Pausing long enough to notice, to hear, to heal
Posted by dotcalm at 6/19/2008 8:52 AM and is filed under Empowerment,Teresa D Huggins,SelfCare,Inspired Focus 
There is a surge of breakthroughs that have happened over the past couple months...
Luckily I have my friends/life coaches Claire, from Inspired Focus, and Teresa to help me pause and reflect on the successes, releases the things that didn't serve me, and decide upon the next course of action. I recommend that everyone find at least one person that can help them slow down and regroup.
Teresa's book about "Pausing...Long Enough to Notice", is due to be released next month; and she's obviously the inspiration for this post.
Recently I have had a number of entrepreneurial friends and business associates lose family members, deal with a personal health scare, or suffer a loss of business due to a natural disaster. I have been moved by their stories, amazed by their resiliency, and inspired by the love that continues to flow from them despite it all...
I want to encourage you today to reach out to someone you know who's been dealing with a loss and let them know what you admire something about them. By you making time to notice and speak it, you can open a space for them to pause to receive it - and in that pause they may find joy, or peace, or stillness... they may find what they need to move forward to the next minute, the next hour, the next day...

I am blessed! Teresa has been helpful in so many ways, and I have learned a lot from her just by conversing.
Her book, Pausing Long Enough to Notice, is nearly ready to be released, and her summer camp ended last week, I went to dinner with the 50 young adults and had a great time learning how that week has changed their lives!
Teresa's site is here, and her daughter's site for the Leader for Life program is excellent!
Teresa also has stories in Jack Canfield's Chick Soup series.
Speaking of talented - Julie Falatico! She's a jazz singer that I'm creating a cd cover for - I should have song samples up there soon.
Teresa introduced me to Julie - yup - I'm blessed!
