The Lorraine Johnson Life Coaching Blog:

If a swan comes across your path, it is said to herald the development of awareness, intuition, grace, healing, and transformation. Swans, as a totem represent the awakening of one’s inner beauty, the ability to bridge it to the outer world, and the power to accept change.

Please enjoy, make use of, and share our blog containing tips, ideas, thoughts, practices, and perspectives on living authentically… who we are at our core, as opposed to who we’ve been told we should be by well-meaning family, friends, the media and society.

How Your Body Helps You Make Decisions

How Your Body Helps You Make Decisions

I just didn’t want to work on this particular Monday, yet I had so much to get done.  I had a long to-do list for the day, but…I wanted to GET OUT, my soul longed for adventure and to see something new or enchanting or enlivening.  I could almost taste it I was so...

EXPOSING THE UGLY SIDE OF SELF CARE

EXPOSING THE UGLY SIDE OF SELF CARE

Self-care is a term that has been around the coaching industry for a long, long time.  It’s now become popular in general circles, but what does it really mean? I can tell you it is more than manicures, pedicures, massages, and/or treating yourself to something...

HOW BEING MINDFUL CAN HELP YOU SPOT AND MASTER YOUR LIFE-LESSONS

HOW BEING MINDFUL CAN HELP YOU SPOT AND MASTER YOUR LIFE-LESSONS

 I was stretching, the other day because I had done exactly what I tell my clients NOT to do, --over commit. I was so stressed about having done so that my back went out and life showed up by rendering my chiropractor at a conference all week.  How was I going to get...

HOW MULTITASKING UNDERMINES YOU

HOW MULTITASKING UNDERMINES YOU

With so much to do and so many tools with which to do what needs to be done, multitasking (doing several tasks at the same time) has become automatic --but at what cost? I was the queen of multitasking at one point in my life.  I was the busy Vice President of a...

HOW TO BE TREATED THE WAY YOU DESERVE TO BE TREATED

DO YOU KNOW THE WHO OF YOU

In a society, that spends so much more time, money, and energy on what we do than on who we are, we're often rendered outwardly successful but internally unfulfilled and unhappy.  HINT: career titles, family titles, community positions, and most of the ways we define...

WHAT YOUR CALENDAR SAYS ABOUT YOU

WHAT YOUR CALENDAR SAYS ABOUT YOU

I attended a retreat several years ago.  During one session, we were assigned the task of sticking little gold stars on all of the dates in our calendars where we'd done something just for ourselves.  Like I said, this was a few years ago and before we used our phones...

WHY COMPARING YOURSELF TO OTHERS IS A FOLLY

I just finished watching a webinar about the best use of social media to send out information to large email lists.  I learned a lot and it was useful, but they lost me when they taught how to compare my results with the results of others in my industry.  When will we...

WHICH IS IT: DO OPPOSITES ATTRACT OR DOES LIKE ATTRACT LIKE?

WHICH IS IT: DO OPPOSITES ATTRACT OR DOES LIKE ATTRACT LIKE?

Most of us have heard the saying, “Opposites attract.”  It’s also said, “Like attracts like.”  Okay, so…which is it?  Take the example of a married couple where one is a tightwad and the other a spendthrift.  On the surface, they're extreme opposites.  One spends...
