If you have a fear of change, how are you going to make changes in your life?  If you have fear of stepping outside of your comfort zone--the place where you learned to feel comfortable feeling uncomfortable--how are you going to make progress in your life?  

Selective hearing starts when trauma is triggered during a session.  The client can not hear what the Practitioner is saying and they can not feel their emotions fully.  These are common hurdles for many clients.  People feel safe by suppressing and dissociating from their feelings.  When you start a session always be realistic about the time frame and what the client wants to achieve.  

Resistance to change and lack of cooperation is often an issue when working with clients.  Many clients have a "no one can fix me" attitude.  Ask the client what benefit is of believing no one can fix them.  Gentle boundaries as many feel that if they change what would their lives  look like? Who am I when all the trauma is gone?  You are a unique soul that needs unconditional love as you are worthy of love.   

Clients often become manipulative when the Practitioner is too close to a sensitive issue, and they may become aggressive.  The analytical client feels much safer in their head and feel safe when they can understand their emotional process.  Many people get stuck in their story and it keeps spinning out of control.  Are you ready to let go of your story and allow yourself to feel love, peace, and happiness.

The Dramatic Client may revert to a state of mind that served them well through life which they learned when they were children.  Deep down they feel invisible, lonely, and rejected, and they need to be heard and listened to.  The Blaming Client avoids dealing with their issues and problems often deflecting to blame others for how they feel and the circumstances they have put themselves into.

All Practitioners have their own personal issues that they are working through on a day-to-day basis.  It's a process in life that is taking place at this very moment.  Having their own experiences while helping clients experience their journeys.  As a Practitioner, we are still human and we place a great deal of pressure upon ourselves to not make a mistake and disappoint a client.  Clients may also place a Practitioner on a pedestal, which can place stress upon the Practitioner.  Be yourself as you are enough.

We all see the world differently and each have a different threshold and trigger points.  All practitioners have their own personal issues that they are working through on a day-to-day basis.  It's a process in life that is taking place at this very moment  They have their own experiences while helping clients experience their journeys.  As a practitioner always remember, you are still human and we all need rest.  Take care of yourself before you start with a client so your energies do not mix with your clients.  Follow us on this discussion as we go through this the next few weeks.  Thank YOU!!

Be aware of getting emotionally involved with other's personal lives.  When you reach out to someone in need, it's important that you are clear whether there is something within you that needs to be well first.  Make sure you can live up to the support you offered as this creates a safety net and we do not want this to break.  Remind people how very important they are.  They forget easily...have you forgotten how important you are?

Whether working on self or another, it is important to become your own source of support. It is healthy to have people that you can reach out to when we need support, however, building your self-esteem and trust of self is a strong relationship with yourself.  We can self-sabotage ourselves by thinking negative thoughts and the gains we get from those frequencies.  What if you are working with friends or relatives?  Do they really want help or do they just need to talk and you listen?  Many times we listen and give advice and they do not want to hear it.  Allow them to speak and you hold them up during this difficult time with peace, love, and listening ears.

I find with clients that sometimes people just feel comfortable feeling uncomfortable.  The fear of losing something they really did not have an attachment to was held place by trauma.  People may sabotage any goals due to the fear of success.  They feel they deserve to keep suffering the trauma.  Our self-worth is within you and when you release the past and see the future unfold; your life will change.  Are you ready to release the pain of the past?
