Dr. Adrianne Ahern Demonstrates How to Jump Start Your Career and Retrain Your Brain for Success at Press Club Workshop

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Sun, 20 Dec 2009 19:35:00 +0000

The following is a press release for a workshop I will be conducting at the Fleet Science Center in San Diego on Saturday January 16, 2010.

San Diego Press Club Sponsors workshop to jump start your career:

Here’s a big idea to take very seriously: we can – and do -- send ourselves uninvited messages that may be negative or limiting enough to impede our lives and progress.

That’s the theory proposed by psychotherapist, author and television personality Dr. Adrianne Ahern, who will expand on this theme at “Snap Out of it - NOW!” on Saturday, Jan. 16 from 9 a.m. - 1 p.m. at the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center in Balboa Park, sponsored by the San Diego Press Club.

“Ever have a goal that you can’t seem to attain or a habit you can’t break? That’s because the hard-wiring of your brain is sabotaging your efforts and controlling your physiology, “ says Dr. Ahern.

Dr. Ahern’s “Snap Out of it - NOW” Four-Step method will help attendees remove barriers to reaching their goals, respond positively and effectively to change, reduce the negative impacts of a stressful life, and more. Her book will be available for sale. She will be assisted by clinical psychologist Marian Edelbrock, Ph.D, and Brandon Moreno, a Human Resource consultant and executive coach.

Reservations, free to S. D. Press Club members and, as a service to the community, $20 to non-members, may be made via www.sdpressclub.org, or by phoning Executive Director Terry Williams, 619-231-4340. A complimentary continental breakfast will be served.

San Diego Psychotherapy Practitioner Teaches How to Rewire Brain at Warwick's in La Jolla

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 15:53:00 +0000

Science has figured out that repeated thoughts actually carve neuro-pathways into the brain. The thought becomes hard-wired into your brain. Think about it -- when a self-limiting thought is carved in like that, it doesn't just affect your thinking. It affects your entire physiology and determines how you act and react to the situations in you life.

The GOOD NEWS is that you can consciously re-wire your brain so that your conditioned beliefs and attitudes support you, embrace positive change, help you feel empowered in challenging times like these. And when you feel empowered? You come up with brilliant ideas, effective strategies, innovative solutions.

Join me at Warwick's Books in La Jolla, California on October 14th at 7:30pm and hear me explain how you can get "Back in Charge!" and start living your life by choice, no longer by automatic reactions that keep you stuck unable to reach your goals.

Get "Back in Charge!" at Warwick's in La Jolla

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 17:54:00 +0000

Times are tough. Things are changing and often we feel as if the sand is shifting under our feet and everything feels unstable. Most of us are resistant to change. Join me at Warwick’s Bookstore in La Jolla, CA on October 14th at 7:30pm and I will explain why that’s so.

Rewire Your Brain - Free Yourself from Limiting Beliefs

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Sun, 20 Sep 2009 16:52:00 +0000

As I sit in my therapy and coaching office in San Diego's Carmel Valley, I acknowledge that at the end of my journey of writing books and producing a TV show, I have successfully rewired the neuropathways of my brain--no longer am I the panic-stricken speaker I was when I first began to public speak while doing a post-doctoral fellowship at San Diego's Mercy Hospital; no longer am I the doubt-filled writer that needed to leave San Diego to write her book without any distractions; and, no longer am I the intimidated and tongue-tied TV & Radio guest that I was during the first media tour back in 2006. In my acknowledgment of this, I feel grateful that I am now in the position to work individually with others and help them break free from the limiting beliefs and attitudes that are blocking their efforts at achieving their goals.

How to Breathe Your Way to Balance

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 16:57:00 +0000

I have been home from Hawaii a week now, and as promised will share one of my new tools I learned from Dr. George Pratt during the Power of Energy V Seminar. You all know how central to the effectiveness of the Snap Out Of It NOW! processes that belly breathing is, now here is a tool that can instantly bring you to a state of relaxed focus wherever you may find yourself! The tool is called, Balanced Breathing -- you'll find yourself feeling centered and balanced and ready for any challenges you face.

Sitting in a comfortable position:

Cross your left ankle over your right ankle.
Extend both arms straight out in front of you.
Cross your right arm over your left arm at the wrist.
Rotate the palms of your hands so that they are facing and interlock your fingers.
Rotate your hands down toward your stomach.
Continue rotating inward so that you bring your hands up close to your chest. At this point you have crossed the center line of your body with your hands, arms, and legs.

Note: If it is more comfortable for you, you can reverse the order--right ankle over left, left wrist over right. It doesn't make a difference, as long as they are opposite.

Once in the proper position, inhale through your nose while touching the tip of your tongue to the roof of your mouth. Exhale through your mouth, resting your tongue on the floor of your mouth. (Do this for 2-minutes)

Focus your thoughts on the concept of balance. It might be the idea of the balance of mind and body or just the word "balance." At the same time picture in your mind, if you can, an image that represents balance. This could be the image of a scale, or a seesaw, or standing on one foot. Throughout the two-minute process, breathe comfortably. Don't worry it you are not always able to hold the thought or image; come back to it if you drift away.

The above is taken verbatim from Dr. Pratt's book, Instant Emotional Healing, (page 254)

The Power of Simple Kindness

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Sat, 05 Sep 2009 23:42:00 +0000

Still on the Big Island of Hawaii, after an excellent seminar with Dr.
George Pratt--"Power of Energy." I am sitting on the beach listening
to David Hawkins' book, "Power Vs. Force ," this Saturday afternoon on
Labor Day Weekend, and was struck by the simple and profound truth of the
following excerpt from the audio book, which I highly recommend
buying!

"... What we do to benefit life, automatically benefits all of us because
we are all included in that which is life. We are life. It is a
scientific fact that what is good for you, is good for me. Simple
kindness to oneself and all that lives is the most powerful
transformational force of all. It produces no backlash, has no
downside, and never leads to loss or despair. It increases ones own
true power without exacting any toll...."
Aloha,
Adrianne

Energy Psychology Workshop. V

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 15:56:00 +0000

On the beach at Kohala Coast Fairmont Orchid on the first day of the
Energy Psychology Seminar with Dr. George Pratt. In the photo, Dr. Pratt is muscle testing my new friend Joanne, after clearing an old negative pattern from her childhood that has been blocking her for years. Amazing stuff!

What is Energy Psychology?

Essentially, it is an emerging area of
psychology where anceint wisdom meets modern science. The work of Dr. George Pratt is an exciting blend of Cognitive Psychology and
Acupuncture. It offers an effective and efficient way to clear
anything off our brain's hardwiring that no longer serves us--e.g.,
those persisting negative thoughts & emotions that are the saboteur of
our goals. AND, this is why I am here -- to incorporate these
seemingly "too good to be true" new and effective tools into my Snap
Out Of It NOW! processes! I want to make it as easy and effortless as
possible for my clients to cleanse the old conditioning that no longer
serves them in order to wire in more positive and empowering thoughts,
beliefs, and feelings that support all they want to do, be, and have
in life.

Stay tuned! Today, I swim with the magnificent spinner dolphins of
Hawaii, who I anticipate may be my greatest teachers.
With an open heart,
Adrianne

Tomorrow we start with Yoga at 7:45 AM and then we begin the "Energy
Psychology" seminar with Dr. George Pratt. I wil be learning new
tools to help clients Snap Out of their negative patterns! Stay tuned
for daily postings!

Del Mar Sunset

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Sat, 29 Aug 2009 02:17:00 +0000

As I prepare for a seminar on the big island of Hawaii, I find myself
hanging out at sunset at 15th Street in Del Mar. The waves are glassy,
the palm trees sway, the balmy air kisses my skin and I'm listening to
Mariachi music as people populate the beach for the big moment when
the sun sinks into the ocean.

I will keep you posted with sunset moments and you tell me whether
Hawaii or Del Mar is more blessed by our magnificent sun.

With an open heart,
Adrianne

Do you yearn for positive change and transformation?

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 13:00:00 +0000

Though many of us yearn for positive change and transformation, our conscious or unconscious conditioned beliefs may tell us that we really do not have the ability to become substantially different or better than who we have been. Do any of these statements ring true to you?

You can't teach an old dog new tricks
This is just the way life is; we have to accept it
You have to be born in the right place at the right time to make it
You have to get the breaks and the right circumstances to be successful
You can't have it all. Getting by is good enough
Most of us just aren't cut out for greatness

Some of us firmly believe these statements to be true. Others claim that they believe in unlimited human potential. But when it gets right down to it, almost all of us honestly experience life in terms of one or more of the limiting statements above.

Human potential is the hope, but life's limitations feel like the reality.

You may not ever say these statements out loud. You may even argue against them, using the positive self-talk of recent decades. But take a moment: In your heart of hearts, do any of those statements seem like the whole truth and nothing but the truth? Deep down, do you trust these "reality" statements more than the possibility of transformation? If so, these beliefs have been hardwired into your brain and will sabotage any personal growth program you begin--and probably have done so in the past.

I am not asking you to just believe and trust in the possibility of your own transformation. Those limiting "reality" statements, like all conditioning, are hardwired in and need to be unplugged and rewired to release their power. ... I'll show you how to do this in future chapters....

(Above is an excerpt from the fist chapter of, "Back in Charge!")

Who's the Liar?

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 16:00:00 +0000

Let's see how your brain operates to discern subtle information. Here are two videos of the same person. In one, he is telling a story which is true. In the other, he is telling a lie. I have the sound turned off, so just by looking at him, see if you can guess which is which.

By the time we become adults, we're all unconscious experts at body language, so pay special attention to his eyes, his gestures, his breathing and see if you can tell who's the liar?

How many of you think that he's lying in the one on the right?

How many think it's the one on the left?

If you thought it was the one of the right, think for a moment, "why?"

And, if you thought he was lying in the one of the left -- think of your reasoning for making this decision.

Okay.... so, now that you've come up with a very good rationale for your opinion, let me just tell you that the only liar in this situation is ME! This guy in the video was actually reciting poetry, the same poem in fact. But because I convinced you that one was a lie, your brain pulled itself together and gave you concrete, well-thought through evidence for one or the other. You actually "saw" things differently.

Pretty amazing, huh?

No Bad Emotions

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Sun, 23 Aug 2009 13:00:00 +0000

"Anyone can become angry--that is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, and at the right time, and for the right purpose, and in the right way--that is not easy." -- Aristotle

My friend and colleague, Dr. George Pratt, writes in his book, "Instant Emotional Healing" (Broadway Books, 2000) that there are "no bad emotions." (I really recommend you pick this book up on Amazon.)

I quote directly from the book: "There is no such thing as a wrong emotion, only the wrong amount of the emotion at the wrong time. ... Even emotions we tend to think of as "negative" serve natural and useful regulating roles in our overall functioning: Frustration, impatience, disgust, and anger can spur us into productive action. Anxiety and irritability let us know when we've been pushing too hard and can remind us to slow down and relax. Loneliness can lead us to a deeper understanding of ourselves. Grief helps us heal from loss. Guilt keeps us honest. ..."

I really like the way George and his co-author Peter Lambrou guide the reader toward heightened levels of self-awareness, assisting him/her in seeing that when they are aware of the "negativity" within, they instantly have the power to use it to their benefit. And, if the negative emotion is no longer serving them, he shows the reader how to release it from their system entirely!

How does Your Brain Operate to Solve Problems?

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 14:00:00 +0000

Let's see how the brain operates to solve problems... If you want to experience this exercise, it is very important that you do not skip ahead and read the material below where you are at the moment.

I’m going to show you two sets of puzzles. This isn't a test where you get graded on how well you do. But I want you to pay attention to how your brain approaches these puzzles. The first set is very easy and almost everyone can solve it with no problem. But, however you see it, don't worry about it. Just pay attention to your process.

Take just a few minutes with this set of puzzles:

1) What common 3-letter word can go into every blank below to make another word?

NIS

S CIL

KIT

2) What number goes in the blank box so the 4 numbers in both sets total the same number?

The next set of puzzles is much more difficult. I've seen Mensa members who couldn't solve it. The problems may look obvious on the surface but they aren't. Even when you think you've got the right answer, you probably won't. But still just work on the problems and see what you come up with. And notice how your brain is trying to tackle them.

Take a few moments with these puzzles:

3) Cross off 4 letters in this word to come up with a vegetable:

CHLORINE

4) A deli has 2 types of bread, 3 kinds of cheese, and 3 kinds of meat. Customers can choose one type of bread, one cheese and one meat for their sandwich. How many variations of sandwiches can there be?

Now, think about for a moment how those two experiences were different for you.

Before we go any further, let me confess that the second set of puzzles was not really harder. Both of these come from an elementary school level puzzle book. But what happened to your ability to solve the puzzle when you believed it was impossible?

What Controls Your Outcomes -- Your Brain or Circumstance?

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Fri, 21 Aug 2009 13:00:00 +0000

How many of you saw the moon-walking bear the first time through?
How does that relate to us right now? Well, if you’re conditioned to focus on how bad the economy is, how many businesses have closed in your industry, how many other people have lost money…well, that's what you are going to see. Your brain will not let you see the moon-walking bear or that unusual opportunity or that potential solution to your situation. But if you re-wire your brain—your internal authority—to start looking for the moon-walking bear, your brain will let you see it.
Start confronting the limiting beliefs and attitudes that are holding you back from achieving all you want to have, do, and be in life!

How Do We Become Conditioned or Hardwired in the First Place?

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 16:24:00 +0000

Science has figured out that repeated thoughts actually carve neuro-pathways into the brain. The thought becomes hard-wired into your brain. And when a thought is carved in like that, it doesn't just affect your thinking. It affects your entire physiology.

Why Affirmations, Goal Setting, and Positive Thinking Do NOT Work?

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 21:05:00 +0000

I will be doing a radio interview tomorrow morning with “The Coaching Show with Christopher McAuliffe.” F ind out more and listen to archives from the show.

As I think about the interview, I think about the most often asked question I get these days – about why I claim that affirmations, goal setting and positive thinking do not work?

I often get heat from clients when I say that repeating affirmations is a self-improvement tool that doesn’t work! This is NOT because I believe affirmations and positive thinking can not be powerful tools in manifesting our dreams. It is because I know that unless we acknowledge and release our underlying negative thought or belief that is currently directing our entire system – brain, heart-rate, perceptions, behavioral reactions, blood pressure, breathing, etc… -- we will continue fighting ourselves: “I have all that it takes to be successful” vs. “I’m doomed to fail!”

There are ways, however, to make affirmative statements effective. But just plopping a happy, fluffy, shiny thought over grimy, nasty, negative one does not work. The way to make affirmations effective is to unearth the negative belief that’s fighting it before attempting to rewire yourself with a new truth that you want to start living by.

Here is the way to make those affirmations start working for you!

1) Acknowledge the negative thought

2) Breathe with attention directed toward the feeling. Experience how that thought makes you feel—whether the feeling is physical (tight neck, jittery stomach) or emotional (frustrated, angry, panicy),

3) Cleanse that negative thought and it’s associated feeling from your brain and physiology. Breathe in – acknowledge the thought and its associated feeling. Breathe out – release it from your system.

4) Rewire in a new truth that you want to start living your life by.

Using these 4 steps you are paving the way for your affirmation to take root and start supporting all you want to have, do, or be.

LA Times Tackles Job Stress, ... What's Missing?

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Sun, 16 Aug 2009 17:56:00 +0000

The LA Times tackles “Job Stress.”

In an article, “Sick of it” about how on-the-job stress is detrimental to your health, you’ll learn all the things you should “do,” to lessen the effects of on-the-job stress (e.g., take a quick walk around the office), or the things you should “not do” (e.g., don’t eat junk food), or the things you should “avoid doing” (e.g., consuming caffeine and simple sugars). But what you will not learn in this article is what to do in-the-moment when the frustration, feelings of overwhelm or anxiousness flood your system and seem to take charge of your experience, making you “do” all the things you know you shouldn’t do! What is missing is how to manage these emotions that trigger the unhealthy behaviors that keep us stuck feeling stressed and reacting in ways that do not serve us. Well, here’s a powerful and effective way to instantly get back in charge of your emotions.

The ABC’s of stress management:

Acknowledge the feelings of stress within you whether they are physical or emotional. Maybe it’s tight shoulders or jittery stomach, maybe a feeling of anger or panic, or the inability to concentrate. Simply acknowledge you are feeling stressed!).
Breathe with attention directed to the feeling wherever you feel it – allow yourself to experience it. Stay with the feeling (e.g., stiff neck, jittery stomach or frustration, impatience) and feel it.
Cleanse that feeling from your physiology. Again whether it is a physical or emotional feeling—use the power of your breath to release the feeling. As you inhale slowly, acknowledge the feeling. As you exhale slowly, release the feeling. So inhale – acknowledge; exhale – release.

Using these 3 steps of acknowledging, experiencing and releasing the feelings of stress, we will feel more calm, and when we are calm we will find ourselves thinking more clearly, making better decisions, and maybe getting the job you’ve always wanted!

When we don’t acknowledge and allow ourselves to experience the feelings of stress within, these feelings will continue to trigger unhealthy reactions—eating chips/cookies, drinking more caffeine, multi-tasking our way to anxious distraction, blaming our co-workers, and staying stuck in a life of reacting! Learn to take charge of your emotions by turning toward them and letting yourself feel them (rather than “doing” something to avoid them). We have been conditioned to believe that by facing negative emotions we will intensify them, but that it just wrong! As I always say, “face it or get chased by it!”

Rancho Santa Fe Review and Del Mar Village Voice say, "Snap Out Of It NOW!"

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 00:47:00 +0000

Matt Liebowit, a journalist with the Rancho Santa Fe Review, the Del Mar Village Voice, and the Carmel Valley News, called me last week to interview me about my KPBS-TV Special and my recent return to full-time therapy and coaching private practice in Del Mar and Carmel Valley. Matt's article came out today in all three papers. I've copied a bit of it below and if you're interested, you click on the link at the bottom to read more! I feel so grateful for the exposure to my work now that I am back home building my private practice.

Local psychologist Dr. Adrianne Ahern takes breakthrough ‘Snap out of it NOW!’ approach to national spotlight

By Matt Liebowitz

In matters of psychological health and well-being, often it’s the simple solution that warrants the most focus. Such is the case with the Dr. Adrianne Ahern, whose groundbreaking approach to psychology—simple and deeply scientific at once—is gaining widespread, national attention.

Ahern, a clinical psychologist who lives and practices locally, is the author of two books, Snap Out of it NOW! (2007), and Back in Charge, which came out in June 2009. Both books outline Ahern’s techniques of how to “rewire” the brain, as she puts it, to break out of conditioned habits and thought patterns and use the brain’s intrinsic physiology to achieve personal and professional success.

New Era In Personal Development!

snapoutofitnow.com@gmail.com (Snap Out Of It Now!) — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 15:47:00 +0000

I want to share a bit a feedback that I just received from a San Diego business woman about "Snap Out Of It NOW!" that aired in San Diego on KPBS August 8th:

"I was going through all the channels on Saturday evening and stopped when I saw your show on Channel 11 PBS. I had not heard of you before. I started Facebook about three weeks ago and started Twitter a couple of days ago and I signed up for both with you. I would like to have a private session with you sometime in the future. I sell real estate. In this economic market, do you have room to schedule sessions for all 21,000 San Diego County real estate agents? Ha, Ha. Did you ever think of contacting SDAR--The San Diego Association of Realtors to put on a seminar. Here is my psychological assessment of your program. Assessment of you--I expected you to be intelligent so I will not mention that, but what came through on the television program and was most impressive was your "sincerity." There is a new era coming soon in personal development and you are in the right place at the right time."
