When helping clients, choose the best service you offer, what do you use as you decision maker? Your head or your heart?

Both. Head provides info from all the training over the years. However, heart or gut - the instinctual some might say - is equally important. Perhaps it a subconscious pattern in my head that guides me to the treatment. It can be how they walked down the hall to the treatment room; limping or stiff or languid or . . . It might be a postural asymmetry or skin tension. My Uncle was a family practice physician. He said sometimes the patient's odor was a clue. If I allow the factors I am not truly cognizant to mix with treatments I know are appropriate for a specific symptom, I believe the patient gets better results.

My client will ultimately make the decision, but it is my job to provide them with the best options that fit their loved ones needs. I am very honest about the places we tour and believe this really sets me apart. Once I evaluate the senior, I will explain why I feel one community would benefit the senior opposed to another. I want what's best for the senior so they can thrive.

When you are an authentic sincere passionate dutiful loving human being who goes the extra-extra mile to see someone's life get better, when trained in the medical field, like me, your heart is READILY more in harmony than the mind. Love, elevating and sustaining one's life seem to originate from the heart, first, than the mind. The mind can have many desires, distractions, anticipations, and delusions, so it's so much better to start where purity is more common & ready, and that is the HEART, the emperor of all organs! Besides, to heal, you must first have purity and love in your heart and everything will follow. When you are an instrument of the greatest physician, God, many times, every intelligent thing you know is in the heart, comes out natural, like breathing, no need to think about. Of course, when complex, the mind is always there to assist.

That's all for now, fellow Earthlings. Make time to love yourself today❤...then you can love others, even better😉

I've worked and trained as scientist and now, energetic work, so I'm always amazed by where this question leads. I've learned to temper heart with head, asking questions and listening to needs of client and the questions and answers spring from that Higher Source that resides within both of us- client and practitioner. Always leads to healing.

Appel to both the head and heart

Interesting, but a somewhat simplistic approach to problem solving in our industry (home care and assistance for the elderly. Would you want your own practitioner, physician, nurse or other health professional to make their decision for you based on what they "feel in their heart"?

There are many factors that must be considered (we used to call it multifactorial). We find that when decisions are made strictly on emotion, that there is a high rate of failure and unhappiness in the long run because not enough time was taken to sit down and understand all sides of the situation.

I work with Family Law and Dependency Cases, through the court. So every case is different. But if I see a need for Parenting or Anger Management etc. while the Family is in supervised visitation. I send a recommendation to the courts and leave it up to the court to decide If they are to add to the services the client needs.

Your heart is where your empathy and listening comes from. Also use your head for next steps and empowerment for them You need both
