Finances ~ Releasing Old World Disorder

I feel compelled to share this quote that Laura Bruno offered on Facebook:

You do not need to be affected by the economy or man-made conditions. You can create your own personal economic environment of prosperity. If you are willing to listen to and take action on your inner guidance, you will do well no matter what the economy around you is doing. You are being sent all the guidance you need to have abundance and be well provided for during economic downturns. If people lose their jobs or a lot of money, it will only be because those things are not for their higher good; such events will change their lives in some way for the better. If anything is truly serving your higher good, it won’t be taken away. ~ Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer Continue reading

Ah, how delight-filled and wondrous the journeys, even if some days feel more like slippery-slope! Continue reading

Hopey Changey

For days I heard Sarah Palin’s voice in my head. “How’s that hopey changey thing workin’ for ya?” I feel taunted, but not daunted. Some may long for simpler, nostalgic times of bygone days, but to me it seems even more daunting to go backward, even if that were possible, than to move forward. I believe that everything is in perfect order, AND we’re perfectly ripe for change, for positive transformation.

Positive transformation originates within each of us as we awaken, evolve, and generate both energetic and practical solutions to our challenges. In the process of change, we may find ourselves releasing our hold on dogma and personal stories that have caused division between ourselves and others, along with much suffering from within. Without judgment, first we just notice the stories we carry and that we may allow to define us. We may then re-create our stories with a more positive focus to empower us as conscious creators of our own experience. Continue reading

Conscious Choice in Responding to our World

I’ve found in my journey that there are multiple ways that we can react and respond to events in our lives. In general, to react tends to be less conscious. We may blow up with anger, yell or become violent in some way, and generally create even more harm. Conversely, if something feels very painful, overwhelming, or threatening, we may go into denial or ignore the situation, losing an opportunity to effect positive change for ourselves and others. To respond is to take a more conscious approach. We may choose to respond in a practical way, such as through any action: volunteering, donating, advocacy, lobbying, etc. We may also choose to respond in an energetic way, such as through prayer, Reiki, imagination, visualization, etc. Reaction happens as part of the human condition, as do responses intended to harm, unfortunately. However, this article will focus on practical and energetic ways of consciously responding to effect positive change, and I will offer some resources to you that may boost your effectiveness at creating change energetically.

Being of Service

Several weeks ago, a homeless man, Ben, and his dog, Roscoe (not their real names), came to Everlasting Health & Professional Center, where I have a Reno office. Hans, the store owner, pulled me aside as I intended to leave to attend an appointment at the Women & Children’s Center, where I offer pro bono coaching and Reiki to help women and their families transcend poverty.

Hans asked, “Can you care for a dog for a couple of days? His owner is homeless and sick, and he might have to go into the hospital for a couple of days.”

I could barely walk through the door because I know how I respond to homeless people, especially when they have animal companions. Continue reading

Coaching Myths & Misperceptions

My life coach, Marti Benjamin, once told me that describing life coaching is like trying to explain the flavor of chocolate ice cream. The only way to know what life coaching is like is to actually try it! Not only that, but your experience will change from life coach to life coach, as we have quite a variety of methods, strategies, tools, and areas of focus. We all bring our unique gifts to the coaching dance. I often hear myths and misconceptions about coaching. Here I will explore some of these, taking a contrary approach to describing coaching through the process of showing what it is not. Continue reading

A Love Letter

There’s so much to share, that I barely know where to begin. This article may seem like it’s all about me, but if you follow through, you’ll find that it’s actually a love letter to you.

If you are not included on my local email list, you may imagine since my last newsletter in December that I’ve dropped off the earth, that I’ve been slacking off, or that I’ve been up to no good… if you’ve thought of me at all. Continue reading

The Power of Gratitude and Love in a Life Fully Lived

Dr. Masaru Emoto, author of The Hidden Messages in Water, demonstrated with his research that water molecules are affected by thoughts, words, and feelings. This is particularly relevant since humans and our earth are composed mostly of water. When Dr. Emoto froze water crystals while exposing them to negative words, like “fool,” heavy metal music, or if the water was contaminated, then the water droplets would become deformed, ugly crystals, or they would refuse to form crystals at all. When he exposed the water droplets to positive words, like “thank you,” classical music, or photographs of natural environments, then beautiful crystals would form. He found that two words together, “gratitude” and “love,” formed the most beautiful crystals of all. From his research, and from the teachings of many others, we know, “what we imagine in our minds becomes our world” (p. xxii). The more we focus our thoughts on gratitude and love, the more we will create lives that reflect the essence of these energetic vibrations.

On our Conscious Evolution journeys, we often create rituals and ceremonies to mark conscious moments in our lives. Continue reading

Conscious Evolution: How to Thrive in our Transforming World

Let us grow, expand, and free ourselves from the cage of illusion! We already know our way…

It is not necessary to change. Survival is not mandatory. ~ W. Edwards Deming

“Civilization as we know it is coming to an end right now… We must make this evolutionary leap or become extinct.” This is how Bruce H. Lipton, Ph.D. opened his presentation, “The Biology of Belief: Mind over Genes,” on August 4, 2010 in Grass Valley, California.* During his presentation, Dr. Lipton offered a very thorough history of science to demonstrate where we’ve been and where we’re going in our evolutionary path as humans. He shared that for the first time in the history of our planet, we face the possibility of extinction. In contrast to the five former extinctions from forces outside of our control, like meteors, this sixth one is self-created, based on human behavior.

At these crossroads, we have a choice: extinction or evolution. Should we choose to evolve, what wisdom and resources are available to us to help create our evolutionary journey? A few ideas emerge from Dr. Lipton’s work that we can put into practice right away. Continue reading

Social Networking & Spirituality

Something very powerful has shifted for me. When I first joined Facebook a couple of years ago, I enjoyed connecting with friends and family, but something seemed to be missing… where was the depth? Plus friends would fall away with barely a peep. At the same time, I didn’t put much of myself “out there.” I didn’t risk being vulnerable or really showing up as I am. My experience was more superficial than spiritual.

Facebook is not like that for me anymore, Continue reading
