Asking for Help

by Wendy Strgar October 15, 2014

giving1resized“Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them.” -Dalai Lama

 

I spend most of my days trying to help but am only just learning how to receive help. The weakest link and most meaningful learning in my fledgling practice to receive help is in having the courage to ask and believe I can get the help I need.  This applies to everything from cleaning up a 100 year mess I inherited behind my house, to figuring out how to connect to my teenage daughter. The more I practice this often overlooked skill, the more I realize just how far a little help goes.

Truth is that both giving and receiving help are 2 sides of the same coin and for all the giving I did for years without the capacity to receive, I now understand how the giving was a burden rather than a joy – a transformation which happens naturally when the help goes both ways.

This column is a space where I have been remiss in not reciprocating in asking for help. So here I am asking-  I have to hit 250 votes to qualify for a Chase competition which would allow us to grow our capacity, our communication and our unique brand of love in the world.  Please take a minute to help with a vote of confidence.

Go here to vote!

Help us compete for a  $150,000 small business grant from Chase Mission Mainstreet by this Friday (10/17). 

Share this link with a friend or two or three –

With love and gratitude for your help.

Wendy

Sexy Kissing Through Scent

by Wendy Strgar February 21, 2019

Our sense of smell is ancient and the source of our most powerful emotional memories. It is also the primal sensory pathway to sexual attraction. And yet, we often give little attention to all that our sense of smell can evoke, in part because we have so little vocabulary for scent. Often we're limited to “it smells like…” and delineated only between pleasant and unpleasant.

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, here is an idea that not only promises to make the holiday more enjoyable, but also has the potential to benefit your relationship for months afterward: working with the contradictions in your heart by finding balance and even synergy between seemingly opposing emotions.

3 Ways to Not Ruin Valentine’s Day

by Wendy Strgar January 24, 2019

Most people are unaware that Valentine’s Day is one of the biggest break-up holidays of the year. It seems like an oxymoron that the holiday of love would be the one that often breaks the camel’s back, but that’s what happens when we expect a single day to make up for the benign neglect that our relationships are too often steeping in.
