Do you want to up your productivity, creativity and confidence?

Eileen Lichtenstein — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 12:29:04 +0000

Vacations are wonderful. No matter when or where- I am a big fan of time away with faith that it is the right time-place-people that you have arranged it with. It is extra wonderful when you make a pact of no phones- and no or occassional computer. Really! Some adjustments and maybe some extra down time- but hey isn’t that what you sign up for when its a vacation? I’m just back from Europe, jetlagged and refreshed at the same time. Ready to connect and reconnect. Be here in the right time-place: now. I even handled my emergency “root canal” OK and made clear choices.Throughout your day, it’s important to take “mini-vacations”. Take breaks throughout the work day to become centered and release stress/frustration. Did you know that when you have no stress you are 100% more productive. Of course, some stress is OK- and their is “good stress” too- like getting married, going on a vacation..Your body doesn’t know the difference, and the adrenalin and cortisol kick in. A long flight is a great place to practice relaxation techniques. Afraid of flying? I have facilitated amazing turn-arounds with EFT and de-sensitiving techniques that include visualization.

Stress is cumulative; dispersing it can shift productivity and up creativity and confidence. If you need help with this, you may contact me for a complimentary peak performance coaching consult. www.balanceandpower.com/stressmanagement.php. My one:one and group coaching sessions are conducted via phone, skype, and in Wantagh or RVC Long Island. I am also available to facilitate trainings in stress, anger management (I’m a certified AM specialist) and related issues via webinar and at your site.

On vacation with my family Costa del Sol.

I am excited that my online course is now available!!

Summer Fun and BP Venues

Eileen Lichtenstein — Sun, 26 Jun 2011 02:25:01 +0000

Are you SOARing! into summer?

Here in Long Island, NY everyone is participating in beach, boating, biking, bar-b-ques outdoor concerts and other fun. I hope that you can take a few days to relax, renew and recharge! I’m also in especially high spirits because all month we’ve had out of town company here- daughter Jess from London has come and gone and Ariel is here now from Madrid with her Spanish boyfriend. It makes me happy that they have made wonderful lives for themselves and that we are closer than ever..and that we still have the house that they grew up in to enjpy each other’s energy!

There are a few venues I’m really excited about that I’m facilitaing and connected with that I want you to know about, and I’m the star of my own TV show!! Find out more

I’m taking a hiatus from the radio shows for two weeks and will return at my regular Weds. 4PM EST spot. You may listen to archives.

I encourage you to read and comment on my blogs:

London Fun!

Eileen Lichtenstein — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 22:24:27 +0000

The front row of upper level of double decker bus is the best seating . Any seat at The Royal Albert Hall is fantastic- and the sound for Mark Knopfler & his band was super..great to hear the old faves “Sultan of Swing”, etc. and new music too. Pub lunch-supper (lupper?) by the Thames was lovely and the gardens! And many meals of ethnic food throughout the week that flew by. Every street holds history, fashion and interesting people. The Arsenal Stadium stands proud across the road from our flat
that we’ll be bidding goodby to tomarrow, ready to fly home to summer in Long Island. Cheers!

Hi Eileen! Sounds like you had a great time in Europe. Wish I was there with you. xoxo Good to have you back.

Great to be back, and whew! re JFK drama intrigue last night when we landed…Home now- some drama-intrigue at JFK last night:
they said that they were switching gates and immigration had to be set up. we were not allowed to get out of our seats while we sat for 45 minutes and the pilots said soon, soon and soon.
then the 10 federal marshalls came on the plane in formation and went right to the back part of the plane. we were in the front. they proceeded to take out two guys, one big and mean looking that I had noticed in Heathrow, and all their stuff. they may have taken another man also or he might have been involved in the raid. they came back in five minutes and took another guy off with all his stuff. then the pilot told us we could all leave. we flew through customs and immigration.

This is one that probably wont make the news..and happens more often than any of us wants to consider..
If the flight attendants-crew knew this all along they sure put on a good show- something seemed fishy when we landed really quickly at K (with bad weather) and no time for clean up- they said to store our food trays under seats.

Steve and I were a bit “wound up” and easily made it up to midnight (5AM London time) so no jet lag this AM- that’s the small upside of this story. I was amazed at how I didnt have a panic response as many of the passengers did..not even a delayed one. Only “wound up”. I’ll take that .

Allowing the ash to settle..

Eileen Lichtenstein — Mon, 10 May 2010 16:51:54 +0000

I’m referring to the ash of recent volcanic eruption that has caused disruption in international travel. My recent blog, “Strategies for Emotional Flexibility” and all the Stress Management tips I know & teach havent yet settled my unease re the flights around this trip. We are planning to leave in 2 days: Thursday afternoon, Kennedy-Madrid, with a flight Malaga-London 5/26 and then back to NY June 1. Thanks in advance for the power of collective positive energy. I know that stress is about feeling out of control and that 92% of worry is about circumstances we cannot change. With that said, I could be packing instead of writing this blog now (even tho it’s a great release to blog abt something like this..) and I continue to tap throughout the day with ash settled being my newest tapping phrase! I’ve always had some issues with packing- and am so much better at it now and am evidently procrastinating- another fear issue..am I afraid I wont “have enough” or “just in case” if we’re stranded in Europe- and that scenario can be terrific actually- so I must focus on taking the most important items and nothing else. We still need to deal with the luggage-weight issues and are bringing our daughter a new computer among other things! The Euro is so low now we can buy anything needed for bargain prices~

Traveling can be chaotic- and I have coached many people to successfully overcome fear of flying and packing anxiety. The “ash fear” and related issues can be conquered too. Onward!

Thanks for the collective ear, friends!

SYNERGY!(c) Eileen Lichtenstein 2010

Eileen Lichtenstein — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 00:03:38 +0000

SYNCHRONICITY-SERENDIPITY-SYNERGY are wonderfully timed scenarios-circumstances; it’s fabulous that the English language provides us with these feel-good words…
Lately, my career/collaborations as well as family events and relationships are feeling that way/all good! My current involvement with The R.E.D. Team: Recharge-Empower-Develop You and Your Family (for additional insight view http://www.balanceandpower.com/events.php) is a perfect example: as I placed myself in different Long Island networking events, my intention being to meet powerful people to collaborate with , I newly connected with my three wonderful R.E.D. Team colleagues..and subsequently learned that we are of the four Eastern/astrological signs: Earth, Wind, Fire, Water. In case you’re wondering, I’m the bull-Taurus-Earth gal.

As for family, we had a wonderful celebration of our daughter Jessica’s marriage to Mark Peachy of England in a wonderful Long Island venue. They’re living in London, near the soccer stadium where Arsenal team plays, in a recently restored area in Islington. There were lots of friend/family history at our celebration, including Mom’s Brooklyn friends whom she hasn’t been able to see in many years- and lived in our neighborhood when I was growing up..and my friend from public school -present at the party- who knows them as well..and my brother who “played over” at their homes.. Of course my daughter Ariel and her boyfriend Xabi residing in Madrid are highlights of this time as well! You can read more about my former personal “empty-nested” experience and giving the children “roots and wings” in my new publication SOAR!™ with Resilience.

London Fun with Daughters Catch-up

Eileen Lichtenstein — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 20:34:34 +0000

My trip last month was fantastic- quality-fun time with Jess who lives in London and Ariel, who flew in from Madrid to be with us (they took a few vacation days.) And Mark sometimes- Jess’s British husband. My first time flying alone to Europe since college- a landmark! and all girl talk/shopping/eating/fun Brit TV/ pubs and no schedule! And pajama parties and a show!
Highly recommended!
