In the process, you will experience a sense of calm, clarity and confidence to take meaningful action.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[adrotate banner=&#8221;31&#8243;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[adrotate banner=&#8221;92&#8243;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In her new book, \u201cThriving In Our Times: From Reactions To Action Using Logosynthesis\u00ae\u201d (published by The Healthy Living Plan Inc), and available currently on Amazon, Caswell describes how she learned to appreciate the value of resolving what bothered her before taking action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given a unique opportunity to learn from its founder, Dr. Lammers, she mastered the method by applying it in her everyday life, by training with an international group of coaches, counselors and therapists and by coaching others. She is a certified Practitioner and Instructor in Logosynthesis\u00ae.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs I reflect on my life choices, I can now observe that my patterns of behavior are based on my beliefs, attitudes, and experiences,\u201d said Caswell. \u201cThese patterns have served me well. Work hard. Help others. Stick with it. Yet I can also observe where these patterns have become rigid and overused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen I experience change and uncertainty, it can be difficult to see other ways of doing things. My automatic responses can feel intense and distressing, for myself and for those around me. Logosynthesis allows me to clear my path to move forward with greater ease and clarity.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of Caswell&#8217;s daughters, Adriana, assisted with some of the illustrations in the book, which is 250 pages in length.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"What is Logosynthesis\u00ae? | A guided video to demo the Basic Procedure for healing and development.\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TzxdLx76eA8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>[adrotate group=&#8221;6&#8243;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[adrotate banner=&#8221;34&#8243;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Caswell is the president of The Healthy Living Plan Inc., based out of her Waverley home and &nbsp;holds a Masters of Business Administration. Her family, her successful corporate career in the food industry and her volunteer leadership in the community allows her to appreciate the many benefits of Logosynthesis to support their everyday lives.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She feels the communities of Waverley, Fall River and East Hants have been on this journey with her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMany people in these communities have been instrumental in my learning experiences,\u201d she said. \u201cLike we say in 4-H, it really is Learn To Do By Doing. This community provides a supportive and engaging space for me to be curious \u2013 so thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Caswell said she has connected with an international community of professional coaches, counselors and therapists who appreciate Logosynthesis as their preferred method of supporting their clients for many reasons, including a very compassionate approach to heal trauma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI have learned what is possible when we are curious in a supportive group and I love sharing what we discover together,\u201d said Caswell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[adrotate group=&#8221;7&#8243;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[adrotate banner=&#8221;84&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[adrotate banner=&#8221;93&#8243;] MAIN PHOTO: Cathy Caswell, an author from Waverley, poses with her latest book she released inside the Fall River Dairy Queen on Oct. 17.
