<p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 18px"><strong>Friday, June 7th  1:00 to 4:00pm</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 18px"><strong>at The Ramos Center, University Place, WA</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 18px"><strong>ONLY $20</strong></span></p>
<p><span><span class="fsl">Women, do you think that life&#8217;s little irritations can&#8217;t keep you from living Your Strongest Life? Then you&#8217;ve never been in bed with a mosquito! <br /> <br /> &#8211; Does your husband or partner ever do anything to push your buttons? (I know, that&#8217;s a loaded question, huh? <img src='http://yourstrongestlife.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':-D' class='wp-smiley' /> ) <br /> &#8211; When your kids trigger your last nerve&#8230; how do you handle it? <br /> &#8211; Do you ever feel so overwhelmed, there&#8217;s just so much to do everyday it&#8217;s not humanly possible to get it all done, and it feels like you are just catching a nap at night and th<span class="text_exposed_show">en starting all over again in the morning?<br /> &#8211; Do you ever lose your temper and want to just throw in the towel?<br /> <br /> Is this the way you want to live? Is this Your Strongest Life? <em><strong>What if you could literally TAP AWAY the live wires inside of you, take the &#8220;sting&#8221; out of them, and those things listed above and so many more won&#8217;t even bother you anymore? Seriously!</strong></em><br /> <br /> Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) or Tapping is a combination of ancient Chinese medicine and modern psychology. A little like emotional acupuncture without the needles. You learn to use a gentle tapping sequence with your own fingertips.<br /> <br /> Learn the basics in only 3 hours and then use it everyday when the little irritations start adding up. PLUS, experience the magic of &#8220;borrowing benefits!&#8221; (The compounding benefits of doing this powerful technique in a group.) Your husband will thank you, your kids will thank you and you will feel calmer and more relaxed. <br /> <br /><span style="font-size: 16px"><strong> ONLY $20!

<p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 22px"><strong>&#8220;Women are the leaders of the future.</strong>”</span></p>
<p style="text-align: right">~Dalai Lama</p>
<p>This morning I read one of my favorite blogs, <strong>The Daily Love</strong> and really liked what this young woman had to say about her adventure to meet the Dalai Lama and the powerful thing he shared with her.    I just wanted to share it with you.</p>
<p>The Dalai Lama speaking to a young woman named Danielle LaPorte when she asked him about the crossroads of her generation.“Well, in the West, you have education, and this is good. And you have technology. And this is good. But, you do not educate your people in values. Values of the heart. Compassion. This you must do.”</p>
<p>“And you see, it does not matter whether you are Buddhist or Christian.” he went on. <strong>“Compassion lives in heart, beyond religion. Even me, Buddhist, I can say, you do not need Buddhism, just the compassion of the heart.”</strong></p>
<p>“Women know this,” he went on. “Because, peace, peace is implicit in women. You put boys together, they make war. You put women together, they make peace. <strong>Women are the leaders of the future.</strong>”  And he laughed. And laughed.</p>
<p> Thank you Dalai Lama!  This validates my very purpose for doing what I do.  To use EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) or tapping to help women get out of their own emotional way, stop subconsciously sabotaging themselves so they can live their strongest life and make &#8220;THE&#8221; difference they are here to make.</p>
<p>Women, you are absolutely here to be the leaders of the future and what you have to bring the world, your unique gift, matters!</p>
<p>What are YOU here to do?  And how is fear stopping you?  What if you could clear that fear and move forward?  You CAN!  Email me at <a href="gwen@yourstrongestlife.com">gwen@yourstrongestlife.com</a> for your complimentary 30 minute phone session.   The world needs you!</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> <em><b>The following are the highlights of a one hour tapping phone session.  A question and echo process.  Women often come to me with feelings of stress, anxiety, fear, self doubt, low self esteem, frustration, sadness, depression and lots of left over emotions from childhood traumas in addition to many, many other reasons.   The tapping calms the body down by clearing the blocked energy and literally taking the physical “sting” out of the issue allowing them to think more clearly and feel the issue from a much less fearful and threatening place.   EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) or more commonly called Tapping is NOT talk therapy.  It is a combination of ancient Chinese medicine and modern psychology.  According to the founder, Gary Craig, “The cause of all negative emotion is a disruption in your body’s energy system.”    </b></em></p>

<p> <br />  <br /> For most people, just reading the above list reminds them about how they feel about their current life, and of their daily obligations, of all the things going on that cause them stress, anxiety and overwhelm. And unfortunately&#8230;<br /> <br /> <em><strong>Most People Have the False Belief That There Is Nothing They Can Do About Stress and That Dealing With It Isn&#8217;t That Important Anyway</strong></em><br /> <br /> But consider this&#8230;</p>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Stress Has Been Shown to Affect The Brain And The Ability to Think Clearly and Make Good Decisions</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>When stress hits, whether at a high or low level, your body goes into what’s called “fight or flight.” In fight or flight, large parts of your brain actually shut down when you need it most. Critical sections of your brain literally go on strike! So if you&#8217;re dealing with stress every day, your brain is not functioning at the level that it could be. Just think about the toll that this can be taking on your professional success (and your ability to make money), how you interact with others (especially your romantic relationships), and how you feel about yourself.</p>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Stress That Gets Stuck In The Body Leads to Long-Term Health Challenges:</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Stress decreases nutrient absorption, increases salt retention making you bloated, affects your cholesterol, and impacts your immune system, endocrine system and nervous system!<br /> To make matters worse, <strong><em>when you go from the “fight or flight” mode of stress into a “freeze” state, your body is effectively storing the stress of that moment. Dr. Robert Scaer, a neurologist who has researched traumatic stress, has found that the “freeze” response encapsulates stress in our bodies, preventing us from moving on after a stressful event until we’ve found a way to release the stress that’s literally lodged in our bodies, in our muscles, even our cells.</em></strong></p>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Stress Releases the Chemicals of Adrenaline and Cortisol Which Both Lead to Weight Gain:</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>These two chemicals have been shown to slow down digestion and constrict blood vessels along with a few other key biological changes that control how your body and brain function and how strong your food cravings come on.<br /> <br /> As Dr. Joseph Mercola says, &#8220;<em><strong>Many people don&#8217;t understand that emotional well-being is essential to their physical health</strong></em>. In fact, in terms of dieting for weight loss, not addressing emotional issues &#8212; whether small or serious traumas from the past &#8212; is the primary reason that most people who lose weight often fail at keeping the weight off.&#8221;</p>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Essentially, when we&#8217;re dealing with stress it affects EVERY area of our lives&#8230;</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><br /> <strong>So If Stress Is Such a Major Issue That Impacts So Many Areas Of Our Lives, Why Don&#8217;t More People Do Something to Deal With It? </strong><br /> <br /> After years of working with clients I&#8217;ve found some similar patterns in regards to why so many people are living with such high amounts of stress, with little or no action taken to deal with it&#8230;</p>
<ol>
	<li>Many people aren&#8217;t even aware of the level of stress they&#8217;re carrying every day. They feel it is &#8220;normal&#8221; for them to feel the way they do and are unaware of how things can feel different.</li>
	<li>Others who are aware of the stress they are carrying don&#8217;t think they can do anything about it. They feel that their finances, health, relationship, emotions and other areas of their lives are out of their control and thus they falsely believe that the stress that they are dealing with is also out of their control.</li>
	<li>Many that are aware of their level of stress and who want to do something about it either don&#8217;t know what to do, or feel that they don&#8217;t have the time to do anything to deal with it, or don&#8217;t feel that it&#8217;s important enough in the scheme of what they have going on in their lives.</li>
</ol>
<p>Unfortunately what most people don&#8217;t realize, what I didn&#8217;t realize for so long in my life before, is the effect that stress, along with anxiety and overwhelm that comes with it, has on all areas of their lives.<br />  <br /> <strong>If There&#8217;s One Lynchpin, One Magical Button, For Improving <span style="text-decoration: underline">All Areas of Your Life</span>&#8230;It&#8217;s to Eliminate the Underlying Stress, Anxiety and Overwhelm That You&#8217;re Dealing With Every Day </strong><br /> <br /> I can absolutely, with no doubt in my mind, promise you that addressing the stress you&#8217;re dealing with will create enormous improvements in all areas of your life and most importantly, will make life significantly easier and more enjoyable.<br /> I&#8217;m talking about&#8230;</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>My client Lisa (not her real name to protect her privacy) has been a client for some time. We’ve worked through some really painful old childhood memories with EFT and cleared them.  She’s even come to me over a year later after she’d basically forgotten that we had tapped on originally, a particularly sensitive issue re: her biological dad.   A new chapter in the long ago drama reared it’s ugly head and as she told me the story, she was still trigger free!</p>
<p>We started out the session talking about how now that she has cleared many “<strong>emotional beach balls</strong>” she was concerned about her eating habits and her weight.  She was ready to finally get to the bottom of it with tapping.  She told me that,  “<em><strong>I’m tired of being fat but I can’t seem to break that association.  If I don’t have some sort of sweets I feel like a junkie — jonesing</strong></em>.”</p>
<p>She told me how she likes to eat when it’s quiet and she’s alone, typically in the evening after everyone in the family has gone to bed.  Ice cream, cookies, brownies….</p>
<p>She remembered how chaotic it was as a child, about 6 or 7 years old, being the oldest of 5 kids sitting at the lunch or dinner table.  Many times she would go out on the back patio to eat by herself where it was “<strong><em>calm and relaxe</em></strong>d.”</p>
<p>As she continued the story I could feel her energy tense…  I asked her what she was feeling in her body?  She responded that the “<em><strong>tension</strong></em>” was in her chest,  she could feel all this “<em><strong>noise &amp; confusion.”  </strong></em>Then she said,<strong></strong><em><strong> “</strong></em>I need a place to “<em><strong>breathe and relax.</strong></em>“  The emotional intensity level was “6 – 7.5.”  She then told me that as a little girl she always had to eat fast because she was supposed to be doing something.</p>
<p>(<strong>NOTE</strong>: <em>The intensity level is measured by “0″ being NO emotional charge and “10″ being a VERY HIGH, emotional charge such as a headache, tears, lump in your throat, tightness in your chest, nauseous tummy, tightness across neck and shoulders, etc.</em>)</p>
<p>As we tapped on feeling all the “<em><strong>noise &amp; confusion</strong></em>” the intensity started to go down and a memory popped up.  She was very close to her grandfather when she was young and she would get to go to her grandma and grandpa’s house to spend time, alone.    When her grandpa would come home, while waiting for dinner he would take her for a walk to the local store.  Grandma would always say every time while they were walking out the door, “<em><strong>don’t let her spoil her dinner</strong></em>.”  He would buy himself a cigar and her <strong>two boxes</strong> of Cracker Jacks.  One to eat then and one to take home and trick grandma with to eat after dinner.  <em><strong>She  associated LOVE with those boxes of Cracker Jacks.</strong></em></p>
<p>As we tapped further, she remembered that her favorite comfort food to eat with grandma was bologna sandwiches.  Things tasted so much better at grandma and grandpa’s house because it was calm and relaxed.   The feeling popped into her mind, “<em><strong>I can’t relax unless I’m eating junk</strong></em>.”  Or “<em><strong>knowing it’s somewhere nearby so I can have it when I get a moment to relax</strong></em>.”  3-4  Then she hit the jackpot with the memory, she was triggered.   “<em><strong>If I don’t have anything in the house…</strong></em>.”  Her intensity level skyrocketed up to a “10″!   EVERYWHERE in her body was tense.  “<em><strong>Gotta have sugar treats!!</strong></em>“   Then the CORE issue:  “<em><strong>I can’t feel loved unless I have sugar treats!!</strong></em>“</p>
<p>As we tapped the intensity level went down to a 5-6.   We continued to tap and she kept remembering moment’s in her childhood where she felt she <em><strong>“needed to eat junk in order to relax</strong></em>.”</p>
<p>She remembered being about 7 years old going to the pool with her girlfriend and buying candy at the snack bar and eating it on the way home while laughing and talking with her friend.  ** LOVE ** And now, when she goes to the movies with her family she HAS to have popcorn and candy!  ** LOVE **  We tapped that for less than 5 minutes and checked back with the feeling in her body, the EVERYWHERE in her body was tense feeling.   Now the “<strong><em>I can’t relax unless I’m eating junk.</em></strong>” was at a “1″ and the “<em><strong>I can’t feel loved unless I’m eating sugar treats</strong></em>” went to a  “1.5 – 2.”</p>
<p>We ended the session with her talking about her biggest Ah-Ha during the session.  She pictured herself with her grandparents in the evening in their living room.  Calm &amp; relaxed with them.  Totally calm and relaxed.</p>
<p>If your belief is that <em><strong>you can’t feel loved unless your eating sugar treats </strong></em> and it’s programmed into your subconscious mind, going over 100,000 mph and 400 BILLION bits per second 24 hours a day and night controlling 99% of your perception and behavior, do you think that this belief may be part of what’s sabotaging you from consciously not eating sugar treats?</p>
<p>This may or may not be the core issue, only time will actually tell.  However, EFT is able to take the “sting” and the power away from beliefs such as these so she’s able to make a conscious decision from an adults perspective instead of a fearful automatic reaction based on the perception of a little girl who learned to associate sweets with LOVE.</p>
<p>Do you have any self sabotaging behaviors that seem out of control?  There might be a perfectly logical reason… we just need to take the fear away and listen to your inner child.   Email me at <a href="gwen@yourstrongestlife.com">gwen@yourstrongestlife.com</a> to schedule your complimentary 30 minute session to see if this may be right for you.</p>
<p>Warmly,</p>
<p>Gwen</p>

<p align="center"><b>Friday, April 5, 2013, 2:00 – 4:00pm</b></p>
<p align="center"><b><br /> </b></p>
<p><b>What IS a money story?</b></p>
<p>A money story is a belief that we SUBCONSCIOUSLY created as young children based on what we experienced in our childhood homes and how our own parents or caregivers dealt with and felt about money.  We are all raised with emotional messages about money, some money stories are of wealth and abundance and some are of scarcity and lack.  Some are of work hard, struggle and heartache and others are of work smart, joy and generosity.  <em><strong>Those stories about money, created when we were children, are still alive and well, especially the negative ones, and running our adult lives in our businesses and our relationships from where they are deeply buried in our subconscious minds.</strong></em></p>
<p><b>How do you transform Your Money Story? </b></p>
<p>EFT Tapping is an amazing combination of ancient Chinese medicine and modern psychology that helps us to identify the core beliefs of those stories (<i>we call disruptions in our bodies energy system</i>) and clear them at a deep level allowing us to <b><i>literally transform our money stories and our bank account. </i></b>  As one of my favorite self-help author, motivational speaker and EFT fan, Wayne Dyer says, <i>“<b>When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change</b></i>.”</p>
<p>The following is a client’s story that show’s how powerful EFT Tapping actually is when dealing with less than positive programming about money:</p>
<p><b>Charlotte&#8217;s Money Story: </b></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px"><em>&#8220;Gwen and I worked together on some deep-seated issues about money.  She cleared them so completely that in our follow-up session, I didn&#8217;t even remember what I&#8217;d been worried about!  When Gwen read me what my responses on my initial questionnaire, I was dumbfounded.  &#8220;Did I really write that?&#8221; I asked her.  The problems were so thoroughly dealt with I couldn&#8217;t even relate to them any longer.  Gwen&#8217;s intuition and insight are truly amazing, and her work is life-changing.&#8221;</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px">~Charlotte Rains Dixon &#8211; OR</p>

<p><b>What is YOUR money story? </b></p>
<p><em><strong>Is your money story, like Charlotte’s was, SUBCONSCIOUSLY keeping you stuck from living Your Strongest Life</strong></em>?  Are you earning less than your potential in spite of all of your efforts  and hard work to do otherwise?  Or are you earning your potential but the money is surrounded by fear, limiting beliefs and negative emotions?   Either way, I invite you to get some emotional freedom.</p>

<p><span style="font-family: georgia,palatino">EFT Tapping is an amazing combination of ancient Chinese medicine and modern psychology that helps us to identify the core beliefs of those stories (<i>we call disruptions in our bodies energy system</i>) and clear them at a deep level allowing us to <b><i>literally transform our money stories and our bank account. </i></b>  As one of my favorite self-help author, motivational speaker and EFT fan, Wayne Dyer says, <i>“<b>When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change</b></i>.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,palatino">The following is a client’s story that show’s how powerful EFT Tapping actually is when dealing with less than positive programming about money:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,palatino"><b>Karen’s Money Story:  </b></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px"><em><span style="font-family: georgia,palatino">Before working with Gwen I couldn&#8217;t figure out where the root of my &#8220;money block&#8221; could lie. My memories of childhood consisted of growing up in an environment where money wasn&#8217;t an issue, or so I thought. Gwen helped me uncover that although my memories were of money being abundant, I also equated it with creating loneliness. These thoughts were based on my father taking a promotion (that gave him a raise) that caused us to move away from our family to a new area where I didn&#8217;t know anyone and felt like an outcast. <strong>In my little girl mind I believed money removed security and meant I would be forced into situations I wouldn&#8217;t want.</strong> Based on that, every time I would attempt to make more money, I would sabotage my efforts to avoid having change occur, which resulted in me constantly fighting against myself.</span></em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px"><span style="font-family: georgia,palatino"><em>After the very first session with Gwen I had significant mental (and physical) shifts that immediately changed my feelings about money and released the blocks. <strong>Working with her has been so effective that in just a couple of months</strong><b> I</b> <b>have increased my income by 67%!</b> Gwen is masterful in her tapping technique, getting to the root of the cause and removing those money blocks. I finally know what it means to really feel financially free.</em><b></b></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,palatino"><b><span style="font-size: 18px">What is <span style="text-decoration: underline">YOUR</span> money story?</span> </b></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia,palatino"><em><strong>Is your money story, like Karen’s, SUBCONSCIOUSLY keeping you stuck from living Your Strongest Life</strong></em>?   Are you earning less than your potential in spite of all of your efforts  and hard work to do otherwise?  Or are you earning your potential but the money is surrounded by fear, limiting beliefs and negative emotions?   Either way, I invite you to get some emotional freedom.</span></p>
