There Is No Elevator For Success- You Have To Take The Stairs!

I love this quote. You have to work at success! 

You will not get there by simply standing still and waiting till a door opens for you. 

Go toward that door yourself. 

Do not wait for it to open. 

Be a mover and shaker and walk- run- crawl - or roll toward your goal................. just keep moving in the right direction! 

Keep on going - take action- and do not give up!

A lot of my clients share with me that they do not feel worthy of a new beginning in life. 

They have made terrible mistakes. 

They have mistreated others. 

They have too much shame and guilt from their past.

Some have been abused and somehow blame themselves.  

No matter what it is that you have been through- YOU CAN GET PAST IT AND YOU ARE WORTHY!  

You need to change your thinking and let go of the idea of unworthiness.  

Replace it with telling yourself that you ARE worthy and valuable. 
 

Furthermore, God can take any and everything that you have been through and use it for His Glory and For Good In YOUR Life!

Let your test turn into a testimony!

Turn being a victim into VICTORY! 

The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him. Psalm 28:7 
 

Give the Lord your pain and suffering in prayer and get into counseling and................... start living life again!

YOU ARE WORTHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
God LOVES YOU! 

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!  2 Corinthians 5:17

Happiness is.................  a choice............not a response.

No One Can Make You Happy! You have to make yourself happy. You also need to be happy with yourself first before you can be in a healthy relationship.

Happiness is a journey..........not a destination.

Happiness is finding joy and contentment among adversity.

Happiness is choosing to see the positive side of life.

Happiness is not dwelling on the negative or things that you cannot control.

Happiness is having a person in your life that accepts you for who you are.

Happiness is self-respect and self-love.

Happiness is.......the little things in life that bring you joy.

Happiness is not having to set an alarm for the next day.

Happiness is choosing to heal and not remaining a victim. 

Happiness is feeling that you are blessed.
 

Happiness is an inside job. ~William Arthur Ward
 
Don't put the key to happiness in someone else's pocket. ~Author Unknown

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony. ~Mahatma Gandhi

 The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet. ~James Openheim

 Happiness is a form of courage. ~Holbrook Jackson


Happiness is a direction, not a place. ~Sydney J. Harris



“The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.” -Marcus Aurelis

Miscarriage, Infant death, Stillbirth........are devastating. People often do not know what to say to women and families who have suffered such a loss. 

Because of this, it is often difficult to obtain support with these types of losses. 

Along with being a Clinical Mental Health Counselor, I have personally suffered 5 miscarriages and also had an infant daughter die a couple hours after her birth.

I know your pain. I would like to help you in your journey of healing. 

There is a support group that I offer every month for grief and loss on every 3rd Tuesday evening at my office in Murfreesboro. The next group for grief and loss is Oct. 18th at 7pm.

Have you ever wondered what specific symptoms need to be present in order for someone to be dependent on alcohol....thus, to be considered an alcoholic?

Here are the main symptoms:

Withdrawal symptoms when reduced consumption


Reducing activities that are considered important due to drinking 


Excessive time spent obtaining, consuming, or recovering from the effects of alcohol


Having a tolerance to alcohol and a diminished effect from it due to increased consumption


Continued drinking despite knowing that it is causing a physical or psychological problem


Persistence desire to drink alcohol and the inability to cut down on the amount   


Drinking larger amounts of alcohol for longer time periods more so than what was intended

There are three types of stress. 

1. Stimulus-based......The first type of stress is when a person is under a lot of pressure with life events. This type of stress can lead to physical illness.

The best treatment for this type of stress is to learn how to take things out of your life that is too much and to find a healthy balance.

2. Response -based......The second type of stress is physical and psychological in which a person feels completely stressed out. This type of stress can lead to anxiety, poor concentration, fatigue, and bodily tension.
This type of stress is also referred to as general adaptation syndrome.



The best treatment for this type of stress is relaxation exercises, biofeedback, yoga and meditation/ mindfulness. 

3. Interactional.....The third type of stress is when you believe that you just can no longer cope and you think that you do not have the ability to deal with things. This type of stress can lead to a multitude of symptoms that are physical and emotional.  

The best treatment for this type of stress is Cognitive Behavioral Modification and Stress Inoculation Training. 

Of course counseling can help you manage any type of stress!

Learn how to effectively deal with stress before it overtakes your life with anxiety and / or illness.
