On the Cover of My First Magazine!


Hi there! I haven't blogged in a while as we update my website, but I wanted to touch base since it's been so long.


I’m on my summer teaching tour. The East Coast has been just amazing so far. I flew to New York to teach and officiate a wedding in Pennsylvania. (Congrats to the beautiful couple!)

Officiating the Wedding of my Coach Lisa Caroselli


We had a blast and took the boys to DC to see how the country was run, too. We've traveled so much internationally that they've seen more countries than U.S. states, so we're working on that :-)

The Fedora Bunch on the East Coast

San Francisco is next week (see magazine cover above), and I look forward to seeing many of you for my workshops there -- they're always crowded & fun.


Boy is love in the air! Below is a fascinating email I got about not being able to sleep.


And this person is not alone. Are you next?



Read on to find out how.



Love,

Kathryn

I Cannot Sleep


One recent email cracked me up.



Dear Kathryn, 

I’m 3 weeks into a romance just like you describe. I am exhausted. This guy isevery single thing that I want. 

I’m so worried he will slip away that I’ve got insomnia. It’s been a whirlwind, and he says all of the right things.


He cannot seem to be without me for too long. 


Is this too good to be true? Help!



This is what we call a “quality problem,” one we’d all love to have, right?



And it’s very typical of those who do my work. I get letters like this often.



If you haven’t had soulmate love yet, when it comes, it can freak you out.



If it’s so terrifying, this uncovers a problem.Those who have a hard time accepting their good are NOT UP TO SPEED with it.



Yes, they still get their love – as evidenced by my client who ended up with a panic attack in the emergency room thinking her love was leaving her while he was cooking up a proposal.



However, you can expedite your journey to love by being wide open to that One who will blow every other romance you’ve had out of the water.



Here’s how:



1. Build yourself up. The more you feel deserving of love, someone perfect in your eyes, the quicker (s)he will come and the less rattled you will be when your soulmate arrives.





2. Get used to the idea. Start imagining this person in your life now. When you make what you want more real to you than your present situation, it can’t help but come. And you will also get more sleep as you begin dating your One :-)



3. Let go of the fears. Angst, nervousness, desperation – these are major delays to love. If you want love quickly, you must get rid of these, and find the faith that will put your love life into warp speed.




Heartbreak Corner: Revenge




I just read a book called Gone Girl, and it’s all about revenge. What a waste of time revenge is! (Though the book is a real page turner)



It’s very common when you break up to want revenge. Seeking revenge -- even a little justice or closure

-- can seem empowering.



But here’s the hitch. Revenge is a way to fan the flames of attachment. It’s still focusing on the person you need to release.



And worse, plotting revenge, seeking closure or justice keeps you bogged down. You are not open to the love awaiting you as long as you focus on your ex.



Revenge is in the opposite direction of the love you want.



It is critical that you let go and move on no matter how gripping the attachment might be.



Undergoing a release process and then refocusing is the only way to go – if you really want your soulmate (who will make you forget your ex).




Try my Releasing a Person work (book, CD or download) -- which is inexpensive & effective. People swear by it.


In a Relationship? No One Wins an Argument


Even soulmates have a disagreement from time to time. Stuff comes up, because you are still two people with sometimes differing agendas, wounds you are healing, needs and wants.



The last chapter of my book Love Will Find You lays out some "Fair Fight Rules".



It’s good to agree that you’ll fight fair when something comes up.



But better still . . . what if you decided to nip an argument in the bud and try something else?



The problem with arguments is that they carry an energy of opposition. Both parties get into a mindset where they have to triumph.



No one wins an argument. The emotional toll, the ill will – everyone loses.



Here’s a higher way to deal with a brewing argument.



1. The minute that you feel an argument coming, stop in your tracks.



2. Try to understand what your love is really saying. Often, it’s something like “I love you, and I’m scared.”



3. Point out that the two of you are starting to argue, and that you don’t want that.



4. Suggest that you guys take a breather, and write down what you want.



5. Then, hug and quietly discuss what has come up with no win-or-lose attitude. Softness, vulnerability uncover the real issues and the underlying need for love & understanding.
