The Power of Enthusiasm

“WAY TO GO! Wow! That’s awesome!”

When was the last time someone said something like that to you?

Sallie, one of our Vibrancy Signature Coaches, was just telling us how she says this kind of thing to her 4 year old grandson, Alexander, two or more times an hour…accompanied by a thumbs-up or applause.

I used to get and give “Woo-hoos” every day, when I was training for the Olympics in diving. Throughout practice all the divers would whistle and cheer for each others’ great dives. We fed on all the enthusiasm and it kept us motivated to do our best and try to be the next one to earn some high-fives.

So WHERE IS THAT in our everyday adult lives??!

How many times a day do you get woo-hoo’d? Can you even remember the last time someone gave you a shot of enthusiasm, patted you on the back and told you how amazing you were and what a fantastic thing you’d just done?

Remember Miss Manners and all the rules she laid down about how to conduct ourselves in society? Wouldn’t it have been great if she’d decreed that it’s impolite NOT to fist-pump and thump someone on the back with a “Way to go!” whenever they did something well?

Can’t you just see it?…..You give a customer excellent service and afterward, when your peers or your boss don’t applaud you, you’d think, ‘Well, that was rude. You didn’t jump up and down about how awesomely I handled that customer. Hurrumph.’

But no, it’s not considered rude. It’s ‘normal’! You do what’s expected of you and people only notice when there’s a mistake. That’s not much of a motivation to do things better, much less enjoy the process.

 

Enthusiasm2

Should high-fiving enthusiasm be reserved only
for small kids and sporting events? No Way!

 

If the Power of Enthusiasm has been dampened down in your world, then here’s some of the effects you’re possibly feeling:

  • You drag yourself through your day with no juice coming from anywhere or anybody to make you feel like what you’re doing is worthwhile.
  • You contribute to the Starbuck’s fortune with all the espressos you buy just to get you through your week because your energy reserves are on empty.
  • You tank up on junk food to numb your melancholy.
  • You lose friendships because you’re so absorbed in your own misery and lack of vitality that you just aren’t much fun to be around.
  • You feel old, dull, and critical of anyone else that has the audacity to get excited about ‘inconsequential’ and ‘childish’ things.

But imagine what it would be like if you were giving and
receiving lots of woo-hoos every day?

 

Doesn’t reading that last statement just perk up your energy right way? Your Blue Green cells are probably getting pumped up just thinking about being showered with accolades on a daily basis rather than criticisms (or even just plain neutrality).

You might:

  • Feel more loved and appreciated….like you’re not out on some island all by yourself, but that what you do is noticed and recognized by others around you.
  • Engage with people and with your life more deeply, realizing that there’s lots to get excited about now that it isn’t ‘illegal’ to express it.
  • Begin to wake up others around you with your own ecstatic outbursts, expressive comments, and all that vitality you start letting out of your bag.
  • Make more friends by recognizing their accomplishments and motivating them to put their best foot forward!
  • Start craving healthy nutritious food, because you just feel like keeping that good vibe going throughout your whole body.

How about you? Are you ready to get on the Blue Green train to bringing more enthusiasm into your life?

2 ways to wake up your Blue Green Power of Enthusiasm:

 

#1: Say or sing this proclamation until you believe it with your entire being:
“I’m enthusiastic!”

#2: Take 7 – 21 drops of Enthusiasm Vibrancy Essence daily. This remedy will align you with the energetic frequency of Enthusiasm, and help you break out and EXPRESS yourself!

Guess what! You really don’t have to grow up!
It’s A-Okay to keep your excited
kid self alive no matter how hold you are!

 

“Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years…
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”

Woo-Hoo to you!!

Have More Energy Naturally With The Power of Energizing

Posted by Jamie | Posted in Accomplishment, Energy | Posted on 29-07-2014

If all is well, you have plenty of “get up and go” to get things moving in your life when you want to. Who needs stimulants when you have enough energy on tap to launch yourself and your pet projects into action at a moment’s notice?!

So how is it for you? Could any of these be you talking?

  • “There’s so much I need to do, but honestly, I’m just tired all the time.”
  • “I know I should go to the health club and work out, but my couch is so comfy and there’s some TV shows on tonight that I really like…maybe I’ll exercise tomorrow.”
  • “I keep talking about taking that dance class (or karate class or tennis lesson, etc), but never get around to it. It’s hard to get up the energy to start something new.”
  • “I used to love to travel, but now it’s just seems too intense to deal with all the planning, packing, airports, car rentals, and hotels. Just thinking about it is exhausting.”
  • “My husband and I are like two old rocks stuck in the mud. Our life is just the same old thing, day in and day out. I don’t remember the last time we ventured out of our comfort zone and did something different.”
  • “I never get any of my ideas off the ground. I quit before I even start, because it takes a boost of energy and focus that I can’t seem to find.”
  • “I live for my coffee. Without it, I’m a zombie. Nothing would ever get done.”

What does it look like when those fires get going?
Ask Coconut!

 

Coconut Swimming1

A few years ago, when we would walk our 2 old dogs, we realized that they went so slow there was no way we could count it as exercise. It was barely a gentle stroll.

Then, our Saffron girl, Coconut, came into our lives. Now, every night, the minute our forks have been put down, the prancing starts. The circles. Or staring that alternates with nose butts.

She’s a white blur flying up the stairs. She brings down our socks and flings them into the air. She goes and stands on our shoes…more staring. “It’s time for our walk, so get off your lazy butts!” she seems to say.

Walking, running, ball chasing, geese chasing, sometimes deer chasing, play fighting with her new daughter, Sochi. Then it’s time for “diving dog”.

We throw a stick or the ball into the lake, she runs in after it a foot or so, then launches herself from the muddy edge up into the air. Sometimes she flies 2 feet up and 5 feet out. (We’ve got to get it on video.)

One time we swore we’d wear her out and not quit until she did. After 40 throws, she starting running back faster and barking at us until we threw it again. At 70 throws she started spinning in circles until we’d throw it. At 100 we gave up.

There’s just no end to the energy when you are truly connected to Saffron.

 

Fire up those engines and
launch yourself into life!

 

When you’re connected to the Saffron Power of Energizing, you’ll be saying:

  • “I’m so fired up I can’t wait to get to the gym and move my body!”
  • “No more thinking about it. I’m ready to act! When is my first dance class?”
  • “It wasn’t all that hard to get this trip together! I remember now why I’ve always loved traveling!”
  • “My husband and I are feeling young and alive, doing something new and different almost every day! We even have energy for….well, you get the idea…”
  • “I’m so excited to launch my ideas into action with a big whoosh of energy. It’s such fun to see them take shape!”
  • “Who needs coffee? Once I get moving on something I care about, the energy just seems to multiply.”

2 ways to shift your Saffron Power of Energizing into gear and have more energy naturally:

 

#1: Tired of worshiping at the altar of Starbucks? Next time you notice that you’re lacking in the energy department, sing this affirmation out loud or to yourself 7 times:

“I am focused and initiate movement!”

Then let yourself take the first step…and the next…and the next…and off you go!

#2: Keep a bottle of Energize Vibrancy Essence handy this week. Every time you notice that you’re stuck on the couch and can’t get up, grab your bottle and take 7 drops. Get a good grip on those armrests and launch yourself up and out into the world. We need you out here!

Connect with your inner powerhouse!

Express Yourself Boldly with the Lapis Blue Power of Aliveness

Posted by Jamie and Chaya | Posted in Energy | Posted on 10-01-2014

Think of all the people you know who seem to be ALIVE and EXPRESSIVE!  Included in your list might be your favorite performers and singers, powerful public speakers you’ve seen, any out-there friends you have who relish being “on stage” – and maybe yourself in your more dynamic moments. This is the Power of Aliveness – moving mountains of energy where ever it flows. How fully is it flowing through you?

  • Would you like to be able to speak in front of an audience without feeling like you’re going to throw up?
  • Do you long to sing, but are too embarrassed to let anyone hear you?
  • Have you wondered what it would be like to be in a play, but think you’d never be able to perform on stage?
  • Do you suffer from depression, apathy, and a general feeling of emptiness?
  • Have you been looking for a way to break through your shyness?

Aliveness2 smaller

It’s time to access your natural charisma!

You were born to be expressive, magnetic, and dynamic in your own unique way. People are just waiting for your energy to burst forth. They want to feel enlivened by watching you and listening to you. Let’s choose to believe they’re rooting for you!

Buzzing through your cells is a frequency of energy called The Power of Aliveness. It will give you access to all the irresistibly dazzling X Factor you desire. You just have to be willing to claim it.

 

So, go ahead, step into the spotlight!

When you’re connected to your Power of Aliveness the embarrassment, butterflies and shyness will melt away and….

  • You’ll light up any stage or presentation with your dynamic expression and natural charisma. No more nervousness!
  • Your singing voice will come forth, and with it the courage to share it with other people.
  • You’ll have more physical and emotional strength, as well as energy, because you’ll be more connected to your core life energy (your chi).
  • Talking with others, interacting, and expressing your true self will be effortless and fun.

 

2 ways to wake up your Power of Aliveness:

#1: Are you tired keeping your light hidden under a bushel all the time?  Weary of all the effort you spend on NOT expressing who you really are? Here’s an affirmation that just might open up the floodgates and give you the boost you need to crawl out from under your favorite rock:

“I express my life energy powerfully!”

We recommend saying and singing it, 7 times daily until you find yourself gravitating onto the stage of life and belting out your own song (literal or metaphorical) for everyone to hear.

 

#2: Take a bottle of Aliveness Vibrancy Essence everywhere you go this week. Whenever you notice that you are holding back, afraid to show up and be your vibrant self, take 7 drops.

Then confidently step forward and let the natural life energy that lurks inside begin to flow out of you in some small or grand way. It doesn’t really matter what it is, or how you express it…it just matters that you let it out.

You’re one of a kind ~ there’s no one else that can express what you have to express quite like you!  The more you do, the more alive and free you will feel!

 

No more holding back!!

“WAY TO GO! Wow! That’s awesome!”

When was the last time someone said something like that to you?

Sallie, one of our Vibrancy Signature Coaches, was just telling us how she says this kind of thing to her 4 year old grandson, Alexander, two or more times an hour…accompanied by a thumbs-up or applause.

Thumbs UpI used to get and give “Woo-hoos” every day when I was training for the Olympics in diving. Throughout practice all the divers would whistle and cheer for each others’ great dives.

How many times a day do you get woo-hoo’d? Can you even remember the last time someone gave you a shot of enthusiasm, patted you on the back and told you how amazing you were and what a fantastic thing you’d just done?

Remember Miss Manners and all the rules she laid down about how to conduct ourselves in society? Wouldn’t it have been great if she’d decreed that it’s impolite NOT to fist-pump and thump someone on the back with a “Way to go!” whenever they did something well?

Can’t you just see it?…..You give a customer excellent service and afterward, when your peers or your boss don’t applaud you, you’d think, ‘Well, that was rude. You didn’t jump up and down about how awesomely I handled that customer. Hurrumph.’

But no, it’s not considered rude. It’s ‘normal’! You do what’s expected of you and people only notice when there’s a mistake. That’s not much of a motivation to do things better, much less enjoy the process.

 

Should high-fiving enthusiasm be reserved only

  • You tank up on junk food to numb your melancholy.
  • You lose friendships because you’re so absorbed in your own misery and lack of vitality that you just aren’t much fun to be around.
  • You feel old, dull, and critical of anyone else that has the audacity to get excited about ‘inconsequential’ and ‘childish’ things.

 

But imagine what it would be like if you were giving and
 receiving lots of woo-hoos every day?

Doesn’t reading that last statement just perk up your energy right way? Your Blue Green cells are probably getting pumped up just thinking about being showered with accolades on a daily basis rather than criticisms (or even just plain neutrality).

  • Make more friends by recognizing their accomplishments and motivating them to put their best foot forward!
  • Start craving healthy nutritious food, because you just feel like keeping that good vibe going throughout your whole body.

We’ve decided to walk our talk and sharpen our Power of Enthusiasm around here!

Here’s our pledge:  Every day this week we’re going to wear stickers around the office and house that keep track of how many times we’ve given a “Woo-Hooo” and how many times we’ve received one. Our goal will be 3 of each every day. We’re VERY EXCITED about trying this! Watch our Facebook page for our results!

How about you? Are you ready to get on the Blue Green train to bringing more enthusiasm into your life?

 

2 ways to wake up your Blue Green Power of Enthusiasm:
 
#1: Tired of that old serious adult routine that has taken over your life?
Here’s an affirmation that will help shake loose this old worn out response pattern that you may be stuck in:

“I’m enthusiastic!”

We recommend that you sing this 7 times out loud or to yourself in the mirror every morning…and mean it!  Give yourself a little applause and fist pump too. Then watch all the opportunities show up in your day that really do excite you, and give yourself permission to express it in a very Blue Green way! Shout, jump, high-five someone – go a little crazy (by most people’s standards).

#2: Keep the Enthusiasm Vibrancy Essence nearby this week for those times when you feel like your excitement is tied up in a tiny little box, instead of exploding out of you effervescently. Take 14 drops under your tongue daily or when you want to break out and EXPRESS yourself!

 

Guess what! You really don’t have to grow up!
It’s A-Okay to keep your excited
kid self alive no matter how hold you are!

 

Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years…
 Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.

Woo-Hoo to you!!
