HAVE FUN, MAKE FRIENDS, BE HAPPY

I always marvel at the way people shine when they break through a roadblock in their lives.  It's brilliant and it's also incredibly attracting.  There's a sense of joy and freedom that is almost palpable.

Val is a great example.  When she started in my workshop, she was feeling overwhelmed with financial and health lack issues.  Never enough money, held back by life's circumstances, and her physical body was challenged, to say the least.

As she began applying the tools to release her old beliefs, and saw the immediate responses from the Universe as she began to manifest, she became almost giddy, playful and childlike.  She was having FUN!

I have found this is one of the most desirable states for manifesting in our lives.  Pure, unadulterated joy and bliss!  At this vibration we are able to tap into and connect with the cosmic forces of creation in a way that is incredibly powerful.  The response is automatic and immediate, continuing to delight us and allowing us to soar to even higher levels of consciousness and bliss!

She began to use the tools with confidence and certainty.  Frustrated in trying to reach her chiropractor for an appointment, she used the process and received a call from their office 15 minutes later for an appointment 20 minutes later unheard of in her experience!).  Calling stores all over and unable to find more invitations for her daughter's wedding, she used the process and a store called her as soon as she'd finished to say they'd found some of them in stock!

This happens all the time.  The miracles and the magic start to happen!  One time an acquaintance called me for help.  She had deleted a message on her machine from a woman who wanted to book her for a paid speaking engagement.  She had no idea how to reach the woman, so we used the process to envision the woman calling her and the engagement being successfully booked.  The woman called her later in the day, apologized for not returning her call sooner (she'd never called her!), and even sent her an email to confirm her interest!!!  The engagement was booked, successfully, and all went well.

Sometimes we forget to allow the Universe to take actions in our lives.  If we hold the belief that "it's all up to us" or that we "have to do everything ourselves" we are turning our backs on the most powerful force in our lives.

When my son was younger, I sent him off to school with these wishes:  "Have fun. Make friends.  Be happy."  That was what I truly wished for him to experience.  As I look at those words now I realize they were really quite wonderful!

How many of us are having an inner dialogue that is encouraging us to have an incredibly amazing day?  How many of us are walking out our doors each morning with joyful anticipation of all the fun that lies ahead, almost as if we have the chance to enjoy an entire day at Disneyland?

Trust the Universe and ask for help.  Give yourself the endorsements and encouragement you deserve.  Everything you desire and deserve is already there for you. Just open your arms wide and prepare to receive all that is already yours by Divine right.

And just for tomorrow as you leave your house or prepare to start work, hear my voice or the voice of someone you love saying:  "HAVE FUN.  MAKE FRIENDS. BE HAPPY."

YOU deserve it!!!

With prosperity and blessings,

Maybe you heard this when you were growing up.  I know I heard it often and at the time I thought it was just some kind of Pollyanna nonsense for all the good girls in the world!

As I was talking with a friend last week, this phrase came back to mind.  I realized that as we talk about creating consciously, this old-time saying really has practical significance and benefits.

What we put out into the world comes back to us multiplied.  We know that by demonstration in our own lives and the lives of others. 

What we say is a reflection of our beliefs.  If we are saying something unkind, cruel, judgmental, or negative about someone or to someone, we are actually creating toxic chemicals inside of our body.  More important, what we say about someone else is most often a mirror of what we're criticizing in ourselves.  In addition, we are likely changing the crystal structure of the water in our bodies (see Dr. Emoto's work in the next article) which may have immeasurable effects given the fact that our bodies are almost 75% water!

As we learn how to consciously create the life around us, it's important to remember that we are also consciously or unconsciously creating the world within us, impacting each and every cell of our body with the intentions of our words, thoughts, and actions.  The idea behind the phrase is not about stuffing our emotions, but shifting our beliefs and our perceptions so that they don't harm us or others.

Positive thoughts strengthen us while negative thoughts weaken us – even if they are about someone else!

When you look at yourself in the mirror are you saying "I love you" or "You are absolutely fabulous"?  Or, is the negative critical voice that looks for something wrong to comment on operating the show?  Remember, you are the creator of your internal world (reflected by your health) as well as your external world (reflected by your reality).  It's a good reminder for us all to observe and to adjust, if necessary, the dialogues we are holding in our heads as well as the dialogues we have with others.

For years now, I've used a series of questions as a guideline when I felt I needed to express something.  I'll share it with you in case you find it helpful.

Here are the questions I ask myself:  Is it kind?  Is it loving?  Is it necessary? If I can answer yes to all three questions, then I express myself.  If I can't answer yes to every one, then I don't.  (If any one out there is wondering, by the way, it is not necessary to say something to get something off your chest or make you feel better.  There are other ways to relieve your personal stress and it's a great time to find one.)

Better yet, BE kind, BE loving, and BE necessary as you make a powerful, positive difference in the world around you and within you.  YOU deserve it!

I CREATE MY DAY

Every day we spend time preparing for what lies ahead.  In the morning as you get out of bed, you may have a routine that includes going to the bathroom, brushing your teeth, and showering.  Beyond that, you likely include breakfast, putting on deodorant, shaving and/or makeup, getting dressed, and your own unique rituals.  My regular morning includes 3 hours of meditation, writing, and reading inspirational works. 

While we take the time to take care of our physical bodies, it seems that relatively few of us take the time on a daily basis to care for creating our lives.  I strongly encourage the people I work with to commit five minutes each morning to visualizing the day ahead or their larger life picture.  By taking this time, they are effectively creating their day, setting the intentions clearly for what they choose to experience in their life.

If you haven’t seen "What the Bleep Do We Know!?" yet, I encourage you to see it as soon as you can.  It is a brilliant representation of what I have the great honor and privilege to teach in my work – that we create our lives with every thought, word, and action.  Best yet, this movie incorporates the biology and physics that supports these ideas, showing that we are creatures of habit and how breaking those habits will set us free, clarifying the effect of negative thoughts and beliefs on the cells of our bodies, the importance of consciously creating our lives, and some of the photos of Dr. Masaru Emoto's work on water that I've referenced in the past (for more information, visit www.hado.net).

The panel of scientists was brilliant.  One in particular, Dr. Joe Dispenza, stood out for me as he talked about his own personal ritual for creating his day each morning.  Specifically, after he consciously creates his day in the morning, he requests that the Universe shows him that they were paying attention to his creation by bringing him something in an unexpected way so that he has no doubt where it came from.  I'm paraphrasing in part, but the quote is below and you can read Dr. Dispenza's entire quote at www.whatthebleep.com/create.

I have to say that since I saw this movie a week ago, I've been using this technique and the results have been remarkable!  This is a brilliant step forward from information (knowing what you need to do) to transformation (doing what you know you need to do)!  I recommend it highly to you all and welcome hearing about your own experiences.  Remember, you deserve to live the most wonderful life possible!  All you have to do is consciously CHOOSE.
