Long time friend to our network, amazing coach, and dynamic speaker… Gabrielle is in high demand from our members. Many remember her from our Own Your Power Retreats and our Biz Conference and now she’s back!
We have the pleasure to have her pass through on her national book tour to Miami to share with us some tips from her book.
Gabrielle Bernstein, a leading Gen Y motivational speaker and life coach, guides readers through her dynamic “ing” Equation: Rethinking + Moving + Receiving x 30 days = Changing. The ~ing Equation is designed to bulldoze negative thought patterns and create positive change, achieving this in 30 days of affirmations, physical activity, and meditation.
The author’s methodology is a sure-fire way to guide readers to“get out of their own way” and start loving—and fully living— life. The unique inclusion of physical activity helps readers to shift the way their body responds to their minds. Each activity offers an opportunity for the reader to experience a state of flow that cannot be accessed idly sitting in front of their computer screen.
Anything but a dry, how-to manual, Add More ing to Your Life is a fun, hip guide for a new generation.

Choose the words you sp
eak with carefully as they are more powerful than you know.
Words carry energy and this gives language its power and its potential to heal or hurt. Most of us can remember a time that someone sent a word our way, and it stuck with us. It may have been the first time we received a truly accurate compliment, or the time a friend or sibling called us a name, but either way it stuck. This experience reminds us that what we say has weight and power and that being conscious means being aware of how we use words.
The more conscious we become, the more we deepen our relationship to the words we use so that we speak from a place of actually feeling what we are saying. We begin to recognize that words are not abstract, disconnected entities used only to convey meaning; they are powerful transmitters of feeling.
For the next few days, you might want to practice noticing how the words you say and hear affect your body and your emotional state. Notice how the different communication styles of the people in your life make you feel. Also, watch closely to see how your own words come out and what affect they have on the people around you. You may notice that when we speak quickly, without thinking, or rush to get our ideas across, our words don’t carry the same power as when we speak slowly and confidently, allowing those receiving our words time and space to take them in. When we carefully listen to others before we speak, our words have more integrity, and when we take time to center ourselves before speaking, we truly begin to harness the power of speech. Then our words can be intelligent messengers of healing and light, transmitting deep and positive feelings to those who receive them.
Did you know your house can make you sick? I never realized how important fresh air was until I noticed everytime I visted someone I would get SICK. I thought it was a cold I was catching from the weather change (since I was traveling from Florida to NY) , but it turns out I am allergic to mold. I was diagnosed and then when I went back to their house I saw in the shower vents they were full of MOLD and lint.
Unfortunately, in many homes, especially apartment buildings there is only so much you can do. However, there are some tricks you can implement to clear the air in your home. I found a cool article to share with you all…so you can take a nice deep breath of fresh air in your home!

How can you protect them and still make your home the warm, welcoming place it’s always been? Sloan Barnett, author of Green Goes With Everything: Simple Steps to a Healthier Life and a Cleaner Planet, offers these suggestions.
