Awaken to Great Sex

sex No Comments

Really when you think about it, it is a wonder that there are not more people with sexual problems. With all the things that work against them, the surprise is not that people have sexual problems; the surprise is that there are couples with satisfying sex lives.I have often heard in reference to sex that God has a sense of humor. Think about the differences between men and women. Men want sex to feel close; women want to feel close to have sex. Men take two minutes to be ready for intercourse; women take twenty minutes to be ready for intercourse.These differences between the sexes can hinder enjoyment of sex. Regardless of gender, almost without fail the person with a high desire for sex will choose a partner with a low desire. Add in the fact that whenever you go to bed with your partner you have all your past, present and future running interference. Often the result is a recipe for disaster.Like it or not, unless you are conscious and careful, you will take your past to bed with you. You will end up with past lovers, possibly your parents, friends or others in bed with you. Thoughts and voices in your head that say, “this is acceptable, this is what to expect, good girls don’t”, or other ideas that you have internalized as beliefs. You may even have your past experiences with your partner yammering for attention in your head. “There he goes again, just thinking of himself, every time, . . .”Today will also be pulling at your attention. There may be a lack of privacy, interruptions by children, telephone, television, or a lack of enthusiasm due to fatigue or stress. Whatever it might be that takes your attention away from your partner and lovemaking, it is going to hinder your enjoyment of sex.The future also intrudes with thoughts of bills, chores, or plans. The list is endless. There is the joke about the wife who looks up during sex and thinks, “Beige . . . I think I’ll paint the ceiling beige . . . ” The sad thing is that this is all to close to the truth in many relationships. Instead of enjoying the time together in bed, their minds are on what is coming next.The only way to rid your bedroom of these distractions is to become fully present in the moment when you are making love. If sex was good at the beginning, you may have had the feeling that time almost stopped, that the two of you were momentarily cut off from the world. If you were able to enter that world where only two can go, chances are it was because you were fully present; your attention was focused on that moment and on each other. You have the ability to reenter that world where passionate lovers go. If you have not yet experienced that height of passion it is possible for you.It involves some discipline and some practice. But conscious lovemaking is something that you can learn to enjoy in your relationship. You can awaken to great sex.

What is Personal Development Coaching?

personal development No Comments

To understand what a personal development coach does, you must first understand what personal development means. Personal development is a path towards well being through behavior modification and self improvement techniques. Simply put, it is being able to enjoy your life in a conscious way by improving yourself and circumstances. It can be improving yourself in one area or a complete overhaul of your life. Typically, personal growth is a consistent intention done purposely daily. For many people, self improvement is a continual necessary process. By improving ourselves, we dramatically improve our outcomes and opportunities. But for many wishing to change, they lack the knowledge or tools to do so. This is where personal development coaches came aboard.Personal development coaching was created especially to educate and motivate individuals who desired a positive vision for their life. Called “Life Coaches”, these teachers embrace powerful strategies for self management and personal growth. There are different categories of life coaches. Each life coach has his specialty area and unique approach. Some teach how to change habits, while some embrace more spiritual design platforms. Personal development coaching can include anything from how to improve your relationships to overcoming public speaking. Whatever weak areas exist in your life, a life coach can be called in to strengthen and encourage.A life coach can help you redefine your purpose for living. They have the skill and resources needed to re-direct your life into a more meaningful existence. Everybody needs a strong support system and reinforcing positive feedback. It is the food necessary for good mental health, and for personal growth. Not everybody has access to a quality support system. Just as a personal body trainer whips a person into physical shape, a life coach whips a person’s life into shape.Life can layer setbacks easily. Confidence can wash in and out in a moment. There are those stuck patterns in living which make it seem near impossible to move forward. In personal development coaching these patterns are tackled head on.It is with the help of a life coach self-actualization happens. The right life coach will teach you how to be an over-comer. The message is delivered through positive tools you can use to restructure problem areas. Many large companies schedule professional and executive seminars to help their employees with career objectives. Motivational speakers and life coaches aim hard with their messages. The seminars are said to increase productivity and round out the work environments.Not everybody needs a life coach. Ascertaining whether or not you need one depends on your needs. If you just cannot work through the setbacks, or if you need to learn new behaviors, then you probably want to consider seeking out a life coach. Everybody is doing it, so never feel you have to struggle alone. You owe it to yourself to maximize your human potential. The first step to self improvement is acknowledging your weaknesses. The second step is to find the help you need. A life coach could be your saving grace.

It is making conscious decisions that must be executed to ensure our lifetime goal. Lifetime health and fitness is a commitment to a lifestyle change to live a happier and healthier life.Since the turn of the century, the average life span in the United States has increased markedly from 47 years old in 1900 to 77.3 years old at the turn of the century. While the rapid developments in new medical technology and medicine can be credited with most of the increases, a lack of commitment to lifetime fitness means that a majority of these people did not enjoy happy, healthy lifestyles.Sadly, 33 percent of high school students across the country do not participate in the recommended amount of lifetime health and fitness activities as outlined by the Surgeon General and the President’s Council on Physical Fitness. This lack of activity in fitness programs often carries into adulthood, where the number of people without lifetime exercise and fitness program increases.According to a lifetime fitness report by the National Institute on Aging, only 58 percent of the American population engages in a lifetime fitness program that involves leisure time vigorous activity and of those people, only 26 percent do so three or more times a week as part of their lifetime fitness program.So how does a lifetime exercise and fitness program improve your quality of life?The Center for Disease Control lists the following top five annual causes of death in the United States.* Heart disease: 696,947 deaths
* Cancer: 557,271 deaths
* Stroke: 162,672 deaths
* Chronic lower respiratory diseases: 124,816 deaths
* Accidents (unintentional injuries): 106,742 deaths
With the exception of accidental deaths, all other leading forms of death could have been avoided or delayed with a lifetime health and fitness program that included exercise, a healthy diet, and non-smoking.When a lifetime health and fitness program includes a diet that low in cholesterol, a significant reduction in the build up of fatty deposits called plaque is noticeable in the arteries. If too much plaque forms in the arteries, they become clogged, reducing the amount of blood and oxygen that circulate to the coronary arteries, and can ultimately lead to a heart attack or stroke.A healthy lifetime fitness program should never include cigarette smoking. Smoking has been linked to cancer, chronic respiratory problems, and cancer.In 1986, Shirechiyo Izumi of Japan died at the age of 120 years, 237 days.
