Hosea Ballou The Positive Power of No When we say NO, to say YES in acknowledgement of our own value and worth, it is an affirmation of dignity. The choice to say NO is liberating as you are saying YES to yourself, and that which is aligned with who you are. You are constantly bombarded with requests for your time, money and commitment, more than you can possibly take on. How do you know which opportunities are right for you? In order to use your time efficiently, and stay sane, you need to be able to say YES and NO with minimum anxiety. Why does guilt so often follow that dreaded word NO? Why do doubt and regret follow so close after the word YES Whether it’s a romantic relationship, family, colleague or friend, we all have to say NO from time to time. M ost of us find this hard and we often end up feeling conflicted. Your adult child wants to borrow money again and you say NO because you don’t want to enable him and you want him to learn responsibility. Your young child wants to stay up late and you say NO because you want to protect her from being tired the next day. Your colleague wants you to take on some of their work and you say NO because you are already overloaded. NO is hard, and YES isn’t much easier. How do you say YES to a child without creating an attitude of entitlement? How do you say NO to a child without crushing their spirit? How do you say YES to a friend without losing your own power? How do you say NO to a friend without harming the relationship? How do you say YES to a client without setting up false expectations? How do you say NO to a client without losing their business? NO is the defining word of negativity, but it doesn’t have to be a negative experience. YES is the defining word of permission, but it isn’t permission to be walked over. YES and NO can work together for the highest good. Saying NO can be a liberating experience for everyone involved, especially when your NO is coming from your highest intention which is clearing the way for a deeper YES. Reclaim the power of NO without guilt. It’s a beautiful thing; for you, for the other person and for the relationship. It offers everyone involved the gift of self-responsibility. When you have clear reasons and a clear strategy for saying NO it becomes a very positive and empowering experience. When you say NO you may be really saying YES to something more important. When we say NO to say YES in acknowledgement our own value as a human being worthy of equality and respect. The same principle holds for many people leaving relationships or jobs. As hard as it may be, the choice to say NO is liberating because you are stamping a giant YES on 5/16 WWW.BODYANDMIND.CO.ZA Without health life is not life; it is only a state of langour and suffering, an image of death. Buddha your own worth as a human being and leaving yourself open to the many things still in store for you. You are saying YES to yourself and to new relationships and jobs that are more closely aligned with who you are. You deserve to be treated well. You deserve abundance. You deserve life affirming beliefs. You deserve respectful relationships. Say NO to anything less. We need both YES and NO together. YES is the key word of community, NO the key word of individuality. YES is the key word of connection, NO the key word of protection. YES is the key word of peace, NO the key word of justice. The great art is to learn to integrate the two; unite YES and NO. That is the secret to standing up for yourself and what you need without destroying agreements and relationships. If all you do is say a straight thoughtless NO, you could easily get stuck in a cycle of negativity. Say NO out of a deeper YES, to yourself, that your whole being: mind, body and spirit, soar. Choose relationships that affirm your worth and dignity. Measure everything you hear and read by evidence, by intuition and by your deeper YES. Does it resonate with your deepest vision of peace? Does it make your life more whole and healthy? Does it strengthen your relationships? If you are saying YES to these questions, then you know you are living with integrity. When your highest self you can say NO with ease and it won’t threaten your relationships. It will open up paths you have searched for to the deeper YES that lies within.

The conflict between what we’re told we feel and what we really feel may be the richest source of confusion, dissatisfaction, and unnecessary suffering of our time. The answers normally proffered don’t answer the questions at the heart of our erotic lives: Why are men and women so different in our desires, fantasies, responses, and sexual behavior? Why are we betraying and divorcing each other at ever increasing rates when not opting out of marriage entirely? Why the pandemic spread of single-parent families? Why does the passion evaporate from so many marriages so quickly? What causes the death of desire? Having evolved together right here on Earth, why do so many men and women resonate with the idea that we may as well be from different planets?" Christopher Ryan PhD There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it. Edith Wharton Lizz Huesmann Inspiration: As a therapist, I was called in to work with a man who was in a coma, who was given 24 hours to live. Despite all hopeless prognoses by the specialists treating him, seeing him come back from the shadows into the light of vibrant health, inspired me to share his, and other stories taken from my case studies, to try and inspire others to aspire to better health and healing. My own journey with breast cancer just inspired me more. This book contains true stories about the miraculous ability our bodies have for healing on an emotional, mental, physical and spiritual level – if we so choose! But! Do we really want the healing, or do we just think we do? The Mind/Body connection is extremely powerful. I believe in the Body/Mind concept. In other words, as we think, so we are. The main characters are clients of mine taken from the past 17 years of practice in the Complementary Health field. They are important, for without them, there would be no stories! I am one of the main characters, as it is the story of my journey into, and through, this mystifying, amazing world of healing. I have learned that those who came before me have left a genetic footprint that will follow and influence me, my children and grandchildren, for generations to come. Whenever I have spoken to people about these stories, they have listened agog, and told me I should write them down, so I have! We are faced with such stress, so many social and family ills and health problems, and so little support. Society and the Medical fraternity often fail us, and we need whatever help we can get. I think this book shows people how to trust in their own intuition, to go within, to Source, and to find there what they often cannot find outside. We also need to realize that we do not stand alone, and that our ancestors are with us still today in genetic cellular memory. We need to heal all the traumas of their past, so that we can enjoy a healthy, wealthy, successful, joyful future. I think cancer is so 'common' these days that any thing written about it which could help people through it is of value. When I was diagnosed, I did not find the support needed. It was a very lonely journey, even with the support of family and friends. The word cancer is filled with fear, with connotations of pain, suffering and death, not victory. We need to hear more positive stories. As human beings, we seem to relish the drama and negativity in all spheres of life. Well bad news sells, doesn't it?! This book also teaches that when we heal the past, we can heal the future. I think I have had the courage to speak out about healing in a new and very different way, which will make people look at themselves and their health and well-being in a different light. I have learnt that love overcomes all fear. That we must never say “never”. That guilt and blame are very destructive energies, and often lie behind what ails us. That we need to forgive the past so that we can enjoy the future. We need to live in love and not hatred and fear. That there is always hope. That love overcomes everything. Through personal health problems and positive experiences and results with reflexology, I came to study various techniques involving Complementary Health therapies, and it just grew from there. I learned that words and thoughts are energy – very powerful energy – and need to be positive rather than negative. I am always learning. 10/16 WWW.BODYANDMIND.CO.ZA Change your thoughts and you change your world. Norman Vincent Peale An extract from the book: “The mist was thick and swirling. Des could hardly see the road. He focused on the white line dividing the two lanes. Nervously they sped off into the night. Visibility was about two metres and he followed the white ribbon through the mist. Suddenly, the white line ended, cut by a giant pair of scissors.. The road divided into two separate lanes with a central island. Too late, the island loomed out of the mist, and Des drove straight into it. The Tank swerved on impact, and started rolling. Over and over. Inside, only Claude was strapped in. Mike's door flew open, and he was propelled outwards and upwards into the waiting arms of the mist. His body slammed into a palisade fence, where he lay in a crumpled, broken heap. Des flew upwards, and he felt his skull fracture and shards of pain blinded him as he crashed through the sunroof. As his body was halfway through, the Tank rolled again, this time crushing his pelvis and rupturing his liver and kidneys. His hip and leg broke like matchsticks. Then silence except for soft groans and frantic calls through the mist. “Mike! Mike! Where are you?” Silence. “Claude! Clive!” Groans Des dragged his broken body over wet grass and unyielding stones. What was wrong with his legs? The pain was indescribable. He dragged himself towards the soft sounds. He found Mike. “Talk to me! Mike, talk to me! Are you O.K?” He felt rather than saw the blood seeping everywhere. Whose was it? His or Mike's? “Oh God, Mike, don't die! Please don't die!” There was a shudder. A soft sigh. The shocking realization. It was too late for Mike. The date of his birth had become the date of his death. Sobbing, he cradled Mike in his arms, oblivious now to his own pain. He pressed Mike's head against his chest and his tears mingled with the blood as the Grim Reaper came to claim the prize that had been denied him the previous week. How much sweeter to die in the arms of your best friend, than alone in the icy, unwelcoming sea...” This book is available directly from the author at R200 plus postage/courier service.
