Waiting is a skill we often ignore. It may seem to have as little value as nothingness, but in Zen, nothingness is a profound state of Being. When we focus on thinking, we tend to aspire to conclusions. This could be attempting to achieve a goal, attaining a desire or simply ending what we are doing, but the art of waiting has a different focus. With the focus on thoughts, we are much more aware of time. When our awareness goes beyond thinking, we enter a timeless moment where the Wisdom of the Body choreographs our life.

Lies I’m not upset that you lied to me; I’m upset that from now on I can’t believe you.rn—Friedrich Nietzscher There are three types of lies—lies, damn lies, and statistics.rn—Benjamin Disraeli Never chase a lie.

A TRUE friend supports you only when he believes that you are doing the right thing in your self-interest and welfare; A FAKE friend supports you always, no matter what you do. A TRUE friend respects you only when you have earned respect and act respectably; A FAKE friend "respects" you regardless of your behavior - or misbehaviour. A TRUE friend trusts you only as long as you prove yourself trustworthy, only while you do not put his trust to the test too often, and only
When we were kids, everyone had the same level of speed reading skills. We all finished reading our books more or less at the same time. As we grew older, however, there became a noticeable disparity in speed. Some of us were able to devour a book in a day while others find themselves plowing through the same book for a week! If you belong to the latter, then this is your chance to improve yourself. If you belong to the former, well, a little level-up certainly won't hurt you. Read on to learn how to improve your speed reading skills. Step 1: Keep Your Mind Active.

Mediums who are clairaudient are not seen as often as some other types of mediums and psychics. Clairaudience is the ability of psychic hearing. The individuals who display powers of clairaudience can “hear” things from other spirit forms from other dimensions. Being able to communicate with the dead and with angels, spirits, and other dimensions is the type of power that psychics and mediums possess. In order for the professional mediums to hear what the spirits from other d
Wanting to get rid of something is a stuck and resistant energy. It is also the most common thing I hear when someone comes to me for an EFT session. If, for example, you have had neck pain for two years and it's not going away, more often than not, you'll feel frustrated, angry and helpless that nothing you're doing is 'getting rid of it'. This is totally understandable and you need to begin and accept exactly where you're at and acknowledge how you feel. It can be very difficult to take a moment and ask “Why do I have this neck pain”? “When did it start”?
Write your goals! How else are you going to stimulate your reticular activating system? My what?!? Uh, you know, your reticular activating system (RAS).

All of us encounter unlikeable people from time to time. These are people who in one way or another manage to be very unpleasant to us in every encounter. Yet, even though the experience of coming across an unlikeable person can be very unpleasant, there is always something we can learn from the experience. Sometimes the only thing we learn is to avoid that person in the future. But, isn't that a valuable lesson? In the future, we may learn to avoid unpleasant people quickly,
Do you feel it? The shift, I mean. There is a shift happening all around us on the physical level and the energetic, vibrational level. We are changing. The earth is changing. Everything is changing. One common theme that I notice happening for a lot of people is that their reaction to all of this change is to go into fear. The ego doesn’t like change. The physical conditions (talk of 2012, earthquakes, the economy, the oil spill in the gulf just to mention a few) that are showing up as a result of this shifting is sparking fear in us.
Do you believe in magic? “…In a young girl’s heart, how the music can free her whenever it starts?” as the song by the Lovin’ Spoonful goes. I do! I believe there is magic and mystery all around us. Some say coincidence. I say magic. That belief keeps me young and expecting great things for myself and for everyone else.

One of the most difficult things to overcome is mind-chatter. This is when the mind grabs onto an event like a football and starts running with it, chattering on and on about what did happen, what didnât happen or why it happened. Have you noticed, the chatter is always either about the past or the future? Mind-chatter is very destructive. It causes the adrenal glands to release excess cortisone into the nervous system, which stresses the organs and glands.nnHoâOponopono

Hearing The Voice Of God When you are following your heart and listening to the guidance you receive from (God, The Universe, The Divine, Source Energy) you begin to make decisions based on that guidance. I began hearing the voice of God at the age of 21. The problem was when I was younger I was in such fear I shut God out. I prayed, but I did not want to hear God speak to me, it was just too scary. My version of God way back then was of an angry vengeful God. This is not true. My personal experience is the opposite.

Rin Tin Tin wasn't the only German Shepherd on the scree “back in the day,” nor was Hollywood the only source of drama, pathos and heroism on four paws. In the late 1950s a black and white film made in Canada that was about the travels of a remarkable German Shepherd Dog who eschewed the comforts of a comfortable, secure home to travel wherever fate led him, assisting those in need, introduced a big, wooly Shepherd dog named London as The Littlest Hobo.

Perhaps you’ll agree that when something is bothering you, it prevents you from being at peace. In truth, the more we try to figure out “what-to-do” or “what-not-to-do” actually keeps the situation from changing. Take a moment and look at this consideration more carefully. Whatever we are focused on, is what we are creating for ourselves. So the more we dislike someone or something, is causing us to actually attract more of those unwanted situations into our life.

Have you ever stood at the lecte or were sitting for an interview and when you opened your mouth to speak, the sound emanating from your lips was much higher in pitch than you expected, wanted, or appreciated? While the raising of the pitch of the voice is common when nervous, it is also something that can happen in normal conversation. Just getting excited can take some voices up several steps and for many people it is more than disconcerting. It can be embarrassing and humiliating.
