right side than the left.
Suddenly, he started to cry, immediately there was a surge
of strong, healthy energy moving through my hands and
thought-out his entire body. Wow, the dramatic shift from
static energy to strong, healthy energy was undeniable.
Following up with other people I discovered that any emotional
expression has this same effect on the physical body.
You immediately, dramatically increase healthy energy flow in
your cells any time you express your authentic emotions. So,
on this Valentine's Day, 2010 I wish you the joy of
emotional expression.
Love is the strongest, most powerful emotion. Please express
the love you feel to others, to yourself and to the earth.

HOW TO START FEELING YOUR EMOTIONS? Follow the emotional health
guidance in the audio Opening the Heart to learn the six primary
emotions and how to express them for increased vital
energy and more love. Read more and order at:

Valentine's Day Relationship Advice: Feel Your Heart
Valentine's Day is coming up. Perhaps you don't want to celebrate because you are single, don't have a date or don't feel loving toward your partner right now. Or maybe you will celebrate with surface fun and meaningless gestures without fulfilling the deep longing of your soul.
Valentine's Day is a time to celebrate all the many different kinds of love, not just romantic love.
So check in with your heart and look around. Note the colors, flavors, textures, sounds and images in your heart. What does the energy in your heart tell you? Feel the truth in your own heart. How much love is in your heart? Love is a real, honest to goodness energy. When you look in your heart do you sense dark energy? Resentment? Judgment? Hurt? Pain? Love? Joy? Dark clouds?
Love has to do with your ability to love and open your own heart. When your heart is open, love energy can come in and go out. When your heart is closed, love energy cannot get out or come in.
When your heart is open you exchange love energy with others. When your heart is closed there is no real energy exchange. When your heart is open, you feel good, warm, strong, healthy and happy. When your heart is closed you feel alone, empty, dead, unfullfilled.
The best way to increase loving energy in your life is to open your heart. The best place to start opening your heart is to establish a loving relationship with your emotional self. You need to recognize the energy of your emotional self and establish a daily, nourishing relationship with her or him in order to clear the energy in your heart so more love can flow between you and others.
If you get started on opening your heart in 2010, you will have the best Valentine's Day ever!
=======================
GET STARTED: Order the emotional health audio guide, Opening the Heart. The only guide on the market that shows you how to find and establish a loving relationship with your emotional self.

To Reach Your 2010 Goals, Don't Overwhelm Yourself
A client of mine made a great list of goals for
2010...the list had about 25 items on it. However,
by the time I got to the 7th one, I was dizzy.
When I am dizzy, I know there is a good chance my
client could be dizzy too! I was overwhelmed. Since I
trust my feelings and intuition, I knew there was
a good chance her list had overwhelmed her.
Sure enough, at our next coaching session, I
checked out my suspicion. Yes, her long, fantastic
list had overwhelmed her. Does your list overwhelm you?
If so, you will not move forward.
Do not give up on any of your goals for 2010. Instead,
take a look at them and make them realistic. Set up
a few as top priority and let the others go till next
year or the next.
It is much more important to reach your goals than to
overwhelm yourself. When you are overwhelmed anxiety
kicks in and your performance suffers.
For more tips on how to reach your goals listen to
the current show on Live at the Edge radio with
Barbara Biziou and Carrie Armitage:
http://www.ladybuglive.com/edge.htm
And anxiety proof your life for success in 2010.
