Morgana - Overcoming Learning issues-Descalculia, Desgraphia, aspergers

Question came in from a reader:

“I am hurting and need a permanent solution. Life is bruising and cutting me down
Life is giving me a tough time. School is a challenge.
I can’t seem to get over how difficult somethings are.
How can I better my life at school, get essays done? Get A’s and keep them?

I even wonder if I am on any path to success. besides constantly seeing my best efforts being cut down in the bud. I try my best, but to frankly I feel like crap, dumb, and stupid. Is there a ritual, spirit guide, or something that works to make something manifest, like guide you to victory in everything that you do?

Example: Something that would work by lets say, this Monday: completing an essay? Like a dream or vision. Or help you remember something out of the blue in simple instructions that one could understand?”

Dear D:

34 years ago I was struck by a car and received a traumatic brain injury that made basic tasks like concentrating and remembering things very hard for me. While I am by no means an expert in learning or brain health, I do at least have some first hand experience with what you’re struggling with.

  • The first thing I want you to understand is this is not your fault, nor is it a personal failure on your part. And it can get much better.
  • Here are some recommendations: high quality fish oil and other brain nourishing foods… but your brain LOVES fish oil!
  • Brains also like exercise (even walking), making music, and making art. Learning a language. You don’t have to any of this well to get benefits
  • Keep working on learning new stuff. The good news is struggling to learn is really, really healthy for your brain. And get good sleep at night if you can
  • Focus on BABY STEPS in the short term. Be really kind. Celebrate the smallest improvements
  • And speak with your teachers and guidance counselors about your challenges. If you can, discuss this with a doctor. Your teachers should be modifying your lessons to help you where you are, as a unique human being.

I’ve been where you are. It was truly a dark and difficult time. It gets better.

By the way, while my brain wasn’t doing some things well (like school work), it got really good at other things, like intuition. It is my suspicion that while you may be struggling in one area of learning, you may be a genius at something else that you haven’t noticed or maybe haven’t considered important.

One last thing…

You may also find it helpful to take all your anger and shame and despair feelings and use them to create a “Life Monster” that is trying to keep you down. Make this monster feel very real and human, and then imagine destroying it until it doesn’t exist any more.

When it’s completely gone, imagine meeting a new Life “Honey” in its place, that loves you and sees a bright future for you. Sit down with her and talk about what she sees and wants for you, how much she believes in you, and discuss what next steps she wants you to take in school.

Namaste, friend.

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - My boyfriend’s messaging strange women

Question: Do you have any idea why a man would start instant messaging strange woman after being in a five year relationship. Said he was “stupid” and wasn’t physical with anybody. I guess you can say I have trust issues. Answers: Ouch! I am so sorry. Do I have any idea why? Here is what I have learned, first off I am really sorry because that really hurts. If you have trust issues especially, that would hurt and sting even more. So first something about trust and then something about men. Trust: When we trust, it’s not that we trust someone to be perfect. That sets us up for failure because no one is perfect and you can’t control anybody. That is insanity if we try to control another and put all of our power – making sure they be a certain way to so that we are safe. Instead, find that safety and trust inside you. That safety being that capacity to discern and know that come what may, you’ve got your own back – you can take care of yourself. It takes a lot of pressure off of other...

How to Set Priorities Using the ABCDE Method - Brian Tracy

The more thought you invest into setting priorities before you begin a task, the faster you will get the important things done. The more important and valuable the task is to you, the more motivated you are to overcome procrastination and launch yourself into the job. William Matthews said,  “The first law of success is concentration – to bend all the energies to one point, and to go directly to that point, looking neither to the right or to the left.” Today, I want to share a method of time-management for setting priorities that I’ve been using for years, called the ABCDE method.

Morgana - Your Wealth is in Your Weirdness

When I first became a life coach I was really concerned about being taken seriously, sounding professional, and not looking like a freak. Not much has changed: I still care about all that stuff. But I discovered over time that the more professional and non-freaky I try to sound, the more INVISIBLE I become. The minute I start to talk like a professional coach and go into one of those elevator speeches I spent so much money to learn (you know exactly what I’m talking about, don’t you?)… I can see the other person’s EYES GLAZE OVER before they start scanning the room for someone more interesting. I can’t begin to tell you how annoying that is. Then one day, years ago, I stood up at a large networking meeting of high powered female entrepreneurs, pulled out a magic wand and called myself a “witchy” coach, and said something about how “goddesses can be old or young, thin or fat, can do what they want, charge what they want (and Aphrodite sleeps with whomever she wants, and no one dares...
