Are you on track with your New Year’s reso-
lutions… if not then maybe it is time to try a new
approach! Coaching and Hypnosis as used by
Certified Coach and Hypnotist,
Marianne D.
Hove
in Califon, NJ are great tools for reaching
those illusive goals.
Coaching and Hypnosis are used for creating
positive change in your life. During the coaching
process personal hopes and wishes often change
shape from illusive and complicated to robust,
explicit and measurable, hereby becoming do-able
and attainable within a reasonable time frame.
Through dialogue and questions, client and
coach identify personal strength, opportunities
and various realistic ways of moving ahead.
Together we develop a practical plan based on
personal values, strength and energy level. One
little step at a time to finally reach the goal.
Now where does HYPNOSIS come in you may
ask. Hypnosis is used to support and strengthen
self-esteem, stress reduction, weight manage-
ment, positive outlook and so much more. Hyp-
nosis is a proven tool for helping people over-
come life’s challenges and take control of self-
defeating patterns of behavior.
Hypnosis is a gentle yet powerful way to influ-
ence behavior and generally effect positive change
in your mind and body in many different ways.
Hypnosis and Coaching together offer effec-
tive support for any kind of self-improvement
and is a positive and creative approach to pro-
vide you with new skills to alter old habits.

CATS ARE SPECIAL FURRY ONES TOO!

CRAZY FOR CATNIP
This fragrant herb is from the mint fam-
ily. The plant’s buds contain an essential
oil called nepetalactone that evokes
such feline antics as chin and cheek rub-
bing, rolling and kicking, and even leap-
ing into the air. I would buy organic –
it’s the most potent.
EMBRACE THE POWER OF PETTING
Scientists report that people who pet
their cats experience an increase in
theta waves, a brain wave pattern that
shows a reduction in feelings of anxiety.
Petting your furry friend for just a few
minutes releases a healthy amount of
positive biochemicals, those “feel-
good” hormones. Research shows that
these good feelings work both ways.
Meaning you and your furry friend both
enjoy and benefit from petting.
A CAT’S TAIL
When the tail is held upright while the
cat is walking, it signals confidence. A
tail that flicks toward you means: “Hello
my friend.” Whipping the tail from side
to side or thumping it on the floor
means agitation. A lightly twitching tail
conveys relaxed alertness. A puffed-up
tail indicates total fright.
HEAD TO TAIL EXAM
Devote a hands-on petting session
weekly to exam your cat’s entire body,
looking for lumps, bumps, sore spots,
or changes in fur and skin. Do not for-
get to check eyes, ears, and mouth.
Your observations may help to catch a
medical problem in its early stages. And
your furry one will love the attention.
TREAT YOUR CAT AS
MR OR MRS WONDERFUL
Your cat needs to be pampered. One
easy way is to warm a small blanket in
the clothes dryer for 5 to 10 minutes,
then drape it on your furry one during
chilly nights to help him or her sleep.
You can also do this for cats that have
arthritic issues too. It will help to
increase blood flow and ease muscle
aches. Remember not too hot.
LITTER BOX SUCCESS
Clean out deposits every day and wash
the litter box once a month with warm
soapy water, letting it dry completely
before putting in fresh litter. Do not use
any strong chemicals to wash out litter
boxes. Fill in depth of three inches.
Never place food or water bowls near
litter boxes. Cats do not like to eat near
bathroom areas.
WARM & COZY
Position your cat’s bed near a source of
warmth – near a sunny window, a fire-
place or next to a heat vent. Grab your
comforter and a good book & spend
some time with your snoozing friend
while you pamper yourself and enjoy
some quiet time as well. It’s good for
the soul!
SAME FOOD EVERY DAY
Add a splash of tuna juice or salt free
chicken broth to the bowl of dry food.
After dinner your furry friend may
spend more time grooming because of
the lingering delightful aromas from
those GREAT toppings.
HEALTHY TREAT
A tablespoon of plain low-fat yogurt
once a day provides calcium, a dose of
good bacteria, and some extra liquid
(
yogurt is mostly water).
Enjoy your furry friends, they are special.
And remember any questions, always
check with your regular veterinarian.
