Muriel,
First, have you been in contact w/ someone who is your personal coach at LS?
Next, why not start at the beginning and post here as you go along? Maybe we can help.
I experienced success even before i learned to PhR because i practiced each step and was amazed at the whole system approach.
So, why not just do PREPARE. Read up on Prepare and do it a number of times. And, then use these questions as your guide posts:
1. What am i doing differently from the book/course?
2. Do i really have my Quiet Scene down?
3. Do i use any of the Prepare techniques for other areas in my life?
4. What value on a scale of 1--10 do i place these prepare techniques i've learned?
You know, the Prepare Step changed my life
I started practicing Prepare techniques and saw a change for the better and felt like the course was worth the $$$ just for that one step.
good luck
