Daily Homework – Four Principles to Transform your life.

Posted on by Dr Harry Henshaw

There are ten principles to the Daily Homework.  Presented here are the first four:

1.  To take complete ownership and responsibility for your life.  Understand that you have created and chosen your life the way it is occuring.  You are the cause of what you experience and your life.

2.  Watch your word.  Stay presen to what you think and say.  Choose to say positive things about yourself and others.  What you think and say creates your experiences of how life will occur and be for you.

3.  Practice your Self Affirmations and Possibilities everyday.  Say your Self Affirmations and Possibilities in the morning, through out the day and before bedtime.

4.  What is your intention?  Plan your intention each morning upon awakening stay present to it throughout the day.  What are you committed to today?  What are you committed to now?  What is it that you want to create in your life?  What is it that you want to create now?

Read each principle slowly and contemplate them daily, throughout the day!

The conversation of being inauthentic and recovery.

Posted on by Dr Harry Henshaw

One of the goals of counseling is to help a person become authentic.  One of the goals is to help others see where they are being inauthentic in their lives, in one or more domains of their life.  The work of becoming authentic helps a person to get unblocked thereby allowing them to move forward with the things that they want to create.  Being authentic requires a person to give up the pretense of life and to let that which has been hidden to be revealed to others and in some cases, to the world.

For a person in recovery the process will be the same.  Many individuals in recovery live inside a way of being that uses pretending as one of the defense mechanisms.  Putting forth the image or perspective that things and themselves are a certain way, and hiding what is true from others, is how a person in active addiction moves through life.  Create pretense and repress the truth.  The counselor’s role here is to help a person shave that which has been hidden and to take full ownership of it.  It is only from this admission that the possibility for change and transformation can take place.
