What do onions have to do with psychology?
Fix your challenges with deeper levels of consciousness.
"No problem can be solved
From the same level of consciousness
That created it."
~ Albert Einstein
It means that simply saying
"From now on I will do the opposite"
Usually doesn't work.
Instead, we have to
"Peel down the layers of the onion".
What does this mean
For your wishes, dreams & intentions?
How to secure a joyous outcome of our
September-After-Break-Fresh-Start resolutions?
The secret is to dig a layer deeper,
To go below the level of consciousness
Where the issue originated.
Let me explain by this example:
If you are a little overweight
Because you eat a bit too much,
Thinking "I will eat less"
Usually does not create lasting change...
The weight loss can be solved
By understanding why we overeat.
Bored? Unfulfilled? Irritated?
Solve that,
And the overeating will cease.
Wish to be more patient with the kids?
More loving to your partner?
Fitter? Speaking your truth?
every time these land in my inbox, I read, absorb and LOVE them. I love the titles, the way it is laid out, the content is always spot on. I always want to read it and usually share them.
Just saying how much I keep loving what you do.

The solution is not (generally speaking)
"From now on I will be more
Patient/Loving/Visiting Gym/Honest".
(Sorry, don't want to spoil your fun).
From my 12 year of being Coach
I have seen what does work.
We need to tackle the layer underneath:
What's the fear when speaking your truth?
What's the reason for being less loving?
What's causing the exhaustion,
That prevents you from visiting the gym?
Life is like an onion. You peel it off one layer aT a time, and sometimes you weep.
- Carl Sandburg -
When we solve the underlying root
The thing you wanted becomes so easy,
Almost like an effort-less side-effect.
With love,
