I am extremely pleased to announce the completion of my new e-book and audio book Living in Balance – How to Consciously Shift from Stress to Success. You may download your own free copy by following the link above.

Background

When I was diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in December 2003, I was living a life that was clearly out of balance. Furthermore, my actions were out of alignment with my priorities and personal values. My diagnosis, while I wish it on no one, was the wake up call that I needed to create balance in my life.

Since that date, my life has been focused on the conscious creation of a balanced, fulfilling and sustainable lifestyle. Furthermore, I’ve committed myself to supporting others as a life and wellness coach, in their pursuits of the balanced life. When I started writing the personal development articles found throughout this site, I decided to share tips, suggestions and ‘coaching’ on topics related to creating more balance in life. Each article averages 2-4 ‘book pages’, which provides substantially more detail than most blogs would provide on similar topics. Regardless, it’s difficult to cover a large topic like ‘how to consciously shift from stress to success’, without writing a ridiculously long entry or a series of blog articles packaged in a less than convenient reading format. This e-book is the response to providing timely content in an appropriate distribution format for all of my readers to enjoy.

E-Book Summary

Living in Balance – How to Consciously Shift from Stress to Success is a 42 page pdf file that is designed to be a quick read and reference guide to return to regularly. The focus of the book is to provide the ‘wakeup call’ for someone looking to shift their lifestyle, as well as to provide a strategy and proven methodology answering the question ‘how do I create change?’. Without providing too much detail, here are fundamental building blocks of the book:

Becoming aware and facing of your current situation truthfully with yourself
The power of the decision to change
How to consciously intend and create the situation you desire
Preparing oneself for action and success through challenges
Overcoming the momentum for maintaining old habits
Coming to your answers yourself
Powerful coaching questions provided throughout to invoke personal inquiry and inspiration

This book follows the format for what a coach might work through with a client focused on creating less stress and more life balance. Often clients need to hear themselves verbalize their situation, they need to listen to their inner wisdom, to have an ‘aha’ moment, and they need to come to terms with this themselves. The coach provides a safe place for a client to verbalize their desires, they ask questions to bring out what is truly important, and they build a compelling vision for what is to come. Lastly, a coach provides accountability in moving forward. This e-Book provides every step mentioned with the exception of the accountability. Should you embrace the vision you create by reading this book, you’ll be well on your way to defining your own accountability structure to successfully bring about a more balanced lifestyle.

Audio Book

I myself, love to listen to audio books while I am driving my car. What a great way to educate oneself during an otherwise mindless commute. For this reason, I’ve also recorded an audio version of the eBook which can be downloaded for just $9.99. Visit my eBook page if you’d like to purchase a copy. I encourage you to download the eBook first, read or browse through the content and if you like what you see, support this site by making the purchase. Don’t worry, there are no commitments when you download the eBook, and you will not be overwhelmed with marketing materials. I respect your email address and your privacy.

The audio format can be downloaded instantly and fits cleanly onto one CD (its just under 70 minutes). The content is identical to the print version of the book.

I am grateful for your support and am excited that this material is finally complete for distribution to all my readers for free. I encourage you to share your free eBook with others that may benefit as well!
