Fall is officially here, and we are loving the cooler weather here in Texas.
Weโre still having some 90-degree days, but evenings are chilly and Makena is busy decorating her house with as many pumpkins as her husband Sunny will let her buy! ๐
Our Aliveness Masteryโข certification is in its 3rd week, and it is such a delight to be working with the amazing women in the program.
Every Monday, they share their MIRACLES from the past week (anything amazing that happened to them they consider to be a miracle) in our WhatsApp thread โย and itโs been truly heart-warming to hear about their wins and breakthroughs already:
- Two women signed on new clients out of the blue
- One made a new friend (someone she previously didnโt connect with) โย using the communication skills she is learning in the program
- And they are ALL learning to watch for and โfollow the alivenessโ in the people around them!
We thought it would be fun to share this coaching skill with you today โย so YOU TOO can start learning to follow the aliveness of the people around you.
Common results include:
- Deeper conversations with your loved ones
- Feeling more connected to everyone you talk to
- Building trust in your personal & professional relationships
- Feeling MORE energized from your interactions (rather than depleted)
- Getting to know the people around you in a deeper way
Hereโs how it worksโฆ
STEP 1: When youโre in a conversation with someone โย pay attention to their eyes. As youโre talking, simply notice: Where do they โlight up?โย
This is where you actually see more light come into the eyes. They look brighter, more animated, and you might even feel a shift in their energy.
STEP 2 (OPTIONAL): If itโs appropriate, you might reflect back: โWow, you really light up when you talk about that!โ This simple reflection can be powerful for the person you are speaking with.
STEP 3: Follow the alivenessโฆ Ask curious, open-ended questions around whatever topic lit them up. For example, if they lit up around sailing you might ask, โWhere in the world would you most love to go sailing?โ
The more you follow the thread of their aliveness, the more lit up and engaged people will become.
Of course, thereโs a lot more to this practice that we teach in the program. But even this simplified version will be powerful if you go out and apply it.
Practice this with 3 people this week, and write back to us to let us know how it went.
We look forward to hearing from you!
