4 Ideas to help trigger more "ah-ha" moments
2008-02-08 04:43:00
We've all been there. You can hear a penny drop in the silence as you to realize something makes sense in your life that didn't before. The truth is passed on and grasped through life experience. You may describe personal revelations as "ah-ha" moments, those instances when you gain profound insight to raise your soul-level awareness. Yet, how can you connect with your soul in ways that will generate more positive developments in your life? You may be eager to reframe unresolved feelings and confusing events. To become an astute witness, you must learn to step back from your conditioned mind.  Consider these ideas to help trigger more "ah-ha" moments:  1) Choose to not to view yourself as 'victim.'  Its a reflex to attribute blame, to judge about what you perceive was wrong with a person or a situation, and to complain how you suffer.  This attitude diverts focus from growth, nurtures negative energy and further di...

5 Ways to live openly with apparent duality
2008-02-07 23:50:00
To live without judgement is to allow apparent duality while sensing the value in everything.  Rearrange your thoughts so that the sharp edges of life go right through you.  Wisdom is knowing you are nothing.  Those who know keep quiet, live impartially, do not discriminate.  We can evolve to learn more about the unsentimental sort we are:1) Live a unified life. Our standards of perception are grounded in the physical world.  Comtemplate that criticism isn't always necesary or helpful.  Choose to be at peace with what you observe.  Move freely without attachment to outcomes.  Forget ideas of where you think you should be.  Its all illusion. Trying itself only exists because of beliefs of not trying exist.   Decide to approach every situation with an unbiased attitude.2) Choose not to explain yourself.  Sense the texture of misunderstanding that you create.  Don't get caught up in wh...

Journey back to love
2008-02-07 07:26:00
You may not realize you are on a healing journey back to experience unconditional love and compassion.  This process requires that you take steps to discover and come-to-terms with your inner wounds.  Didn't know you had any? You are invited to explore everything about yourself, including the reasons behind your mindsets.  Certain aspects of yourself are imbalanced and would benefit from re-alignment.  Life offers opportunities to re-balance your perceptions and your self-view.1) Teach yourself to discern emotional wounds.    As you discern reasons for your own discomfort, you evolve to a position where you can decide to take steps to heal yourself.  If you choose, you can also share your lessons learned and assist others to heal.2) Develop your compassion.  The ability to develop a more positive attitude about your own life and conditions enables you to further your healing process and also to develop new insight into compasio...

10 behavioral revelations from Allan and Barbara Pease

Allan and Barbara Pease are experts in human relations and body language.  They have sold over 20 million books including, Why Men Don't Listen and Why Women Don't Read Maps, Why Men Lie and Women Cry and The Definitive Book of Body Language: how to read others' thoughts by their gestures.  They're also popular public speakers.Yet, even if you have never heard of these people, these 10 tips taken from their books will trigger your own "ah-ha" moments.  After all, as you dream, devise a plan and proceed unconsciously, its your underlying thoughts and emotions that determine the result: 1) Being perceptive means being able to spot contradictions between someone's words and their body language. (Being self-aware means discerning these things in yourself).2) For a man, success in the mating game relies on his ability to read the signals being sent to him, as opposed to being able to initiate.  Women's ...

Buddha & views to shatter false assumptions
2008-02-06 10:46:00
Sometimes inspirational mentors can be well-known yet, rather obscure.  They can set an ideal or a standard which prompts you to reflect on how you view yourself.  For me, Buddha represents mystery and heightened awareness. The three phases of his life experience--Siddhartha the prince, Gautama the monk, and Buddha the Compassionate, enlightened one, all set examples that urge the rest of us to redefine our own awakening:1) Discover the truth.  According to Buddha, the individual person or concrete sense of self are illusions.  He grew to sense how ignorance and attachment lead human beings to create false assumptions and misunderstandings, including getting stuck in a limited self-view, rather than embracing unconditional love and infinite potential.  He urges us to willingly rethink the meaning and temptations of ownership, possession and control.2) Believe in karma.  This brings us to the principle of...

7 Ways to experience your authentic self
2008-02-06 05:06:00
To experience your authentic self would mean to experience your deepest, heart-felt dreams.  As you evolve to deduce that how you think creates who you are, then you will sense benefits in these steps which can guide you to get-in-touch with your soul:1) Be present.  No matter what you have in mind, to be present solely in body won't get you where you wish to go.  You need to evolve to be present emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually.  This implies developing greater holistic awareness of yourself.  Sift through the barriers you project that keep you focused and grounded in the past.2) Speak your truth.  This means you learn to express how you feel with no fear of judgment, reprimand, criticism or punishment.  You can express feelings while nurturing love and respect for others, and for yourself.  As you work on whatever issues relate to your particular soul development, you will also connect wit...

4 Tips to discern more about yourself through blogging

The more you read about blogs and blogging strategies, the more you may think about how similar strategies could assist you in different ways. Inspired by Tina Su of ThinkSimpleNow.com  who wrote a great guest blog on Problogger, and also inspired by ideas offered by Jason Ivers on  A Miracle A Day.com, I decided to prompt you to ask some of your own questions to empower you to develop dreams in your own way:1) Why are you blogging? Lots of people blog to pass the time.  You may do it when you're bored, daydreaming or, to satisfy a desire to learn.  Some of us blog to connect with like-minded people, to search for answers, to obtain advice or direction or, as a means to compensate for emotional voids.  You may be driven to forge relationships or to postpone another reality.  Probe yourself with questions to get the ball rolling.  As you figure out why yo...

Transcend the pain

Do your habits of perceiving and understanding your life serve you or do you serve them? Pain is a signal you can learn to explore and grasp at different levels of awareness.  What you sense in your present, or anticipate in your future is grounded in your limited view ofthe past.  How would you dissolve unwanted patterns and unlock your true intuition?You only cope with pain as you accept and understand its message.  As you evolve to recognize meanings behind your pain, that is, the reasons for past emotional wounds in need of healing, the quality and intensity of your pain changes.  In other words, you discover more effective ways of dealing with it. You can react positively to pain, and find ways to heal.  You can encourage an absence of intention to dwell on the past.  The more pain you expect, the quicker the controlled will of your ego will thwart your plans to access your unconscious, and the harder it becomes to filter your percep...

What are you trying to prove?
2008-02-03 12:57:00
You may be unsure how you would define your sense of success. Perhaps you wonder whether the way you approach the subject now could or should change. As you go through your process of self-reflection, it will help to eliminate what success isn't: 1) Success isn't defined by what you do. The nature of your work isn't an accurate measure of self-worth. Your identity isn't based on the category or label you get in relation to your source of income. Success isn't something you gradually achieve based on your level of responsibility, social status, military rank, position, employer, pension fund or, degree of external approval that evaluates your performance. If you earn a lot of money or a little money, this doesn?t translate into a lot or a little success. Its not allocated based on seniority. Its revealed based on whether you learn to do what you do to the best of your ability. 2) Success isn't guaranteed (or not) by your Alma Matter. The institutions that provide y...

Rethink the value of your dreams
2008-02-03 07:49:00
For some reason, you may sense a desire to probe the depths of your soul.  You might be searching for answers and have been told the answers you seek lie within. Where does this lead you? Many people don't yet realize dreams are an extremely valuable tool to raise self-awareness.  As you self-examine, you also develop and strengthen extra-sensory perception.   You may underestimate your gifts and the path can follow to clarify and shape these priceless treasures. These questions are offered to help guide yourjourney:1) What's the connection?  Since some dreams are actually messages conveyed from other dimensions, learning to recall your dreams is actually developing your ability to recognize and listen to messages from  dimensions other than the physical dimension where you are.  The dream messages you receive may seem to be from people you know or strangers.  Each one is significan...

James Van Praagh is a mental medium who interacts with 'the Other Side' in ways that may inspire human beings to communicate more effectively as they are.  His life work connecting the Spirit realm with our own encourages us to prepare to be more receptive for different kinds of communication throughout our lives.In your own life, you may expect clear directives, familiar words and behaviors.  You may overlook subtle messages and reactions that urge you to listen to your intuition, or another side to a situation.  We each have opportunities to review experiences and rethink how we respond.  Learn to accept things are not always what you initially think.1) Focus on external messages.  If you're deadset on joining a particular business, organisation or furthering a relationship, and things seem to go wrong, you may be missing important messages.  When you make repeated, incorrect turns,feel misdirected, like the ...

Poised for change

Analysis of the week on dream submitted by P.S. of Torquay, Australia.Dream:  During my dream, my male friend and I approached two young jockeys.  They were in the saddle of their race horses in the middle of a race.  Yet, these horses we focused on weren't winning.  Curiously, these jockeys and the race were in slow motion. I decided to take control.  My friend reluctantly followed.  We ran up to the jockeys, I pushed them off their horses.  We struggled to push the horses to the finish line.  We beat all the other horses.  I yelled at my friend for being slow, yet I felt guilty.In reality, my friend and I had bet on two horses that didn't place in that particular race.  We were angry and disappointed about our choices as well as the small financial loss.  I admit, I'm also rather negative in my thinking and somewhat critical in my comments to this friend and other ...

What are your most bizarre or agonizing beliefs and why do you color them this way? Why choose to project certain emotions with certain images? How does it shape your illusions?Illusions may be seen as mental blocks you create when you decide not to deal with your emotional discomfort or its underlying causes. You have an incredible ability to condition your mind to believe anything, and your choices always offer ongoing chances to learn.  Whenever you generate negative emotions, your vibration is slow and dense and life you choose to experience is on that wavelength. You draw discomfort and pain toward you or people who seem to evoke it.  This is your unconscious request. Vibes reverberrate. You convince yourself of doubt and fear when you only really invent them.  You may feel disheartened by aspects of your existence, and yet, you create it all by refusing to confront patterns you don't want to see.

John Holland & 4 tips to evolve at your pace
2008-01-29 13:29:00
Its common for people to question how to "tune into" their lives.  John Holland 's 2003 book explains how he was "Born Knowing" that he was a psychic medium, but it took him years to decipher the messages all around him that have led him to live the life he does today.  He has taught me the value of not listening for what I want to hear, but the value of opening my senses to detect all that I need to experience for my own personal progress.Of course, not everyone feels destined to follow an esoteric path.  Whatever you're working toward, it has already been sticking out in your mind.  It makes sense to pause and reflect differently about what's going on around you, even if you don't make heads or tails of things, at least not right away.  1) Probe your senses for clues to your gifts.  Information comes to us in different forms.  We get words, feelings, images, smells, tastes and ex...

When it comes to goals, you may wonder where to go from here.  You may be bombarded with choices and feel unsure of your next steps.  Take a moment to imagine what your world would be like if you lived consistently from your heart, expressed love and appreciation to people more than you already do.  You may be less aware of your true hopes and fears than you are about other aspects of your life.  If you are aware of your feelings, you may find it challenging to express them as you would like.  As you assess where you are,  and move ahead, these steps can guide you:1) Listen to vibes within yourself.  You may forget to listen, but your own energy waves communicate as vibrations.  As you become more attuned to your energy fluxes, you will make choices that create a more harmonious life.  You will take steps that enable you to feel more comfortable and confident and achieve a new equilibrium.2) Review the meanin...

4 Advantages to connecting with your spirit guides

Trigger your wounds so you can heal

Engaging in relationships triggers wounds.  That's right.  You invite people into your life to help you confront aspects of yourself that you have been avoiding, ignoring or disempowering. People we encounter behave in ways we need to experience, tell us what we need to hear, whether or not this enables us to feel good at the beginning.Relationship choices are conscious or unconscious efforts to awaken our dormant compassion and fearlessness. Every person you meet prompts you to rethink why you have become convinced you feel hurt or defeated.  You can choose to believe the presence of each person confirms your distorted beliefs about yourself or, you can interact to get to the bottom of your guilt, shame, distrust, and inner wounds.Each of us lives an earthly reality that is partly distorted. This helps explain why it can seem difficult to uncover our true feelings, and get to identify our authentic dreams. It takes courage to be willing to turn inside and ...

They are actually outward symptoms of your misunderstandings and false beliefs, ironically created to sidetrack you from the dreams that drive your soul.

You may perceive yourself as the kind of person who is overly-sensitive, too easily discouraged and quickly gives up on yourself before you give yourself a real chance. You may forget, but you didn’t always think this way. Something happened to shatter your self-confidence. Right now is the perfect time for a crash course in the benefits of risk-taking.  Choose to remove the foggy glasses to perceive differently. 1) Discern your innate patterns. As an infant, when you were learning to walk, chances are, you didn’t perfect this skill right away. Infants instinctively exert effort to pick themselves up, after each fall. Since you likely walk upright these days, or at least have experience doing so, you weren’t completely discouraged after your first attempt at walking.

I know a divorced man who searches for his dream partner. By choice, he has repeatedly dated women who don't seem to meet his ideals. His pattern has been to see multiple women at the same time because he fears the one he starts out with won't work out. Just as he predicted, things fell apart. The others broke it off as well, after learning that he hadn't been loyal, honest, trustworthy or faithful.Whatever the nature of your personal life, your self-image is conveyed in your thoughts and behaviors with others.
