At New Leaf Touchstone, our mission is to help people fulfill their intentions in spite of their circumstances and to make change stick.  We achieve this by providing our clients the structure, support and tools  necessary  for them to make any change they wish to make in their lives with greater ease. 

 Because we believe being one’s best self is not only good for the individual, but has a positive impact on everyone he or she touches, we believe that by helping individuals one at a time, or in groups, we are making a difference in society as a whole.

Everything we do is done with the intention to put the power to change into the hands of everyone who is touched by the products and services and, in turn, everyone who they touch.

Our unique New Leaf Touchstone bracelets and pocketstones are tools designed to serve as visual and tactile reminders to the people who use them to consciously choose new, more effective actions in place of their current, habitual behaviors.  They are hand made with love by a group of at-risk adolescent girls who are students at a therapeutic residential school.  The girls love to make the products because, not only are they beautiful, but they know that in producing them, they are contributing to another’s success.  These products  are so simple, elegant and effective and the girls who make them are so special, I’d love the opportunity to share my story.

Possible Story Angles for New Leaf Touchstone and Cindy Loughran:

  1. Can habits be broken?
    New research indicates that, yes, you can teach an old dog new tricks! Cindy shares insights on the latest coaching based tools she’s developed to help anyone be a master of change in their own lives.
  2. Break out of the auto-pilot rut and into a purposeful, powerful new groove
    We live much of our lives doing things automatically, without giving it any thought. We can’t change what we aren’t aware we are doing. And we won’t let go of what’s familiar and comfortable if we don’t have a new trapeze to grab onto. Cindy offers tools and techniques that allow us to increase our consciousness, choose more effective behaviors and make them our new habits.
  3. Self-Improvement is a $9.6 billion industry in the U. S. People want to change!
    So why aren’t all those books and infomercials working? Cindy offers new tools and techniques to help you translate all their great advice into action!
  4. Emotional intelligence helps you make more conscious choices and helps improve your relationships
    Increasing self-awareness, improving self-control, demonstrating empathy are all critical aspects of Emotional Intelligence. When we are triggered by emotions, we often behave in ways that break down relationships and interfere with our ability to get things done. People can learn new responses that, when integrated, can increase their capacity to influence, gain support, produce results through others and increase overall effectiveness.
