THINKING WITH YOUR WHOLE SELF:

​Balancing an anxious mind for more peace and productivity


Picture
A 10-week online program for super-smart, high-achieving women
Beta Group Exclusive:  Wednesdays, beginning February 15, 2023
OR
​Full Launch:  Tuesdays, beginning March 14, 2023


​
Sometimes we can be too smart for our own good

Big brains are a gift.
They race through situations that cause others to stumble.
They finish crossword puzzles--all the way, with a pen.
They get straight A's with little effort.
They get to the right answers first, and show the teachers who to call on.
They outsmart everyone else in the room.

Big brains can also get in the way.
When we rely on our smarts to figure out every type of problem, 
we can be left with unanswerable questions and looping thoughts.
Some challenges don't have an answer key.
Some problems require thinking outside the box, even outside the brain.
Problems with relationships, the evolution of wisdom, and steps toward meaning and purpose, 
these all ask for so much more from us than a formulaic answer.

Once you've been recognized for your big brain, 
it can be tempting to use it again and again for getting to the head of the class.
But if you've reached a certain age, and the challenges you're facing can't be solved that same old genius way,
you might be ready for a new way of thinking.
Thinking the same kinds of thoughts over and over again leads to looping, unproductive patterns.
Feeling anxious in your mind and body can consume all your energy, 
when the truth is that you have big plans for the rest of your life.
Isn't it time to kick your problem-solving into a different kind of gear?

Now is the time for your big dream to take center stage in your life.
It is time to switch your focus from others to self,
so that you can create a bigger ripple in the world.
Your secret super powers are ready to explode--don't let your 
Are you looking for a way out of anxious thoughts and anxious sensations?
Is that sweet new way of being calling to you, with more actual growth and soul satisfaction?
Is it time to learn to think with your whole self?

I was an early achiever with a big brain.
It brought me recognition, awards, and skills.
And then, when my life demanded more of me than I was physically or emotionally capable to expend,
I relied on my big brain to figure how to just do more
of what I'd always done:  take care of others, cram my schedule, let others rely on me, overextend.

It worked for a long time.
So I kept doing more and more and even more.
But the day came when it all crashed down on me.
Anxious sensations in my body made me think I was imploding.
Anxious thoughts in my head made me think the world was at an end.

The way I had always thought through situations was no longer serving me.
The many demands on my time, skills, energy, and attention were too much for my big brain to handle.

It took a couple of years, but I eventually arrived at a new way of thinking.
And this type of thinking didn't rely solely on my intellect.
This type of thinking involved my whole self.
It's a more wholistic way of making decisions.  
It's a fabulous way to listening, and responding to, the body, the heart, the spirit, AND the mind.
I call it Thinking with my Whole Self.

Learning how to do this turned the ship around, one degree at a time.
Learning to consider all the parts of me, and to listen to my highest wisdom and lowest impulses, has resulted in my life looking a little bit different on the outside, and feeling massively different on the inside.  Now, when I have an anxious thought or sensation, I stop the presses.  I cease what I'm doing and the way I'm doing it.  I check in with all the parts of me, and I relegate my big brain to its appropriate roles.

I'd like to teach you how to do this, too.
It's not the same for everyone, because we are each unique creatures with a unique design for living this life.
I will help you find your way of thinking with your Whole Self.
And your decisions will never feel the same again.

For the first time, I'm putting all of my skills together into one program.
It's a 10-week program called 
"Thinking with your Whole Self."

Isn't it time you learned to harness your big brain,
to begin using it as it was meant to be used?
It's a tool, and a powerful one.  But you are so much more than that.
Let's explore your uniquely designed brilliance, together.

Program Details

Over the course of this 10-week experience, you will learn about the nervous system and how hard it works to keep us safe.  We will practice safe, gentle techniques for calming an overactive stress response, and apply this perspective to an important Life Goal that has been elusive for you.
​
You’ll learn how to “Think with your Whole Self,” by balancing all the parts of you, and accessing your own hard-earned wisdom in new ways.  We’ll celebrate the ways your big brain helps you move forward, and we’ll take a deep look at how it actually gets in your way.

We’ll bring in lots of somatic techniques for you to try out, one of which is Emotional Freedom Techniques, or EFT Tapping.  With tapping, I will help you to metabolize the blocks that are getting in the way of your big dreams. 

You will also experience the powerful insights that come with Scientific Hand Analysis, as you look at the lines and markings of your own hands.  For this program we will be focusing on your Emotional Style as it is evidenced by the Heart Lines in both hands. 

You’ll leave the program with your own Personal Grounding Map, which helps build confidence in your ability to reset your stress responses at will.  This tool has been so powerful in my own journey and I can’t wait to share it with you.

In order to accommodate as many time zones as possible, we’ll meet on Zoom every week at noon-1:30pm Pacific Standard Time.

  • Week 1:  Wednesday, February 15

A link to Zoom will be provided upon registration.

There are no prerequisites for this class.


The program starts in a few weeks, with a small cohort of 4 women.  Once I officially launch in March, 2023, it will be offered at the full price of $1,995 but for this beta run I’m offering it at 25% off:  $1,496 as a one-time payment, or you can pay in three installments of $500 each.
