Some Moments of Flow

2009-10-24T00:29:00.017-05:00

Tonight, I'm trying to meditate, relax, and ultimately heal but I cannot let go of fear. I've tried numerous times and it comes back and back... Ok, so if i cant let go of it, whats the next step up from it? I remember Esther Hicksdescribing how Abraham's got emotions listed on a scale. If i cant seem to relax and enjoy myself, there's a world of emotions I can choose that's healthier than fear. Obviously since fear is at the bottom of the list.

The meditation playlist was just not cutting it, so I switched over to the Sonia Seminar. A few things she says seems a little flaky to me, but most of the time, she really hits it on the head. This particular video has the 4 minute exercise, "if i weren't afraid i would..." Seems appropriate enough for the moment and I filled in the blank rather nicely. Fly on an airplane. Sell my paintings online. Drive to the city on the highway, a LOT! Sing out loud, with my terrible voice cuz nobody really cares... but eventually a thought steered me back into problems and I imagine all the things I wouldn't do now that I know better. And then I wonder, if to really go back, would I lose out on the good things from the process?

It finally occurs to me that I get to KEEP the good things. That's my gift for going through the experience. If I want to go back and release the negativity and damage, I can... but I can also keep the good. I dont have to forget... or go back... or call a do over. Just go from here. I do believe that would be letting go of blame - begin forgiveness. And maybe, just as well, that's what here is. WOULD I have done it differently? Yes, yes and yes. Why? Because I'm a good person, caring and thoughtful of others and myself. Worthy, Wiser. So I'll end with a quote that I found on a therapists website...

"Sometimes we fall asleep, get lost or forget that
we are such splendid, forgivable, adorable souls.

We step into lives that aren't ours, make choices that aren't nourishing, or dance stiffly for years with the wrong partner or parts of ourselves." --By Sark

Update: Sonia Choquette will be speaking at this years
I CAN DO IT! Conference

This one's worth watching...

I'm coming back to Sonia Choquette because I've been pulling from her 'trust your vibes' deck. ok so they're just cards, but they've been giving me freakishly good advice this week.

#25 It's not Personal
To build up further immunity against negative vibrations and psychic attack, and elevate the degree of good vibrations coursing through your life, take nothing you encounter personally. As tempting as it may be to interpret negative behavior projected toward you as personal, it isn't. In fact, what other people feel or do has nothing to do with you: It's a reflection of their consciousness, not yours. By choosing not to do this, you stay tuned in to what's true and important for you. Being impersonal doesn't mean that you're being unloving or unking; it actually allows you to be more loving and tolerant toward those acting out because you're not engaged in defending yourself against psychic attack. It takes you to higher ground, and is a powerful form of psychic protection, causing everything unpleasant to slide away rather than stick to your aura and ruin your good vibes. So remember, no matter how passionately you feel like defending yourself, let it go. Relax and focus on your good vibes.

I understood the meaning. The words jumbled and became so abstract, but i knew the truth of it. Now as i go back I pay such attention to each one, because it seems like the truest answer to approaching my life as it is today.

i made a playlist to share from the youtube channel choquette 1

Positive Attitude Improves Health

2007-02-09T09:27:00.006-06:00

Positive thoughts create positive experiences. Thats the idea right? good health, abundance, love, enjoyment, freedom or whatever we want. Most of the time its more of a faith thing. Sometimes science catches up and proves what we've been wondering. the Movie "What the Bleep" and its offshoot, "the Secret" delve into scientific proof a further. Here's a great article from an excellent website about mind over matter.

from everydayhealth.com:
A Positive Attitude Can Improve Your Health
Scientists are discovering that qualities like optimism and humor not only make you more popular among your peers, they also make you healthier...

The Role Of Positive Psychology
"Positive psychology is an emerging field recognized by the American Psychological Association... It focuses on determining and promoting the factors that permit people to thrive. Rather than search for the roots of unhappiness, research coming out of this field investigates the ingredients of a good life and weighs the effects of traits like optimism, humor, and even eccentricity.

Optimists, for example, tend to do better than pessimists when coping with stressful situations. They are more likely to put a positive spin on stressors, look for ways to make the best of a bad situation, and use problem-solving strategies to tackle difficulties. Some studies indicate that optimists often fare better physically, too." read the rest on everydayhealth.com >>

"Thank you for my healing"

2007-02-02T23:58:00.004-06:00

from the DVD "The Secret" A woman was diagnosed with breast cancer. (Cathy Goodman)

She ABSOLUTELY BELIEVED that she was already healed. All day long she would say "Thank you For My healing". She saw herself as if the disease was never in her body. She would also watch funny movies and laugh all day. She removed the stress from the situation. It took her 3 months to heal herself of cancer, without radiation and chemotherapy.

The premise here being: Disease cannot live in a body with a healthy emotional state.

I began doing this: When I worry, many times a day, about my physical and mental state of health, I replace it with the one phrase… “thank you for my healing” I felt it a few times, but mostly redirected my thought to another one. Gratitude.

Next step. See yourself as perfection. Never having any type of illness, mental or physical.

Hilarious Prank Photographs

2007-02-02T22:57:00.007-06:00

From the blog of Frank Rodriguez (Chicago Photographer)

On December 23rd, 2005, John and Joan Leising of Buffalo, NY discovered the baby Jesus statue missing from the nativity scene in their front yard. In its place was a note saying that the statue would be returned in three days. Eight months later, the baby Jesus returned to the Leisings with a note and a photo album that told the story of his adventures. The note said "We are simply a group of young adults who wished to show the baby Jesus a better life than he would have seen cooped up in an attic crawl space. He has traveled over counties and states, met people and animals alike. We have done our best to show the baby Jesus the many glorious aspects of our world."

Amazing Photograph

2007-02-02T22:33:00.001-06:00

I was on the celestine prophecy's forum reading a post about seeing energy, and auras. There were a few interesting links about auras, and aura photography. This one was pretty interesting because it worked for me without a photograph. What color is your aura?

This forum thread had raised a question in me. Ive seen aura photographs of individuals. The book (and movie) talk about energy between people and how it pushes back and forth or intertwines, how you can give energy to others even to the world and your surrounding environment...

I had to wonder, has anyone taken aura photos of two people together. Not only two people together but two people in the midst of communication and would it show the changes? Something to ponder. (im asking a few aura photographers if they've ever tried it and will post what I find)

While searching I found something fascinating... In Frank Rodriguez's post, "Do psychic photographers ever take a bad photo?" he shows a photograph he took of a moving walkway (3rd down) At first i didn't see it, then I thought it was a reflection, but there clearly is a very dominant face in this photograph. He couldn't explain it, but wanted to know more. If you can interpret this photograph and how it happened, help him out.

Lazy Man's Guide to Enlightenment
Free ebook by Thaddeus Golas
Review: This short ebook really put me on the right track. The overall writing is not technically easy to understand without previous study, but all in all the concepts are simple. I dont know what studies he has partaken to achieve this knowledge. There are at least two references to drugs. If this bothers you, I would want you to know upfront, but still suggest to consider with an open mind. Since he's not suggesting drug use, I thought it was great. He conceptualizes how energy really works, and tells you how he sees it. Some major themes in this book help you to understand why and how to love yourself more. I dont always remember what he says to do in the face of freakouts, but going back to the book is easy, and easier to understand with each read.

I had a downloaded copy of this book, but its available to read online

Get Your Brain out of the Way

2007-02-01T01:42:00.001-06:00

For so long I pushed and pushed to get somewhere, trying every day never giving up, and equally, not seeing much progress. I've gotten some great advice about this Id like to share.

Take this into consideration, that tomorrow may never be great. KNOW that you 'are' NOW. and accept. Get the going somewhere out of your thoughts and plans and just GO now.

There's no preliminary work to go. There's no training and theres no absolute destination. So what are you working so hard for?

I wondered if that was to let it all fall apart?...

I'm saying to let it all fall into place. Release control and let God do his work. Divine cannot happen if the human mind is in control and gets in the way. Let it go and worry not. Let it happen for you. Try it for a week on the little things and let it show you the changes it can make.

Then as you gain trust and belief, let it start to change the larger things. Let it WOW you, step by step, small to large.

Stay true to how you feel and make decisions accordingly. Let the fear of consequence dissolve and make heartfelt decisions. When you let go of fear you let go of yourself (ego) Being in this calm state youre not fighting God anymore. Its a sign of trust and a signal to move forward.

Making heartfelt spiritual decisions means saying no to what you dont want. This is equivalent to saying yes to what you do want, even if what you do want isn't apparent yet. It's a green light to the universe saying... "YES! Give me what I Want!, what I chose, what Im here for."

Letting Go

2007-02-01T01:36:00.000-06:00

Letting Go
by Karim Hadjee
Creating Power System

How would you like to let go of all those bad memories, past relationships, and negative thoughts that seem to hold you back or prevent you from achieving tremendous success?

Today I'll show you how to do just that so you start enjoy life and achieving your goals.

Let's face it, Many of us choose to hang on to things that at some point have hurt us, angered us, made us feel sad, or depressed us. Now - we can let go of these feelings and emotions that don't really help us move forward or we can hang on to them, which will eventually cripple us - because by hanging on to them we don't allow ourselves to move forward, grow and achieve wonderful things. And it gets worse - by hanging on to the past we can even destroy our bodies from the inside out. Some of you may have already heard about the incredible power of letting go - and how it can really change or significantly improve your life. But no one really tells you how to let go and move forward. Sure it's easy to say: "Just let go - move forward – forget about it - just let go." Let's face it - that's easier said than done. Today I'm going to outline how you can really let go of unwanted events, emotions and situations, past or present - so that you start living the life you want and begin moving forward. I'll also show you that by not letting go - by holding on to something - you can seriously impact your health, life and fortune. Once you understand this you'll want to let go and begin moving forward right away. So read on and enjoy!

Why You Need to Let Go and Move Forward.
We all go through positive and negative experiences during our lives. Unfortunately, most of us hang on to or constantly recall the unpleasant or negative situations - some of which go back years or even all the way back to childhood. Other unpleasant or negative experiences may have happened yesterday or 6 months ago. Something someone did may have angered you, caused you to build up resentment, seek revenge, etc. When we hold on to these negative experiences we actually block our ability to move forward.When you hang on to a negative or unpleasant experience - when you don't let go of it - then you are naturally thinking about it constantly - it is something that is regularly on your mind.When you constantly think about that negative event or negative situation you prevent yourself from moving forward and healing.I'm not talking about memories - we all have memories. But how many memories do you recall regularly? How many pleasant memories do you recall everyday? Chances are you're like most people and you have a number of unpleasant experiences that you're holding on to, and that prevents you from moving forward. These negative experiences can be a traumatic event that took place during your childhood or a fight you had with a friend which resulted in a grudge that you carry - and because of that grudge you no longer speak to each other. These are the kinds of things many people carry - the more you carry the worse life gets - it's that simple. Why? Because you've filled your mind up with negative experiences - because you continually hang on to something that doesn't allow you to move forward you're carrying useless baggage that's really slowing you down.

Think of it this way - you're on a hiking trip and along the way you keep picking up heavy objects, things that really don't serve you - but you want to hang on to. After a while - these objects begin to weigh on you - they slow you down and unless you get rid of them - you'll never get to where you want to go.You can begin to let go by simply getting your mind to focus on something different. It's not about saying: I let go of the pain from my fight with ---- and move on. That will help - but if you really want to start moving on - then you have to get your mind to focus on new things - in the process you automatically let go of the negative events and situations that have been slowing you down.Start focusing on what you want to happen. Let go of the past and and negative situations by getting your mind to focus on different things. Direct your subconscious mind to help you let go by giving it new instructions.

How Not Letting Go Can Ruin Your Health
Today, researchers are looking into how holding on to negative feelings and emotions impacts the nervous system and human cells. They believe that if you hold on to negative feelings and sad emotions or depressing memories there's a chance that you could reshape the human cell - to the point where your thoughts of the past have a negative impact on your cells and your physical health.Hanging on to negative past events can destroy your life in ways you're not even aware of. Sure there have been negative things that have happened - I'm not asking you to ignore them - acknowledge them - they did happen. But ask yourself these questions: Do they serve you any purpose? Do they help you move forward? Do they work in your favor in any way? If you said no to any or all of the above questions then tell yourself this: This emotion/feeling doesn't help me so I'm letting it go and focusing on what is important. Then begin focusing on what you want next - focus on what is important and what can improve your life. When you do what I just outlined you get your mind moving in a new direction. At the same time you stop building negative energy that you created from the negative events/emotions - that negative energy only attracted more negative situations.When you begin focusing on more positive things and focus on what you want you begin shifting that energy and start attracting positive situations to help you create the life you want.The next step is to create a new action plan - let's face it the past is over - so what next? Where do you want to go now? How do you plan to get there?You may not have the answers to all these questions - but merely thinking about the options and the future - forces your mind to go in a new direction. When you do this - you automatically let go of unwanted feelings and emotions.For example: Let's say you have a fight with a friend - and you're angry - what now? What do you want to happen next? Carrying that anger and resentment no longer helps you and doesn't serve any positive purpose - so you choose to let go of it. But what about your relationship with your friend - do you want to continue with it? Do you want to improve it? Do you want to set the record straight? Do you want to move on and forget about it? Holding a grudge is not an option. Trying to make that persons life miserable is not an option. Trying to get revenge is not an option. Why not? Because those actions are driven by emotions - which you just chose to let go of - so what's next in the relationship? When you make that decision - you've already let go and begun moving forward.If you had a traumatic experience as a child and continually re-live that experience then choose to let go of it. Then ask yourself - what now? What next? Do you want to focus onyour life now - and if so what aspects? When you do this you've moved the mind away from the past, you've let go of unwanted emotions/feelings and you're taking the next step - which is moving forward.Your success will depend on how you train your mind and subconscious mind to focus on what you want. Start moving forward by choosing to let go of unwanted and negative situations or events that you remember. Start moving in a new direction by focusing on what you want.

Live In The Present
The final step is to live in the present moment - that is to start living in the now. Some of you may have heard of this before - but living in the now is different than living for the moment. Living in the now is the process of enjoying everything that is going on at this present moment. It means creating your future in the present moment - while still enjoying everything that is happening. Take a look around you and appreciate those things that you once thought were trivial.Take some extra time to enjoy a few moments of the day - doing something completely different - but really putting all of yourself into it. When you are here now - you can be nowhere else. You are not hanging on to something - you are not holding on to a past event you are here now.I know some of you may say the following: "But Karim, where I am right now really sucks - I don't want to think about it." Where you are now is unpleasant because you're looking at all the negative things going on. Focus on a few of the positive things - anything from nature to the wonderful family you may have. This forces your mind to look at things differently - and tells your subconscious mind that you're ready for new possibilities.Start living in the present moment. Begin appreciating all of the things that are positive in your life. Force yourself to focus on the positive aspects of your life. Choose to let go of the negative events that are holding you back. Gets your subconscious mind working for you by giving it a positive direction.

How You Can Let Go
If you're still trying to figure out whether you're holding on to something that's not helping you then do the following: Take note of your thoughts, what are you thinking about regularly? Do these thoughts help you? Are you hanging on to something that no longer serves you? Can you focus on something more positive and productive? If so what? Keep a list and see what you come up with. Then change your thoughts when you think about the negative past. Track your thoughts. Change thoughts that don't work for you. Eliminate thoughts that focus on the past. Begin letting go by pushing your mind and subconscious mind in a new direction.

Thought and Momentum

2007-01-31T01:44:00.001-06:00

Spiritual Healing takes a certain amount/type of energy. Build energy, build momentum, build motion/movement… That movement brings all senses higher. Higher vibration means faster movement.

But sometimes people tend to carry the weight of their daily routine. It is fast paced, but it’s heavy – not light. It’s not freeing. If you’ve set your life up to experience freedom and comfort, but you worry, worrying ruins the experience. It makes sense. Worry is like a prison. This worry is a common game that many play to subterfuge themselves into submission. When what they want is freedom, they get the opposite. They’ve jailed themselves, boxed themselves in with the idea of personal freedom.

But this freedom comes from the experience of feeling yourself, not from the situations that you’ve created. This is the closest you can manifest into your life that looks like what you want. Its not making you happy because you have expectations. Take a closer look at your ROUTINE, and uncover what feelings you’re trying to hide.

What does the lifestyle you’ve created save you from? Commitment? Having to do things for others? Having to commute? Think of why you choose to avoid this… Do you not like to be told what to do? Are you a little on the lazy side? Ask yourself, are you happy with how you FEEL? And explain the reasons why or why not.

So now that you have made it clear to yourself that you need to change, or what area you need to change to make you happier… What can you bring into your life and/or take out of your life that will bring you happiness. Try a few different things…

If you’re saying, I wont let myself be happy, or do anything until I am “successful” “lose weight” “get that guy/girl”… How can you be successful, lose weight, get that guy/girl if you aren’t happy? As you see, its detrimental to think in such a way. Spiritually, you need to fulfill yourself, in some ways, and not wait for life to be perfect.

GRATITUDE> youve heard it before. It REALLY does help to be happy with what you have. Go through it, I have a good family, a great job, I have money, I am in good health. Whatever it is that you do have, that you may be overlooking. Gratitude is one of the top spiritual concepts toward enlightenment, and evolving to higher realms. Think of the things you have, until you really feel it, until you’re smiling... I don’t like to fake this exercise. I like to feel the real happiness that comes from what I do have. I just think of different things, even the smallest things until I actually feel uplifted.

Choosing Your Own Greatness

2007-01-31T01:15:00.000-06:00

Audio by Dr. Wayne Dyer

When your purpose becomes spiritually aligned with what you are doing, when you live every day exactly the same as what you believe you are here for, suddenly your soul purpose begins to flow, and nothing can stop you. You’re on the fast track. When you live it, it starts to own you...

FORGIVING – Dr. Wayne Dyer likes to separate this word, to give it a more meaningful understanding, he calls it FOR GIVING. This can be done privately. You start to forgive and let this out, no one has to know, you don’t need to tell anyone. This releases the animosity, pain, bitterness, resentment and anger. Toxic reactions to your anger stays until you forgive. When you forgive, you're not only helping others, It releases you. You’re purifying yourself… Love is for-giving. (for giving, you don’t ask anything back) Your whole life becomes clear, and where you’re going becomes evident, because you are completely at peace. Without those experiences, our opportunity to help others won’t materialize.

* Whatever you’ve got inside of you is NOT the result of what anyone else puts there, it’s the result of what you decide to have inside of you…think for a minute…

I love the metaphor Dr. Wayne Dyer gives in this audio. When you squeeze an orange, what comes out? … Juice. When you squeeze an orange, whatever is inside, comes out. It doesn’t matter when, who or how you squeeze it, juice comes out. When you put pressure on a person, whatever is inside, comes out…and anger and hatred comes out, its not the person who’s doing the squeezing that makes that come out… its because that’s what’s inside that person… and when someone cuts you off on the freeway and you get mad as hell and you’re going to get in front of them and cut them off and make them see what its like, it isn’t because they cut you off that you're so upset, its because that’s what you carry around inside. When you stop carrying that around inside, nothing that ANYONE does can upset you. “No one can make a fool of you without your consent” Eleanor Roosevelt. No one can depress you, make you anxious, or hurt your feelings, no one can make you anything other than what you allow inside. Each person must take total responsibility for his own inner development.

Whatever is happening in your life, look at yourself first and say what is it about ME, and what can I change to help me not feel victimized? Not how can I get THEM to change, how can I make the world different. People want the world to be different. Dyer thinks that the world is perfect, contrary to anything you’ve heard, the world is perfect. There’s only anxious, angry thinking, fearful thoughts. Replace that with serenity, you don’t even know how to be victimized anymore. You become healing instead of poisoned. You are effective rather than trying to get there, you live it. When you get enough grace, feel positive about yourself, its almost impossible for you to be controlled and manipulated by anyone else.

When you’re more preoccupied with the solution than being a victim, you’re more effective. No matter what is happening around you, you can get what you need to get done.

The Power of a Simple "No"

2007-01-31T00:40:00.000-06:00

Some things are harder to change than others. Digging deeply inside for the cause may help, but sometimes it eludes us. This is an introduction for using one simple word to regain your power, but I have an idea for you to take into consideration first.

In representation of this choice I would like to refer to the idea of 'conjunction'. At one with one and all. You're definitely one with all, this has always been the teaching of religion and spiritual leaders. To express this and live it out, find association with things you see and hear and let it become part of you. All of it, the good and the bad, embrace it all. That is God.

To accept this, find also within you your tendency to run from negative. This must be experienced too... BUT! The more you are accepting of the little negatives, the less you have to deal with the big negatives.

This doesn't mean take everyones crap. We've all been bullied at one time or another. We all believe there are things we must do that others tell us to, in order to survive. But, You can hold boundaries and still accept all of life.

Say No. NO NO NO. Feel free to say it over and over and embrace the power of you having the right to say no. That's part of your humanity as well. It is not immaturity, it is power.

Within this, you can equalize negativity so that it is comfortable and doesn't scare or repel you. Running away, putting it off, letting it slide, grumbling through it and generally avoiding negativity is a hurdle to overcome. We've been taught negativity is bad. One of the first things we've learned as children is that 'no' means bad.

Use your power of saying 'No' for a while and feel your power to refuse. Let yourself feel comfortable in it. No need to look for excuses. It's not your job to make everyone happy. The answer can simply be 'No, I will not, I choose not' You don't even have to have a reason. This is your right and your power. And it feels so much better to not be strapped into something you didn't want to do in the first place.

ONCE No becomes easy, then Yes becomes easier. And you come fully to embrace the 'yes' too, happy to make the decision. Happy you said yes and happy to experience it.

Start using this simple power. Don't think about the consequences. Don't let "what will happen if" scare you. Do what you feel and do it now. Say no if its no what you mean, for everything. THIS is your true power and the more you practice, the more power you will have. You just say no and that is that.

If it's an unending struggle for you to choose what you wish for, it may be because ultimately that answer, that decision may mean some kind of significant change to you. Embrace that change as well! Let things change. If change comes from the choices you make that stay true to yourself, your life will go more your way, and less everyone elses way.

Your Ideas Can Set you free

2007-01-31T00:28:00.000-06:00

I was once told "To deny yourself of any thought or idea that you may have is an injustice to yourself. Whatever idea you have, work it out and try it. And LIVE. Not to do this is taking away from your experience of life. When you make excuses, i dont have the time for that, its just silly, it doesn't seem like something I would do, ignore them and just give it a try.

Staying Positive

2007-01-27T17:54:00.002-06:00

From 'The Celestine Vision',by James Redfield (pg 136)

Interpretation of Perceived Negativity
The actual word from this entry that switched the light bulb on was 'interpretation'. I guess no one is beyond negativity, even through the most guided of projects...

"I can’t overemphasize the importance of keeping a positive outlook as our experiences of synchronicity increase. Once we have opened to the divine energy within and found a truth that inspires us, and kept our questions in mind, the flow of synchronicity accelerates and becomes easier to interpret. But at any point we can shift into a negative interpretation and lose our energy...

Many times as I worked on the Celestine Prophecy, I had found myself in what could only be called a dead end. I had been in the flow of synchronicity that was rich and meaningful, and then – boom – something would happen that suggested to me that I had been on the wrong path all along. As such times, I was tempted to abandon the project completely. I couldn’t understand why what I thought I was supposed to be doing had fallen apart.

These dead ends continued to occur until I realized that I was jumping into negative conclusions just because I didn’t want the project to be slowed down. Each of us has to realize, on our own, that at our higher level of awareness there are no negative events. Certainly life can be tragic at times… but each crisis, each dead end in our evolution, is merely a message, an opportunity to go in a different direction. Our egos might not like the direction at first, but our higher self can discover a new plan implicit in the challenge.

The importance of looking for the positive meaning in negative events cannot be overstated. Many times I have seen individuals begin the synchronistic path, successfully entering their journey into self-awareness and growth, only to encounter a dead end that they interpret negatively, causing them to give up on the whole process.

This occurs when we assume we can reach our most far-reaching goals and images very quickly. If we do not achieve these goals according to our timetable, we assume the negative and either blame ourselves or others in some way, or think that the whole process is invalid. In truth, a dead end usually points out that we are still short of energy or have not fully cleared our control drama ( how we manipulate others to gain energy). The synchronicity in our lives works to help us return to the issues of personal clearing and the need to discover a file posture of love and inner security. Only by retrieving this transcendent space can we be free of ego needs and proceed to an objective reading of the coincidences."

Watch Your Eyes

2007-01-27T17:47:00.005-06:00

From 'The Celestine Vision',by James Redfield (pg 136)

This is a great excerpt and also a concept from the book The Celestine Prophecy. The book explains that if you make eye contact with a person, that you should speak with them, you probably have a message to share with each other, along the your path...

"Sometimes we will notice that our eyes spontaneously fall on a particular person, place or object… (a path through a forest, particular magazine or book)

Spontaneously turning around and catching someone looking at us is a common example of this experience. In any of these cases, we may ask [why did that happen]…

While these messages from our bodies at first seem capricious, sometimes we will have an intuition to explore further. Often, just a few minutes of attentive action will lead to a new adventure or synchronistic encounter."

Creating Your Day

2007-01-26T19:11:00.000-06:00

This was such a good part of the Movie "What the Bleep Do We Know" It was short cuts of interview with Dr. Joe Dispenza (whos book is finally coming out!)

I hadnt been able to read anything from Dr. Dispenza, because at the time, his book hadnt been released yet. You may want to check his website, to see if there are any updates to his work. Dr. Joe Dispenza truly has a grasp on how the brain works.

Start in the morning, where there are no distractions. Close your eyes.

Ask yourself – Who am I going to be this Day? Begin to answer this inquiry with the most elevated idea of yourself. What is the greatest potential of who and what I am going to be this day?

See the day in your mind how you would like it to unfold. Put yourself into the reality of those scenes.

Mentally rehearse over and over. This activates new brain circuits. Repeat the new activated connections until the change is permanent.

Observe specific circumstances or opportunities that you want to happen as a result of how you are going to be in your created reality. Pick the most suitable that you can accept and see the reality as if it already is.

Observe specific outcomes. Cast the road markers to your new future. Live your life with these ideas in mind and you will run right into them.

Focus totally – send a clear signal to the quantum field by paying complete attention to your ideas.

Keep the same things on your mind ever morning until they manifest. Don’t change your dream before it happens.

For example:
I am filled with vital energy this entire day.
I am radiantly healthy and my body is strong
I am a genius. New ideas come to me naturally.
I live in the present moment.
I am light hearted, free and relaxed.

• I am radiantly healthy and my body is strong and fit.
• I am filled with incredible physical and mental health and well being.
• I am comfortable, relaxed and calm. (stress free)
• I am confident with myself and those I interact with.
• I am a genius. New ideas come to me naturally, and on the spot.
• I am an impressive problem solver.

Say each one three times. Begin to create new ways of thinking by engaging in this concentrated effort repeatedly.

What Is Intuition?

2007-01-26T19:05:00.000-06:00

I'm not sure at my level if its something that I just tap into. I do hear words when I sit down and write. I do not know what or where they come from, if its me or beyond me. Some people call that automatic writing. Whatever it is, its pretty interesting to read what comes out.

I think at a starting off point, it goes hand in hand with what i'm learning about intention.

I think you intend to do something, set a wish, or a desire for something to happen, describe it in such a way that makes you feel good, but not too terribly detailed. In combination with what Esther Hicks says, enough so that you feel good, when the good feeling is gone, you should stop. So set the intention, enough so that it makes you feel good, and let it go. And what comes back to you, in the next few days weeks months, IS intuition.

For me, the best most effective way to set my intentions is to daydream. It happens easiest when im in the shower (what is it about the shower???) I say what I want. I describe what I want. And the feelings and vague images come to me.

When you set these intentions constantly, its as if intuition is flowing from the source. Bursts of insights, but they are really just the answers to your questions. I think im starting to understand this.

Continuously set your intentions, so that you are able to receive intuition. It will be more than apparent, or maybe it will be a little subtle. Or possibly you have forgotten the intention, because you already had let it go, to be answered and fulfilled. But when it comes back to you, that you remember that you intended that thing to happen, its pretty awesome. You can say I did that. I created that.

Money Q&A - Spiritual

2006-11-30T01:43:00.000-06:00

Q: What Do I have to think about money so that it flows naturally and consistently into my life?

A: In reality, money is such a very necessary element, the concept of "let it go and let it flow" is not likely to happen in practice. Simply Letting it flow is a much easier concept to handle...

Wayne Dyer (http://www.waynedyer.com) talks about our “source”. He reminded me of this on his hayhouse radio show. It came back to me as I asked about money. I imagine finding my source and it being like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, like the site of ancient lost treasure. I see it as an overabundance of everything I need personally. A while ago, I intuited to build a bridge to God as a silver chord. I implanted a glowing silver cord into my chest near my heart, and extended it out to connect with god. I imagined love going out to God, as the color silver, and all of his knowledge, protection and loving grace coming back to me as gold through my cord and showering me with blessings. In this experience, I follow this silver cord until it leads me to this source. When I get there, everything I need is there. Bask in the energy and good feeling for a while, until the time comes when I’m ready to leave. But leave empty handed. And imagine that all I need follows me. Its attracted to me, as if a lost puppy were to follow me home. I feel that joy, pick it up and take care of it if I get the notion, but I know its coming with me. Then upon my arrival at home, I imagine it all in its right place. It can play with me at times and we are both joyful, but I also have a place for everything already established.

This energy has a force. Like a life force. In this way I’m coming closer, bonding with the life force of all that I need. I thank God and go back often to “visit him”. When I’m there, I pay attention to the energy there. Feel it and let it flow through, and recreate this energy often. This way I’m connecting to God by remembering and recreating numerous times, not all at once.

Everything of value comes in small increments at first. It wants to know I’m ready. When I’m truly ready, it comes in waves. This is the way to show it that I’m ready, I desire it, I can accept it and know how to bring it without force. Working WITH the energy. Respectful of it, therefore it wants to come. I give it life, personality, love and a bond.
----------
Virtually moments after I wrote this, I noticed a book in my bookshelf that I haven’t gotten to yet. (I have many). “The Energy of Money” by Maria Nemeth. The first page of the introduction makes me think there’s a much more to understand, that this energy is affecting our lives in more areas than just our finances. I’m led to further my quest toward ‘getting’ this concept totally (and promptly teaching my son).

“Whatever is potent for us, whatever elicits strong emotions, whatever seems to “hold on to us” in life has the power to bring forth our greatest strengths and most remarkable qualities. Our relationship with money calls on us to wake up, to see how we are handling all kinds of energy – not only money, but time, physical vitality, enjoyment, creativity, and the support of friends – and to use those lessons to enrich every aspect of our lives.”

This book was built on the premise of group study. I haven’t completed it yet to make a final assessment. I am interested if anyone has, if they would like to form a group to learn the concepts more fully.

Sync on Network TV

2006-11-28T20:59:00.004-06:00

I've noticed a bit of synchronicity between underground spirituality and network television. While listening to Dannion Brinkley as a guest host on John Hollands show on Hay House radio, Dannion says that closure at time of death is as important for the person as it is for those left behind.

A few days ago the show "Ghost Whisperer" premiered on CBS. Jennifer Love Hewitt has the ability to communicate with lost souls. Her job, quickly recognized, is to help people cross over, by bringing them closure. The most striking part of this episode is that her husband is a paramedic, who by the end of the show, is having a hard time with her gift in conjunction with his profession. He says that every time he works to save someones life, he's terrified to lose them because she might have to have to deal with their spirit if he fails. She told him exactly what Dannion said on the radio broadcast, about the mentality at death being important in crossing. Jennifer Love Hewitt explains to her husband that has the unique ability to "take all of your fear away" And if he did lose someone, she believed that he could help them tremendously in making the transition.

I watched the show with my mother, a devout Catholic. I asked her, "do you believe any of this stuff?" She wasn't sure, but she enjoyed the show just the same. I told her about Dannions story, his multiple Near Death Experiences, the blue gray space, and that its an actual story of someone real experience.

It's very cool that this show dealing with these issues is on network television. Its possible that we as a collective are getting somewhere :)

I'd like to repeat Dannions advice from the radio show... Have a spiritual focus and an intent on being happy, and life takes care of itself. He gave 3 small steps to help us through this decision.

1) Have a cause (a service to help someone)
2) Join a Spiritual Group (to give and receive energy of multiple perspectives) and
3) Find what you want to do (writing, art, etc.) and do it. Then watch how the universe responds.

I absolutely love Dannions story. He is a true soldier! The books are fascinating and give amazing insight into how to live on this earth. I believe these are the most meaningful messages we have now. His work in hospice is truly to be respected, and he is also such a joy to listen to on the radio, down to earth, fun, with incredible advice.

2 Crucial Words That Lead to Change

2006-11-26T18:50:00.000-06:00

The Movie ‘the Secret’ was introduced to me by my colleague, who has been growing more interested in the idea of spiritual presence. This movie is so incredibly powerful in helping understand how the law of attraction works. It seems even now to me, after watching this movie, that this is really the only law that matters. I do however get the feeling that if we as a movement master this law, the next law (known/unknown) in our evolution will be revealed to us.

It's So easy, the law of attraction. Its so easy, and that makes me feel gratitude in and of itself, which is so important. Because the most two important words in changing your entire being, changing what you manifest in your life, and changing the world around you are Thank You.

Whenever you worry, or are thinking negative thoughts about something you don’t want, Immediately say thank you about what you do have that will negate this emotion, or shift your mood to the positive… If you don’t feel good, and worry about being sick, say “Thank you for my healing”. You will feel the gratitude as your fear dissipates.

I learned this directly from the movie “the Secret” There is a woman who healed herself of cancer by holding the strong belief that she was already healed. I HAD to pay attention to this woman, because she was diagnosed on my birthday. She had mentioned this day because she wanted to express how little time it took her to heal.

After doing this for a day, I do not worry superstitiously that because she was diagnosed on my birthday, it might be a warning sign. Now I choose to believe that It was to call my attention to her method.

I feel immediate relief when I say thank you for what I have, or what I want.

According to the movie the Secret, this is all you need to do. Cheer yourself up, really. Its kind of funny to say that, all you have to do is to cheer yourself up, but that’s basically what it all boils down to. When you're dwelling on the fact that you are running out of money, or cannot pay bills, say…. Thank you for my abundance, Imagine the type of money you would like to have (thank you for my $, don’t worry about how you will get it, and visualize and feel the feeling of yourself living the lifestyle of having that money.) It all kinda flows naturally after you’ve said thank you.

I think the biggest, but least spoken of method they had discussed in the movie, was reminders. Many of the wonderful stories in the movie included the person providing themselves with a reminder. And there are some very good ones in the movie.

Creating Power by Karim Hajee

Description: We understand that thoughts do create our reality, but unless it is put into practice, not much progress can be made. Creating Power shows you how, and more importantly why it is essential to clear the negative thought patterns in order to change our life. This program gives you very simple EFFECTIVE techniques to eliminate negative thinking and create the life that you dream about. Even though there's much more to it, affirmations are a part of the course. Now, affirmations never worked for me. When I followed Karims step by step instructions, I noticed something peculiar, the affirmations were unraveling my subconscious layers and the real issues started to appear. It helped me understand underlying issues and really how my brain works. I had a number of "ah ha!" moments throughout the course. There are also two bonus CDs for visualization and spotting true intuition.

Review:This is an excellent 4 week study course that you can keep with you for the rest of your life. I went through this course with a voracious appetite. A very powerful system that I could easily afford. And you get 3 months of personal consultation with the Author himself. He truly wants to see you succeed! I saw changes right away. It helped me with my life's purpose and I saw my personal relationships improve very quickly. It really covers everything and can help with all areas of life that need rescue. For this to really be effective, you do need to have a little extra time and be able to do the simple exercises.

Quote from another spiritual seeker studying Karim's course, who I found in a spiritual forum that initially convinced me to buy this course: "When you put this program together with the spiritual concepts you've learned along your path - it's magic!" I can tell you from experience, this is so true.

Hats off to the new pioneers of new thinking.

2006-11-16T19:01:00.000-06:00

I have been interested and studying spiritual advancement for myself for about 10 years. As with anyone who is seeking, I look for spiritual guidance from outside sources. Picking up new information is one of the greatest joys in staying on my spiritual path. A thought or idea that totally wows me and keeps me motivated to continue, is the life’s blood of the search. Hay House has been a pillar of effective teachers for several years. Sonia Choquet, Sylvia Browne, Wayne Dyer, Doreen Virtue. Some of the best we know are supported by, and attainable through this one wonderful publishing company.

Visit them online at http://www.hayhouse.com

As I study, I find that some things just don’t jive. One teacher has an idea about one thing, while another teacher has a differing opinion. As for the real world, this happens all the time. People don't agree on everything. But as I hold so tightly to the information they present, I look to them as messengers, spreading the REAL truth. Their truth is always about God, the Universe, love, and our ability to create good things in our life. It’s straight across the board with new spiritual teachers. So as their messages slightly conflict, it disheartened me at first, but made me understand that not everyone’s truth is always exactly the same, even on a spiritual level. We definitely know this. But their messages are not from our REAL world. Their teachings are guided, coming from angels, spirit guides, ascended masters, and such. So this I will trust to be good. But I wanted what they are saying to be exact truth, in agreement and, what truly is, the absolute truth, about us. I wanted to depend on this absolute. How could someone’s spirit guide tell them that things work differently than someone else’s angel?

I have been working the Creating Power system. (http://www.creatingpower.com) This 4 week course teaches you how and why to completely change your thinking. It teaches the basic principle that your reality is your creation via thought. It shows you how to bring what you have and what you desire into alignment. Broken down to its simplest form, it teaches you how to create.

As I was speaking a manifesting affirmation, I realized something that all made it fall into place. These teachers, are CREATING as well. They have all learned this concept and they are teaching me the concept, as I still continue to learn. We create. We keep learning to create. Let’s say you purchased a course, and it tells you to “love yourself”. So you say, “I love myself”. Now 500 other people purchase that same course this week and say that they love themselves. Now there is 501 times more love in the world. This is their teaching, and their creation. We know our world. There’s war, famine, disease, poverty and crime. When a teacher parlays their belief that "there is only love in the world", and you pick up on it, affirm it with them and pass it along to someone else… Guess what, we're ALL creating love now.

One teacher may teach you a truth as they see it, and maintain that it’s the absolute truth about the universe we live in. While another teacher, says it a little different... but still as an absolute truth. Sometimes it doesn’t fall into place. I wondered how to deal with that. And then I remembered that everyone’s reality is different. This is what they've chosen to create. What they’ve found to be true in their lives, what they’ve been guided to teach, and what’s been proven to them time and time again. Since I’m coming across this path, I listen to their message and pick up on the things that totally catch my attention, the things that sound right to me, right now. The other things, I just let go of, and if it comes back later, I may take more of an interest.

One of the concepts that helps me believe this notion of our differing personal realities, is from the movie “What the Bleep Do We Know” (http://www.whatthebeep.com) It tells us that ALL realities exist simultaneously, until we choose one. We choose one by focusing our attention on it, whether it is intentional or not. This is a basic concept that scientists are learning through quantum physics. The movie also leads you to believe that if someone lives in a totally different reality than you do, their energy vibration will be so different, that we wont even be able to physically see them. I then concluded that these different ideas within our teacher’s belief systems were chosen by the individual teacher and brought to us for our feedback. We pick up on it, continue the belief and pass it along. With ideas such as, there is only love in the world, and total abundance is our birthright, all we have to do is accept it in our lives…. How can we go wrong? It sure beats the reality that our parents’ church created.

As broadcasts such as Hay House Radio (http://www.hayhouseradio.com) spread across the internet like wildfire, More and more people receive it and change their thinking. This could only mean good things for us, our world and our children. The radio show website, (and links out to the author’s websites) have so many great resources for people to study, connect and grow. I have to thank the new pioneers of this age for creating this for us. As they created their own good, they created ours as well, and gave us the tools to create our own the way we desire. As you manifest your creation, keep in mind all of the good things that you're putting out into this world and beyond.

Letting Go

2006-11-02T13:22:00.000-06:00

by Karim Hajee
Creating Power System

How would you like to let go of all those bad memories, past relationships, and negative thoughts that seem to hold you back or prevent you from achieving tremendous success?

Today I'll show you how to do just that so you start enjoy life and achieving your goals.

Let's face it Many of us choose to hang on to things that at some point have hurt us, angered us, made us feel sad, or depressed us. Now - we can let go of these feelings and emotions that don't really help us move forward or we can hang on to them, which will eventually cripple us - because by hanging on to them we don't allow ourselves to move forward, grow and achieve wonderful things. And it gets worse - by hanging on to the past we can even destroy our bodies from the inside out. Some of you may have already heard about the incredible power of letting go - and how it can really change or significantly improve your life. But no one really tells you how to let go and move forward. Sure it's easy to say: "Just let go - move forward – forget about it - just let go." Let's face it - that's easier said than done. Today I'm going to outline how you can really let go of unwanted events, emotions and situations, past or present - so that you start living the life you want and begin moving forward. I'll also show you that by not letting go - by holding on to something - you can seriously impact your health, life and fortune. Once you understand this you'll want to let go and begin moving forward right away. So read on and enjoy!

Why You Need to Let Go and Move Forward.
We all go through positive and negative experiences during our lives. Unfortunately, most of us hang on to or constantly recall the unpleasant or negative situations - some of which go back years or even all the way back to childhood. Other unpleasant or negative experiences may have happened yesterday or 6 months ago. Something someone did may have angered you, caused you to build up resentment, seek revenge, etc. When we hold on to these negative experiences we actually block our ability to move forward.When you hang on to a negative or unpleasant experience - when you don't let go of it - then you are naturally thinking about it constantly - it is something that is regularly on your mind.When you constantly think about that negative event or negative situation you prevent yourself from moving forward and healing.I'm not talking about memories - we all have memories. But how many memories do you recall regularly? How many pleasant memories do you recall everyday? Chances are you're like most people and you have a number of unpleasant experiences that you're holding on to, and that prevents you from moving forward. These negative experiences can be a traumatic event that took place during your childhood or a fight you had with a friend which resulted in a grudge that you carry - and because of that grudge you no longer speak to each other. These are the kinds of things many people carry - the more you carry the worse life gets - it's that simple. Why? Because you've filled your mind up with negative experiences - because you continually hang on to something that doesn't allow you to move forward you're carrying useless baggage that's really slowing you down.

Think of it this way - you're on a hiking trip and along the way you keep picking up heavy objects, things that really don't serve you - but you want to hang on to. After a while - these objects begin to weigh on you - they slow you down and unless you get rid of them - you'll never get to where you want to go.You can begin to let go by simply getting your mind to focus on something different. It's not about saying: I let go of the pain from my fight with ---- and move on. That will help - but if you really want to start moving on - then you have to get your mind to focus on new things - in the process you automatically let go of the negative events and situations that have been slowing you down.Start focusing on what you want to happen. Let go of the past and and negative situations by getting your mind to focus on different things. Direct your subconscious mind to help you let go by giving it new instructions.

How Not Letting Go Can Ruin Your Health
Today, researchers are looking into how holding on to negative feelings and emotions impacts the nervous system and human cells. They believe that if you hold on to negative feelings and sad emotions or depressing memories there's a chance that you could reshape the human cell - to the point where your thoughts of the past have a negative impact on your cells and your physical health.Hanging on to negative past events can destroy your life in ways you're not even aware of. Sure there have been negative things that have happened - I'm not asking you to ignore them - acknowledge them - they did happen. But ask yourself these questions: Do they serve you any purpose? Do they help you move forward? Do they work in your favor in any way? If you said no to any or all of the above questions then tell yourself this: This emotion/feeling doesn't help me so I'm letting it go and focusing on what is important. Then begin focusing on what you want next - focus on what is important and what can improve your life. When you do what I just outlined you get your mind moving in a new direction. At the same time you stop building negative energy that you created from the negative events/emotions - that negative energy only attracted more negative situations.When you begin focusing on more positive things and focus on what you want you begin shifting that energy and start attracting positive situations to help you create the life you want.The next step is to create a new action plan - let's face it the past is over - so what next? Where do you want to go now? How do you plan to get there?You may not have the answers to all these questions - but merely thinking about the options and the future - forces your mind to go in a new direction. When you do this - you automatically let go of unwanted feelings and emotions.For example: Let's say you have a fight with a friend - and you're angry - what now? What do you want to happen next? Carrying that anger and resentment no longer helps you and doesn't serve any positive purpose - so you choose to let go of it. But what about your relationship with your friend - do you want to continue with it? Do you want to improve it? Do you want to set the record straight? Do you want to move on and forget about it? Holding a grudge is not an option. Trying to make that persons life miserable is not an option. Trying to get revenge is not an option. Why not? Because those actions are driven by emotions - which you just chose to let go of - so what's next in the relationship? When you make that decision - you've already let go and begun moving forward.If you had a traumatic experience as a child and continually re-live that experience then choose to let go of it. Then ask yourself - what now? What next? Do you want to focus onyour life now - and if so what aspects? When you do this you've moved the mind away from the past, you've let go of unwanted emotions/feelings and you're taking the next step - which is moving forward.Your success will depend on how you train your mind and subconscious mind to focus on what you want. Start moving forward by choosing to let go of unwanted and negative situations or events that you remember. Start moving in a new direction by focusing on what you want.

Live In The Present
The final step is to live in the present moment - that is to start living in the now. Some of you may have heard of this before - but living in the now is different than living for the moment. Living in the now is the process of enjoying everything that is going on at this present moment. It means creating your future in the present moment - while still enjoying everything that is happening. Take a look around you and appreciate those things that you once thought were trivial.Take some extra time to enjoy a few moments of the day - doing something completely different - but really putting all of yourself into it. When you are here now - you can be nowhere else. You are not hanging on to something - you are not holding on to a past event you are here now.I know some of you may say the following: "But Karim, where I am right now really sucks - I don't want to think about it." Where you are now is unpleasant because you're looking at all the negative things going on. Focus on a few of the positive things - anything from nature to the wonderful family you may have. This forces your mind to look at things differently - and tells your subconscious mind that you're ready for new possibilities.Start living in the present moment. Begin appreciating all of the things that are positive in your life. Force yourself to focus on the positive aspects of your life. Choose to let go of the negative events that are holding you back. Gets your subconscious mind working for you by giving it a positive direction.

How You Can Let Go
If you're still trying to figure out whether you're holding on to something that's not helping you then do the following: Take note of your thoughts, what are you thinking about regularly? Do these thoughts help you? Are you hanging on to something that no longer serves you? Can you focus on something more positive and productive? If so what? Keep a list and see what you come up with. Then change your thoughts when you think about the negative past. Track your thoughts. Change thoughts that don't work for you. Eliminate thoughts that focus on the past. Begin letting go by pushing your mind and subconscious mind in a new direction.

As we all go through our spiritual journey, I think it's important to remember how we get there. Each day, I have many thoughts, experiences, or intuition that leads me one way or another. Sometimes those are very interesting experiences. Here is where I record everything I feel I want to remember about this journey.
