Dr Gabrielle Francis - multiple modality healer
Yes, I know I am using the word ‘guru’ – which means teacher. I have never met any person nevermind a holistic practitioner who has that number of degrees and qualifications and has travelled so extensively studying in different countries all around the world! I look forward to the workshops and seminars she will start giving later this year! It would be an honor to hear her speak and divulge her extensive knowledge.
The interview on KtC Radio with Gabrielle was very interesting, she had some wonderful coaching gems to share with entrepeneurs gorwing their businesses, and spoke about her successes – thngs that workded for her along the way, and the challenges – tidbits of advice of haow she would do things differently and pitfalls to watch out for. We also covered the ‘poverty’ mentality that a lot of the holistic profession have and she talked about how she brought abundance into a her life!. Gabrielle has had an amazing journey – with a businesscalled Backstage Productions providing holistic care for rock stars and the band for y years – bands like the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Bruce Springteen and Red Hot Chillie Peppers to name a few!
I call her a change catalyst and a spiritual entrepeneur, definitely a role model for the industy of alternative and integrated medicine.

with gratitude and inspiration,
Coach Louise

Hi All!
Marcia Wieder, America’s Dream Coach just wrote in her latest Dreamzine the following….
Exhale, Relax & Dream
Sit down and pour yourself a cup of coffee or tea. I have some refreshing and profound news to share with you.
While away on my recent Passion Quest, lo and behold, I discovered what I consider to be one of the great secrets of the universe. Take a deep breath in and here’s the important part. Let it out. Exhale.
The secret to greater joy and happiness is…to relax. I don’t mean that you need to go away on vacation to relax. You don’t need to get on a plane or even in your car. But you do need to travel to a different state. A state of relaxation. I’m talking about living your life in a greater state of relaxation.
Please do not underestimate the apparent simplicity of this wisdom.
When we’re up tight, worrying, concerned about the past and obsessing about the future, we are tense. Our bodies, brains and cells are all tight, constricted…literally uptight.
As we exhale and relax we actually can return to our more natural state of being, a higher vibration. From this place, we can access greater creativity and wisdom. From here, wisdom is available that isn’t when we’re tied in a knot or walking around as a bundle of nerves. From here we can flow and be in synch with the miracles of life.
And from here, you are connected to the state of divinity within. Our own divine nature is a state of openness that comes from relaxing.
As we relax and lift our burdens (and/or the burdens of others) we literally lighten up. This is what the masters mean when they talk about enlightenment. As we relax, our ego lessens and loosens its grip and what we’re left with is the gift of who we really are. From here, you will find greater clarity and self-confidence. As we lighten up our body and mind, so do we also lighten our heart and souls.
At a slower pace or a more natural rhythm, life and all of its glory, brilliance and miracles can catch up with you. Relaxing can take us into deeper faith. Faith is the gateway to the unknown and the unknown is the path to the Divine.
So exhale…and relax. See who you are in this altered state of relaxation. Explore how long you can actually stay here. Notice what thoughts and feelings you have from this place and enjoy tranquility.
Notice also, what your ego (and those other parts) have to say. As always, you can hear from them, acknowledge their needs, but remembering that they are simply parts of you and you won’t give them the power to hijack you.
If like me you’ve lived much of your life in doing mode and need to be accomplishing results to feel good about yourself, you may find the practice of relaxing to truly be a state of grace. From here, you will have extra for the people you love and for creating and pursuing new dreams.
So this holiday season, relax.
There is a lot of wisdom in these words! So remember to take time out for yourself, especially over the holidays, knowing that peace and happiness comes from within.
peacefully yours,
Coach Louise

Hi everyone,
I have been doing some research recently on the gene mutuation MTHFR – I have the double strand issue which effects homocysteine levels. It stops the folic acid from converting properly, so that the homocysteine cannot become methionine – an amino acid. This has effect on so many different things. I found out about the gene mutations because of fertility treatment and a miscarriage. I was tested after my miscarriage and found that this particular mutation particularly when it is double stranded, can cause miscarriage, because the foetus isn’t getting the benefit of the folic acid. I have since learnt there is more risk for thrombosis, heart disease, and stroke – and even brain fog or lack of concentration. As it effects clotting issues in the blood, and has vascular implications, I realised that this could also be connected to my being a migraineur! After all they deam a migraine to be a type of mini -stroke… A light bulb moment. As it turns out, after reading a couple of articles where some research has been done, it seems that there is a good possibility that migraineurs, those particularly with aura, are effected by the gene mutation. So I am wondering why more neurologists are not testing for this gene….? I am putting it out there. I feel grateful that this could be a simple explanation for what has been a huge issue for me for many years, and effects the quality of my life dramatically. There is a simple treatment, which should be managed by your physician and consists of folic acid, B12 and B6 – which helps to lower the homocysteine levels. If this is pertinent to you, I hope this is helpful. I am not an expert, but I am becoming one in my own health! If this is an opportunity to take responsibility for your health and wellbeing if you have any signs …miscarriage, migraines, etc - grab it, and get your homocysteine levels checked, or get tested for the MTHFR gene mutation.
with your wellbeing in mind,
Coach Louise
PS I have a detailed tutorial on my www.lifebalanceinfertilitycoach.wordpress.com site on MTHFR if you want to know a little more about it!

I couldn’t let this week go by without creating more awareness around Invisible Illness Week which is this
Invisible Illness Week
week!
I am a migraineur – diagnosed with cluster headaches/ occular migraine, and I truly do know what its like to live with chronic pain. I also know what it is like to live with something that isn’t always visible to others, and dealing with the fallout from that. With friends and work. I have realised that primarily it is important to educate others (they don’t know what you’re going through) and be kind and compassionate to yourself (it doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks). Support yourself the best way you know how – if it means saying ‘no’ to be able to ‘yes’ to yourself then that is the appropriate choice. (I had a great interview on this subject on my radio show a couple of weeks ago with Christine Clifton, ‘Become an Energy Magnet’ -see link to show on side of page)
So I want to support and acknowledge all practitioners who support people in chronic pain – and let all of you with ‘invisible illnesses’ know how much I support and admire your courage and resolve in your lives. Take care of yourselves.
Warmly,
Coach Louise Crooks

Last week I had a great interview with Christine Clifton on my KtC Radio show…. and it led into a 
discussion around being able to say ‘no’, to be able to say ‘yes’ to ourselves….. ( www.blogtalkradio.com/KeystoClarity-coach to listen to the archived podcast)
Earlier in the year, I was at a weekend in NY with Marcia Wieder – America’s Dream Coach, and she signed this lovely little book that she had just published, for me. I found a wonderful quote which is so in alignment with our discussion around conserviing energy. I hope you enjoy it as much I did….
Quote from Marcia Wieder – America’s Dream Coach
Book: Dreams Are Whispers From The Soul
No More, Now What?
When asked to do something, do you open up a jam packed calendar to squeeze one more thing in to an already over scheduled life? Before we can create new dreams we need to make room for them.
Is it time to give up something you have outgrown? Are you ready to quit something that is no longer ture for you and that no longer nurtures or fulfills you?
When your kids need you or you are under a deadline at work, you don’t always have a choice. But when offered a choice, if you are invited to do something that you don’t have to do or don’t want to do, consider saying, ‘No, thank you.’
Clear away some clutter to make room for new dreams. As you say, ‘no more’ to what’s no longer true for you , to those activities, habits, even relationships that are not aligned with how you want to live your life, you make room to ask, ‘Now what?’
With new found friends, energy and time, what would you say ‘yes’ to? What would you say ‘more’ to? What dreams would you schedule into your life?
While helping people create or discover new dreams, two of my favourite words are, ‘What else?’ What else would bring you more joy and fulfillment, what else would bring you more passion and energy, what else would have you feel aligned with your purpose?
With a little breathing space, you can add things to your life that matter to you, make you happy and are aligned with your purpose. Imagine how your life will change when some day soon, you open your calendar to find inspiring projects that progress your most heartfelt goals.
That would be a dream come true life.
letting go, to make more room

That might seen as a silly question…. but really what motivates us to get up in the morning to do what we do? It is not always the money, in fact it often is secondary, even tho’ it is the one thing that allows us to keep doing what we love doing! So of course we can see how important that aspect is!
Of course it also means that we need to determine what ’success’ means to us! Success to me, means that I can work with amazing people to help them create wonderful businesses that can impact people effectively and allow myself and them to live a fun, and easy life, being able to grow and learn at the same time! Realistically that means you need financial success to be able create that on an ongoing basis! So think about what you want! and how are you going to create that?
On Monday, I will be interviewing Craig Miller - The Cake Coach, www.thecakecoach.com who is excellent marketing coach. Look at the name he uses! I was immediately attracted to what he offered! He is going to be sharing why small entrepeneurial businesses fail to get clients and steps need to succeed. That will include some great tips and tools on how to do that! This interview is going help you reach your dream!
The interview will take place on my radio show KtC Radio (link on side of page) on Monday 8th September at 7pm EST. If you aren’t able to listen live (and phone in to ask questions!) then listen to the archived podcast afterwards!
Don’t forget to register on www.blogtalkradio.com so you can particate in the chatroom during the live show, and you will also get reminders by email of when the shows will be on. Please rate the show once you have listened to it, so others will do the same! Thanks. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

Hi Everyone,
I am back from lovely Spain, ready to get cracking into that time that always seems like a clean slate – September!
I wrote a post on my other site, which I think might be of interest to you….here is an excerpt:
I came across an interesting blog which posted on an article about the sweetner Stevia. This has been seen by many to be a wonderful blessing – 300 times the sweetness of sugar and all natural! Well beware! There is a possibility that this natural herb is actually genetically toxic, and can affect fertility…..
If you would like to read more click on the link on the left handside for the LifeBalanceinFertility! Coach blog which is listed under the Fertility heading. This should interest anyone who wants to support others in taking natural herbs, supplements etc, or anyone who is taking Stevia or natural herbs.
making a point,
Coach Louise Crooks

I have just written a blog on my fertility weblog about this subject but it is such a powerful subject and so relevant to the readers (YOU) of this blog, that I felt compelled to write about it here!
Forgiveness is so important if you are looking for peace, health, freedom, and happiness. So few of us realise (so look hard and deep within yourself) that we harbor not just a little but sometimes a lot of resentment and bitterness, towards someone or something ( person or institution or country) even ourselves. This is literally poisoning your soul and body! I have read about tests they have done where they have tested saliva, and it is literally poisonous. Anyway before I get too carried away lets get back to the topic at hand!
Part of being healthy and happy is creating and allowing the ability to let go of the things we have been burdening ourselves with – often for years! If you are interested in Louise Hay’s work, she talks about how the emotions effect the body and the illnesses it produces. Heart attack = Anger, Cancer = Bitterness and Resentment. Are you making yourself ill? Is one of your clients making themselves ill? I know I did before I something about it!
These feelings also prevent us from achieving the things we want in life, through the emotional blocks we create, and the limiting beliefs we instill in our selves. We have a choice about whether we want to continue down that same path or not! Do you want to succeed? YOU are in charge.
Forgiveness doesn’t mean forgetting or condoning what that person / thing has done. Its an act of self-interest where we can let go, so we can move on, and allow the wonderful, loving and healthy things to show up in our lives. You know the adage about filling a vaccuum. So thats what you will be doing – bringing the things/emotions you want into your life and letting go of the misery and physical effects (aging, overeating…and the list goes on)!
I want to share a website that I am a member of that is a huge advocate of ‘forgiveness’ – they have lots of free teleclasses, newsletter, inspirations to give to their subscribers. So here is their link:
http://www.withforgiveness.com/events.html
Susyn and Sheri are hosting their next live teleclass on Tues 19th. So check it out. And don’t underestimate the power of forgiveness. It can be truly freeing. Holistic practitioners and coaches out there – let your clients know about this wonderful website. The subject of this event is: Forgiveness in Action – Simple Techniques for Big Results
(I will set up a link on the side of the page for future reference to the With Forgiveness website)
There is also another very powerful way to do this kind of work, and that is through courses that The Journey does. Brendan Bays got rid of her cancer this way. www.thejourney.com A great experience to recommend to your clients (and yourselves). I loved it. It was a truly amazing experience.
Freedom!
with love, and in the spirit of forgiveness,
Coach Louise Crooks
