Flowing with Moontime: Honoring the Rhythm of Menstruation by Jeanine Marie Austin, Ph.D. (Hypnosis and Life Coaching)

Posted Fri, 03/05/2010 - 18:22 by Dr. Jeanine

“Moontime is the period of menstruation; it is widely believed that women are more powerful or, in some tribes, contaminated during this particular period” (The Free Dictionary).

Since my years as a teenager, I’ve noticed that women generally do not see their time of menstruation as a blessing but instead an inconvenience, an obstacle or even a curse. I wonder how our experiences of our menstrual periods would be different if we saw this time of month as sacred, a blessing or maybe even to be revered and honored.

Will Getting What You Want Make You Happy? By Dr. Jeanine Marie Austin (Life Coach and Hypnotherapist)

“Forget your ideas of good and bad, forget your ideas of right or wrong, forget this Course, and come with empty hands unto your God.” A Course in Miracles

Most of us are often tempted to think that getting what we want will make us happy. Even though upon reflection we can recall perhaps hundreds of our own personal experiences where we have desired something, brought it into manifestation and were either displeased with the ultimate result, nonplussed, bored or maybe just not gratified in any deep way and we were on to the next thing.

Being True to Ourselves vs. Comparing Ourselves Unfavorably to Others

Posted Mon, 02/22/2010 - 10:37 by Dr. Jeanine

“The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely”~By Carl Jung

It may be tempting for us to compare ourselves with others. We often do this to see how we measure up. If we conclude that we don’t measure up, we may wonder, “Shouldn’t I be living a bigger, more successful, more expansive life?”

Happy Fat Tuesday ~ Mardi Gras! Let’s Celebrate the Juiciness of Life

Posted Tue, 02/16/2010 - 10:03 by Dr. Jeanine

Many times in life we find ourselves forgetting to really celebrate. Fat Tuesday, also known as Mardi Gras, is the celebration the day before Ash Wednesday. It is a time of decadence, a last hurrah perhaps, before the season of Lent begins.

Maybe we are busy, preoccupied or even just plain stressed out and we forget to stop and smell the roses along the way of life. Fat Tuesday reminds us of the juiciness and celebratory aspects of life that we can tend to forget.

Celebrating Girlfriends! By Dr. Jeanine (Hypnosis and Life Coaching for Women)

Posted Sat, 02/13/2010 - 12:36 by Dr. Jeanine

I don't know what I would do without my girlfriends. When we are crying over some romantic situation gone bad (now forgotten!) our girlfriends push our tangled hair out of our swollen and tear stained face and remind us how great we are. In these instances, our true friends hold a sacred space for us while we cannot and remind us of all the truths that we hold dear but just can't remember in the moment.

Healing the Pain of a Broken Heart (Dr. Jeanine Marie Hypnosis and Life Coaching)

"This is a good sign, having a broken heart. It means we have tried for something.” Eat Pray Love ~ Elizabeth Gilbert

Most people would agree the pain of a broken heart is one of the most challenging injuries to endure. Most of us know that the pain of a broken heart literally hurts physically. The sadness often permeates our minds, bodies and spirits.

Relationships ~ Tricky but Necessary by Dr. Jeanine (Hypnosis and Life Coaching for Women Worldwide)

Posted Fri, 02/05/2010 - 13:42 by Dr. Jeanine

Inevitably, in my coaching sessions with women the question gets asked “How can I love and connect deeply, but still stay true to myself?”

It as if we are going in two directions when we enter into romantic relationships, we intend a Divine connection but we also want our sacred individuality. We dance between these desires, often frustrating ourselves and our partners.

Twin Flames by Dr. Jeanine (Hypnosis and Life Coaching)

Posted Sat, 01/30/2010 - 16:17 by Dr. Jeanine

The more we embrace our own Divinity, the more our twin flame will be able to manifest in our lives and resonate with our own developed Divinity. We don't need to have anxious knuckles on this process or force the manifestation. The attraction and alliance will be a natural and organic process. We attract what we are. Rather than forcing this attraction from the outside, we acknowledge this is an inside job.

Awaken Your Consciousness to Invite a Joyful Worldview

Posted Mon, 01/25/2010 - 09:56 by Dr. Jeanine

Many of us have come to believe that our worldly experiences are born from our perceptions. Moreover, many now believe that it is the inner world which is mirrored in the outer world. While some people believe that we create by doing in the world via outwardly motivated strategy and effort, perhaps because of the metaphysical ideology explained in the movies The Secret and What the Bleep Do We Know? , many people now desire to shift their attention, awareness and ultimately awaken their consciousness to affect a divinely inspired life.

The Dream ~ Happy Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day

Posted Sun, 01/17/2010 - 12:07 by Dr. Jeanine

I was born in August of 1965 in the sweltering heat of Opelika, Alabama. Perhaps surprisingly, the year 1965 and the state of Alabama were to be auspicious for The Civil Rights Movement.

In 1965, the Selma, Alabama to Montgomery, Alabama marches were three marches that marked the peak of the United States Civil Rights Movement. Many prominent leaders were involved in these marches, which were born from the voting rights movement, including Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Hosea Williams.
