Reframe your thinking
2008-06-10 06:37:00
Analysis of dream submitted by B.W. of Melbourne, Australia.Dream- I was slowly descending a linear staircase.  The surroundings were a blur.  I thought I was being careful, but I still stumbled. This disappointed me. I felt like I wasn't in control of my feet, like they weren't mine.  I felt clumsy, but regained some bearings. Predominant Emotions- frustration, fear, anxiety. disorientation, and hope.Interpretation-  If you're unsure of your footing, you may not feel grounded.  You may not feel like you're on 'the straight and narrow.'  Perhaps you know someone who has deviated from a linear path, and this evokes discomfort. Your sense of moral conduct refers to your own understanding of moral integrity.  Everyone won't see "eye-to-eye."To sense  ;a move downward doesn't have to mean retreat, defeat or that things are deteriorating.  Its all about perspective.

8 Principles to get you where you're going
2008-06-09 08:00:00
Whatever your conditions, certain principles would enable you to effectively adapt.  Regardless of your view of success, these ideas will assist you to get where you're going:  1) Recognize you decide when and where you will work through something.  Whatever is on your mind requires attention.  It may involve other people or factors outside yourself.  Choose to deal with things when you're detached and nonemotional.2) Re-evaluate your focus and priorities.  The attitudes of people around you may affect you.  Remember, your thoughts are always in your control.   You have power to decide what feelings and relations are worth letting go if they don't serve your growth.3) Accept the consequences of your choices.  Accountability is key.  Indecisiveness isn't an option.  If you're unwilling to have faith and support your decisions, or, if you choose to wallow in regret, its not only harder to se...

Recognize attitude impacts more than breast cancer awareness
2008-06-08 13:06:00
Its meaningful to highlight June is a special awareness month. Choose to participate in the Breast Awareness Campaign. Many people know someone affected by cancer.  How does your attitude about healing affect your life? Positive thinking goes a long way.• The first sign of breast cancer usually shows up on a woman's mammogram before it can be felt or any other symptoms are present.• Risks for breast cancer include a family history, atypical hyperplasia, delaying pregnancy until after age 30 or never becoming pregnant, early menstruation (before age 12), late menopause (after age 55), current use or use in the last ten years of oral contraceptives, and daily consumption of alcohol.• Early detection of breast cancer, through monthly breast self-exam and particularly yearly mammography after age 40, offers the best chance for survival.• Ninety-six percent of women who find and treat breast cancer early will be cancer-free after fi...

What do you make of this Indigo reality?
2008-06-08 12:32:00
A boy named Boris Kipriyanovich, or Boriska, lives in the town of Zhirinovsk of Russia’s Volgograd region. He was born on January 11, 1996. Since he was four he used to visit a well-known anomalous zone, commonly referred to as Medvedetskaya Gryada – a mountain near the town. It seems that the boy needed to visit the zone regularly to fulfill his needs in energy. Boriska, boy from Mars, says that all humans live eternally. Boriska’s parents, nice, educated and hospitable people, are worried about their son’s fascinating talents. They do not know how others will perceive Boriska when he grows up. The say that they would be happy to consult an expert to know how to raise their wunderkind. Being a doctor, his mother could not help but notice that the baby boy could hold his head already in 15 days after his birth. He uttered the first word ‘baba’ when he was four months old and started to pronounce simple words soon afterwards. At one year and a half...

10 Steps to be more fully aware of your transformation
2008-06-07 06:22:00
On some level, all human beings sense things are changing inside and outside them all the time. You may always not be able to describe what you’re thinking and feeling, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t happening. You are learning to bring balance to unbalanced energy situations. You may ask, “how?”Energy and light convey what is happening through vibration, pulsation and other sensations. This may affect your perspective, personality and traits that evolve within yourself. Parts of you are awakening to note insights and feelings that are less familiar.1) Stop generating negative thoughts. As you learn to drop feelings of uneasiness and apprehension, you pay more attention to core feelings and your inner dialogue changes.2) Dissolve sparks of doubt. Turn off that analytic part of your mind that wants to question. Listen instead to that part of you that knows it has access to all the answers.3) Honour and reinforce who you really are. Rather than contemplat...

Which messages are you sending?
2008-06-06 08:56:00
How you choose to live sends messages back to yourself about what works and what doesn’t. As you become more discerning of your thoughts and feelings, you gain a sense of what serves you and what doesn’t.  How to accept what you have come to know as your truth? If you question ideas part of you believes are true, this essentially means you question your senses, your beliefs, your underlying faith. Why nurture doubt? Could it be messages you interpret within appear incomplete? If you do not see or experience something you truly desire immediately, this doesn’t mean the opportunity doesn’t exist. This doesn’t mean you haven’t yet imagined a way to achieve your dreams.  You may simply be unaware you have already created what you want. It’s an issue of selective perception. You may be situated in a mindset that doesn’t permit you to “see.” Will you expand your senses?It’s always possible to c...

5 Signposts to re-orient your journey
2008-06-05 10:07:00
As you progress along your life journey, it can be helpful to refer periodically to signposts, that is, ideas to ground or re-orient your experiences to keep you on tack.  Its possible for your thoughts and feelings to evolve in ways that do not serve you.  As you step back from whatever you are doing or thinking, ask yourself the impact of these points;1) No road you take is better than any other. You may have heard the phrase, "all roads lead to Rome."   Regardless of you choices of work, relationships, thoughts, feelings, leisure or other endeavours, your destination is the same. How you get there and how long it takes will vary, based on your free will and whether you choose to make things more complicated than they are.  Recognize that your assessment of 'better' is a judgment and judgment is something you are learning to dissolve completely.  2) Every choice you make is a blessing.  Your choices are ways y...

5 Steps to reconnect with truth in Nature
2008-06-04 05:49:00
What you perceive as the truth in your life may evoke discomfort.  To immerse yourself in Nature is a means of reconnecting with the inspiring and comforting side of the truth.  Outdoor enviroments are full of signs and tools to help you heal.  The perceived passage of time may distract you from what is available.  Its not only herbs and plants that contain healing properties.  Your senses offer clues.  Consider what you have in common; 1) Much like Nature, you learn, heal and change step-by-step.2) Much like Nature, every season has a place in your life.3) Much like Nature, to honor your fellow creatures produces meaning and value.4)  Much like Nature, resilience is nurtured as you learn to weather storms.5) Much like Nature, you have innate power to experience freedom.

What if "nowhere" is actually somewhere meaningful?
2008-06-04 00:33:00
How quick human beings can assume they are getting "nowhere." This hypothetical place often evokes negative feelings of impatience, frustration and confusion.  How did you get there? The imagined discomfort you feel pushes you to ask when you will leave.  Hmm...What if "nowhere" is actually somewhere meaningful? What if you are where you are and you feel as you do for good reason you haven't figured out yet?  Each of us has choices to move through life more or less aware.  You might ask, "but, aware of what exactly?"You may not realize that you frequently make different kinds of decisions at different levels.  You are only consciously aware of some of these choices, and even fewer of the implications.  Each choice can lead to more than one outcome.  If you're unaware of certain undesirable implications, then this prevents you from making another choice.As you evolve to listen to parts of your authentic...

5 Lessons from my own life experience
2008-06-03 00:34:00
We each have a series of life stories that help us explain why we are who we are.  We think, make choices, feel and interpret everything that happens within and around us.  I invite you to share your lessons about personal success. Here are 5 lessons from my life:  1) Those people who seem to cause you the most discomfort offer your greatest lessons.2) Anything that evokes our judgment reveals the source of our fear-based emotions.3) Beliefs are as as you choose. (Duality--good/bad; right/wrong, doesn't really exist).4) To accept the truth of our perception means accepting responsibility as co-creator.5) Views at a given moment stem from insight into love, forgiveness & self-acceptance.

Analysis on dream submitted by Anonymous in Melbourne, Australia.Dream- I was inside a train and sensed it was time to get off.  I stood up from my seat and reached into an overhead compartment to get my belongings.  I felt a peaceful presence beside me.  As I raised the door, I saw a pile of wool mittens.  They weren't mine.  I sensed a draft before a gust of air sucked me out the door.  Part of me knew why.  It was a good feeling, like if I didn't take heed, something key would pass me by.Predominant Emotions- anticipation, preparedness, hesitation, confidence, optimism.Interpretation- As revelations blow in, you may feel someone else has been conducting your symphony.  To stand up for yourself, you must realize you engineer your own life.  Your free will and innate power shape your decisions and how you pigeonhole yourself.  The more you listen ...

What if your reality is a hallucination?
2008-06-01 14:25:00
Some people wonder whether what they see may be a misinterpretation or an illusion. Since your view of reality is like a picture you paint with the senses, and every sensory experience is created in the mind, you may wonder if your life isn't itself a  hallucination.Each moment, you unconsciously insert new beliefs into your perception. They are forms of energy. They transform and materialize as part of your circumstances. Most people don't sense the ongoing process, but your own mental exercise continues, even now.On some level, you engage in constant self-hypnosis.  You tell yourself to believe and see certain things, and reinforce this with repetition.  How you feel reiterates what you think.  The question is, do you make the connection? Are you aware of your beliefs?If you feel dissatisfied, uncomfortable or unhappy, it may be convenient to assume you must be hallucinating.  Yet, it would seem as though...

Reconstruct your conscience
2008-06-01 05:05:00
Some people interpret a conscience.  You may describe this as an inner sense that prompts you to judge what is right and wrong in your own thoughts and behavior.  Its the part of you that helps identify the 'right action' at the right time or criticizes others.What you may not realize is your conscience, as you sense it right now, is an untrustworthy guide.  As we grow up, we adopt beliefs of others as a means of working through our own sense of what makes us who we are.  Your self-worth grows from there.  That is to say you grow to mistrust your body and mind, based on what others think.Our conscious mind is in the process of forming, evolving and changing. Throughout your life, you periodically abandon ideas that no longer fit with how you think and how your view yourself.  Underneath it all, you are uncovering your innate pattern of feelings.

Use your power to alter your life

What if someone brought your attention to the idea you only remember aspects of yourself that you consciously manifest? That is, you are selective.  You focus and limit the attention of your brain based on what you think you know. What if you miss the crux?You might say, “Whoa there! Life isn’t really as I see it?” At the same time, somewhere, not so far away, in the back of your head, echoes a persistent, “Nope...” The fact of the matter is, in all likelihood, you choose not to listen to this voice as much as you could.  Ego quashes it, to deny the truth, for reasons you don’t yet recognize. Take your senses. From a young age, you train yourself to organize information based on what you’re taught is traditional sight, smell, taste, touch and hearing. You make comparisons. You’re taught certain experiences are ‘taken in’ and described using certain senses.  That approach supposedly makes your v...

Rediscover who you are
2008-05-30 02:09:00
You may not realize it, but your views on consciousness are shaped by everything that contributes to your beliefs. This includes the community in which you live, the people you know and have known, as well as your perception of whatever happens around you. How aware are you of your true self?As you reflect, you may interpret your dreams based on how people react and judge. For example, Western cultures promote and value physical objects. This means, in some settings, productivity is measured by output other people can see and use. Some people believe if you have nothing to show for what you do, or if you aren’t like them, then, you must be lazy, or not contributing or working in meaningful ways. If you sense people are judging your choices, you also judge yourself.In other cultures, the value you offer as a human being is not necessarily quantifiable. In this view, your identity and self-worth aren’t measured based on what you do, incomes you generate or how similar your...

Dream your way to infinite gateways
2008-05-28 12:27:00
What would you say if you realized training yourself to recall night dreams strengthens your conscious memory?  What if you discovered that the more control you develop over your astral body, the more control you would sense over the dream of your waking life? Its all about discipline and learning to control your attention.  Your energy (astral) body is always with you.  It leaves and returns to your physical body at will, day or night, but remains attached by an invisible, etheral cord.  This energy body survives the death of the physical body and it senses experiences the physical body doesn't, even now.You may ask, 'how does the astral body know what to do?' It exists and functions without your knowledge until you are ready and willing to learn.  Its astonishing to discover you can do things you have consciously conditioned yourself to believe you can't.  Its unnecessary to grasp the how you do everything. ...

Reclaim your personal power
2008-05-28 03:43:00
Your sense of personal power hinges on your self-worth and whether you believe your life is at the mercy of others. Your personal power is also affected by fear-based beliefs, how you view yourself, and whether you permit emotion and drama to control you. To reclaim your personal power, its helpful to review and reframe life experiences. If you are truly honest, you will admit occasions where your reactions stem from pride, personal importance or, your refusal to take responsibility for your actions. Denial drains power.Your self-awareness grows as you evolve to stop explaining, rationalizing, defending or justifying situations and choices. Such thought processes drain your energy. As you move to the mental place where you no longer compare and judge, you stop viewing opposites. It doesn't matter whether you win or lose, prove you're right or wrong, or feel superior or inferior.  New priorities transcend all that.  You move to become more objective. And so, why deta...

Is perfection really unattainable?

Some people left a lasting impression in person. Others captured my attention with action and what I sensed to be their appealing qualities. Aspects that stand out encourage me to realize I can tap into my hidden self.2) Discern why you label mentors.  I unconsciously put each of my mentors into categories, from nationality, to gender, profession or contribution to society, and based on my upbringing, morals and values.

5 Misconceptions about truth & lies
2008-05-21 05:59:00
Lots of people reflect on what's good for them or not.  Its not always straightforward to distinguish between truth and lies.  Consider these 5 ideas which may prompt you to reflect on your own misconceptions:1) How do you feel?  If you act purely based on your sense of truth, then you would expect to feel nothing but love, happiness, inner peace and contentment. If you are permitting your mind to wander, to believe or defend injustice, suffering or rationalize discomfort, then you  hypothesize the opposite of love about society.  You are also lying to yourself that it doesn't matter.2) Where does drama originate?  Any drama or crisis you experience is grounded in lies, mainly about yourself.  It begins when you decide you aren't something you really are or, you choose to ignore what you want to be based on what you decide you should be.  If you evolved to believe you are perfect, lovable and nurture unwavering faith without lies, your...

6 Steps to explore your emotional matrix
2008-05-19 13:38:00
Many authors claim our conscious perceptions and reasoning minds only play minor roles in our true abilities to explain or resolve emotion. Let's say an underlying feeling substrate connects us all, a matrix invisible to the normal eye, yet sensed by everyone from birth.  Does conventional learning teach us to ignore or miscontrue our experience? All human beings have untapped power and access to deeper self-understanding. We each create an 'emotional matrix' or template as a guide. This is shaped by our vibes. The wider grid organizes normal energy all around you and expands your awareness when you're ready to discern its power. Consider 6 steps to better understand your emotional matrix;1) Review history. Man's early evolution used the mind to create and expand an energy field. This matrix is believed to have intensified through trance-induced states of a tribe. These people engaged in rituals with repeated rhythm and patterns that resonated at a specific frequency. Chan...
