I was talking to a fellow the other day who told me the story of his “almost golf career”. Apparently he was very good. Not just very good, very very good. He played pro golf in the far east, from Japan, to Singapore to Australia. He was that good.
But when he tried to break into the PGA, or the Professional Golf Association ranks, he suddenly came up short. Not that he couldn’t play at their level, but as he freely admits, his thoughts stopped him.
You see, when he was a young boy growing up in Canada, he played hockey, and he was pretty good at it. But he was never

If you do a Google Search for “the trouble with men”, you will find first and foremost, the words “Erectile Dysfunction”. But that’s not the trouble with men that I want to talk about.
The trouble I’m talking about is that the majority of men believe that growth and maturity are signs of weakness. I see this again and again where the woman in a relationship reaches a point where she wants to grow, to become more than what she has been, but the man sees it as a sign of weakness. And this is not a middle age crisis I’m talking about, but a natural evolution of the human spirit.
It is only normal to want meaning in your life, to want more than just…. Read More

Let’s call this post, the “Awful Truth”. A recent poll commissioned by the Vancouver Sun has said what we already thought but wouldn’t say out loud.
So here it is: “A new poll of 7,600 men has found that half of men would dump their girlfriend if she gained weight, according to the Vancouver Sun.”
Men: would you really dump your girlfriend for gaining weight?

The old me was comfortable where it was, and yet I knew that I couldn’t stay in this place. I knew that I had to get going, but there was a lot of inner resistance to moving on. And it wasn’t just inner resistance that was stopping me. There was family, my high school friends and the comfort of feeling “at home”.

It is now official. Emotional Pain is no different than physical pain.
Science has finally confirmed it.
The study, which was published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, illuminates the role that feelings of rejection and other emotional trauma can play in the development of chronic pain disorders such as fibromyalgia, Kross says. And, he adds, it raises interesting questions about whether treating physical pain …

We take for granted so many aspects of life, that we become immune to the beauty all around us.
Well, I recently read the blog, Bumpyboobs.com where Catherine, in her recovery from some brutal side-effects of chemotherapy is able to walk to work on her own power.

I had a client the other day who asked my why the calcium supplement she was taking wasn’t as good as the one I recommended. Her calcium was 1,000 mg of calcium. My recommended type of calcium was only 400 mg if calcium.
We need calcium, but there is a difference between one type of calcium and the next. It is not what is written on the bottle that makes for a good calcium, and the packaging, while may be very attractive has nothing to do with how good it is for you. Click to read more…

After being in business for over 30 years now, I was commenting to a colleague of mine how I wished we had done some things differently. “Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda” was her reply. And yes, that said it all. If we could turn back time, just think of all the mistakes we could have avoided. Hindsight is so powerful, isn’t it?
But that comment made me realize …

That has to be one of the best quotes I have seen in a long time. I wish I said it first, but it is by George Eliot. But what a profound meaning to this.
It is never too late, so never, ever give up. When I heard this quote, I first thought of Henry Ford, of the Ford automobile fame. Did you know that Henry Ford was…

Tony and I have been building Awakening Potentials for over thirty years and it’s been a long road. So much has changed. Our company name, our location, our focus, our techniques …
Treatments have become consultations, and our office has grown from a basic Chiropractic clinic to something far more powerful.
So it’s funny when people ask what I do, because how can I best explain that we change people’s lives? And how exactly do we change them? Do we look at financial profiles? No. Do we remodel living rooms? No. Do we deliver No.
