Comments for The Mediation Times http://blog.amandabucklow.co.uk Expanding the use of mediation Thu, 24 Jul 2008 17:28:13 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.3 Comment on Starting a mediation practice by Tammy Lenski http://blog.amandabucklow.co.uk/2008/06/11/starting-a-mediation-practice/#comment-3580 Tammy Lenski Mon, 16 Jun 2008 10:00:26 +0000 http://blog.amandabucklow.co.uk/2008/06/11/starting-a-mediation-practice/#comment-3580 Amanda, thanks for the shout-out about Mediator Tech and for extending the conversation here. I'd have replied sooner but was taking a much-needed bit of vacation time. I really like and want to underscore your comment, "Sometimes the most difficult thing is saying ‘no’ to work that might distract you or muddy your positioning in the market." The longer I do this work, and talk about marketing with other mediators, the clearer and clearer I am that focus and purpose in terms of market segment and niche make a huge difference for success. Best to you, Tammy Amanda, thanks for the shout-out about Mediator Tech and for extending the conversation here. I’d have replied sooner but was taking a much-needed bit of vacation time.

]]> Comment on Being a mediator - some tips from the Buddha by Nancy E. Hudgins http://blog.amandabucklow.co.uk/2008/01/18/being-a-mediator/#comment-622 Nancy E. Hudgins Sun, 20 Apr 2008 21:30:04 +0000 http://blog.amandabucklow.co.uk/2008/01/18/being-a-mediator/#comment-622 Hi, Amanda! I just found your blog through Diane Levin at >. I'm enjoying scrolling through it. I learned a new strategy from Daniel Bowling, a well-respected mediator in the U.S., recently. Daniel suggested using metta meditation before mediations. At the time, I had a divorcing couple as clients and I seemed not to be able to communicate well with the wife. I tried a metta mediatation before the next mediation session we had. I'm pleased to say that we had a much better connection. Best, Nancy Hi, Amanda!

We were coming in from Dusseldorf on Thursday, supposed to continue to Capetown. Suppose what? BA’s wonderful T5 lost my husbands wheelchair (not to talk about all other luggage) - so today, (it’s Friday evening) were back to home in Germany, no holidays in Southafrica, the wheelchair still lost (not to mention the rest of our luggage). Any words of sorry from BA? Nope. I fully agree with your views!
