In Times of Uncertainty

Image
www.lisasantabarbara.com In light of our current Coronavirus crisis, the fear of uncertainty can be overwhelming and intrusive for making conscious decisions that are in our best interest. You can experience intense fear and anxiety which can be debilitating to our emotional state. This is the time to take responsibility for your own fears, using the tools, techniques and methods you’ve acquired along your life journey. Through your fear; generate your ability to exercise a sense of deep introspection. This morning I was feeling my fear running me, I was feeling my anger running me. My feelings; your feelings are not wrong they are part of us as human beings. This is a practice that I do in times of intense feelings/ emotions or anytime that I’m triggered with emotion. How to use introspection in times of intense feelings/ emotions :   1. Who is the One who can and cannot see the fear/ anger 2. Become the awareness of that One who sees, Be Awareness. 3. Observe the on

Jar of Good Things Lisa Santa Barbara                                        www.lisasantabarbara.com                                          “This January start the year with an empty jar. Each week add a note with a good thing that happened. On New Year’s Eve empty the jar and read about the amazing year you had”. I saw this on Facebook and loved the idea! What a great way to begin a new year, new possibilities and new intentions.This past Christmas I gave my loved ones a Jar to start their own ‘Jar of Good Things’. I’m not sure if they’re committed to doing it, at the very least they are inspired to do so.   I began 2020 with taking note of good things that are happening. I’ve discovered that during these few weeks ( we are only in January) , several good things are happening which has led me to several notes in one weeks time.  The Jar is supporting you to focus on what you define as good in your life. It is very easy to focus on the things you

Defining Love ~ The Ending of a Relationship

Today I write about a blog in consideration of what I learned about Love in my recent ending of a three year relationship.... In my own process of self-inquiry, self-reflection and taking responsibility for my own feelings, thoughts and behaviors. I have discovered amazing insight into my own unconscious beliefs about Love. The Beginning: I met him online and slowly we started to get to know one another. Not spending  much time with one another, going slow.  During this time, I listened to his experiences and words... I chose to unconsciously see him the way I wanted him to "Be" for me. In other words, I took some of what he told me...some of what I wanted to see in him and the rest I made up to fit him into the person I wanted to Believe he was. All unconsciously... up until now. Part of my story is that I always look to see the best in others; we are all intrinsically good at our core. And do to my belief I can look past others short comings, as no one is perfect. I

Creating The Conditions ~ Heartrepreneur Magazine

Recently I published an article in Heartrepenueur Magazine, called Creating The Conditions. Here is part of the article: I’ve been a massage therapist since 2001, and a life coach since 2013. In both arenas I support others in the process of healing. Since 2010 I’ve been working in pain management doing massage, and our intention in the office is to create the conditions for the body to heal itself. The body knows what to do, it’s fascinating and intelligent. It compensates for the injured part and is always seeking balance and homeostasis.  In the pain management office, there’s Chiropractic care, decompression machine, physical therapy, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (tens) unit and massage. We are creating the conditions for the body to heal itself, and the patient/ client has their role as well. It depends on the client to support the healing by how they take care of their body. Taking care of the physical body with proper hydration, sleep, nutrition and exerci

The Purpose of Relationships

This has been coming up for me a lot lately, insight, introspection, deep calling of inner knowing. An awareness of how much being in relationship is truly meaningful to your Soul's realization. When your relationship is new, exciting and fresh. We have a tendency to create a perception of that person, by what they tell us about themselves and the story we make up to fit what we want to see in that person. I call this a perceptual image; you put your all into the relationship your highest dream of what you are to that significant other. Its a mix of how well the other lives up to your ideas, and how well you saw yourself living up to his/ hers. As time goes by you begin to see a piercing of this image. You see the image you envisioned was an illusion of what you were told by this person and what you wanted them to be for you. And more importantly you see  Yourself in relation to this person/relationship, it becomes clear on where your unconscious beliefs are about love and

My goal over the next several months is to find more ways to support and serve others to what they truly want. My skills in coaching clients is supporting others to transcend what no longer serves them, the art of Self Mastery. Shifting the mindset, providing the tools and techniques to shift your thoughts, emotions and behaviors. I achieve this not only through my coaching skills,  also through all that I have learned, used and practiced in my own transcending to Self Mastery.  I use my mentoring and intuitive consulting skills, along with the Creative Soul Journaling process. I do what it takes to provide a massive shift in my clients, shifting them into more control over their inner world which creates a shift in their outer life experience. All change, all outer life experience, all that is happening in your life in this very moment is related to Your Inner World... Only.  It is an inside job , if what is happening in your outer life isn't working for you, change is neede
