Are your emotions making you sick?

‘I can’t (insert desire)’. Sure you CAN!

Tamra MerciecaBlogs, Mental HealthLeave a Comment

What happens when you say you ‘I can’t do it’? It automatically sets up an expectation that you can’t do whatever it is that you would like to do.

When we ‘make’ love, are … Read More

The intuitive power of the heart

Tamra MerciecaBlogs, Relationship HealthLeave a Comment

Have you ever played Chinese whispers? One person whispers a message into the next person’s ear, then they do the same to the next person, and so forth, until the message finally gets around the circle and the last person announces the message they received.
