    Enchantment in an e-mail
    from Dr. Barbara Becker Holstein
    January 2006

    Dear Min,

    Don't make resolutions this New Year, rather try this year to give yourself permission to love, appreciate and value yourself in many ways.  Productive self-love, that which takes into account your genuine talents, strengths, skills and even untapped potential, can only lead to you more successfully handling life as you live it.  You may even find yourself becoming a positive star in your personal world of family and friends as your charms radiate outward from the real essence that is you.  After all you are made up of so many wonderful positive assets.  I hope you will take pleasure in getting to know yourself this year-your Enchanted Self! 
     
    I hope you enjoy the article that follows, and make sure you take a look at the several special offers I've put together to get your positive energies flowing this January!  

     



    The Communal Sharing of Enchantment
    by Dr. Barbara Becker Holstein

    Experiencing The Enchanted Self is unique to each person. Yet the shared positive experience is an extremely important part of the enchantment. What would our world be like if everyone learned how to tap into their Enchanted Self (their positive states of mind and body)? I think, a more positive world, a place where people would communicate in a friendly manner, respectful of one another's uniqueness and feelings. 

    Have you encountered people who exude confidence and a sense of well being? Have you left the encounter feeling happier and more positive? Perhaps the next person you met had the opportunity to catch some of that positive energy. The truth is we all catch each other's moods and reactions. People often talk about how a smile brings on a smile. When we connect with our Enchanted Self, the joy and confidence we feel spreads to others. It becomes important to learn how to actually bring our positive states of being to the surface in such a way that others are encouraged to join in. 

    Certainly we all respond better to enthusiasm and praise than disparaging comments and criticisms. Unfortunately, most of us are already experts on negative thinking and harmful criticism. Being in a good mood and then finding one's self in a negative situation is a difficult spot to be in. How quickly a positive state of mind can be interrupted! 

    For instance, we may be in a wonderful mood only to enter the workplace or home and be met by a scowl, a frown, or negative remark from a coworker or family member. How quickly one's positive state of well being can dissipate. For example, if I walk into the house in a good mood and my mother, or my wife, or my husband, immediately barrages me with a list of things that I didn't take care of, or criticizes me for chores I didn't accomplish to their satisfaction, I will find the experience a clear interruption of my positive state of being. 

    However, if someone were to gently say, "Can you give me a few minutes? I want to go over some of the chores we had agreed to split," or "I want to check with you as to what has been done or what has not been done," then I may be able to maintain not only my state of well being, but be in a good enough mood to help improve the other person. 

    A speaker once compared giving constructive criticism to that of a sandwich. The first slice of bread is telling the person something honest and positive about that person. The filling consists of gently leading into a suggestion or sharing ones' feelings about how something is being done. The second slice of bread again finishes with positive reaction or remark to that person. 

    How desperately most of us need to practice the art of positive criticism. Learning to communicate effectively to maintain each other’s integrity and self esteem goes a long way toward creating and spreading positive, productive energy.
