Healing Childhood Wounds by Going Back and Within

Events from childhood, our first experiences, have the power to shape our lives. Some do so immediately, offering us challenges to overcome and encouragement to make use of our talents and interests. In the process character is built, and we make the first steps upon our personal paths. Other events seem to lay dormant until adulthood, when our closest relationships help to bring out the deepest aspects of ourselves. This is when unexamined lessons can be put to use and untended childhood wounds make themselves known in a call for healing.

We may discover issues of trust coming up, or perhaps we find ourselves mirroring actions from our past instinctively. No matter the case, we have the power within us to heal ourselves at the deepest level. With the wisdom of an adult, we can be the loving parent or guardian we needed as a child. Knowing that we are each whole spiritual beings having a human experience, we can nurture ourselves from that wholeness, and then reach out to others as well. We can recreate scenarios in our mind’s eye, trying different outcomes and following them to their logical conclusions. In doing so, we may be able to imagine possible reasons a situation occurred as it did, and even accept that it could not have happened any other way. With the wisdom born from age and experience, we might be able to see events from a different perspective, bringing new understanding and freeing ourselves from any hold the past may have on us.

Life offers opportunities to clear these weeds in the gardens of our souls. However, when we want to focus on easier and more pleasant tasks, we are likely to pass up the chances, leaving the wounds to continue to drain our energy and resources for living life fully today. We might find we need support to face the events of the past, so turning to a trained professional who can offer tools for healing can be a valid choice. As long as we remember that the child we were lives on within us, we are always free to go back and right old wrongs, correct mistaken perceptions, heal wounds, forgive, and begin anew.

Self Development

Nowadays, the terms self development, self improvement, self growth and self help have become popular. You can find many books and websites on these subjects. People are beginning to turn inside to find the solution to their problems. They seek knowledge, techniques, workshops, lectures and teachers who can show them the way. People begin to understand that self development and self growth will improve the quality of their life.

The major keys to self development and self growth is the subconscious mind. By changing the contents of the subconscious mind you change your habits, behavior and attitudes. This is brought about through visualization, affirmations, meditation and by analyzing behavior and habits.

The process of inner change requires inner work. It is not enough to read, you have to practice what you read, and this needs time and effort. There is no such thing as instant self improvement. Any inner change takes time, and there must be motivation, desire, ambition, perseverance and dedication. Outer and inner resistance and opposition must be taken into account too. Upon starting any self development program, most people will usually encounter inner resistance from their old habits, and from the people around them.

With a strong desire to change, build new habits and improve is needed to resist any laziness, desire to give up and the ridicule or opposition from family, friends or colleagues, which you will have.

There is a simple and effective technique to use, watching other people. By watching how people behave and act in various situations, you can then look inside yourself, to find out if you behaved in the same way under the same conditions. This looking within is called mirror work.

When you see people with certain traits of character, or a certain kind of behavior that you do not like, examine yourself to see if you have it also. If you do, visualize and rehearse in your mind a different sort of behavior. In your mind's eye you will see yourself with the opposite traits of character. To manifest a new behavior visualize your self in situations.

When you encounter traits of character or behavior, which you do like, visualize their advantages, benefits and the importance it would have in your own life and soon you will act in this way in daily life.
In this way you will have learned and benefited from the behavior and actions of the people around you, at work, at home, in the street and everywhere else, from people in real life, and from watching people on the screen. This is never for the purpose of judging them or taking advantage of them, but for learning how to act, react and behave in a better way. This process has another benefit, it increases the knowledge about how the mind and thoughts influence the behavior and actions of people.

Follow these steps to take advantage of this technique

1. Look around you and watch how people behave in various circumstances. Watch the people you meet at home, work, at the supermarket, on the bus, train and on the street. Watch and learn also from people interviewed on TV, and also from movies.

2. Watch how people talk, walk and react, and how they are consequently treated by others.

3. Pay attention to the way people use their voice and how they react to others' voices. Watch how you feel and act when people shout or speak softly. Watch what happens when people get angry, restless and upset and what happens if they are calm and relaxed.

4. If you do not like what you see, analyze what and why you do not like it, and then analyze your own behavior to find out whether you behave in the same way. Be honest and impartial in your analysis.

5. If you discover that you manifest some of these undesirable traits of character and behavior, affirm to yourself often, that every time you manifest these traits or behavior, you are going to be conscious and aware of them, and do your best to avoid them.

6. Play in your mind a mental scene of how you would like to behave. Repeat it several times a day, every day.

7. When you detect a sort of behavior or character traits you like and desire to possess, try to act in a similar way. Here too, visualize several times each day a scene, where you act and behave in that different way.

8. You can also decide to change some habit and behavior patterns and develop new ones, because you believe they are necessary and beneficial, even without seeing them in others first.

9. Think and visualize over and over again in your mind how you would like to act and behave. Constantly remind yourself of the changes you desire to make, and strive to act according to them. Each time that you find yourself acting according to your old habit, remember your decision to change and improve, and act accordingly.

10. Do not be disappointed or frustrated if you do not attain fast results. It does not matter how many times you fail or forget to behave as you desired. Persevere with your efforts and never give up, and you will begin to see how you and your life change.

Surround Yourself with Love

Even though it might not always seem like we have much control over who we are with in our life- we do.

In our everyday life we are surrounded by a variety of people. Some of the people we deal with on a daily basis are a joy to be with, and their loving presence nurtures and encourages us. Others may have the opposite effect, draining us of our energy, making us feel tired and exhausted. Our well-being can be easily influenced by those around us, and if we can keep this in mind, we will have greater insights into the quality of our social interactions and their energetic effect on us.

Once we think more deeply about the people we interact with, it becomes easier for us to work toward filling our lives with people who help us cultivate healthy and positive relationships. Even though it might not always seem like we have much control over who we are with, we do.

The power to step back from toxicity lies within us. All we have to do is take a few moments to reflect on how another person makes you feel. Assessing the people we spend the most time with allows us to see if they add something constructive to, or subtract from, our lives. Should a friend sap our strength, for example, we can simply set the intention to tell them how we feel or simply spend less time with them. We will find that the moment we are honest with ourselves about our own feelings, the more candid we can be with others about how they make us feel. While this may involve some drastic changes to our social life it can bring about a personal transformation that will truly empower us, since the decision to live our truth will infuse our lives with greater happiness.

When we surround ourselves with positive people, we clear away the negativity that exists around us and create more room to welcome nurturing energy. Doing this not only enriches our lives but also envelopes us in a supportive and healing space that fosters greater growth, understanding, and love of ourselves as well as those we care about.

Release Your Past

To often the experiences from your past can cause negative emotions that affect all areas of your life. These negative emotions can put you into a repetitive pattern, a loop, similar to a computer programs “Do While” loop that when a particular condition is met a certain code (path) is taken until that condition is no longer met. When the same negative emotion tied to a memory is visited over and over, the same result will be experienced and you will go through it again and again, never ending, never able to completely move forward.

Becoming stuck in this repetitive pattern of emotions can eventually cause fear, illness, anger (etc), in your body and areas of your life (relationships, career, etc). By neutralizing these negative emotions you will be able to move into a place of happiness, peace and abundance.

So, “how do you do this?” It is very simple actually. Since many of life’s experiences cause negative emotions, take a look at this list of parameters. Are there any memories and negative emotions that you can connect to one or more or even all of these?

1. Bad relationships.
2. Being bullied.
3. Being abused (physically, emotionally, verbally, sexually).
4. Being mugged, attacked or stolen from.
5. Fights in school or anything similar.
6. Experiences that impacted your confidence or feelings of safety.
7. Any bad sexual experiences.
8. Any serious illnesses from the past.

Many of life’s experiences fit into these main parameters and need to be cleared.

Read each one and make a list of people, places, or things that have caused an emotional upset for you. Go back as far as you can remember.

Now that you have your list, download your FREE PSTEC Self Help System that will free you from those unwanted emotions and feelings. Here is the link: http://www.pstecaudiosource.org/pstec/?aff_id=1411

Next, after using the free PSTEC click tracks begin to do the forgiveness work on each, one at a time, by saying out loud “I offer you forgiveness and love” pause, say “I receive forgiveness and love back” pause and feel it. If you feel any resistance, it’s ok, go back and run through the PSTEC click track again, then return to this step. Repeat until you have cleared all the negativity and attachment out.

The next step is to begin to create a new belief system. Contact me and I will show you how to do this using positive statements.

Now that you have transitioned yourself into a higher place, you can begin to move forward into a life of happiness, peace and abundance.


Namaste,

What is Reiki?

Reiki 101:

Reiki, pronounced “Ray-Key” is an ancient and most beautiful “laying-on of hands” healing practice. REI, meaning "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy", that flows through everything. Therefore, Reiki, is the universal energy that is powerful, but gentle and is life giving; its endless supply is the most natural healing system available. Reiki may also be translated as “Spirit-guided” or “soul-guided” life force energy. If one's "life force energy" is low or not in balance, then we are more susceptible to illness and stress, and if it is high and in balance, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.

Reiki heals all levels: At the physical level, Reiki supports the body’s natural ability to heal itself while ridding the body of harmful toxins. Mentally, Reiki flows into the mind and Neuropathways of the brain, allowing the release of old patterns and negative thought processes. As Reiki flows into all levels of a person’s emotional energy body, it releases blockages and stuck feelings, promoting positive feelings such as love, trust and goodwill towards self and others. When Reiki flows into the soul and spirit, it helps a person to discover their spiritual path and life purpose. It promotes the qualities of love, compassion and connects to the Divine, the Creator, the Cosmic Spirit, the All that Is.

A Reiki treatment takes place fully clothed on a comfortable futon mattress at floor level or on a massage table or sitting in a chair. A Reiki treatment can also be sent distantly. A Reiki practitioner uses a light touch by placing his or her hands on a client's body or held closely above the body with an intention to heal. A gentle feeling of warmth and tingling may be felt through the practitioner's hands.

There are eight to twelve hand placements on both the front and the back of the client. Very little pressure is applied, and there is no rubbing that may be normally associated with a massage. The ki energy flows through the practitioner and is drawn in by the recipient. The experience is often profoundly relaxing, relieving pain, and may also be energizing, creating many beneficial effects that include feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. You may feel a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you.

Many have reported miraculous results from Reiki treatments, while others may not perceive it immediately, the healing does happen. You may notice it a few days later, when you realize you're more relaxed and feeling better.

Reiki has had a positive affect on all forms of illness and negative conditions. This includes minor things like stress, headaches, tension, flu, as well as serious illness like heart disease or cancer. Where Reiki is practiced along with allopathic (western) medicine, it is found that many side effects of regular medical treatments are reduced or eliminated. This includes the negative effects of chemotherapy, post operative pain and depression as well as improving the healing rate and reducing the time needed to stay in the hospital. Reiki has rapidly gained acceptance in major hospitals, hospice care and especially among the nursing community.

Reiki is NOT intended to replace conventional medicine but to be used to complement it.

Let Go of the Toxicity in Your Life

By T.. D. Jakes

There are people who can walk away from you.

And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you: let them walk. I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone.

When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.

The bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manifest that they were not for us. For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us. [1 John 2:19]

People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay.

Let them go.

And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead. You've got to know when it's dead.

You've got to know when it's over. Let me tell you something. I've got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have He'll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it. Stop begging people to stay.

Let them go!!

If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to......

LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to past hurts and pains ........

LET IT GO!!!

If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth.......

LET IT GO!!!

If someone has angered you.

LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge......

LET IT GO!!!

If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction.... ..

LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents

LET IT GO!!!

If you have a bad attitude.... ...

LET IT GO!!!

If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better......

LET IT GO!!!

If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level in Him..........

LET IT GO!!!

If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship. ....

LET IT GO!!!

If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves.. .....

LET IT GO!!!

If you're feeling depressed and stressed ............

LET IT GO!!!

If there is a particular situation that you are soused to handling yourself and God is saying 'take your hands off of it,' then you need to.......

LET IT GO!!!

Holding onto regret....

Holding onto regret is like dragging the weight of the past with us everywhere we go. It drains our energy, leaving less available for life in the present because we are constantly feeding an old issue. This attachment can cause illness the same way watering a dead plant creates decay. We know that something new and beautiful can grow in its place if we only prepare the soil and plant the right seeds. We also know that we create our lives from our thoughts, so dwelling on the past may actually recreate a situation in our lives where we are forced to make the choice again and again. We can choose to move on right now by applying what we have learned to the present and perhaps even sharing with others, transforming the energy into something that is constructive and creative for ourselves and others.

Forgiveness is the soothing balm that can heal regret. In meditation, we can imagine discussing the issue with the self of our past and offering our forgiveness for the choice. In return, we can ask for our selves’ forgiveness for keeping them locked in that space of judgment for so long. We may also want to ask forgiveness from anyone else who may have been affected and perhaps offer our forgiveness. By replaying the event in our minds, we can choose a new ending using all that we now know. Imagine that you have actually gone back into the past and made this change, and then say goodbye to it. Release your former self with a hug and bring the forgiveness and love back with you to the present. Since we are usually our harshest critics, it is amazing how powerfully healing it can be to offer ourselves love.

Keeping our minds and our energy fully in the present allows us to fuel our physical and emotional healing and well-being today. This action frees our energy to create the dreams we dream for the future. By taking responsibility and action in the present, we can release our hold on the past.

Listen to your Heart

When we listen from our heart, the logical grid of our brain tends to soften and melt.

Most of us were born and raised in cultures that value the head over the heart and, as a result, we place our own hearts below our heads in a sort of inner hierarchy of which we may not be conscious. What this means is that we tend to listen and respond from the neck up, often leaving the rest of our bodies with little or no say in most matters. This is a physical habit, which sometimes feels as ingrained as the way we breathe or walk. However, with effort and awareness, we can shift the energy into our hearts, listening and responding from this much deeper, more resonant place.

The brain has a masterful way of imposing structure and order on the world, creating divisions and categories, devising plans and strategies. In many ways, we have our brains to thank for our survival on this planet. However, as is so clear at this time, we also need the wisdom of our hearts if we wish to continue surviving in a viable way. When we listen from our heart, the logical grid of the brain tends to soften and melt, which enables us to perceive the interconnectedness beneath the divisions and categories we use to organize the world. We begin to understand that just as the heart underlies the brain, this interconnectedness underlies everything.

Many agree that this is the most important work we can do at this time in history, and there are many practices at our disposal. For a simple start, try sitting with a friend and asking him to tell you about his life at this moment. For 10 minutes or more, try to listen without responding verbally, offering suggestions, or brainstorming solutions. Instead, breathe into your heart and your belly, listening and feeling instead of thinking. When you do this, you may find that it’s much more difficult to offer advice and much easier to identify with the feelings your friend is sharing. You may also find that your friend opens up more, goes deeper, and feels he has really been heard. If you also feel great warmth and compassion, almost as if you are seeing your friend for the first time, then you will know that you have begun to tap the power of listening with your heart.

Send Yourself Sunshine

When things go wrong, it is easy to get into a bad mood, and that bad mood has a way of spiraling out and affecting our life for days to come. In the same way, when we feel badly about ourselves, we tend to act in ways that have repercussions, again creating a negative vibe that can negatively influence the next several days.

While it is important that we allow ourselves to feel what we feel, and to be genuine, we do not have to completely surrender to a dark mood or feelings of self-doubt. In fact, the more we simply allow and accept our darkness as one part of the picture, the more easily we can also allow and accept our light. In this vein, we can temper our grey moods with an injection of sunshine in the form of sending good wishes to ourselves for the next 24 hours.

If you feel a bad mood coming on or find yourself plagued with negative feelings, take a moment to acknowledge that. At the same time, recognize that things can and will change, and that you can still have a good day, or a good week, especially if you take the time to visualize that for yourself. This is a great way to support yourself when you are working through tough times and hard feelings. When you visualize good things for yourself, you are sending yourself love and warmth, as well as encouraging yourself to keep going.

Before you even get out of bed in the morning, you can take the time to send good wishes to yourself all the way through to the next morning. As you picture your day, take the time to fill in the details—where you are going, who you will see, what you will do—and send love and good wishes ahead to yourself, as well as everyone you encounter. It will be like arriving in a new place and finding that an old friend has sent a bouquet of flowers from back home to welcome you and remind you that you are loved.

Stop the Foolishness

It's foolish to be obsessed with past failures and it's just as foolish to be self satisfied with one's small achievements. The present and future are what is important, not the past. Those who neglect this spirit of continual striving will start to veer off in a ruinous direction.

Gratitude

Be in a constant state of gratitude, this will start to bring a flow of blessings into your life. When you can be truly grateful for everything that happens, the good or the bad, you will find that your life will begin to improve. It may be challenging at first to find the positive in every situation, but once this habit of gratitude becomes a part of you, you will be surprised by what opens up for you. Begin by being grateful for the basics like food, shelter and for small things that you can easily acknowledge. From there, allow your gratitude to grow and then you will be ready for even better things to come your way.

I am grateful… for the gift of life and all my many blessings, for family and friends, for a place to live and food to eat, for the earth and the spirit of life, for the sun that shines every day and for life it creates, that I can learn and grow from experiences I may not even have wanted, but that allow me to open up to a greater awareness of myself and my world, for the love that flows to me and through me and for support for the journey that is my life.

What emotions are you creating?

Emotions are habits, and are actively created. It seems like they have a life of their own because we aren’t conscious of exactly how we create them. If we can bring more awareness into our emotional life then we can cultivate the emotions we want to experience (those that make us and others happy), and discourage the arising of those we don’t want (those that make us unhappy and generate conflict with others).

We cultivate emotions all the time. An example of how we unconsciously generate emotions is this: imagine you’re with a group of people, and you get to talking about all the things that are wrong with the world — hatred, war, intolerance, child-abuse, pollution etc. As the conversation goes on, and we get more and more involved, what happens? The chances are that we get angry, or depressed, or feel self-righteous. By focusing on things that anger or depress you (without creatively trying to see what you can actually do about these things), you cultivate these emotions.

Imagine if you did that with things that encouraged a sense of love and well-being in which we consciously set up the conditions for the arising of positive emotion.

What we resist persist

What does it really mean “What we resist persist” and how does this affect YOU?
Anytime you’re not feeling good you are resisting something.

If you feel unloved, you are resisting love.
If you feel betrayed, you are resisting trusting yourself.
If you feel abandoned, you are resisting accepting yourself fully, just the way you are.
It all comes back to you, to accepting yourself fully and completely.
It’s about being in conflict with who we really are, being in conflict with our true and abiding nature. It’s about us believing that we are limited and small when just the opposite is true. But we believe it anyway.
And then you break free from all the limiting beliefs.

Affirmation for today: I honor the perfection of the Universe

Often we try to control the universe by wishing things were different for us, but when we take a deep look into the nature of existence, we find that there is perfection in everything that happens. We tend to judge people and situations, and by doing this, we block any opportunities that may be coming to our way. The process of accepting the idea of perfection can at times be difficult, especially when there is sickness, loss, an accident or death. By believing in the ultimate perfection of all that is, we begin a journey that moves us in the direction we want to go. We may not see it yet, but if we focus on it, we will evolve into the divine vision for our lives.

Todays Affirmation: I am relaxed during times of stress

Is your body relaxed? Being relaxed can help you heal.

Do you know what disease means? Dis-ease ‘lack of ease’ so with that in mind, returning to our natural state of balance should be a goal of a healthy lifestyle.

When people are uptight and tense, they often create blockages in their chakra and body systems which may cause toxins to accumulate and disease can result.

The body and mind are interconnected so when one experiences tension in the mind, it is reflected as constriction in the body.

By being aware of the need to relax and by practicing relaxation techniques, such as meditation, one can mitigate the effects of chronic or acute stress and even pain.

Useful Transformation: At the root of all growth, we find change.

At the root of all growth, we find change. Occasionally, change and the circumstances leading up to it are a source of extraordinary joy, but more often than not they provoke feelings of discomfort, fear, or pain. Though many changes are unavoidable, we should not believe that we are subject to the whims of an unpredictable universe. It is our response to those circumstances that will dictate the nature of our experiences. At the heart of every transformation, no matter how chaotic, there is substance. When we no longer resist change and instead regard it as an opportunity to grow, we find that we are far from helpless in the face of it.

Our role as masters of our own destinies is cemented when we choose to make change work in our favor. Yet before we can truly internalize this power, we must accept that we cannot hide from the changes taking place all around us. Existence as we know it will come to an end at one or more points in our lives, making way for some new and perhaps unexpected mode of being. This transformation will take place whether or not we want it to, and so it is up to us to decide whether we will open our eyes to the blessings hidden amidst disorder or close ourselves off from opportunities hiding behind obstacles.

To make change work for you, look constructively at your situation and ask yourself how you can benefit from the transformation that has taken place. As threatening as change can seem, it is often a sign that a new era of your life has begun. If you reevaluate your plans and goals in the days or weeks following a major change, you will discover that you can adapt your ambition to the circumstances before you and even capitalize on these changes. Optimism, enthusiasm, and flexibility will aid you greatly here, as there is nothing to be gained by dwelling on what might have been. Change can hurt in the short term but, if you are willing to embrace it proactively, its lasting impact will nearly always be physically, spiritually, and intellectually transformative.

Finding Deep Strength Below the Surface

We have all faced moments in our lives when the pressure mounts beyond what we feel we can handle, and we find ourselves thinking that we do not have the strength to carry on. Sometimes we have just gotten through a major obstacle or illness only to find another one waiting for us the moment we finally catch our breath. Sometimes we endure one loss after another, wondering when we will get a break from life’s travails. It does not seem fair or right that life should demand more of us when we feel we have given all we can, but sometimes this is the way life works.

When we look back on our lives, we see that we have survived many trials and surmounted many obstacles, often to our own amazement. In each of those instances, we had to break through our ideas about how much we can handle and go deeper into our hidden reserves. The thought that we do not have the strength to handle what is before us can be likened to the hard surface of a frozen lake. It appears to be an impenetrable fact, but when we break through it, we find that a deep well of energy and inspiration was trapped beneath that icy barrier the whole time. Sometimes we break through by cutting a hole into our resistance with our willpower, and sometimes we melt the ice with compassion for our predicament and ourselves. Either way, each time we break through, we reach a new understanding of the strength we store within ourselves.

When we find ourselves up against that frozen barrier of thinking we cannot handle our situation, we may find that the kindest choice is to love ourselves and our resistance too. We can simply accept that we are overwhelmed, exhausted, and stretched, and we can offer ourselves loving kindness and compassion. If we can extend to ourselves the unconditional warmth of a mother’s love, before we know it, the ice will begin to break.

Coping with Passive Aggression

Those who cannot express negative emotions may engage in passive-aggressive behaviors that provide a means of redirecting their feelings.

Many people are taught from a young age to suppress feelings commonly regarded as negative, such as anger, resentment, fear, and sorrow. Those who cannot or will not express these emotions tend to engage in passive-aggressive behaviors that provide them with a means of redirecting their feelings. Passive aggression can take many forms: People who feel guilty saying “no” may continually break their promises because they couldn’t say no when they meant it. Others will substitute snide praise for a slur to distance themselves from the intense emotions they feel. More often than not, such behavior is a cry for help uttered by those in need of compassion and gentle guidance.

When we recognize passive-aggressive patterns in the behavior of others, we should never allow ourselves to be drawn into a struggle for power. Passive aggression is most often wielded by those who feel powerless in the face of what they perceive as negative emotions because they hope to avoid confronting their true feelings. They feel they are in control because they do not display overt emotion and often cannot understand how they have alienated their peers. If someone close to us shows signs of frustration or annoyance but claims nothing is amiss, we can point out that their tone of voice or gestures are communicating a different message and invite them to confide in us. When we feel slighted by a backhanded compliment, it is important that we calmly explain how the jibe made us feel and why. And when an individual continually breaks their promises, we can help them understand that they are free to say no if they are unwilling to be of service.

As you learn to detect passive aggression, you may be surprised to see a hint of it in yourself. Coping with the natural human tendency to veil intense emotions can be as simple as reminding yourself that expressing your true feelings is healthy. The emotions typically regarded as negative will frequently be those that inspire you to change yourself and your life for the better, whereas passive-aggressive behavior is a means of avoiding change. When you deal constructively with your feelings, you can put them behind you and move forward unencumbered by unexplored emotion.

Do you hold onto the past?

Holding onto regret is like dragging the weight of the past with us everywhere we go. It drains our energy, leaving less available for life in the present because we are constantly feeding an old issue. This attachment can cause illness the same way watering a dead plant creates decay. We know that something new and beautiful can grow in its place if we only prepare the soil and plant the right seeds. We also know that we create our lives from our thoughts, so dwelling on the past may actually recreate a situation in our lives where we are forced to make the choice again and again. We can choose to move on right now by applying what we have learned to the present and perhaps even sharing with others, transforming the energy into something that is constructive and creative for ourselves and others.

Forgiveness is the soothing balm that can heal regret. In meditation, we can imagine discussing the issue with the self of our past and offering our forgiveness for the choice. In return, we can ask for our selves’ forgiveness for keeping them locked in that space of judgment for so long. We may also want to ask forgiveness from anyone else who may have been affected and perhaps offer our forgiveness. By replaying the event in our minds, we can choose a new ending using all that we now know. Imagine that you have actually gone back into the past and made this change, and then say goodbye to it. Release your former self with a hug and bring the forgiveness and love back with you to the present. Since we are usually our harshest critics, it is amazing how powerfully healing it can be to offer ourselves love.

Keeping our minds and our energy fully in the present allows us to fuel our physical and emotional healing and well-being today. This action frees our energy to create the dreams we dream for the future. By taking responsibility and action in the present, we can release our hold on the past.

Energy in a Home

Our homes and our belongings within them all contain energy. Tend to the energy of your home as you would tend to anything you love.

Our homes are filled with energy that we create. In many cases, our relationship with the pulse of our homes is passive rather than active because we do not pay particular attention to the energy that has been established. It is only whe we regard these spaces as unique entities that we begin to understand why it is necessary to take charge of the energy that fills our homes.

Stagnant, inharmonious energy can find its way into our dwellings through many avenues. Previous occupants, builders, visitors, and the individuals who maintain a home leave a strong energy imprint behind. Objects and symbols can also have an effect on the energy of a home. When we are aware of all that can influence the energy of our spaces, we are empowered to create harmonious homes that do more than meet our need for shelter.

Exercising care with regard to who and what we invite into our homes is one of the easiest ways we can ensure that the energy within remains loving and supportive. It is not always possible to keep potentially harmful people and possessions from entering our homes, but we can take precautions. Individuals can be kept from private spaces like bedrooms and meditation areas, while property can be purified through cleansing or smudging.

During periods of remodeling or construction, Reiki symbols and other positive imagery can be printed on surfaces that will later be covered by walls or flooring. Though hidden, these will continue to attract good energy and cleanse the existent energy. Blessings can also be drawn in plain sight, where they remind us of how potently our home's energy can affect our own.

A home can appear beautiful, comfortable, and stable while still serving as a dwelling place for negative or otherwise offensive energy. If you care for your home conscientiously and with great care, you will instinctively look beyond the surface qualities of your home when assessing how it feels. Since you actively guard your home against the intrusion of unwelcome energy, you will have the time and vigor necessary to cope with it constructively when it would appear in your midst. The spirit of your spaces will respond to your thoughtful ministrations, nurturing and supporting you for as long as you choose to reside within her walls.

Psychic Tie Healing Affirmation

A psychic tie is an undue attachment, repulsion or resistance to any person, place, thing, organization, situation, circumstance, memory, experience, or addicition that influences you adversely. Psychic ties are made of negativie emotions and memories left over from detrimental encounters and experiences.

They are in the astral/mental realm, and can be seen or felt with subtle senses. They often manifest behaviorally as obsessions, co-dependent relationships, compulsive thoughts, habitual behaviours, work aholism, or addictions. They are not blessings, they are always harmful and never useful. They cause tension, frustration, addiction and slavery. It is important to always cut and release them.

When to do a Psychic Tie Cut?
~~ If you cannot go deep into meditation or cannot hear the voice of God due to distraction or mental fixation on a person/thing.
~~ Whenever you feel pulled or tugged from someone/thing
~~ When you feel angry, resentful, wronged or harmed by someone/thing
~~ When you are overly attached, dependent or addicted to someone/thing
~~ When you feel dominated or controlled by someone/thing
~~ To pray for another person to cut psychic ties with someone/thing

How to cut the Psychic Tie:

I call upon the Holy Spirit to now lovingly
cut any and all psychie ties between (myself or name of person)
and (name of person, place, or thing cutting tie with)

These psychic ties are now lovingly and completely
CUT, CUT, CUT, CUT, CUT, CUT, CUT, CUT (make scissor cut motions)
healed, blessed, loved, dissolved, released, ifted and let go
into the light of God's love and truth.

Thank you God, and SO IT IS.

Being Part of One Another

The first and most important relationship in your life is with yourself and often it is overlooked. If it is not positive then none of your other relationships will be positive either. We spend more time daily communicating with ourselves consciously or unconsciously.

The first step in creating a positive relationship with yourself is to begin to love yourself unconditionally. Stop right now with the negative self-talk and become more gentle with and accepting of yourself.

It doesn't matter what your career is or what business you have; the strength of your relationships will determine the level of your success. You can live without a sister or brother, but you cannot live without a friend. We are always in relationships, keep them positive by nourishing them.

Life is made rich through our relationships.

Let the Sun Shine In

Are you the kind of person who lets rainy days and Mondays get you down?

Psychologists say that prolonged bad weather can lead to depression and dampen your enthusiasm, leaving you feeling blue. They call this condition Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD for short.

I'm no psychologist, but it occurs to me that both the disorder and the cure are in the mind. If the sky is black and the rain won't stop, grab a philosophical umbrella and let the sun figuratively shine in. You can shop if you like to shop, spend time with friends who are fun to be with, or curl up with a good book.

Whatever you do, if you do it with a sunny attitude inside, you can beat the weather outside. You will suffer from JOY instead of SAD.

Joy comes from within!

Take Time To Be Happy

Enthusiasm creates joy. Joy creates more joy. Maintaining a joyful outlook and keeping a high level of enthusiasm can sometimes be difficult, but the more you do it, the easier it gets. The rewards always reflect what you invest.

Two ingredients are necessary for success in life, fun and fearlessness. I am suggesting you replace fear with faith and look for the fun in everyday experiences.

How many times a day do you laugh? If you don't have at least four or five belly laughs a day, you're missing out on a very important ingredient in life: fun. It's the one thing in life that can get you through any situation stress free.

POSITIVE THINKING

Positive Thinking Will Take You Anywhere You Want To Go...

A positive attitude is one of the secret ingredients you need to discover and fulfill your life's dreams. It is not the cure-all for everything that ails you or a magic potion for making you the smartest student in class or the most successful person on the planet, but coupled with other good qualities it will help you flourish and become the best you can be. High self-esteem, commitment, integrity, the gift of giving, faith and love, are some of the other ingredients.

Your attitude toward the world hinges on how you look at yourself. As you lift yourself up, you will find that the world outside becomes a reflection of what you are within.

Remember, you will get much further on one gallon of optimistic thinking than you will on a tankful of negative thoughts. The power in you begins with a positive attitude!

Know How to Overcome Any Crisis

1. Don't become part of the problem. When you are faced with an unpleasant situation, do not internalize the dispute or defend yourself in a combative manner. Concentrate on the worthwhile things in your life.

2. Accept and acknowledge the reality of your situation. You have to say to yourself, "This is the way it is, and the course of events now depends entirely on me." You can deal with your problem once you separate your emotions from the facts. Once you do that, you gain control of your situation and can make the moves necessary to resolve it.

3. Remain committed. Even when you privately may think things could not be worse, you should still wake up each morning determined to stay the course. Keep your heart and mind completely on track, and never give up.

4. Allow the experience to open you up to what you need to learn. Every situation is an education. If you open your mind to the voices of others, you will open your life and enhance your chances for growth and achievement.

5. Maintain a positive mental attitude. Regardless of the appearance of a situation, there is always good to be found. Make sure you seek out the beauty and wisdom in everything. Believe it or not, it is always there to be found.

6. Hold on to your faith. When you have faith, you reinforce your subconscious to make your life move forward and flourish. You create your own circumstances; your subconscious merely reproduces in your environment what you conjure up in your mind.

7. Consciously practice living in the present. It always helps to be mindful and aware of each moment so that you can make best use of the time you have. If you waste your energy on thinking about what can go wrong, you inhibit your ability to live each day effectively. If you live in the moment, you realize that you ahve everything you need to deal with your life. The past cannot be changed nor the future predicted, but each moment in the present is a building block to a happy existence.

Manifesting 101

The four step Law of Attraction manifestation process:

Step One: Create It
Decide what you really, really want. Is it a new home, car, or job? Is it a special someone?
Write it down, beginning with "I'm so happy & grateful I have..."
Then list the positive qualities and features of what it is you want, give the detials.
It is important to write it in the present. If you write "I want this," then you are vibrating at a frequency of want, and wanting is all you will attract. You want to be vibrating harmony with having it already.

Rather than asking for money, focus on what you want to have. The $2500 doesn't come because you asked for the money, it comes because your end result is a vacation that costs $2500...you know this because you estimated all the expenses for the vacation.

Once you have written it all down, write the end, "This or something better, for the highest good of all concerned." Give the Universe (God) an opportunity to give you something better and/or more appropriate, it knows better than we do.

Step Two: Clear It
Too often we are sending out contradictory energy, keeping what we consciously say we want at a distant from ourselves.

Clear out any contradictory (negative) thoughts with tools for clearing like Zpoint, PSTEC, or EFT. The Universe will pick up on them so it is important to release the blocks to your success.

Also clear on your intentions. If you have doubts about your motives, you will either block receiving your desire, or limit your ability to receive it in a joyful manner. Make sure you want it for the right reasons.

Keep doing this until you can think about the successful attainment of your objective without feeling any resistance.

Step Three: Live It
Now that you can think about successfully receiving your desire without feeling any resistance, do so. Really think about having it, and allow yourself to enjoy it.

Indulge in all the positive feelings you expect to experience while enjoying this thing in your life. Really feel how good it feels!

Meditate and visualize yourself really enjoying your desire, and allow the positive feelings to wash over you and through you. Do this each day.

Another great way to do this step is with a partner. Tell them, "I have this new ____ in my life and I'm so happy and grateful! Again, in the present and positive terms. Your partner says "Great, I want you to tell me more!" As you do, allow the joyfully, happy situation to feed both of you with excitement, building the vibrational energay.

Step Four: Let Go and Let God
You need to be unattached to the outcome, otherwise you may start clenching your energy, asking "Where is it?" Not great energy to be attracting to yourself.

Also, don't be attached to how it happens. You might be staring at the front door waiting for the special someone to walk in, and completely miss them because they came through the side door.

This doesn't mean you don't take action. Do what you can, let the Universe know you are serious about making things happen. Just don't be surprised if the manifestation comes in a way that doesn't seem to be directly related to what you are doing. You can do some clearing here also and Let it go!

If you've created your vision, cleared all internal objections to it, allowed yourself to experience living it and really feel how great it would be to have it, and it still isn't showing up, then you need to trust that maybe it really isn't in your best interest to have it at this present time.

Remember that God's delays are not God's denials.

Many times there is more clearing work to do. Abundance just is. It is all around. The extent to which we are not experiencing it is the extent to which we are resisting it.

Stop Resisting It! Manifest It! You Deserve It!

The 18 Rules to Happiness

Rule #1 - Stop Feeling Sorry for Yourself!
Self-pity is the very worst kind of emotion. It destroys
everything around itself, and leaves you feeling powerless.
Stop being the victim, stop feeling sorry for yourself – and be
happy.
Rule #2 – Be Grateful
The world is so fast-paced that we’re rarely grateful of its
gifts. Think of all the things you’re grateful for right now:
family, health, home, everything. Spend time being grateful
each day – and be happy.
Rule #3 – Say Yes More
We each say “No!” way too often. Try saying “Yes!” more to
all of life’s experiences. Don’t fight the river’s current. Say
“Yes!” more to emotions, situations, social invitations – and
be happy.
Rule #4 – Follow Your Bliss
In life, we often find ourselves half-way up a ladder we don’t
want to climb, rather than at the bottom of one we do. What
do you really want to be? Follow your own bliss – and be
happy.
Rule #5 – Learn to Let Go
Emotions often hold us back from true happiness and
freedom. Remember, you are not your emotions. Let go of
unwanted emotions by asking yourself “Can I let this go?” Do
it – and be happy.
Rule #6 – Do Random Acts of Kindness
Being kind is double-edged. It makes you feel happier, and
spreads that joy to someone else too. Do more Random Acts
of Kindness every day – smile, hold open a door, pay for a
coffee – and be happy.
Rule #7 – Happiness Is Only Ever Now
Most of us spend our time anywhere but in the present. We
obsess about the past, or plan for the future. Now is the only
time that really exists. Make the decision to be happy – now.
Rule #8 – Experience, Don’t Hoard!
Research shows that material purchases only boost your
happiness levels temporarily. Experiences bring more
overall joy. Enjoy safari holidays, learn a language, join a
dancing group – and be happy.
Rule #9 – Appreciate Both Sides of the Coin
How many times do we try to embrace happiness – and
reject sadness? They’re both sides of the same coin. You
cannot have one without the other. Sadness is critical. Don’t
fight it – and be happy.
Rule #10 – Be More Social
Extensive research shows that the happiest and most
successful people are those with large social networks. How
many friends do you have? Be proactive, start making more –
and become happier.
Rule #11 – Love More!
The more you love, the happier you are. Try giving everyone
and everything around you a little more love. Friends,
family, nature, even enemies – open your heart, give them
love – and be happy.
Rule #12 – Have a Dream
Dreams are the spark plugs of the spirit. They give each day
excitement and enable you to move forward. What are your
dreams? Think about it, write them down. Then do them –
and be happy.
Rule #13 – Intention Sets Direction
The outcome you expect is usually the one you receive. If
you don’t know where you’re going, any road will take you
there. So, set a great intention in everything you do – and be
happy.
Rule #14 – Enjoy Simple Pleasures
Real happiness can be found in simple pleasures and rituals.
From a daily walk in nearby countryside to a glass of wine
after work. Indulge in these, setup your own little rituals –
and be happy.
Rule #15 – Accept What Is
Many of us spend time resisting what is. We fight against our
own emotions, building up anger and resentment. Accept
what is right now. Change it if you can. But accept it first –
and be happy.
Rule #16 – Exercise and Eat Well
You are as happy as your lifestyle! For optimum happiness,
try walking for 40 minutes a day. Take Omega 3 supplements,
and eat more fish, nuts, turkey, cottage cheese. Enjoy – and
be happy.
Rule #17 – Zoom Out and Don’t Sweat
We often get a fresh perspective on life, after we lose a family
member, or survive an illness. Don’t wait for life to remind
you. Zoom out and remember your real priorities now – and
be happy.
Rule #18 – Laugh, Dance, Smile!
Take time to laugh at the craziness of life! Splash out and
enjoy to the max. Surround yourself with happiness –
wonderful music, dance classes, evenings with friends.
Smile and be happy!

Decree of Abundance

From the Light of God that I am,
From the Love of God that I am,
From the Power of God that I am,
From the Heart of God that I am,

I Decree,
I dwell in the midst of Infinite Abundance. The Abundance of God is my Infinite Source.

The River of Life never stops flowing. It flows through me into lavish expression. Good comes to me through unexpected avenues and God works in a myriad of ways to bless me.

I now open my mind to receive my good. Nothing is to good to be true. Nothing is too wonderful to have happen. With God as my Source, nothing amazes me.

I am not burdened by thoughts of past or future. One is gone. The other is yet to come.

I ask and accept that I am lifted in this and every moment into Highter Truth. My mind is quiet.

From this day forward I give freely and fearlessly into life and life gives back to me with magnificent increase. Blessings come in expected and unexpected ways. God provides for me in wondrous ways.

I AM indeed grateful. And I let it be so.


Saying it is not enough, believing it changes everything and then acting upon it changes everything, yet again!
