Use your anger Anger blinds us Most of us have made the mistake of acting in anger and then regretted the results of those actions. Anger makes us impulsive and we act without a thought, foresight nor any insight for that matter. It hinders us in enjoying and achieving life success. Anger takes over Anger takes ...

Isn't it amazing how often life knocks us on the head and we persist to move on regardless? We sometimes do not learn to enjoy and achieve in life until everything else has been exhausted. Well that's what I went through. I had been reading interesting material on letting go and trust the ...Isn't it amazing how often ...

It is often said that man is born into this world with absolutely nothing. I do not agree with that as man has at least two things with him; a free will and the right to be himself. It is easy to convince a person to hand both over, especially when growing up and when the person is not aware of his/her individuality ...

There are many of us conce ed of what is happening at these times we live. We are seeing eruptions, wars being started, dangerous pests roaming around the world, the global warming, uncontrollable weathers and unusually fierce weather phenomena in normally calm areas etc. it's like Pandora's box has been opened and ...

It's amazing how in most societies there is a consensus or unwritten agreement or unspoken law that handicapped people are somehow just half a measure at best. It seems as though the handicapped person gets immediately categorized and mentally placed on a shelf containing "half" participants of society.

So often it's too easy to criticize one's own behaviour, words or lack of doing this, that or the other. How often do we set ourselves up to be disappointed with ourselves? For instance the New Year resolutions, where we promise ourselves and others to 'better' ourselves in certain areas, like stopping smoking ...

The fear of "losing it all" often blinds us to what we really have and our riches. Many people hang onto jobs they are miserable with and hang onto situations that are "secure" instead of letting go and go for new pastures green where they find way to enjoy and achieve life success. This can be dangerous as we get ...

There is a great difference in waking up fresh and nourished in the morning after a good night sleep or still feeling tired and sleepy until midday. The morning is the most productive time for those that are awake and alert and have time on their hands before the telephones and meetings start. There is no need to ...

How often have you had a pang of fear in your guts when faced with something that you find threatening as you do not know it? Fear of the unknown threat, terror or unmapped future becomes so often stagnating that its effect is like imprisonment. As you do not know what you are up against you allow your fear to take ...

It's amazing how often people get upset when their plans do not work out exactly as they had planned, when they feel that things have gone wrong. We seem to be hardwired to having success at every turn in life and having everything go smoothly and no hiccups along the way. Well, I got news for you! Life does not turn ...

You can rise like the Phoenix from the ashes! It’s amazing to see how some people always manage to stand up and continue when they have been blown over by life. Some seem to thrive in difficulties and grow to enormous emotional strength in dire circumstances, while other succumb and give up or get ill or even worse ...

Think about how much time we waste on bad emotions we keep due to not being able to forgive. The inability to forgive sets our life on hold, we cannot move on and we get stagnated. We get blinded to the opportunities beyond the thing we need to forgive. We do not forget. But forgiving starts in our own heart, you need ...

“How can I get past these obstacles?” “How can I deal with these difficult situations?” These and many similar questions I often get from clients and it’s true with most people that they see a multitude of obstacles and hindrances when movig on with their lives.

Concentrate on your strengths In my work as a psychologist and a coach I often get people saying to me that they need to be better at or strengthen certain traits they have or get a better education or get better at some personal characteristics. Doing that they limit their possibility of enjoying and achieving life ...

Too stubborn to learn the easy way Isn’t it amazing how often life knocks us on the head and we persist to move on regardless?

Negativism is always limiting You put on side cover and limit your view. It's easy to fall into the negative mode when things don't come out the way you planned or are threatened by changes, but there lies an opportunity! Hindrances can be opportunities in disguise We often set ourselves a certain target that is on a ...

It's all too common to hear people saying that they wished they were somewhere else in life. That they had been more successful and wished they were in the position of someone else they look up to. I was there too. Wait a minute! Do we really have to do this to ourselves? No, of course not! Each day brings with it an ...

So often we accept the declarations that others have made conce ing our own lives, wellbeing or fate. It is imperative that we recognize that in order to achieve what we want in life, we must not give our power away to others by accepting their declarations conce ing our affairs. When one decides that he or she will boldly declare good fortune, wellness, joy,etc. relative to his or her life, all of heaven will break loose!Goodness and mercy shall surely follow. From birth, we are often told what we are going to be.

Seems that everyone who writes to me signs their letters "love and light." It has such a bright uplifting sound to it. Lightworkers are being taught to hold the energy of the light and to equate love with a warm white light that heals and protects. After what feels like an age of suppression ...

How to overcome fear God's way? Jesus Christ redeemed you from the curse of fear according Galatians 3:13. To overcome fear God's way and overcome all the attacks of the spirit of fear you have been given mighty divine weapons: prayer, thanksgiving to God for answered prayer, the name of Jesus, your faith, God's Word and your own faith-filled words.

A great tool to help you with your journey towards tapping into your intuitive self is to keep a Psychic journal. Keep it with you, so you can jot notes down as they come up. Write down any strange coincidences. Do you keep running into the same person? Do you see someone that you just thought of even though you haven seen him or her for a long time? Have you heard the same song over and over again from different sources? Has a friend of your just said something that you know in your Soul is "true"? Are you continuously seeing the same number, color, animal or anything at all?

Oral hygiene, remineralization toothpastes and alkaline nutrition can save your teeth. The following ten steps may not only save one's teeth and gums, but also one's life. Why? Because many underlying causes of disease are affected as well.

I arrived into Toronto, Canada last night after a long day of traveling. Groggy and a bit spaced out (!) this morning, I begin with my cup of coffee and computer in hand. Looking at my schedule filled with "to do's", I'm also going over all the synchronicities/coincidences which had occurred over the past week in Califo ia. Before I had left, I had a couple of weeks chalk full of personal questions that I needed answers to; mainly around whether or not I will move and if I should expand my workshops into Califo ia.

Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Marie Curie, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Mahatma Gandhi, Mother Teresa … there are many people throughout history who have changed the world through responding to inner inspiration. We call these people geniuses.

When you get up in the morning you are in your most positive vibrational state. To keep these positive vibes going, begin your day with good feeling thoughts. The following routine will help you establish a positive vibrational tone for the rest of the day. It will help you to align with your natural state of well-being, have more clarity, increase your zest for life, and attract harmonious relationships and circumstances. Even if parts of your day deviate from that starting point, with continued practice you will find that you will have more control over your reactions.

One of the most important lessons I’ve learned from my Guide Group is that accidents are anything but accidental. They are actually pre-planned events that we personally choose to take part in during our present inca ation for the express purposes of expediting our learning and spiritual growth.

In another article I put together a list of nine signs and symptoms of spiritual awakening that I found essential to the awakening process. In this article, I discuss in detail one of the signs of awakening that could be called "repeating incidents." This is when you have the same thing (particularly something out-of-the-ordinary) happen to you two or three (or more) times in a relatively short span of time, like, say, 24 hours. The repetition assures that you notice what your higher self wants you to notice.

Can you be alone and quiet? Can you simply sit and be still in silence, with YOU? Are you walking around unconscious, asleep? It seems that everywhere we go these days there is “human” noise of some kind or other obscuring the peace of quiet. One typical day: Bank - music playing from small radio on the counter. An advertisement is broadcasting on two large TV screens, with sound. Two people in line talking on cell phones and yes, one at the counter talking on a cell while interacting with the Customer Service Agent.

Everyone we know is experiencing some form of increased "pressure" during these transforming times. These pressures may appear in the form of financial struggles, relationship challenges or health issues. It is helpful to understand from both a scientific and spiritual view point, that any particular form comprises only a small percentage of "all that is" about your life. It is equally helpful to live life from the perspective that you are one part of a collective. One individual calling forth the changes we are experiencing collectively. We do not want things to remain the same!

Ancient wisdom can help the spiritual traveler in the modern world. In the second passage of the Tao Te Ching we find a profound message that reflects one of the most important virtues taught by spiritual leaders and writers today. Letting go is a simple spiritual concept that many people struggle with. Especially in Western culture the idea of giving up is frowned upon; children are taught to be tough and fight through every life situation. But letting go is the real measure of courage.

I never think or talk about age because I don’t wish my subconscious to have these preconditioned ideas of what to expect when you are a certain age, and this has worked well for me. My body is healthy and supple and I look/act/feel/think much younger than my years. But while appearing years younger is fantastic, it can have disadvantages as well. This body doesn't really workout. Its idea of a workout consists of yoga and spending hours everyday dancing.

Since early in 2007 the efforts to deliver a message of hope as offered in A Course in Miracles to prisoners have been ongoing. Prisoners have been a pet project for this writer for several reasons. The first of these reasons might be attributed to the personal experience of having served most of a ten year sentence in prison, but the greater reasons have to do with what occurred while there. It was 1974 and I was twenty-four years of age at the time.

There seems to be a growing fad and obsession with the idea of the Law of Attraction. While I do believe self-reflection and the effort to begin monitoring our thoughts is a good stepping-stone, I feel a lot of this concept is being manipulated and abused by some.

According to the dictionary the word intuition is the apparent ability to acquire knowledge without inference or the use of reason. It comes from the Latin word 'intueri', which is often roughly translated as meaning ‘to look inside’ or ‘to contemplate’

There is wisdom that exists within you that is available to you for shifting your perspective on the problems of your life. There are ways to tap this wisdom that are simple and accessible, and you can get in touch with a higher understanding. You may have a question you want to ask, or you may just want to listen and experience the guidance and wisdom that come forth. You may ask for wisdom about a current relationship, a career decision, a financial issue, a challenge in the life of someone else, or a difficulty in the world.

Terrified of the dentist? Heal dental caries naturally with butter oil and cod liver oil, oral care, remineralization and correct nutrition, including a life-long alkaline-forming diet be so vital for dental health. This article presents alte ative dental research. Much of what we have been taught about tooth decay in schools and colleges is either wrong or incomplete. Interesting research by Ramiel Nagel and Dr. Weston Price explains why incorrect nutrition is the real cause of tooth decay. Back in 7th grade, I had a friend who was really religious.

Ex-CIA man talks to his plants and found they answer back. Or, a writer who kept in contact with an explorer in the North Pole but didn't use a radio- just the mind. There's a college where scientists worked out a system of Morse Code to communicate with Astronauts on the far side of the moon. Even Hollywood has seen this phenomena at work receiving eerily similar scripts from writer's around the world - flooded with similar scripts in batches at different times. French researcher, Dr. Paul Joire had observed this phenomena particularly with subjects who were in a trance or hypnotized.

Love naturally flows out of the present moment, which is the only moment that exists. The present moment is what is real. When we bring a memory from the past, a fantasy of the future, a fear, a judgment, or any other self-centered thought into the present moment, those thoughts draw us out of the present-moment reality, where love and the potential for happiness exist, and into the ego's world, which is a world of discontentment, judgment, striving, and desiring. All of the pain in the world is created by identifying with such thoughts.

When the movie The Secret became a big hit several years ago it planted a seed in the mass consciousness that we can all create our individual reality from our imagination. After releasing the genie out of the bottle, so to speak, many people began wishing and focusing on the physical objects they could attain because their focus was on a perceived dualistic reality. Little did they know that the power they just discovered was meant to create a deeper understanding of their innermost desires and provide them a way to manifest those desires.

The effect of self-worth on your spiritual development can become very subtle and easy to miss. It is very important to pay attention to it in your daily reflection, especially if you are wondering why you aren’t developing faster, or why you’re still so far behind. It is important to reflect about daily events and see how you would do something differently from how you did it last week. By putting daily events in your diary and reflecting on them, you ensure that you

I've worked with a few doze Fire Starter clients in the past few weeks on career optimizing, transitioning, start ups, reinventions, product ideas, social media strategies and balancing it all without burning it out. {And I adore each and everyone of you.

Set firm boundaries. Laugh with them. Keep your word. Honor them. Respect them. Not just as little ones. Keep it up through all the stages, especially the teen years.

The concept that we all are one with each other, and with the Universe, is far easier for most of us to espouse than to truly understand. One of the basic tenets of most spiritual belief systems is that the entire Universe, including our world and each of us, was created by an all-powerful Source that is beyond the ability of our human minds to comprehend completely. The teachings in Lessons from the Source: A Spiritual Guidebook for Navigating Life’s Journey all have their foundation in that premise, and the first section of the book, which follows, offers an explanati

This world is really focused on getting and having. Think about it. As you read this article you most likely feel that you still have some unmet needs. They may be in finances, love, family, career or spiritual development. We all want to get and have, and what we’re accustomed to doing is using our own will to decide exactly what we need and how to get it. But we can’t possibly experience consistent abundance until we’re prepared to take a good look at the cause of all scarcity and pain.

The beginning of January I listened in as Jennifer McLean interviewed guest Geoffrey Hoppe, who channels Adamus St. Germain, on her "2010 Predictions Week" teleseminar series. According to Adamus St. Germain, the theme for 2010 is "trusting in what you cannot see yet," which is part of preparing for 2012. In this article, I discuss three of the important myths St. Germain pointed out in the ninety-minute interview. We will need to let go of these myths as part of preparing for 2012. Myth #1
