Law of Attraction & Storm-Cloud Thoughts

Abundance consciousness is not the easy way, at least not at first. It requires commitment, focus and persistence. To practice, we re-train our minds to focus on what we desire, even as we acknowledge the reality of what-is. Eventually we reveal more ease, flow and grace in our loves. It’s the beauty way. ~ Socha

For years I have studied and practiced the law of attraction, first coming upon the concepts reading Florence Scover Shinn’s book, The Game of Life & How to Play it (published 1925) and later enjoying everything by Abraham Hicks. Even after years of practice, I still find that I need refreshers now and then. The point of my study in the law of attraction is to invite a life of ease, grace and flow by focusing my thoughts on what I desire to create rather than on what isn’t serving me in each moment. In other words, it’s based on the premise that thoughts become things, or that our external world is influenced by the quality of thoughts we hold in our internal world.

If only it were so easy! Our conscious minds, and the thoughts of which we are aware, constitute only about 5% of our brains’ operations. Another 95% of what we’re creating with our minds and thoughts is subconscious or unknown to us at any given time. As valuable as it is to have many programs open and operating in the background of our experience, these thoughts too create our reality for better or worse. Continue reading

The Heart’s Intuitive Intelligence

I have always been a huge fan of intellect and academia, so much so that I stayed in college for over a decade and worked at the University of Nevada for over twenty years. I’ve learned, however, that the mind’s influence alone can be so over-rated in creating a quality life. Expanding our heart consciousness and intuitive knowing changes everything in our experience for the better. You make a difference. You matter in the global scheme. What you do to heal yourself, to come into a space of love and appreciation, contributes to the healing of us all. We are one.

I hope you enjoy this video from the Institute of HeartMath, which offers, “an overview of the amazing and vital role of the heart in our lives, and how our personal energetics shapes our social relationships and ultimately affects global consciousness.” What I’ve found is that Reiki and conscious evolution coaching profoundly contribute to our expanded consciousness, healing, and creating quality lives.

The Dream

The Dream Photo 5.7.13

Some enchanted evening you’re going to meet your soulmate, the perfect person who will meet all your needs and fulfill all your dreams. Right? Wrong! Nobody, whether it’s your current mate or some dreamed-of partner in the future, has any obligation to deliver your happiness on a platter – nor could they even if they wanted to. Real love comes not from trying to solve our neediness by depending on another, but by developing our own inner richness and maturity. Then we have so much love to give that we naturally draw lovers towards us. ~ Osho

Drawing the Osho card, “The Dream,” a few days ago from the Osho Zen Tarot, I had the following thoughts. I wondered if I might share, if they might also resonate with you. I welcome your thoughts in the comments section of the blog post.

We all have some dreams that we  dream into being. Dreams may involve ways of meeting basic needs, expressing love, co-creating some wild offering to the world, or visioning a very new and different world. For some the dreaming is conscious, while for others the dream is hidden in the shadows of awareness. For some it’s a beautiful construct of all the magic that may be, while for others it’s a cruel reflection of perceived “reality” based on personal past stories. Continue reading

Hatun Yan, The Great Path

Photo by Dana Nollsch, www.PhotoZen.us

In October of 2011, I began a deeper journey into the medicine wheel, filling a deep longing I’ve had nearly all of my life. The medicine wheel teachings from the Four Winds Society  and Jeffre TallTrees Ph.D. of Sacred Rainbow Mesa, offer “an exploration into the nature of time, energy, and the essential self. The shaman believes that only by stepping outside of time can we experience the mystery of creation and the beauty of our lives.” Many of our shamanic traditions come from the Q’ero of Peru. Upon the night of our “graduation,” Sunday, April 28, 2013, Jeffre shared the passage below with our ayllu (family), from Joan Parisi Wilcox, as told to her from Don Agustin (Pago, shaman). This passage describes the Hatun Yan, the heart of the Andean paqo and the great, happy path that we are on.

I hope that you, as you read, feel the winds of beauty carry you higher and higher, so that you see your world with more clarity from the heights above the clouds, bringing more joy and love in ever-expanding abundance. I feel so much gratitude to walk the hatun yan, enjoying the cosmos, while also being responsible for them, with countless others who walk the path from the old world and from the new… Continue reading

Conscious Evolution Tip: Control & Surrender

Photo by Dana Nollsch www.PhotoZen.us

Socha reminds us:

The infant knows that she is one with the mother. Soon she learns that the mother may be gone, that she can be alone, and that she can feel isolated. When we believe, as we’ve been taught, that we are separate from others, we may indulge our impulses to exert control or influence over them. We may desire to create what we believe will be a better experience for ourselves, for them, or for both. However, once we embrace the unfathomable mystery of the Universe that informs our Unity, we are able to surrender to whatever may be, to find and to cherish the gifts in whatever may be showing up in our lives. We are more apt to revel in our own sense of freedom while supporting others in finding their authentic journeys, all without attachments. Continue reading

What Lies Beyond the Shadow of Fear?

When there is great disappointment, we don’t know if that’s the end of the story. It may be the beginning of a great adventure.  ~ Pema Chödrön

In these times of transition and transformation, fear seems a natural byproduct of the day. It’s nearly impossible, most days, to see around the bend to what may be. Uncertainty of the future, sensing loss of love or security can be huge triggers. What to do with fears? Denial doesn’t work. Sticking my tongue out at fear won’t either. I’ve tried. Journaling helps. Talking to friends can help (if they don’t collaborate with me). Coaching helps. Reiki calms. Yet, fears have a way of coming back into my life, even if they slink off for a bit from time to time. My ego seems to be attached to them. They keep me small, after all.

What’s the message in your fear?

In what ways does fear hold you small?

In choosing who to be, I rise above the fears and daringly gaze into the sunbeams of faith and hope. That’s where I find a new world emerging, one where… Continue reading

Well it seems that the theme of relationships that I covered in my last blog post, Relating & New World Paradigm, really benefited some of you. I came across the blog post below this week, and thought I would share this with you as well. Many writers and theorists talk about how we are transitioning from a 3D world to either a 4D or 5D world. Whether called 4D or 5D, I’ve really resonated with much that’s come out about the way that relationships are evolving from one dimension to the next. I hope you find this article, “Fourth-Density Relationships,” by Robert JR Graham helpful as well. I always welcome sharing from you about how your relationships are evolving in times like these.

Fourth-Density Relationships

Germane: Greetings to everyone. This is Germane. We’d like to thank you all for coming this night. The title of session is “Fourth-Density Relationships.” We would like to encourage you to feel free to ask any questions that are on your mind on the topic.

We are going to start out by talking about the transformation from third to fourth density. As you’ve heard us say many times, one of the characteristics of third density is separation, whether it be separation from God source, from each other, or separating aspects of yourselves within yourselves.

This idea of separation has been necessary in third density to keep you in the third density experience. We are not saying in any way, shape or form, that the separation that you have been a part of on your world for the last several thousand years is in any way wrong, bad, negative. It is part of the experience that you have all chosen.

As you are moving from the 3D into the 4D reality, one of the main qualities of fourth density reality is integration, or reintegration. Therefore, the laws or premises that you have in 3D reality (based on separation) can no longer operate successfully in 4D. If you attempt to carry the premises and beliefs of separation into a 4D reality and refuse to let them go, you can literally tear yourself apart emotionally. Continue reading

Relating & New World Paradigm

In these tumultuous winds of change, it’s easy to lose sight of the bigger picture. We are all doing deep soul work. Honoring all journeys, without judgment or blame, and in complete recognition that all is well, will bring peace, joy and expansion in the aftermath of this amazing storm. ~ Socha

Intense, tense, drama, change, danger, anger… How did you fair the full moon energies of last week? From the nature of conversations with friends, clients, students, and more, there’s been a whole lot happening with energies in general and with relationships in particular. As many of you know, I too have gone through many changes of late in my relationships. All is well, and as a beloved friend says, “We may not always experience easy things, but we can embrace it all with ease.” I need uplifting reminders and guidance from time to time, sailing the sometimes rough seas of emotional changes, so I thought I would share the following information.

And now for Tania’s post:

Truth allows you to live with integrity. Everything you do and say shows the world who you really are. Let it be the Truth. ~ Oprah Winfrey

The Truth needs no rehearsal. ~ Barbara Kingsolver

It can be easy at times to think of ourselves as two entirely different individuals – our old and our new self. This becomes easier to do, the more we journey along our spiritual path. This “new” self feels to us to be much more enlightened, and in many cases it is, however, sometimes even the spiritually evolved version of ourselves can still be wearing a mask that it hides behind – a spiritual disguise.

The Prophetess & High Priest

One day a couple of years ago, while meditating I met a former version of my spirit, whom I call the “Prophetess.” I became aware of the Prophetess during conversations with my Reiki Master Teacher, Laura Bruno, who reads past lives.  In that former life of old-testament era, as Prophetess, I was greatly exploited by my father to feed our family. I was very outspoken, and what I shared was very much against the grain of established society and the teachings of the Hebrew High Priest that resided in our village. The High Priest, in this incarnation by the way, is one of my dearest beloveds. He was ordered to execute me as heretic or witch, which he did, but not before he fell in love with me and not before he realized that what I prophesied held more truth than what he lived and taught his entire life.
