What lies hidden underneath anxiety?

In the late 1950s in Thailand, a monastery needed to be relocated for a new highway. Inside the temple was a 12 foot clay Buddha. A crane was brought in to move the giant Buddha, but it was so heavy it began to crack. The decision was made to bring in new equipment the following day. Rain began to fall, so the monks covered the statue with tarps. During the night, the head monk went to go check on the Buddha, shining his flashlight under the tarp to make sure it was dry. To his surprise, he saw a light gleaming back at him. The monk became curious to see what might lie under the clay and began to chip away at the clay. As he did, the light gleamed brighter and brighter. Many hours later, a solid gold Buddha underneath was exposed! This Buddha weighs over 2 1/2 tons and is valued at approximately $200 million!

Hidden under #anxiety

Historians believe that centuries before, the monks who owned the Buddha knew they were about to be attacked and covered the Buddha with clay to keep their enemies from finding it. All of the monks were killed in battle and the secret of the Golden Buddha lay quiet for many centuries.

What I love so much about this story is it is true!! AND that it is the perfect metaphor for us. I believe we all come into this world absolutely perfect — full of Love and Joy. For many different reasons, it’s as if more and more clay is slathered on, we feel more and more anxiety, until we forget who we are at our core – our own “inner Buddha”.

We have the opportunity to reduce our anxiety, uncover our inner gold, our inner beauty and power; we can gently uncover and re-discover our inner Buddha.

I know in my heart and from experience that GENTLE approaches work! I liken our work to that of an archaeologist finding a rare fossil in the desert – they don’t go in with a jackhammer! Rather, they take tiny brushes and smooth away the dirt over and over again, uncovering the beauty of the fossil little by little.

Now, some people may want to take the jackhammer approach, saying “Let’s just get this over with”, but if the monk had done that, it would have chipped and marred the Golden Buddha. My approach is much more gentle, because I want to help you to uncover and rediscover who you really are at your core.

I invite you to take a moment now and close your eyes. Begin to notice your breath without changing it in any way and simply imagine what might lie underneath your surface? If you could reconnect with that beautiful “Golden Buddha” you came into the world as: underneath anxiety, stress, worry and fear, is there room for more joy and laughter, happiness, richer relationships, more financial abundance? The first step is to simply imagine possibilities!

Then you can move on to doing the work. Some of the many techniques I find very useful are EFT/Tapping (Emotional Freedom Techniques), meditation, breath work, hypnosis, essential oils, yoga, a good night’s sleep, volunteering (yes, volunteering!), and more.

Henry Ford said many years ago, “Whether you think you can, or think you can’t, you’re right”.

Do you think you have an Inner Golden Buddha? Do you think you can gently uncover it and live your most amazing life? Are you ready to experience freedom from the past and embrace what’s possible? Click here for a free 15 minute consultation.

Blessings,

I was having a really rough summer, which led to numbing anxiety and plain fear. I woke up in the middle of the night, unable to go back to sleep because my heart was pounding and it was hard to breathe. I had a lot on my plate, fun things, but was incapable of starting anything, so I turned to Stephanie for help. After just ONE session, things changed dramatically, and since then I have launched my program and am sleeping at night again. And the best thing of all, I get to do all the fun stuff!

I had a serious car accident when I was 17 which landed me in the hospital and unable to walk or go to school for several months afterward. I had recurrent dreams and moments of reliving the crash for months. Fast forward 38 years, and I had another car accident a few weeks ago. I was shocked to find that same crash recurrence happening again, and creating a lot of anxiety when I drove. Knowing Stephanie's talents, I immediately contacted her and set up a session. What I loved is that she didn't go back and make me relive the crash again but knew that there might be a different cause for the PTSD. Sure enough, we discovered it and healed it. I can't tell you the difference since our session. Not once recurrence, and while I'm still a little nervous driving (which isn't a bad thing) I have the whole thing in perspective, and that out of the blue PTSD is gone! Thanks so much, Stephanie. Your gifts are amazing and appreciated!

If you are thinking that you don’t really need Stephanie . . . you’re wrong!!! I am here to tell you that you don’t even understand how much she can really help you. Success is exponential with Stephanie. I am now doing things in my business that I have wanted to do for years!! Thanks to Stephanie! The best way I can describe it in a “nutshell” is that she creates a safe space that allows you to release the old stuff that doesn’t serve you anymore. Then she helps you replace it with the things you want and the patterns and thoughts that help you get it. She has the expertise, experience, professionalism and drive to make her one of the best intuitive life coaches I have ever had! She has so many tools to use to help you succeed – from the unconscious to “nuts and bolts” – you’ll get it all. Then she has the methods to motivate and keep you on task. Most importantly for me is that she is intuitive so she can really tap into to what I personally need and want. She is worth the investment! I highly recommend her!!

Working with Stephanie has been life changing. She has helped me to release blockages that I didn’t even realize were holding me back from achieving the business success that I truly desire. After working with Stephanie for less than two months, the magic started to happen in my business. “Out of the blue” two ideal clients called me and I booked $20,000 worth of new business just like that! I have moved from anxiety and struggle to ease and faith. Thank you a million times over Stephanie. Your patience, guidance and unique talent have had a huge impact on my life and business.

I started to work with Stephanie when I thought I could not fit one more thing into my life. I am so happy to admit that I was wrong and I am so grateful that I got to work with a passionate, compassionate and enthusiastic woman such as Stephanie. I have started a new biz about bringing more peace and love into the world, I work as an artist and writer and you would think I had time for self-care. I kept forgetting me every day. Stephanie helped me to reintroduce myself to myself and find the time to just be and breathe and know that the answers do show up. Now I don't start the day with the world issues crashing down on me. I take the time to meditate, breathe, ask questions and give myself the most positive pep talks I can give myself. Working with Stephanie was like working with a dear friend who has all the answers, but her humanity and kindness really resonated with me. I can't thank Stephanie enough for her willingness to help me see my gifts and that I will not just walk thru my life; I will run thru it with my dreams intact and a really good pair of sneakers!
