Empowerment – Permission and Choice by Elaine Lockard

Empowerment!!!

It! is! a! word! we! now! hear!every!day!in!our!lives.!

However,! what! does! it!mean?!

A! couple! of! its! definitions!are!"to!enable"!or!"permit".!

!In! terms! of! Personal!Empowerment,! it! means! to!start! giving! one's! selfApermission!to!move!forward!toward! a! positive! goal! or!outcome.!

But! what! if! you! feel! you!can't!make!this!choice?!!

What! if! your! circumstances!feel! too! limiting,! too!controlling,! and! too!immense! that! you! fear!making! any! choice! or! just!

don't! know! what! you! want!for! yourself?! Well,! that’s!okay.! We! all! have! to! begin!somewhere.! The! important!point!here!is:!!

“You! are! choosing! to! give!yourself!permission!to!make!that!first!step.”!

Know!any!choice,!be!it!small!or! a! large! and! as! long! as! it!moves! you! forward,! is!Empowerment.! It# is# making#the# choice# that# counts!! It!shows! you! do! have! the!courage! and! knowledge! to!strive! for! something! better!or!more! correct! or!more! in!alignment!with!yourself.!

No! matter! how! small! or!large,! making! the! choice,!giving! yourself! permission!

to!make! that! choice! and!act!on! it,! without! hurting!yourself!or!others,!gives!you!power! and! control! in! your!life.! From! this,! you! start!gaining! more! confidence,!which! helps! to! dispel! selfAdoubt! and! instills!more! self!trust! and! self! respect.! You!begin! to! heal! on! the! inside!and! then! manifest! that!healing!in!your!outer!life.!

So! how!do! you! choose! your!first!step?!!

Listen! to! what! your! heart!tells! you.! If! it! makes! you!happy,! if! it! makes! you! feel!more! confident,! more! in!control,! then! this! may! be!where! You! find! your! first!step.!

Some! examples! of! a! small,!first!step!may!be:!

• Looking! in! the! mirror!every! day! and! putting! a!smile!on!your!face!

• Getting! out! of! the! house!for!a!few!minutes!daily!

• Doing! something! that!makes! you! laugh! which!you!usually!don’t!do!

• Choosing!to!eat!a!piece!of!fruit! rather! than! a!dessert!!!

If!you!are!unsure,!then!being!more! clear! on! who! you! are!and!what! you!want!may! be!the!first!step.!For!me,!when!I!received!a!

Lightarian™! Empowerment!Ray! Attunement,! it! opened!up!my!heart,!mind!and! soul!to! understanding! myself!more! fully! and! what! I!wanted!from!my!life.!!

It#was#one#of#the#most#dynamic,#powerful#

experiences#I#have#ever#had!!

This! first! step,! for! me,!awakened! me! to! all! I! was!and! could! be! and! allowed!me! to! choose! to! move!forward! to! clear! out! my!

Because! these! Lightarian™!Ray! Attunements! changed!my! life! profoundly,! I! now!offer! them! as! part! of! my!healing!service!to!you!!!!

Mantra Of The Soul by Jamie McConochie

To   see   true   and   lasting  healing   take   place   in  another  human  is  one  of  the  most  beautiful  and  inspiring  things   to   witness   in   all   of  nature.      

The   eternal   spark   of  consciousness   that   dwells  within   each   and   every  human   being   is   the   power  battery   that   sustains   us  throughout   the   course   of  our  life.      

Whether   or   not   you   are  aware   of   its   presence   you  are   fed   and   sustained   by   it  at  every   level  of  your  being,  physically,   emotionally,  mentally,  and  spiritually.  

It   is   with   us   in   every  moment   of   our   life,   quietly  whirring   away   like   a  dynamo   generating   power  for  us.      

Patiently   it  hums  away  on  a  minimal   output,   providing  us   with   just   enough   energy  to  survive.      

Unfortunately   many   of   us  are  unaware  of  its  existence  and  mistakenly   believe   that  we   should   be   trying   to  obtain   our   power   from  external   things   around   us,  or  by  draining  the  energy  of  other  people  in  our  lives.      

We   are   oblivious   to   the  massive   power   source   we  are   sitting   on   top   of,   and  instead  go  about  our  lives  in  a   disharmonious   fashion,  out   of   balance,   and   out   of  touch   with   the   furnace   of  energy   resonating   at   the  heart  of  our  being.      

It   is   this   imbalance,   this   in-­‐congruence  of  vibration  that  sadly   gives   rise   to   so   many  of   our   ailments,   both  physical  and  emotional.      

I’m   not   talking   about   the  healing   of   a   fractured   bone,  or   of   wounded   pride,   or  even   the   healing   of   a  malignant  tumor.    

The  kind  of  healing  to  which  I’m  referring  is  the  profound  realization  of  one’s   intimate  connection   with   the   source  all  life.      

Page 12: March2013 hum

Instead# of# trying# to#understand# this# resonance#of# inner# vibrations,# we#oftentimes# attempt# to#alleviate# the# external#symptoms# of# our# suffering#through# temporary# and#superficial# measures.# # But#until# we# recognize# and#acknowledge# that# muffled#sound# that# is# our# inner#strength,# we# will# always#continue# to# struggle# with#suffering# and#discontentment.#

!Becoming the Perfect Healer: by Sarah Lambert, Mind/Body Intuitive

Perhaps! the! greatest!

journey! for! healers! is! to!

reconcile!our! flawed!human!

nature! with! our! ability! to!

help!others.!!

I! say! this! from!my!personal!

experience! as! an! intuitive!

who!for!much!of!my!life!has!

had! two! stories! reflected!

back! to! me:! “you’re!

amazing/gifted/talented/no!

one! can! do! what! you! do”,!

and! “you’re! a! freak,! go!

away.”!

When! I! started! my! work,! I!

had! an! all! or! nothing!

mentality! in! place,! based! in!

reaction! to! these! two!

messages.!!

Either! I! was! brilliant! and!

everything!I!did!was!perfect,!

or! I! was! horrible! and! had!

nothing! to! offer! anyone.!

Every! session! with! a! client!

was! a! set! up! to! see! which!

story! was! true,! and! any!

reaction! that! was! less! than!

stellar!would! spiral!me! into!

concern! that! I! really!had!no!

business! trying! to! help!

anyone.!

That! some! people! could!

benefit! from!and!appreciate!

what! I! did,! while! others!

were! better! served!

elsewhere,! was! a! nuanced!

truth! I! had! trouble!

understanding! in! the!

beginning.!!

It’s!something!I!believe!a!lot!

of! healers! –! especially!

psychics,! or! people! who’ve!

otherwise! experienced! gifts!

that! aren’t! understood! by!

mainstream! culture! –!

struggle!with:!!

“I’m! doing! something!

incredible! no! one! else! can!

do.!

!Why!don’t!people!love!me?”!

I! based! the! value! of! my!

work! on! the! reactions! of!

others,! because! it! was! too!

scary!to!look!within!and!feel!

it!for!myself.!!

I! knew! flaws,! all! my! hangH

ups! and! myself! too! well.! I!

knew! that! kids!made! fun! of!

me! in! school,! that! I! had!

trouble! dating,! struggled!

with! money,! and! felt!

awkward! in! social!

situations.!!

I! knew! everything! that! was!

wrong!with!me,!and!couldn’t!

Page 15: March2013 hum

!

!

!

believe! that! person!was! the!

same! one! who! received!

feedback! about! saving!

someone’s! life,! or!

dramatically! changing! it! for!

the!better.!

In! order! to! believe! the!

positive! feedback,! I! had! to!

somehow! make! myself!

better! than! human! in! my!

mind.!!

I!denied!the!ways!in!which!I!

struggled,! because! I! needed!

to!be!perfect! for!my! clients.!

It! took! some! time,! but!

eventually! I! had! a! very!

useful!epiphany:!

I!realized!it’s!okay!to!not!be!

okay.!!

!

The! feeling! of! being! lost,!

confused,! kind! of! goofy,!

faking!your!way!through,!or!

otherwise! not! knowing!

what! you’re! doing,! is! a!

perfectly!valid!place!to!be.!!

If!it’s!where!you!are,!then!let!

yourself! be! there.! When!

being! where! you! are! and!

knowing! how! you! feel! is!

okay,! then! nothing! about!

you! negates! the! positive!

responses!to!your!work.!

When!as!healers!we!are!able!

to! accept! ourselves! as!

people,! we! become! more!

perfect! conduits! of! the!

divine.!!

You! become! more!

trustworthy! to! your! clients,!

as!a!real!person!who!knows!

what! it’s! like! to! go! through!

hard! things,! rather! than!

some! sort! of! removed!

messenger!of!the!divine.!!

My! suggestion! is! to! get! real!

with! yourself! about! where!

you!are,!what!you!need,!and!

let!those!needs!be!met.!!

Lead! your! clients! by!

example;! it’s! much! more!

effective! than! intuition.!

When! you! let! yourself! be!

flawed! and! human,! you!

become!the!perfect!healer.!

Hormone replacement helps maintain brain function, protects against bone loss,

intestinal cancer, urinary tract infections, and heart disease. Hormones also help to maintain sexual drive and function, and keep energy levels up. Bioidentical hormones are usually used, which are identical to our own natural hormones that decrease as we age. They are the safest option in hormone replacement.

Healthy Communication - By Clelia Saraceni

Getting'it'Right!'

What'does'that'mean?'

!

In!Communication,! it!means!ensuring! that! your!message!was! sent! clearly! and!received!clearly.!!!

Easier!said!than!done,!as!we!all!believe!our!messages!are!very! clearly! delivered! and!received.!!!

The! truth! is,! however,! that!this! is! not! so.! ! We! want! to!believe! it! but! if! that! were!the!case!then!there!wouldn’t!be! so! much! anxiety! around!what! it! is! we! are! truly!communicating! when! we!interact!with!someone.!

Our! lives!move! at! an! active!pace!now.!!Every!interaction!we!have!has!to!count.!!!

We! cannot! afford! to! lie!awake!at!night!wondering!if!we! delivered! a! clear!message.!!!

This! drains! our! energy! and!our! time;! both! critical!factors! to! improving! our!health! and! reducing! our!stress.!!

Communication! and! Stress!are!like!the!proverbial!!

Chicken!and!Egg!story.!!!

Bad!communication!leads!to!Stress! and! too! much! stress!leads!to!bad!communication.!Under! stress,! you’re! more!likely! to! misread! other!people’s! message,! send!confusing! verbal! and!nonverbal! signals,! and! fall!back! into! unhealthy! kneeFjerk!patterns!of!behavior.!!!

You!need!to!learn!to!control!your! stress! in# the# moment,!you! don’t! have! time! for! a!massage! or! quick!meditation!!!!

How'do'you'do'that?'

Here! are! a! few! steps! to!consider:!

1. Be!aware!of!your!stress!

2. Find! the! humor! in! the!situation!

3. Agree! to! disagree,! be!Flexible!

Page 25: March2013 hum

!

!

4. Take! deep! breaths! to!control! the! flood! of!emotions!

What! about! your! core!values?!!!

How! does! that! come! into!play! when! talking! about!effective! communication!and!stress?!!!

Your! core! values! create! the!boundaries! you! are! willing!to!live!your!life!by!on!a!dayFtoFday!basis.!!!

Reminding! yourself! of! your!core! values! will! help! with!communication!and!stress.!!!

Values! like! patience,!kindness,! honesty,!forgiveness,! humor,!accepting,! balance,! respect,!tolerant,! thoughtful! and!wellness! are! just! a! few!reminders! of! the! kinds! of!values!we!all!possess.!!

Creating!a!way!to!remind!us!of! our! core! values!will! help!reduce! any! stress! that! can!come!from!

Charge Based On Value by Tshombe Brown

Why$ should$ you$ charge$based$ on$ value,$ rather$ than$based$on$time?$$

I$was$ talking$ to$ a$ client$ the$other$ day$ who$ is$ still$struggling$ with$ how$ to$charge$ for$ his$ services$ and$how$ much,$ specifically$ in$terms$of$ charging$an$hourly$rate$or$a$flat$fee.$

$As$ a$ spiritual$ entrepreneur,$

have$you$also$struggled$with$this$decision?$$$

$What$ choice$ honors$ and$serves$ both$ you$ and$ your$client?$

$The$ marketing$ strategist,$Adam$ Urbanski,$ offers$ that$the$ focus$ of$ our$ pricing$structure$ @@$ especially$when$we're$ talking$ about$providing$ services$ as$

opposed$ to$ products$ @@$needs$to$be$on$the$value$our$services$ provide$ to$ our$clients.$$

What's$ the$ difference$between$price$and$value?$$Adam$ offers$ two$ potent$illustrations$ to$ grant$ clarity$to$ this$ often@challenging$question.$

$The$ first$ example$ Adam$offered$ was$ the$ response$someone$ gave$ to$ the$Spanish$ Painter,$ Pablo$Picasso,$regarding$a$piece$of$art$ he$ produced.$ $I$ don't$remember$ the$ sum$ he$required$ for$ it,$ but$ the$person$ considering$ it$

Page 27: March2013 hum

exclaimed$$"What?!!$$

It$ only$ took$ you$ 5$ minutes$to$do$that$sketch!"$$

"No,$ it$ didn't,"$ answered$Picasso.$ $"It$ took$ me$ a$lifetime."$$

When$ we$ get$ hung$ up$ on$pricing$ our$ services$ by$ the$hour,$ we$ actually$ end$ up$devaluing$ ourselves,$converting$our$services$ into$a$ common$ commodity$ that$people$can$get$anywhere.$$

The$ other$ story$ Adam$offered$ involved$ a$ man's$trip$ to$ the$ dentist$ to$ have$his$ tooth$ extracted.$ $The$dentist$ efficiently$ goes$ to$work,$quickly$and$efficiently$removing$ the$ man's$ tooth,$and$sending$him$on$his$way$to$pay$the$receptionist.$

Upon$ casually$ looking$ over$the$bill,$his$eyes$slowly$land$on$ the$ total,$which$happens$to$ be$ $1,200.$ $Shocked,$ the$man$begins$throwing$a$fit$in$the$ lobby.$ $The$ dentist$comes$ out$ to$ see$ what's$going$on.$$"What$ is$ this?!"$ Shouts$ the$man.$ "$1,200?$ Come$ on.$$You$ barely$ saw$ me$ 2$minutes.$$$

$I'm$ not$ buying$ your$ entire$office;$ I$ just$ had$ my$ tooth$extracted."$$

"What's$ the$ problem?"$asked$the$dentist.$$

$$"That$ I$ only$ took$ 2$minutes?$$$$

You$can$come$back$in,$and$I$can$ take$ another$2$hours,$ if$

you$like."$The$ moral$ of$ the$ story$ is$that$ time$ has$ little$ to$ do$with$value.$$

Time$ is$ what$ you$ use$ to$create$ a$ solution,$ and$ value$is$ what$ clients$ and$customers$ get$ out$ of$ the$solution.$

$What$ does$ that$ mean$ for$you$and$me?$$

Uncover$ the$ true$ value$ of$your$ solution$ @@$ what$ your$ideal$clients$tangibly$get$out$of$ your$ solution$ @@$ and$charge$ based$ on$ THAT,$ not$on$time.$

Are$you$struggling$with$how$to$uncover$the$true$value$of$your$solution$ for$ the$clients$you$are$meant$to$serve?$

Return On Investment: Calculating The Costs by Karen Monteverdi

In!the!last!article!In!the!February!

edition! of!HUM,!we!wrote! about!

the! concept! of! Return! on!

Investment!and!Perceived!Value.!

In! this! article,! we! will! move!

deeper!into!how!we!calculate!the!

Return!on!Investment.!

!

In! 2012,! when! I! talked! to! a!

marketing! company,! I! asked! if!

they! would! help! me! determine!

how! much! to! spend! on! each!

client!for!marketing.!!

!

I! needed! to! calculate!my! Return!

on!Investment.!

!

First! you! must! begin! by!

understanding! your! emotional,!

physical! and! spiritual!

investment.! What! is! the! “sweat!

equity”! you! put! into! your!

business,! and! or! each! product,!

service!and!client.!

!

Emotionally!and!spiritually!these!

investments! are! best! designed!

when! they! offer! you! joy! and!

spiritual! freedom! to!be!who!you!

truly!are.!Any!energy!that!enters!

into! the! spending! of! your! time!

becomes!much!more! fluid! when!

you! can!work! in! peace! love! and!

joy.!!

!

It! is! important! that! you! are!

aware!that!what!you!offer!will!be!

enriching! and! empowering! to!

others! as! well.! That! is! where!

your! research! marketing! comes!

in.!But!that!is!another!article.!!

!

What! that! means! is! if! you! are!

angry,! upset,! living! in! doubt! or!

fear!while!working!on!a!project!it!

is! absorbed! by! the! project.! You!

are! actually! infusing! energy! into!

the! creation.! If! this! happens,! do!

not! scrap! the!project,! but! rather!

sit!back!and!enjoy!your!creation.!!

!

This! month,! and! in! the! first!

article! of! this! magazine! is! a!

description! of! the! course! called!

Being!Your!Own!Best!Friend.!You!

might! need! this! course! if! you!

cannot! let! go! of! any! negative!

energy! and! you! are! not! able! to!

infuse!the!project!with!joy.!!

Let’s! talk! about! your! time,!

money! and! energy! for! a!

moment.!!

!

Sweat! equity! is! a! term! used! in!

the! real! estate! industry,! and!

more! recently! it! has! been!

coined! and! utilized! for!

entrepreneurships! that! have!

little!to!no!start!up!cash.!!

!

The! more! labor! applied! to! the!

object,! and! the! greater! the!

resultant! increase! in! value,! the!

more! sweat! equity! that! has!

been!used.!!

!

“This!concept,!also!called!"stock!

for! services"! and! sometimes!

"equity! compensation"! or!

"sweat!equity"!can!also!be!seen!

when! startup! companies! use!

their! shares! of! stock! to! entice!

service! providers! to! provide!

necessary! corporate! services! in!

exchange! for! a! discount! or! for!

deferring! service! fees! until! a!

later!date,!see!e.g.!"Idea!Makers!

and! Idea! Brokers! in! High!

Page 33: March2013 hum

Technology! Entrepreneurship"!

by! Todd! L.! Juneau! et! al.,!

Greenwood! Press,! 2003,! which!

describes! equity! for! service!

programs! involving! patent!

lawyers! and! securities! lawyers!

who! specialize! in! startYup!

companies!as!clients.!!

!

How! do! you! calculate! your!

“sweat! equity,! and! exactly! what!

does!the!term!mean?!

!

Sweat! equity! is! the! ownership!

interest,!or!increase!in!value,!that!

is! created! as! a! direct! result! of!

hard!work!by!the!owner(s).!!

!

It! is! the! preferred! mode! of!

building!equity!for!cashYstrapped!

entrepreneurs! in! their! startYup!

ventures,! since! they! may! be!

unable! to! contribute! much!

financial! capital! to! their!

enterprise.!!

!

When!I!spoke!to!the!marketing!

firm,!as!I!stated!earlier,!I!was!

given!the!following!formula:!

!

ROI=Cost)of)Having)A)Client)

!

Then! they!broke! it! down! for!me!

like!this:!

!

!

Cost! of! Having! A! Client! =! How!

much!money,!time!and!energy!do!

I! spend! on! converting! a!

prospective!client!into!a!client.!!

!

Then,! how! much! money! does! it!

take! to! keep! my! business! going!

so!I!can!serve!the!client?!!

!

Honestly! I! never! thought! of! it!

that! way! before!! It! was! a! wake!

up!call.!!

!

First,! I! added! up! all! of! my!

business! expenses! to! determine!

my! costs! of! doing! business.! (I!

have! included! a! list! on! the! next!

page! of! normal! business!

expenses.)!!

!

Then!I!added!in!my!cost!of!living.!

I! needed! to! know! how! much!

money! it! would! take! to! run! my!

household! budget.! This!

determined! how!much! I! needed!

to! pay! myself.! This! amount! is!

considered!the!payroll.!

!

Are! there! hidden! costs! such! as!

membership! fees,! associations,!

certifications! and! continuing!

education!costs?!!

!

What! is! the! growth! I! want! to!

experience!in!this!year?!!

!

In!other!words,!how!many!

people!can!I!serve!next!year?!

)

This!is!how!I!did!it:!

!

1. Figure!out!my!cost!of!living!&!doing!business!annually)

2. Figure!how!many!people! can!physically! be! served! by! my!

current!system)

3. How! many! hours! can!

realistically! be! used! for! this!

service!each!month?)

)

We!must! take! into!consideration!

our! physical,! spiritual! and!

emotional!energy!and!what!each!

client!uses.!

!

We!must! fill! ourselves! up! so!we!

have! enough! to! share! and!

enough! to! spare! without!

depleting!our!own!resources.!

!

!In! my! business! I! need! to!

calculate! other! activities! as! well!

that!are!associated!with!working!

with! the! public! (paperwork,!

advertising,!invoicing,!marketing,!

phone! calls,! resource! searches,!

product! development! and! then!

the! actual! time! I! meet! with! the!

client.)!!!

Page 34: March2013 hum

!

Then! multiply! the! number! of!

people!by!12.!!This!is!your!yearly!

hourly!consumption!by!clients.!

!

Next,! take! your! desired! annual!

salary! and! divide! it! by! the!

number! of! people! per! year! you!

want!to!serve.!!

!

This! is! the! price! of! doing!

business! per! person! yearly!!!

“COSTs”!

!

If!you!are!not!charging!enough!to!

support! the! costs,! then! you!may!

want! to! look! at! the! value! you!

offer.! Can! you! raise! or! lower!

your!prices?!

!

Next,! look! at! the! number! of!

people! can! you! serve,! do! you!

need!more?!But!you!just!checked!

your! time! and! energy,! how! can!

you!possibly!do!more?!

!

Of! course! there! are! all! kinds! of!

solutions! for! you,! and!we!would!

love! to! be! a! resource! to! help!

decide! the! right! one…! but! onto!

the!Costs…!

!

Divide! the! “COSTs”! by! the!

“HOURS”.! This! is! a! general!

example! of! the! costs! associated!

with!each!client.!

!

This! is! the! beginning! of! the!

marketing! budget.! The! number!

from!your!calculation!is!a!general!

starting! point! to! further!

understand! your! return! on!

investment.!

!

To! price! my! products! and!

services! wisely,! there! are! more!

things!I!consider.!I!listen!to!many!

webinars,! teleconferences! and!

stories! about! how! healers! price!

their! products! and! services.!

Often! they! just! pick! a! random!

number,! or! they! set! their! price!

by!what!the!competition!is!doing.!

How! do! you! know! if! their! price!

tag!will!work! for! your!business?!

What! is! your! cost! of! doing!

business?! Is! it! the! same! as! your!

competition?! Please,! use!

common! sense.! To! generate! a!

healthy! thriving! business,! learn!

business!skills.!!

!

I! discovered!my! perfect! rate! for!

an!intensive!is!$750.!I!received!a!

note!last!week!from!a!client.!This!

note! is! an! example! of! perceived!

value:! “you! are! far! underpricing!

your! services,! although! that!was!

good! for! me,! of! course!! You! are!

truly! gifted! and! I! am! SO!

impressed! with! you! and! all! the!

things! you! have! done! and! are!

doing.”!

!

Of! course,! I! could! always! charge!

more.! However,! then! I! must!

decide! if! it! is! worth! it! to! me! to!

place!my!prices!out!of!range,! for!

some! of! my! clients.! ! I! let! spirit!

guide! me! within! a! range! of!

numbers! that! work! in! the! real!

world.!!

!

So!how!do!I!figure!it!all!out?!!

!

The! first! thing! is! to! know!when!

figuring!out!your!pricing!is:!what!

are! the! results! your! client! will!

receive.! Calculate! it! in! time,!

money! or! energy?! How! much!

value!will!they!receive?!

!

As! of! today! I! continue! to! set!my!

prices!based!on!value!I!offer!and!

the!needs! of!my!business.! I! trim!

the! fat!where! I! can.! I! pass! those!

savings! onto! my! clients.! They!

appreciate! this! consideration! it!

keeps!them!coming!back.!!!

!

This! year,! I! created! a! monthly!

BizRichment™ was founded in 2009 from the Healers Unite Lecture and further developed by The Meeting Place and Healers Unite Portland Movement and through the Portland Peace Conference.

The wake up call:

It was a stark realization to the group that 80% of all new coaches failed to create a self-sustaining income through coaching in the first year. Further discovery proved that 65% of practitioners in the healing community specifically alternative health industry went out of business in the first year. These statistics gave us pause, armed with the knowledge we could assist our community of healers, coaches and practitioners, through coaching and mentoring we began to see results. The overall statistics have changed in the national numbers. However, we noted that those businesses that chose to create a relationship with a coaching mastermind group, personal or executive coaching, began to see results right away. They increased their ability to maintain their success in “staying afloat” in the critical years.
