Affirmations For Change

Creating Positive Thought Patterns

We all set up recurring thought patterns in our subconscious that affect how we live our life. These patterns could be self doubt, a lack of confidence, or emotional perspectives based on how you interact with others. These thoughts can come from societies preconceived notions about the kind of person you are, from family and friends, and from your own views about situations you have experienced in your life.

Allowing these thought patterns to reside in your subconscious, allows them to dictate your choices in life, which at times can be detrimental to self-growth and enlightenment.

One way to help bring about change in your life is to focus on replacing negative thinking with positive thinking through affirmations. Instead of “I hate being fat” for instance, start telling yourself “I am beautiful” or “I am working to become the healthy person I want to be”.

Affirmations are a way of reprogramming the subconscious to think differently and to automatically react in a more positive way when trigger situations occur in your life. Continue reading →

Evolving The Spirit

Karma isn’t the only thing that can set up thought patterns and actions in your life. How you think affects the way you feel. Our own thought patterns effect the health of our body, mind and spirit.

When you’re creating an uneasiness or “dis-ease” in your body, by the way you think, feel and approach each situation in your life, you create energy that will manifest in your physical body. So each emotional thought pattern is really an underlying “cause” of a physical illness, or emotional situation in your life.

If you are a person who has been through many failed relationships, you could develop a thought pattern that causes you to expect failure in any new relationship that comes your way. Which is a way to set up a self fulfilling prophecy, even when your own “expected perception” is wrong. Continue reading →

How You Think Creates How You Feel

Our own thought patterns effect the health of our body. Each emotional thought pattern is really an underlying “cause” of a physical illness. Understanding the illness can help you address the cause and thereby riding the body of the disease. How you think, literally creates how you feel.

There are many books on the market that describe this system of belief and understanding, but in my opinion, one of the best books on the market for healers is called “Heal Your Body” by Louise Hay, from Hay House Publishing. Ms. Hay created one of, if not the definitive source for emotional causes, their corresponding illness and a metaphysical affirmation to help the individual deal with the originating cause for illnesses.

One way to help bring about change in your life it so focus on replacing negative thinking with positive thinking through affirmations. Affirmations are a way of reprogramming the subconscious to think differently and to automatically react in a more positive way when trigger situations occur in your life.

Understanding the cause is not the cure for an ailment. And this metaphysical/shamanistic approach should be used as a support and in conjunction with traditional approaches to medical evaluations and treatment by your doctor. It doesn’t replace modern medicine. Continue reading →

Shamanistic Healing

An Introduction

Our own thought patterns effect the health of our body. Each emotional thought pattern is really an underlying “cause” of a physical illness. In other words, how you think, creates how you feel. This concept has been the basis of Shamanistic healing modalities around the world. It’s not new, and it’s not unique. But it’s also not something you find very often in Western Medicine.

Understanding the physical illness can help you address the underlying cause and thereby riding the body of the disease. That doesn’t mean that you can forgo mainstream medicine all together. Sometimes when you don’t listen to the messages of your body; the issue progresses and requires mainstream medical attention.

But these metaphysical/shamanistic concepts can help you understand why the illness formed, and how you can include metaphysical practices to help support the medical treatment from your physician.

There are many books on the market that describe this system of understanding and belief, but for me, one of the best books on the market for healers is called “Heal Your Body” by Louise Hay, from Hay House Publishing. Ms. Hay created one of, if not the definitive source for emotional causes, their corresponding illness and a metaphysical affirmation to help the individual deal with the originating cause. She has an excellent way of making the concepts understandable for healers and puts the perspective into words. I highly recommend her books.

These concepts will help any healer with their chosen mode of Metaphysical/Shamanistic healing. Be it Reiki, Rolfing, Crystal or Light healing, the basics begin the mind.

Psychic Development

Mar30

Developing Your Talents

Everyone is psychic to one degree or another. Some people are just more “aware” of the unseen energies within and around them than others are. But those “gut feelings”, a “woman’s intuition”, or a “detective’s hunch”, are all psychic abilities. We’ve just learned to call them something that doesn’t sound so far “out there”.

If you haven’t already, I’d suggest you go back a few postings and read about Psychic Abilities. On that article you’ll find descriptions about a Psychic and a Channel. The different types of Psychic senses a person might have. And how Metaphysics explains the levels of psychic communications.

Of all the questions I’m asked, “How can I be a psychic” is the most common. Right along with “How can I develop my own psychic skills?” As I mentioned above, you’re already psychic. Because everyone already is, it’s part of our nature or our natural instincts. It’s not a “gift”, nor is it a “special ability”. Everyone has it and everyone has the potential to exercise and develop their own senses. So before I answer this second question, how can you develop my skills, I always ask my own question first. “Why do you want to?” It’s important to understand why someone wants to enhance and develop their natural abilities? I’ve heard every answer in the book. “I want to read minds”, well you won’t be able to do that, so next? “I want to give readings and make some extra money” or “I want to be a psychic for a living”.Those desires come with karmic consequences, so be careful what you ask for. Ideally the answer I’m looking for is, so I can communicate with the Divine force in my life. Or some variation of that.

Are You Psychic?

How many times have you said to yourself, or someone else “I have a gut feeling”, or “This place or person feels creepy”? We all do it. We all have that inner instinct that tries to warn of danger. Most people ignore those gut feelings. Or dismiss them as imagination or paranoia. But did you ever think, those feelings might be accurate and real?

Psychic: (greek psychiokos – psyche, soul or that which is mental) to sense, to understand and to interpret for practical purposes, a force that enters in and emanates out of the body, mind and/or spiritual or ethereal realms without use of the 5 physical senses.

Being Psychic
Everyone is psychic to some degree, some people are just more in-tune with that side of their mind-body-spirit connection than others. These “gifts” are really just part of your senses. Those gut feelings, they’re really just your natural senses picking up on very subtle energy around you and warning you or sending you a message. Continue reading →

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Eight of Pentacles

Feb23

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Spend time mending fences instead of holding onto your anger. Not everyone is to blame for the event you’re mad about. But it sure seems like you’re taking it out on everyone around you. Take a deep breath and allow your inner kindness to show. You’re not the only one who is worried or concerned. So stop pushing others away, when all they really want to do is help.

Additional Insight:

Whither it’s a build up of all the little things, or one big event that has you on pins and needles, you’re not alone. Your actions impact others around you and all they want to do is show you support. They’re not part of the problem, and their not out to get you. So stop taking your anger out on them.

You’re better off keeping to yourself and offering a fake smile, than saying something you shouldn’t or uttering something you wish you hadn’t said. You need to breathe and show some patience. Eight days from now, things are going to be totally different and the decisions that have been made will show their hand. Those making the decisions will see the error of their ways and make necessary, and beneficial changes. But you must wait for them to get to that point on their own.

Just do what you need to do, follow the direction you’ve been given and keep your nose to the grind stone. The work you do now will be noticed, especially if you show the quality in your efforts that benefit everyone. Use your newly discovered spare time to fill out paperwork, submit requests and follow-up on issues that are more personal in nature. This is your opportunity to complete the tasks that benefit you most. The Divine Universe is providing you this opportunity to improve your situation while you wait. Take advantage of it. You’ll be glad you did.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Chariot

Feb22

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Ride it out, don’t go in looking for a fight and just watch the drama work itself out. The game isn’t over, but you still have no part to play. Decisions are being made in the shadows that have to face the light of day. There’s no agreements being made, just knee jerk reactions. That alone, will have consequences and you don’t want to be in the way.

Additional Insight:

Today you need to mind your manners and hold your tongue. While some decisions are impacting your ride, they won’t last for very long. Allow the Divine Universe to work its magik as those around you search for answers that bring about the necessary balance. There’s nothing you can do right now, but wait and be patient.

This isn’t the time to panic or make rash decisions. The cart is moving too fast to know which way to turn. If you move too quickly, you could be giving up the security you’ve built up. Just be calm and watch the aftermath relating to the actions already taken. You have plenty of time to do your paper work and prepare for any scenario.

Take advantage of the opportunity to catch up on the things you’ve been putting aside for too long. You already know there are some items on your list that you can do, maybe even things you’ve long needed to do. Stop putting off the fine details and make time to fill out the forms and submit the requests. Even if you stay where you are, those “certifications” will give you some much needed leverage. Make it a priority of your day and get it done.

By evening, don’t count on having any more information than you did this morning. You’re not being kept out of the loop, because no one really knows what’s happening. Even though you still don’t know what all the issues are, allow yourself to relax. The pressure is off your shoulders, even if it’s just for a little while. Spend some quality time with those you love and don’t worry! It’s going to be ok. You’re not going backwards!

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Knight of Cups

Feb21

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Be watchful, keep silent and stay out of the fray. A backlash is about to occur and you don’t want to be anywhere near it. Guard your domain, but don’t engage in the fight. It’s not yours to defend, nor is it in your best interest to rebuke. You’ll learn more by remaining silent and if possible, remain hidden.

Additional Insight:

The battle that’s raging around you, has nothing to do with you. The conflict may impact you down the road, but don’t assume that’s a bad thing. Some issues must be hammered out and put to rest in order for you to move forward with your goals. But that doesn’t mean you need to stick your nose in, where it doesn’t belong.

Just sit back and watch. Remain ready in case you need to push the fight back onto the battlefield and away from your personal domain. Don’t allow someone to pull you into the fray with the idea that you’re going to stand up for their side. You might want them to win, but whatever you do, don’t let that get out. A simple “don’t bring me into this” will be sufficient to keep you in neutral territory. Don’t even think you can be the mediator and bring peace to the situation. It’s not your place!

By evening, you’ll be able to relax and have a better understanding about what’s been going on behind closed doors. Keeping your nose to the grind stone and avoiding the drama, will be noticed by those in charge of the battle. And it will be appreciated. When the “King” comes calling, and only IF you’re asked what would you do, should you give your opinion. Just make sure you do it in private and without pointing fingers at anyone. Don’t tear anyone down, don’t build anyone up too much. And be able to justify your opinion. Otherwise, you’re just another clog in the wheel.
