Self Sabotage Prevents Recovery from Post Traumatic Syndrome (PTSD)
PTSD was diagnosed in at least 11-40% of Veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. 70% of adults in the U.S. have experienced some type of traumatic event at least once in their lives.

Do You Sabotage Finding True Love?
Relationship is a complex subject and can be sabotaged on all levels. Let’s start in the very beginning, meaning the choice of a life partner. It is not a surprise that our parents and their marriage have a huge influence upon our choices.

How to Repair Karma
Before Mary married John, he was a complete gentleman. He was considerate and attentive. He appeared to be stable and mellow. After the marriage, there was a complete transformation.

The Law of Attraction and Karma
Rhonda Byrne’s book and movie, The Secret, sold 21 million copies. It served an important mission: It popularized the Law of Attraction and emphasized the importance of Positive Thinking. It also focused on feeling gratitude, as if you already received what you focused on.

And the Dali Lama just tweeted a week ago about just that. On the other hand, the Law of Attraction clearly points to the fact that the key to success is happiness. So, if you have ever wondered how to manifest success, if you’ve ever asked yourself: “How can I be rich?” you...

How to Make the Law of Attraction Work for You?
A lot of my patients ask me how to be a success. They do everything by the book, say the perfect affirmations, think positively, and do dream boards as suggested in the book “The Secret”. Yet they are not successful in making the Law of Attraction work for them. What is going on?
