Stop saying sorry if you want to say thank you: A seriously insightful cartoon

Voices of Female Celebrities on Body Image - Providence Life Coaching & Reiki Counseling

Stop saying sorry if you want to say thank you: A seriously insightful cartoon. We often apologize, assuming that people will appreciate our politeness and good manners. But in most cases, the other party is much more pleased to hear words of gratitude from you rather than an apology. Talented illustrator Yao Xiao, using everyday situations as inspiration, helps to explain why "thank you" is sometimes better than "I’m sorry" in this cartoon. We at Bright Side thought it really made sense and just had to share it with you. Take a look.

How To Listen to Your Intuition

Providence Life Coach Life Lessons Featured on Good Enough Mother!
When you are trying to make an important decision, everyone you ask in some form or another will recommend, "Listen to your intuition". This is excellent advice, but often not helpful.

The Difference Between Being Present and Self-Absorbed

Providence Holistic Counseling Services- Helping, Fixing or Serving?
It is easy to be confused about the difference between being present and self-absorbed. Current New Age, pop psychology and self-help literature make them appear to be the same. This is far from the truth. In my experience both personal and professional, there are several differences between being present and self-absorbed. The two that feel most significant are; 1) being present creates a spirit and mindset of service to others and 2) when we are present, we are aware of our inner experiences on many levels AND what is happening around us. When we are self-absorbed, the rest of the world takes a backseat to our own experiences and our own needs/wants/preferences.   The Difference Between Being Present and Self-Absorbed - Providence Holistic Counseling Services - illusion of separateness rich that hang ...
