The United States has already slipped into such a deep recession that it could be the most serious since World War II, said Martin Feldstein, President of the Cambridge group, who is considered the official word on economic cycles. If we continue with current trends what can we expect?

What are you doing when you watch the news???

Growing flowers from seed is a LOT of work. Not physical work exactly, but more of a discipline. One must care for the seeds, making sure they get water on a regular basis and that weeds don't take over. If you aren't invested in the flowers growing, if you don't believe that they will actually bloom into gorgeous specimens, you are less likely to remember to take care of them. Not believing they will bloom leads to not taking care of them, which leads to them not blooming -

Thanks to modern technology and the Internet, you’ll find an abundance of spiritual information online when you seek answers to your spiritual questions. Unfortunately, so much of it is spiritual advice you should ignore. Throughout over 30 years of extensive metaphysical and spiritual exploration, we’ve never adhered to only one system, religion, or outlook. Instead, we use intuition, reason, common sense, and long-term observation to discover what works. Below is some of the spiritual advice we’ve found that is best ignored since it’s unhelpful or even dangerous.

Sex can be spiritual, though it’s all too common to forget and feel guilty about sex, and much of the guilt is hidden in your subconscious mind.

Numerous self-proclaimed spiritual groups are targeting the President of the United States with black magic. This suggests significant parts of the metaphysical community either lack understanding of the law of karma, or don’t care about the consequences. Will they ever learn? Anyone who actively intends harm on another individual is evil, not spiritual, no matter how they justify it.

The theory of reinca ation suggests your past life actions create your present love life situations, both the good and the bad. People who don’t like their love lives now might be making up for their actions in the distant past, but not always. Sometimes, even the best intentions in past lives can result in unfortunate experiences in future lives. This is part of soul growth. Likewise, people with a rewarding love life today may have earned it in past lives. Below are examples of past life suffering that led to happy love lives. Love Isn’t Ownership

I used to be caught in indecision about nearly everything in my life. I even had a poster in my dorm room in college that was a quote from Harvard professor Harvey Cox: "Not to decide is to decide.” I put it up as kind of a joke about how indecisive I was and my boyfriend at the time (now my husband) just rolled this eyes.

A friend recently told us that he is waking up to the fact that what you think you deserve may not be what you merit, and that it's a hard lesson to learn. Although he's considered successful by almost everyone in his professional and personal life, it was instilled in him early on in his life, and during school, that he deserved the very best. The sky was the limit and he believed it.

Let me tell you a true story. A couple of years ago I was teaching Ho'oponopono in Chile.

“Energy is the currency of the universe. When you ‘pay’ attention to something, you buy that experience. So when you allow your consciousness to focus on someone or something that annoys you, you feed it your energy and it reciprocates the experience of being annoyed. Be selective in your focus because your attention feeds the energy of it and keeps it alive. Not just within you, but in the collective consciousness as well.” ~ Emily Maroutian I love this quote from Emily Maroutian because it’s so clear on how the law of attraction works. Energy flows where attention goes.

The first step in creating any positive change in your life is to find out what you want – that may seem obvious. And you may know exactly what you want right now. There may be a dream you've held for years but never acted on, or a project that's bursting to express itself through you. But many people are aware of wanting change, yet are not sure what kind of change or where to start. If this is you - or even if you're one of the sure ones – it can be useful to begin by exploring what you don't like in your life.

One sure way to generate controversy is to bring up the topic of reinca ation in a group conversation. In our experience, in the Western world, about 30% will say they believe in it, 40% will express mild skepticism, and 30% will vehemently speak out against it. Elsewhere in the world, believers are a significantly higher percentage, as the majority of the world embraces the concept of reinca ation in some form or another. They, like us, believe the soul is ete al and “the other side” exists, where souls go after physically inca ating.

Authenticity is one of the greatest gifts you can bring as a conscious leader. By nature I tend to be the person who would rather listen and observe everything around me than be the center of attention. Work is play for me. My mind sees so many possibilities, that it’s hard to turn it off. It’s hard for me NOT to talk about work related topics and I’m not great at small talk. I’d prefer to use the discussion to create or discover something new. Busy Minds

The fate vs. free will argument has been around for eons. We believe you have free will to make the most of your fate and even shape it, but not how you may think. The motivational and self-help marketplace is full of well-intentioned professionals promising to make you the captain of your destiny. You can do anything you put your mind to, anything, they say. All you have to do is work hard, believe in yourself, and follow their advice. We’re all for inspiration, but we like it to be rooted in reality.

1. What Can You Offer? We all have our own pain and challenges. This sometimes places us in a position where we feel like we have nothing left to give…Connect to your Soul Language Team (if you don’t know your Soul Languages yet, ask Divine Intelligence to make that connection for you at this time, until you have a conscious knowledge of your Soul Team) and ask your Soul to show you the size of your spirit and light…Then prepare to be amazed! 2.

If you want to discover your life purpose, all you have to do is follow the trail of breadcrumbs. Only in real-life, the breadcrumbs would represent your desires. You know you are on the right track when you feel the tingle, that sensation that motivates you to do and explore more. You are discovering your life’s purpose when you feel that certain spark towards something or someone. All these feelings stem from your soul trying to evolve. We all come here to earth to serve a

I woke up late last night to a thud. Then another, and another, and…a foot step? In less than an instant, I was in terror. Here I was in the middle of the woods, alone. Now, mind you, I was in one of the loveliest, straight-out-of-Architectural-Digest homes that my friend, Elizabeth, so graciously allowed me to stay in, and yet I was alone, surrounded by empty vacation homes, trees, foreign noises and wall-to-wall sliding glass doors. By day, it is the most gorgeous place eve

Countless individuals have experienced the three stages of seeking true love. First, the person seeking true love looks for it everywhere, as if it will magically appear and elevate him to a blissful state of being, and sometimes projects what they want onto people who are not compatible. This type of true love seeking almost always ends in disappointment. It's like trying to find an oasis in the desert.

1. Stop Pushing Yourself I realized this week how hard I push myself. Packing boxes for my move when I have a fever, not a good idea and not very loving for myself. How hard are you pushing yourself? Are you the type that has to send one last email before lunch or is working at 10 pm at night? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, STOP and ask yourself if this behavior is showing yourself love. 2. What’s Love Got To Do With It?

Are you ready to really understand something big? Ready -- everything in our world is a reflection of a part of us. This is why I take resistance so personally.

So for a better life for myself and to help other individuals in a deeper way, I get to work the resistance. Here are some of my ahhs:

Once you understand the truth about reinca ation, after sifting through the myths and misunderstandings, you’ll be surprised how the awareness can improve your quality of life.

In order to create positive change in your life, you must first identify your vision. Make sure it is something that excites and inspires you, that really lights you up. It should be something you can get behind 100% because only then will it be sufficiently motivating to sustain you as you stretch beyond your comfort zone – and that will be required. Unless it meets these criteria, it will be too easy for you to give up at the first moments of discouragement.

Relatively young Hollywood director Kevin Smith had a brush with death earlier this year; a massive heart attack almost did him in. Fortunately, he’s still with us, and the health crisis puts the spotlight on the notion of prayer. Another Hollywood star, openly Christian Chris Pratt, star of Guardians of the Galaxy, wrote on Twitter, addressing Kevin Smith, “Praying for you. I will continue to. You inspired me with Clerks when I was a senior in HS…” Not surprisingly, Chris Pratt received public criticism after the tweet from those who doubt the power of prayer.

The world is currently experiencing a technology boom and the future looks incredibly exciting. We believe technology and the overall standard of living will be exponentially more advanced, beyond your imagination, in the near future.

When did you first become aware that living fully is the most important thing you could do? Sometimes we only realize that we have not been living fully when we encounter a tragedy, such as the death of a loved one, a car accident or fatal diagnosis. Then we wake up and realize, “What have I been doing with my life?” Well. What have you been doing with it? While living fully is clearly more than words, it does start with the mind, being aware of life, using the mind to disc

How were you taught to create? Do you believe that you are the master creator of your own life? In The Four Agreements, Ruiz talks about dreaming with awareness. I call this creating with focus.
