The Wonders of Energy Medicine: Period Pain

Ok, so period pain probably isn’t a topic you hear a lot about but when you suffer like I do, it’s difficult to keep your pain to yourself.  For as long as I can remember periods for me have always been rubbish.  No sooner do I come off my period and 10 days later I’m already feeling PMT symptoms, in particular very sore swollen breasts.  Add to this, irritability, a short fuse, very painful stomach cramps, lack of energy, a headache and the compulsion to eat everything that’s bad for you, you could say that this time of the month is nothing short of crap.

I’ve been off the pill for about 5 years now, I was 31 when I made a conscious choice to stop filling myself with unnatural medication.  I was also at an age where being pregnant wouldn’t have been frowned upon and my biological clock certainly had a louder tick.  Although the pill really helped to reduce symptoms and pain, once making the decision to come off it, I didn’t look back.

I’ve noticed symptoms reduce dramatically when I’ve made a concerted effort to cut out sugar, wheat and alcohol.  These times don’t normally last long before I sabotage my efforts and fall back into my old ways.  Not even horrendous stomach cramps give me a good nudge to stop eating what my body clearly doesn’t like.  But hey that’s another story and one which will be shared another time.

Yesterday was A- day, yep Agony day and the cramps were their usual cheery self.  I normally put up with the devilish pain because taking tablets really is my last resort and as an energy medicine practitioner, I have the greatest tools to help alleviate pain.  The problem is, releasing period pain using the techniques I know so well has never been on my to do list.  So when the pain became unbearable yesterday, I reached for the panadol for a quick fix.

The tablets did the trick and I felt ok until I got into bed.  The stomach cramps had started to creep back in and my head told me to get some more tablets and a glass of water.  This time my heart kicked in and said ‘Natasha you know you don’t like taking tablets. Instead have a little think about why you have this period pain every month’.  Now that was enough to get me going as it was the first time I had considered ‘looking’ for a root cause, instead of believing such terrible pain was natural.

I was lay on my side, quite relaxed and started to think back to when my periods started to be so painful.  It hit me quite quickly, like a ton of bricks in fact, the core issue was right there staring me in the face, wow.  How good am I to go to such extremes lengths on a subconscious level, I was shocked but hey I understand this stuff enough to know that our subconscious protects us and whatever we have created is normally for our greater good at the time, even if it doesn’t serve us in the present.

As soon as I recognised the core issue, I started to tap on the karate chop point and within seconds the period pain started to ease off.  I must admit I couldn’t believe how quickly it shifted.  I continued to tap and tell my body it was ok to release the pain now, it had done a perfect job for me by holding on to it for all these years.  I thanked my body for doing what I wanted it to and gave it permission to go back to it’s natural state.  I also thanked my subconscious for looking after me so well and told it a new story.

I did a few more rounds, solidifying my new affirmations and started to feel a little lighter.  Consciously, I knew it all made sense and it seemed I’d discovered the root of my period pain.  I fell sound a sleep and was delighted to wake up this morning pain free and went for my morning walk marvelling at how we really can heal our bodies instantaneously.

There may still be some healing work to do, so let’s see how the next few days go and the months to come.  I’ll then share the core issue I uncovered as it may be beneficial to help other women who also suffer with awful periods!

I’d love to hear your comments!

Keep Trying Harder

Only 3 short years ago, I was in a job that was making me increasingly miserable.  It didn’t matter how many extra hours I worked or how many times I did what my Manager said, it still wasn’t good enough.

So what did I do?  Give up? No of course not, I tried even harder.  The problem was trying harder only gave me tiny rewards that were never in line with my expectations.  When I finally gave up my job, I realised the job I had been holding onto for all these years was never mine in the first place.  It was a job I had fallen into and one which I hated.  I’m sure some of you will know exactly what I’m talking about.

One of my first Mentors, Rebecca Hanson, used to say  ‘Natasha, if it ain’t fun, it don’t get done!’ and you know, she is so right.  Just a few weeks ago, I heard these little words in my head and my ears stood to attention.  I took a look at my business and wiped out all the stuff that ain’t fun.

In doing so, I’ve managed to give myself more space, time and energy to focus on what’s important and already the results are remarkable.  Money seems to be seeping in from all directions, opportunities are being offered in abundance and I’m doing more of what makes my hearts sing.  And whilst this is going on, one thing I’m not doing is trying harder.

I’m reading a short book called ‘yousquared’ by Price Pritchett, thank you Lisa Sasevich for gracing me with this book!  And his message is so inline with today’s post that I had to share it with you.  He says “Sooner or later you’re going to reach the point where you can’t try any harder.  It may be that your spirit flags, or that your physical and mental resources are stretched to the limit.  And often, well before you come to that set of circumstances, you reach the point of diminishing return – trying harder and harder starts producing less and less.  Sometimes, in fact, intensifying your efforts produces nothing except bigger problems”

He then goes on to say “If you want to make a quantum leap, quit thinking about trying harder.  More effort isn’t the answer”.

So here’s the message, you can keep doing the same thing and you can keep on trying harder but I can guarantee it ain’t gonna be fun and it ain’t gonna give you the results you want.

Take a look at all parts of your life, where are you trying harder for little or no results?  What can you give up today that will give you more space, time and energy?

Think about and make yours a great week!

Love,

Natasha

Is this going to be the Greatest Day of your Life?

I was out for an early morning walk listening to a Tony Robbins audio and felt like cranking it up with a juicy tune instead.  Within seconds my arms were up in the air, I was singing out loud and tears of joy started to trickle down my face.  Luckily no-one was around because it was so early, but hey even if they were, I probably wouldn’t have cared because right in that very moment everything was perfect.

I’m so excited to share the song with you, I hope you can feel my energy when you listen to it. Imagine me walking through my neighbourhood, arms up in the air and let yours go up too – ok, so maybe I did look a little crazy he he, feel free to do this indoors

As you move to the music, feel, sense and know that today really could be the Greatest Day of your life, if you choose it.

The song got me thinking about you my loyal circle, my clients, my friends, my family and the people I don’t know and may never know.  It got me thinking how I just want to help as many people as I can, lead exciting, fulfilling and meaningful lives.  The song made me connect even more with how I really want to help you have the Greatest Day of your Life, every day for the rest of your life.

So if you’re game, I’m going to do something very special for you.  If you tell me what your struggling with right now and share with me, the kinds of things that you want to bring into your life, you know, if you had 3 wishes, what would they be type of thing.  I’ll put an audio together giving you some direction on how you can get closer to the highest vision you have for yourself.

All you have to do is send your email to info@natashaabudarham.com by Saturday 7 August and within the week, I’ll send you a complimentary audio sharing my tips on how you can get unstuck and start moving swiftly forward.  Is that a good deal?

By the way, you’ll still get the audio even if you don’t share your struggles.  However, you’ve got to be in it to win it, so come on, get writing, I’m here for you!

Oh and if you send this to your friends, I’ll give them some tips too!

AND…..

The first 3 people to hit the send button will get a FREE 20 minutes one on one guidance from mevia skype or phone!  Oh my gosh these early morning walks fill me with sweet stuff!

Start as you mean to go on hey!

Your comments are welcome!

Love as always,

Natasha

P.S. Hold your head up high and open your arms wide, there’s so many opportunities out there waiting for you, don’t let your time run by without getting what you deserve

Sowing your Seeds of Passion

I’ve just got back from spending a few hours with one of my most inspiring friends.  As I drove home, my head was filled with the joys of summer and I began to think how awesome my life and work is.  I was filling myself with gratitude, reminding myself how lucky I am to share my passion in such an awesome way.  Not only do I wake up excited everyday, I get to do what I want, when I want.

Then I started to think about how some people would love to wake up filled with passion.  Three short years ago, I was one of those people.  I had no idea how to go from feeling passionless to passionfilled, even though it was one of my greatest desires.

As my mind continued to meander down this path, a droplet of inspiration caught my attention and would not budge.  What if I could help people ‘Sow their Seeds of Passion’ right now.  What if I put on a workshop next week for those who are ripe and ready to take their next step.  What if I offered my time for a minimal fee, would people be interested?  The little voice inside my head said ‘YES, YES, YES!”

So here it is:

On Wednesday 11 August, from 18.30hrs, I will be giving a 3 hour workshop called ‘Sowing Your Seeds Of Passion’ in Watermael-Boitsfort, Brussels, Belgium.

I’ll go through

- The step by step process that took me from being miserable in my job to setting up shop on my own with NO business experience

- How I went from fear, worry and doubt to faith, trust and belief

And

- How you can ‘Sow your Seeds of Passion’ so you can do exactly as I did and start living with Passion, Purpose and Prosperity

If you are Ripe and Ready, all you’ve got to do is email info@natashaabudarham.com with ‘Yes to Passion’ in the subject header and I will confirm how to pay your attendance fee of €20.

There is only room for 8 people, so you’ll need to be quick.

I look forward to seeing you in a week’s time!

Love,

Natasha

P.S. I was so excited that I missed my turning and ended up driving 10km in the wrong direction LOL!

Where’s all the worth gone?

Last week I was sorting through an old folder and found a list of goals that I’d written when I was living in Argentina in 2006.  I’d replied to an ad on an Expat website, that said something like this:

• Are you tired and lacking energy?
• Would you like to be happier and enjoy life more?
• Are there things you are missing out on?
• Is it time for change?

I ticked all the boxes and oh yes, I was definitely ready for change, so I immediately signed on the dotted line!  A few days later a lovely American Woman came to our apartment and Chris and I started some Coaching sessions.

The first thing she got us to do was to write out our 1 month, 3 month and 6 month goals, 9 in total, 3 items in each area.  When I found the paper, I reminisced the 5 months we’d been in Buenos Aires.  We’d had a great time, met loads of people, ate amazing food, drank delicious beer and wine but could have enjoyed it more if we hadn’t been tied to our jobs.

At the time, I was in desperate mode and just about had my head above water.  As usual I was trying harder and harder and wouldn’t give up.  Whilst this trait has served me in many ways, it’s also been a detriment and kept me doing things for far longer than I should have, with little or no reward.

The fact is, you can keep doing the same thing over and over with little or no reward but it ain’t gonna change much.  These are the things you want to drop like a hot potato and try something different, even if you have no idea if the change will actually change anything!

So when I read through my 9 goals, I wasn’t let’s say jumping with joy.  When Chris came home, I showed him the paper and with a big smile he said ‘ you’ve done well, look at how much you’ve achieved’.  I sighed and said ‘are you taking the p*@*s’.  He said ‘no, you have done well, are you taking the p*@*?’.  I proceeded to go through each goal and explained why I’d failed so miserably.

I then caught myself.  I was in one of my recurring themes, running it like a well known film.  I’d become blindsided, focusing on what I hadn’t achieved.  Everyone has non-serving recurring themes, you can pin point yours by becoming aware of your inner self talk and mistakes that you seem to make over and over.

Once it was in my awareness, I was able to open my eyes and mind and read the goals in a different context and yes I had achieved them, 100%.  Why is this story relevant and why am I sharing it with you?  The point is that if I’m falling into this behaviour, then it’s likely that you are too.

Take a look at where you are devaluing yourself unnecessarily and do what you’ve got to, to raise that self worth through the roof.  We’ve been trained long enough to put everything but ourselves first and I’m asking you to stop doing that.  Put yourself first, open your eyes to your worth and if you know that there is more out there waiting for you, then don’t let anything get in the way.  Because your ego will find every excuse to keep you small and so will other people.

People who are stuck in their own low self worth stuff, people who stopped dreaming long ago and people who would begrudge you having what you want.  Don’t get me wrong they don’t do it to hurt you, in fact quite the opposite, they think they’re helping you but in fact they’re just consulting their own writings on their walls, which is telling them they can’t have what they want.

And the people closest to you, the ones who love you can also sabotage your success.  It doesn’t matter how much they love you, how hard you try to explain to them or how much they get you, they can’t possibly share the same feelings as you because they aren’t you.  They aren’t inside your body, feeling what you’re feeling, seeing what you’re seeing, thinking what you’re thinking or hearing what you hear.

If you have that deep knowing that you are here for something more than you are sharing right now, then you must start listening to that voice of wisdom.  The inner you, the perfect you, the all knowing you, is on your side and will help you get to where you’re supposed to be.

You can have what you want and do you know how I know, because I have what I want and if I can have it then so can you.

Put yourself first, own up to what’s keeping you small and do what you’ve got to do to make it happen.  When you’re happy and fulfilled, everyone around you benefits so much more than when you deny yourself your truth.

Love,

Natasha

Ready to Make Big Waves instead of Small Splashes?

I know if you’re reading this, you’re what I call a Passioneer.  A Passioneer is someone who knows they are here to make Big Waves in the world and are fed up of only making small splashes.

Passioneers have a fire in their belly and know they are here to do something special.  And believe it or not Passioneers have Passion, but don’t always know how to uncover it, channel it and make the Big Waves they’re capable of.

Most Passioneers are supposed to be running their own successful businesses because making Big Waves isn’t about being tied down to achieving other peoples dreams for them, it’s about achieving their own dreams and then inspiring others to do the same.

If this is you and you want to learn how I’ve made Big Waves in my life, my families life, in my clients lives and how I contribute to raising the consciousness of our beautiful planet – then it’s time you spent a VSP day with me.

A Very Special Person day is your chance to Supercharge your FLOW and get on the Pathway to achieving more Fulfilment, Love, Opportunity and Wealth.  And the good news is that I’m taking applications to join me for a day in Brussels, London, San Diego or Virtually.

Last year I invested in myself heavily and spent money I didn’t have, the rewards were seconds to none.  This year I did exactly the same and if you’ve been following my emails, you’ll know that my life and business have sky rocketed beyond my expectations.  This is exactly what happens when you ‘Step Up’ and make yourself and your future worth it.

If you think it’s time to invest in your future then it’s time to apply for your VSP day.  All you have to do is email info@natashaabudarham.com with VSP day and the country you want to meet me in and I will send you an application form and the dates available.

Please note, I made a big boo boo in my agenda, so if you are in Brussels or can attend Virtually, I have 8, 9 and 10 July available at a 50% discount.  You gotta be quick because these are going to fly off the shelf!

I’m excited to be assisting, guiding and supporting the Passioneers who know they’re supposed to be making Big Waves with me!

Love,

Natasha

P.S. Read how others have made Big Waves in their lives

The Walk Out

I remember July 2008 very clearly, I was crying my eyes out after having another ear bashing from my boss.  Clearly I couldn’t carry on like this, I was miserable and of course it was all down to the job I hated and the boss who didn’t seem to let up.  I’d been thinking about quitting for months but didn’t have the courage to let go of the only income I had and with very little money in the bank, I couldn’t afford to just walk out without having another job to go to.  The problem was that the job had been slowly killing me for the last 12 months and the more miserable I became, the more desperately I searched for a way out.

That night I went to bed and something seemed to shift in me because I woke up the next morning a changed Woman.  I knew exactly what I needed to do and nothing was going to stop me from doing it.

Within the week, I had cut off my hair, cleared out my wardrobe, let go of draining friends and with a brand new outlook on life, I walked into work and handed in my resignation.  The relief I felt when I walked out the door was amazing. It wasn’t just a job I was walking out on, finally I had set myself free from the shackles that had held me captive for far too long.

I’d love to say that my ‘walk out’ happened out of the blue, but it didn’t.  It was the previous 7 months of diving into the inner me and clearing away all the cobwebs that kept me stuck.  Today I still do exactly the same, if something isn’t serving my highest good, then I simply walk out of that state and step into the shoes that belong to me.  It’s not always easy which is why I choose to have people help me along the way and just as importantly I choose to be my own best friend.

Sending my love to those of you who have also been set free and courage to those who are nearly there.

Love,
Natasha

Free Teleclass: 7 Steps to Creating and Maintaining Relationships that Rock!

I’ve been in Spain for the last week to watch my Sister and her long term partner finally get hitched!  It’s been a wonderful few days sharing it with the rest of my family and of course, taking some time out is always a good thing!

I’ve just come back to my room after a lazy day by the pool and suddenly thought I should let you know about a teleclass that I’m giving on Monday 28 June at 5pm in UK, 6pm CET, 12pm Eastern.

I am going to be speaking with Rachel Moheban, Founder of The Relationship Suite. Rachel contacted me a few months ago asking if I would share, my insights into creating and maintaining great relationships with her community. I jumped at the chance, especially since this is an area I have had particularly great success in.

Creating and maintaining great relationships is a vital component to achieving ultimate happiness. We have so many different types of relationships, it makes sense to know how to get them right.

In this 1 hour class, I’m going to be sharing with you my ‘7 Steps to Creating and Maintaining Relationships that Rock’. This is a formula that can be used for all types of relationships, whether it be romantic, family, friends, colleagues, relationships with clients and even that most important relationship with yourself!

This class is taken over the telephone, so you will have to dial in to a number in USA. All details will be sent to you by email once you’ve registered.

What gives you pleasure?

I lay in bed a couple of days ago and gave myself a lie in treat and decided to listen to a radio show through my iphone.  The topic was all about ‘what gives you pleasure’.  As I lay there thinking I knew the answer, it became evidently clear that I needed to go deeper into this subject.

Since becoming a Life Change Specialist, I have put my heart and soul into helping people transform their ordinary lives into lives they love.  In return, I get great pleasure from watching my clients step into their unique shoes by discovering their real self.  The self that loves their life. 

Loving your job and gaining pleasure from it, is only one aspect of living, there has to be pleasure in other areas too.  And as a solopreneur, you can often get caught up in the running of your business (and everything else that comes with it) and before you realise it, you’ve forgotten what it was like to explore new ways of bringing pleasure into your life.

For the rest of the day, I made it my mission to speak to myself (and yes I did it out loud), asking over and over “what gives me pleasure”.  It was amazing how I started to discover myself all over again and realise that unintentionally, I had let some of the fun slip from my life.

Immediately, I began to do some fun stuff for me.  Singing in the shower, making myself laugh, wearing my best clothes, I even took 2 hours off work to visit a tea shop I had never been to.  By the time I got home, I was so uplifted and even more connected to myself that I made a promise to bring more pleasure into my life.

In that moment, a light bulb went on and I thought, if I have done this, then I know for sure that others will have too.  So my question for you to ponder today, is simply, “what gives you pleasure”.
