Hello Team on the 17th of March 2010
Today I wanted to discuss the importance of allowing yourself the opportunity to retract, hibernate, feel low, feel down and hide away!
Do you have those days sometimes when you just can't face the world? That you just want to crawl back into bed the moment you get up and hide your head under the doona all day? Do you have those days when the basis activities of the day like getting the kids to school, making dinner, making those ever important business calls or getting to the gym feel as if you have just been asked to climb Mount Everest in a pair of high-heel thongs!!! It ain't every gonna happen!!!
What do you do when 'doona day' hits???!!!
Well this is what I suggest:
*First step:
Acknowledge that you are feeling overwhelmed. Take it seriously. For it is serious. You are emotionally, mentally and therefore physically overloaded.
*Second step:
Ask yourself the ever important question, 'What is really going on here?' For you need to know the facts. It is usually not because you are lazy, or useless, hopeless or unable (which is what most think and this is rarely the truth!!!) It is usually because you are ready to reassess your life, to simplify and uplevel to live a greater degree of life success by brining in ‘the path’ for increased peace, happiness, love, health and/ or money into your life.
So step back from the judgement to get a clearer and more authentic view of what is really happening. How about I illustrate with an example:
A client today was feeling just this. She was feeling low, demoralised, depressed and didn't know how she was going to keep going on in her life the way that she was. She was exhausted physically but had reached a time in her career when she was ready to finally take the leap she had always dreamed of. So she was right there in terms of she had set her life up perfectly for this to occur, but she was feeling so overwhelmed that she couldn't get her mind around how she was going to take her next step because she was at her capacity already. She was in crisis. She felt she could not be it all or take on anymore. But she needed to take this next step in her business.
So we took step one and acknowledged that in this moment she felt really scared and had no idea what she was doing and where she was going. Now she is a successful woman so it shows you no matter how 'successful' you are we are all human (my Business Mentor http://www.debpilgrim.com has said this to me before and it resonates so strongly with me now) and face the same challenges of: how do we cope with the everyday whilst remaining sane, in control (without being controlling), feeling strong, safe and well with the capacity to not create problems from moments of distress so we continue to create a life of enriched success?
We took step 2 and asked 'What was really going on here?' for her. What we discovered was firstly her mindset was blocking her from 'seeing' her path and the 'how?' the next phase of her business was possible. We talked her up and out of her old thinking that was saying she wasn't 'good enough' to have the success she was capable of achieving next. The Team actually shown her what, in essence, her next step was by energetically walking her past the fear and into her new world in her mind. They gave her the new dialogue and she 'got' the feeling and sense of the new. Upon completion of this she was a transformed person.
Step 3:
*Use the answers and insights from step 2 to allow your mind to be opened to 'the way' to achieve the answers and insights. For example my client from this morning was able to 'get' in her mind a clear vision, sense and 'action plan' for what she needed to do in order to make her business plans a reality. Up until then it had all seemed impossible because the overwhelming emotion was causing her to 'close her eyes'! So she couldn't 'see' how she was to get there! So she stalled and felt like crawling into bed, never to resurface!!!
I checked in with her later today and she was back to being her! She hadn't hidden away all day and had begun her 'action plan' for her success.
So 'doona days' are not 'bad'. On the contrary they are a infinitely powerful opportunity to spring up and claim increasing success!!! If you handle it correctly!!!
So there is nothing wrong with having a 'doona day'!!! But from above you can see the amazing leverage in dealing with a 'doona day' to gain the skills and abilities to generate increasing success and momentum on your path to living your dreams that it is worth not staying stuck in bed!!!
