Embracing Change

My life takes me so many interesting places. I was just thinking about how many trips I took over the last year. It occurred to me that even beyond the physical trips, I took journeys to the inner sanctuaries and tributaries of my soul, and to the peaks and valleys of my life, and to new ideas and creations, and new friendships and collaborations. At times I traveled to my future, my destiny and my divinity. At other times to my past, my history, my creation.

And what I found is that the future is boundless and there really is no going back. The past we go back to is never the same as the one that we experienced as we were shaped, created, grown. Nothing stays the same. People change. Places change. Even the memories we had ... change.

It has been said that the only constant in life is change. So why then do so many resist change? (Yes, I'm including myself.)

Perhaps it is a form of control. Perhaps it is wishful thinking. Perhaps it is just a misunderstanding. But no matter what it is, there is a definite resistance that exists within a lot of us regarding change of one sort or another.

I believe that when people can really look at themselves, their own ever-changing selves, and embrace the fact that they can change and are not bound forever to the Who they once were, well, I believe they will find relief in this thought ... and a type of freedom. I believe there is a hidden key within the enigma of change that if found could send individuals, and the world, into transformations of astronomical proportions. I don't mean to scare anyone ... I'm seeing this as a really good thing!

I believe that these types of amazing transformations have to begin within each one of us and that then they will ooze out, slowly or quickly, to the world at large. I believe that in order to make these shifts within that all we have to do is recognize that we have been changing in little, tiny increments all along, due to things beyond our control, and that it is all good. And if we can see all the change that has taken place within us and be grateful for it, I think we will be able to find our way to trust the changes happening in the world at large are also innately good, despite appearances, and learn to love and welcome them, too.

And then I believe we will be just a few small steps away from a global peace that has not been seen on this planet in a very long time.

Well, these are just some things that I believe, but I'll bet you would agree that these are really good thoughts to think!

Putting my two cents out into the global consciousness,

I am a Human Being, Not a Human Doing

"I have thoughts and desires and a miraculous spirit.

I have all the tools to create life and live it!"

*

Have you ever noticed that BEING is an action verb? That's not exactly what we are taught in school, but if you pause and think about it for a while, you'll come to see this is true. Humanity is the living expression of the will of the universe! We are thought in motion. We are the actors playing the most remarkable roles in the grandest play of all!

Consider what being is. Within this Now Moment lies the potential for ... anything ... everything! This Now Moment you are still and contemplating, but even that is energy building (which is movement). And the moment you move to the next Now Moment, you are moving, and that moving is being, and doing. It is a choice to live, to breathe, to think, to contemplate, to ponder, to plan, to get excited about what you are planning, to anticipate. Can you see that all of these things are both being and doing?

Embody the knowing that you are being today and that being is doing. Feel how empowering this simple thought is. It puts into your hands the power to create, limitlessly!

Now it is your turn to shine the light on this knowing and to amp up the power of your life creating process. Get deliberate about your doingness by getting conscious about your beingness.

You can DO it! I mean BE it! Well, you know what I mean.

To your JOY,

Mystical Universe (intention/affirmation)

"I can't know everything that will be for me and I'm find living within this mystery."

Life is full of mystery. Today I contemplate how Unseen Loving Forces mold and shift the very fabric of life to ensure that all people get all they desire ... including me! There are millions of ways my dreams can come to me and today I will practice being okay with not knowing which one will make it to my reality. I will enjoy this moment.

The Ripple Effect

"Just as waves cannot be frozen on the sea,

So too for all things I send forth out from me."

*

As you connect with each person who crosses your path today, make it a point to make a mental note that your contribution to the interaction made a ripple out into the universe, a vibrational intention that is now set in motion. This simple acknowledgement is part of waking ourselves up. As we look back over the interactions of the day holding this awareness, we can see how our ripples might impact the Web of Life. Are you pleased with what you have sent forth? Are you pleased with what you have set in motion? This simple exercise allows you to gain clarity and to become more conscious of the vibrations you are sending forth to the universe, which in turn tells you what the universe will be flowing back to you in the form of your life manifestations and experiences. We are all in the process of awakening and this little tool can assist in gaining clarity so that we can create better interactions, better manifestations and better outcomes.

Message from The Guardians of Humanity

This is just a quick note to let you know that I channeled a short (4-minute) message from The Guardians of Humanity. They wish you to know this information and to be soothed by it. They wish this for all of humanity. This message was captured via automatic writing, then read, in the moment, from the sacred space created, in order to give you the full essence of their message. If you feel led, please listen to the audio file I created to get the message out. I am providing here, the beginning ...

“This message is written in a most unique manner, to speak to all of humanity, but to touch YOU and speak to YOU personally, for in truth, it IS for you.

Please know that the guardians of humanity are with you. You are personally guided and protected, and at the same time all are guided and protected. Please hear us when we say this for it is important that you understand that BOTH of these statements are for your personal comfort and empowerment. We know that you have not quite grasped this, so please allow us to explain...”

To hear the full message, type in ‘guardians’ on the home page and the file will be in the first page of results. As they say, “be at peace.”

What's Your Story?

Do you know what your personal story is? Most people think they do, but they do not. There are all kinds of layers and facets to your personal energetics, your personal Morphic Field, that radiate your current “truth” out to the universe and create the echo back that becomes your perceived reality, or your life experience. Getting to the bottom of your story can take some dedication, so this post is dedicated to assisting you in this valiant undertaking. Please don’t be daunted or deterred, for this is noble and valuable work that will benefit you for the rest of your life.

Let’s get started. First of all, take a look at your life and realize that it contains aspects that you do not particularly like. Remember that, according to the universal Law of Attraction, everything showing up in your life is always a perfect match to that which you are vibrating out to the universe. It has to be. That is law. Therefore, if there are things in your life that you do not like, or do not want, then it falls to you to undertake the tweaking of your Morphic Field so that you can begin to see the life of your dreams. Awareness of this state of affairs, and your responsibility in the manifestations that exist in your life, is the first step to changing it.

Next, set the intention that you want to become more conscious of the story you are projecting to the world. Setting the intention opens the doorway for awakened realizations. You might also want to find a partner, a buddy, who is willing to collaborate with you in this work. Perhaps they desire to clean up their own life story, or perhaps they are just willing to support you in the work you are doing to clean up yours, but no matter, you need someone who will hold you accountable to your goal. This person will be responsible for echoing back to you any messages they hear or perceive that you are projecting to the world.

Let’s take a quick For Instance. For instance, you are in the car with your accountability buddy when you get irritated at a nearby driver. Your accountability buddy would then let you know that you are radiating to the universe a focus on undesirable traffic experiences. This would allow you to the turn your focus to finding wonderful things about driving to focus upon (ie, how great the invention of the car is for getting you from point A to point B, how comfortable cars have gotten over the years, how superb the newest steering mechanisms are that allow you to react quickly should another driver temporarily lose his focus, etc.).

To continue the momentum you have begun, start to piece together the story you have been telling to the universe. Write it down. Document it. Honor it for what it is, an out-picturing of your past perceptions congealed to form the tangible story of your present. But let this just be knowledge for you. Don’t dwell on it. Look at the different things you want to tweak and find alternative focuses for each, getting help from you accountability buddy if you need it as you retrain yourself and where you are placing your focus.

Remember, if there is a lot you wish to tweak, don’t try to tackle it all at once. Rather, pick something you know you can succeed in changing. This will continue the momentum you’ve begun and allow you to begin to FEEL success, and higher vibrations flowing into your life experience.

Catch the wave of these good feelings and allow the momentum to carry you to the next issue, and the next, always acknowledging your successes. If you start to focus on some perceived “failure,” remind yourself (or your buddy should be reminding you) that it took years to get to where you were and now to get to your new ideal, your new story, may take a little time and effort. Get back to honoring yourself for your brave choice to clean up your story and to walk consciously toward the life of your dreams.

There is great significance in the impact your personal story plays on what you are manifesting and are able to manifest into your reality.

I know a story of a woman who decided to tell a different story about her health. She didn’t put her family’s medical history down on the medical charts, and when asked about her parents’ health she simply lied and told her doctor that her family had an amazing history of perfect health. She felt this benefited her as her doctor saw her as having a positive health outlook and did not look upon her with eyes of concern, or negative expectation.

I know the story of a man who lived the truth of his agelessness so completely that he truly forgot his age and felt this enhanced the ability of those around him to see his agelessness and youthfulness, even though he was well past the age of maturity.

What is the story of your life that you’ve been telling (yourself and others) to this point? Is it the story you WANT for your life? What would you take out of your story? What would you put into it? Why not start telling a better story NOW? Why not begin today to only tell a story that is fully in alignment with who, what and where you wish to be?!

Ask yourself these powerful questions and take the journey that will allow you to rewrite the story of your life! You will find that your life is a dream (like the song ... “Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Life is but a dream”) and you will never again allow your story to run amuck, for you now have the tools to keep it in alignment with your heart’s desires.

How to Create a Vision Board

A vision board (also called a Treasure Map, Dream Board or Creativity Collage) is typically a poster board on which you paste images into a collage. It’s simple.

The idea behind this is that when you surround yourself with images of who you want to become, what you want to have or do, where you want to live, or where you want to vacation, your life changes to match these images and desires.

No matter which method you’re choosing, have a little ritual before you begin your vision board. Sit quietly and set your intentions. Maybe just ask yourself "What do I want?" and then take note of anything that comes to mind.

Go through magazines and tear out images that make your heart sing.

Go through the images and put your favorites on the board. Choose the images that make you feel REALLY good. Let your emotions soar as you place the pictures, as if you are putting personal photos of you doing these things into a personal photo album.

Glue everything onto the board. Add words and phrases if you want.

An option, once you are done putting your vision board together is to have it laminated. This will greatly extend the life of your vision board and allows you to stick post-it-notes or taped notes on your board.

Choose Happiness!

Some years ago a boss of mine told me that he heard a speaker once (Anthony Robbins, I believe) talk about choosing every morning before you put your feet on the floor to choose to be happy and to feel the wonder of life in the day you are entering ... or, to decide to have a rotten day. He told me he started to literally do that, and what he found when he faced himself with that choice each morning was that he never wanted to choose to be miserable. So he always chose happiness ... and ... once he started to CHOOSE HAPPINESS, he never had a "bad day" again!

So, I adopted the habit too ... to CHOOSE HAPPINESS first thing each morning. And you know what? I have found that, even on a "difficult day," I AM HAPPY! There is a river of joy within each of us. All we have to do is decide not to block the flow.

Taking this a step further, as you encounter each experience within your day ... arriving at work to a desk full of papers, a grumpy person in a meeting, slow traffic on the way home, irritable children or husband when you arrive home ... you get to choose how you will move through each experience. You can be at peace as you experience the slow traffic (and find things to keep your emotions high, like singing your lungs out with the tunes on the radio), or you can choose to be miserable as you experience the slow traffic.

See?

Happiness is not a condition; it is a choice.

I hope you can feel the joy flowing through you. For me, this is real. This is a way of life. This is what I have come to know is our natural state of being. May it be infectious! May your own river of JOY be absolutely bursting from its banks!

To your JOY,

This Stuff Really Works!

I want you to find your own way to KNOWING that you are a powerful manifestor of your dreams and that you hold all your own answers within you, but until you really get it I'll be using this space to provide you with tools and stories to assist you towards that Knowing.

Today I want to share with you a Law of Attraction tool called Scripting. Scripting is writing out a story that represents something you want to happen in your life. You write it in narrator format, as if you are telling the story to someone you know as if it has already happened. Let me tell you what happens in your Morphic Field while you are writing this story. Once you get going, you will probably float way up the emotional scale on the topic you are writing about. You will feel excited, happy, loved, adored, and supported by the universe! The universe will sense your positive emotions, and in particular, it will sense that you are feeling this way ABOUT THIS TOPIC. Basically, it will then say, oh, this soul loves feeling this way about this topic, so let's give it more opportunities to experience this! And BAM, manifestations that match your desire will begin showing up all around you.

I'll give you an example of how this works. Once I was concerned about one of my sons. He was just launching out into the world on his own and something had come up in his experience that caused me some concern for him. Since we cannot create in another's experience, I focused on what I wanted. I wanted to experience a son who was independent, loved staying in contact with me, understood his connection to the world and his purpose in the world, and was happy, healthy and wise. So I wrote a Script. In the Script I focused on my perfect day, from the time I awoke until I tucked myself in at night. I didn't give my son a lot of focus in the Script, but at one point wrote in that I was driving to something fun and on my way there my cell phone rings. It is my son and as soon as I say Hello he is practically shouting in my ear, "This stuff works!" I asked him, "What stuff," and he told me, "This Law of Attraction stuff!" And then he proceeded to tell me how he had intended something and it had manifested. As I wrote, I could feel joy well within me that my son was calling me to share this special aha in his life, and pride was there too, as I realized he was gaining wisdom that would serve him well in life.

I put the Script away and went about my life. The very next morning I was driving somewhere and my cell phone rang. It was this very son and before I could even finish saying Hello he was shouting, "This stuff really works, Mom!" I asked, "What stuff?", knowing full well what I would hear him say. Sure enough, he had just had an experience of intending something, deliberately using the Law of Attraction, and it had manifested for him! I was so excited for him. I was so excited that my Script had worked so quickly and brought me my intention!

This is the power of the Law of Attraction. It can happen quickly, or slowly. It can happen exactly as you dreamt it up ... or, better yet, the universe is really good at thinking up ways that will surprise and delight you and that are even better than anything you would have thought up on your own.

So, if you are focused on Scripting, don't get too caught up in the details of how it happens in the Script. Just get into it emotionally and let if flow! The universe will bring to you those parts it feels you are a vibrational match to, so your emotions, your morphic field's vibrational frequency, is what will make it happen. The more you let go and let the feelings flow, the more the universe will be able to flow things into your experience.

So give Scripting a try. I'll be posting about other wonderful Law of Attraction tools in the days and weeks ahead, but this should be enough to get you started.

The JOurneY Begins

One thing that I discover over and over as I coach people through life issues is that at the bottom of a great deal of their challenges is a lack of faith in something.

You see, there is a huge, yet subtle, difference between "believing" and "knowing" that something is true. We can even convince ourselves that our beliefs are knowings, even when this is not so. You see, our minds can believe something, while our hearts do not. There has actually been a considerable amount of research done on this that indicates the existence of what has come to be known as the heart-brain (see www.heartmath.org). This research actually indicates that the heart-brain is "stronger" than the brain we have all been told controls our choices, beliefs and actions.

Learning to differentiate between beliefs and knowings, and between what our head and our heart are telling us are some of the basic logistics we humans need in order to live deliberate, conscious lives. A further look into the heart-brain suggests that it even knows things that our logical brain does not recognize. That these things the heart-brain picks up on are connected to our souls and to the whole web of life. Research also indicates that our hearts can and do veto decisions of the logical brain and may even be the true driving force of our lives. It would seem then a good idea to get more in touch with our heart-brain so that we make optimal life choices. Coaching is one of many tools that can help with this process. But before you can begin to seek coaching, you must gain clarity about what is really happening behind the veil of your soul. This is where Sacred Sight is so priceless.

If you have an issue that is confounding you, something that leaves you feeling stuck, call me. When we connect, Higher Self to Higher Self, you will find that answers locked away can no longer hide and the waves of Clarity will wash through your life and start the Rivers of Freedom and Joy flowing once more. Start your JOurneY towards JOY now! You are worth it, so why wait another minute to start?
