Manifest. Abundance. Meditation

 Manifesting. Abundance and Meditation

As we go through our busy days, how do we ever get back to our creative self? With a minefield of chores to do in a day, how do we ever how time to relax, really relax.

Year after year of working hard, we tend to run on automatic pilot like a hamster on a hamsters wheel, when do we have time to stop?

And if we don't stop and recalibrate and rest, how do we expect our bodies to keep going?

Our bodies keep count of how we thrash them, use them, over work them, ignore the signals to stop and rest.  Our body gets tired and then starts to create illness.  The patterns continue and then we can get used to living in dis-ease. 

All the while our bodies and mind are simply needing a rest.

Meditation is a way to allow your body to rest. People often say to me 

*I don't have time for that, if your health packs up the first thing you make is time to fix the problem, we can be pro-active.

*I cant relax, I need to be doing something, that through process is worth digging deep into the patterns around that, being busy all the time is often a trauma response, don't stop and think it wont hurt.

*when I try to meditate my mind wanders, it is like anything you practice until you master the skill.

When we allow ourselves to go into a meditative state, our body can truly rest, our mind can truly rest, our heart rate will come down, our blood pressure can regulate.

But mostly this is where your creative self can come out. It is where thoughts and feelings can flash past you, when your mind and body are quite, you can often find solutions to problems, you can generate options to things happening in your life, you can get clarity. You see glimpses of your dreams and goals and even figure ways to get to them, flashes of what you need to do.

Some times people say to me that they are not into the woo woo stuff, then happily go to the doctor to get medications for anxiety and depression, where if we start listening to our mind and body earlier, and their urgent signals for us to rest, we might be able to avoid some of that.

When our health fails, we have to make time and put up with whatever that brings us.  If we can figure a way to honour our body and mind and let them rest, we might head of problems before they start.

Manifest. Abundance. Connection

 Manifesting. Abundance. Connections. One thing all of us need is connections. We need connections to feel safe, to grow, to love  and to feel connected to someone or something else. One of my beliefs is that if we can always give someone 5 minutes of your time. In that 5 minutes of genuinely giving someone your time and attention, connections can be made.  The secret to this strategy is to have good boundaries so that you don't become the person who has to listen to everyone's story over and over and it become draining on yourself.  Most people wouldn't be able to tell you the last time someone took a straight 5 minutes to listen and communicate without other distraction. Yet this form of communication is the most important. In that 5 minutes you could have unknowingly been someone's light house, someone could have been having the worst day ever, and your kindness of just listening, talking and being there 100% just for 5 minutes can change the protectory of their day,

Special Needs Children - Angels that walk the Earth

Over the years I have had a fair bit to do with children with special needs and their parents. The sheer love and determination from parents of special needs children, shines though, and parents learn ways to manage different problems they have to overcome. Years ago as a teenager I used to visit a friends brother in a residential care home for children. My first visit left me feeling sad and overwhelmed. Being a teenager and really thinking mostly about myself, I felt I had enough issues in my own life to deal with, growing up seemed hard enough at the time. So I choose not to go back and visit again.  Something inside me keep bugging me and months later I returned to the home and my visits become weekly Friday night visits.  My love for these children grew and grew to the point I gave up Happy Hour at work. Remember I was a teenager, happy hour in the middle of town on a Friday night was a ton of fun.  Something inside me gave my night away in order to visit my friends at the h

Welcome to 2015, Let us make it the best year yet.

Happy New Year to you all.  It is hard to believe how quickly the days, months and years roll by.  How was 2014 for you? Hopefully it was a good year for you.  What would you like 2015 to hold?   We all have goals and dreams, some we achieve and some we just don't. Sometimes we can get caught up in the thought the dreams are for others. I truly believe that if someone out there is doing what I want to do, then why can't I.  Often what stops us are our self limiting beliefs.  Sometimes we can hold a fear of failure, so it is easier not to try because we might fail, and who wants to fail.  Let us change our meaning of failure, failure is merely feedback.  Every time something doesn't work out the way we think, we learn not to do it that way, so we try another way.  Failure can be very useful and maybe try changing the wording to feedback. I believe Success is a Birth Right. Every one has a right to be successful. Success is a personal journey, so the meaning of succe
