Sun, 18 Sep 2022 16:11:36 +0000 https://ruthybaker.goe.ac/YouTube/jULg2R7rUVE https://ruthybaker.goe.ac/YouTube/jULg2R7rUVE It's interesting to look back at your life and realize something about all of the bad days that you've ever experienced: You've survived every bad day you've ever had. When you think about it, that's pretty amazing, right? Because, at the time, you weren't sure if you could get out of the quagmire you felt stuck in. But you did. And you will again. Just because you're having a bad day, It doesn’t mean you have a bad life. Dealing with What's Inside Your Mind Sometimes, finding the answer to the problem of how to turn a bad day into one you can cope with, can be as simple as looking at what's inside your mind - and looking at the problems you're facing in a different way - literally. Try this: If the problem at the root of your bad day is causing you to feel like crap, then remember that the feeling is simply a thought travelling through your body. One way to gain perspective on what's happening in your life is to move the thought out of your mind, as you'll find the corresponding crappy feeling will follow suit. So, examine the thought in your mind. Is it a picture or a movie? Once you've found it and discovered if it's a still image or short video, shrink it down to the size of a postage stamp (remember those?) If it's in colour, drain out the colour and make it black and white. If it's a movie then freeze frame it into a still image. Now make the image foggy grey and merge it all together. Next, push it out of your mind and way over to the other side of the country you reside in. Send it way out over yonder until it's barely an atom in size. Leave it there. Practice this every time an unwanted thought intrudes on your day. It enables you to have a bit more mental bandwidth to deal with stuff, dials down the intrusive thought patterns and calms unhelpful emotions. All of which can mean you're more likely to get a good night's sleep and feel better the next day!

But, in the meantime, what to watch out for? Here are 8 signs of being addicted to tarot phone lines: • You feel totally overwhelmed with what is going on in your life and repeatedly phone fortune tellers to gain ‘clarity’ over your situation. • You go to psychics with the same problem over and over, but feel unable to change the situation you’re in. • You feel guilty about the amount of money you spend on psychic readings or find yourself in debt because of them. • You tell yourself that you need to stop this behaviour but then cave in for ‘just one more reading’. • You are not comfortable with ‘uncertainty’ in your world, particularly when it comes to relationships, finances or career. • You become anxious about the possible outcome of a situation and cannot wait for the state of affairs to unfold itself. You want to know right now what’s going to happen. • You jump from psychic to psychic to ‘verify’ the information you have been given by previous psychics. • You doubt your ability to steer your own course in life due to feelings of fear and confusion, so you reach out to someone else to guide you. Do you want to finally stop phoning psychics and tarot readers, spending too much time and money on the psychic phone lines?

If you’re a Childless-Not-By-Choice woman it’s likely that you’ve felt pressure to have a child to feel ‘complete.’ As if you’re a jigsaw puzzle with a missing piece. And without it, you’ll never have peace. Yet the truth is that you’re not lacking. It’s simply the critical voice in your head that makes you think you are. In essence, the critical voice is made up of all the ideas, beliefs and societal values that you’ve absorbed throughout your life. The only problem is that you’ve decided they’re yours. If the beliefs you hold are ones that make you feel positive about living a childless life, then that’s great. But the fact you’re reading this indicates that perhaps you view that your childless situation means your life is lacking. It’s understandable if you view your situation negatively, given how being a mother is viewed as a woman’s true raison d'etre by a large number of people. But you’re not lacking. You never have been. But to give meaning to life, you may now be left feeling as though you need to find a purpose in life. In other words, you feel you need a Plan B. This video is a demonstration of Meridian Tapping Points and is part of a blog, with additional resources, that I did for my private Facebook Group: Childless-Not-By-Choice - Healing & Moving Forward. If you're a woman who hasn't been able to have children, either because of infertility, or because of circumstances, and you're still trying to overcome the emotional pain, then this private Facebook group is for you. The private Facebook group - Childless-Not-By-Choice - Healing & Moving Forward. It's for blogs and healing resources (such as EFT Meridian Tapping, Hypnotherapy, Guided Meditations, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, and much more) to help recover from the emotional trauma of being childless-not-by-choice, and move forward with your life.

Mon, 08 Jun 2020 10:58:41 +0000 https://ruthybaker.goe.ac/YouTube/TPfoYKBnU3Q https://ruthybaker.goe.ac/YouTube/TPfoYKBnU3Q How to deal with insensitive comments is something that most childless-not-by choice women have to learn. Perhaps, like me, you’ve been on the receiving end of hurtful words that shock you or cause you to feel completely pissed off. It’s true that some comments are well intended, but even so, they can leave you reeling. But sometimes the words used are intentionally hurtful. Spiteful even. Most times, they try to minimise how infertility or childlessness affects you. Even worse is the sense of entitlement others feel they have to tell you how lucky you are that you can’t have kids, don’t get your sleep disturbed, can do what you like, and imply that you should get over it. Believe me, I’ve heard some corkers in my time. My jaw has dropped at the tactless and unsympathetic things people have said. I do understand the pain and frustration caused, the impact on your sense of self, the need to withdraw and cocoon yourself, and sometimes the desire to lash out. So, how to deal with insensitive comments? The first port of call is to deal with the emotional sting you feel, and for that I recommend Meridian Tapping. There are various forms of Meridian Tapping, such as EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), TFT (Thought Field Therapy) and different derivatives. All of these techniques involve tapping on meridian (acupuncture) energy points, while ‘tuning into’ the problem, thought, or feeling that causes you to feel upset. Take a look at the video for a demonstration of Meridian Tapping.

Sun, 26 Apr 2020 11:31:39 +0000 https://ruthybaker.goe.ac/YouTube/9PV1bYy7qiE https://ruthybaker.goe.ac/YouTube/9PV1bYy7qiE Many people are beating themselves up for not making huge achievements during the lockdown period. After all, they say, we’ve got the chuffing time. Maybe so, but then we’re al in the middle of a pandemic. And that means our brains are on high alert. Difficult to concentrate on stuff when your brain is only concerned with keeping you alive. It does that by ramping up the feeling of anxiety and fear, constantly scanning the environment for potential threats, and generally making your mind become a grasshopper, bouncing from one worry to another. Not really conducive to achieving massive goals, eh? But if there’s something you do want to achieve it’s still possible. You just need to take tiny steps towards it. And as you do so, plan to give each small step your full concentration for a short burst of time. Not only will this move you towards what you want, it will train your mind to focus fully on one thing at a time. This will help you to gain a sense of control and ease down the anxiety. Doesn’t have to be a massive goal or plan of action, just simply anything you’ve been promising yourself you’ll do. Start with one tiny step for five minutes. Then reward yourself with something, even if it’s a cup of coffee or a tasty sandwich, a dab of perfume behind the ears, or listening to your favourite music. Your mind will associate moving towards your goal with a reward, which will reinforce the motivation you desire to get the job done. Try it and let me know how it goes!
