I’m not sure how you’re feeling about September, but I’m feeling like a deer in the headlights.\u00a0 What happened to Summer?

How would you like an all-expense-paid vacation instead? For a minute, pretend that right now you\u2019ve been granted an immediate, all-expense-paid, skip-September-yuck, two-week vacation to the destination of your choice. It\u2019s boss-approved, there are no conflicts, kids are taken care of, and someone is going to do all your work while you\u2019re away.<\/p>

Take a deep breath and imagine it. How does that feel? Whew. Can you feel your body relax as the pressure comes off?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

This little mind-trick shows us how powerful our minds really are (Sorry, I don’t have the kind of power to get you that vacation just yet.). Nothing changed, except our minds. The mere thought of a vacation had the power to lower the stress in our bodies.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Could this mean, for example, that September isn't icky and situations like public speaking aren't actually scary? We just think they are?<\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Could our thoughts<\/strong> be making us afraid of public speaking, not the actual public speaking? Could our scary thoughts about standing up for ourselves or going after that dream job be holding us back? Could September actually be one of the great months?\u00a0<\/p>

I\u2019ve been practicing thought-work for awhile, and it’s a little magical. While I haven\u2019t started taming lions or anything, my fears and anxieties aren\u2019t constantly in the driver\u2019s seat anymore. The more I question my thoughts, the more free I feel.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The problem is that our thoughts are like an iceberg \u2013 most of them are lurking below the surface, so much a part of us that we don\u2019t even know we\u2019re thinking them. They keep us stuck and we don’t even know they’re doing it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

In our coaching, we use tools like Byron Katie\u2019s \u201cThe Work\u201d<\/b> and Acceptance Commitment Training (ACT) <\/b>to help our clients (and ourselves) find those sneaky, hidden thoughts that create stress.<\/p>

Once we find our thoughts and play with them a bit, we come to realize that a lot of our thoughts are, well, a little silly. These tools help us rewire our brains. That\u2019s the real ninja mind-trick.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Sometimes we really want something, but we do nothing to get it. We conclude that we\u2019re lazy, or big procrastinators, or unambitious, or that we don\u2019t know how. We think there’s something wrong with us.<\/p>

The solution to that mystery lies in those hidden thoughts. Your mind wants to keep you safe, but it\u2019s idea of keeping you safe is that you don\u2019t move. Ever. It thinks you should do nothing. So you get stuck.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
