The Question To Ask Yourself

The Question To Ask Yourself

I know life can be tough so I’m reminding you to CELEBRATE your little daily wins!

Let me show you what I mean…

Personally,

1- We went to the Cherry Blossom Festival last week and just before I was about to ‘cave’ and get a sugary treat, I noticed amongst the food trucks, one called, Judy Makes Juices. And I got the best acai bowl ever! #judysavedtheday

2- I just got off the phone with my little mama. She is doing amazingly well -thanks to all of you who have asked about her. We’ll be flying back to Utah again next month for her big 90th birthday bash! (And we’re going to party like it’s 1933! haha.)

3- I’m looking forward to Easter Sunday. After church we’re going to dinner at a friend’s and I already have my “Jerusalem” food planned to take: pitas, hummus, and falafel, yum! (I’m usually a little behind, so I’m celebrating being prepared a few days early!)

Professionally,

1- I’m so grateful for such an amazing turn out on my Inner Glow Up group call last week. If you missed it, the replay is still available for purchase here.

2- I’m super excited about my next 4-day SimplyAlign Training coming up in 3 weeks! There are still some spots open if you want to rock your world in the best way this year!

Your turn.

The question to ask yourself is: What can I celebrate?

What’s something small that went well in the past few days? I’m serious, I’d love to hear about it. You can simply reply to this email and let me know. I feel certain whatever it is will make us both smile!

And one more share to celebrate:

Do you feel LUCKY? 6 practical ways to make your own luck!

Do you feel LUCKY? 6 practical ways to make your own luck!

Top O the Mornin’ to ya Lisa!

I hope you’re having a happy St. Patrick’s Day so far.

I’ve always loved this day, even though I don’t drink beer or eat corned beef, ha! But I do my GREEN each day in my smoothies…does that count?

Have you ever felt like some people just seem to have all the luck? They meet the perfect partner, get the beautiful home, have ‘easy kids’, or just seem to have everything fall into place for them. But what if I told you that luck isn’t just something that happens to you? It’s something you can actively create for yourself.

There’s a trend (popular with TikTokers) known as “lucky girl syndrome”. This actually isn’t a new concept. It’s positive affirmations, plus a little cognitive behavioral therapy that says your thoughts, emotions and behaviors are all connected and influence each other (basically, “The Secret” 2006).

Just yesterday I was sharing on a call with my SimplyAlign Practitioners that there are many ways to create your own luck. Hannah told us that her 12 year old daughter’s birthday is March 17th, so her entire life people have told her she’s a “lucky girl”. And since she believes she’s lucky (because that’s what she’s always been told), good things are always drawn to her. I love it, it’s what I’ve taught for years:

“What you think about, you bring about”

So whether it’s positive thinking, upbeat affirmations, the power of intention, or whatever you choose to call it, here are 6 ways to create your own luck:

  1. Set clear goals: When you have a clear idea of what you want to achieve, you’re more likely to see and seize opportunities that align with your goals.

  2. Take calculated risks: Creating your own luck often means stepping outside of your comfort zone and taking calculated risks. Make sure to weigh the potential risks and benefits before making a decision.

  3. Discipline yourself to work AND to rest: Luck often comes to those who work hard and persevere through challenges. Put in the effort and stay focused on your goals, even when things get tough. And…when you need to rest, take a rest. Sometimes allowing yourself downtime takes discipline too.

  4. Stay open-minded: Sometimes, luck comes in unexpected forms. Be open to new experiences, people, and opportunities, even if they don’t fit neatly into your plans. If you’re willing to try new things, you might find opportunities that you never even knew existed.

  5. Meet more people: Luck is often the result of being in the right place at the right time and knowing the right connectors. Surround yourself with people who support and encourage you. A strong network can help you navigate challenges, connect you with opportunities, and open doors for you.

  6. Keep Learning: The more you know, the more opportunities you’ll have. Keep learning new skills and staying up-to-date on topics in your orbit to increase chances of success.

    And bonus #7 (Gratitude – it’s always a bonus we give ourselves, amiright?)

  7. Practice gratitude: When you appreciate the good things in your life, you attract more good things. Take time to reflect on what you’re grateful for, and celebrate your successes along the way.

Whether you believe it’s from being intentional, receiving blessings, keeping a high vibration, or simply being lucky, the truth is that you have the power to create your own luck.

So go out there and create!

Random Distractions

My 5 random “distractions” you might like too

My 5 random “distractions” you might like too

The energy of the world has felt really strange for awhile now.

I figured you might be feeling that too, so today I thought it’d be fun to share with you a few of my favorite “distractions.”

Here are five things that make me happy, and I bet some of these can put a smile on your face too!

First, here are two things I’m having so much fun with (and…truth be told probably spending way too much time on).

1) Chat GPT – https://chat.openai.com

Oh man! Have you played around with this yet? I love it so much, it’s like having a personal assistant (but this AI is less snarky than my Alexa). I can see why parents don’t want their kids using this to write their school papers- it’s too easy! But here’s a fun tip -it can and will do so much more than just write talks and papers for you. And the more you use it, it gets to know you (creepy? maybe a little). I asked for 2 weeks of easy vegan dinners and it quickly typed up some really great menu plans and even all the recipes!

If you want to reply to this email and let me know how you’re using it, I’d love to hear!

2) ThredUp – https://www.thredup.com/r/UKBCFK

Oh, this is a huge online thrift store! It’s so fun to put in your filters: size, colors, etc. then use the search bar for whatever item or brand you’re looking for. (Pro-tip: find the little button that says “Recommends” -and then you can sort by Low to High $) And best of all, you can feel good about buying gently-used (they also have some “new with tags”) because it helps save our planet by not adding to the environmental problem of clothing overproduction. (And bonus, you can clean out your closet and send your clothes to them too!)

Next, here are two “smooth” things that always give me a minute to pause and breathe:

3) Mr. Vivo on Instagram -he’s so dreamy! https://www.instagram.com/mco_vivo

Such a magnificent Maine Coon, the first time he popped up in my scroll he seriously took my breath away! – I dare you to look at his posts without swooning, haha.

4) Teecino – https://teeccino.com/

These caffeine-free, organic teas in 35 unique flavors offer a ton of health benefits: improved heart health, better digestion, and lower cholesterol levels. I’m not a coffee drinker (even though all Teecino’s are herbal), but I do love their herbal teas. My favorite one this winter is: Chaga Mushroom + Ashwagandha. I add a little almond milk and a dab of pure maple syrup, and it hits the spot for my mid-afternoon break – yum! Also faves of mine are the Dandelion Vanilla Carmel and Chocolate Mint. They have SO many flavors to choose from, I suggest you start with a sample pack so you can try several. On the Teecino website you can read about the health benefits and their whole story. (PS- these are also available on Amazon)

Last but not least, if you need a distraction from the woes of the world, AND want to learn something new, this might do it for you:

5) The Institute of Human Anatomy channel on YouTube. These guys use REAL human cadavers to explain the inner workings of our bodies. I learn so many new things every time I watch one of these videos, it’s fascinating, and sometimes kinda gross -just warning ya!

So there you have it, a list of random things that bring joy to my life and I hope at least one of them will be useful for you too!

5 Daily Strategies to Love Yourself More

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

5 Daily Strategies to Love Yourself More

I was recently asked an interesting question: “Can you help someone to love themself…and is that even possible through SimplyAlign or coaching?”

My answer to that (and what I’m sharing with you today) is -yes it’s possible, and yes, over the 25+ years that I’ve done energy work, and now coaching, I’ve worked with many clients who struggle with self-love and self-acceptance. It seems to be something that affects most of us to one degree or another at different times in our lives. Self love is a critical aspect of any healing process, because having it, or the lack of it, ripples out to all other areas of our lives.

So, whether I’m coaching, or clearing energy with SimplyAlign, here are some strategies I use to help my clients connect to themselves more deeply so they can live and love whole-heartedly. As you read through this list, check in with yourself that you are getting ‘enough’ of each of these, and I invite you to identify one loving thing that you can do for yourself in the next few days:

  1. Self-care: I know we hear it all the time, but one of the best ways to show love to yourself is through self-care. I encourage my clients to prioritize self-care activities such as exercise, meditation, or taking a relaxing bath. When we set aside time for ourselves, we are sending a message to the subconscious mind that we are deserving of that time, love, and care.
  2. Self-compassion: Often, clients who struggle with self-love have a harsh inner critic that constantly berates them, and most often this began in childhood. In addition to releasing any adverse energetic vibration of childhood experiences and/or generational issues, I also teach my clients self-compassion techniques, such as talking to themselves the way they would talk to a friend or visualizing themselves being held in a loving embrace. These techniques help clients cultivate a more compassionate inner dialogue.
  3. Explore limiting beliefs: In general, people who struggle with self-love have underlying limiting beliefs that are holding them back. With SimplyAlign, it’s easy to quickly get to the root causes and release the low-vibrations without having to re-live the entire story. But I also help my clients follow the thread to identify their beliefs and reframe them into a more positive and empowering story. It’s a step toward resilience in the process of connecting with your own heart.
  4. Use positive affirmations: It’s so true that the words we ‘declare’ matter. I find that when asked the right questions, my clients are really skillful at coming up with powerful, customized affirmations they can repeat to themselves daily. These personalized affirmations help to reprogram their subconscious mind with positive beliefs and thoughts, which can help to increase self-love and self-acceptance.
  5. Focus on strengths: I love helping my clients and students see their own light that they may not even be aware of, or have lost sight of. I encourage them to focus on their strengths and accomplishments rather than their perceived shortcomings. And of course by focusing on what they do well and what they have achieved, they can develop a greater sense of their own capacity and self-love.

These five strategies can be practiced everyday to develop a greater sense of self-compassion and self-acceptance.

At the beginning of this post (and since we can all use a stronger, consistent connection to our own heart), I invited you to identify one loving thing from the above list that you can do for yourself in the next few days, and, pro-tip: put a reminder on your calendar to increase accountability and follow through, yay!

As you add more loving thoughts and actions into your life, you’ll find it crowds out the self-limiting thoughts and behaviors, and aligns you with the peace that comes from giving yourself permission to love yourself.

These strategies above work well, AND…if you’re ready to learn how to clean up and revitalize your energy field in a way that is even more streamlined, join us for the next SimplyAlign Training – it’s all LIVE with me online, and includes access for a full year to a HUGE online course -with all the recordings, plus many additional videos and teachings.

You’ll learn how to do energy work for yourself, friends, family, clients (if you choose), and yes, of course your pets!

All in a way that is so simple, yet profoundly effective. Learning SimplyAlign isn’t hard, it’s an intuitive and graceful process that anyone can learn!

7 Gifts: Are you interested?

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

7 Gifts: Are you interested?

In 1996 when I began practicing energy work on friends, family, then clients, I used what I’d been taught through classes and whatever few books were published on it at the time.

But I also had to learn to rely on my own intuition, and trust God to give me inspiration as I did the work.

It was important to me to learn the cleanest, purest and least complicated way of doing this type of work.

When I started doing this work, I was so happy to be able to help clients with whatever challenges they faced in their lives.

As a bonus, over the years I’ve seen how much growth also comes to the students who train to be SimplyAlign Practitioners.

There are so many gifts that come with the learning, I may not be able to know them all, but here is a short list of 7 blessings that my students have shared with me that have come into their lives since going through the training:

NOTE: I’m not taking credit for this, it’s not from anything I’ve done, but through their own interest, study, practice, and positive energy.

1. An increased sense of fulfillment and purpose: being a SimplyAlign Practitioner can provide a sense of fulfillment and purpose, as you help others to heal and transform their lives. This can give you a greater sense of satisfaction and meaning in your personal and professional life.

2. Ability to facilitate personal growth and healing: As a SimplyAlign practitioner, you’ll have the opportunity to facilitate personal growth and healing in yourself and others. This can be a transformative experience, helping you to heal old wounds and release negative patterns and beliefs.

3. Enhanced intuition and spiritual awareness: Energy work can help you to connect with your intuition and spiritual awareness, allowing you to tap into your inner wisdom and guidance. This can enhance your decision-making and help you live a more fulfilling and purposeful life.

4. A deeper sense of empathy, with ability to hold healthy boundaries: Being an energy practitioner requires you to tune in to the emotions and energy of others, which will help you develop a deeper sense of empathy and compassion. This can improve your relationships and increase your understanding of others.

5. Cleared family patterns that have been in the lineage for decades: As a SimplyAlign practitioner, you’ll have the tools to help clear your own family patterns as well as help your clients clear theirs. Breaking negative cycles encourages us to create new, more positive family narratives that involve reframing negative experiences and focusing on strengths and resilience.

6. Increased financial independence: As a SimplyAlign Practitioner, you have the potential to earn a great income doing meaningful work. This brings peace of mind, as well as more freedom and flexibility in your life to pursue additional passions and priorities.

7. Connection with a beautiful community of supportive souls: Our community of supportive practitioners is here to welcome you with open arms. Starting a healing business is a journey, and we’re all here to support each other.
If you feel inspired by any of these, I’d love to have you join us in my next

Freedom business

Why I love my business? Freedom to do this….

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Why I love my business? Freedom to do this….

This week I’m writing you from my mom’s home in southern Utah, where I’m helping her after she fell, hit her head, and then spent 3 days on the floor because she was unable to get up or reach her phone. A friend, after calling for 3 days with no answer, finally got my brother’s number and called him. (He is so good to look out for her, was just there the night before she fell, in addition he had company that week).

As soon as he got the call, he and his wife ran right over, and after an ambulance ride, a week’s hospital stay, plus 2 weeks in a rehab center, my little mama is home safe and sound.

And yes, she is now willing to wear a medical-alert necklace. (We got her a google-voice last year but she unhooked it because it creeped her out. She was afraid ‘he’ was listening to her.)

Here’s the thing…
I had no idea my little ‘mamacita’ (who is nearly 90 years old) was so popular! She’s lived in the same small town and attended the the same church congregation for 55 years, plus worked at a local bank for 25 years, so yes, she knows a lot of people!

While in the hospital, she received numerous phone calls daily, including Marco Polo videos from her kids and grandkids, and get this – she had 18 ( ! ) friends visit while in the rehab center! And now at home there have been so many friends stopping by bringing fresh-baked bread, tapioca pudding, homemade chocolate treats, etc.

And the phone calls are non-stop with people checking in on her. Word spreads fast around here apparently.

I mean…I know a lot of people, but I really don’t think I’d get 18 people visiting me in-between physical therapy appointments, and then phone calls and visitors all day, every day as I recovered at home. (Would I even want that? Hmm…probably not.)

But I get it…many of these friends are around her same age so they don’t text…they call or come and visit in person.
That’s how their generation does it. And it’s a wonderful thing.

I was reminded about two important lessons this week:

1) Be a good friend like my mom has been to so many people over the years. The acts of service that you send out come back to you.

2) There is power in doing work that you love that also gives you flexibility. I wouldn’t have had the luxury to quickly jump on a plane and travel across the country to help my little mama when needed had it not been for entrepreneurship.

I love running my own business and the time and money freedom to be able to still do everything I need to from here. With internet and phones I can take care of mamacita and I still get to love on my clients too.

And you know what?

That’s why I teach SimplyAlign. Along with all the innovative ways you can use the science of energy work, I also teach my students how to give service AND how to build a business that can travel wherever they do.


If YOU are ready to have time and money freedom through doing meaningful work that LIGHTS you up

SimplyAlign Training might be your next step!

Go here to get all the info and if it’s calling you,
join us on Zoom the last week in April.

Use the pay-in-full-option before midnight on Tuesday (Valentine’s Day!)
to get the additional EARLY BIRD SPECIAL:
2 months of weekly 15-min laser sessions with me!


And if you’ve already attended one of my 4-day trainings in the past, don’t miss the REFRESHER COURSE March 9th/10th – All online, easy peasy to attend!

I’m here in Utah for another week or so, and I hope wherever you are you set an intention for, and create a great week!

Much Love,
Carolyn

PS: This Early Bird Special is a great deal. If you’re thinking about getting SimplyAlign trained, act quickly, (before Tues!), so you and I can have 2 months of personalized laser sessions prior to the course. I look forward to getting to know you better!

PPS: My little mama is doing great now, and getting stronger each day!

Can I show you my office?

office

^^^ Welcome to my workspace. ^^^

This is where I write these weekly emails, do my SimplyAlign phone sessions, teach all my online Training Courses, coach my High Performance clients, and everything else involved in my biz.

I’m sharing because I just wanted to give you a little glimpse into what it’s like here at Carolyn Cooper International, Inc. (did you know that’s the official name of my biz?).

Except for one little thing, I LOVE this big, light office so much! I’m sure I manifested it by visualizing a big office like this for so many years. It’s at the top of the staircase in our apartment and often when I’m not in there working but walk past, I open the door and stick my head in just to say, “Ooh I love this office!”

About that one little thing…it’s probably because there are windows running along two of the four walls, but this room is FREEZING cold this time of year! It’s nothing my little space heater can’t help with, but seriously, I often I feel like Bob Cratchit warming my frigid fingers over a little candle, brrrr.

But bonus…despite the cold, my plants grow super well in here with all the light coming through the windows. And spring is just around the corner, right? lol

As I’m thinking about what a blessing it is that I get to teach students from so many different and far away locations, from my groovy little biz-hub here, I am so grateful and wanted to let you see where I spend my days doing work I love.

So thanks for letting me share my space in your space today.

Carolyn Cooper Office

I also want to make sure you know about the EARLY BIRD SPECIAL for my upcoming SimplyAlign Training. If you saw my announcement last week, you’ll know my next course is April 25-28th all online – from this very office, woo hoo!

The Early Bird Special for this SimplyAlign cerTrac Training is this:

Pay in full on or before Valentine’s Day (Feb 14th)

And get 8 weekly private 15-min laser sessions with me

It’s a great way for you to get familiar with the flow of the work before the class

and I LOVE getting to know my students in this way.

If you haven’t attended one of my SimplyAlign Training Courses yet, are you ready to join us this time around? We’d love to have you and right now is a great time to sign up so that you also get these 2 months of Early Bird sessions!

If you’ve already attended my 4-day course in the past I hope you’ll join us for the next Refresher Course, March 9th & 10th.

I also have some Group Calls coming up that I’m super excited to start doing again. Thank you to those of you who answered my email a few weeks ago with some fantastic topic suggestions!

I’ll be flying to Utah this week to help my 89-year-old little mama for a few weeks, so when I’m back I’ll get those calls going.

In the meantime if the Trainings are not what you need right now, I invite you to check out my past Group Calls on a variety of topics. Each session is embedded with the SimplyAlign work, so it works even through a replay. In fact, just today a client told me since she listened to my Weight Loss call 2.5 months ago she’s lost 25 pounds! So go here to browse the topics for what you need right now.

That’s all for today. As always, thanks for reading and interacting with me. It means a lot to me.

Much Love,
Carolyn

Year Compass Tool

One of my favorite tools: Check This Out!

One of my favorite tools: Check This Out!

Happy 2023!

Today I want to share with you one of my favorite end of year / beginning a new year tools.

Have you heard of the Year Compass?

It’s been around since 2012…in fact more than a million people around the world have used it since then.

And get this…it’s totally FR*EE.

It’s a digital booklet that helps you reflect on the past year AND plan the next one…intentionally.

It’s got some really great questions and exercises that help to uncover your patterns so you can design the ideal year for yourself.

As you set aside some time to do this, you’ll:

learn from past mis-steps,

celebrate your victories big & small,

and set some great goals for a fulfilling year to come!

All you need is a few quiet hours and this great little booklet….you’re welcome!

Get it here: https://yearcompass.com/#download


I’d love to hear from you – have you used this Year Compass before? If this is your first time going through it -what did you love most about it? What was the most helpful for you?

Here’s to a great New Year –
Shine On,
Carolyn

PS: Today is Day 3 (of 26) for me, on the Green Smoothie Girl Detox. The main group begins on Tues Jan 10th, so you can still jump in if you’re feeling like doing something “heroic” – haha! Seriously, it really does give you such a feeling of accomplishment. This is my 8th time, so I know what to expect, but I’m feeling accomplished just after a few days -simply by stepping up to do something that takes some commitment.

(The early bird pricing is over, but you can still join, and you can start your Day 1 anytime that fits your schedule). You can go here to learn more:

Merry Christmas

Are You Finishing 2022 Rested or Finishing Strong?

/0 Comments/in , /by

Are You Finishing 2022 Rested or Finishing Strong?

We often hear about “finishing the year strong” – I don’t know about you, but this year I just want to finish the year feeling rested, clear and peaceful.

My goal is to step into the New Year RESTED.

Because rested IS strong, right?

Merry Christmas

The week between Christmas and New Year’s Day is my favorite week of the year (Yep, I like it even more than my birth-week!). Maybe it’s your fave too? Because usually nothing is scheduled that week. It’s like getting a bonus week where I can rest, play, review my past year and plan for the next one.

One thing I do during that “bonus” week is – Go through the months in my past calendar.
I review each week and each activity.

I ask myself these three questions:

  • Did this activity energize me?
  • Did this activity drain me?
  • Did this activity help me align with my values & goals?

It’s super helpful to see where I spent time, and how that helped or hindered me, which is useful in planning for the upcoming year.

If you’ve never done this, I highly recommend it. Keep in mind, you need to set aside a few hours for it. And when you do this and then schedule for 2023, -to the extent you can- schedule in more of what energizes you and less of what drains you.

TIP: These three questions also make an excellent evening journal prompt. It helps you realize real quick where you’re spending time that isn’t making you feel good or moving you forward so you can adjust accordingly.

During December’s last week, in addition to reviewing, visioning, and planning I also just love the downtime. This poem by Edgar Guest makes me smile, I included it because I thought you might like it too.

(You may have heard of Edgar A Guest (1881-1959), he became known as ‘the people’s poet’ because his poems often had an inspirational and optimistic view of everyday life).


The happiest nights I ever know
Are those when I have no place to go,

And the missus says when the day is through:
“Tonight we haven’t a thing to do.”

Oh, the joy of it, and the peace untold
Or sitting ‘round in my slippers old,

With my pipe and book in my easy chair,
Knowing I needn’t go anywhere.

Needn’t hurry my evening meal
Nor force the smiles that I do not feel,

But can grab a book from a nearby shelf,
And drop all sham and be myself.

Oh, the charm of it and the comfort rare;
Nothing on earth with it can compare;

And I’m sorry for him who doesn’t know
The joy of having no place to go.

Edgar A. Guest


As you enjoy Christmas this weekend do your best to prioritize some rest for yourself. And block out time on your next week’s schedule for reviewing, dreaming, planning, and just “sitting ‘round in your slippers old”.


Much Love,
Carolyn
