Life With Gene

The holidays seem to bring out the best in some, but for many it appears to bring out the worst. Studies show that in spite of all the “feel-good” movies, Christmas Holidays are very stressful for most.

The entire marketing aspect of the Christmas Holidays and gift giving creates unwarranted fears and/or worries.

We have expectations about how others should act. We expect we should “receive” specific gifts. We stress over what to buy our loved ones – or worse yet we feel inadequate for not having the funds to buy someone special that “ultimate” gift.

I want to help you with this.

Ask your self “What if…”

• This Christmas you made the decision to just accept your self as you are right now?
• You chose to begin practicing self-love today?
• You decided to accept others as they are?
• You were to begin forgiving all those who have caused you pain or suffering?
• You stopped worrying about money, finances, loan payments and instead focused on all the “good” in your life?

Can you imagine how great your Christmas Holidays would be if you made those “what if” decisions?

Guest Post by Tara Springett

I have given many talks on the topic of finding love and creating a deeply satisfying relationship. I always start by telling people that the most important thing for finding true love is to WANT a loving relationship with all our heart.

We need to admit that we are missing something and deeply desire someone to fill in our sense of deficiency. In other words, we need to accept and own our need for a relationship. This seems like a very common sense thing to advise – almost banal – but no sooner have I said these things that many people in the audience will object.

People will tell me that they do not feel deficient, that they do not ‘need’ a relationship and that they believe that they can only find a relationship when they feel whole and complete in yourself. Read more…

I was recently contacted by Tara Springett who is the author of several self-help books, a Buddhist teacher and a fully qualified psychotherapist.

She has created an excellent resource to help others make their wish come true for 2011. Tara has enjoyed great success with her clients, and would like to share this success with a larger audience.

Tara’s words in the email she sent were: “I think your readers will resonate with my manifesting-your-dreams resource. It is new and completely free.”

She has graciously provided me with the programming code so I can share it with my readers. I have posted her resource immediately below this introduction – which allows you free (no opt-in) and immediate access to Tara’s interactive manifestation tool.

After you have used it, I would appreciate your feedback by posting a comment. You are welcome to come back and use it as often as you like.

Enjoy!

Relationships, especially with family, are responsible for more love and happiness than money or financial prosperity could ever produce.

They can also be a source of emotional pain and suffering which again money can’t solve.

Here we are in February, with Valentine’s Day quickly approaching. What does this day mean to you?

Do you get excited for the opportunity to shower your mate with gifts or perhaps go out for a romantic dinner with the hopes of casting a shadow over the past years problems?

It started out so wonderfully. You met, dated, fell in love and both of you spent probably the first six months to a year doing everything possible to impress your new found mate.

Happily you made plans for a perfect life together, filled with love, passion and success. You worked hard and saved your money for the home of your dreams, new furniture and perhaps a new car.

Maybe children were born, adding more love to your life while simultaneously creating financial strain on the budget. The love and attention for each other became focused on the children.

What happened to your relationship anyway? Read more…
