Category Archives: Private Practice Notes

Here is where we talk about the nitty gritty of day after day being in a room with a client in person, on the phone, or just doing the proxy work, in the absence of other practitioners with whom we can interact.
Here we can talk about how to nurture ourselves and stay connected to our best selves and peers while in the service of others.

Holiday Tasks and Nourishing Myself with the Light of the Eclipsing Full Moon

I remember a time when I received holiday cards or calendars from every professional person who considered me their patient. It is a custom that seems to be dwindling, or is being replaced by e-cards and I am a little sorry that this is happening.

I felt appreciated when I went to my mailbox and received the cards. So, I follow the tradition and send out cards to my friends, acquaintances, members of The Group, and happily to my clients.

I usually find the prospect of the huge number of cards to buy, label, stamp and hand write messages in rather overwhelming. I also hand write messages to another thirty people who work in my building.

This year I had a wonderful surprise. My computer quickly printed my labels without a glitch and I did some modalities before starting to write the cards.

In particular, I grounded myself in my tenth chakra, used the Remembrance process, put on Turner Classic Movies for background. To my delight the huge task was finished smoothly and with my remaining connected in my heart.

All of the cards were mailed on Monday. I hope that all of my clients, students and Group members experience something positive when they get their card. I hope they receive my gratitude and acknowledgement.

In the wee small hours of the next morning I bundled up, stood outside on my terrace and felt the quiet peace of a cold city night. I took a few shots of the full moon as it was beginning to be eclipsed. The sky was cloudless for the first half hour.

I stood outside until about 2 AM. I focused my eyes on the light of the moon and I felt subtle but powerful energy buzzing under my feet. While watching the event I felt like I was bathing in the wonderful light as it touched my bare face.

Unfortunately, I was tired and cold and it promised to be a long process.  Here is one of the pictures I took.

More about the full moon eclipse will follow in another post.

Another Tool to Nourish Myself and My Practice

I am continuing to use Mark Silver’s Rembrance process as many times a day as I can.  Last week I introduced his work and gave a little  information about how his business www.heartof business.com is enriching my life and my work.

This week I have added to that technique a new, very easy process to ground myself more deeply to the earth than I have been before. All I do is imagine my symbol that energetically anchors me to my tenth chakra and I recall it right after I open my heart more with the Remembrance process.

You can learn about how to discover your own tenth chakra symbol by reading the article What Happened in December Group in this week’s Newsletter.

I have been sharing this new tool whenever I muscle check it to be appropriate with my clients this week and not surprisingly many of the issues and Repatternings done this week  related to this material.

Personally, I have found using my symbol to connect me to my tenth chakra to be as if Mother Earth is feeding me pure sustaining nutrients. In a difficult situation this week I opened my heart and recalled my new symbol. Obstacles to clear communication seemed to disappear and peace was easily restored in the relationship.

Try it.. I bet you’ll like it. Then  please tell us all about it right here!

How I Nourish Myself and My Practice

Since July I have found two sources of support for my business that are not only nourishing, but they have allowed me to generate even more energy and excitement for my work than I have had recently.

I have never considered myself a business person, so putting together a vision and plan for my work to attract the best people that match my skills was not my strong point. I have been working with Carolyn Winter ( My oracle and business coach) to take the plunge and learn to use the new tools that support my business Intentions. My updated website and this blog is the first result,( even though it is clearly a work in progress). Carolyn has many ongoing and new programs to offer Practitioners in developing their practices. One way to contact her is through her blog  http://CarolynWinter.wordpress.com

You’ll be so glad that you did contact her.

Another very profound way that I have found to nourish myself in my private practice especially is through the work of Mark Silver. His business is called the Heart of Business. When you subscribe to his blog http://www.heartofbusiness.com/ you can get his free download called Getting to the Core of Your Business. I have found the process presented in this download, The Remembrance process,   to be incredibly nourishing to my heart and my work. More about his work and my experiences with Mark at a later time.
