How To Ask For Help… Let’s Play a Game!

A humble request for help!

I have been taught that my clients will only go as deeply as I am willing to go.  I believe that if I am to advise you to ask for help when you need it, then I must logically humble myself and ask for help when I need it.  So, I sent an e-mail a couple days ago desperately asking for help.  Thanks to Sauna Lady, I am consciously choosing to reach out to you to get what I need.  My intention is that we all get something that we need through asking for help from at least one other person.  Let’s make it fun and call it a game.  Sometimes all we need is permission to do something new, and  I formally give you permission to ask for help!

Asking for help with a twist!

This is a way for you to change your beliefs about asking for help.  It’s a way for you to have a different experience of asking for what you want or need.  This is a way for you to consciously ask for help and then pay attention to what happens inside your body.  It’s a way of changing your entire life for the better, just through making a simple request and then paying attention.

What Does Being Naked In A Sauna Have To Do With Manifesting Your Purpose?

I joined Michelle at the Y for a Kundalini Yoga class and a trip to the sauna today.  Sweating is something I usually avoid, but I knew it was my next step.  We sat in silence; our breath was the only sound playing back and forth between us and another woman sitting on the top shelf.  After about fifteen minutes, I rubbed myself down with the towel and turned to leave.  The nameless woman struggled to lower herself and refused my assistance and so I quietly left.  The door to the sauna opened less than one minute later, and I heard Michelle calmly asking for me by name.   I was able to squeeze around the opened door, as I realized this was more of a plea for help.

The floor of the sauna was tiled, wet, and slippery and I could see that Michelle was physically holding this woman up.  After making my way around the door, I laid towels down to provide traction for our feet and I helped take some of the weight off of Michelle.  This woman (I still don’t know her name) was not able to get her feet under herself and so we slowly lowered her to the ground.  She was chanting, “I just overdid it.  I just over did it.”  She thought she would be alright; she wasn’t convincing me.

See How Easily You Can Irritate Others While Living Your Divine Purpose!

My purpose is to empower others!

When I realized that coaching is one way that I live my purpose, I started coaching everyone who would be coached. I gifted people with pro-bono sessions every working day. I coached on the phone and walking down the street. I sat at tables in restaurants with other people in the hopes of coaching someone. I coached homeless people in the park!

I even coached Michelle before we started working together. Can you believe that? I met her in a parking lot and wham! Instant client. Maybe she’ll write a post about her experience of being empowered by me (hint hint).

I made one serious mistake!

I coached my partner, my sweetie. In the beginning it was fun, but after a while I started hearing things like, “Okay, Coach!” and, “Where’s my girlfriend?” You get the picture? 2 O’clock in the morning if he wanted to talk, I coached. Danger! Danger! Will Robinson…..

This, I found out became an irritation instead of a joy. Well, I had to look underneath what was happening. Going back to my purpose, which is to empower, I found that coaching someone without asking permission was dis-empowering. Woah! Not me! I am here to empower. To be doing the exact opposite was an eye opener. Read more
