ABOUT THE TOOLS

Bec H, masseuse

The most important thing to me in my life is to feel safe in myself, to feel whole and like I’m in harmony. Sometimes it is a challenge for me to achieve this state of whole self-balance on the inner, whilst encountering the outer world. Through my practice of (the techniques), I have learned to identify and evaluate my experience of inner balance and to use these findings to make adjustments to become more whole in myself.

AND I meant to tell you... the receptionist i was having problems with has been sorted :) I took her out to lunch....after doing the visuals etc.  I feel completely different when i think of her now. No automatic thoughts of "my Nemesis" or uncomfortable gut pain
 
big smiles :)
and thanks xx

Pia S, nurse, parent, personal empowerment for women facilitator

I have been thinking of getting back to you with a progress report and it is good. With using the visualizations, Disentangling and Anchoring the light daily, and other higher self connections, at times I have had some real breakthroughs.

I have noticed an amazing mellowing and less frantic attitude from my son.

I had a minor tiff with a close friend and I sat still and focused on how to settle the turmoil in me. I did the visualization for emotional relationships & the Archangel. This seemed to really settle me...and I then used the Disentangling one, and at the end of that I sent love. I felt calmer but separate, and every time I do this visual now I give love to those I feel need it...

I am stunned at the subtle but clear way the methods have been helping. I have to say that I am now more in me, and not so push-pull about the desires external to me. It feels so nice. The anger I spoke of earlier seems to have abated.

Ellen R, Community development officer

It sure saves a lot of time having a visualization to work with rather than the process I have used over the years - still got there but sometimes very slowly!!!)

Estelle A, Chinese healing practitioner

"I've been working with the self-acceptance visualization that you sent in your last email. I have done it many times over the last month and feel much better about myself. I've found my incompetence dreams have changed for the better. (I've been plagued with these dreams for at least 20 years.) I can see how this agitation /anxiety to change myself because somehow there is something wrong with me …has left me quite exhausted and unhappy.

Hi Suzie,

Further thoughts on the love technique

What I have noticed is that it is less of an effort to send love in that it is not so much an act of will. It is more a relaxing of defences (I think). It also seems people respond more warmly than when I send light alone. I think light can be a bit intimidating without love.

A woman at work I have had conflict with was actually warm and friendly to me the other day. I notice at home I am less bothered by things and do not get into conflict with my flat mate so much. I told him not to snap at me the other day and he apologized - so that is progress all round.

ABOUT MENTORING

Jess L, teacher and horse trainer, recommending Reach Potential mentoring to a friend

You will love Suzie! It's crazily random what she gets you to do, but it is really powerful and allows you the opportunity to grow and learn so much!

Steven C, University graduate, librarian

When I first made contact with Reach Potential just under a year ago my life was falling apart. It took a number of false starts to eventually make the commitment, yet once I decided to engage with the process the transformation has truly been as if by magic. I now have a greater self-confidence in dealing with the pressures of life, a heightened appreciation of beauty and an increased level of respect for myself.

The mentoring process is remarkable. It is like a whole-self scaffolding that allows you to build in strategies for managing your daily life. I look forward to emailing Suzie with my difficulties and insights. The feedback provided is extremely accurate and leads to increasing self-reliance. You learn how to create and apply your own solution to a presenting problem by understanding how to utilise the visualisations effectively.

This program is not about getting ‘fixed’ but rather learning how to harness and channel love energy, because this is essentially what heals. As I continue to clear fear, disentangle from others and move into greater whole-self alignment I am approaching my goal of becoming a ‘lighthouse’ – a person who chooses to be at peace with self and thus transforms the world.

I thank Suzie and Fiona from the bottom of my heart for showing me the way.

Jullie S, Accounts manager

I was told about RP by a friend at the same time that I had given up on doing anymore Personal Development programs because I was getting in debt and still couldn’t get a handle on my deep sadness. As I see it now it was a stroke of luck that Suzie and Fiona agreed to come and do a workshop in our area. I went along reluctantly but I trusted my friend’s recommendation. What I have learnt since is how destructive my negative ego was being and I believed everything it was telling me…. ‘I can’t do that’, ‘I can’t have that’, ‘I didn’t do it right’ etc etc. It was the best decision I made to have online mentoring with Suzie, in just under 3 months I stopped longing and started creating, my sadness has completely gone, I have more energy, in control of my emotions and negative ego and my life, calmer, more self loving and fulfilled and I have created full time work which I love and a loan to pay off my debt. I am so thankful to the RP material, my life is back on track I feel truly happy and blessed.

Jennifer B, Farmer

The mentoring course has helped me to feel less anxious in confronting situations, to identify how I am really feeling about particular issues, and to express how I feel in a way that is acceptable. It has helped me understand that sometimes it is necessary to set boundaries with those around me for my own peace of mind. I have been able to identify my personal strengths and draw on them when needed…. I am starting to accept myself as I am.

ABOUT THE PROCESSES

 Basil E, artist, writer, teacher

Take mah hand brothers, take mah hand sisters, and Ah will lead ye to a path, a process, more rare and fabulous than anything you have previously imagined. Ah will take your fears and insecurities and dissolve them in holy, pure, and all loving light! Ah come to share the good news with you…. OK, enough of the guff.

The Reach Potential process is so much more than another modality for healing. It provides the tools so that you can actively change your life, instantly, for the better. The steps are incremental, but RP changed my life from day one, connecting me so deeply with my core, and my light, that I now hardly recognise myself. It is rewiring at a cellular, energetic level. My gratitude is profound.

Lian V, counsellor and mother of 2, describes using Reach Potential material

I've been thinking of writing a blurb to let you know how I've been going with  using the RP material.
 
Basically I've been doing lots of anchoring, clearing fears, disentangling, some negative ego and subpersonality work, talking with my son's higher self, connecting with my soul family and asking for their help,  and connecting with my heart .
 
Now I'm looking at self-value (resisted that for a while).  I've been choosing visualisations according to my present moment concerns, time available and energy levels as well as noticing which ones I'm drawn to and which ones I seem to have a resistance too!
 
What's been happening in my life is that I went overseas, then started a new job which I'm really enjoying and we bought a house and yesterday we sold our house.  In all this, I've been using the above visuals and things have been smooth.
 
Yes, there are areas where I am out of balance, but I look upon that with more acceptance and curiosity rather than a crisis.  Expansion and contraction.
 
My boys overall are doing well and it’s more about me keeping on clearing my fears and being present with them (and myself) in relationship rather than focused upon what task I want accomplished.  I still get angry - but I have the anger letters etc to follow ( and I recognise there's some procrastination about that!).

David B, entrepreneurial business development 

I realise I shouldn’t be surprised…! But there have been two recent examples of the wonderful RP material working so well that I wanted to share.
 
First of all my horrid cold that I had last workshop evening. I did exactly as Fiona said, and didn’t take any drugs, allowed it to do its thing. As a result the cold was gone in 3 days! Unheard of for me. None of the 10 days of coughing afterwards either. Just cleared. That is how I will be dealing with colds from now on!
 
Secondly I had a moment on Friday night when I went into the overwhelm feeling I described in the session. I could feel anger rising like a wave to overwhelm me. So I recalled my favourite thing like we did, and I visualised putting my two hands together…
 
Instant! The anger completely disappeared. De-fused, drained, gone, whatever. Quite amazing. The issues were still there to be discussed of course, so it wasn’t like it was denial, or brushed under the carpet – it just defused the overwhelm, and allowed me to deal with it in a calm way.  This is the first time I have ever been able to completely stop that anger overwhelming me. That is probably the most valuable technique I have ever learned!
 
Many thanks to all!   

Virginia B, Property investor and mentor

What has RP done for me?  I have learnt to "go with the flow" more when challenges or dramas occur in my life.  It is wonderful that as a human being that I have that support spiritually and also the ability to listen to my "higher self" on a more consistent basis.  I am acknowledging my feelings more often instead of using my logical mind to overcome challenges.  I am thoroughly enjoying my work with Suzie through the Online Mentoring.  I share my "insights" and also receive help to move through challenges in a beautiful way, where love and light shows me the way.  My life is moving quickly, however I'm feeling this love and peace within. Thank you to Jullie for introducing me to RP and many thanks to Suzie and Fiona for the gift they share. 

Linda K, counsellor
What I really like about this process is that it's wholistic - that is, it includes all the different aspects of the Self.  That allows it to be grounded, real, and lasting.  I like its structure and clarity, and the fact that it involves a daily practice of writing a log and doing some visuals.  This doesn't take alot of time, but it helps to keep you focussed on the changes you want to make.   The self-reflection you do as you go along helps your awareness to grow.  I am doing the process via the net and the email mentoring - I really value the communication and Suzie's perspective and suggestions.   I am really enjoying the whole process, and I am seeing changes in myself after 4 months - more and more able to let go of some very old and recalcitrant patterns.  Feels great!

And after mentoring was completed ...

Dear Suzie
 
I met this weekend with my Women's Group who have known me for 25 years, and I wanted to let you know about some feedback they've given me. It's about seeing me empowered in a very balanced way, able to make my contribution in the world, with an absence of depletion and martyrdom. I have said that I feel the work with Reach Potential has been the source of this empowerment.
 
At work, I've had such positive feedback about the quality of my energy.  Personally, I feel an outpouring of Love, like a channelling of the light.  I feel more and more trusting of the path of Spirit. I wanted to let you know, and thank you and Fiona's guidance for it.  Blessings to you.

Working with this program helped me transform limitations in my perceptions of WHO I WAS and WHAT I COULD DO in life slowly and realistically. Now I am not afraid of either the great changes which are occurring in my life or the quantity of energy and creativity within me. Reach Potential has given me the tools and the support to harness it. It is not a prescriptive program (which I couldn’t bear!) but a system that responds to my own uniqueness. When I look out at the beauty and crises in the world there is so much to celebrate and so much to be done. And so much more to discover within myself. This program has helped me truly step up to the plate.

Brian L, investor

Thoughts on what I've learned so far: Life's about living feeling good about all your stuff-ups, about knowing that every stuff-up is just as important as every great perfect thing you do. Why? It's the doing that counts as that is what makes you feel alive, important, and have inner peace. Still learning about this inner peace - at this stage I know it includes meaningful self-respect - and the respect of others which follows self-respect. I think true inner peace is about loving yourself and what you are right now---being blissfully happy by being in control of your life.

Peter M, paramedic

This material has changed my perspective. I’m more relaxed. I don’t get so caught up in the dramas of life. It develops wisdom – the essence of things as opposed to ‘knowledge.’
