LIANNE SNOW:
This month's RECEPTIVITY theme has been on my mind quite a while. I've known since the beginning it would be about frequencies. I knew it would be about 'tuning in' but beyond that, nothing.

Don't Rain on the Parade
Why do we have cheerleaders?
RICK HANSON:
The Practice ~ Don't rain on the parade. Why? Let's say you've had an interesting idea or moment of inspiration, or thought of a new project, or felt some enthusiasm bubbling up inside you.

Connecting With Others
DR. JOE RUBINO:
All too often, we live our lives in a state of isolation, keeping others out in an effort to protect ourselves from losing our identity and a sense of control.

Listening Your Way to Greatness
DR. JOE RUBINO:
What you listen for in your conversations with others determines what you will get out of them. All too often, we listen to others in a casual or unfocused way. As a result, we come away with little from the conversation. In fact, we typically find ourselves listening to our own thoughts and internal chatter instead of to the other person. Read more >>>
