No More Monkey's Jumping in My Head

Little kids love to jump on beds. It’s fun, but also can be dangerous. Somemay have heard their parents sing an old children’s song, “No more monkey’s jumping on the bed!” That lullaby was not enough to get the kids from jumping on the bed. Many people have mind chatter that’s like little kids jumping on the bed.

How do we stop the chatter from jumping around in our minds? One technique that has been proven to be efficient and is used as an alternative to traditional Psychology, is Life Coaching.

History has shown that talking to a professional such as a Psychiatrist or a Psychologist can help some keep their sanity and to keep thoughts in line with whatever we are seeking. However that experience can be quite depressing and costly. Some Psychiatrist’s prescribe pills to treat symptoms which do not always get to the root of the problem and may cause long term effects on our bodies. Studies have shown, the average human being has over 60,000 thoughts rolling around in their minds a day. That’s a lot of thoughts!

Does prescribing a pill really get to the root cause of all the mind chatter? How can we control our lives and our desires if we have all these thoughts rolling around?

Many people today have a lot going on in their lives; family, friends, work, and other responsibilities. Keeping everything together can be a balancing act. Our thoughts can be out of whack, negative, or may lead us to making choices that we are unsure of. Life Coaches assist people with finding the answers they seek within themselves. They use listening techniques and ask detailed open ended questions that get clients to dig deep within themselves to find the answers they are looking for. Coaches look for what is right with their client and not what genetics has proven them to be. They hold their clients accountable in doing work that gets the client to where they want to go. Coaching is an effective tool that helps people with results they are looking for and for controlling the monkeys jumping in our heads.
