Wow, I just got home from a holographic sound meditation by Paul Hubbert (www.holographicsound.com) that was truly amazing. He does these in Austin twice a month, and if you can get to one I highly recommend it. It was especially powerful tonight because today is the first new moon of 2012, as well as the Chinese New Year of the Water Dragon, as well as some other more woo-woo stuff you can ask me about if you want to. Bottom line, it’s a day to magnify intentions, especially of new beginnings.
This morning when I got up I was prompted to write a list that began with this statement: I acknowledge and declare that, with God as my Source, money is constantly flowing to me in unlimited supply. With this unlimited money…and then I followed it with present tense statements of things I am already doing with unlimited money is some quantum field of possibility (otherwise I would be unable to imagine it). For example, With this unlimited money I have a space where I see healing clients that is serene and beautiful.
I encourage you to write such a list, from your heart, and then read it out loud every day, anchoring it in the physical plane. That’s certainly what I’m going to do.
What I am led to share with you today came through me during a coaching session with a client recently. Although the words below are directed to healers, the concept applies to everyone. In any contact you have with others, personal or business, you are only responsible for you. You are responsible for the energy you allow to flow through you to that other person, but you are not responsible for how they receive it. If you send out information in love, such as giving a compliment, and it is rebuffed by the other person, it is their choice to block that loving energy. As long as you are sending out your energy—in conversation, in coaching, in healing, in any action—in love you are doing all you are asked to do. Blaming yourself and making yourself responsible for the other person’s choices serves no one.
Even though the paragraph below is directed to healers, think about the many ways it can be relevant to you.
You are a gifted healer and the energy flows through you to whatever the client is calling through. Whether you feel it or they feel it in the moment is really irrelevant. We’ve come to expect certain feelings or signs during a healing session, and if XYZ didn’t happen then we think it didn’t work. Let’s let go of that. Say to the client at the start of the session: “ In this session I am just an open channel. I am opening to Spirit and allowing whatever YOU are calling through to flow through me. So whether we feel something or we don’t , we just trust the process that Spirit is doing exactly what your Higher Self is asking for. We will just be blessed and grateful for the experience and let go of any expectations from past experience. Understanding and accepting this is how you will get the most out of your session with me.” This frees the energy up Spirit to work through and for both of you.
Saturday morning, November 12, the day my husband transitioned, I wrote in my journal: Steve made it through the night, sleeping more peacefully than he has, perhaps because of the anti-agitation medicine they gave him. I thought he might transition during the night (11-11-11), so I kept watch and only slept from 4-6 am. One of the many things I’ve been thinking about was my statement to a couple people in the last few months that the men I love leave—my dad seemed to travel a lot when I was small which felt like he was leaving me, several bosses I really cared about left through job changes, my first husband left through suicide, my son left through marriage, and now Steve. My angels showed me that everyone in everyone’s life passes through for a season of experience and learning, no matter how brief or long, and everyone leaves. Nothing has gone wrong, and all judgment of good, bad, right, or wrong misses the big picture of all being perfect for our soul growth, including the perfect experience and the perfect amount of time together. We like to hold on to familiar things, so when those pass on or discontinue for some reason we tell ourselves stories of sorrow and great loss. Are we mourning the loss of the person and the relationship? Yes. Are we mourning the loss of the comfort and the known quantity? Yes. Are we mourning our hopes for what might have been? Yes, all of these. It is human nature, or learned behavior, to do so. What if we could contemplate every relationship, make a list of what we loved, what we learned, and what we had the opportunity to heal, and then let go with gratitude for the experience and for the other person being willing to play with us?
(this was sent out to my contacts on Saturday November 12, 2011)
“After battling cancer for 3 years my husband Steve died today at 4:10 pm. I am grateful that he is out of the pain and struggle. I am grateful for our almost 9 years together and for all we shared and learned from each other. I am grateful that he had his mental faculties to the end, and I am grateful for the good care he received at the VA Hospital in Houston. I am grateful that we had plenty of time to say how much we loved and appreciated each other, and I am grateful that, when he decided to go, it was obvious what was happening and I was able to hold his hand and speak loving words to him as he gently slipped into a better place.”
The outpouring of love, support and prayers I received as a response, both directly and on Facebook, was both a comfort and an honor. How uplifting to know so many people care! I encourage anyone reading this to take the few minutes to support your friends and family, even in little things, knowing that it means a lot.
I heard on an Abraham-Hicks CD recently that desire has pulling power. “Want” keeps you in a state of not having, but “desire” brings the resources and energy thorough you. Energy needs a job to do, and all resources are energy. When you are specific about what the energy will be used for it flows through you to accomplish that desire in a more powerful way. Requesting the experience of something, which I first heard about through Hans King, both states your desire and requests assistance from God/Source/Angels to bring it into physical form. Also powerful is to request the feeling of having something, because the feeling is what you are really searching for anyway (example: having abundant financial resources gives you the feeling of security).
Give some focused attention to the pulling power of desire by writing out a list of things you desire. Start the list with things you desire that are already in your physical experience (I desire a safe, comfortable place to live. I desire loving and supportive friendships). This helps you notice that many things you desire are already part of your reality. Then add things that already exist in the realm of possibilities (otherwise you could not be aware of them) for which you choose to summon the energy through you to bring them into physical manifestation. Examples: I desire a prosperous and steady flow of income that is always at least 3 times my expenses. I desire for Spirit to inspire many empowering books through me.
Another thing you can do to activate the pulling power of desire is to make a list of all the things you would like to buy, without limitation, writing the amount by each ($5000 for private coaching, $400 for Lisa Turner’s class, $500 for new clothes, etc).

I was talking with a friend last week who was feeling a sense of failure because someone accused her of not implementing (learning about a process and failing to put it into practice in her business), and then she started accusing herself. It got me thinking about how often we look outside ourselves for the answers—what others say, do, or recommend—and often it’s because we are feeling “not enough” (not smart enough, not creative enough, not intuitive enough, etc) on our own.
They tell you, and you believe, that it (whatever they are advising you to do) worked for them, so it will work for you. Or maybe it doesn’t work for them but they are teaching it because they heard it should work. So you try to implement something that is not authentically you, and when it doesn’t work the way they promised, or when you can’t even bring yourself to finish it, you blame yourself.
Consider that these may actually be the reasons it didn’t work:
- The person recommending it is not you. Everyone has a different personality, background, patterns and vibrations, and all those things and more figure in to the mix.
- Their business is not your business. Even if it seems similar, each business is unique.
- You fumble forward without identifying your WHY behind this new task.
On my Awakening in Austin Fabulous Friday show last week I shared a simple process to overcome failure to implement, including a detailed example. Go to the Awakening in Austin show page (www.AwakeninginAustin.com) and, in the On Demand section, click on “Fabulous Friday: How to Overcome Failure to Implement.”
I found a new meaning for “unwind” this morning. I’ve got some things going on that feel pretty big to me (don’t we all!). When I went to the park this morning I decided to intentionally unwind by saying out loud (no one was around): It is my intention to unwind all the fear and uncertainty and anxiety I’m feeling as I walk around the pond. Then I walked counter-clockwise around the duck pond.
As I neared my starting place my attention was drawn to a beautiful yellow daisy, growing all by itself, amongst all the dead grass, under the shade of a big tree. I lingered a few moments, thanking the daisy for reminding me that there is beauty present, even in the midst of what doesn’t look so beautiful, under the protection and guidance of Mother/Father God. And now that I felt more open from the unwinding exercise, I set a new intention to fill up with love and hope and light and possibilities and sure knowing that it’s gonna be alright, and I walked around the pond clockwise.
So when you’re feeling tense, fearful, contracted, sometimes just thinking is not enough to bring you out of it. Get up and go outside, or someplace where you can walk counterclockwise with the intention of unwinding whatever it is you want to release, and then walk around it clockwise imagining yourself filling up with all good things!

Cooler temperatures have returned to Austin. AAAhhhhh. This morning I went for a walk at Old Settler’s Park and then sat in my lounge chair facing the pond, under the shade of a magnificent tree. As my mind drifted to the things I have to do and the challenges I’m facing, I gently brought it back to now, to this moment, which is all that is real anyway. The rest are thoughts, probabilities, possibilities. But this time at the park is the blissful life experience I have created for myself right now. The sunlight is shimmering off the water, the leaves of the willow tree are dancing in the wind like hula skirts, and the gentle breeze is blowing the tall grass by the pond so it looks like liquid green. I have the freedom to enjoy this experience as long as I choose to.
As you go about your day, notice when you slip into moments of self hypnosis, worry and overwhelm. Look around, and ask yourself, “What blissful life experience can I enjoy right now?” And then, enjoy it!
Feeling overwhelmed?
Before you tackle tomorrow, do yourself a favor. Take a blank piece of paper and draw a line down the middle, top to bottom. At the top of the left side write ME, and at the top of the right side write GOD (or Source, or Angels, or whatever you call the creative energy of the Universe).
Now, on the left side write the most important thing you must do tomorrow. On the right side, write whatever you want God to help you with in relation to that (this could be many things). For example, on the ME side for tomorrow I would write “Interview Carol Smith on my radio show” and on the GOD side I would write “help Carol remember to call in on time, keep all the technology functioning smoothly, keep the external environment quiet for me and for Carol so the recording is clear, draw to the show those who will benefit from the message, guide our thoughts and words to flow easily and convey the most helpful information.”
Notice how much longer the God side is? There is so much we can’t control, yet we think if we worry about it enough we can. This process helps us see that God is in control and helps us consciously turn the various aspects of our task over to Him, knowing that He is working for the highest good of all concerned.
Now repeat the process for each thing you plan to do tomorrow. There, that feels better.

A few days ago I was reading “Aspire: Discovering Your Purpose Trough the Power of Words” by Kevin Hall. Each chapter examines a different inspiring word, and the chapter I opened to was “Namasté.”
Namasté (nah-mah-STAY) is spoken with your hands in prayer position, thumbs touching the heart, and head bowing as you say it. Basically, it means “I honor the place in you where the entire universe resides. I honor the place in you of light, love, truth, peace and wisdom” (Gandhi). I have also heard other similar interpretations.
Think about the energy of honoring the best in someone else, and the best in yourself. Allow yourself to feel the holiness, the sacredness, of it. The world could certainly use more of that energy, right? When you look in the mirror in the morning, instead of finding fault with yourself, honor yourself by saying Namasté. If you have friends who are familiar with this word, use it as a greeting of honor. For other people you meet who probably won’t know what you mean, just say something like, “I honor the light in you” (or the love in you or the truth in you). The reverence you show for yourself and others exponentially increases the light in the world.
Namasté.
