Discovering Your Soul Purpose.
A soul print is made up of your dreams and your destiny lived and conscious and not yet conscious. It is made of your past and all of your yesterday's. It is your successes, and especially your failures. It is your fear of fragility and vulnerability, as well as your grandiosity and larger than life yearnings. Your soul print is a song only you can sing the poem only you can write, and the way of being in the world, which is you and you alone. To impress your soul print, on the lips of reality is the highest goal of spiritual living.
Clients that have been coming in to work with me lately have been talking about wanting to know their soul purpose? What are they supposed to do here? Is there such a thing as a purpose? How can I be more service oriented or do something in the world that is more fulfilling. How to manage anxiety or have better communication with their partner, or family. To feel more intimate during sex and also just in general with the Earth and life. To trust. These are all things that I've been seeing over and over and over again. But it really came up strong this week and I just thought I'd share this to remind us of all of that there is no one perfect path to unleashing your soul print on the lips of this reality or being you in the fullest and greatest expression.

Avoiding Discomfort
Welcome to One Degree Shift series – Episode 6 – What not to do if you are sitting in the discomfort
Last week we introduced the challenge of sitting in discomfort – and what you can do in a positive way.
Let’s also talk about what not to do –
If you run from these discomforts they won’t go away and in fact they might grow and feel even bigger. Avoid “numbing” out to get rid of the feelings – drinking, eating, zoning out on social media. These activities don’t help you move forward, and you may even feel worse after them. Important to know that different people have different tolerance levels for discomfort. It can even be helpful to try to become more comfortable with discomfort in general by trying to be a person who is more willing to try new things. You can come face to face with the feeling of discomfort and learn to better recognize. All situations in life are temporary – remind yourself you won’t be in the discomfort forever.If you require something deeper, reach out for a session. I am here for you.

Sitting in the Discomfort
Welcome to One Degree Shift series – Episode 5 – Sitting in the Discomfort
When you start making one-degree shifts, you are very likely going to end up in a place of discomfort. Don’t let that make you stop or back up
Lets talk about how to sit in discomfort
Acknowledge the feelings associated with the discomfort – Anger? Sadness? Discouraged? Call these feelings out and let them know you know they are there. Connect with your body and recognize how these are showing up in your body –tightness in throat, unsettled stomach, pacing, Breathe deeply and reassure your body it is only temporary. The discomfort is a journey – the steep hill you have to climb to get the beautiful view of the lake Imagine a warm blanket being wrapped around you – and maybe even around the discomforting emotions. Talk to the discomfort like a child – let it know it is okay to go away Identify an act of self-care you can do to help yourself accept the discomfort – call a friend, Take a walk in nature.This is your challenge for today, make a one-degree shift in the form of self-care.

Are you proving yourself into paralysis?
So how do you get out of paralysis?
Basically, when you get into paralysis, you're proving yourself right about something that's future tripping, it hasn't happened yet, but you believe it's going to happen. It paralyzes you in the now and then you don't feel safe, you are stuck and don't do anything. You just created a conundrum in your mind and walked yourself out of action.
A lot of time paralysis is deep and needs a lot of work but let's talk today about some simple steps to break the paralysis.
Three steps to break paralysis
List out what you fear or what you feel is looming out there. Take 3 minutes and jot down the worst that can happen – but only 3 minutes Now imagine yourself having completed what you feel stuck around – you accomplished the big project at work, you are in the relationship you want. See yourself in success. Sit in that space Now come back and write down the one action you are going to take today.If you feel yourself getting stuck back in paralysis, keep repeating this process. Stay with that feeling of success. Keep seeing yourself in state of success. If you require something deeper, reach out for a session. I am here for you.

Why do you get paralyzed?
Today is the third episode of the One Degree Shift series – Episode 3 – Why do you get paralyzed?
Many people come to me because they feel “stuck” - and I don’t mean a little stuck I mean totally paralyzed. In this episode I share what a session is like, outline the invisible cage and give some tips to unlocking yourself from it. If you are really feeling stuck like many of my clients, I encourage you to seek help to assist you. You do not have to do this alone.
Do you feel totally stuck or paralyzed? Are you in a state of overwhelm? Is every aspect of your life demanding your attention and you don’t know where to start? Do you put off making small decisions and those things have stacked up on top of one another and now the pile of decisions is massive?Paralysis can come from FEAR. Instead of hiding and letting the FEAR keep you in paralysis, you can make a one degree shift™.
How do you know you are in paralysis?
Face, embrace and embody the cage.
What's going on? Meet the past Know the players Face what happened. Listen to your body Highlight the decision you made. Delete that from then until now Embody a whole new reality.When you are no longer locked in the fear or the paralysis. the shackles start to dissipate and melt away.

Celebrate The One Degree Shift™
Today is the second episode of the One Degree Shift series – Episode 2 – Celebrate The One Degree Shift™
Last week I shared with you the incredible power of focusing on just one degree shift – one degree of change, one tiny step. We sometimes the power of the one degree shift because we don’t celebrate it. We tell ourselves “not enough” “not enough” “not enough” Instead of beating yourself about not overhauling your life in one day keep looking at the one degree shift you have made. How about in your relationship? What is the one degree shift you are wanting? Think how much easier to talk to your partner and ask them for a small change. Key to remember is that one degree is action – it is moving – it is changing. Stop and write down five things – maybe more. What are you are looking to change. Pause for a minute Now pick just one. Just one. And focus on it. Do the same tomorrow and again just pick one. Not two, just one. Imagine your life if you did this every day for a year. 1 day, 1 degree shift..If you have questions or topic suggestions you can end them to getraw@drlisacooney.com and I’ll be happy to read them and use them for an upcoming episode!

Focus on Just One Degree
Today is the first episode of the One Degree Shift series – Episode 1 – Focus on Just One Degree
Often, we feel that we have to make drastic, dramatic shifts. But I want you to focus on just ONE DEGREE Did you know that when a plane is flying cross country, the pilot focuses on the tiniest of adjustments to keep the plane headed to its final destination? Pilots don’t make u turns and neither should you! Let’s take something really simple – you hate living in your messy house. Rather than trying to gut it from top to bottom. Just pick one space – it can even be a drawer if a room is too big – and go clean up that space. Then stop and relish in the way it looks and feels. Do you feel that? Hold on to that feeling. Now think about your life – what is your change you want. What is just one small thing you can do today to head in that direction. My challenge to you this week is to look for one-degree shifts and make them!.

Get Unstuck with the ROAR Method®
Do you feel stuck in your day-to-day life?
I made a decision a very long time ago, that no matter what my trauma, my story, my past, my present, no matter what was going on, I was going to take every situation and find the growth possibility.
So, no matter what is going on for you today, or at any moment, there's always a possibility. There's always a One Degree Shift™ that can change anything from heaviness, density, and stuckness into possibility, generation, and creation.
Join me while I show you how to use some of the tools of the ROAR Method® to move from being stuck to possibility.

A 1° Shift™, that's all it takes!
You may have heard me speaking of a 1° Shift™ before, but…. What is a One Degree Shift™? And why is it just 1°?
A One-degree shift™ is a huge change in the trajectory of your narrative. Is taking a step in the direction of your choice. Is doing something that works for you.
Imagine you’re a captain on the Nautilus and you change the trajectory 1°. The shift that you will create in the sea, is immense. That’s a great metaphor for you as the captain of your own life!
Now, how do you take a 1° Shift? Join me for this episode and get started!

Or what are the problems people face when they don’t say NO on time?
And more importantly, why do people struggle to say NO?
In this episode I'll be talking about this and how to change it so that you NEVER again have to say "yes" when you mean to say "no."

Help! I don't know what I want!
Over the past 25 years many of my clients around the world came to a private session or to my classes saying “help, I don’t know what I want!”
Do you feel that way too?
Maybe you lived your life up until the last few years of making everybody else and their realities your priority. Your boss, your kids, your family relationship, in everyday life you were doing for others and making other people's needs a priority.
When I got to that realization about myself doing that, which really was I was not living the life, the way I knew it was actually possible, or in a way that brought me joy, or in a way that made me wake up with a spring in my step.
I got to the place of asking me “how did I make this life, that I now dislike, so good in my mind?” And I became aware of the choice of change.
Get pen and paper, I’ll give you some questions you can ask and some exercises to start realizing what is it that you truly desire for your life.

We are FAMILY!
I have survived a week with my mother and my aunt! Why is this so important?
30 years ago, I left New York. I knew I was probably not going back and I knew that I had to let go of everything and everyone I knew, including my family in order to remove myself from what I would call toxicity.
With this very Raw and Real episode I hope to be an inspiration to be congruent with you and the life you would like to live. You know, I've got a family, just like you. I used to get driven crazy by family, just like you. I lived the drama, just like you. Not anymore. I pivoted and I changed the narrative. And you can do it too.

Trusting you... is it possible?
Today, let's talk about trusting you, and answer the question, is it possible?
First of all, there's an energetic trust, there's a physical trust, there's an emotional trust, there's a trust every day you get in your car and you drive that you're going to be fine, and you come home and all that. But what is it like to trust in yourself?
In this episode, I’ll go through my experience, past to present, as now I have moved from trusting in everyone else outside of myself to trusting in myself first and foremost, primary, and then just being who I truly am no matter what, just because I trust in myself.
Is this something you’re looking for? Here are some tools that I used and may work for you!

Mental Health: Stop Proving Your Worth
Stop proving your worth. Yes, I said it. Stop proving your worth! You are what you are, you're good at what you're good at, you're not so good at what you're not so good at. Does that make you less worthy? No! You're still worthy!
During the past 27 years I've been working with most of my clients (and myself) on the topic of worth and worthiness, unlovability, and feeling bad or wrong... and it's still current!
Join me, and let's discuss some possibilities to acknowledge your worth and stop proving that you're worthy!

Mental Health: How to keep going when everything goes wrong?
Have you ever had one of those days where you wish you didn’t get up? Is that your usual situation? Would you like to review that in order to take care of yourself?
And why does mental health matter?
It all can be changed. It’s mostly about your mindset. Will you let the outside defeat you? Or will you lead charge into your desires?
Join me and I’ll share tools to help you keep going, even when you feel defeated.

Victorious mindset vs Victim mindset
When you look at your life and see something that you don’t like… Where does you point to? You or someone else? If you chose someone else chances are, you’re in a victim mindset.
The victim mentality will always find a way to make you believe that you can’t have what you desire, because someone did something that set you up with a disadvantage. What is the other side of it?
The Victorious Mindset will allow you to see the possibilities and opportunities knocking at your door. You know you have this mindset when you look at a problem and instead of getting scared you see it as a way to improve yourself, your strength and your standing.
Join me for this episode to get more tools to go deeper into changing the Victim Mindset for a Victorious Mindset, and how to live victorious.

It’s all about the action
Have you ever seen a possibility and were SO EXCITED, then some time passed and that excitement started to fade? In my experience,
That's because you just stood and looked at it, but didn’t take action.
In the world today people are talking lots about manifesting your dreams, about visualization. But they forget a very important piece: you have to do your part too. When you get to actualize your dreams, you ACT, you take the appropriate action every moment and stay connected to your desire.
Want to know more about that and the perks of being into action? Let’s do it together!

Let go of Yesterday
As a psychologist I’ve been facilitating transformation in the life of my clients well over 25 years. Before that I had an abuse filled childhood and the first person that actually asked me how I was feeling was a professor, in college. And for so long therapists of different techniques told me that I would have to learn how to live with it (AKA survive). And no, I’m not a survivor.
I knew something else was possible, and that’s what I’ve dedicated my life, for me and the people that reaches me for a change, a transformation for their lives.
What if your past didn’t dictate your future? What if you could just let go?
Join me! I’ll give you my best tools to do it!
