Today we ended up talking about food a lot … so much, in fact, that we completely lost track of the time, and our session ended unexpectedly, surprising both of us! Kath has a history of not feeling good about her cooking, but these sessions have helped her to rediscover her creative and exploring spirit, […]

Day 17 – The Amplification Experiment
Today I wanted to do an experiment with amplification of energy as described in the movie, The Celestine Prophesy. The movie claims that if two people keep sending energy to each other, the energy amplifies. So Kath and I experimented for about 15 minutes sending energy to each other. We both reported that while we […]
Day 16 – Leaving Introversion
Today, Kath told me about a breakthrough she had in cooking a traditional Filipino dish that had given her problems in the past. The breakthrough made her feel more confident about her cooking skills. I told her about some of my experiences growing up. She asked me about dancing and how I became involved with […]
Day 15 – Comparing Notes
Kath and I compared notes about what happened over the weekend. I told her about a story I was writing for the project’s marketing campaign. I also told her about how I had come to realize that we were trying to reach people with this project who feel overwhelmed and stuck in negative thought patterns. […]
Day 14 – The Daily Grind
Kath and I compared notes today about what our day-to-day, hour-to-hour experiences are like. There is an energetic flow to our days, and we are both recognizing how we tend to be ruled by our predominant focus patterns, but also how we are shifting those patterns in small ways by doing these sessions. Her cat, […]
Day 13 – The Hard Challenges
Kath and I decided to take a different approach to these sessions. We decided to really zero in on the “hard” stuff going on in our lives today to try to change how we think and feel about them. Kath is dealing with something medical. It’s not life-threatening or anything like that, but it’s painful […]
Day 12 – Individual Traits Wheel
Kath came up with yet another “wheel” game, this time a wheel that displayed a number of one-word personality traits. The words that came up for us were “creativity”, “passionate”, and “strong”. I told her the story of how my first grade teacher told my mother that I would never be very creative. I think […]
Day 11 – Free Form Conversation
No games today. No planned activities. We just talked and shared. Sometimes, that’s the best thing to do. One thing we both noticed is that I’m helping her as much as she is helping me. So even though I’m paying her for these sessions, we are both benefitting from them. Which is exactly the way […]
Day 10 – Inspirational Quote Wheel
Kath came up with another game today. She’s really good at that! This game involved a “wheel for fortune” type of wheel that had inspirational quotes embedded on each of the pie slices on the wheel. She spun the wheel twice revealing quotes for us to think about. Then she asked me to express what […]
Day 9 – Free Form Conversation
Today’s session was free-form. We didn’t have a particular topic. We just talked about stuff that felt good to us. I shared some stories about things going on in my life. There’s the marketing campaign for this service. There was some conversation about the gardening service business. I also talked about how I was beginning […]
