Stressed? Looking for Greater Joy in Your Life?

March 11, 2009
March 11, 2009
I first learned about the Solution Method about 4 years ago from a colleague of mine. I was fresh into my practice and yet still struggling with how to best help others when my own relationship with food and stress was a struggle. I noticed I still had a tendency to stress eat, despite all the knowledge I had gained over the years. I look back now and think, “Of course I was! A college education does not negate the emotional response to food!” I was seeing this mirrored in clients as well, who despite my efforts in nutrition education were missing a radical piece of self-care that is key to changing one’s relationship with overeating.

I began the work in a final attempt to come to peace with food and to learn a new way of coping with life so that I did not turn to bowls of popcorn and tortilla chips, chastise myself for it, and repeat the habit the next time I was overwhelmed. What I gained from devoting myself to learning it over the following two years was profound.

  • I became more in touch with what I was feeling and more clear in expressing myself.
  • I was able to see the pattern and break it before I engaged in it. When I did engage in it, I recovered more quickly and compassionately than I ever had been capable of before.
  • My ability to work within the stresses of day-to-day life skyrocketed-now there is very little panicking, getting frustrated, or feeling trapped! 
  • I witnessed others doing the work with me also experience greater calm and joy in their lives as they became well-versed in their internal world and learned to choose different responses.

The numerous small and large ways in which it has affected me cannot be measured. My heart is lighter, I can laugh at myself more, and I have come to peace with how much of life has unfolded.  Last year I began training to become a provider for this Method myself, so that I can share these skills with others who are looking for less stress and greater joy in their lives.
With so much seemingly out of control these days, having an internal safe haven is paramount to getting through the rough patches with our hair and wits intact!

I encourage you to learn a bit more about the Method, and look for more information on telegroups and individual coaching from VIBRANCE to appear in the next few weeks. Wired for Joy, the 6 week introductory course to the Solution Method, will begin in early May.
If you are interested in registering for Wired for Joy or wish to begin individual coaching now, please contact me at aimee@vibrance.dev or by calling 206-227-1231

I also highly recommend the book The Pathway, by Laurel Mellin – developer of the Solution Method.

A Vibrant Life

I've studied nutrition and fitness from a variety of experts for over 20 years. In this time I've come to understand that no diet, nor exercise plan, is right for every body. Your body has a unique set of needs, and by listening and exploring, you and I can learn the language of your body and begin giving it what it needs, so that greater energy, vibrancy, health and happiness can be yours!

A healthy body is a platform for an abundant, vibrant life. It's all yours for the taking. Are you ready for it?
