Deborah's Articles/Books

There have been so many wonderful things happening in my life that I would like to give thanks. I hope that as I share the delightful experiences I've had that you also take a moment to think about, write down, revel in and rejoice in the experiences in your life that you have reason to give thanks for.

If you are feeling that there haven't been or are only a few things to give thanks for, then this is a great time to begin looking at all the little and big things that happen for which thanks can be given. In doing so you will be focusing on giving thanks and as the Universe so kindly does, will bring in more things to give thanks for.

I am thankful:

* for living so close to the mountains that in 10 min I can be walking on the tails along the streams in the freshness of the mornings. And for having the best company ever on these walks, my chocolate lab, Figo.

* for living in sunny Mexico after years of shoveling snow in North Dakota, where I grew up.

* for being an EFT practitioner and using my skills with EFT to help people feel better.

* for being in contact with you, for sharing my ideas and EFT scripts with you.

* for the opportunity to work with EFT with Kids with Cancer in a hospital setting. This experience has changed my life enormously (for the better). I have been given the opportunity not only to work within the hospital for over a year now, but have permission to teach the hospital staff EFT in 2009. Whoo hoo!!

* that a short video clip of me tapping with the kids in the hospital is ready and is available on YouTube. Clic here to see video

* for taking one of the most incredible courses of my life called Dressing Your Truth created by Carol Tuttle. I discovered what my internal element and movement are through Energy Profiling. Once I understood what my type and essence are, I was taught how to show it on the exterior by using color, texture, and form in the clothes and jewelry I wear, the hair cut I have and more. I feel like I have come "home" in my body for the first time in my life. I am aligned internally and externally. I feel that what I put on my body honors and is in harmony with my inner essence. I feel like a new woman. (See my Contact page)

* for being so inspired by this feeling that I took the Consultation Course for Dressing Your Truth, which I'm calling Dressing Your Light Within (based on my Find the Light Within). I am now licensed and ready to help people Dress their Light Within.

* for knowing that this list could be endless as I look around and find more and more things to give thanks for.

Write out your list of things you want to give thanks for. I have a feeling it will get longer than you imagined.

GIVING THANKS

Even if there are many distressing things going on in the world and in my life, I can always find something to give thanks for.

Even though it is easy to focus on all the negativity because that is what is shown on the news and what people talk about all the time, it doesn't mean that I can't look for things to be thankful for. In fact, there are many things for which to be grateful.

Even though I still fall into negativity at times, I can choose at any moment to focus on something that makes me smile, like a smiling child, puppies playing or a beautiful sunset. I feel better when I do.

I am thankful that I am able to choose what I think about. I am thankful that I choose to focus on the good things in my life. I feel so good when I do.

Eyebrow:
I give thanks for being alive. That is the first thing I choose to notice when I rise in the morning.

Side of Eye:
I give thanks that I have something to live for. First of all, to live my life. That alone is enough reason to give thanks.

Under the Eye:
I give thanks for the body I have. It is my home. It is where I live. It takes me everywhere I want to go. I give my body an extra thanks today.

Under the Nose:
I give thanks for my mind. I have the capability to think and therefore create what I desire in my life.

Chin:
I have the ability to change my thoughts from negative to positive. I have the ability to make changes in my life and that of others just by how I think.

Collarbone:
I give thanks for my feelings. They make life so delicious. What would life be like if I didn't feel anything.

Under the Arm:
Wow! It is amazing to feel joy, sorrow, peace, unrest, pleasure, pain, delight, fright, and every other emotion.

Top of Head:
Each one reminds me that I am alive, that there is the contrast of these emotions to help me determine what I desire. I thank my feelings for accompanying me in life.

Eyebrow:
I give thanks for being a spirit in physical body. I am grateful that I receive signs every day to guide me.

Side of Eye:
Sometimes I don't notice these signs but I choose to be more aware of them and follow the ones that are true to my heart.

Under the Eye:
I give thanks that these signs and opportunities come into my life because they give me a chance to have something to be grateful
for.

Under the Nose:
I give thanks for the big and small opportunities I have. It may be as simple as making someone smile or something much larger that touches the hearts and souls of many.

Chin:
I give thanks for being able to recognize these opportunities, being open to receive them and to take advantage of them, and enjoy the delicious outcome of them.

Collarbone:
I give thanks for being supported, cherished and loved during these opportunities.

Under the Arm:
I choose to be grateful for every moment of my day, my week and my life. Being grateful every moment is the biggest gift I could give to myself.

Top of Head:
I am grateful to be alive in this time of great change. I have the opportunity to participate and make these changes lighter and easier by staying in a state of gratitude.
