Astro-Life Coach Launches New Book:
Cosmic Coaching, Unleash Your Star Signs True Potential

Cosmiccoaching.com – August 12 2002. Author and life coach, Lorna Mackinnon has launched a new book, Cosmic Coaching: Unleash Your Star Signs True Potential, Rider, to help people to better understand their strengths, weaknesses and most likely routes to success and choose the career and relationships that best suit them.

Seeking Guidance in the New Millennium

In an age where self-improvement and personal development are of increasing importance, we all seek guidance - be it from family, coaches, mentors, therapists or via our weekly horoscopes. We are increasingly looking toward outside parties to help us achieve success in various aspects of our lives.

Recent research by the Tea Council on horoscope habits indicated that women are highly influenced by their daily horoscopes for guidance in their lives, with 69% planning their next career move according to astrological predictions. Meanwhile, a recent survey of coaching clients conducted by The International Coach Federation, revealed that coaches are primarily used as a soundboard (84.8%) and motivator (78.1%) and that use of life-coaches is growing year on year. Its clearly evident that we are continuously striving for outside help to make us the best we can be and take our life in the direction we want it to follow.

In her new book, Cosmic Coaching: Unleash Your Star Signs True Potential, former management consultant, Lorna Mackinnon, combines two areas of outside guidance prevalent in todays society – life coaching and astrology, or Cosmic Coaching.

What Is Cosmic Coaching?
Cosmic Coaching is a mixture of astrology and life coaching, which helps people to understand how their star sign can affect their personality, their choices and how they deal with events in your life. For example, did you know that the Mercury sign indicates your mental potential? If you have Mercury in Aries you are positive and impulsive and need to develop better concentration. While, Cancerians are so receptive to others that they can lose clarity in a sea of feelings. Sound accurate?

We all want to make the best of our talents and ourselves so that we can achieve maximum success, happiness and fulfilment," says author, Lorna Mackinnon, By using the techniques laid out in this book, you can combine the powerful tools of life coaching and astrology to take charge of your life."

The book looks at the readers sun sign and how they can work with this to maximise their potential and ensure they make the right life choices. The coaching exercises within the book provide an easy solution which readers can take action on immediately.

As an astrologer and coach, I like to think of a clients sun sign as representing the ‘present you, the individual you are now," adds Lorna. The sun sign also represents your role in life and the part of you that you are striving to express. The magic of this book is that it shows you how to coach yourself to realise the part of yourself that you wish to be recognised."

The Book Reveals:
Ø   How to use your positive Sun Sign traits to your advantage and how to enhance them
Ø   Powerful techniques for turning the negative aspects of your Sun Sign into strengths
Ø   How to use perceived weaknesses as gateways to higher potential, rather than wasting energy trying to overcome them.

Each chapter contains advice, case studies, exercises, resources and action plans.

Says Lorna, My main aim in writing this book is to bring to a wider audience the powerful techniques I use when coaching my clients to create the lives they want. Im here to turn the reader into their own Cosmic Coach, enabling them to apply the tools provided to any area of their lives."

Key Benefits of Cosmic Coaching – readers will:
