An Afformation is an affirmation with a neat little twist that makes a huge difference. Put very simply an Afformation is the question form of an affirmation. Noah St. John is the master mind behind this new way creating. Noah figured out the human mind is always asking and searching for the answers to questions. However, a lot of us spend way too much of our time asking self defeating questions.
I enjoy being spirit first before leaping to tasks
Actually there is no greater place I like to reside than from my spirit place.
I love to increase the rate of productivity flow without neglecting peace of spirit...
This thread is for myself and anyone that can relate to this productivity ease process... of getting things done ... and always ... .feeling the thank you of their spirit.
TODAY I VISUALIZE AND FEEL ALL BEING CREATED MORE MAGNIFICENTLY THAN I COULD EVER DO ALONE.
TODAY I PRACTICE WHAT I KNOW IS REAL AND RIGHT FOR MY SPIRIT TO ADVANCE TO WHAT IS BEST NEXT.
TODAY FROM MY SOUL WITH THE POWER OF MY CREATOR, I CALL GOD... I ALLOW MY NEEDS BE MET WITH THE INTENSITY OF I AM.
TODAY I OPERATE IN faith, trust, and belief!
Today, I Am filled with Infinite, creative perfect energy.
Affirming Quote May I be abundant as never before, that I am now. May I be healthy as never before, that I am now. May I be loved and loving as never before, that I am now.
I Am loved and loving as never before, that I am now I Am healthy as never before, that I am now. I Am abundant as never before, that I am now. (Matt Khan)
~
more than ever....
Abundance is the energy of permission The more you permit yourself the right to desire what you want, express gratitude for what you have, and be excited for whatever comes your way the more abundance you are bound to receive.
Today is a great day to do what I need for me. Now I am a wonderful team player at work & much to give to others. Now I can choose to give as I desire. Now time is truly my playmate and the universe is my favorite playground.
Ease is the mode of travel.
“I am centered and calm. Information flows to me.” “I understand what is needed. I know what I need to do.” “My focus is clear. My attention flows to one thing at a time.” “I focus on this task only. This task is easy.” “I take joy in doing one thing at a time.” “Clarity” “Focus”

√ Yes, sometimes we need to make a change in what we do, but at all times we benefit from learning to love what we are already doing. It begins with accepting our life as it is. We still work to improve it, but all the while we accept it, we do not reject it.Here our spiritual inner work can profoundly affect our experience of life. The mind of desire, with what it wants and what it does not want, leads us into rejection, into dissatisfaction. Spiritual practice offers many approaches to this: here are several. First, we practice sensing our body. In sensing we have contact with our body, we become fully embodied. Unless we are in pain, our usual experience of our body is vague and neutral. Enhancing our contact with our body through direct and intentional awareness of it, through sensing, makes it vivid and even pleasurable. Through sensing, we revel in the mere fact of having a body. Through sensing, we love our body. And since our life is synonymous with having a body, through sensing we learn to love our life. During this life, we always have a body and thus always have the opportunity of sensing our body. Living in the sensitive energy, brings more aliveness to life. Through sensing, we can take pleasure in the simple fact of being in our body.by Joseph Nafton Love of Lifefrom Inner Frontiers.org site link..to read in whole context

Point being: You’ve already engaged it. You’ve already commanded it. You’ve already done the impossible… So what’s the big deal about doing it again?

Lyrics
A little like Gene Wilder now coming out of the tower now In a glass elevator that could take you all the way to the sky Ain’t trying to fool you now got nothing to lose no how So be in it with the limitless image of the intimate thinking what you’re getting is love
All you need is love
Ain’t it nice to get out of here? Already out of the atmosphere Well if the glass doesn’t shatter but it wouldn’t really matter It’s the love that is lifting us up
All you need is love
We’re going up, up, up flying away We’re taking the higher route taking the ceiling out We’re going up; we’re flying away Never coming down; we’re living it up, living it up!
What happens when your light goes out? No one there to give you mouth to mouth Don’t let the breakdown jump on your acclaim that a brother be a hero now Cause I know you know because once you know you’ll always know It’s your own, your own, your own love that gets you where you want to go
We’re going up, up, up flying away We’re taking the higher route taking the ceiling out We’re going up; we’re flying away Never coming down; we’re living it up, we’re living it up! Yeah, we’re living it up, living it up
You know that it’s good cause only good love when it’s really love You can just love, love, love anything it’s your destiny
A little like Gene Wilder now coming out of the tower now In a glass elevator that could take you all the way to the sky
We’re going up; we’re flying away We’re taking the higher route we’re taking the ceiling out We’re going up; we’re flying away Never coming down; because we’re living it up, living it up!
We’re up flying away We’re taking the higher route taking the ceiling out We’re going up; we’re flying away Never coming down; because we’re living it up, living it up Living it up, living it up

Manifesting Experiment 1The ‘Manifesting Box’ Method – How to get what you want effortlessly…Sometimes you just can’t let go enough of what you want to allow it to come to you. In those cases, you are really left with no choice but to deal with your feelings about what you want directly. Once you feel better about what you want, you will not be standing in the way of it coming even if you do think about it.

The Manifesting Box Here are the steps involved in how to manifest your desires effortlessly. STEP 1: Decide what you want and why you want it, and write that on a piece of paper STEP 2: Put the paper in the box STEP 3: Forget about it STEP 4: Record your Vibrational Matches below Guideline for request writing Here is the guideline that I use when writing out a request for what I want… Write your request in such a way that you can hand it straight over to a reasonably-intelligent person who is going to go and get it or do it for you. But the single condition is that once you have given them your request you cannot contact them again about it or give them further information. see link to read more

***~17 SECONDS~*** In changing our thoughts and beliefs, there is a 3 to 1 ratio. Meaning if you want to change your beliefs you need to think of 3 positive things every time you have 1 negative thought. Also, it is known that a thought that you can hold in your mind for 17 seconds will attract another similar thought, so think of what you want and hold that thought for 17 seconds. Try to do this 3 times each time you think of that which you do want. excerpt from www.positivethinking-toolbox.com

***~quote~*** Source never wields vengeance or offers punishment, for Source understands you are valuable; you are worthy; you are blessed. Source understands that you never get it done and you cannot get it wrong, and that even when you stand in a place that currently feels wrong, ultimately you will return to what feels right. You can return now to what feels right with an adjustment of your thought process and an adjustment of your vibration and a changing of your point of attraction and a finally letting in of the Well-Being that is flowing to you always.

~~ ✰~~ Not everything on this thread is from Abe-Teachings
✿Abraham quote♥✿♥You don’t have to worry about what their vibration is if your vibration is one of connection. Because if your vibration is one of connection — you’re going to dominate the vibration. This is the way you learn your relationships. The thing that most people do not understand, is that you get to control the way you feel, because you get to choose the thoughts you think. Most people think that they only have the option of responding to the circumstances that surround them. And that’s what makes them attempt the impossible, which is to control the circumstances around them, which only feeds their feeling of frustration and vulnerability, because it doesn’t take very much life experience to discover you can’t control all of those circumstances. But you can control your vibration. And when you control your vibration, you’ve controlled everything that has anything to do with you.
♥✿♥Abraham Quote on Appreciation♥✿♥ Since it is your primary intention, as you move through your day, to find things to appreciate, you are practicing a vibration of less resistance, and you are making your connection to your own Source Energy stronger. Because the vibration of appreciation is the most powerful connection between the physical you and the Non-Physical You, this process will also put you in a position to receive even clearer guidance from your Inner Being.
~~ ✰~~
✿Abraham quote Tell everyone you know: “My happiness depends on me, so you’re off the hook.” And then demonstrate it. Be happy, no matter what they’re doing. Practice feeling good, no matter what. And before you know it, you will not give anyone else responsibility for the way you feel — and then, you’ll love them all. Because the only reason you don’t love them, is because you’re using them as your excuse to not feel good.
~~ ✰~~
✿Abraham quote By choosing better feeling thoughts and by speaking more of what you do want and less of what you don’t want, you will gently tune yourself to the vibrational frequency of your Broader Perspective. To see your world through the eyes of Source is truly the most spectacular view of life, for from that vibrational vantage point, you are in alignment with, and therefore in the process of attracting, only what you would consider to be the very best of your world.
~~ ✰~~
✿Abraham quote ˚ The emotion you feel is always about the vibrational variance between where you want to be and where you are. If you’re out of balance, there are only two ways to bring yourself into alignment – either raise your expectation to match your desire, or lower your desire to match your expectation.
~~ ✰~~
✿Abraham quote The thought that you think, you think, which attracts to it – so you think it some more, which attracts to it – so you think it some more. In other words, when you have an expectation, you’ve got a dominant thought going on, and Law of Attraction is going to deliver that to you again and again and again.

Pointing your attention where you want to go, and then doing what feels good.
It’s that simple. Because when we’ve got in mind what we want, and then we follow whatever inspirations we get, we’re home free. Pretty easy, right? Focus, then feel good.
I use three questions to help me do that – that process of focus, then feel good. Here are the questions:
What do I want?
What does that look like/feel like/ or sound like?
What sounds good/feels good next?
If you use those questions – even just on a daily basis – you will find things start going your way. Things will start happening, without you even working too hard for it. In fact, if you’re working too hard – that can slow the whole party up (see Slacker Manifesting if you want more support with that).
But those three questions will help you do the two things that matter most: focus and align. (Align is another word for feeling good. When we’re feeling good, we’re aligned. And when we’re aligned, that’s when we’re letting the good stuff in.)
So … What do I want? What does that feel like, look like, sound like? What sounds good next?
It’s a simple formula that will serve you extremely well.
excerpt from article 2 What I’m talking about is, embracing the skills of:
Appreciation Enjoyment
Allowing
When we get good at those three things, we become really natural and incredibly powerful creators.
So even if you never practiced conscious creation, or never used the focus & feel good instruction, if all you did was get really good at appreciating, enjoying and allowing – you would naturally get what you want in life.
There are people out there proving that every day, too. You probably know some. Maybe you ARE one.
When we practice these three things, it’s like supercharging our manifesting. Things take off.
In a really good way.
*So in those moments when you ask yourself what you could do to better make your dreams come true, or to be better at this manifesting stuff, I’d invite you to ***check in on how well you are Appreciating, Enjoying, and Allowing._***
** * ***Let’s look at each of those elements briefly:***
~
** * ***Appreciation***
** * It’s one of the highest vibes you can flow – maybe even THE highest. It’s right up there with love, joy, inspiration and passion. It’s good juju. You want your life to be fueled with this stuff.
** * Because think about it – since like attracts like, when you are in a state of appreciation, you naturally attract more stuff to appreciate. (It’s a cool cycle to be in! That’s how life just gets better and better and better!)
** * And that’s why gratitude journaling is so popular – even in non LOA savvy circles – it’s a super powerful practice!
** * For some of us it’s really easy to do the opposite –to see what’s going wrong, to complain about what’s happening. To anticipate problems or find fault with something.
** * And that’s not what we want more of.
** * We get whatever we focus on, so when we make it a habit to APPRECIATE, the forces that be respond by giving us more things to be happy about.
** * Appreciation is such an incredibly powerful thing that if all you did as a deliberate creator was become a really good appreciator – you’d be golden. Really, it’s that big a deal.
~
***Enjoyment***
This one is highly underrated in many cultures. For those of us who were raised to believe we had to earn our rewards, that we had to prove we were worthy and work hard for our success, or even that suffering or struggling is a virtue, this enjoyment principle can be a challenging one to activate. ***Appreciation*** ***Enjoyment*** ***Allowing***
When we get good at those three things, we become really natural and incredibly powerful creators.
** * You’ve heard that what you resist, persists? That’s because whatever we give attention to gets stronger.
** * As long as I’m pushing against something, I’m making it stronger. Because that’s what my attention does – it creates, it empowers, it activates, it BECOMES.
** * So I have to be able to let go the battle, and make some peace before anything can change. I hope that makes sense.
** * It might not make sense intuitively, but when you see it in action, you’ll connect the dots easily.

Here at Bmindful we love quotes that resonate with us... I know I do!!!
Here are some I wrote off the cuff the other day
internally inspired...
quoting my heart.

Taking care of ourselves is the essential love energy for taking care of all the precious details of life.
When we feel organized, harmonious and joyful -we somehow have more for all we love in the most peaceful unpretentious, valued and caring ways.
~Loving our soulmate is the best feeling. It is more of a great feeling when compassion and love are fed to us first by ourselves... We may still desire and even need some things from our soulmate... though more content with everything -no matter what when we take good care of ourselves in better better better ways.
Work often feels like a drudgery word of something to do... or a place to go. Though, we aren't what we do... we are what we are.
~
When we view our body as sacred or a temple- we keep it nourished with what we are believing best serves it.
When we view our house a home-we fill it selectively in ways we best feel what we love from the inside out.
When we choose something that doesn't fit... its suitability or lack of it becomes an easy choice to remove what doesn't benefit us
~
I am deserving... we all are. It is from this place I love.
~
When acknowledging a need I allow myself the resources in my minds eye-view and feel it from my heart place... and manifesting is no mystery... The power in co-creation is just that... co-created as my inner being allows.
~
To Have, I Give myself a heartfelt reminder that giving with love... is joyful experience when it is done without expectations... Love is its own reward. It is felt before we know or see a specific result transmitted back in the universe.
Taking care of my home is the joy and ease of being in the moment with a life I enjoy

Like all of us, I have many things I’m paving a way for(:
Though my top area is being true to myself and do mind/body/spirit work for my self care.
I have found being satisfied with who you are is wonderful… though leaving out true footwork (like you’ve mentioned) causes complacency for even the most basic things that ‘we’ve’ come to know that works/helps.
So my goal is truly doing what it takes for what I know that works, and be open to staying up on learning more for areas that go with this.
I often don’t think I need any support in this area, because I know with or without others I do need to take care of me well… Though, I’ve decided to utilize your thread to move forward more
today I’m reviewing all (I’m aware of) that I want to incorporate in my basics/routines. Thanks Success n Freedom for this awesome thread! I want to thank flowergirl also who recently shared how bringing back supporting on threads more is a wonderful thing!
as mentioned above – the first one is kind of broad…it is firming up some very basic vital health & home areas (for me) -my exercising, meal planning, “reorganizing” my home like a vision board of joy, comfort and health(define a bit more later) . I write lots to gain clarity.
the second one is a an area which will require more research that pertains to (not so future-) future
2. per your great thoughts… above I will place this where I will see it even more everyday .
3. I actually have wanted to do even more with my vision boards… so your thread has lifted me there(:
4. wow, I like the part about putting my picture in the activity 5. visualizing and feeling… more ok(:
6. sub goals … more sub goals… and see myself doing this!!!!
I have a plan-thanks Success n Freedom… and I am truly grateful,
It isn’t that we don’t know how…
Sometimes there are too many things going on… and need to clear things out to keep it simple(: you’re are awesome!
I’m ready(:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are always creating… fun, focus & footwork are very relevant!
thanks for this thread!(: very helpful and inspiring…
looking forward to taking in this thread ….& as it continues…. too

Lyrics
A little like Gene Wilder now coming out of the tower now In a glass elevator that could take you all the way to the sky Ain’t trying to fool you now got nothing to lose no how So be in it with the limitless image of the intimate thinking what you’re getting is love
All you need is love
Ain’t it nice to get out of here? Already out of the atmosphere Well if the glass doesn’t shatter but it wouldn’t really matter It’s the love that is lifting us up
All you need is love
We’re going up, up, up flying away We’re taking the higher route taking the ceiling out We’re going up; we’re flying away Never coming down; we’re living it up, living it up!
What happens when your light goes out? No one there to give you mouth to mouth Don’t let the breakdown jump on your acclaim that a brother be a hero now Cause I know you know because once you know you’ll always know It’s your own, your own, your own love that gets you where you want to go
We’re going up, up, up flying away We’re taking the higher route taking the ceiling out We’re going up; we’re flying away Never coming down; we’re living it up, we’re living it up! Yeah, we’re living it up, living it up
You know that it’s good cause only good love when it’s really love You can just love, love, love anything it’s your destiny
A little like Gene Wilder now coming out of the tower now In a glass elevator that could take you all the way to the sky
We’re going up; we’re flying away We’re taking the higher route we’re taking the ceiling out We’re going up; we’re flying away Never coming down; because we’re living it up, living it up!
We’re up flying away We’re taking the higher route taking the ceiling out We’re going up; we’re flying away Never coming down; because we’re living it up, living it up Living it up, living it up

Manifesting Experiment 1The ‘Manifesting Box’ Method – How to get what you want effortlessly…Sometimes you just can’t let go enough of what you want to allow it to come to you. In those cases, you are really left with no choice but to deal with your feelings about what you want directly. Once you feel better about what you want, you will not be standing in the way of it coming even if you do think about it.

The Manifesting Box Here are the steps involved in how to manifest your desires effortlessly. STEP 1: Decide what you want and why you want it, and write that on a piece of paper STEP 2: Put the paper in the box STEP 3: Forget about it STEP 4: Record your Vibrational Matches below Guideline for request writing Here is the guideline that I use when writing out a request for what I want… Write your request in such a way that you can hand it straight over to a reasonably-intelligent person who is going to go and get it or do it for you. But the single condition is that once you have given them your request you cannot contact them again about it or give them further information. see link to read more

***~17 SECONDS~*** In changing our thoughts and beliefs, there is a 3 to 1 ratio. Meaning if you want to change your beliefs you need to think of 3 positive things every time you have 1 negative thought. Also, it is known that a thought that you can hold in your mind for 17 seconds will attract another similar thought, so think of what you want and hold that thought for 17 seconds. Try to do this 3 times each time you think of that which you do want. excerpt from www.positivethinking-toolbox.com

***~quote~*** Source never wields vengeance or offers punishment, for Source understands you are valuable; you are worthy; you are blessed. Source understands that you never get it done and you cannot get it wrong, and that even when you stand in a place that currently feels wrong, ultimately you will return to what feels right. You can return now to what feels right with an adjustment of your thought process and an adjustment of your vibration and a changing of your point of attraction and a finally letting in of the Well-Being that is flowing to you always. Abraham
~~ ✰~~ article/Abe LessonPie Charting This lesson is based on Abraham’s comment regarding learning to evaluate your current vibration. Abraham said, “at any time, the tone you are sending out to the Universe, can be pictured as a pie chart (a graphic showing percentages) composed of a combination of three emotions: guilt, blame or appreciation.” They suggest stopping in any moment, and asking yourself what percentage of your thought on this subject is blame, guilt or appreciation. Then, once you are aware of where you are currently vibrating, your only job is to make appreciation an ever larger piece of the pie! to read more Assignment: ( examples given on lessons page )
You can pie chart any situation in your life. Here’s an assessment tool to help you focus in on where you might want to do some work:
HOW’S YOURLIFEGOINGRIGHTNOW?
Please make at least one statement about each of the following areas of your life today. Feel free to use an additional sheet of paper to expand on your comments in areas that are important to you.
1. General Mood
2. My Health and Fitness
3. My Friends
4. My Job or Career or Life Work
5. Money
6. Self Esteem
7. My Family
8. My Significant Other
9. My Creativity
10. Other area not covered that is important to you
Whether you have chosen something that just came to you, or something from the assessment listing, now just sit down and free associate. It works well to do it with a friend, so you can say lots of statements that relate to that subject, and your friend can write them down and classify them for you as feels good/feels bad. You will need to help,. because your friend is not the same vibration as you are, and what feels good and bad to you will be different than his/her feelings about your statements. But it may interrupt your flow less than writing and classifying yourself.
Once you have the pie chart done, and can see the statements on each side, feels good/feels bad, then ask yourself this important question. “Do I want to live out the results of this percentage pie chart?” I find that a very motivating question, because if I’ve taken the trouble to pie chart something, I usually DON’T want to live with that negative vib
ration.
Then do a focus wheel on that subject, looking for things that feel good. See the lesson on focus wheels (number 5) if you don’t know how to do that process. to read more

✿Abraham quote♥✿♥You don’t have to worry about what their vibration is if your vibration is one of connection. Because if your vibration is one of connection — you’re going to dominate the vibration. This is the way you learn your relationships. The thing that most people do not understand, is that you get to control the way you feel, because you get to choose the thoughts you think. Most people think that they only have the option of responding to the circumstances that surround them. And that’s what makes them attempt the impossible, which is to control the circumstances around them, which only feeds their feeling of frustration and vulnerability, because it doesn’t take very much life experience to discover you can’t control all of those circumstances. But you can control your vibration. And when you control your vibration, you’ve controlled everything that has anything to do with you.
♥✿♥Abraham Quote on Appreciation♥✿♥ Since it is your primary intention, as you move through your day, to find things to appreciate, you are practicing a vibration of less resistance, and you are making your connection to your own Source Energy stronger. Because the vibration of appreciation is the most powerful connection between the physical you and the Non-Physical You, this process will also put you in a position to receive even clearer guidance from your Inner Being.
~~ ✰~~
✿Abraham quote Tell everyone you know: “My happiness depends on me, so you’re off the hook.” And then demonstrate it. Be happy, no matter what they’re doing. Practice feeling good, no matter what. And before you know it, you will not give anyone else responsibility for the way you feel — and then, you’ll love them all. Because the only reason you don’t love them, is because you’re using them as your excuse to not feel good.
~~ ✰~~
✿Abraham quote By choosing better feeling thoughts and by speaking more of what you do want and less of what you don’t want, you will gently tune yourself to the vibrational frequency of your Broader Perspective. To see your world through the eyes of Source is truly the most spectacular view of life, for from that vibrational vantage point, you are in alignment with, and therefore in the process of attracting, only what you would consider to be the very best of your world.
~~ ✰~~
✿Abraham quote ˚ The emotion you feel is always about the vibrational variance between where you want to be and where you are. If you’re out of balance, there are only two ways to bring yourself into alignment – either raise your expectation to match your desire, or lower your desire to match your expectation.
~~ ✰~~
✿Abraham quote The thought that you think, you think, which attracts to it – so you think it some more, which attracts to it – so you think it some more. In other words, when you have an expectation, you’ve got a dominant thought going on, and Law of Attraction is going to deliver that to you again and again and again.

article/Abe LessonPie Charting This lesson is based on Abraham’s comment regarding learning to evaluate your current vibration. Abraham said, “at any time, the tone you are sending out to the Universe, can be pictured as a pie chart (a graphic showing percentages) composed of a combination of three emotions: guilt, blame or appreciation.” They suggest stopping in any moment, and asking yourself what percentage of your thought on this subject is blame, guilt or appreciation. Then, once you are aware of where you are currently vibrating, your only job is to make appreciation an ever larger piece of the pie! to read more
You can pie chart any situation in your life. Here’s an assessment tool to help you focus in on where you might want to do some work:
HOW’S YOURLIFEGOINGRIGHTNOW?
Please make at least one statement about each of the following areas of your life today. Feel free to use an additional sheet of paper to expand on your comments in areas that are important to you.
1. General Mood
2. My Health and Fitness
3. My Friends
4. My Job or Career or Life Work
5. Money
6. Self Esteem
7. My Family
8. My Significant Other
9. My Creativity
10. Other area not covered that is important to you
Whether you have chosen something that just came to you, or something from the assessment listing, now just sit down and free associate. It works well to do it with a friend, so you can say lots of statements that relate to that subject, and your friend can write them down and classify them for you as feels good/feels bad. You will need to help,. because your friend is not the same vibration as you are, and what feels good and bad to you will be different than his/her feelings about your statements. But it may interrupt your flow less than writing and classifying yourself.
Once you have the pie chart done, and can see the statements on each side, feels good/feels bad, then ask yourself this important question. “Do I want to live out the results of this percentage pie chart?” I find that a very motivating question, because if I’ve taken the trouble to pie chart something, I usually DON’T want to live with that negative vibration.
Then do a focus wheel on that subject, looking for things that feel good. See the lesson on focus wheels (number 5) if you don’t know how to do that process. to read more

Live with love, and you live with all the richness life has to offer. Let yourself love sincerely, without expectation, just because that love flows naturally from who you are. Let go of the pretenses, fears and inhibitions, and live with the love that is at the center of you. Live with love, and it brings out the best in you. Think, speak and act from a perspective of real, authentic love, and the result is genuine and growing fulfillment. Live with love.
For love will carry you forward like nothing else can. …Ralph Marston

Pointing your attention where you want to go, and then doing what feels good.
It’s that simple. Because when we’ve got in mind what we want, and then we follow whatever inspirations we get, we’re home free. Pretty easy, right? Focus, then feel good.
I use three questions to help me do that – that process of focus, then feel good. Here are the questions:
What do I want?
What does that look like/feel like/ or sound like?
What sounds good/feels good next?
If you use those questions – even just on a daily basis – you will find things start going your way. Things will start happening, without you even working too hard for it. In fact, if you’re working too hard – that can slow the whole party up (see Slacker Manifesting if you want more support with that).
But those three questions will help you do the two things that matter most: focus and align. (Align is another word for feeling good. When we’re feeling good, we’re aligned. And when we’re aligned, that’s when we’re letting the good stuff in.)
So … What do I want? What does that feel like, look like, sound like? What sounds good next?
It’s a simple formula that will serve you extremely well.
excerpt from article 2 What I’m talking about is, embracing the skills of:
Appreciation Enjoyment
Allowing
When we get good at those three things, we become really natural and incredibly powerful creators.
So even if you never practiced conscious creation, or never used the focus & feel good instruction, if all you did was get really good at appreciating, enjoying and allowing – you would naturally get what you want in life.
There are people out there proving that every day, too. You probably know some. Maybe you ARE one.
When we practice these three things, it’s like supercharging our manifesting. Things take off.
In a really good way.
*So in those moments when you ask yourself what you could do to better make your dreams come true, or to be better at this manifesting stuff, I’d invite you to ***check in on how well you are Appreciating, Enjoying, and Allowing._***
** * ***Let’s look at each of those elements briefly:***
~
** * ***Appreciation***
** * It’s one of the highest vibes you can flow – maybe even THE highest. It’s right up there with love, joy, inspiration and passion. It’s good juju. You want your life to be fueled with this stuff.
** * Because think about it – since like attracts like, when you are in a state of appreciation, you naturally attract more stuff to appreciate. (It’s a cool cycle to be in! That’s how life just gets better and better and better!)
** * And that’s why gratitude journaling is so popular – even in non LOA savvy circles – it’s a super powerful practice!
** * For some of us it’s really easy to do the opposite –to see what’s going wrong, to complain about what’s happening. To anticipate problems or find fault with something.
** * And that’s not what we want more of.
** * We get whatever we focus on, so when we make it a habit to APPRECIATE, the forces that be respond by giving us more things to be happy about.
** * Appreciation is such an incredibly powerful thing that if all you did as a deliberate creator was become a really good appreciator – you’d be golden. Really, it’s that big a deal.
~
***Enjoyment***
This one is highly underrated in many cultures. For those of us who were raised to believe we had to earn our rewards, that we had to prove we were worthy and work hard for our success, or even that suffering or struggling is a virtue, this enjoyment principle can be a challenging one to activate. ***Appreciation*** ***Enjoyment*** ***Allowing***
When we get good at those three things, we become really natural and incredibly powerful creators.
** * You’ve heard that what you resist, persists? That’s because whatever we give attention to gets stronger.
** * As long as I’m pushing against something, I’m making it stronger. Because that’s what my attention does – it creates, it empowers, it activates, it BECOMES.
** * So I have to be able to let go the battle, and make some peace before anything can change. I hope that makes sense.
** * It might not make sense intuitively, but when you see it in action, you’ll connect the dots easily.

Here are some I wrote off the cuff the other day

quoting my heart.
What a perfect gift food that we choose is. When we are fortunate enough to choose, choosing becomes the gift

Taking care of ourselves is the essential love energy for taking care of all the precious details of life.
When we feel organized, harmonious and joyful -we somehow have more for all we love in the most peaceful unpretentious, valued and caring ways.
~Loving our soulmate is the best feeling. It is more of a great feeling when compassion and love are fed to us first by ourselves... We may still desire and even need some things from our soulmate... though more content with everything -no matter what when we take good care of ourselves in better better better ways.
Work often feels like a drudgery word of something to do... or a place to go. Though, we aren't what we do... we are what we are.
~
When we view our body as sacred or a temple- we keep it nourished with what we are believing best serves it.
When we view our house a home-we fill it selectively in ways we best feel what we love from the inside out.
When we choose something that doesn't fit... its suitability or lack of it becomes an easy choice to remove what doesn't benefit us
~
I am deserving... we all are. It is from this place I love.
~
When acknowledging a need I allow myself the resources in my minds eye-view and feel it from my heart place... and manifesting is no mystery... The power in co-creation is just that... co-created as my inner being allows.
~
To Have, I Give myself a heartfelt reminder that giving with love... is joyful experience when it is done without expectations... Love is its own reward. It is felt before we know or see a specific result transmitted back in the universe.
Taking care of my home is the joy and ease of being in the moment with a life I enjoy

Like all of us, I have many things I’m paving a way for(:
Though my top area is being true to myself and do mind/body/spirit work for my self care.
I have found being satisfied with who you are is wonderful… though leaving out true footwork (like you’ve mentioned) causes complacency for even the most basic things that ‘we’ve’ come to know that works/helps.
So my goal is truly doing what it takes for what I know that works, and be open to staying up on learning more for areas that go with this.
I often don’t think I need any support in this area, because I know with or without others I do need to take care of me well… Though, I’ve decided to utilize your thread to move forward more
today I’m reviewing all (I’m aware of) that I want to incorporate in my basics/routines. Thanks Success n Freedom for this awesome thread! I want to thank flowergirl also who recently shared how bringing back supporting on threads more is a wonderful thing!
as mentioned above – the first one is kind of broad…it is firming up some very basic vital health & home areas (for me) -my exercising, meal planning, “reorganizing” my home like a vision board of joy, comfort and health(define a bit more later) . I write lots to gain clarity.
the second one is a an area which will require more research that pertains to (not so future-) future
2. per your great thoughts… above I will place this where I will see it even more everyday .
3. I actually have wanted to do even more with my vision boards… so your thread has lifted me there(:
4. wow, I like the part about putting my picture in the activity 5. visualizing and feeling… more ok(:
6. sub goals … more sub goals… and see myself doing this!!!!
I have a plan-thanks Success n Freedom… and I am truly grateful,
It isn’t that we don’t know how…
Sometimes there are too many things going on… and need to clear things out to keep it simple(: you’re are awesome!
I’m ready(:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are always creating… fun, focus & footwork are very relevant!
thanks for this thread!(: very helpful and inspiring…
looking forward to taking in this thread ….& as it continues…. too

I Am experiencing the awesome Goodness, Joy, Resourcefulness and Liberation of surrendering to Higher Power which now is charging up my God-consciousness
“I am centered and calm. Information flows to me.” “I understand what is needed. I know what I need to do.” “My focus is clear. My attention flows to one thing at a time.” “I focus on this task only. This task is easy.” “I take joy in doing one thing at a time.” “Clarity” “Focus”
Everything works together for good. I greet this new day with a song of happiness and hope in my heart. I thank my most loving God for the freedom to determine my life and my victories. My passion is the key to my abundance. Everything in my life has brought me to this moment, and it is perfect.
Thank YOU God for letting us know what is valuable and important
It’s lovely to focus on how wonderful our lives are! I like accepting myself and that I want to inspire myself and hopefully someone else at sometime.
I love to ease into my day with thoughts of appreciation…(BIG) Things I need to get done… are from my heart place... are inspired and start getting done.
I love how this day begins to already show itself with love and beauty as I see what I love and love what I see.
I ease into enthusiasm and that feels great to me…because I can recall how I co-created the experience and it gives me hope that this is a tool that is there for me.
I love much…and love how I can focus my love on ways that bring the best out in me, and can bring my better self out to play(: I love how wonderful it is that a wonderful life is anything I feel it is…and the people who are close to me feel good sharing what they love too.
And even acquaintances in my daily experiences seem to want to exchange what they’re smiling about…or the hope of a better day. I love that!
So many blessings.

An ambivert is normally comfortable with groups and enjoys social interaction, but also relishes time alone and away from the crowd; a person who falls in the middle of an introvert and an extrovert.
I'm definitely an ambivert. I'm not more introvert than I am extrovert. I am exactly what an ambivert is, yes I like to go out and have fun but I definitely like my alone time too.
Somedays I show more qualities of one or the other, but I think everyone has their days ~quote author unknown

Jung was of the idea there was a 'middle' group. The Ambivert
~Carl Jung states there are no pure introverts or extroverts. He says certain circumstances bring out more of one than the other...And overall we will have a tendency to be more 1 than the other..Right now, I'm leaning toward ambivert-ion(:

On the way to work, I used to enjoy listening to an AM radio station which was non-stop short motivational stories. Brian Tracy was of course part of the selection… Though so was this southern fellow …Zig Ziglar…He was part of the great mix of many speakers. And of course…led to other material by him… Here are some selections I choose to share with you:
Zig Ziglar Hilary Hinton “Zig” Ziglar (November 6, 1926 – November 28, 2012) was an American author, salesman, and motivational speaker.
Zig Ziglar on happiness: Happiness is not pleasure, it is victory. Zig Ziglar
If standard of living is your major objective, quality of life almost never improves, but if quality of life is your number one objective, your standard of living almost always improves. Zig Ziglar
Duty makes us do things well, but love makes us do them beautifully. Zig Ziglar
The more you are grateful for what you have the more you will have to be grateful for Zig Ziglar
“Until you are happy with who you are, you will never be happy with what you have.” –Zig Ziglar
this quote and one below- I like very much…
Think this last quote deserves repetition with some joy attached:
Hearing this many times before... doesn't stop its feelings of newness each time I hear it.
Loving it some more!
Sending out love-is so not just a figure of speech. It reminds me of another I've grown to truly appreciate:Love is how I see and how my vision expands.
It's easy to see why we love to love ourselves...it FEELS TREMENDOUS, and our joy is a product of that.
A natural place of truly loving yourself is loving others.
Some spend their entire lives trying to get in touch with that loving-themselves more- thing, that connecting with others is often a foreign experience. Personally-I'm feeling since life on planet earth (as we know it)-is finite... finding ways to feel and be in harmony with the oneness of us all... is pretty important too
Personally-selfcare coming from Love... is truly 1 of my HIGHEST VALUES!!!
Though how wonderful it is...to allow a Love that stems from Love to 'somehow' shared with others... without debate.
Most of us have learned well:
Had a strong invigorated dose of lemon water!
Thoughts now of having an amazing late breakfast and prepare a wonderful lunch for my work day.
~~~~~~
followed through with those thoughts and (for me) waited a bit too long for 1st meal of the day... So I created a brunch out of part of tonight's dinner (citrus salmon plus my breakfast hard boiled egg. ) My selfcare felt more complete... (after I took the bite out of my own hunger...and could think/feel better...) I prepared the same thing for my hubby. I placed it on a gold shiny charger plate....and put a paper-plate on top lol. We create our own parties around here(:
Now to prepare a dynamic lunch, I won't share the menu... I will say I better get to cooking.. and they are part of my absolute healthy-favorites. Mouth starting to water, so this thread served its Mon morning purpose for me(:
Though...needing some foodie dessert 1st(:
FrenchRoast Coffee yogurt by Lazy Meadows (AtlantaFresh.com. First time I'm trying this flavor, normally I have the Ginger Peach! Also delicious!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All that matters is how I choose to spend this moment.
I am living the Divine plan which includes wonderful health, wealth, happiness, and perfect self-expression for me now
Many things go into my ideas of self-care...and I'm allowing space for more to show up(:
I would be remiss if I didn't mention:
affirmations/intentions/gratitude list, awareness of energy, & last but not least prayerful affirming unattached to my results, because I'm believing all is better than I can know or plan alone.
While reading Nancees wonderful material/links on the definition of Spiritual Wellness - I found another article I loved/needed for me too.
It essentially discusses balance.
Here is part
“mental nutrients” that your brain and relationships need to function at their best. By engaging every day in each of these servings, you promote integration in your life and enable your brain to coordinate and balance its activities. These essential mental activities strengthen your brain's internal connections and your connections with other people and the world around you.
We're not suggesting specific amounts of time for this recipe for a healthy mind, as each individual is different, and our needs change over time too. The point is to become aware of the full spectrum of essential mental activities, and as with essential nutrients, make sure that at least every day we are bringing the right ingredients into our mental diet, even if for just a bit of time. Just as you wouldn't eat only pizza every day for days on end, we shouldn't just live on focus time alone with little time for sleep. The key is balancing the day with each of these essential mental activities. Mental wellness is all about reinforcing our connections with others and the world around us; and it is also about strengthening the connections within the brain itself. When we vary the focus of attention with this spectrum of mental activities, we give the brain lots of opportunities to develop in different ways.
Balance, to me relates to Spiritual Wellness. Sometimes...I can be involved in several activities...feeling great..I'm thinking/feeling... though really needing to step back and just step back (:
I loved your thread Nancee, it created more of a centering... on the area I love to be centered with.
(I posted this on your thread too...hope you like)

The first step in my spring cleaning process is to reassess your space, your schedule, and patterns of mind to see what is supporting or not supporting your writing life.
Go and look at your writing space. What’s the state of it? Do you feel a sense of ease when you look at it? Is it crammed with stuff that belongs in other rooms of your house? If you live with other people, is this space known as your special writing area?
Have you even claimed some special place yet, or are you waiting for permission from someone else? If you’re struggling with this, see my post on claiming creative space.
Survey your space and make a quick list of what you feel needs your attention most. The questions below are not exhaustive, but offer a good place to start.
-Do you need to organize and sort your paper files?
-Would it be useful to create an index for your piles of journals?
-Are there notes from conferences and workshops that need to be reviewed and filed?
-Are there writing exercises that could be useful to you if they were typed up?
-When was the last time you did a backup of your computer files? Do you need to delete or add programs?
-Do you need to release some writing books? Welcome others?
-Do you need to physically clean your computer?
-Do you have visible reminders of your writing accomplishments? Is it time to take some down and put up new ones?
-Do you have too much or too little of something in your space?
-Do you need more or less shelf space?
-Are there big physical jobs you’d like to do (i.e. paint)?
Once you have your list you can break each item down into specific tasks.
It’s important to not get overwhelmed during spring cleaning. Many people decide they will devote a day to a spring cleaning project and then realize that they’re cranky after two hours and that the task requires at least two days. Start small and reward yourself often. Why not take from now until the official start of summer to spring clean? You could choose one project each week. I suggest working in 15-30 minute intervals so there’s less chance of getting frustrated and overwhelmed. I enjoy using an online stopwatch.
What are you reassessing right now in support of your writing life?
While I was enjoying the article above, I noticed other wonderful inspirational pieces were on that site . Hope you enjoy too

I loved this lil' funny but true I saw on Bmindful:
Hi iZ!
“In the eyes of God, we’re all perfect and we all have unlimited capacity to express brilliantly. I say unlimited capacity rather than unlimited potential because potential can be a dangerous concept. We can use it to tyrannize ourselves, to live in the future instead of the present, to set ourselves up for despair. We’re constantly measuring ourselves against what we think we could be, rather than what we are. Potential is a concept which can bind us to personal powerlessness Focus on human potential becomes impotent without a focus on human capacity. Capacity is expressed in the present, it is immediate, the key to it lies not in what we have inside of us, but rather in what we are willing to own that we have inside of us. There’s no point in waiting until we’re perfect at what we do, or enlightened masters, or PhDs in life, before opening ourselves to what we’re capable of doing now. Of course we’re not as good today as we’ll be tomorrow, but how will we ever get tomorrow’s promise without making some sort of move today?”Marianne Williamson
My body mirrors my state of mind. I am healthy, whole, and complete. ★Step Way Back,Surrender, Breathe,Discover Yes… I’m sure I have posted many of these on a profile page, and most probably a thread… A way of being is ‘working’ for me & I’m going with it… I Am allowing and experiencing what I need- I am enjoying the merit of surrender,Creating a Space and Gaining the change from a comfort zone… that is quite wonderful.
can’t really capture experience in a thread, so I thought I’d do the next best thing- surrender, affirm and allow.
affirmation which allows the stepping way back, creating a Divine Space & Discover what life Is… to truly Live live!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is a refreshing peace to connect with my inner spirit, and I do this at will with a growing ease… I feel calm and relaxed. I breathe slowly and deeply.
~ With each breath I become more centered … more honest, open & joyously peaceful I am being filled with my full spiritual power. Divine light and Divine love are flowing through me.

★“When your heart speaks, take good notes.” ― Andy Mellon _________________________________________________ _________________________________________________ I Am loving how I am recognizing my perfect blessings I love choosing to accept that I Am capable, lovable, and destined for success.

_________________________________________________ _________________________________________________ You and Your Energy: Key Points
• Our mental and emotional diets determine our energy levels, health and well-being much more than most people realize. • Look at life as an energy economy game. • Each day, ask, “Are my energy expenditures – actions, reactions, thoughts and feelings – productive or nonproductive? • During the course of my day, have I accumulated more stress or more peace? • Keeping an asset/deficit balance sheet even for a few days will give you an extremely clear picture of where and how you’re adding to your energy account and where and how you’re overdrawing it. • When we consciously evoke core heart feelings, we nourish our bodies at every level. Like quantum nutrients, core heart feelings keep our cells regenerating. Adapted from the Asset/Deficit Balance Sheet available in various HeartMath materials, including the book The HeartMath Solution, by Doc Childre and Howard Martin, with Donna Beech. great foundation-info for self-care • Passageabove below came from here

SelfCare My name that most people know me by is SelfCare, and that idea brings the best out in me, because it is truly about allowing ease in being myself, loving myself, caring for me… so I can do all else that matters for me, including being present for others(: And ultimately beyond enjoying our time here ..why are we here? Just for ourselves? Being a self care enthusiast allows us to be available and present in our lives for ourselves and for our fellow-person(: So that is what I desire more of for myself… To create a better me, so I can demonstrate more to people I love, people I’d like to love better, people I’ve yet to meet, and have known… etc… I want to grow into a better me. Therefore: I am loving my shift as I Am changed as I think and speak what I want and need. And I choose to follow through with actions which work with my heart-desires.

★“The greatest and most important problems of life are all fundamentally insoluble. They can never be solved but only outgrown.” Carl Jung
Lately I’ve been loving this one. It reached my heart before my mind(:
My mind didn’t like problems were problems… and insoluble. Though my heart explained it to me…. We simply outgrow the things that seem to stand in our way, and poof… (or it seems that fast /grin) moving forward some more(:
I slow myself to be more loving and compassionate to myself and others.

sometimes my sanctuary is just a place that is new … that has nothing that reminds me of anything… It helps where I Am surface to me
Aug 2016 I have been inspired by others who create their personal sanctuaries on this site, thank you bmindful
I’d like to give this a shot(:
I am in a wide open space, with a lovely smooth peaceful comfortable place to sit and admire all around me.
I see smooth medium sized paths… big enough to roam, though narrow enough to stay focused right where I am.
I see mountains I can easily get to, and climb safely and awesomely…and adventurously.
I see a big area of wonderful clean growing food, next to a spring that is beautiful, clear and clean to drink and bathe in.
I see smooth areas to take long naps, or get up and draw or write whatever my heart communicates with me about.
I feel clear headed, and free.
I feel love, loved and refreshed for whatever I want and who I truly am…right from the heart.
I’d like to come back and see how my sanctuary changes/grows etc.
-> “ ***what-is-the-difference-between-positive-affirmations-and-positive-intent*** according to the above article: In a nutshell • Positive affirmations help create internal alignment and strength • Positive intent helps to create external manifestations • The more aligned you are with your true self, the more aligned you are with all of consciousness and the greater ability you will have to co-create your life and experiences.

~ Affirmations For Goals I am achieving outstanding success in all areas of my life! I feel intense pleasure by following through on all endeavors I am allowing prosperity to flow into my life, and I am graciously receiving it.
It is safe now, to let any old ideas and patterns drop away. I don’t have to know exactly how I am changing — I can flow with a bit of awkwardness and uncertainty today.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here are a few suggestions to actually use the New Year as a focal point for a better life: . Think in terms of final desired outcomes. . Know your current reality in relationship to them. . That will form structural tension, the best dynamic for real and lasting change. . From that, create an action plan with due dates. . Don’t have too many “resolutions” because that will lead to overwhelm. . Choose a few that can be created quickly, within the first few weeks so you can generate some momentum. . Manage the process directly. . Learn, adjust, learn, adjust, learn as you engage in the process. . Don’t take it personally, this is not about you but about the end results you are creating. . Build foundation. The more you create, the more you are able to create. “ Robert Fritz Inc-Home Page”:http://www.robertfritz.com/wp/
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “tension-seeks-resolution”:http://www.robertfritz.com/wp/principles/tension-seeks-resolution/ R. Fritz “In fact, part of your job as a creator is to form this tension.”

“When we are willing to be open-minded, art and beauty come flooding into us in a thousand small ways. When we let ourselves see the possibilities instead of the improbabilities, we become as flexible and resilient as we really are. It is human nature to create. When we cooperate with our creativity, using it to live within the lives we actually have, we surprise ourselves with our level of invention.”Julia Cameron— The Sound of Paper: Starting from Scratch
The Power of Imagination
“I think of affirmations and visualizations as tapping into the power of the imagination, which is a generator and transformer, a force that precedes and shapes who we become, and what we create and achieve. Whenever we attempt something new or difficult, we have to be able to imagine it before it becomes possible. It’s the combination of inspiration and perspiration that brings about tangible results.”Jean Shinoda BolenClose to the BoneLife-Threatening Illness and the Search for Meaning

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “If we let go of what we’re trying to get more of, which we really don’t need, it frees up reserves of vitality to make a difference with what we have. When you make a difference with what you have, it expands. This applies to love, to time, to relationships — and, of course, to money. If you sit down and make a difference with the money that you have, you will find that your experience of it expands, and you don’t have that focus on scrambling to get more of what you don’t really need — which is what most of us are so busy doing that we don’t even notice who we are and what we have. By contrast, the context of sufficiency is making a difference with who you are, what you have, and knowing that it’s whole, complete, and exactly enough. It’s perfection.” ✰Lynne Twist

Articles What is creativity? From Human Motivation, 3rd ed., by Robert E. Franken: Creativity is defined as the tendency to generate or recognize ideas, alternatives, or possibilities that may be useful in solving problems, communicating with others, and entertaining ourselves and others. (page 396) Three reasons why people are motivated to be creative: need for novel, varied, and complex stimulation need to communicate ideas and values need to solve problems (page 396) In order to be creative, you need to be able to view things in new ways or from a different perspective. Among other things, you need to be able to generate new possibilities or new alternatives. Tests of creativity measure not only the number of alternatives that people can generate but the uniqueness of those alternatives. the ability to generate alternatives or to see things uniquely does not occur by change; it is linked to other, more fundamental qualities of thinking, such as flexibility, tolerance of ambiguity or unpredictability, and the enjoyment of things heretofore unknown.

The attitude of mind necessarily depends upon what we think. Therefore, the secret of all power, all achievement and all possession depends upon our method of thinking.
This is true because we must “be” before we can “do,” and we can “do” only to the extent which we “are,” and what we “are” depends upon what we “think.”
book The Master Key System reading/listening to this now The Master Key does not claim to be a new religion, nor is it antagonistic, or contrary, to any creed. Its realm is the realm of secular life where it stands supreme as a practical guide to the art and science of getting life’s advantages by conscious collaboration with the Law of Causation along definite lines which the inspired author elaborates.
We close by reminding the reader that pure learning is of no use whatever, even to the possessor, unless it is backed by action. Therefore the exercises set must be actually practised, otherwise the new knowledge would tend to create dreamers rather than men and women of purposeful achievement, useful alike to themselves and to all those with whom they come into contact.FREDERICK H. BURGESS for THEMASTERKEYPUBLISHINGCOMPANY London, August, 1937.

~affirmationsI Choose Peace and Happiness Written by Carmien Owen ***~KnowTheFlow.ca~*** There is one magnificent and awe-inspiring field of Unconditional Love. My every thought, my entire mind, activates this field of Unconditional Love.
I choose to identify myself with power, love, beauty, peace and happiness. Each realization of my creative potential instills a knowing within me of the Infinite power available to me. I allow myself to dwell upon love and beauty, discerning it through all events and people as a by-product of the expression of God through all. I experience the flow of peace and happiness that results from this state of heart and mind. I identify with, and am receptive to, abundance and success through my creative expression.
I can get a magnificent benefit from anything that occurs.
~ With a celebration of the magnificence of Spirit as I know It, and a sense of Awe for what this awareness inspires through me, I release these words with a profound and deep gratitude. I know it is done in the Mind of the One. And so it is.
Sometimes all I want to do…is simplify. I don’t always start there…though gratefully I get there(: ***Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ*** Purpose of this thread: Since ‘the world’ can be such an influential place, I spend time influencing myself…like I am sure other like minded individuals do(-:

I like accepting of yourself and that you want to love yourself as you should… I believe is a foundation for a wonderful life(:
I love to hear how others are appreciating(: I love to ease into my day with thoughts of appreciation…Things I need to get done…just start getting done. I love how this day begins to already show itself with love and beauty as I see what I love and love what I see.
I too need very little…and the less I seem to need…the more I desire seems to materialize like little surprises.
I ease into enthusiasm and that feels great to me…because I can recall how I co-created the experience and it gives me hope that this is a tool that is there for me.
I love much…and love how I can focus my love on ways that bring the best out in me, and can bring my better self out to play(: I love how wonderful it is that a wonderful life is anything I feel it is…and the people who are close to me feel good sharing what they love too.
And even acquaintances in my daily experiences seem to want to exchange what they’re smiling about…or the hope of a better day. I love that!

***_The Law of Attraction_*** The Law of Attraction stipulates that we attract all events, people and circumstances into our lives through our thoughts and feelings. That means if you now have relationships, health, finances, and job circumstances that you are not satisfied with, it is possible for you to turn things around … by consciously changing your thoughts, feelings and attitude towards these areas in your life.Whatever you think about, talk about, fantasize about, or give your attention to, you are going to attract more of into your life. The universe is made up of energy. Your thoughts are energy. Energy flows where attention goes. Your attention focuses energy into manifestation. Every thought you think, and its accompanying feelings, sends out a vibration to the universe (the zero point field, the quantum field, Source, God, Infinite Intelligence) and attracts back to it experiences that match the vibration of that feeling-thought

QUOTES by JACKCANFIELDFROM: The Success Principles: How to Get from Where You Are to Where You Want to Be. Now, when anything ‘bad’ happens, I remember that everything that ever happens to me has within it the seeds of something better. I look for the upside rather than the downside. I ask myself, ‘Where’s the greater benefit in this event?’ — P.47
One of the easiest ways to begin clarifying what you truly want is to make a list of 30 things you want to do, 30 things you want to have, and 30 things you want to be before you die. — P.28
If something doesn’t turn out as planned, you will ask yourself, ‘How did I create that? What was I thinking? What were my beliefs? What did I say or not say? What did I do or not do to create that result? How did I get the other person to act that way? What do I need to do differently next time to get the result I want? — P.5
I like Dr. Daniel Amen’s 18/40/60 Rule: When you’re 18, you worry about what everybody is thinking of you; when you’re 40, you don’t give a darn what anybody thinks of you; when you’re 60, you realize nobody’s been thinking about you at all. — P.45
I first learned about the power of affirmations when W. Clement Stone challenged me to set a goal so far beyond my current circumstances it would literally astound me if I achieved it. — P.79
Taking care of to-do items: ▣ If you can take care of it within 10 minutes – Do it immediately. ▣ If you want to take care of it yourself, but know it will take longer – Delay it by filing it. ▣ If you can’t do it yourself or don’t want to take time – Delegate it to someone you trust to accomplish the task; be sure to have the person report back when he or she finishes the task so that you know it is complete. ▣ Dump it – if you do not want to do anything with it. Jack Canfield

~affirmationsI Choose Peace and Happiness Written by Carmien Owen ***~KnowTheFlow.ca~*** There is one magnificent and awe-inspiring field of Unconditional Love. My every thought, my entire mind, activates this field of Unconditional Love.
I choose to identify myself with power, love, beauty, peace and happiness. Each realization of my creative potential instills a knowing within me of the Infinite power available to me. I allow myself to dwell upon love and beauty, discerning it through all events and people as a by-product of the expression of God through all. I experience the flow of peace and happiness that results from this state of heart and mind. I identify with, and am receptive to, abundance and success through my creative expression.

To know how to choose a path with heart is to learn how to follow intuitive feeling. Logic can tell you superficially where a path might lead to, but it cannot judge whether your heart will be in it. Jean Shinoda Bolen
When you recover or discover something that nourishes your soul and brings joy, care enough about yourself to make room for it in your life. Jean Shinoda Bolen
Whatever has crowded out growth needs to be recognized and removed. Jean Shinoda Bolen
To be a soulful person means to go against all the pervasive, prove-yourself values of our culture and instead treasure what is unique and internal and valuable in yourself and your own personal evolution.” Jean Shinoda Bolen
You have the need and the right to spend part of your life caring for your soul. It is not easy. You have to resist the demands of the work-oriented, often defensive, element in your psyche that measures life only in terms of output — how much you produce — not in terms of the quality of your life experiences. Jean Shinoda Bolen
We need to meditate on what is peaceful. Once we have ‘filled up’ in this way, we once again have an abundance of love to send out into the world. Jean Shinoda Bolen
I feel that one must deliberate then act, must scan every life choice with rational thinking but then base the decision on whether one’s heart will be in it. Jean Shinoda Bolen

“I know that I am pure spirit, that I always have been, and that I always will be. There is inside me a place of confidence and quietness and security where all things are known and understood. This is the Universal Mind, God, of which I am a part and which responds to me as I ask of it. This universal mind knows the answer to all of my problems, and even now the answers are speeding their way to me. I needn’t struggle for them; I needn’t worry or strive for them. When the time comes, the answers will be there. I give my problems to the great mind of God; I let go of them, confident that the correct answers will return to me when they are needed. Through the great law of attraction, everything in life that I need for my work and fulfillment will come to me. It is not necessary that I strain about this, only believe. For in the strength of my belief, my faith will make it so. I see the hand of divine intelligence all about me, in the flower, the tree, the brook, the meadow. I know that the intelligence that created all these things is in me and around me and that I can call upon it for my slightest need. I know that my body is a manifestation of pure spirit and that spirit is perfect; therefore my body is perfect also. I enjoy life, for each day brings a constant demonstration of the power and wonder of the universe and myself. I am confident. I am serene. I am sure. No matter what obstacle or undesirable circumstance crosses my path, I refuse to accept it, for it is nothing but illusion. There can be no obstacle or undesirable circumstance to the mind of God, which is in me, and around me, and serves me now.”
posted the following meditation before: I read the book 3 Magic Words in the 70’s, and it was such an inspiration back then. I still love the meditation today. ► by~ U.S. Andersen, author of book Three Magic Words (1954) suggests repeating the meditation , after a daily 10 minute period of stillness.

3 Levels Of Living psychologytoday.com/blog/happiness Three Levels To Living
Level One might be called reactionary. At this level, a person lives in the moment, but without higher-order goals or purpose. Depending on the quality of circumstances, this person will experience a greater or lesser degree of fun and pleasure.
Level Two is represented by the person who acts to attain highly valued goals. Examples include having a happy relationship, financial security, success in a career. People who live at this level open the door to satisfaction and happiness.
It is when people have a passionate purpose for their life that they live at Level Three. This occurs when a person develops the burning “why” behind what they do and then intentionally expresses this “why” throughout the fabric of his or her life. Those who live at this level experience deep fulfillment and even joy, on top of many moments of fun, pleasure, and happiness.

The secret of our lost mode of prayer is to shift our perspective of life by feeling that the miracle has already happened and our prayers have been answered. Now we have the opportunity to bring this wisdom into our lives as prayers of gratitude for what already exists, rather than asking for our prayers to be answered. Gregg Braden

***~knowing what’s important-quote~*** There are fine things which you mean to do some day, under what you think will be more favorable circumstances. But the only time that is surely yours is the present, hence this is the time to speak the word of appreciation and sympathy, to do the generous deed, to forgive the fault of a thoughtless friend, to sacrifice self a little more for others. Today is the day in which to express your noblest qualities of mind and heart, to do at least one worthy thing which you have long postponed, and to use your God-given abilities for the enrichment of someone less fortunate. Today you can make your life – significant and worthwhile. The present is yours to do with as you will.Grenville Kleiser
˚ ✰。˚ ˚ღ。 At different moments/times of our lives…different areas need tweaking.
Pick one important task you really should get done today. Clear space in front of you to do this task. Close the browser, or all browser tabs except the one you need to deal with this. Shut off the phone, clear everything else away, focus your mind on this one task. Sit there and do the task. Watch your mind want to run. Now we’re going to do “pause training,” where instead of running from the discomfort, you pause. Breathe. Turn your attention to this discomfort — it might be fear, frustration, uncertainty, self-doubt, tiredness. Drop your story about this discomfort, and just notice how it feels physically, in your body. Where is this feeling of discomfort located? What quality does it have?
You’ll notice that the discomfort actually doesn’t feel that bad, even though you habitually want to run from it. It’s just energy. It’s not actually good or bad, but just energy that’s in your body, one that you normally don’t want to have and normally judge as “bad.”
Try this pause training for yourself. It won’t work to just read about it, you have to work with it. Get to know it, become intimate with it.
Unconventional Productivity Once you’ve started to work with the discomfort, you’ll see that it’s No Big Deal. Nothing to worry about. It’s just a feeling, just energy. You’ll relax a little around it. Try to develop a friendly attitude toward it, instead of being harsh on yourself. Just notice, just smile, just breathe, just be gentle.
How do you turn this No Big Deal into productivity? Here’s a system to try:
Set your 3 Most Important Tasks (MITs) every morning, first thing when you start work. List a few other “should do’s” after that, but focus on the MITs first. Pick one of the MITs, and clear space to do it. Before you check email. Do some pause training. Notice when you want to run from this task, pause, investigate the physical feeling of discomfort with gentleness, friendliness and curiosity. Set a heart intention. When you relax into the discomfort, and see it’s not a big deal, set an intention around the task — are you doing it to improve your life, to do something good for someone else, to help the world? Find the heart in your intention — it’s ultimately coming out of love. Say to yourself, “It is my intention to do this task out of love for __” (fill in the blank: yourself, someone else, the world, etc.). Work with love. Open your hear and do this task with the love that comes out of your intention. Notice when you’re feeling discomfort and want to switch to something else, relax, do pause training if you need to, and then start again. Take breaks. Every 10-15 minutes, get up and walk around. Stretch. Drink water. Check in with yourself and see how you’re doing. Then return to the task or pick another MIT. You won’t be perfect at this, so don’t expect perfection. Just work with it, gently, and you’ll get better and better with practice.

There is a member on our site who has posted some extraordinaryaffirmations… which resonate for me. The members name is BrightAngel.…I truly like her style & feel a wonderful identification with some of her affirmations:
When I want to, I can express my gentleness openly and freely, just my love for all that is….extending out to people who are nearest to me
I believe I’m a wonderful person, and my words matter. I like expressing encouragement and support.
People often think that you have to do stuff and be a go-getter, but maybe just being yourself and living fully, also spreads joy into the world.
In what ways might I enjoy spreading love and goodness into the world? Would it be good to do this directly or indirectly? Would I like to spread love to certain issues or certain populations? I can test-drive many different ways, on many different days.
It is safe now, to let any old ideas and patterns drop away. I don’t have to know exactly how I am changing — I can flow with a bit of awkwardness and uncertainty today.
I like who I am on the inside, and see that reflected in the image I present to the outside world. I am confident and comfortable with who I am.
I am completely free to widen my circle of kindness and affection — the universe is supporting me.
I’m getting really good at noticing the gifts of others, and seeing the ways in which other people give me bits of affection and joy.
I like being here on the earthly plane, and I am feeling safe and supported here.
I allow myself to do things that I’m good at, and follow the sparks of joy that I feel while doing stuff I care about.
I find myself having everything I need to feel happy and connected
There is tremendous joy in being willing to be taught by the universe how to lift the vibrations of myself and humanity, in whatever ways I am best suited to.
I am here, whole, complete, beautiful, exactly as I am inside, exactly as I am outside. I bring the full strength and beauty of who I am into the world.

Do I build my success team with creative successful relationships?

***_The Law of Attraction_*** The Law of Attraction stipulates that we attract all events, people and circumstances into our lives through our thoughts and feelings. That means if you now have relationships, health, finances, and job circumstances that you are not satisfied with, it is possible for you to turn things around … by consciously changing your thoughts, feelings and attitude towards these areas in your life.Whatever you think about, talk about, fantasize about, or give your attention to, you are going to attract more of into your life. The universe is made up of energy. Your thoughts are energy. Energy flows where attention goes. Your attention focuses energy into manifestation. Every thought you think, and its accompanying feelings, sends out a vibration to the universe (the zero point field, the quantum field, Source, God, Infinite Intelligence) and attracts back to it experiences that match the vibration of that feeling-thought

Personally I love having dreams! It gives me something to look forward to..Though I guess one of the biggest messages I’ve received in my life… pertaining to life… is to balance out my dreams …so I do not forget why I want them… When I do that, I often find out I am right where I’m supposed to be…(for me)…and it gives me the drive to do the next right thing (for me) and when (for me)… This increases my self-worth…not my ego..my simple foundation for moving forward at my desired speed.
Whatever I end up doing or not doing will have truly been up to me..no one to blame… nothing to regret(:
I can comfortably change my mind… I can comfortably increase or decrease the speed in which I’m traveling. I can love myself.

~ ~ ~ Definition: Let’s briefly define what we mean by Joy. It’s the energy of love, the feeling quality of love. We’re talking about unconditional love for self and others. Joy is different than ordinary happiness which is usually a personality reaction to outer conditions. Joy is a soul quality and is untouched by outer circumstances.

1. Importance of the values affected. How important is this one value to your overall happiness? The more important the value, the higher the emotional intensity. 2. Expectation and adaption levels of values affected. The higher your expectations and standards, the harder it is to meet them. Values, expectations, and goals are key aspects of the HF model and directly cause mental search, stimulation, and reinforcement. Adaption levels and novelty also cause varying degrees of search, stimulation, and reinforcement. For example a child used to poverty may feel very happy about receiving a used toy that a wealthy child would feel upset receiving. 3. Number of values affected. The greater the number of values, the greater the emotional intensity. to read more Copyright 2014 Tom G. Stevens PhD Harmonious Functioning Model Of Emotions And Performance P. 250

brief excerpt from bookA Step By Step Guide For Novices To Professionals Let your nonjudgmental inner observer use neutral, nonjudgmental language as it talks. Some part of you (not your inner observer) might be judging someone—calling them “stupid” or “bad.” During the first part of the self-exploration stage, don’t let your inner observer change that judgmental part or change the language it is using. It will only observe the language and its effects on your other thoughts, emotions, and actions.
Your inner observer may notice that condemning someone increases negative thoughts, increases anger, and increases aggressive actions. The reaction of your neutral observer is not to condemn, it is, “That’s interesting—perhaps there is a causal relationship between my judgments, my anger, and my aggressive responses.”
As your inner observer talks about what it is observing, it is important that it use descriptive, nonjudgmental language. If it falls into a judgmental mode, then it will lose its power to be an accurate observer.
Let your nonjudgmental inner-observer avoid zingers and melodramatic descriptions. Zingers are key words that incite emotional reactions. They can disrupt thinking from a “just getting the facts” mode to an “I need to react” mode. At times when you are observing yourself, you will undoubtedly be tempted to think thoughts like, “That was stupid, why did I do that?” But beware of such temptations. Innuendos, digs, subtle put-downs, and defensive comments all stir up parts of us that are anything but neutral—so avoid observational zingers of any type!to read moreCopyright 2014 Tom G.

** authorTom G. Stevens PhD Psychologist/Professor Emeritus, California State University, Long Beach brief excerpt from bookANGER IS AN EMOTIONTHATCENTERS ON GETTINGCONTROL Someone calls you an “inconsiderate idiot,” and you feel angry. Someone cuts in front of you on the freeway, and you feel angry. Someone attacks your friend, and you feel angry. Someone tells you that you will not get the pay increase you think you deserve, and you feel angry. What causes you to feel anger? What do all of these situations have in common?
Underlying anger is caused by a perceived loss of control over factors affecting important values. The values in the above examples might be pride, getting someplace on time, someone you love, money, or being treated “fairly”—we are frustrated about not getting what we want or expect.Copyright 2014 Tom G. Stevens PhD
With anger, we usually think we know what caused the problem. We have some target(s) for our anger. It may be the person criticizing you, the person who cut you off on the freeway, an attacker, your boss, or even yourself. With anger, we may hope that a burst of energy aimed at the threat will defeat it. Or we may hope that a burst of energy will break the barrier stopping us from meeting our goal.
Anger can be used constructively at times. It can give us energy we need to fight back if physically attacked. However, for most situations it merely clouds our judgement and creates extra stress Copyright 2014 Tom G. Stevens PhD

✰。˚ ˚ღ。 ˛˚ 。✰˚* ˚ ★ღ ˚ 。✰ With gratitude & appreciation I present excerpts from Dr. Phillip Shapiro’s spiritual and informative site : Dr. Phillip Shapiro & Affirmations ✰。˚ ˚ღ。 ˛˚ 。✰˚* ˚ ★ღ ˚ 。✰ AFFIRMATIONS Section: what you will find on this 1 page, by clicking above link: o The Power of Thought o AFFIRMATIONSANDTHESUBCONSCIOUSMIND Positive thoughts act like medicine released from the brain’s own pharmacy. This thought-medicine cannot do its work, however, if negative ideas, beliefs, or attitudes neutralize its healing power. When a positive affirmation is stated, there is often an attack of negative thoughts or beliefs, which emerge from their storage place in the subconscious. o CREATINGPOWERFULANDEFFECTIVEAFFIRMATIONS CREATINGPOWERFULANDEFFECTIVEAFFIRMATIONS
Affirmations work, but they may not work for you if they lack the necessary potency to take hold and grow. Following are some suggestions for creating effective healing affirmations.
1. DEFINEYOURPROBLEM
2. DEFINEYOURGOAL Focus on your solution rather than the problem. Do not think so much of where you have been as of where you want to be. You become and attract what you intend. Your goals will become your new habits. For example, if you are working with disease, focus on health. For fear, invoke courage or bravery. For anger, try peace, patience, forgiveness, or gentleness. For weakness, try strength. For failure, try success.
3. PRESENTTENSE State the affirmation in the present tense, as though the goal is already accomplished. You would not want to affirm, “I am going to be calm.” You would affirm, “I am calm.”
4. POSITIVETERMS State the affirmation in positive terms such as “I am calm,” not the negative “I am no longer anxious.”
5. INDIVIDUALIZE Keep reworking the affirmation until it feels just right. For example, you may prefer “I remain even-minded under all conditions,” or “evenminded no matter the condition,” or simply a one-word affirmation: “even-minded.” When it feels right, it will fit the rhythm of your being perfectly.
6. VISUALIZATION We can reinforce the power of our affirmation by associating it with a mental picture or visualization. In this way we can think, see, and feel the reality of the affirmation. For example, we can all imagine circumstances that make us nervous, angry, or agitated. We can rehearse these scenes in our minds by creating thoughts and pictures of ourselves remaining calm despite provocation. The more we rehearse, the more likely the subconscious and conscious minds will help us stay relaxed when the actual stressful condition arrives.
7. PRACTICE Practice and repetition are most important. Without repetition, there can be no progress. Deeply embedded negative thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes have been around for a long time in the subconscious mind. When the brain cells are loaded up with thought habits that have to do with disease and limitation, it takes time to form thought circuits that have to do with health and possibility. We need to repeat affirmations continuously for chronic deeply embedded conditions, and we need to ignore an unchanged or contrary condition as we repeat the affirmation.
Many people give up early, not understanding the effort required or unwilling to do the work. Some habits, patterns, or conditions may change with ease, while others may take a long time to heal or replace. We need patience: it may take months, even years, to transform deeply ingrained habit patterns of thought, feeling, desire, or behavior. Perseverance is the magic of spiritual work.
The more we use positive affirmation, the quicker change occurs for the better. With continued practice, the affirmation takes on a life of its own. It repeats itself by itself. The thought gains momentum and strength, eventually becoming powerful enough to become reality. Repetitious positive thoughts gradually replace and finally dominate the negative patterns of the conscious and subconscious minds.
8. INTENSITY To be effective, we need to bring all of our attention and energy to our spiritual practice. Each method described in this book requires all of our heart, mind, might, and soul for maximum benefit. There must be sufficient intensity and concentration of feeling, thought, will, and faith to give the exercise—in this case, the affirmation—sufficient energy and power to make the necessary changes. If the affirmation is spoken without passion or planted in a restless, unfocused mind, it will have less power.
Muscles atrophy from lack of exercise. Similarly, those who have not been doing an inner workout weaken their powers of concentration and will, the tools necessary to break through the barriers of limitation into conscious possibility. With practice and repetition, our will power and concentration slowly grow.
As you strengthen your affirmation, be sure not to create tension by going too far. Calm concentration without tension increases the force of the thought. The goal is to repeat the affirmation as many times as you wish with calm concentration, deep feeling, and will. When you realize your attention has wandered, bring it back to the affirmation with as much focus as possible. Repeating the affirmation with increasingly intense concentration and feeling mobilizes healing power.
At first, our healing affirmations may be like sparks blowing in the wind with no apparent effect. With patient, persistent practice, these thoughts get stronger. They light healing power ablaze. Although it kindles slowly, if we keep adding affirmative fuel to the healing power, there will be a bonfire. Then the affirmation permeates our conscious and subconscious minds, every cell, fiber, molecule, and atom of our being, as well as surrounding space, eventually bringing into existence the very thing being affirmed.
9. FAITH Life energy, operating the bodily cells, tissues, organs, and systems, has within it the power of healing. This brilliant power heals our cuts, bruises, colds, and other ailments without our action. We can trust it, and there is evidence that the more we trust it, the better it works. Affirmations are more effective when practiced with faith and belief. Doubt and insecurity undermine the authority of the new positive thought, and work against the life energy and healing power. For maximum benefit, perform your affirmation with faith, trust, and belief in its power to heal.
[ excerpts ] Until you have experienced this feeling, then you have not yet tapped into the power of intention, and you are not tapping into your full potential either. That should not be a discouraging message by any means. On the contrary, it should be a message of hope. Because if you look at your life as it is now and all you have (or have not) created, realize now that everything you have done and achieved so far was what you have done without harnessing your true power.
Imagine now what you could create and who you could be if you mastered the art of tapping into the power of intention, and instead created with the power of the entire universe behind each and every one of your actions.

“Let us choose to be identified with power, with love and beauty, with peace and happiness. Let us identify ourselves with abundance and with success.”Ernest Holmes
I Choose Peace and Happiness Written by Carmien Owen KnowTheFlow.ca There is one magnificent and awe-inspiring field of Unconditional Love. My every thought, my entire mind, activates this field of Unconditional Love.
I choose to identify myself with power, love, beauty, peace and happiness. Each realization of my creative potential instills a knowing within me of the Infinite power available to me. I allow myself to dwell upon love and beauty, discerning it through all events and people as a by-product of the expression of God through all. I experience the flow of peace and happiness that results from this state of heart and mind. I identify with, and am receptive to, abundance and success through my creative expression.
With a celebration of the magnificence of Spirit as I know It, and a sense of Awe for what this awareness inspires through me, I release these words with a profound and deep gratitude. I know it is done in the Mind of the One. And so it is.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I’m sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. I love you. video1 video2

It’s for those who see the power in being gentle to others, to animals, to ourselves.

Being gentle is sometimes the most powerful thing you can do for yourself and the world around you.
quote from this site article/gentleness-as-strengthPersonally, I view gentleness as a choice, a powerful one. I choose to be gentle, but that doesn’t mean I’m a pushover. And by making gentleness a conscious choice, I am making it my strength, instead of allowing it to make me a victim.
quote from this site articlegentleness-as-strengthI view gentleness as a barometer. Environments or people that don’t let it thrive get quickly avoided. Environments that allow it to flourish get indulged upon. But it took me years to respect my gentleness in this way.
~ I am perfectly imperfect. I strive for better while loving all that I am today. In loving myself today, I am better equipped to improve myself tomorrow.
~ I forgive and cherish my mistakes, mishaps, slip ups, foul words and temper losses as items I needed to try on for size to truly understand what a bad fit they’d be for my mental, physical and spiritual wardrobe.
~
I am defined by, and I define others by, love grounded principals, essence exuding manifestations, and radiant energy transmissions. Income, status or title float shallowly in the depth of my perceptions.
~ I value my health, even when my needs inconvenience others, as I can’t truly love myself without loving and inner-adorning the shine that encapsulates the magic of my soul.
~quote from articlebook by renowned author Martha Beck called Steering by Starlight. It’s about finding the life that’s meant for you and it’s incredibly insightful, I highly recommend it (and all of her books for that matter). In it Martha teaches the most interesting trick to silencing your inner critic and I had to share it with you as I think you might benefit from it as well.
silencing your inner critic & a love letter quote from article….by calling on your brain to observe this lizard identity you’ve created, “you subtract neural energy from survival fear and move it to a more highly evolved portion of the brain… The neuron pathways that carry lizard fears become weaker the more we observe them. Patients with ‘abnormal’ brains, such as those with obsessive-compulsive disorder, have actually reconfigured their brains to ‘normal’ by using self-observation techniques.”
Stop Feeling So Intimidated by People excerpt 1. The person you’re intimidated by is human. 2. They may not be who you think they are, after all. 3. Separate your own ego. 4. Don’t posture — but do stand tall. 5. Understand your own worth. We are all the same and we are all just trying to find our way in this world and heal our souls in the process. To do so we must look internally, with love and gratitude, not outwardly with envy and lack. 6. Approach everyone with love.

excerpt- On average, it takes more than two months before a new behavior becomes automatic — 66 days to be exact. And how long it takes a new habit to form can vary widely depending on the behavior, the person, and the circumstances. In Lally’s study, it took anywhere from 18 days to 254 days for people to form a new habit. [1]
In other words, if you want to set your expectations appropriately, the truth is that it will probably take you anywhere from two months to eight months to build a new behavior into your life — not 21 days.
In other words, if you want to set your expectations appropriately, the truth is that it will probably take you anywhere from two months to eight months to build a new behavior into your life — not 21 days.
Interestingly, the researchers also found that “missing one opportunity to perform the behavior did not materially affect the habit formation process.” In other words, it doesn’t matter if you mess up every now and then. Building better habits is not an all-or-nothing process.

** * Music and Happiness
HEALYOURNESHAMAH (SOUL) WITHSONG!
The weaker and more depressed the music of the soul, the more sluggish the metabolism becomes. This leaves the body less and less able to withstand regular wear and tear, let alone the ravages of illness or injury. But with happy music, positive attitudes, cheerfulness and joy the entire system becomes invigorated and the functioning of all the cells and organs of the body is enhanced, bringing heightened physical immunity, increased stamina and greater wellbeing.
Feed and nourish the cells of your body with the right songs: happy, healing songs! The songs of life! This applies quite literally. Get into the habit of singing happy, inspiring melodies. Try! Experiment! Choose a favorite tune and work with it for five minutes. See what happens. At first your singing may feel a little uninspired, but if it’s a good melody and you are prepared to get into It, you’ll soon see how the melody will start to lift you up, bringing you new vitality, greater optimism and more positive thoughts and feelings. Do this regularly. When you don’t feel like singing yourself, have others sing or play to you, or listen to recordings of your favorite music.

~~ ✰~~ Plant The Garden Of Your Life An excerpt (pages 37 – 38-This Thing Called You by Ernest Holmes): “Life lies open to me, rich, full and abundant. It is important that you maintain a strict censorship over your thinking. Just as you watch your garden that foreign seeds shall not fall into it, producing a growth of undesirable plants, so you must refuse entrance to any thoughts you do not wish to see manifested in your life.
Learn to convert thought patterns of sickness, unhappiness, fear and doubt into patterns which conform to spiritual perfection. Make a picture of yourself as happy and successful. Refuse to entertain contrary ideas.”
Guard well this garden of your mind. It is God’s garden of your soul. It is your Garden of Eden wherin may grow your fondest desires and hopes, blossoming into fulfillment. Or, if your permit, the weeds of destruction, fear and doubt, will choke out the beauty of hope until despair alone remains. Watch carefully, then, this garden of your soul. Plant there only seeds of happiness, of joy, of peace and of good will.
It may be necessary to cultivate your garden to uproot the weeds and straighten out the rows, planting new seeds—new ideas, broader visions and deeper realizations of life. New aspirations must be bedded here, fertilized with the fervor of hope, the conviction of faith, the beauty of wholeness and the quietness of peace. Watch your garden carefully, guard it patiently, waiting for a new harvest—for you shall reap what you have sown. Plant love in your garden. Kindness and sympathy flow from the heart of love, and human goodness…Go often into your garden. God Himself will go forth anew into creation through you.

Once you have the pie chart done, and can see the statements on each side, feels good/feels bad, then ask yourself this important question. “Do I want to live out the results of this percentage pie chart?” I find that a very motivating question, because if I’ve taken the trouble to pie chart something, I usually DON’T want to live with that negative vibration.
Then do a focus wheel on that subject, looking for things that feel good. See the lesson on focus wheels (number 5) if you don’t know how to do that process. to read more

Live your life each day as you would climb a mountain. An occasional glance toward the summit keeps the goal in mind, but many beautiful scenes are to be observed from each new vantage point. Climb slowly, steadily, enjoying each passing moment; and the view from the summit will serve as a fitting climax for the journey.Harold V. Melchert Ways To Create Extra Time
Self-actualizing people enjoy life in general and practically all its aspects, while most other people enjoy only stray moments of triumph … (Maslow, 1999, p. 37) Maslow, A.H. (1999). Towards a Psychology of Being. (3rd ed.). New York, NY: John Wiley & Sons.
************************ Communication via hormones: the heart as a hormonal gland. Another component of the heart-brain communication system was provided by researchers studying the hormonal system. The heart was reclassified as an endocrine gland when, in 1983, a hormone produced and released by the heart called atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) was isolated. This hormone exerts its effect on the blood vessels, on the kidneys, the adrenal glands, and on a large number of regulatory regions in the brain. It was also found that the heart contains a cell type known as ‘intrinsic cardiac adrenergic’’(ICA) cells. Theses cells release noradrenaline and dopamine neurotransmitters,once thought to be produced only by neurons in the CNS.More recently, it was discovered that the heart also secretes oxytocin, commonly referred to as the‘love’ or bonding hormone. In addition to its functions in childbirth and lactation, recent evidence indicates that this hormone is also involved in cognition,tolerance, adaptation, complex sexual and maternal behaviours, learning social cues and the establishment of enduring pair bonds. Concentrations of oxytocin inthe heart were found to be as high as those found in the brain (Cantin & Genest,1986
The Heart, Mind and Spirit Professor Mohamed Omar Salem

~~ …♥… ~~ The heart refuses to be imprisoned; in its first and narrowest pulses, it already tends outward with a vast force, and to immense and innumerable expansions.Ralph Waldo Emerson, “Circles”
Think how often we hear expressions like, “Listen to your heart” or “In your heart you’ll know what to do.” Such advice, when used in a balanced and wise manner, helps us to reduce confusion and make good decisions. Although this intelligence of the heart obviously refers to an intuitive or spiritual type of understanding, it is often connected with sensations felt in the center of the chest, in the general area around the physical heart.
Modern science is finding that the heart has its own memory and intelligence, that it actually plays a role in the feelings of love and intuition that we traditionally associate with the heart. A powerful step in becoming attuned to your heart’s intelligence is simply to be aware of the whole area in the center of your chest-called the heart area-where you may gradually begin to sense a very gentle and soothing warmth.
Whether you are responding to a stressful situation, seeking creative inspiration, or wondering how best to use a period of free time, the following simple four-step exercise can guide you in making optimal choices.
It’s called “Your Heart’s Way.” You can use this exercise in almost any place at any time, and it literally takes only a minute or less.
1.) Pause with confidence. Mentally say to yourself, “I am calm, I am confident.” If you are spiritually inclined, you may instead wish to mentally utter a short prayer or mentally surround yourself with a golden or white light. 2.) Breathe slowly. Allow your breath to become deep, quiet, and regular as your belly expands with each in-breath and contracts with each out-breath. Imagine that you are breathing in and out through the heart area in the center of your chest. 3.) Feel your heart. Take about seven seconds (perhaps longer when possible) and gently focus on your heart area-the whole central portion of your chest. While you do this, be inwardly quiet and very receptive. 4.) Sense your guidance. As you concentrate on the sensations in your heart area, intuit what your heart is communicating. Your heart’s guidance may be very subtle, showing itself in a feeling, thought, image, or inner knowing.As you practice, you will sense your heart’s guidance more easily and quickly. With continued practice, this helpful exercise may feel quite natural and can become habitual. You may even become so attuned to your heart and its guidance that you will live almost every aspect of your life from that beautiful place of love. Keeping a portion of your consciousness constantly attuned to the gentle warmth in your heart area will not interfere with the performance of your daily activities. In fact, it will increase your effectiveness, your productivity, your creativity, and your feelings of peace, love, and joy.

7 Core Principles [1] As science is helping us discover, the physical heart is truly amazing; and even more wondrous is the closely associated intuitive or spiritual heart, which gives us a wealth of subtle information and guides us in making optimal decisions. [2]A keen, intuitive sense is at the very heart of creativity, inner strength, spiritual attunement,and both personal and interpersonal effectiveness. [3]Tuning into your heartfelt intuitive guidance demands a degree of inner calmness and attention as well as sensitivity and openness. [4]Gathering important factual information and seeking wise advice plays a vital role in helping you intelligently follow your heart’s guidance. [5]A powerful step in becoming attuned to your heart’s intelligence is simply to be aware of the entire area in the center of your chest—called the heart area—where you may gradually begin to sense a gentle and soothing warmth. [6]By keeping a portion of your awareness in your heart area, and by sensing your inner guidance in all that you do, you will gradually become skilled in following the steadfast wisdom of your heart’s intelligence. [7]Remember, the more centered you are on the Target of Life, the greater your well-being, the wiser your choices, and the more effective you are in everything you do
• Around the heart is a field of energy 3-5 feet in diameter.
• Every moment of every day your heart is sending signals to your brain instructing it to send what kind of energy to different parts of your body.
• Science has now revealed that atoms are concentrated fields of energy
• If you change the field of energy in which the atom lives, you change the structure of the atom. You can change the field electrically or magnetically.
• Our hearts are the strongetst bioelectrical and magnetic field generators in our body. Our hearts generate stronger electrical fields than out brain.
• Our hearts are 5000 times stronger magnetically than our brain
• The EKG of our heart is 100 times stronger than the EEG, the electrical information of our brains.
• So, it is electrical signals or frequencies generated internally that influence the the Brain on how much and where to send energy to different parts of the body.
The Institute of HeartMath (http://www.heartmath.org) shares fascinating understandings of the human heart as explored in more than 20 years of its research. The ‘Did you know’ facts are lesser-known gems of information to enlighten curiosity on how your own thoughts and emotions are affecting yourself and others.
HeartMath Research Director Rollin McCraty, Ph.D., says, “It’s important to take a pause and really consider what our emotions are contributing to our environment and to other people. Our research and its applications can help people create a positive emotion-based environment that has real effects on physiology.”
McCraty said that the true nature of human emotion is one of care and love. He said HeartMath and other research shows that by focusing on these core heart-felt emotions, it can enhance one’s connection with others, and that this connection extends far beyond the individual.

Passage below came from above site. You and Your Energy: Key Points
Our mental and emotional diets determine our energy levels, health and well-being much more than most people realize.
Look at life as an energy economy game.
Each day, ask, “Are my energy expenditures – actions, reactions, thoughts and feelings – productive or nonproductive?
During the course of my day, have I accumulated more stress or more peace?
Keeping an asset/deficit balance sheet even for a few days will give you an extremely clear picture of where and how you’re adding to your energy account and where and how you’re overdrawing it.
When we consciously evoke core heart feelings, we nourish our bodies at every level. Like quantum nutrients, core heart feelings keep our cells regenerating.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷbookmarkThe Heart’s Intuitive Intelligence: A path to personal, social and global coherenceVIDEO The Spiritual Heart — is in a way a little like a smart phone, invisibly connecting us to a large network of information. It is through an unseen energy that the heart emits that humans are profoundly connected to all living things. The energy of the heart literally links us to each other. Every person’s heart contributes to a ‘collective field environment.’ This short video explains the importance of this connection and how we each add to this collective energy field. The energetic field of the heart even connects us with the earth itself.
The heart is in a constant two-way dialogue with the brain. But, McCraty explains, the heart and cardiovascular system are sending far more signals to the brain than the brain is sending to the heart. Full Article Speaking from the Heart Mind of the Placebo Real Drugs for Imaginary Diseases

For the past decade Dr. Dominique Surel has been advising individuals in making intuitive decisions. Through her strategy work, which involves talking to high-level decision-makers, she noticed that most of these individuals rely on their intuition, even though they may not consciously realize it, or if they do, may not be able to articulate exactly what this means. She then came up with the concept that if individuals could understand the nature of intuition, learn how to develop this innate skill, and use it in conjunction with the left-brain functions, this would create an extremely powerful decision-making tool.
After more research which included studying scientific articles and abstracts on the subject, Dr. Dominique Surel developed her own methodology to teach the art and science of intuitive thinking. The added value of this training is the sharpening of the mind and a significant increase in the level of creativity.
For over 22 years, Gregg Braden has searched high mountain villages, remote monasteries and forgotten texts to uncover their timeless secrets. Combining his discoveries with the best science of today, his original research crosses the traditional boundaries of science, history, and religion offering fresh insights into ancient mysteries.
The Institute of HeartMath is an internationally recognized nonprofit research and education organization dedicated to helping people reduce stress, self-regulate emotions and build energy and resilience for healthy, happy lives. Personal coherence, also known as psychophysiological coherence, refers to the synchronization of our physical, mental and emotional systems. It can be measured by our heart-rhythm patterns: The more balanced and smooth they are, the more in sync, or coherent, we are.
Personal coherence, also known as psychophysiological coherence, refers to the synchronization of our physical, mental and emotional systems. It can be measured by our heart-rhythm patterns: The more balanced and smooth they are, the more in sync, or coherent, we are.
Global coherence refers to the mental, physical, emotional and spiritual well-being of the greater community of human beings, while acting in concert with their own hearts, each other and nation to nation in harmony with our living planet. HeartMath believes coherence on a grand scale is highly achievable when large numbers of people focus their heart intelligence on a common goal.
By using your heart as your compass, you can see more clearly which direction to go to stop self-defeating behavior. If you take just one mental or emotional habit that really bothers or drains you and apply heart intelligence to it, you’ll see a noticeable difference in your life.Doc Childre and Howard Martin

I define happiness as a kind of resourcefulness. It’s a sense of resiliency and the ability to meet things without being defined by them. It’s a source of profound strength inside ourselves, which we don’t always realize we have. Also, happiness is our connection to one another, so we don’t feel so cut off and alone.Sharon Salzberg
Viewpoint Of A Life Of A Happy Woman Keith Garrick
I am a vibrational being and everything is vibrational. I now experience outrageous JOY! I see beauty, harmony, health, wealth all about me. I touch wealth, excellence, sweetness. I taste sweetness, deliciousness, wholeness. I feel balance, energy, happiness, enthusiasm, passion, triumph. I smell cleanliness, freshness, sweetness, spiciness. I hear harmony, melody, beauty, softness, power.
I now release resistance, and consciously allow my connection to “Source” more of the time, being mindful of the connection.
I am the deliberate creator of my own reality.
I ask through my attention, my desiring, feeling it in my being – and oral or written words are unnecessary I desire this, I adore this, and I appreciate this. I expect the best. I am happy with what I am and with what I have, while at the same time eager for more
These are, indeed, affirmations, but many of them are “statements” about what is true in life and “declarations” about what she will do and believe in. All those are necessary to form a clear philosophy and to create a strong sense of an ability to create what one wants in life.It is physically true that there are electrical impulses our bodies and minds run on. Scientifically, all electricity has “waves”, which cause “vibrations” – and it is proven that those waves can have an effect 13 feet away with regard to heart entrainment. No one knows the limits. But here the usefulness of this is that if we are cheery we’ll tend to get better results (as our brain works better and we are looking for what works) than if we are “vibrating at a low frequency”, a euphemism perhaps for something akin to pessimism or hopelessness.In the latter case, our brain is looking for dangers and more focused on protection than opportunities, plus it is proven that it doesn’t function as well when resources/energy is drawn away to deal with the supposed danger.“Source” is a symbolic term that is used in various ways. Here it is referring mostly to the higher brain within oneself.Keith Garrick

textileRef:1757038336599dc9e547434:linkStartMarker:“quoteThe old spiritual paradigm focuses on tearing things down, whereas the new era of spirituality invites a more miraculous depth of transformation by building yourself up. Whether the focus is on dissolving illusion, duality, the ego, or unconscious belief patterns, there is no way to tear anything down without ripping your innocence apart in the process. Instead of having anything to resolve, process, maintain, or remember, it is the activity of building yourself up that raises your vibration to bring your highest qualities to life. This includes loving what arises, viewing life through the eyes of beauty, and celebrating the success of what you are doing right in any given moment. When building yourself up replaces any tendency to tear anything down, you will no longer manufacture erroneous symptoms to overcome. As this occurs, you free yourself from believing that spiritual evolution can be earned, when it exists as a truth you are free to remember by declaring it so. This is the way of heart-centered consciousness. “ Matt Kahn”:https://www.facebook.com/mattkahn site

This Collection of Long Music Playlists is Perfect for your daily Meditation and Relaxation. A lot of music out there for meditation and relaxation is too busy and distracting.The music from these videos is light, beautiful, with calming sounds (some with binaural brainwaves and nature sounds) that does not distract you from focusing on what you want to achieve. A Daily 1 Hour Instrumental Playlist can be used for background music with the following intentions:
Meditation and Healing: The music we create is perfect for Deepak Chopra meditations, buddhist meditation, zen meditation, mindfulness meditation, Eckhart Tolle meditation. Influences used in this type of music are mainly from Japanese meditation music, Indian meditation music, Native American music and African Meditation Music. Some benefits from using it are: It will cleanse the Chakras, open the Third Eye and increase Transcendental Meditation skills. The work of Byron Katie, Sedona Method, Silva Method and the Secret highlights the fact that healing can occur through the use of mind and being in the now. Healing Meditation can be practised using this music for best results.
Yoga and Massage: The music is really useful in yoga for beginners, yoga exercises, yoga chants influenced by Indian songs, African music, soothing music that has a calming effect.
Relaxation and Spa: The light peaceful sound of our music can really be useful after a long hard day of work to unwind and relax. Imagine the spa music, nature sounds, rain sounds, light piano. Easy listening instruments are used in these tracks for ultimate relaxation.
Binaural Mind States: Many of the tracks include Binaural Brain Waves that can be used to enter different mind frequencies. For instance it can be used for studying music, revision for when you need to be creative, focused and have good concentration. Many people find Brainwave entrainment useful for deep sleep to help you fall asleep easily, and also have enough rest to start the day fresh. As mentioned before, Binaural Brainwaves can be used for meditation, study music, creativity, deep sleep and many more benefits. Many mothers use it for baby music, lullabies to help baby sleep.
Note from Phil Newton’s Blog: Requirements Paper Based – The main reasons for this is that I find it much easier to modify a paper based system “on the fly”. The other main reason is that I find paper to be more rewarding to use when ticking things off. It also means I don’t need to switch the computer on first thing in the morning, which would stop the “I’ll just check my email” phase that can last hours.
Printable – As much fun as it was to draw all that stuff, it really needs to be printable so I can stick it in a binder and save myself some time.
Bigger System – Ideally it should cover my long term goals as well as my weekly ones, and also my affirmations and intentions. These items should be easy to access so that I don’t overlook them. There should also be the potential to add slots for my 30 day trials.
Points Tracking – Points tracking worked well in previous versions of my progress tracker, so I’ll be keeping it.
Space for Reflection – There should be space to write down what worked and what didn’t work, which I should be able to put in a stack and review when my monthly/quarterly goal sessions come around. There’s not much point in writing these things down if I won’t be using them.
Weekly Goal Tracking – There should be a space to monitor the progress of my top three goals.
Weekly Review Checklist – The weekly sheet should have a checklist for completing my GTD weekly review. This is more of a system to help me get into the habit of performing a weekly review.

Well-known physician and author Christiane Northrup strongly encourages gratitude of all types. She reminds us, “No matter what’s going on in the world, the economy, or the news, you have the power within you to create the biochemistry of gratitude right now.” Dr. Northrup explains that when you hold feelings of thankfulness for at least 15 to 20 seconds, a variety of subtle and beneficial physiological changes take place in your body:
Levels of the stress hormones cortisol and norepinephrine decrease, producing a cascade of beneficial metabolic changes, such as an enhanced immune system.
Coronary arteries relax, thus increasing the blood supply to your heart.
Heart rhythm becomes more harmonious, positively affecting your mood and all bodily organs.
Breathing becomes deeper, thus raising the oxygen level of your tissues.
So spend some time feeling gratitude for your body, for your family and friends, for all that is wonderful in your life. It will pay off in better health!

** quoteExperiencing and expressing gratitude is an important part of any spiritual practice. It opens the heart and activates positive emotion centers in the brain. Regular practice of gratitude can change the way our brain neurons fire into more positive automatic patterns. The positive emotions we evoke can soothe distress and broaden our thinking patterns so we develop a larger and more expansive view of our lives. Gratitude is an emotion of connectedness, which reminds us we are part of a larger universe with all living things.piece written by by Melanie Greenberg, Ph.D. who is is a clinical psychologist, life coach, and expert on life change, health psychology, integrative & behavioral medicine, chronic stress and pain, who has published her own research in academic journals.

There are many wonderful ways to begin affirmations…Here are some ideas for starters
Write your own♥ affirmations:
Write what is true for you. Decide which words best reflect your goal/s. Your words need to be emotionally charged and true for you. Have fun experimenting and creating your own affirmations. Here are some affirmation starters to get you going:
When we need to do some work in a particular area, we can affirm any spiritual quality with one word. For example, when we feel restless, we can talk to our body. It will take instructions. We can give the body a one-word command such as “relax,” “harmony,” “balance,” or “rhythm.” We can talk to our mind. Eventually it will listen. We can think, “patience,” “peace,” or “poise.” When someone is giving us a hard time, we can affirm, “understanding,” “compassion,” or “forgiveness.” Dr. Phillip Shapiro

I’m duplicating from some busy threads I’ve posted. Affirmations are all about repetition(: AGoodVibeEnthusiast
I will make happiness a worthy goal, for achieving it is entirely within my power.
I will use my feelings to tell me when things aren’t working for me
I will let go of what I cannot change: other people, the past, the future.
I will believe that all people are equally valuable and worthy by virtue of being human, and that makes me valuable and worthy. I will accept that I don’t have to be perfect, I don’t have to meet anyone else’s expectations or needs to be a worthy and lovable person. And they don’t have to meet mine.
I will focus on what I can change—my thoughts, beliefs, expectations, and behavior, which will change how I feel
I will not judge others (or myself) because it is harsh and destructiveWhen we attach value to those perceptions (better than/worse than) and rank our comparisons, we become judgmental. Even when I win the comparison contest, I find I’ve lost, just because I played
I will appreciate the moment.
I will focus on what I have so that I experience abundance, remembering that unhappy people focus on what they want, and they feel deprived.

** You simply will not be the same person two months from now after consciously giving thanks each day for the abundance that exists in your life. And you will have set in motion an ancient spiritual law: the more you have and are grateful for, the more will be given you.Sarah Ban Breathnach on giving thanks for 2 months
** If you will buy a new notebook, and call it your Book of Positive Aspects, and spend 10 minutes each day writing positive aspects about your home, your body, your work, your relationships…If you will wake up every morning acknowledging that you have re-emerged into the physical and that today you will look for reasons to feel good…And if you will pay attention to the way you are feeling, and utilize the process of pivoting,it is our absolute promise to you, that — within 30 days — you will see such a dramatic turn of events in your life experience, that you will not believe you are the same person.whatanicewebsiteAbe inspired writing positive aspects for 30 days for 10 minutes a day
Indeed, it’s quite simple: We can harness the brain’s plasticity by training our brain to make positive patterns more automatic. When we practice looking for and being more aware of positive aspects of life, we fight off the brain’s natural tendency to scan for and spot the negatives. Naturally we bring ourselves into better balance.
diagram Scan for the 3 daily positives. At the end of each day, make a list of three specific good things that happened that day and reflect on what caused them to happen. The good things could be anything — bumping into an old friend, a positive remark from someone at work, a pretty sunset. Celebrating small wins also has a proven effect of powering motivation and igniting joy. As you record your good things daily, the better you will get and feel. At the end of the day, make a list of 3 positives which occurred. whole article link ► The Happiness Effect ► You May Also Enjoy These Links: Happiness Diary —Keith Garrick [wonderful site] LIFEMANAGEMENTALLIANCE -CREATETHELIFEYOULOVE Gratitude Journal —Keith Garrick 101 reasons To Journal

Often we discover what we love to do in life by living…being spontaneous…
By knowing what you enjoy you are consciously creating a life of your dreams.
No one is saying the tasks we often in engage in are 100% fun…and certainly not all of the time. Though, the more we are in touch with what makes us happy…the more we can be responsible for our own happiness and somehow thread them (whenever possible) through our daily life(:
Take time to recall what you enjoy. It’s a good thing to know(: Appreciating˚

Rules for Being Human
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷYou will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it will be yours for the entire time around.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷYou will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called “life.” Each day in this school, you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like some of the lessons, or think them irrelevant and stupid.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷThere are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is the process of trial and error, experimentation. The “failed” experiments are as much a part of the process as experiments that ultimately “work.”
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷA lesson is repeated until learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can then go to the next lesson.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ“There” is no better than “here.” When your “there” has become “here,” you will simply obtain another “there” that will, again, look better than “here.”
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷOthers are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷWhat you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need.. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷYour answers lie inside you. The answer’s to life’s questions lie inside you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷYou will forget all this. – Anonymous

** * Scientists have discovered that the heart is far more complex than we’d ever imagined. We now have evidence that the heart sends us emotional and intuitive signals to help govern our lives. Instead of simply pumping blood, it directs and aligns many systems in the body so that they can function in harmony. And although the heart is in constant communication with the brain, we now know it makes many of its decisions

** quoted from their site: Cozi is a free online organizer that helps families manage crazy schedules, track shopping lists and to do lists, organize household chores, stay in communication and share memories—all in one place.
** People have accused us of being fanatically family focused, and you know what? They’re right. From our very beginning in 2005, we’ve been all about families. When we started Cozi, we were just a small group of Microsoft and Amazon veterans—all with kids of our own—looking for a way to balance our busy family schedules and create more harmony at home. So we pooled our collective knowledge and experience to create something special. Something that would make it easy and fun for families to juggle everything they have to do. Not just our families, but families everywhere.
** We know every family is different, but we all have one thing in common: we’re crazy-busy. Cozi is designed to make it easier to manage everything we have to do. Cozi tracks appointments and activities, simplifies shopping lists and chores, and makes it easy for everyone to communicate with each other. Even when schedules change, Cozi is there making sure all the moving pieces fit together at the end of the day. When we make life easier for you and your family, we’re happy. We invite you to simplify family life with Cozi.
** 60 min silent timer ~~ ✰~~ There are some great timers already posted on Bmindful/Internet,though this one appealed to my inner child(: 30 sec timer [also makes a great auditory metronome]
…….Use an audible second-ticking clock or a metronome stroking at 60 beats per minute. Assume a comfortable position in a chair or a bed, and achieve a self-hypnotic state. After getting into a deeply relaxed state, your heartbeat will entrain itself to the slow rhythm of 60 beats per minute. Concentrate on deep rhythmic breathing and clear your mind to allow your brain waves to also slow down.
…….You can memorize and say the following statements to yourself or you can put them on a cassette tape for playback when you’re relaxed.
….Now begin using the following suggestions on yourself: 1) I am feeling good. I am feeling wonderful.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 2) The beats are slowing now — slower – slower.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 3) The time between each beat is seeming longer and longer.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 4) I am relaxed and I have lots of time.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 5) Time is only relative to what I want it to be. ~~ ✰~~ 6) Each stroke is further and further apart now.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 7) There is lots of time.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 8) I feel so relaxed and at peace with myself.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 9) Time is slowing down.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 10) Each beat of the metronome feels distantly separated. ……Repeat the above suggestions or similar ones over and over to yourself until you “feel” that each click of the metronome is spaced between 2 – 4 minutes apart. Bring into mental focus the material you want to review and say the following:
** * ~~ ✰~~ 1) I have plenty of time to review this.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 2) Every time I do this, I improve myself and my performance.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 3) I am relaxed and taking my time.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 4) The more I practice, the easier it becomes.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 5) I am feeling good and experiencing no hurry.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 6) I have all the time that I need to accomplish this review.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 7) I am completing my review. …….At this suggestive state of mind, you can review any material you wish in a matter of seconds over and over again. By being relaxed and saying to yourself that you have lots of time, your mind does indeed ‘create’ lots of time.
** * ~~ ✰~~ You work at optimal levels of efficiency when you are relaxed and enjoying yourself.
** * ~~ ✰~~ The more you practice this exercise, the easier it will become. Bring yourself out of the self-hypnotic state by counting backwards from 10 to 1 and then progressively awaken. Always give yourself a post-hypnotic suggestion that the next time that you want to experience self-hypnotic time distortion, it will be easier and faster to undergo. You can even create a tape for yourself with the above suggestions. mind-course.com

That is part of the paradox of success described in the book of the same title by John R. O’Neil. He says that the belief that every moment of our time must be somehow valuable and productive is actually pretty harmful. When you give yourself open-ended time, you can “create space for your seldom-heard desires, needs, and notions to assert themselves, and you begin creating a model for a different, more friendly relationship with time.” Robert Fulgham ✰。˚ ˚ღ。 ˛˚ 。✰˚* ˚ ★ღ ˚ 。✰ *~ QuoteAlmost all needs, capacities, and talents can be satisfied in a variety of ways.Maslow, A.H. (1999). Towards a Psychology of Being. (3rd ed.). New York, NY: John Wiley & Sons.
QuoteGrowth takes place when the next step forward is subjectively more delightful, more joyous, more intrinsically satisfying than the previous gratification with which we have become familiar and even bored; the only way we can ever know what is right for us is that it feels better subjectively than any alternative. The new experience validates itself rather than by any outside criterion. It is self-justifying, self-validating. (Maslow, 1999, p. 53).Maslow, A.H. (1999). Towards a Psychology of Being. (3rd ed.).

QuoteAuthentic selfhood can be defined in part as being able to hear the impulse-voices within oneself, i.e., to know what one really wants or doesn’t want, what one is fit for and what one is not fit for.Maslow, A.H.

~ Affirmations As I choose my thoughts, I choose my life. Every day I have the option to make choices that support my well-being. I choose to be healthy every minute of my life. I always have the choice to re-create my reality. I always have the power to choose the most optimistic outlook. Each decision I make presents wondrous new possibilities. Every moment of my life is full of choices My peaceful mind results in wellness and happiness in all areas of my life.
Optimism is a strategy for making a better future. Because unless you believe that the future can be better, you are unlikely to step up and take responsibility for making it so. If you assume there is no hope, you guarantee there will be no hope. ~Norm Chomsky
quoteYesterday is gone, tomorrow has not arrived, and I lie in an eternal present filled with an everlasting good. There is nothing unhappy or morbid in my consciousness. I have no fear of yesterday nor do I anticipate tomorrow with anything other than enthusiastic expectation. Everything good in my experience shall create my future. I have no fear in looking backward or forward, but realize the eternal day in which I now live. Today is big with hope fulfilled, with love and life well-lived. Tomorrow will provide its own blessings.Ernest Holmes

The world you desired can be won. It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.Ayn Rand
There is a basic law that like attracts like. Negative thinking definitely attracts negative results. Conversely, if a person habitually thinks optimistically and hopefully, his positive thinking sets in motion creative forces – and success, instead of eluding him, flows toward him. William Wordsworth
Learn to shake yourself loose from what the world believes is the only reality.Neville Goddard

some quotes from BUILDINGSELF-ESTEEM Second Edition By L.S. Barksdale
which help with detachment…
Comparing myself with another’s personality, conduct or accomplishments as a gauge of my worth is absolutely meaningless.(No two people have had the same heredity, Inner Knowing, and total life experience.)
No one can possibly put himself in another’s place as a valid point of reference, for no one else in the entire world has the same degree of awareness.
I am not my awareness—I am that which is aware.
I am not my mind—my mind is but the human computer that receives and evaluates the data of my five senses, my instincts and intuition
I am a nonphysical essence—a unique and precious being, inviolable, invincible and eternal, ever doing the best I can, ever growing in wisdom and love.

~~ ✰~~ Morning Affirmations by Janice Taylor
Today is a new day and each new day presents a fresh start.
Each new day offers a new beginning overflowing with possibility and opportunity.
Today, I greet the day with fresh eyes and new ideas.
Today, there is no past, there is no future; there is only this moment.
In this Now, I give myself permission to release toxicity from every level of my energy field.
Abundance flows through my day; an abundance of love, happiness and positive energy.
This abundance, this positive energy allows me to step into my day, into my work, into my mission, into every word and action—moment to moment.
I am focused, excited, energized and determined.
I am creative.
I am grateful, fully appreciating all the love in my life – the abundance.

** The things I create are even better than I imagine them to be.
** * from The Love Foundation transcript of ‘Embracing Change [ With Love] above:
Harold W. Becker shares we are such amazing beings of infinite capacity and potential. Our boundless imagination, coupled with our wondrous will, allows us to bring our ideas into outer reality. Through our thoughts and feelings, we can literally create and experience that which we dream of in our heart of hearts. With patience and trust we manifest whatever we truly seek to experience on this grand adventure.
He continues whether we realize it or not, we create this way every moment. Yet, so often we become mired in habit and routine and stop being present with our imagination and the wisdom of our heart. Instead, we allow outmoded and outdated beliefs to take over rather than being aware of our creative choice. The unquestioned stream of mental thoughts, subtle notions of our emotional disposition, and very often, the outer suggestions of others, begin to dictate our identity, our actions and reactions.
That is, until something comes along to awaken us. This is frequently in the form of an accident, illness, unexpected event or circumstances that instantly disrupts our routine. If we are deeply rooted in habit, mentally or emotionally focused in the past or future, or simply unaware of our own creative spirit, this experience is usually met with great resistance and defiance by our outer personality or ego. The defenses, justification, victimhood and righteousness are often our immediate reaction to the fear and doubt that comes instantly to the surface. We become afraid of the change that has already happened.
How would our lives be different if we chose to be present in each moment knowing that change is constant and the very nature of life itself? What would happen if we actually embraced change as a wonderful opportunity to restore our creative capacity and begin anew with love?
Life is fluid, expansive and recreating itself every moment; we need only pay attention to the natural world to realize this. From the cycle of the seasons to the ever flowing rivers, the ceaseless life giving energy of the sun, the acorn becoming the mighty oak, or the rhythmic pulse of our own heartbeat, nature understands and embraces change. No two moments are exactly the same and love is forever present.
Always remember who you are a beautiful and outrageously creative being capable of manifesting a world filled with peace, joy and unconditional love. Now is the perfect moment to imagine a new potential and choose it for yourself and the world around you.

QUOTE by Virginia Satir (American Psychologist and Educator, 1916-1988) “I am Me. In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me. Everything that comes out of me is authentically mine, because I alone chose it — I own everything about me: my body, my feelings, my mouth, my voice, all my actions, whether they be to others or myself. I own my fantasies, my dreams, my hopes, my fears. I own my triumphs and successes, all my failures and mistakes. Because I own all of me, I can become intimately acquainted with me. By so doing,I can love me and be friendly with all my parts. I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other aspects that I do not know — but as long as I am friendly and loving to myself, I can courageously and hopefully look for solutions to the puzzles and ways to find out more about me…..However I look and sound, whatever I say and do, and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time is authentically me. If later some parts of how I looked, sounded, thought, and felt turn out to be unfitting, I can discard that which is unfitting, keep the rest, and invent something new for that which I discarded. I can see, hear, feel, think, say, and do. I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be productive, and to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me. I own me, and therefore, I can engineer me.

The modalities of awakened doing are acceptance, enjoyment, and enthusiasm. Each one represents a certain vibrational frequency of consciousness. You need to be vigilant to make sure that one of them operates whenever you are engaged in doing anything at all – from the most simple task to the most complex. If you are not in the state of either acceptance, enjoyment, or enthusiasm, look closely and you will find that you are creating suffering for yourself and others. EckhartTolle
The Universe is abundant with everything that you want. It’s not testing you. It’s benevolently providing for you. But you are the orchestrater. You are the definer, and you do it through your joyous anticipation. If there is an emotion that you are wanting to foster, that would serve you very, very well, it is positive expectation. It is excited anticipation.Abe threadAcceptance Enthusiasm & Enjoyment
an excerpts to come from the above link: ….we’ve been nursed on the belief that time is one of those few utterly reliable and objective things in life – it is also strangely empowering to think that the very phenomenon depicted as the unforgiving dictator of life is something we might be able to shape and benefit from.
“We construct the experience of time in our minds, so it follows that we are able to change the elements we find troubling – whether it’s trying to stop the years racing past, or speeding up time when we’re stuck in a queue, trying to live more in the present, or working out how long ago we last saw our old friends. Time can be a friend, but it can also be an enemy. The trick is to harness it, whether at home, at work, or even in social policy, and to work in line with our conception of time. Time perception matters because it is the experience of time that roots us in our mental reality. Time is not only at the heart of the way we organize life, but the way we experience it” Claudia Hammond

Excerpts from Managing Time Pressure and Overwhelm-HEARTMATH What Is Overwhelm? In this fast-paced age of the Internet we hear that every minute counts and speed and efficiency are critical. Day after day, week after week, year after year, all this pressure to succeed, achieve, meet goals, make a contribution begins to build up inside of us until one day we are locked in the throes of overwhelm, numb to its debilitating effects on our bodies and quality of life. Information overload – from the media, our jobs, Madison Avenue, junk mail, e-mail, the telephone, political campaigns, charity campaigns, religious campaigns and so much more – often jumbles our thoughts, makes us forgetful and frays our nerves. Overcare, the sense that you have to take care of everyone because no one else will or can, ambition that leads many to burn the candle at both ends, and performance anxiety stemming from the fear that not doing more will cost you your job, are but a few of the byproducts of overwhelm.
Many people experience relentless overwhelm every day and fret over how they can get though everything they have to do. They trudge on because they believe they must and that things will never change. Chronic overwhelm is one of the major causes of anxiety and anxiety disorders. When you’re overwhelmed, your mind overloads with all that’s going on. It takes a toll on your nervous, immune and hormonal systems, and left unattended likely will produce cycles of anxiety, fatigue and temporary despair. People on this kind of overload are more susceptible to disease and they age faster
What we know today about what the heart knows is truly exciting and the implications are great. Relying on a variety of data from numerous studies and experiments, particularly heart-rhythm-pattern measurements, IHM’s findings point to the human heart as playing a key role in the intuitive process, and a recent study concludes the heart actually receives intuitive information faster than the brain – by a second or slightly more. This would seem to attribute some independent intelligence to the heart: In fact, the concept of a “heart brain” is widely accepted today”
It has been established that the heart has a powerful electromagnetic field and its own complex nervous system and circuitry that generates up to an estimated 60 times the electrical amplitude of the brain. The electromagnetic signal our heart rhythms produce actually can be measured in the brain waves of people around us. It is no wonder that the findings by researchers at HeartMath and elsewhere conclude the heart has its own organized intelligence network enabling it to act independently, learn, remember and produce feelings – all attributes which, until recently, were nearly universally held to be solely in the brain’s dominion.

~~ ✰~~ Making Love To Time by Tara Mohr Yesterday, I was listening to a beautiful interview with the late Irish poet John O’Donahue.
He said, “One of the biggest problems of modern life is that time has become the enemy.” He spoke about how so many of us struggle with time: we struggle with how much we have, we struggle to fit things in, we complain about the lack of it.
Yes, it’s problematic that the pace and expectations of modern life leave us without time for white space, for reflection, for downtime.
Yes, “lack of time” is an ever-convenient, oft-used excuse for not following one’s passion, not doing one’s art, not tending to their spiritual lives.
But until I heard John O’Donahue say, “One of the biggest problems of modern life is that time has become the enemy,” I hadn’t realized the depth of the problem. When you set yourself up in that oppositional relationship to time, you are cutting yourself off from the very flow of life. to read article in its entirety

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The beauty of yesterday is lovely…The passionate dreams for the future… are stupendous…as long as the past,future or what we perceive as the present do not make us sideswipe the possibilities of our today.
Do you know some people cringe when they see the affirmation which is worded … TODAY IS THEBESTDAY OF MY LIFE ?
Why do you think that is? Could it be it is only our joyous memories which keep us afloat? Could it be because a projection of what we don’t want to happen is feared and will be experienced today? Could it be those dreams of our future are so enticing that today could never match up to our minds eye of the future? … a combo maybe …or something different beyond this “simplistic” dialogue?
What if we started today with the idea…that this is that best day… It is simply because as individuals we say so…and the beauty we have not yet defined will reveal itself to us. It will not discount the gratitude and appreciation of yesterday…or the enthusiasm for tomorrow…or even the avoidance of areas which require our attention. Here’s to today.

** * excerpt of articleWant to be Happy. Stop Trying To be perfectThe root of the word courage is cor — the Latin word for heart. In one of its earliest forms, the word courage had a very different definition than it does today. Courage originally meant to speak one’s mind by telling all one’s heart.
** * excerpt of articleOver time, this definition has changed, and, today, courage is more synonymous with being heroic. Heroics are important and we certainly need heroes, but I think we’ve lost touch with the idea that speaking honestly and openly about who we are, about what we’re feeling, and about our experiences (good and bad) is the definition of courage.

** * excerpt of articleEmotional Acceptancewhen you accept a negative emotion, it tends to lose its destructive power. This is surprising and counter intuitive to many people, but if you think about it for a while, you will see the logic of this approach. Swimmers who are caught in an undertow and feel themselves being dragged out to sea often panic and begin to swim against the current with all their might. Often, they fatigue, cramp and drown. To survive, such a swimmer should do the opposite—let go. Let the current take him out to sea. Within a few hundred yards the current will weaken and the swimmer can swim around and back to shore. The same with a powerful emotion: pushing against it is futile and possibly dangerous; but if you accept the emotion, it will run its course while allowing you to run yours.

Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.William Arthur Ward
That is part of the paradox of success described in the book of the same title by John R. O’Neil. He says that the belief that every moment of our time must be somehow valuable and productive is actually pretty harmful. When you give yourself open-ended time, you can “create space for your seldom-heard desires, needs, and notions to assert themselves, and you begin creating a model for a different, more friendly relationship with time.”
Often we discover what we love to do in life by living…being spontaneous…
By knowing what you enjoy you are consciously creating a life of your dreams.
No one is saying the tasks we often in engage in are 100% fun…and certainly not all of the time. Though, the more we are in touch with what makes us happy…the more we can be responsible for our own happiness and somehow thread them (whenever possible) through our daily life(:
Take time to recall what you enjoy. It’s a good thing to know(: AGoodVibeEnthusiast

** excerpt of article[article excerpt-Awakening Genius by Thomas Armstrong] Joy – If genius has any core component, it is probably the experience of joy. Ask some of the great minds of our time to explain what motivates them in their work and generally you will not hear them talk about pay checks or even the Nobel Prize (though these certainly have their allure). More often they may speak somewhat mystically of an experience that sounds like joy. Young children may not be as articulate, but if they could speak about what motivates them in their most passionate play experiences they would probably speak of ‘o (they speak of it anyway through their sparkling eyes, their bouncing bodies, and their squeals of delight). As Piaget once wrote: “On seeing a baby joyfully watching the movements of his feet, one has the impression of the joy felt by a god in directing from a distance the movement of the stars.”
** Joy is something mysterious that cooks up from deep inside of us when a new connection has been made, a new insight obtained, a new feat accomplished, or a skill mastered. Such joy can be witnessed in the brilliant grin of a high school student who witnesses the invention that he’s been toiling on for the past several weeks finally work for the first time. joy is in the 7th grader who twirls across the stage in the school musical. joy shows itself in the lst grader who jumps up and down after reading his first story. The neurochemistry of the joy of teaming is still unclear-it might have something to do with neuronal connections stimulating a release of neuropeptides into the nervous system. But however it occurs, its importance cannot be underestimated. Without joy, learning is soda pop without the fizzle – flat and tasteless.
** “So much of what goes on in our society works to pressure people into meeting rigid expectations for behavior, learning, and development. The reality, though, is that individuals grow and learn in remarkably different ways. When we allow people to develop according to their natural rhythms, and learn in their own unique way, we make it possible for them to achieve a sense of meaning in their lives, and enable them to share their remarkable gifts with the broader culture, thus making the world a better place in which to live” by Thomas Armstrong – http://institute4learning.com/http://institute4learning.com/

BRANDNEWTHREADCREATEDFOR A BRANDNEWDAY
I have found it is vital to start my day with a fresh start…remembering my values and refreshing them. It makes it so much easier to experience the world and allow what is important for me to permeate a slice of what works for me-mode.
Starting fresh (regularly) assists in my growth, and less likely to be influenced by anything which goes against basic values. It assists with detachment from the world…so I can reintegrate myself in a world which houses diverse personalities and ideas that others want us to own…when they do not align with ones beliefs/values
I wish I could find the source of a particular tool I use… It is using the word DISCONNECT …when desiring a quick detach from a person, place or thing which ‘works its way into my psyche’ and I choose to disallow its presence…quickly. I imagine its like Silva’s cancel cancel-method…though I’m receiving some great results with it & thought I’d share.I thank the source who posted it on the webI’m appreciative of the assistance

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. Set yourself a definite goal. 2. Quit running yourself down.
3. Stop thinking of all the reasons why you cannot be successful and instead think of all the reasons why you can.
4. Trace your attitudes back through your childhood and discover where you first got the idea that you could not be successful if that is the way you’ve been thinking.
5. Change the image you have of yourself by writing out a description of the person you would like to be.
6. Act the part of the successful person you have decided to become.

peace & harmony cardsby Wayne Dyer
If you meet someone whose soul is not aligned with yours, send them love and move along. (I align myself with people who support my growth.)
One of the highest places you can get to is to be independent of the good opinions of others. (What other people think of me is none of my business.)
You can’t go around being what everyone wants you to be, living your life through other people’s rules, and expect to be happy and have inner peace. (I live my life in my own way.)
No one can create negativity or stress within you. Only you can do that by virtue of how you process your world. (I create the world that I live in.)
I fill myself with love, and I send that love out into the world. How others treat me is their path; how I react is mine.(Love is my gift to the world.)

quoteThe modalities of awakened doing are acceptance, enjoyment, and enthusiasm.

If you are not in the state of either acceptance, enjoyment, or enthusiasm, look closely and you will find that you are creating suffering for yourself and others.EckhartTo
4/10/17 Had a strong invigorated dose of lemon water!
Thoughts now of having an amazing late breakfast and prepare a wonderful lunch for my work day.
~~~~~~
followed through with those thoughts and (for me) waited a bit too long for 1st meal of the day... So I created a brunch out of part of tonight's dinner (citrus salmon plus my breakfast hard boiled egg. ) My selfcare felt more complete... (after I took the bite out of my own hunger...and could think/feel better...) I prepared the same thing for my hubby. I placed it on a gold shiny charger plate....and put a paper-plate on top lol. We create our own parties around here(:
Now to prepare a dynamic lunch, I won't share the menu... I will say I better get to cooking.. and they are part of my absolute healthy-favorites. Mouth starting to water, so this thread served its Mon morning purpose for me(:
Though...needing some foodie dessert 1st(:

Many things go into my ideas of self-care...and I'm allowing space for more to show up(:
I would be remiss if I didn't mention:
affirmations/intentions/gratitude list, awareness of energy, & last but not least prayerful affirming unattached to my results, because I'm believing all is better than I can know or plan alone.

HEALTHY MIND PLATTERSeven daily essential mental activities to optimize brain matter and create well-being
It essentially discusses balance.
Here is part
“mental nutrients” that your brain and relationships need to function at their best. By engaging every day in each of these servings, you promote integration in your life and enable your brain to coordinate and balance its activities. These essential mental activities strengthen your brain's internal connections and your connections with other people and the world around you.
We're not suggesting specific amounts of time for this recipe for a healthy mind, as each individual is different, and our needs change over time too. The point is to become aware of the full spectrum of essential mental activities, and as with essential nutrients, make sure that at least every day we are bringing the right ingredients into our mental diet, even if for just a bit of time. Just as you wouldn't eat only pizza every day for days on end, we shouldn't just live on focus time alone with little time for sleep. The key is balancing the day with each of these essential mental activities. Mental wellness is all about reinforcing our connections with others and the world around us; and it is also about strengthening the connections within the brain itself. When we vary the focus of attention with this spectrum of mental activities, we give the brain lots of opportunities to develop in different ways.
Balance, to me relates to Spiritual Wellness. Sometimes...I can be involved in several activities...feeling great..I'm thinking/feeling... though really needing to step back and just step back (:

The first step in my spring cleaning process is to reassess your space, your schedule, and patterns of mind to see what is supporting or not supporting your writing life.
Go and look at your writing space. What’s the state of it? Do you feel a sense of ease when you look at it? Is it crammed with stuff that belongs in other rooms of your house? If you live with other people, is this space known as your special writing area?
Have you even claimed some special place yet, or are you waiting for permission from someone else? If you’re struggling with this, see my post on claiming creative space.
Survey your space and make a quick list of what you feel needs your attention most. The questions below are not exhaustive, but offer a good place to start.
-Do you need to organize and sort your paper files?
-Would it be useful to create an index for your piles of journals?
-Are there notes from conferences and workshops that need to be reviewed and filed?
-Are there writing exercises that could be useful to you if they were typed up?
-When was the last time you did a backup of your computer files? Do you need to delete or add programs?
-Do you need to release some writing books? Welcome others?
-Do you need to physically clean your computer?
-Do you have visible reminders of your writing accomplishments? Is it time to take some down and put up new ones?
-Do you have too much or too little of something in your space?
-Do you need more or less shelf space?
-Are there big physical jobs you’d like to do (i.e. paint)?
Once you have your list you can break each item down into specific tasks.
It’s important to not get overwhelmed during spring cleaning. Many people decide they will devote a day to a spring cleaning project and then realize that they’re cranky after two hours and that the task requires at least two days. Start small and reward yourself often. Why not take from now until the official start of summer to spring clean? You could choose one project each week. I suggest working in 15-30 minute intervals so there’s less chance of getting frustrated and overwhelmed. I enjoy using an online stopwatch.
What are you reassessing right now in support of your writing life?
While I was enjoying the article above, I noticed other wonderful inspirational pieces were on that site . Hope you enjoy too

I loved this lil' funny but true I saw on Bmindful:
Hi iZ!
“In the eyes of God, we’re all perfect and we all have unlimited capacity to express brilliantly. I say unlimited capacity rather than unlimited potential because potential can be a dangerous concept. We can use it to tyrannize ourselves, to live in the future instead of the present, to set ourselves up for despair. We’re constantly measuring ourselves against what we think we could be, rather than what we are. Potential is a concept which can bind us to personal powerlessness Focus on human potential becomes impotent without a focus on human capacity. Capacity is expressed in the present, it is immediate, the key to it lies not in what we have inside of us, but rather in what we are willing to own that we have inside of us. There’s no point in waiting until we’re perfect at what we do, or enlightened masters, or PhDs in life, before opening ourselves to what we’re capable of doing now. Of course we’re not as good today as we’ll be tomorrow, but how will we ever get tomorrow’s promise without making some sort of move today?”Marianne Williamson

***Self Decluttering*** —Good riddance to decisions that don’t support self-care, self-value, and self-worth. ***Decluttering with Others*** —Do the people in my life give me energy and encourage my personal growth, or block that growth with dysfunctional dynamics and outdated scripts? If they don’t support me as a loving, open, free, and spontaneous being: Goodbye!(lovingly) ***Decluttering emotional life*** —Out with stagnant patterns that no longer serve me. ***Decluttering work*** —Not only reducing the “clutter” of paperwork, inefficiency, and overcommunication, but also striving to create a balanced workload and make my work invigorating, inspiring, collaborative, and empowering to others. ***Decluttering nature and play*** —Seeing these as expressions of love and opportunities to fill your life with truth and joy. ***~http://positiveprovocations.com/2011/05/22/declutter-yourself-for-immense-happiness/~***

_________________________________________________ _________________________________________________ You and Your Energy: Key Points • Our mental and emotional diets determine our energy levels, health and well-being much more than most people realize. • Look at life as an energy economy game. • Each day, ask, “Are my energy expenditures – actions, reactions, thoughts and feelings – productive or nonproductive? • During the course of my day, have I accumulated more stress or more peace? • Keeping an asset/deficit balance sheet even for a few days will give you an extremely clear picture of where and how you’re adding to your energy account and where and how you’re overdrawing it. • When we consciously evoke core heart feelings, we nourish our bodies at every level. Like quantum nutrients, core heart feelings keep our cells regenerating.

SelfCare My name that most people know me by is SelfCare, and that idea brings the best out in me, because it is truly about allowing ease in being myself, loving myself, caring for me… so I can do all else that matters for me, including being present for others(: And ultimately beyond enjoying our time here ..why are we here? Just for ourselves? Being a self care enthusiast allows us to be available and present in our lives for ourselves and for our fellow-person(: So that is what I desire more of for myself… To create a better me, so I can demonstrate more to people I love, people I’d like to love better, people I’ve yet to meet, and have known… etc… I want to grow into a better me. Therefore: I am loving my shift as I Am changed as I think and speak what I want and need. And I choose to follow through with actions which work with my heart-desires.

★“The greatest and most important problems of life are all fundamentally insoluble. They can never be solved but only outgrown.” Carl Jung
Lately I’ve been loving this one. It reached my heart before my mind(:
My mind didn’t like problems were problems… and insoluble. Though my heart explained it to me…. We simply outgrow the things that seem to stand in our way, and poof… (or it seems that fast /grin) moving forward some more(:
affirmations I slow myself to be more loving and compassionate to myself and others.
~ I allow loving gentle energy with myself and others.
~ In learning who others are in the present moment, and learning who I am (as I too am always changing), it is vital I always start with a loving fresh heart-space with each new circumstance…even if it is myself, or interacting with the same person.

I love appreciating just for me(: Appreciation I appreciate this moment because I simply enjoy appreciation, it feels good, and it opens/stimulates neuro-pathways & adds to creativity and desire for the good I love. It reminds me to check in with myself to enjoy my life even more

I appreciate this moment because it is another moment to choose how to take really wonderful care of me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
sometimes my sanctuary is just a place that is new … that has nothing that reminds me of anything… It helps where I Am surface to me
Aug 2016 I have been inspired by others who create their personal sanctuaries on this site, thank you bmindful
I’d like to give this a shot(:
I am in a wide open space, with a lovely smooth peaceful comfortable place to sit and admire all around me.
I see smooth medium sized paths… big enough to roam, though narrow enough to stay focused right where I am.
I see mountains I can easily get to, and climb safely and awesomely…and adventurously.
I see a big area of wonderful clean growing food, next to a spring that is beautiful, clear and clean to drink and bathe in.
I see smooth areas to take long naps, or get up and draw or write whatever my heart communicates with me about.
I feel clear headed, and free.
I feel love, loved and refreshed for whatever I want and who I truly am…right from the heart.
I’d like to come back and see how my sanctuary changes/grows etc.

~ Affirmations For Goals I am achieving outstanding success in all areas of my life! I feel intense pleasure by following through on all endeavors I am allowing prosperity to flow into my life, and I am graciously receiving it.
It is safe now, to let any old ideas and patterns drop away. I don’t have to know exactly how I am changing — I can flow with a bit of awkwardness and uncertainty today.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here are a few suggestions to actually use the New Year as a focal point for a better life: . Think in terms of final desired outcomes. . Know your current reality in relationship to them. . That will form structural tension, the best dynamic for real and lasting change. . From that, create an action plan with due dates. . Don’t have too many “resolutions” because that will lead to overwhelm. . Choose a few that can be created quickly, within the first few weeks so you can generate some momentum. . Manage the process directly. . Learn, adjust, learn, adjust, learn as you engage in the process. . Don’t take it personally, this is not about you but about the end results you are creating. . Build foundation. The more you create, the more you are able to create. “ Robert Fritz Inc-Home Page”:http://www.robertfritz.com/wp/
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “tension-seeks-resolution”:http://www.robertfritz.com/wp/principles/tension-seeks-resolution/ R. Fritz “In fact, part of your job as a creator is to form this tension.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Creativity Cooperating with Our Creativity
“When we are willing to be open-minded, art and beauty come flooding into us in a thousand small ways. When we let ourselves see the possibilities instead of the improbabilities, we become as flexible and resilient as we really are. It is human nature to create. When we cooperate with our creativity, using it to live within the lives we actually have, we surprise ourselves with our level of invention.”Julia Cameron— The Sound of Paper: Starting from Scratch
The Power of Imagination
“I think of affirmations and visualizations as tapping into the power of the imagination, which is a generator and transformer, a force that precedes and shapes who we become, and what we create and achieve. Whenever we attempt something new or difficult, we have to be able to imagine it before it becomes possible. It’s the combination of inspiration and perspiration that brings about tangible results.”Jean Shinoda BolenClose to the BoneLife-Threatening Illness and the Search for Meaning

‘To do is to be’—Jean Paul Sartre
Do-be-do-be-do-be-do. —Frank Sinatra
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “If we let go of what we’re trying to get more of, which we really don’t need, it frees up reserves of vitality to make a difference with what we have. When you make a difference with what you have, it expands. This applies to love, to time, to relationships — and, of course, to money. If you sit down and make a difference with the money that you have, you will find that your experience of it expands, and you don’t have that focus on scrambling to get more of what you don’t really need — which is what most of us are so busy doing that we don’t even notice who we are and what we have. By contrast, the context of sufficiency is making a difference with who you are, what you have, and knowing that it’s whole, complete, and exactly enough. It’s perfection.” ✰Lynne Twist

Articles What is creativity? From Human Motivation, 3rd ed., by Robert E. Franken: Creativity is defined as the tendency to generate or recognize ideas, alternatives, or possibilities that may be useful in solving problems, communicating with others, and entertaining ourselves and others. (page 396) Three reasons why people are motivated to be creative: need for novel, varied, and complex stimulation need to communicate ideas and values need to solve problems (page 396) In order to be creative, you need to be able to view things in new ways or from a different perspective. Among other things, you need to be able to generate new possibilities or new alternatives. Tests of creativity measure not only the number of alternatives that people can generate but the uniqueness of those alternatives. the ability to generate alternatives or to see things uniquely does not occur by change; it is linked to other, more fundamental qualities of thinking, such as flexibility, tolerance of ambiguity or unpredictability, and the enjoyment of things heretofore unknown.

The attitude of mind necessarily depends upon what we think. Therefore, the secret of all power, all achievement and all possession depends upon our method of thinking.
This is true because we must “be” before we can “do,” and we can “do” only to the extent which we “are,” and what we “are” depends upon what we “think.”
book The Master Key System reading/listening to this now The Master Key does not claim to be a new religion, nor is it antagonistic, or contrary, to any creed. Its realm is the realm of secular life where it stands supreme as a practical guide to the art and science of getting life’s advantages by conscious collaboration with the Law of Causation along definite lines which the inspired author elaborates.
We close by reminding the reader that pure learning is of no use whatever, even to the possessor, unless it is backed by action. Therefore the exercises set must be actually practised, otherwise the new knowledge would tend to create dreamers rather than men and women of purposeful achievement, useful alike to themselves and to all those with whom they come into contact.FREDERICK H. BURGESS for THEMASTERKEYPUBLISHINGCOMPANY London, August, 1937.

~affirmationsI Choose Peace and Happiness Written by Carmien Owen ***~KnowTheFlow.ca~*** There is one magnificent and awe-inspiring field of Unconditional Love. My every thought, my entire mind, activates this field of Unconditional Love.
I choose to identify myself with power, love, beauty, peace and happiness. Each realization of my creative potential instills a knowing within me of the Infinite power available to me. I allow myself to dwell upon love and beauty, discerning it through all events and people as a by-product of the expression of God through all. I experience the flow of peace and happiness that results from this state of heart and mind. I identify with, and am receptive to, abundance and success through my creative expression.
I can get a magnificent benefit from anything that occurs.
~ With a celebration of the magnificence of Spirit as I know It, and a sense of Awe for what this awareness inspires through me, I release these words with a profound and deep gratitude. I know it is done in the Mind of the One. And so it is.
Sometimes all I want to do…is simplify. I don’t always start there…though gratefully I get there(: ***Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ*** Purpose of this thread: Since ‘the world’ can be such an influential place, I spend time influencing myself…like I am sure other like minded individuals do(-:

~ threads somewhere I had a thread that resembled this: It’s lovely to focus on how wonderful our lives are! Another place to focus on appreciation(:
I like accepting of yourself and that you want to love yourself as you should… I believe is a foundation for a wonderful life(:
I love to hear how others are appreciating(: I love to ease into my day with thoughts of appreciation…Things I need to get done…just start getting done. I love how this day begins to already show itself with love and beauty as I see what I love and love what I see.
I too need very little…and the less I seem to need…the more I desire seems to materialize like little surprises.
I ease into enthusiasm and that feels great to me…because I can recall how I co-created the experience and it gives me hope that this is a tool that is there for me.
I love much…and love how I can focus my love on ways that bring the best out in me, and can bring my better self out to play(: I love how wonderful it is that a wonderful life is anything I feel it is…and the people who are close to me feel good sharing what they love too.
And even acquaintances in my daily experiences seem to want to exchange what they’re smiling about…or the hope of a better day. I love that!

***_The Law of Attraction_*** The Law of Attraction stipulates that we attract all events, people and circumstances into our lives through our thoughts and feelings. That means if you now have relationships, health, finances, and job circumstances that you are not satisfied with, it is possible for you to turn things around … by consciously changing your thoughts, feelings and attitude towards these areas in your life.Whatever you think about, talk about, fantasize about, or give your attention to, you are going to attract more of into your life. The universe is made up of energy. Your thoughts are energy. Energy flows where attention goes. Your attention focuses energy into manifestation. Every thought you think, and its accompanying feelings, sends out a vibration to the universe (the zero point field, the quantum field, Source, God, Infinite Intelligence) and attracts back to it experiences that match the vibration of that feeling-thought

QUOTES by JACKCANFIELDFROM: The Success Principles: How to Get from Where You Are to Where You Want to Be. Now, when anything ‘bad’ happens, I remember that everything that ever happens to me has within it the seeds of something better. I look for the upside rather than the downside. I ask myself, ‘Where’s the greater benefit in this event?’ — P.47
One of the easiest ways to begin clarifying what you truly want is to make a list of 30 things you want to do, 30 things you want to have, and 30 things you want to be before you die. — P.28
If something doesn’t turn out as planned, you will ask yourself, ‘How did I create that? What was I thinking? What were my beliefs? What did I say or not say?

I like Dr. Daniel Amen’s 18/40/60 Rule: When you’re 18, you worry about what everybody is thinking of you; when you’re 40, you don’t give a darn what anybody thinks of you; when you’re 60, you realize nobody’s been thinking about you at all. — P.45
I first learned about the power of affirmations when W. Clement Stone challenged me to set a goal so far beyond my current circumstances it would literally astound me if I achieved it. — P.79
Taking care of to-do items: ▣ If you can take care of it within 10 minutes – Do it immediately. ▣ If you want to take care of it yourself, but know it will take longer – Delay it by filing it. ▣ If you can’t do it yourself or don’t want to take time – Delegate it to someone you trust to accomplish the task; be sure to have the person report back when he or she finishes the task so that you know it is complete. ▣ Dump it – if you do not want to do anything with it.

~affirmationsI Choose Peace and Happiness Written by Carmien Owen ***~KnowTheFlow.ca~*** There is one magnificent and awe-inspiring field of Unconditional Love. My every thought, my entire mind, activates this field of Unconditional Love.
I choose to identify myself with power, love, beauty, peace and happiness. Each realization of my creative potential instills a knowing within me of the Infinite power available to me. I allow myself to dwell upon love and beauty, discerning it through all events and people as a by-product of the expression of God through all. I experience the flow of peace and happiness that results from this state of heart and mind. I identify with, and am receptive to, abundance and success through my creative expression.

To know how to choose a path with heart is to learn how to follow intuitive feeling. Logic can tell you superficially where a path might lead to, but it cannot judge whether your heart will be in it. Jean Shinoda Bolen
When you recover or discover something that nourishes your soul and brings joy, care enough about yourself to make room for it in your life. Jean Shinoda Bolen
Whatever has crowded out growth needs to be recognized and removed. Jean Shinoda Bolen
To be a soulful person means to go against all the pervasive, prove-yourself values of our culture and instead treasure what is unique and internal and valuable in yourself and your own personal evolution.” Jean Shinoda Bolen
You have the need and the right to spend part of your life caring for your soul. It is not easy. You have to resist the demands of the work-oriented, often defensive, element in your psyche that measures life only in terms of output — how much you produce — not in terms of the quality of your life experiences. Jean Shinoda Bolen
We need to meditate on what is peaceful. Once we have ‘filled up’ in this way, we once again have an abundance of love to send out into the world. Jean Shinoda Bolen
I feel that one must deliberate then act, must scan every life choice with rational thinking but then base the decision on whether one’s heart will be in it. Jean Shinoda Bolen

“I know that I am pure spirit, that I always have been, and that I always will be. There is inside me a place of confidence and quietness and security where all things are known and understood. This is the Universal Mind, God, of which I am a part and which responds to me as I ask of it. This universal mind knows the answer to all of my problems, and even now the answers are speeding their way to me. I needn’t struggle for them; I needn’t worry or strive for them. When the time comes, the answers will be there. I give my problems to the great mind of God; I let go of them, confident that the correct answers will return to me when they are needed. Through the great law of attraction, everything in life that I need for my work and fulfillment will come to me. It is not necessary that I strain about this, only believe. For in the strength of my belief, my faith will make it so. I see the hand of divine intelligence all about me, in the flower, the tree, the brook, the meadow. I know that the intelligence that created all these things is in me and around me and that I can call upon it for my slightest need. I know that my body is a manifestation of pure spirit and that spirit is perfect; therefore my body is perfect also. I enjoy life, for each day brings a constant demonstration of the power and wonder of the universe and myself. I am confident. I am serene. I am sure. No matter what obstacle or undesirable circumstance crosses my path, I refuse to accept it, for it is nothing but illusion. There can be no obstacle or undesirable circumstance to the mind of God, which is in me, and around me, and serves me now.”

I act with high intention and purposeful awareness
I create intentions with joy, ease, and peace. As I look upon my words, I know that the world is shifting to bring forth everything on my mental and physical list. I now see opportunities, I now have ideas, and I now have the means to accomplish everything I desire and it feels wonderful.
As long as I have a strong connection to Spirit, my connections with other humans are based on affection, not need. I now claim my strong and unwavering connection to Spirit (Loving Creator;God), & I feel that awesome connection in this moment.

3 Levels Of Living psychologytoday.com/blog/happiness Three Levels To Living
Level One might be called reactionary. At this level, a person lives in the moment, but without higher-order goals or purpose. Depending on the quality of circumstances, this person will experience a greater or lesser degree of fun and pleasure.
Level Two is represented by the person who acts to attain highly valued goals. Examples include having a happy relationship, financial security, success in a career. People who live at this level open the door to satisfaction and happiness.
It is when people have a passionate purpose for their life that they live at Level Three. This occurs when a person develops the burning “why” behind what they do and then intentionally expresses this “why” throughout the fabric of his or her life. Those who live at this level experience deep fulfillment and even joy, on top of many moments of fun, pleasure, and happiness.

The secret of our lost mode of prayer is to shift our perspective of life by feeling that the miracle has already happened and our prayers have been answered. Now we have the opportunity to bring this wisdom into our lives as prayers of gratitude for what already exists, rather than asking for our prayers to be answered. Gregg Braden

***~knowing what’s important-quote~*** There are fine things which you mean to do some day, under what you think will be more favorable circumstances. But the only time that is surely yours is the present, hence this is the time to speak the word of appreciation and sympathy, to do the generous deed, to forgive the fault of a thoughtless friend, to sacrifice self a little more for others. Today is the day in which to express your noblest qualities of mind and heart, to do at least one worthy thing which you have long postponed, and to use your God-given abilities for the enrichment of someone less fortunate. Today you can make your life – significant and worthwhile. The present is yours to do with as you will.Grenville Kleiser
˚ ✰。˚ ˚ღ。 At different moments/times of our lives…different areas need tweaking.
Pick one important task you really should get done today. Clear space in front of you to do this task. Close the browser, or all browser tabs except the one you need to deal with this. Shut off the phone, clear everything else away, focus your mind on this one task. Sit there and do the task. Watch your mind want to run. Now we’re going to do “pause training,” where instead of running from the discomfort, you pause. Breathe. Turn your attention to this discomfort — it might be fear, frustration, uncertainty, self-doubt, tiredness. Drop your story about this discomfort, and just notice how it feels physically, in your body. Where is this feeling of discomfort located? What quality does it have?
You’ll notice that the discomfort actually doesn’t feel that bad, even though you habitually want to run from it. It’s just energy. It’s not actually good or bad, but just energy that’s in your body, one that you normally don’t want to have and normally judge as “bad.”
Try this pause training for yourself. It won’t work to just read about it, you have to work with it. Get to know it, become intimate with it.
Unconventional Productivity Once you’ve started to work with the discomfort, you’ll see that it’s No Big Deal. Nothing to worry about. It’s just a feeling, just energy. You’ll relax a little around it. Try to develop a friendly attitude toward it, instead of being harsh on yourself. Just notice, just smile, just breathe, just be gentle.
How do you turn this No Big Deal into productivity? Here’s a system to try:
Set your 3 Most Important Tasks (MITs) every morning, first thing when you start work. List a few other “should do’s” after that, but focus on the MITs first. Pick one of the MITs, and clear space to do it. Before you check email. Do some pause training. Notice when you want to run from this task, pause, investigate the physical feeling of discomfort with gentleness, friendliness and curiosity. Set a heart intention. When you relax into the discomfort, and see it’s not a big deal, set an intention around the task — are you doing it to improve your life, to do something good for someone else, to help the world? Find the heart in your intention — it’s ultimately coming out of love. Say to yourself, “It is my intention to do this task out of love for __” (fill in the blank: yourself, someone else, the world, etc.). Work with love. Open your hear and do this task with the love that comes out of your intention. Notice when you’re feeling discomfort and want to switch to something else, relax, do pause training if you need to, and then start again. Take breaks. Every 10-15 minutes, get up and walk around. Stretch. Drink water. Check in with yourself and see how you’re doing. Then return to the task or pick another MIT. You won’t be perfect at this, so don’t expect perfection. Just work with it, gently, and you’ll get better and better with practice.

3 things that made me smile today: 1) 3 more things today… hearing wonderful things members are doing these days 2) creating a tickler file that is GREAT!!! What can I say -creativity for purposeful things makes me smile ear to ear 3) smiling about my heart-felt dreams ….slow and steady is good(:
There is a member on our site who has posted some extraordinaryaffirmations… which resonate for me. The members name is BrightAngel.…I truly like her style & feel a wonderful identification with some of her affirmations:
When I want to, I can express my gentleness openly and freely, just my love for all that is….extending out to people who are nearest to me I believe I’m a wonderful person, and my words matter. I like expressing encouragement and support. People often think that you have to do stuff and be a go-getter, but maybe just being yourself and living fully, also spreads joy into the world.
In what ways might I enjoy spreading love and goodness into the world? Would it be good to do this directly or indirectly? Would I like to spread love to certain issues or certain populations? I can test-drive many different ways, on many different days. It is safe now, to let any old ideas and patterns drop away. I don’t have to know exactly how I am changing — I can flow with a bit of awkwardness and uncertainty today.
I like who I am on the inside, and see that reflected in the image I present to the outside world. I am confident and comfortable with who I am. I am completely free to widen my circle of kindness and affection — the universe is supporting me. I’m getting really good at noticing the gifts of others, and seeing the ways in which other people give me bits of affection and joy. I like being here on the earthly plane, and I am feeling safe and supported here. I allow myself to do things that I’m good at, and follow the sparks of joy that I feel while doing stuff I care about.
I find myself having everything I need to feel happy and connected There is tremendous joy in being willing to be taught by the universe how to lift the vibrations of myself and humanity, in whatever ways I am best suited to. I am here, whole, complete, beautiful, exactly as I am inside, exactly as I am outside. I bring the full strength and beauty of who I am into the world.

You’ll notice that the discomfort actually doesn’t feel that bad, even though you habitually want to run from it. It’s just energy. It’s not actually good or bad, but just energy that’s in your body, one that you normally don’t want to have and normally judge as “bad.”
Try this pause training for yourself. It won’t work to just read about it, you have to work with it. Get to know it, become intimate with it.
Unconventional Productivity Once you’ve started to work with the discomfort, you’ll see that it’s No Big Deal. Nothing to worry about. It’s just a feeling, just energy. You’ll relax a little around it. Try to develop a friendly attitude toward it, instead of being harsh on yourself. Just notice, just smile, just breathe, just be gentle.
How do you turn this No Big Deal into productivity? Here’s a system to try:
Set your 3 Most Important Tasks (MITs) every morning, first thing when you start work. List a few other “should do’s” after that, but focus on the MITs first. Pick one of the MITs, and clear space to do it. Before you check email. Do some pause training. Notice when you want to run from this task, pause, investigate the physical feeling of discomfort with gentleness, friendliness and curiosity. Set a heart intention. When you relax into the discomfort, and see it’s not a big deal, set an intention around the task — are you doing it to improve your life, to do something good for someone else, to help the world? Find the heart in your intention — it’s ultimately coming out of love. Say to yourself, “It is my intention to do this task out of love for __” (fill in the blank: yourself, someone else, the world, etc.). Work with love. Open your hear and do this task with the love that comes out of your intention. Notice when you’re feeling discomfort and want to switch to something else, relax, do pause training if you need to, and then start again. Take breaks. Every 10-15 minutes, get up and walk around. Stretch. Drink water. Check in with yourself and see how you’re doing. Then return to the task or pick another MIT. You won’t be perfect at this, so don’t expect perfection. Just work with it, gently, and you’ll get better and better with practice.

The following are chapters from a book by Jack Canfield entitled Success Principles.. I simply took the chapter titles and converted them into daily questions. I find it to be a very helpful daily inventory. Take 100% Responsibility for Your Life, Be Clear Why You’re Here
Why am I here?
What do I want?
Do I believe it is possible?
Do I believe in myself?
Have I unleashed my goal setting today?
No matter what I feel, am I going for it anyway?
Am I willing to pay the price?
Do I reject rejection?
Do I use feedback to my advantage?
Do I commit to constant never-ending improvement?
Do I practice persistence?
Do I exceed expectations?
Do I surround myself with successful people?
Do I acknowledge the best about me?
Do I face what isn’t working?
Have I transformed my inner critic to my inner coach?
Do I stay motivated with the masters?
Do I fuel my success with passion and enthusiasm?
Do I build my success team with creative successful relationships?

***_The Law of Attraction_*** The Law of Attraction stipulates that we attract all events, people and circumstances into our lives through our thoughts and feelings. That means if you now have relationships, health, finances, and job circumstances that you are not satisfied with, it is possible for you to turn things around … by consciously changing your thoughts, feelings and attitude towards these areas in your life.Whatever you think about, talk about, fantasize about, or give your attention to, you are going to attract more of into your life. The universe is made up of energy. Your thoughts are energy. Energy flows where attention goes. Your attention focuses energy into manifestation. Every thought you think, and its accompanying feelings, sends out a vibration to the universe (the zero point field, the quantum field, Source, God, Infinite Intelligence) and attracts back to it experiences that match the vibration of that feeling-thought

Personally I love having dreams! It gives me something to look forward to..Though I guess one of the biggest messages I’ve received in my life… pertaining to life… is to balance out my dreams …so I do not forget why I want them… When I do that, I often find out I am right where I’m supposed to be…(for me)…and it gives me the drive to do the next right thing (for me) and when (for me)… This increases my self-worth…not my ego..my simple foundation for moving forward at my desired speed.
Whatever I end up doing or not doing will have truly been up to me..no one to blame… nothing to regret(:
I can comfortably change my mind… I can comfortably increase or decrease the speed in which I’m traveling. I can love myself.

~ ~ ~ Definition: Let’s briefly define what we mean by Joy. It’s the energy of love, the feeling quality of love. We’re talking about unconditional love for self and others. Joy is different than ordinary happiness which is usually a personality reaction to outer conditions. Joy is a soul quality and is untouched by outer circumstances. Our Motto is “Joy Is An Inside Job.” ***~Joyful You™Joyful Child® www.joy4you.org~***

~~ ✰~~ As far as inner transformation is concerned, there is nothing you can do about it. You cannot transform yourself, and you certainly cannot transform your partner or anybody else. All you can do is create a space for transformation to happen, for grace and love to enter. ***~Eckhart Tolle~***

See your “career” as one of creating a joyful life experience. You are not a creator of things or a regurgitator of what someone else has created or a gatherer of stuff. You are a creator, and the subject of your creation is your joyful life experience. That is your mission. That is your quest. That is why you are here. “ Abe”:http://bmindful.com/forum/thread/3755/-wisdom-from-unique-sources#post37181

1. Importance of the values affected. How important is this one value to your overall happiness? The more important the value, the higher the emotional intensity. 2. Expectation and adaption levels of values affected. The higher your expectations and standards, the harder it is to meet them. Values, expectations, and goals are key aspects of the HF model and directly cause mental search, stimulation, and reinforcement. Adaption levels and novelty also cause varying degrees of search, stimulation, and reinforcement. For example a child used to poverty may feel very happy about receiving a used toy that a wealthy child would feel upset receiving. 3. Number of values affected. The greater the number of values, the greater the emotional intensity. to read more Copyright 2014 Tom G. Stevens PhD Harmonious Functioning Model Of Emotions And Performance P. 250

Copyright 2014 Tom G. Stevens PhD Tom G. Stevens PhD SITECONTENTS:Self Help Information and Assessments, Professional Papers, and Other Materials You Can Choose To Be Happy-Free E Book & Site Info brief excerpt from bookA Step By Step Guide For Novices To Professionals Let your nonjudgmental inner observer use neutral, nonjudgmental language as it talks. Some part of you (not your inner observer) might be judging someone—calling them “stupid” or “bad.” During the first part of the self-exploration stage, don’t let your inner observer change that judgmental part or change the language it is using. It will only observe the language and its effects on your other thoughts, emotions, and actions.
Your inner observer may notice that condemning someone increases negative thoughts, increases anger, and increases aggressive actions. The reaction of your neutral observer is not to condemn, it is, “That’s interesting—perhaps there is a causal relationship between my judgments, my anger, and my aggressive responses.”
As your inner observer talks about what it is observing, it is important that it use descriptive, nonjudgmental language. If it falls into a judgmental mode, then it will lose its power to be an accurate observer.
Let your nonjudgmental inner-observer avoid zingers and melodramatic descriptions. Zingers are key words that incite emotional reactions. They can disrupt thinking from a “just getting the facts” mode to an “I need to react” mode. At times when you are observing yourself, you will undoubtedly be tempted to think thoughts like, “That was stupid, why did I do that?” But beware of such temptations. Innuendos, digs, subtle put-downs, and defensive comments all stir up parts of us that are anything but neutral—so avoid observational zingers of any type!to read moreCopyright 2014 Tom G.

** book title ***You Can Choose To Be Happy: Site dedicated to enhancing human happiness, self-development, and success***
** author ***~Tom G. Stevens PhD Psychologist/Professor Emeritus, California State University, Long Beach~*** brief excerpt from bookANGER IS AN EMOTIONTHATCENTERS ON GETTINGCONTROL Someone calls you an “inconsiderate idiot,” and you feel angry. Someone cuts in front of you on the freeway, and you feel angry. Someone attacks your friend, and you feel angry. Someone tells you that you will not get the pay increase you think you deserve, and you feel angry. What causes you to feel anger? What do all of these situations have in common?
Underlying anger is caused by a perceived loss of control over factors affecting important values. The values in the above examples might be pride, getting someplace on time, someone you love, money, or being treated “fairly”—we are frustrated about not getting what we want or expect.Copyright 2014 Tom G. Stevens PhD
With anger, we usually think we know what caused the problem. We have some target(s) for our anger. It may be the person criticizing you, the person who cut you off on the freeway, an attacker, your boss, or even yourself. With anger, we may hope that a burst of energy aimed at the threat will defeat it. Or we may hope that a burst of energy will break the barrier stopping us from meeting our goal.
Anger can be used constructively at times. It can give us energy we need to fight back if physically attacked. However, for most situations it merely clouds our judgement and creates extra stress Copyright 2014 Tom G. Stevens PhD

✰。˚ ˚ღ。 ˛˚ 。✰˚* ˚ ★ღ ˚ 。✰ With gratitude & appreciation I present excerpts from Dr. Phillip Shapiro’s spiritual and informative site : Dr. Phillip Shapiro & Affirmations ✰。˚ ˚ღ。 ˛˚ 。✰˚* ˚ ★ღ ˚ 。✰ AFFIRMATIONS Section: ***~what you will find on this 1 page, by clicking above link:~*** o The Power of Thought o AFFIRMATIONSANDTHESUBCONSCIOUSMIND Positive thoughts act like medicine released from the brain’s own pharmacy. This thought-medicine cannot do its work, however, if negative ideas, beliefs, or attitudes neutralize its healing power. When a positive affirmation is stated, there is often an attack of negative thoughts or beliefs, which emerge from their storage place in the subconscious. o CREATINGPOWERFULANDEFFECTIVEAFFIRMATIONS CREATINGPOWERFULANDEFFECTIVEAFFIRMATIONS
Affirmations work, but they may not work for you if they lack the necessary potency to take hold and grow. Following are some suggestions for creating effective healing affirmations.
1. DEFINEYOURPROBLEM
2. DEFINEYOURGOAL Focus on your solution rather than the problem. Do not think so much of where you have been as of where you want to be. You become and attract what you intend. Your goals will become your new habits. For example, if you are working with disease, focus on health. For fear, invoke courage or bravery. For anger, try peace, patience, forgiveness, or gentleness. For weakness, try strength. For failure, try success.
3. PRESENTTENSE State the affirmation in the present tense, as though the goal is already accomplished. You would not want to affirm, “I am going to be calm.” You would affirm, “I am calm.”
4. POSITIVETERMS State the affirmation in positive terms such as “I am calm,” not the negative “I am no longer anxious.”
5. INDIVIDUALIZE Keep reworking the affirmation until it feels just right. For example, you may prefer “I remain even-minded under all conditions,” or “evenminded no matter the condition,” or simply a one-word affirmation: “even-minded.” When it feels right, it will fit the rhythm of your being perfectly.
6. VISUALIZATION We can reinforce the power of our affirmation by associating it with a mental picture or visualization. In this way we can think, see, and feel the reality of the affirmation. For example, we can all imagine circumstances that make us nervous, angry, or agitated. We can rehearse these scenes in our minds by creating thoughts and pictures of ourselves remaining calm despite provocation. The more we rehearse, the more likely the subconscious and conscious minds will help us stay relaxed when the actual stressful condition arrives.
7. PRACTICE Practice and repetition are most important. Without repetition, there can be no progress. Deeply embedded negative thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes have been around for a long time in the subconscious mind. When the brain cells are loaded up with thought habits that have to do with disease and limitation, it takes time to form thought circuits that have to do with health and possibility. We need to repeat affirmations continuously for chronic deeply embedded conditions, and we need to ignore an unchanged or contrary condition as we repeat the affirmation.
Many people give up early, not understanding the effort required or unwilling to do the work. Some habits, patterns, or conditions may change with ease, while others may take a long time to heal or replace. We need patience: it may take months, even years, to transform deeply ingrained habit patterns of thought, feeling, desire, or behavior. Perseverance is the magic of spiritual work.
The more we use positive affirmation, the quicker change occurs for the better. With continued practice, the affirmation takes on a life of its own. It repeats itself by itself. The thought gains momentum and strength, eventually becoming powerful enough to become reality. Repetitious positive thoughts gradually replace and finally dominate the negative patterns of the conscious and subconscious minds.
8. INTENSITY To be effective, we need to bring all of our attention and energy to our spiritual practice. Each method described in this book requires all of our heart, mind, might, and soul for maximum benefit. There must be sufficient intensity and concentration of feeling, thought, will, and faith to give the exercise—in this case, the affirmation—sufficient energy and power to make the necessary changes. If the affirmation is spoken without passion or planted in a restless, unfocused mind, it will have less power.
Muscles atrophy from lack of exercise. Similarly, those who have not been doing an inner workout weaken their powers of concentration and will, the tools necessary to break through the barriers of limitation into conscious possibility. With practice and repetition, our will power and concentration slowly grow.
As you strengthen your affirmation, be sure not to create tension by going too far. Calm concentration without tension increases the force of the thought. The goal is to repeat the affirmation as many times as you wish with calm concentration, deep feeling, and will. When you realize your attention has wandered, bring it back to the affirmation with as much focus as possible. Repeating the affirmation with increasingly intense concentration and feeling mobilizes healing power.
At first, our healing affirmations may be like sparks blowing in the wind with no apparent effect. With patient, persistent practice, these thoughts get stronger. They light healing power ablaze. Although it kindles slowly, if we keep adding affirmative fuel to the healing power, there will be a bonfire. Then the affirmation permeates our conscious and subconscious minds, every cell, fiber, molecule, and atom of our being, as well as surrounding space, eventually bringing into existence the very thing being affirmed.
9. FAITH Life energy, operating the bodily cells, tissues, organs, and systems, has within it the power of healing. This brilliant power heals our cuts, bruises, colds, and other ailments without our action. We can trust it, and there is evidence that the more we trust it, the better it works. Affirmations are more effective when practiced with faith and belief. Doubt and insecurity undermine the authority of the new positive thought, and work against the life energy and healing power. For maximum benefit, perform your affirmation with faith, trust, and belief in its power to heal.
[ ***~excerpts~*** ] Until you have experienced this feeling, then you have not yet tapped into the power of intention, and you are not tapping into your full potential either. That should not be a discouraging message by any means. On the contrary, it should be a message of hope. Because if you look at your life as it is now and all you have (or have not) created, realize now that everything you have done and achieved so far was what you have done without harnessing your true power.
Imagine now what you could create and who you could be if you mastered the art of tapping into the power of intention, and instead created with the power of the entire universe behind each and every one of your actions.

“Let us choose to be identified with power, with love and beauty, with peace and happiness. Let us identify ourselves with abundance and with success.”Ernest Holmes
I Choose Peace and Happiness Written by Carmien Owen ***~KnowTheFlow.ca~*** There is one magnificent and awe-inspiring field of Unconditional Love. My every thought, my entire mind, activates this field of Unconditional Love.
I choose to identify myself with power, love, beauty, peace and happiness. Each realization of my creative potential instills a knowing within me of the Infinite power available to me. I allow myself to dwell upon love and beauty, discerning it through all events and people as a by-product of the expression of God through all. I experience the flow of peace and happiness that results from this state of heart and mind. I identify with, and am receptive to, abundance and success through my creative expression.
With a celebration of the magnificence of Spirit as I know It, and a sense of Awe for what this awareness inspires through me, I release these words with a profound and deep gratitude. I know it is done in the Mind of the One. And so it is.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I’m sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. I love you. video1 video2

Being gentle is sometimes the most powerful thing you can do for yourself and the world around you.
***~quote from this site article/gentleness-as-strength~*** Personally, I view gentleness as a choice, a powerful one. I choose to be gentle, but that doesn’t mean I’m a pushover. And by making gentleness a conscious choice, I am making it my strength, instead of allowing it to make me a victim.
***~quote from this site articlegentleness-as-strength~*** I view gentleness as a barometer. Environments or people that don’t let it thrive get quickly avoided. Environments that allow it to flourish get indulged upon. But it took me years to respect my gentleness in this way.
~ I am perfectly imperfect. I strive for better while loving all that I am today. In loving myself today, I am better equipped to improve myself tomorrow.
~ I forgive and cherish my mistakes, mishaps, slip ups, foul words and temper losses as items I needed to try on for size to truly understand what a bad fit they’d be for my mental, physical and spiritual wardrobe.
~
I am defined by, and I define others by, love grounded principals, essence exuding manifestations, and radiant energy transmissions. Income, status or title float shallowly in the depth of my perceptions.
~ I value my health, even when my needs inconvenience others, as I can’t truly love myself without loving and inner-adorning the shine that encapsulates the magic of my soul.
~quote from articlebook by renowned author Martha Beck called Steering by Starlight. It’s about finding the life that’s meant for you and it’s incredibly insightful, I highly recommend it (and all of her books for that matter). In it Martha teaches the most interesting trick to silencing your inner critic and I had to share it with you as I think you might benefit from it as well.
silencing your inner critic & a love letter quote from article….by calling on your brain to observe this lizard identity you’ve created, “you subtract neural energy from survival fear and move it to a more highly evolved portion of the brain… The neuron pathways that carry lizard fears become weaker the more we observe them. Patients with ‘abnormal’ brains, such as those with obsessive-compulsive disorder, have actually reconfigured their brains to ‘normal’ by using self-observation techniques.”
Stop Feeling So Intimidated by People excerpt 1. The person you’re intimidated by is human. 2. They may not be who you think they are, after all. 3. Separate your own ego. 4. Don’t posture — but do stand tall. 5. Understand your own worth. We are all the same and we are all just trying to find our way in this world and heal our souls in the process. To do so we must look internally, with love and gratitude, not outwardly with envy and lack. 6. Approach everyone with love.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yes we are all unique…And I know right off the bat, some individuals will see gentle and be turned off for their particular mission, and others immediately gravitate.
And I’m one who gravitates toward it… So if this isn’t your cup of tea, may what assists/inspires you become like a neon light… and all others…hope you enjoy this thread(: Appreciating˚ related affirmations to be continued…

excerpt- On average, it takes more than two months before a new behavior becomes automatic — 66 days to be exact. And how long it takes a new habit to form can vary widely depending on the behavior, the person, and the circumstances. In Lally’s study, it took anywhere from 18 days to 254 days for people to form a new habit. [1]
In other words, if you want to set your expectations appropriately, the truth is that it will probably take you anywhere from two months to eight months to build a new behavior into your life — not 21 days.
In other words, if you want to set your expectations appropriately, the truth is that it will probably take you anywhere from two months to eight months to build a new behavior into your life — not 21 days.
Interestingly, the researchers also found that “missing one opportunity to perform the behavior did not materially affect the habit formation process.” In other words, it doesn’t matter if you mess up every now and then. Building better habits is not an all-or-nothing process.

** * ***Music and Happiness***
HEALYOURNESHAMAH (SOUL) WITHSONG!
The weaker and more depressed the music of the soul, the more sluggish the metabolism becomes. This leaves the body less and less able to withstand regular wear and tear, let alone the ravages of illness or injury. But with happy music, positive attitudes, cheerfulness and joy the entire system becomes invigorated and the functioning of all the cells and organs of the body is enhanced, bringing heightened physical immunity, increased stamina and greater wellbeing.
Feed and nourish the cells of your body with the right songs: happy, healing songs! The songs of life! This applies quite literally. Get into the habit of singing happy, inspiring melodies. Try! Experiment! Choose a favorite tune and work with it for five minutes. See what happens. At first your singing may feel a little uninspired, but if it’s a good melody and you are prepared to get into It, you’ll soon see how the melody will start to lift you up, bringing you new vitality, greater optimism and more positive thoughts and feelings. Do this regularly. When you don’t feel like singing yourself, have others sing or play to you, or listen to recordings of your favorite music.

** * As soon as you honor the present moment, all unhappiness and struggle dissolve, and life begins to flow with joy and ease. When you act out the present-moment awareness, whatever you do becomes imbued with a sense of quality, care, and love – even the most simple action.Eckart Tolle

As far as your life situation is concerned, there may be things to be attained or acquired. That’s the world of form, of gain and loss.

~~ ✰~~ Plant The Garden Of Your Life An excerpt (pages 37 – 38-This Thing Called You by Ernest Holmes): “Life lies open to me, rich, full and abundant. It is important that you maintain a strict censorship over your thinking. Just as you watch your garden that foreign seeds shall not fall into it, producing a growth of undesirable plants, so you must refuse entrance to any thoughts you do not wish to see manifested in your life.
Learn to convert thought patterns of sickness, unhappiness, fear and doubt into patterns which conform to spiritual perfection. Make a picture of yourself as happy and successful. Refuse to entertain contrary ideas.”
Guard well this garden of your mind. It is God’s garden of your soul. It is your Garden of Eden wherin may grow your fondest desires and hopes, blossoming into fulfillment. Or, if your permit, the weeds of destruction, fear and doubt, will choke out the beauty of hope until despair alone remains. Watch carefully, then, this garden of your soul. Plant there only seeds of happiness, of joy, of peace and of good will.
It may be necessary to cultivate your garden to uproot the weeds and straighten out the rows, planting new seeds—new ideas, broader visions and deeper realizations of life. New aspirations must be bedded here, fertilized with the fervor of hope, the conviction of faith, the beauty of wholeness and the quietness of peace. Watch your garden carefully, guard it patiently, waiting for a new harvest—for you shall reap what you have sown. Plant love in your garden. Kindness and sympathy flow from the heart of love, and human goodness…Go often into your garden. God Himself will go forth anew into creation through you.

Whether you have chosen something that just came to you, or something from the assessment listing, now just sit down and free associate.
Once you have the pie chart done, and can see the statements on each side, feels good/feels bad, then ask yourself this important question. “Do I want to live out the results of this percentage pie chart?” I find that a very motivating question, because if I’ve taken the trouble to pie chart something, I usually DON’T want to live with that negative vibration.
Then do a focus wheel on that subject, looking for things that feel good. See the lesson on focus wheels (number 5) if you don’t know how to do that process. to read more

Live your life each day as you would climb a mountain. An occasional glance toward the summit keeps the goal in mind, but many beautiful scenes are to be observed from each new vantage point. Climb slowly, steadily, enjoying each passing moment; and the view from the summit will serve as a fitting climax for the journey.Harold V. Melchert Ways To Create Extra Time

************************************ Communication via hormones: the heart as a hormonal gland. Another component of the heart-brain communication system was provided by researchers studying the hormonal system. The heart was reclassified as an endocrine gland when, in 1983, a hormone produced and released by the heart called atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) was isolated. This hormone exerts its effect on the blood vessels, on the kidneys, the adrenal glands, and on a large number of regulatory regions in the brain. It was also found that the heart contains a cell type known as ‘intrinsic cardiac adrenergic’’(ICA) cells. Theses cells release noradrenaline and dopamine neurotransmitters,once thought to be produced only by neurons in the CNS.More recently, it was discovered that the heart also secretes oxytocin, commonly referred to as the‘love’ or bonding hormone. In addition to its functions in childbirth and lactation, recent evidence indicates that this hormone is also involved in cognition,tolerance, adaptation, complex sexual and maternal behaviours, learning social cues and the establishment of enduring pair bonds. Concentrations of oxytocin inthe heart were found to be as high as those found in the brain (Cantin & Genest,1986

~~ …♥… ~~ The heart refuses to be imprisoned; in its first and narrowest pulses, it already tends outward with a vast force, and to immense and innumerable expansions.Ralph Waldo Emerson, “Circles”
Think how often we hear expressions like, “Listen to your heart” or “In your heart you’ll know what to do.” Such advice, when used in a balanced and wise manner, helps us to reduce confusion and make good decisions. Although this intelligence of the heart obviously refers to an intuitive or spiritual type of understanding, it is often connected with sensations felt in the center of the chest, in the general area around the physical heart.
Modern science is finding that the heart has its own memory and intelligence, that it actually plays a role in the feelings of love and intuition that we traditionally associate with the heart. A powerful step in becoming attuned to your heart’s intelligence is simply to be aware of the whole area in the center of your chest-called the heart area-where you may gradually begin to sense a very gentle and soothing warmth.
Whether you are responding to a stressful situation, seeking creative inspiration, or wondering how best to use a period of free time, the following simple four-step exercise can guide you in making optimal choices.
It’s called “Your Heart’s Way.” You can use this exercise in almost any place at any time, and it literally takes only a minute or less.
1.) Pause with confidence. Mentally say to yourself, “I am calm, I am confident.” If you are spiritually inclined, you may instead wish to mentally utter a short prayer or mentally surround yourself with a golden or white light. 2.) Breathe slowly. Allow your breath to become deep, quiet, and regular as your belly expands with each in-breath and contracts with each out-breath. Imagine that you are breathing in and out through the heart area in the center of your chest. 3.) Feel your heart. Take about seven seconds (perhaps longer when possible) and gently focus on your heart area-the whole central portion of your chest. While you do this, be inwardly quiet and very receptive. 4.) Sense your guidance. As you concentrate on the sensations in your heart area, intuit what your heart is communicating. Your heart’s guidance may be very subtle, showing itself in a feeling, thought, image, or inner knowing.As you practice, you will sense your heart’s guidance more easily and quickly. With continued practice, this helpful exercise may feel quite natural and can become habitual. You may even become so attuned to your heart and its guidance that you will live almost every aspect of your life from that beautiful place of love. Keeping a portion of your consciousness constantly attuned to the gentle warmth in your heart area will not interfere with the performance of your daily activities. In fact, it will increase your effectiveness, your productivity, your creativity, and your feelings of peace, love, and joy.

7 Core Principles [1] As science is helping us discover, the physical heart is truly amazing; and even more wondrous is the closely associated intuitive or spiritual heart, which gives us a wealth of subtle information and guides us in making optimal decisions. [2]A keen, intuitive sense is at the very heart of creativity, inner strength, spiritual attunement,and both personal and interpersonal effectiveness. [3]Tuning into your heartfelt intuitive guidance demands a degree of inner calmness and attention as well as sensitivity and openness. [4]Gathering important factual information and seeking wise advice plays a vital role in helping you intelligently follow your heart’s guidance. [5]A powerful step in becoming attuned to your heart’s intelligence is simply to be aware of the entire area in the center of your chest—called the heart area—where you may gradually begin to sense a gentle and soothing warmth. [6]By keeping a portion of your awareness in your heart area, and by sensing your inner guidance in all that you do, you will gradually become skilled in following the steadfast wisdom of your heart’s intelligence. [7]Remember, the more centered you are on the Target of Life, the greater your well-being, the wiser your choices, and the more effective you are in everything you do

~~ ✰~~ ❤video#2How the Heart Brain Connection Works ***~Greg Braden~*** Every moment of every day, your a heart is having a conversation with your brain
• Around the heart is a field of energy 3-5 feet in diameter.
• Every moment of every day your heart is sending signals to your brain instructing it to send what kind of energy to different parts of your body.
• Science has now revealed that atoms are concentrated fields of energy
• If you change the field of energy in which the atom lives, you change the structure of the atom. You can change the field electrically or magnetically.
• Our hearts are the strongetst bioelectrical and magnetic field generators in our body. Our hearts generate stronger electrical fields than out brain.
• Our hearts are 5000 times stronger magnetically than our brain
• The EKG of our heart is 100 times stronger than the EEG, the electrical information of our brains.
• So, it is electrical signals or frequencies generated internally that influence the the Brain on how much and where to send energy to different parts of the body.
The Institute of HeartMath (http://www.heartmath.org) shares fascinating understandings of the human heart as explored in more than 20 years of its research. The ‘Did you know’ facts are lesser-known gems of information to enlighten curiosity on how your own thoughts and emotions are affecting yourself and others.
HeartMath Research Director Rollin McCraty, Ph.D., says, “It’s important to take a pause and really consider what our emotions are contributing to our environment and to other people. Our research and its applications can help people create a positive emotion-based environment that has real effects on physiology.”
McCraty said that the true nature of human emotion is one of care and love. He said HeartMath and other research shows that by focusing on these core heart-felt emotions, it can enhance one’s connection with others, and that this connection extends far beyond the individual.
************************************
Passage below came from above site. You and Your Energy: Key Points
Our mental and emotional diets determine our energy levels, health and well-being much more than most people realize.
Look at life as an energy economy game.
Each day, ask, “Are my energy expenditures – actions, reactions, thoughts and feelings – productive or nonproductive?
During the course of my day, have I accumulated more stress or more peace?
Keeping an asset/deficit balance sheet even for a few days will give you an extremely clear picture of where and how you’re adding to your energy account and where and how you’re overdrawing it.
When we consciously evoke core heart feelings, we nourish our bodies at every level. Like quantum nutrients, core heart feelings keep our cells regenerating.

***Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ*** bookmarkThe Heart’s Intuitive Intelligence: A path to personal, social and global coherenceVIDEO The Spiritual Heart — is in a way a little like a smart phone, invisibly connecting us to a large network of information. It is through an unseen energy that the heart emits that humans are profoundly connected to all living things. The energy of the heart literally links us to each other. Every person’s heart contributes to a ‘collective field environment.’ This short video explains the importance of this connection and how we each add to this collective energy field. The energetic field of the heart even connects us with the earth itself. 7 min 19 sec
The heart is in a constant two-way dialogue with the brain. But, McCraty explains, the heart and cardiovascular system are sending far more signals to the brain than the brain is sending to the heart. Full Article Speaking from the Heart Mind of the Placebo Real Drugs for Imaginary Diseases

For the past decade Dr. Dominique Surel has been advising individuals in making intuitive decisions. Through her strategy work, which involves talking to high-level decision-makers, she noticed that most of these individuals rely on their intuition, even though they may not consciously realize it, or if they do, may not be able to articulate exactly what this means. She then came up with the concept that if individuals could understand the nature of intuition, learn how to develop this innate skill, and use it in conjunction with the left-brain functions, this would create an extremely powerful decision-making tool.
After more research which included studying scientific articles and abstracts on the subject, Dr. Dominique Surel developed her own methodology to teach the art and science of intuitive thinking. The added value of this training is the sharpening of the mind and a significant increase in the level of creativity.

The Institute of HeartMath is an internationally recognized nonprofit research and education organization dedicated to helping people reduce stress, self-regulate emotions and build energy and resilience for healthy, happy lives. Personal coherence, also known as psychophysiological coherence, refers to the synchronization of our physical, mental and emotional systems. It can be measured by our heart-rhythm patterns: The more balanced and smooth they are, the more in sync, or coherent, we are.
Personal coherence, also known as psychophysiological coherence, refers to the synchronization of our physical, mental and emotional systems. It can be measured by our heart-rhythm patterns: The more balanced and smooth they are, the more in sync, or coherent, we are.
Global coherence refers to the mental, physical, emotional and spiritual well-being of the greater community of human beings, while acting in concert with their own hearts, each other and nation to nation in harmony with our living planet. HeartMath believes coherence on a grand scale is highly achievable when large numbers of people focus their heart intelligence on a common goal.
By using your heart as your compass, you can see more clearly which direction to go to stop self-defeating behavior. If you take just one mental or emotional habit that really bothers or drains you and apply heart intelligence to it, you’ll see a noticeable difference in your life.Doc Childre and Howard Martin

I define happiness as a kind of resourcefulness. It’s a sense of resiliency and the ability to meet things without being defined by them. It’s a source of profound strength inside ourselves, which we don’t always realize we have. Also, happiness is our connection to one another, so we don’t feel so cut off and alone.Sharon Salzberg
Viewpoint Of A Life Of A Happy Woman Keith Garrick
I am a vibrational being and everything is vibrational. I now experience outrageous JOY! I see beauty, harmony, health, wealth all about me. I touch wealth, excellence, sweetness. I taste sweetness, deliciousness, wholeness. I feel balance, energy, happiness, enthusiasm, passion, triumph. I smell cleanliness, freshness, sweetness, spiciness. I hear harmony, melody, beauty, softness, power.
I now release resistance, and consciously allow my connection to “Source” more of the time, being mindful of the connection.
I am the deliberate creator of my own reality.
I ask through my attention, my desiring, feeling it in my being – and oral or written words are unnecessary I desire this, I adore this, and I appreciate this. I expect the best. I am happy with what I am and with what I have, while at the same time eager for more

textileRef:90614899159b9d9ee406c6:linkStartMarker:“quoteThe old spiritual paradigm focuses on tearing things down, whereas the new era of spirituality invites a more miraculous depth of transformation by building yourself up. Whether the focus is on dissolving illusion, duality, the ego, or unconscious belief patterns, there is no way to tear anything down without ripping your innocence apart in the process. Instead of having anything to resolve, process, maintain, or remember, it is the activity of building yourself up that raises your vibration to bring your highest qualities to life. This includes loving what arises, viewing life through the eyes of beauty, and celebrating the success of what you are doing right in any given moment. When building yourself up replaces any tendency to tear anything down, you will no longer manufacture erroneous symptoms to overcome. As this occurs, you free yourself from believing that spiritual evolution can be earned, when it exists as a truth you are free to remember by declaring it so. This is the way of heart-centered consciousness. “ ***~Matt Kahn~***”:https://www.facebook.com/mattkahn site

This Collection of Long Music Playlists is Perfect for your daily Meditation and Relaxation. A lot of music out there for meditation and relaxation is too busy and distracting.The music from these videos is light, beautiful, with calming sounds (some with binaural brainwaves and nature sounds) that does not distract you from focusing on what you want to achieve. A Daily 1 Hour Instrumental Playlist can be used for background music with the following intentions:
Meditation and Healing: The music we create is perfect for Deepak Chopra meditations, buddhist meditation, zen meditation, mindfulness meditation, Eckhart Tolle meditation. Influences used in this type of music are mainly from Japanese meditation music, Indian meditation music, Native American music and African Meditation Music. Some benefits from using it are: It will cleanse the Chakras, open the Third Eye and increase Transcendental Meditation skills. The work of Byron Katie, Sedona Method, Silva Method and the Secret highlights the fact that healing can occur through the use of mind and being in the now. Healing Meditation can be practised using this music for best results.
Yoga and Massage: The music is really useful in yoga for beginners, yoga exercises, yoga chants influenced by Indian songs, African music, soothing music that has a calming effect.

Binaural Mind States: Many of the tracks include Binaural Brain Waves that can be used to enter different mind frequencies. For instance it can be used for studying music, revision for when you need to be creative, focused and have good concentration. Many people find Brainwave entrainment useful for deep sleep to help you fall asleep easily, and also have enough rest to start the day fresh. As mentioned before, Binaural Brainwaves can be used for meditation, study music, creativity, deep sleep and many more benefits. Many mothers use it for baby music, lullabies to help baby sleep.
Note from Phil Newton’s Blog: Requirements Paper Based – The main reasons for this is that I find it much easier to modify a paper based system “on the fly”. The other main reason is that I find paper to be more rewarding to use when ticking things off. It also means I don’t need to switch the computer on first thing in the morning, which would stop the “I’ll just check my email” phase that can last hours.
Printable – As much fun as it was to draw all that stuff, it really needs to be printable so I can stick it in a binder and save myself some time.
Bigger System – Ideally it should cover my long term goals as well as my weekly ones, and also my affirmations and intentions. These items should be easy to access so that I don’t overlook them. There should also be the potential to add slots for my 30 day trials.
Points Tracking – Points tracking worked well in previous versions of my progress tracker, so I’ll be keeping it.
Space for Reflection – There should be space to write down what worked and what didn’t work, which I should be able to put in a stack and review when my monthly/quarterly goal sessions come around. There’s not much point in writing these things down if I won’t be using them.
Weekly Goal Tracking – There should be a space to monitor the progress of my top three goals.
Weekly Review Checklist – The weekly sheet should have a checklist for completing my GTD weekly review. This is more of a system to help me get into the habit of performing a weekly review.

Well-known physician and author Christiane Northrup strongly encourages gratitude of all types. She reminds us, “No matter what’s going on in the world, the economy, or the news, you have the power within you to create the biochemistry of gratitude right now.” Dr. Northrup explains that when you hold feelings of thankfulness for at least 15 to 20 seconds, a variety of subtle and beneficial physiological changes take place in your body:
Levels of the stress hormones cortisol and norepinephrine decrease, producing a cascade of beneficial metabolic changes, such as an enhanced immune system.
Coronary arteries relax, thus increasing the blood supply to your heart.
Heart rhythm becomes more harmonious, positively affecting your mood and all bodily organs.
Breathing becomes deeper, thus raising the oxygen level of your tissues.
So spend some time feeling gratitude for your body, for your family and friends, for all that is wonderful in your life. It will pay off in better health! ***~Prepared by Sam Quick, Ph.D., Human Development and Family Relations Specialist, and Alex Lesueur, Jr., M.S.L.S, Staff Support Associate.~*** UK Extension’s Universe of PossibilitiesTM: Skills for Creating Happiness and Blessing Others is an educational series containing 10 modules.

** quoteExperiencing and expressing gratitude is an important part of any spiritual practice. It opens the heart and activates positive emotion centers in the brain. Regular practice of gratitude can change the way our brain neurons fire into more positive automatic patterns. The positive emotions we evoke can soothe distress and broaden our thinking patterns so we develop a larger and more expansive view of our lives. Gratitude is an emotion of connectedness, which reminds us we are part of a larger universe with all living things.piece written by by Melanie Greenberg, Ph.D. who is is a clinical psychologist, life coach, and expert on life change, health psychology, integrative & behavioral medicine, chronic stress and pain, who has published her own research in academic journals. Previously a Professor, she is now an influential practicing psychologist, speaker, and media consultant

~ Each day I choose to see things from the most optimistic perspective.
~ I can round up better thoughts whenever I choose,because I am deliberate creator.
Here is my wish for you and every other child, woman, and man on the face of the earth: Spend one week saying only kind, caring things to yourself. Say thank you at least ten times an hour, direct five toward yourself and five to the world at large. Compliment yourself (and others) each time an effort is made. Notice all the wonderful qualities and characteristics about yourself and those around you. One week. You will never go back. And your whole life will be a glorious meditation.Cheri Huber
When confronted with a situation that appears fragmented or impossible, step back, close your eyes, and envision perfection where you saw brokenness. Go to the inner place where there is no problem, and abide in the consciousness of well-being.Alan Cohen

A depth returns to your life.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Trigger Words ***~affirmyourlife.blogspot.com~***
There are many wonderful ways to begin affirmations…Here are some ideas for starters
Write your own♥ affirmations:
Write what is true for you. Decide which words best reflect your goal/s. Your words need to be emotionally charged and true for you. Have fun experimenting and creating your own affirmations. Here are some affirmation starters to get you going:
When we need to do some work in a particular area, we can affirm any spiritual quality with one word. For example, when we feel restless, we can talk to our body. It will take instructions. We can give the body a one-word command such as “relax,” “harmony,” “balance,” or “rhythm.” We can talk to our mind. Eventually it will listen. We can think, “patience,” “peace,” or “poise.” When someone is giving us a hard time, we can affirm, “understanding,” “compassion,” or “forgiveness.” ***~Dr. Phillip Shapiro~***
to be continued…
I’m duplicating from some busy threads I’ve posted. Affirmations are all about repetition(: AGoodVibeEnthusiast
I will make happiness a worthy goal, for achieving it is entirely within my power.
I will use my feelings to tell me when things aren’t working for me
I will let go of what I cannot change: other people, the past, the future.
I will believe that all people are equally valuable and worthy by virtue of being human, and that makes me valuable and worthy. I will accept that I don’t have to be perfect, I don’t have to meet anyone else’s expectations or needs to be a worthy and lovable person. And they don’t have to meet mine.
I will focus on what I can change—my thoughts, beliefs, expectations, and behavior, which will change how I feel
I will not judge others (or myself) because it is harsh and destructiveWhen we attach value to those perceptions (better than/worse than) and rank our comparisons, we become judgmental. Even when I win the comparison contest, I find I’ve lost, just because I played
I will appreciate the moment.
I will focus on what I have so that I experience abundance, remembering that unhappy people focus on what they want, and they feel deprived.

** You simply will not be the same person two months from now after consciously giving thanks each day for the abundance that exists in your life. And you will have set in motion an ancient spiritual law: the more you have and are grateful for, the more will be given you.Sarah Ban Breathnach on giving thanks for 2 months
** If you will buy a new notebook, and call it your Book of Positive Aspects, and spend 10 minutes each day writing positive aspects about your home, your body, your work, your relationships…If you will wake up every morning acknowledging that you have re-emerged into the physical and that today you will look for reasons to feel good…And if you will pay attention to the way you are feeling, and utilize the process of pivoting,it is our absolute promise to you, that — within 30 days — you will see such a dramatic turn of events in your life experience, that you will not believe you are the same person.whatanicewebsiteAbe inspired writing positive aspects for 30 days for 10 minutes a day
Indeed, it’s quite simple: We can harness the brain’s plasticity by training our brain to make positive patterns more automatic. When we practice looking for and being more aware of positive aspects of life, we fight off the brain’s natural tendency to scan for and spot the negatives. Naturally we bring ourselves into better balance.
diagram Scan for the 3 daily positives. At the end of each day, make a list of three specific good things that happened that day and reflect on what caused them to happen. The good things could be anything — bumping into an old friend, a positive remark from someone at work, a pretty sunset. Celebrating small wins also has a proven effect of powering motivation and igniting joy. As you record your good things daily, the better you will get and feel. At the end of the day, make a list of 3 positives which occurred. whole article link ► The Happiness Effect ► You May Also Enjoy These Links: Happiness Diary —Keith Garrick [wonderful site] LIFEMANAGEMENTALLIANCE -CREATETHELIFEYOULOVE Gratitude Journal —Keith Garrick 101 reasons To Journal

Often we discover what we love to do in life by living…being spontaneous…
By knowing what you enjoy you are consciously creating a life of your dreams.
No one is saying the tasks we often in engage in are 100% fun…and certainly not all of the time. Though, the more we are in touch with what makes us happy…the more we can be responsible for our own happiness and somehow thread them (whenever possible) through our daily life(:
Take time to recall what you enjoy. It’s a good thing to know(: Appreciating˚

***Rules for Being Human***
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷYou will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it will be yours for the entire time around.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷYou will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called “life.” Each day in this school, you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like some of the lessons, or think them irrelevant and stupid.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷThere are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is the process of trial and error, experimentation. The “failed” experiments are as much a part of the process as experiments that ultimately “work.”
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷA lesson is repeated until learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can then go to the next lesson.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ“There” is no better than “here.” When your “there” has become “here,” you will simply obtain another “there” that will, again, look better than “here.”
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷOthers are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷWhat you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need.. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷYour answers lie inside you. The answer’s to life’s questions lie inside you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄ƷYou will forget all this. – Anonymous

** quoted from their site: Cozi is a free online organizer that helps families manage crazy schedules, track shopping lists and to do lists, organize household chores, stay in communication and share memories—all in one place.
** People have accused us of being fanatically family focused, and you know what? They’re right. From our very beginning in 2005, we’ve been all about families. When we started Cozi, we were just a small group of Microsoft and Amazon veterans—all with kids of our own—looking for a way to balance our busy family schedules and create more harmony at home. So we pooled our collective knowledge and experience to create something special. Something that would make it easy and fun for families to juggle everything they have to do. Not just our families, but families everywhere.
** We know every family is different, but we all have one thing in common: we’re crazy-busy. Cozi is designed to make it easier to manage everything we have to do. Cozi tracks appointments and activities, simplifies shopping lists and chores, and makes it easy for everyone to communicate with each other. Even when schedules change, Cozi is there making sure all the moving pieces fit together at the end of the day. When we make life easier for you and your family, we’re happy. We invite you to simplify family life with Cozi.
** 60 min silent timer ~~ ✰~~ There are some great timers already posted on Bmindful/Internet,though this one appealed to my inner child(: 30 sec timer [also makes a great auditory metronome]
…….Use an audible second-ticking clock or a metronome stroking at 60 beats per minute. Assume a comfortable position in a chair or a bed, and achieve a self-hypnotic state. After getting into a deeply relaxed state, your heartbeat will entrain itself to the slow rhythm of 60 beats per minute. Concentrate on deep rhythmic breathing and clear your mind to allow your brain waves to also slow down.
…….You can memorize and say the following statements to yourself or you can put them on a cassette tape for playback when you’re relaxed.
….Now begin using the following suggestions on yourself: 1) I am feeling good. I am feeling wonderful.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 2) The beats are slowing now — slower – slower.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 3) The time between each beat is seeming longer and longer.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 4) I am relaxed and I have lots of time.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 5) Time is only relative to what I want it to be. ~~ ✰~~ 6) Each stroke is further and further apart now.

** * ~~ ✰~~ 8) I feel so relaxed and at peace with myself.

** * ~~ ✰~~ 10) Each beat of the metronome feels distantly separated. ……Repeat the above suggestions or similar ones over and over to yourself until you “feel” that each click of the metronome is spaced between 2 – 4 minutes apart. Bring into mental focus the material you want to review and say the following:
** * ~~ ✰~~ 1) I have plenty of time to review this.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 2) Every time I do this, I improve myself and my performance.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 3) I am relaxed and taking my time.

** * ~~ ✰~~ 5) I am feeling good and experiencing no hurry.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 6) I have all the time that I need to accomplish this review.
** * ~~ ✰~~ 7) I am completing my review. …….At this suggestive state of mind, you can review any material you wish in a matter of seconds over and over again. By being relaxed and saying to yourself that you have lots of time, your mind does indeed ‘create’ lots of time.
** * ~~ ✰~~ You work at optimal levels of efficiency when you are relaxed and enjoying yourself.
** * ~~ ✰~~ The more you practice this exercise, the easier it will become. Bring yourself out of the self-hypnotic state by counting backwards from 10 to 1 and then progressively awaken. Always give yourself a post-hypnotic suggestion that the next time that you want to experience self-hypnotic time distortion, it will be easier and faster to undergo. You can even create a tape for yourself with the above suggestions. mind-course.com

I have no fear in looking backward or forward, but realize the eternal day in which I now live. Today is big with hope fulfilled, with love and life well-lived. Tomorrow will provide its own blessings. ***~Ernest Holmes~***

~~ ✰ ~~ Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. The world you desired can be won. It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.Ayn Rand
There is a basic law that like attracts like. Negative thinking definitely attracts negative results. Conversely, if a person habitually thinks optimistically and hopefully, his positive thinking sets in motion creative forces – and success, instead of eluding him, flows toward him.

***some quotes from _BUILDING SELF-ESTEEM Second Edition By L.S. Barksdale_*** which help with detachment…
Comparing myself with another’s personality, conduct or accomplishments as a gauge of my worth is absolutely meaningless.(No two people have had the same heredity, Inner Knowing, and total life experience.)
No one can possibly put himself in another’s place as a valid point of reference, for no one else in the entire world has the same degree of awareness.
I am not my awareness—I am that which is aware.
I am not my mind—my mind is but the human computer that receives and evaluates the data of my five senses, my instincts and intuition
I am a nonphysical essence—a unique and precious being, inviolable, invincible and eternal, ever doing the best I can, ever growing in wisdom and love.

** The things I create are even better than I imagine them to be.
** * ***~from The Love Foundation~*** transcript of ‘Embracing Change [ With Love] above:
Harold W. Becker shares we are such amazing beings of infinite capacity and potential. Our boundless imagination, coupled with our wondrous will, allows us to bring our ideas into outer reality. Through our thoughts and feelings, we can literally create and experience that which we dream of in our heart of hearts. With patience and trust we manifest whatever we truly seek to experience on this grand adventure.
He continues whether we realize it or not, we create this way every moment. Yet, so often we become mired in habit and routine and stop being present with our imagination and the wisdom of our heart. Instead, we allow outmoded and outdated beliefs to take over rather than being aware of our creative choice. The unquestioned stream of mental thoughts, subtle notions of our emotional disposition, and very often, the outer suggestions of others, begin to dictate our identity, our actions and reactions.
That is, until something comes along to awaken us. This is frequently in the form of an accident, illness, unexpected event or circumstances that instantly disrupts our routine. If we are deeply rooted in habit, mentally or emotionally focused in the past or future, or simply unaware of our own creative spirit, this experience is usually met with great resistance and defiance by our outer personality or ego. The defenses, justification, victimhood and righteousness are often our immediate reaction to the fear and doubt that comes instantly to the surface. We become afraid of the change that has already happened.
How would our lives be different if we chose to be present in each moment knowing that change is constant and the very nature of life itself? What would happen if we actually embraced change as a wonderful opportunity to restore our creative capacity and begin anew with love?
Life is fluid, expansive and recreating itself every moment; we need only pay attention to the natural world to realize this. From the cycle of the seasons to the ever flowing rivers, the ceaseless life giving energy of the sun, the acorn becoming the mighty oak, or the rhythmic pulse of our own heartbeat, nature understands and embraces change. No two moments are exactly the same and love is forever present.
Always remember who you are a beautiful and outrageously creative being capable of manifesting a world filled with peace, joy and unconditional love. Now is the perfect moment to imagine a new potential and choose it for yourself and the world around you.

QUOTE by Virginia Satir (American Psychologist and Educator, 1916-1988) “I am Me. In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me. Everything that comes out of me is authentically mine, because I alone chose it — I own everything about me: my body, my feelings, my mouth, my voice, all my actions, whether they be to others or myself. I own my fantasies, my dreams, my hopes, my fears. I own my triumphs and successes, all my failures and mistakes. Because I own all of me, I can become intimately acquainted with me. By so doing,I can love me and be friendly with all my parts. I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other aspects that I do not know — but as long as I am friendly and loving to myself, I can courageously and hopefully look for solutions to the puzzles and ways to find out more about me…..However I look and sound, whatever I say and do, and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time is authentically me. If later some parts of how I looked, sounded, thought, and felt turn out to be unfitting, I can discard that which is unfitting, keep the rest, and invent something new for that which I discarded. I can see, hear, feel, think, say, and do. I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be productive, and to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me. I own me, and therefore, I can engineer me. I am me, and I am Okay.” by Abe…contributed by Mara and appreciated by others…myself included…another positivity-believer member of bmindful(: “WHEN YOUAWAKEN IN THEMORNING,LIE IN YOURBEDANDMOVETHROUGHYOURMINDTHISLIST OF THINGSYOUAREAPPRECIATING,AND THEN GO RIGHTFROMTHERE TO BRUSHINGYOURTEETHANDDOINGWHATEVERYOUNEED TO DO IMMEDIATELY.

The modalities of awakened doing are acceptance, enjoyment, and enthusiasm. Each one represents a certain vibrational frequency of consciousness. You need to be vigilant to make sure that one of them operates whenever you are engaged in doing anything at all – from the most simple task to the most complex. If you are not in the state of either acceptance, enjoyment, or enthusiasm, look closely and you will find that you are creating suffering for yourself and others. EckhartTolle
The Universe is abundant with everything that you want. It’s not testing you. It’s benevolently providing for you. But you are the orchestrater. You are the definer, and you do it through your joyous anticipation. If there is an emotion that you are wanting to foster, that would serve you very, very well, it is positive expectation. It is excited anticipation.Abe threadAcceptance Enthusiasm & Enjoyment
an excerpts to come from the above link: ….we’ve been nursed on the belief that time is one of those few utterly reliable and objective things in life – it is also strangely empowering to think that the very phenomenon depicted as the unforgiving dictator of life is something we might be able to shape and benefit from.
“We construct the experience of time in our minds, so it follows that we are able to change the elements we find troubling – whether it’s trying to stop the years racing past, or speeding up time when we’re stuck in a queue, trying to live more in the present, or working out how long ago we last saw our old friends. Time can be a friend, but it can also be an enemy. The trick is to harness it, whether at home, at work, or even in social policy, and to work in line with our conception of time. Time perception matters because it is the experience of time that roots us in our mental reality. Time is not only at the heart of the way we organize life, but the way we experience it” Claudia Hammond

Excerpts from Managing Time Pressure and Overwhelm-HEARTMATH What Is Overwhelm? In this fast-paced age of the Internet we hear that every minute counts and speed and efficiency are critical. Day after day, week after week, year after year, all this pressure to succeed, achieve, meet goals, make a contribution begins to build up inside of us until one day we are locked in the throes of overwhelm, numb to its debilitating effects on our bodies and quality of life. Information overload – from the media, our jobs, Madison Avenue, junk mail, e-mail, the telephone, political campaigns, charity campaigns, religious campaigns and so much more – often jumbles our thoughts, makes us forgetful and frays our nerves. Overcare, the sense that you have to take care of everyone because no one else will or can, ambition that leads many to burn the candle at both ends, and performance anxiety stemming from the fear that not doing more will cost you your job, are but a few of the byproducts of overwhelm.
Many people experience relentless overwhelm every day and fret over how they can get though everything they have to do. They trudge on because they believe they must and that things will never change. Chronic overwhelm is one of the major causes of anxiety and anxiety disorders. When you’re overwhelmed, your mind overloads with all that’s going on. It takes a toll on your nervous, immune and hormonal systems, and left unattended likely will produce cycles of anxiety, fatigue and temporary despair. People on this kind of overload are more susceptible to disease and they age faster
What we know today about what the heart knows is truly exciting and the implications are great. Relying on a variety of data from numerous studies and experiments, particularly heart-rhythm-pattern measurements, IHM’s findings point to the human heart as playing a key role in the intuitive process, and a recent study concludes the heart actually receives intuitive information faster than the brain – by a second or slightly more. This would seem to attribute some independent intelligence to the heart: In fact, the concept of a “heart brain” is widely accepted today”
It has been established that the heart has a powerful electromagnetic field and its own complex nervous system and circuitry that generates up to an estimated 60 times the electrical amplitude of the brain. The electromagnetic signal our heart rhythms produce actually can be measured in the brain waves of people around us. It is no wonder that the findings by researchers at HeartMath and elsewhere conclude the heart has its own organized intelligence network enabling it to act independently, learn, remember and produce feelings – all attributes which, until recently, were nearly universally held to be solely in the brain’s dominion.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ˚ ✰。˚ ˚ღ。 Affirmations Article [Louise Hay] When I talk about doing affirmations, I mean consciously choosing words that will either help eliminate something from your life or help create something new in your life. Every thought you think and every word you speak is an affirmation. All of our self-talk, our internal dialogue, is a stream of affirmations. You’re using affirmations every moment whether you know it or not. You’re affirming and creating your life experiences with every word and thought.to read more
Santana Today is that day I have been joyously choosing to have.
~~ ✰~~ Making Love To Time by Tara Mohr Yesterday, I was listening to a beautiful interview with the late Irish poet John O’Donahue.
He said, “One of the biggest problems of modern life is that time has become the enemy.” He spoke about how so many of us struggle with time: we struggle with how much we have, we struggle to fit things in, we complain about the lack of it.
Yes, it’s problematic that the pace and expectations of modern life leave us without time for white space, for reflection, for downtime.
Yes, “lack of time” is an ever-convenient, oft-used excuse for not following one’s passion, not doing one’s art, not tending to their spiritual lives.
But until I heard John O’Donahue say, “One of the biggest problems of modern life is that time has become the enemy,” I hadn’t realized the depth of the problem. When you set yourself up in that oppositional relationship to time, you are cutting yourself off from the very flow of life. to read article in its entirety

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The beauty of yesterday is lovely…The passionate dreams for the future… are stupendous…as long as the past,future or what we perceive as the present do not make us sideswipe the possibilities of our today.
Do you know some people cringe when they see the affirmation which is worded … TODAY IS THEBESTDAY OF MY LIFE ?
Why do you think that is? Could it be it is only our joyous memories which keep us afloat? Could it be because a projection of what we don’t want to happen is feared and will be experienced today? Could it be those dreams of our future are so enticing that today could never match up to our minds eye of the future? … a combo maybe …or something different beyond this “simplistic” dialogue?
What if we started today with the idea…that this is that best day… It is simply because as individuals we say so…and the beauty we have not yet defined will reveal itself to us. It will not discount the gratitude and appreciation of yesterday…or the enthusiasm for tomorrow…or even the avoidance of areas which require our attention. Here’s to today. Here’s to the beauty in each moment …this very moment…this very day… with great thoughts for this day… Appreciating˚ aka AGoodVibe aka SelfcareEnthusiast
entire thread is joyously under major construction much of what I will post here …is what I have favored from threads I have posted…in hopes of creating an even better boost in 1 place…when I visit. I hope you enjoy and prosper from my choices, or decide to engage deeply where your choices work special & wonderful things for you.
This intro post is the first part of my joyous editing. So once again…please enjoy my happy mess… It is a work in progress [like me/you] being a work in progress [not that we are a mess …joyous or otherwise] big grin(:

intro-post Good Morning is not a greeting, it’s a decision anonymous
Affirmations I am worthy of the happiness I consistently desire.
I consistently practice the visualization of my choosing.
** * excerpt of articleWant to be Happy. Stop Trying To be perfectThe root of the word courage is cor — the Latin word for heart. In one of its earliest forms, the word courage had a very different definition than it does today. Courage originally meant to speak one’s mind by telling all one’s heart.
** * excerpt of articleOver time, this definition has changed, and, today, courage is more synonymous with being heroic. Heroics are important and we certainly need heroes, but I think we’ve lost touch with the idea that speaking honestly and openly about who we are, about what we’re feeling, and about our experiences (good and bad) is the definition of courage.
** I trust in the ebb and flow of the universe. I trust that life’s bigger than what I can see. I trust that there is a divine order beyond my control. And I trust that no matter what happens, I will be all right ★ღ✰˚ ✰ Oprah Winfrey
** * quoteThe modalities of awakened doing are acceptance, enjoyment, andenthusiasm. Each one represents a certain vibrational frequency of consciousness.You need to be vigilant to make sure that one of themoperates whenever you are engaged in doing anything at all – from the most simple task to the most complex. If you are not in the state of either acceptance, enjoyment, or enthusiasm, look closely and you will find that you are creating suffering for yourself and others.EckhartTolle
quoteThe Universe is abundant with everything that you want. It’s not testing you. It’s benevolently providing for you. But you are the orchestrater. You are the definer, and you do it through your joyous anticipation. If there is an emotion that you are wanting to foster, that would serve you very, very well, it is positive expectation. It is excited anticipation.Abe

** * excerpt of articleEmotional Acceptancewhen you accept a negative emotion, it tends to lose its destructive power. This is surprising and counter intuitive to many people, but if you think about it for a while, you will see the logic of this approach. Swimmers who are caught in an undertow and feel themselves being dragged out to sea often panic and begin to swim against the current with all their might. Often, they fatigue, cramp and drown. To survive, such a swimmer should do the opposite—let go. Let the current take him out to sea. Within a few hundred yards the current will weaken and the swimmer can swim around and back to shore. The same with a powerful emotion: pushing against it is futile and possibly dangerous; but if you accept the emotion, it will run its course while allowing you to run yours.
** * Note To Myself: I am an auditory-sense learner & I liten to wonderful auditory affirmations with ideas which resonate for me.
** * Note To You: It is my hope that my choices are helpful to others at some time. And if not what I choose…may you always find what works for you. you
** * Your success is an “inside out” process. Everything that is occurring in your life, including in your career/professional path, is being experienced by you through the filter of your unique paradigm. That paradigm includes your beliefs about yourself, your life and your career, business and professional possibilities, which then gives rise to resulting thought patterns. All of this informs the inner dialogue you have with yourself, and heavily impacts upon your actions/behaviours in your professional life.

~~ ✰ ~~ Discipline yourself to start each day identifying something to be grateful about. The world opens to those who approach it with a grateful heart.Michael Josephson
~~ ✰ ~~ Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage, and confidence.Og Mandino
~~ ✰ ~~ When you carry a blessing-finder in your spirit you will see and discover blessings (great things) everywhere…AGoodLife˚ (aka AGoodVibe, AGoodVibeEnthusiast,SelfcareEnthusiast)

Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.William Arthur Ward
That is part of the paradox of success described in the book of the same title by John R. O’Neil. He says that the belief that every moment of our time must be somehow valuable and productive is actually pretty harmful. When you give yourself open-ended time, you can “create space for your seldom-heard desires, needs, and notions to assert themselves, and you begin creating a model for a different, more friendly relationship with time.”
Often we discover what we love to do in life by living…being spontaneous…
By knowing what you enjoy you are consciously creating a life of your dreams.
No one is saying the tasks we often in engage in are 100% fun…and certainly not all of the time. Though, the more we are in touch with what makes us happy…the more we can be responsible for our own happiness and somehow thread them (whenever possible) through our daily life(:
Take time to recall what you enjoy. It’s a good thing to know(: AGoodVibeEnthusiast

** excerpt of article ***~[article excerpt-Awakening Genius by Thomas Armstrong]~*** Joy – If genius has any core component, it is probably the experience of joy. Ask some of the great minds of our time to explain what motivates them in their work and generally you will not hear them talk about pay checks or even the Nobel Prize (though these certainly have their allure). More often they may speak somewhat mystically of an experience that sounds like joy. Young children may not be as articulate, but if they could speak about what motivates them in their most passionate play experiences they would probably speak of ‘o (they speak of it anyway through their sparkling eyes, their bouncing bodies, and their squeals of delight). As Piaget once wrote: “On seeing a baby joyfully watching the movements of his feet, one has the impression of the joy felt by a god in directing from a distance the movement of the stars.”
** Joy is something mysterious that cooks up from deep inside of us when a new connection has been made, a new insight obtained, a new feat accomplished, or a skill mastered. Such joy can be witnessed in the brilliant grin of a high school student who witnesses the invention that he’s been toiling on for the past several weeks finally work for the first time. joy is in the 7th grader who twirls across the stage in the school musical. joy shows itself in the lst grader who jumps up and down after reading his first story. The neurochemistry of the joy of teaming is still unclear-it might have something to do with neuronal connections stimulating a release of neuropeptides into the nervous system. But however it occurs, its importance cannot be underestimated. Without joy, learning is soda pop without the fizzle – flat and tasteless.
** “So much of what goes on in our society works to pressure people into meeting rigid expectations for behavior, learning, and development. The reality, though, is that individuals grow and learn in remarkably different ways. When we allow people to develop according to their natural rhythms, and learn in their own unique way, we make it possible for them to achieve a sense of meaning in their lives, and enable them to share their remarkable gifts with the broader culture, thus making the world a better place in which to live” by Thomas Armstrong – ***~http://institute4learning.com/http://institute4learning.com/~***

***BRAND NEWTHREADCREATEDFOR A BRANDNEWDAY***
I have found it is vital to start my day with a fresh start…remembering my values and refreshing them. It makes it so much easier to experience the world and allow what is important for me to permeate a slice of what works for me-mode.
Starting fresh (regularly) assists in my growth, and less likely to be influenced by anything which goes against basic values. It assists with detachment from the world…so I can reintegrate myself in a world which houses diverse personalities and ideas that others want us to own…when they do not align with ones beliefs/values
I wish I could find the source of a particular tool I use… It is using the word DISCONNECT …when desiring a quick detach from a person, place or thing which ‘works its way into my psyche’ and I choose to disallow its presence…quickly. I imagine its like Silva’s cancel cancel-method…though I’m receiving some great results with it & thought I’d share.I thank the source who posted it on the webI’m appreciative of the assistance

***_peace & harmony cards_*** by Wayne Dyer If you meet someone whose soul is not aligned with yours, send them love and move along. (I align myself with people who support my growth.)
One of the highest places you can get to is to be independent of the good opinions of others. (What other people think of me is none of my business.)
You can’t go around being what everyone wants you to be, living your life through other people’s rules, and expect to be happy and have inner peace. (I live my life in my own way.)
No one can create negativity or stress within you. Only you can do that by virtue of how you process your world. (I create the world that I live in.)
I fill myself with love, and I send that love out into the world. How others treat me is their path; how I react is mine.(Love is my gift to the world.)

** You and Your Energy: Key Points Our mental and emotional diets determine our energy levels, health and well-being much more than most people realize. Look at life as an energy economy game.
** Each day, ask, “Are my energy expenditures – actions, reactions, thoughts and feelings – productive or nonproductive?
** During the course of my day, have I accumulated more stress or more peace?
** Keeping an asset/deficit balance sheet even for a few days will give you an extremely clear picture of where and how you’re adding to your energy account and where and how you’re overdrawing it.
** When we consciously evoke core heart feelings, we nourish our bodies at every level. Like quantum nutrients, core heart feelings keep our cells regenerating.
quoteMay you not become TOO concerned with material matters, but instead place immeasurable value on the goodness in your heart. Find time each day to see beauty and love in the world around you. Realize that each person has limitless abilities, but each of us is different in our own way. What you feel you lack in the present may become one of your strengths in the future. May you see your future as one filled with promise and possibility. Learn to view everything as a worthwhile experience. May you find enough inner strength to determine your own worth by yourself, and not be dependent on another’s judgment of your accomplishments. May you always feel loved. Unknown

** Twelve Exercises for Mindful Relationships Adapted from Everyday Blessings[will add link soon] By Myla and Jon Kabat-Zinn Siri Adi Kaur Khalsa Miami Beach, Florida
~~ 1 ~~ Try to imagine the world from the other person’s point of view, purposefully letting go of your own. Do this every day for at least a few moments to remind yourself of who this person is and what he or she faces in the world.
~~ 2 ~~ Imagine how you appear, and sound, from the other person’s point of view, i.e.., how it would be to relate to you today, in this moment. How might this modify how you carry yourself in your body and in space, how you speak, what you say? How do you want to relate to this person in this moment?
~~ 3 ~~ Practice seeing the other person as perfect just the way they are. Try to stay mindful of seeing their sovereignty from moment to moment, and work at accepting them as they are when it is hardest for you to do so.
~~ 4 ~~ Be mindful of your expectations of the other person and consider whether these expectations are truly in their best interest. Also, be aware of how you communicate those expectations and how they affect the other person.
~~ 5 ~~ Practice altruism, putting the needs of the other person above your own whenever possible. Then see if there isn’t some common ground, where your true needs can also be met. You may be surprised at the overlap, especially if you are patient and strive for balance.
~~ 6 ~~ When you feel lost, or at a loss, remember to stand still. Listen to what it is being said. Meditate on the whole, by bringing your full attention to the situation at hand, to the other person, to yourself, to the community. In doing so, you may go beyond thinking, even good thinking, and perceive intuitively, with the whole of your being, what really needs to be done. If that is not clear in any moment, maybe the best thing is to not do anything until it becomes clearer. Sometimes it is good to remain silent.
~~ 7 ~~ Try embodying silent presence. This will grow out of both formal and informal mindfulness practice over time, if you attend to how you carry yourself and what you project in body, mind, and speech. Listen carefully.
~~ 8 ~~ Learn to live with tension without losing your own balance. In Zen and the Art of Archery, Eugene Herrigel describes how he was taught to stand at the point of highest tension effortlessly without shooting the arrow. At the right moment, the arrow mysteriously shoots itself. Do this by practicing moving into any moment, however difficult, without trying to change anything and without having to have a particular outcome. Simply bring your full awareness to this moment. Practice seeing that whatever comes up is workable, if you are willing to stand in this way in the present, trusting your intuition and best instincts. The other person needs you to be a center of balance and trustworthiness, a reliable landmark by which he or she can take a bearing within his or her own landscape. Arrow and target need each other. Forcing doesn’t help. They will find each other better through wise attention and patience.
~~ 9 ~~ Apologize to the other person when you have betrayed a trust in even a little way. Apologies are healing. An apology demonstrates that you have thought about the situation and have come to see it more clearly, or perhaps more from the other person’s point of view. But we have to be mindful of being “sorry” too often; it loses its meaning if we are always saying it or if we make regret into a habit. Then it can become a way for us not to take responsibility for our actions. Be aware of this. Cooking in remorse on occasion is a good meditation. Don’t shut off the stove until the meal is ready.
~~ 10 ~~ Every person is special and every person has special needs. Each sees in an entirely unique way. Hold an image of the other person in your heart. Drink in their being, wishing them well.
~~ 11 ~~ There are very important times when we need to practice being clear and strong and unequivocal with another person. Let this come as much as possible out of awareness and generosity and discernment, rather than out of fear, self-righteousness, or the desire to control. Mindful relationships do not mean being overindulgent, neglectful, or weak; nor does it mean being rigid, domineering, and controlling.
~~ 12 ~~ The greatest gift you can give another person is your self. This means that part of your work is to keep growing in self-knowledge and in awareness. We have to be grounded in the present moment to share what is deepest and best in ourselves. This is ongoing work, but it can be furthered by making a time for quiet contemplation. We only have right now. Let us use it to its best advantage, for the sake of the other person, and for our own self.

** Your subconscious mind will start to adjust your core beliefs to match your desired outcomes, but it’s a lengthy process. This is why we must consciously repeat the process. And repeat, and repeat. Core beliefs can’t be changed overnight. By repeating the process daily, we are telling are subconscious mind that we are serious about our goals – that we are committed to change. And that we are not going to give in until we get there
** Now comes the part that most people forget. How do we show our commitment to anything? How do we make changes in our life? We follow through with action! We can sit and affirm, visualize, and emotionalize all day long. But until we actually support this with action, nothing will changeChe Garman

The Heart’s Intuitive Intelligence: A path to personal, social and global coherenceVIDEO The Spiritual Heart — is in a way a little like a smart phone, invisibly connecting us to a large network of information. It is through an unseen energy that the heart emits that humans are profoundly connected to all living things. The energy of the heart literally links us to each other. Every person’s heart contributes to a ‘collective field environment.’ This short video explains the importance of this connection and how we each add to this collective energy field. The energetic field of the heart even connects us with the earth itself.

“The coincidental timing and symbolic quality of such events convince people of synchronicity. The coincidence is between a psychological situation and an outer accident, meeting, or event – in which the outer situation is a symbolic representation of the psychological struggle or conflict.
It seems to me that synchronicity is frequent, but unless an individual has some insight into the psychological situation the symbolic coincidence is not appreciated. Like ignored dreams, they have no impact.” Jean Shinoda Bolen

WHAT'S YOUR INTENTIONS? How to set intentions that work
Do you set intentions just after waking up and before getting out of your bed?
The first 20 minutes of having awakened and the last 20 minutes before going to sleep are the most powerful moments you have to influence your subconscious mind. Your brain iz in the theta brainwave state either having come out of the delta brainwave state (waking up) or going into the delta state (going to sleep) from the theta state.
When going to sleep our conscious and subconscious mind are merging together as one. For those next several hours your mind iz creating what you desire and whatever you have impressed upon it. Once you wake up and get into the alpha state and finally into the beta state your brainwaves will then be attracting all the things relevant to your intentions. Some call this "priming."
When I make this statement in my declaring my intention that I am choosing to be and going to be moving into this state of being "unbelievably blessed" I am sending out the memo to the rest of my being that we are going to shift as a whole now. They immediately start getting into alignment.

The first time I ever heard the song I'm Yours by Jason Mraz, the creator of Bmindful shared it on this site. I actually asked who's Jason Mraz...??? That has been awhile... now... because Jason Mraz became and still is 1 of my favorites for his ALIVE-tunes... and lyrics.
So many statements that can be about loving a particular other-or simply and powerfully also about loving yourself. (either way-it feels like joy-love keeping it uncomplicated & real)

Demonstrative Self LOVE IN ACTION
This loving yourself-thing has expansion like us-because we are love. I truly was lol ... because I didn't know whether to just add a pg or chapter... Because this is another level of love...
This thread is a take off of loving yourself-threads-
'the more'-my spirit has been making space for being- 'more has been arriving... coming through(:
-
to be continued...
-
Love has many dimensions, and just gets more and more beautiful (like us)
This thread is geared to our actions that are inspired by Being love, and being love to ourselves.
You can guess where the next thread is going... Though this one is our love for us/and actions that come from it(:
I am so peaceful and charged up when the energy of this topic enters my mind, body and spirit.
My message is: to honor the gifts that have been bestowed upon us, and in this case, body, your mind and your spirit... and daily miracles will be performed in all aspects of your life.
a quote that really said/says for me basically says:
-instead of things you tell yourself you have to do...think of it as things that you have the extreme privilege of being able to do.

I now want to kick off this part of my intro with ...
"ACTIONABLE GRATITUDE"
a term I coined...as the inspiration behind a life that is heart felt, spirit filled, productive...with a foundation of gratitude and appreciation for EVERYTHING!
AFFIRMATIONS
ღThe greatest gift I give others is the example of my own life working
(working-basically means- doing the next right thing-feel guided to do/feeling the question answered -What would a person (who really loves themselves do for this moment in time))
ღI Am whole, perfect, strong,powerful, loving, harmonious and happy
ღToday is a wonderful day. I am grateful. I am thankful. I am seeing those things that make me feel good today.
ღI Am loving how much I accomplish in ways that serve the highest good.
ღI easily create my home just the way I truly desire for my now, and for my needs of
the future
ღMy body, mind, spirit is joyously taken care of.

Yes, we are love... so we have the perfect substance to co-create our best life.

So what is "actionable gratitude" ?
A tinch of a life experience:
It is how I live my life today.
I understand that God gave me a body.
I was shown when my health was not ok/ what it was like for it not to function ...and not know what exactly would work again...
When I recovered (better than completely)...I wasn't just not unwell, I was truly off the chart healthy, that doctors were taking notes...asking me what I did.
This is the honest goodness truth. After much acceptance & surrendering...and belief in a Good Life... I turned into a little body builder and a disciplined high nutrition-foodie. Mind you... this behavior took place when I could barely move and had lost my sense of taste ... (and that was only the beginning).
I got to the place of knowing what was right for me. I was shown all I was shown so I could joyfully, gratefully honor every thing I was privileged to do/enjoy in life no matter what it was.I loved myself completely demonstratively. I was willing to do whatever it took ...
The tools I found worked are not expensive...or 'far out' .
The result was healing from any remnant of life that needed healing...because I knew if I didn't have me, nothing did exist for me.
So where am I today and why create this thread for myself & to share with you?

1. How important is your health to you?Do you like to know more about food and its components?
2. How has ideas of taking care of you changed since you were much younger?/Is it more or less important ?

For me, today its about doing what is truly meaningful for me - from an even more 'energetic loving place'
I have known how to take good care of me, hence my alias selfcare(: Though the feeling I wanted more of -is a particular way... more routines...that I desired to take better care of me.
I love so much what God has given me -mind, body and spirit... that honoring this in myself and others is self-love to me.
~
I have a full life ...I love... and I had taken break from some things... because I was enjoying the Being-mode.
I am sure you can all attest to this 'place' of where you feel you can 'touch your soul'
->(the place without attaching yourself to specifics.... without the desire to label 'everything... (it brings about the feelings/experiences of those infinite possibilities ... )
Just taking it all in, and finding out so much love is truly everywhere ...
I'm grateful to have allowed that much time for 'all just to be' . Living my life from there had me more peak experiences ...no matter what I was doing.
I had a 'feeling' - 'being' would = 'good things'. Though now I can say with certainty life Is what I make it without 'MAKING IT' (: Allowing creates.
I Am back in touch with my spirit the way I've desired. Thank you God!
Bottom line, I wanted to get back to the part of me that flowed from not only high energy and enthusiasm when I took care of me-well. I wanted to remember why I was doing the good-things I've learned that were 'good for me' and feel it. I have before and it was a whole-person rush.
These routines didn't happen over night.... They were on purpose from my heart over time...
I knew it was time again -and not just in spurts- though more regularly I wanted this self-care flow.
Winning starts with beginning. ========================
I begin. I continue. I trust The Process. All is well. Thank you God. Amen.

Values as the Highest Psychological Form for Accomplishment
We can see a continuum of psychological forms from data to values. Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Data are mental facts derived from sense observation. Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Information is data organized by the physical mind into meaningful relationships. Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Thoughts are specific conclusions or observations drawn from the information. Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ideas are generalized conceptions derived from specific thoughts. Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Opinions are thoughts which the mind endorses and the ego identifies as its own. Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Beliefs are ideas which the mind endorses and the mental ego identifies with as true for its life. Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Attitudes are opinions endorsed and energized by the vital ego. Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Values are idealized conceptions that are endorsed by the personality. ***_In terms of accomplishment, thoughts are mental forms of energy which do not necessarily lead to action. Ideas carry the energy of mental understanding. Opinions carry the force of mental conviction. Attitudes carry the vital force of our emotional endorsement. Values carry the power of psychological commitment and determination. Values issue from a deeper or higher center of motivation in our personalities and therefore carry far greater power than our opinions and attitudes._*** ROYPOSNER power of values

Forgiveness is taking responsibility for how you feel now Let Go/Health Benefits of Forgiveness 5 Health Benefits of Forgiveness The Takeaway True forgiveness is easier said than done. It can be difficult, especially if someone truly upset you in a way that contradicted your values and morals. However, it’s important to remember that holding that grudge is not going to fix anything. That hot coal you’re holding onto is just burning yourself.
When you are out in nature, find a comfortable spot and take a seat either on the ground or on a bench, if there’s one available.
This is a heart opening exercise to begin communing with your surroundings. As you say these words aloud, yet softly, bring to mind the visions of them and let your eyes settle upon the ones you find in your surroundings and once again let your feelings flow from your heart :
“ Thank you home, for allowing me to live within your walls. Thank you for giving me shelter, warmth, and security. Thank you for allowing me to live my life in your womb, for staying strong and sturdy, for supporting me, and for your beauty.
Thank you earth, for the land that I live on and for allowing me to steward life with you. Thank you for allowing me to walk upon soil, cultivate you, and live in partnership with you. thank you for supporting my home and my family.
Thank you plants, minerals, and animals that dwell on the land that I steward. Thank you for allowing me to experience your beauty, share in your wonderment of life, and for the honor of living with all of you on this earth. Thank you for the wisdom and joy you bring to humanity.
I honor you. “
You may perform this meditation as often as you feel drawn to or are guided to. You may even practice it when you are indoors, when weather doesn’t permit you to be outdoors. Your connection to Nature and All That Is is eternal. It is your intent that allows the re-connection.

☼Remind yourself, to be kind toward yourself, in all the choices you make about your daily life. Wayne Dyer
Words (stories) produce thoughts. Thoughts produce feelings. Feelings produce decisions. Decisions produce actions. Actions produce habits. Habits create character. Character determines your destiny. From Kathy Paauw’s Book ☼The Music of Your Heart
You get exposed to more information in one day than a well-educated individual living in the 18th century encountered in a lifetime. You have up to 80,000 thoughts a day. You are bombarded with 4,000 messages daily in your environment. It’s no wonder that you forget things! Carmen Coker
☼No one can create negativity or stress within you. Only you can do that by virtue of how you process your world. Wayne Dyer
___________________
☼When you are really in the flow with your Inner Being, ideas come easily—they are implemented easily. It’s fun while you are in the process of them, and it doesn’t matter how they unfold; and nothing can go wrong, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t get it done, it’s just fun to do it. Your Inner Being feels no limit. So, anything that feels like limits is something that you have self-imposed. Abraham
☼Things are coming into your experience in response to your vibration. Your vibration is offered because of the thoughts you are thinking, and you can tell by the way you feel what kinds of thoughts you are thinking. Find good-feeling thoughts and good-feeling manifestations must follow Make a decision to look for the best-feeling aspects of whatever you must give your attention to, and otherwise look only for good-feeling things to give your attention to—and your life will become one of increasingly good-feeling aspects. []Abraham

HEALTHY MIND PLATTERSeven daily essential mental activities to optimize brain matter and create well-being
It essentially discusses balance.
Here is part
“mental nutrients” that your brain and relationships need to function at their best. By engaging every day in each of these servings, you promote integration in your life and enable your brain to coordinate and balance its activities. These essential mental activities strengthen your brain's internal connections and your connections with other people and the world around you.
We're not suggesting specific amounts of time for this recipe for a healthy mind, as each individual is different, and our needs change over time too. The point is to become aware of the full spectrum of essential mental activities, and as with essential nutrients, make sure that at least every day we are bringing the right ingredients into our mental diet, even if for just a bit of time. Just as you wouldn't eat only pizza every day for days on end, we shouldn't just live on focus time alone with little time for sleep. The key is balancing the day with each of these essential mental activities. Mental wellness is all about reinforcing our connections with others and the world around us; and it is also about strengthening the connections within the brain itself. When we vary the focus of attention with this spectrum of mental activities, we give the brain lots of opportunities to develop in different ways.
Threads On Wonderful Healthy Necessary Self Love(:
A Long While Ago...I once stumbled on this (on some Abe-related site).
excerpt of an article :
Recently, I received a pamphlet outlining the teachings of Reb Nachman of Breslov (b.1772- d.1810). It was entitled “Be Happy”. I was amazed at the synchronicity of the message of his teachings with the teachings of Abraham. Here are some quotes from the pamphlet:
Through joy, you free your soul from all kinds of inner problems, both physical and spiritual.
Happiness is a fire burning to ash all the impurities in a person’s system and in the entire universe.
Create joy for yourself. Dance or sing or do at least one thing every hour that makes you feel joyful. Continue to increase it, until very soon, your whole day will be filled with happiness. This way you will be able to achieve your purpose in life, both physically and spiritually. Joy is a person’s existence, so do whatever works for you in order to be happy the whole day.
The greater the happiness you experience, the more you will be filled with spiritual holiness and succeed in everything. This is because happiness is the essence of a human being, both spiritually and physically. It is his essence in both this world and
the World to Come.
Problems are attracted to a person who is depressed and filled with bitterness. However, if you decide to fill yourself with joy, doing whatever you can in order to accomplish this – even to lift your feet and dance in joy – all judgments against you will be removed.
G-d is the very essence of joy.
Happiness contracts and constructs funnels, and channels G-d’s light so that it will reach even the smallest and most fallen; even the most lost and the most pitiable.
And so, whatever level you may be at this moment – even be it low, degraded and fallen, strengthen yourself to tremendous joy. As a result G-d’s light will shine on you right where you are. Then you will rise from your lowliness and desperation.
Today is a good day, and it continues to get better and better.
I love being in such wonderful harmony with my values
I can truly see what I Am desiring in my minds eye.
I Am always allowing a better way.
I am amazed how much I accomplish in ways that serve my highest good.
Today is a good day, and it continues to get better and better.

“We all have the power to transform ourselves and consciously choose something that does not already exist. At any moment we can create something beyond what is.” ~ Julie Ann Turner
What is a Self-care Enthusiast? by Lynda Monk (reflective journaling) Soulful self-care is the way in which you care for and nourish the essence of who you are – past what you do, beyond all the roles that define you, it is how you turn inward to know, grow and care for yourself. if you desire->read article in full
“There is no formula to relationships. They have to be negotiated in loving ways, with room for both parties, what they want and what they need, what they can do and what their life is like.” Tuesdays With Morrie p.177,178)
quote♥The point of marriage is not to create a quick commonality by tearing down all boundaries; on the contrary, a good marriage is one in which each partner appoints the other to be the guardian of his solitude, and thus they show each other the greatest possible trust. A merging of two people is an impossibility, and where it seems to exist, it is a hemming-in, a mutual consent that robs one party or both parties of their fullest freedom and development. But once the realisation is accepted that even between the closest people infinite distances exist, a marvelous living side-by-side can grow up for them, if they succeed in loving the expanse between them, which gives them the possibility of always seeing each other as a whole and before an immense sky.”RAINERMARIARIL
I love the quote above. It reminds me how I don't have to own or buy 'everything'. I simply enjoy my experiences. It makes me feel like I have everything!
Although knowing I will have what I desire also works for me...(:

The Power of Imagination
“I think of affirmations and visualizations as tapping into the power of the imagination, which is a generator and transformer, a force that precedes and shapes who we become, and what we create and achieve. Whenever we attempt something new or difficult, we have to be able to imagine it before it becomes possible. It’s the combination of inspiration and perspiration that brings about tangible results.” Jean Shinoda Bolen
Affirmations and visualizations tap into my imagination, which is a generator AND a transformer for my great life.
Here is an upbeat I like to start my work day with
You can start utilizing this consciously, and you can actually learn to jump timelines. This is very interesting; I have done it many times. Mechanically speaking, we all do it, all the time, but we can do it in a more significant way, so that it actually becomes noticeable. I have done this in a noticeable way many times over the course of my life, so that right now, when I look back on two weeks ago, I don’t recognize my life; I don’t recognize myself. When I look back two years ago, I absolutely don’t recognize myself. It feels like it is someone else.
You can develop the same habit, the same tool, the same privilege, the same birthright, the same ability, because you already use the ability. But now, you can start using it consciously and deliberately, and have fun with it. There are many ways to do this, and mechanically, structurally, and energetically speaking, you jump timelines every second. However, you don’t do this to a significant enough degree to where we can say, “OK, this is a completely different timeline.”
You can make it more significant, you can make the difference more drastic, more dramatic, and most importantly, you can make it be in accordance with your highest bliss, your highest joy, your highest desire. Otherwise, what’s the point, right? You might as well be in this timeline reality.
There are many ways to increase the significance of a timeline change. If you look upon your life as it is, and how it has unfolded, you will see that there have been many moments in your life when you have had the very powerful urge, “I want change!” This is a very strong, palpable desire: “I want to change something.” If you remember the Three Day Process lesson, this is the Day One experience. It is a very profound change in the energetic orientation of you as an individual, as an individuation of All That Is.
You have a change of heart, you have a change of intention, a change of mindset, a change of belief system. When this change is executed and is seen all the way through—when it is taken all the way through the Day 2 challenge into the Day 3 celebration, confirmation and transformation—what has happened is that you have jumped in your vibration.
You have jumped significantly enough to where, if you could see it on a piece of paper, drawing a line between different dots (each of which represent a parallel reality), it would look like your previous life was just a straight line, and then suddenly, it jumped up a notch. The line then continues in a similar direction, or maybe in a slightly different direction, but it is on a whole different level.
In this case, we can say, quite literally, that you have “shifted timelines.” You have actually changed your timeline. Oddly enough, not only does this mean you have changed your future experience (what you will be experiencing), it also means that the body-mind vibrational spectrum that you are now inhabiting and are conscious of, has a different past.
Change Your Timeline by Changing Your Past
This new past may not be one you remember, although—this is weird—you can actually gain memories of experiences you never had in your previous timeline. These are experiences that your present self has had, because again, time is an illusion. So, what you are “tuning into” or “downloading” is not so much an actual memory (you never actually have a memory, in that sense), it is simply that you notice a parallel picture that corresponds to the vibratory state you have now shifted into.
So, now you have access to the future and the past simultaneously. You have access to this new future self, this new parallel timeline self that you chose. Being in that energy, you will naturally have a different type of memory and a different type of probability projection into your future.
One way to specifically do this is to actually change your past. Here is one simple method that you can learn to apply. Take an event you remember from your past, perhaps one that you don’t really enjoy; one that you don’t prefer. It may be one that you wish wasn’t yours, even though you can see how it has benefited you, how it has helped you to become who you are. You can take that memory that you have a bit of a nasty after-taste from, and change it, quite literally. You can simply overwhelm that memory with your new chosen frequency vibration energy.
Let’s say the new vibratory state you prefer over your memory is love and joy and support and respect. Take those frequencies (or one of them) and overwhelm that moment in your past with the particular frequency that you chose and see what happens. It is like you are “energetically massaging” your image of the past with a different vibratory state. You overwhelm it. You insert it. You superimpose your new vibratory state onto your image, onto the memory from the past that you don’t really enjoy. Keep exuding the energy of love and light, and the vibration of aliveness and respect and support and being loved. The more you superimpose that onto the image, the more you will start to see the image change.
This is not a delusion, as such. This is actually you shifting into a parallel timeline, where you had a slightly different (or a significantly different) experience of a very similar moment. But now, you are in a parallel reality which is of a higher vibratory state. This is a more evolved, more expanded version of the timeline of your experience and alternate self.
Basically, you are inhabiting an alternate version of yourself, which has a different past. So, as you keep changing that past experience, you are actually, in the present, moving yourself into different a timeline. You are shifting into a different timeline more drastically than you would if you were shifting through parallel realities on “automatic pilot.” You are making this conscious and deliberate, and you are changing it so significantly that you are actually starting to change your memory of the past. So try this out and see what happens.
Suddenly, it is a completely different picture. The same person who perhaps abused you, suddenly starts hugging you sincerely, with no other meaning than to simply hug you and love you and support you unconditionally. Or, the boss who fired you now suddenly gives you a big commission, or a reward, or a promotion.
You will see that your image of what happened changes. If it does not make sense to your present memory of your timeline, simply allow that to be OK, and keep superimposing your chosen vibratory state onto that past image. Watch it change and allow this to be a permission symbol for you to feel that you have actually changed, in the present, to a different parallel timeline that is more aligned; that is of a freer, more transparent nature.
More transparent to what? More transparent to your Heart’s true desires; more transparent to who you truly want to manifest through your body-mind-individuation experience.
Change Your Timeline—by Simply Changing Your Timeline
Another way to change your timeline is to simply—change your timeline. This is a more advanced method because it doesn’t use any other permission symbols; it doesn’t use any other technique. It simply allows you to decide to be in a different timeline, to jump into a different timeline—just like that—using confidence.
What you do is superimpose the frequency of confident change onto your present experience, and—right there, right then—you will start to feel a difference in your vibratory state. You will start to change how you feel and how you see, and that actually signifies that you have jumped into an alternate timeline. As a result, you will have different memories come up, and you will have access to different future passions and creativity.
So, try that one; it is very direct. You can always apply it, and the more you practice it, the more your confidence becomes this overwhelming, overpowering energy that allows you to shift your reality in an instant, more and more. Confidence is powerful. Faith is powerful. Deliberate confidence is very potent. It is a very powerful tool.
Change Your Timeline through Visualization
Another way to jump timelines is to use visualization. To do this, sit down, as in meditation. Center yourself a little bit, relax, take a deep breath, give away all thoughts for 2 to 5 seconds. Recognize the changelessness, the essence, the perfect nature of timeless Presence, or timeless Awareness. Or, do whatever allows you to feel centered and comfortable within yourself.
Then visualize, or imagine, what it is you wish to shift into. Visualize that reality to such an extent that you actually start to feel the vibratory changes of the active visualization. As soon as you start to see those vibratory changes, as soon as you visualize this powerfully enough, you actually start to become that reality, to shift into that reality.
How do you know you have actually shifted into a different timeline? Well again, you do this all the time, so really, it is not even a question. You always have shifted into parallel realities. But the timeline change becomes more significant when you actually feel different. When you feel your mood has significantly changed. When you feel your outlook on life has significantly changed. When you feel that your perspective on things has changed. When your grudges about the past no longer hold sway over you, and your concerns about the future feel completely lightened up. You know you have shifted when you feel more ecstatic; when you feel more alive.
You know you have shifted timelines whenever you feel more stable and grounded, yet freer at the same time; more inside of your own center of alignment. You feel better overall. Every time there is a significant change in your mood, it means you did something to make it happen—whether you did it consciously or unconsciously; deliberately or accidentally. But you did something to cause yourself to shift into a parallel timeline.
In fact, this is the only way emotional change is possible. You can only change emotionally if you shift your vibration significantly enough to where you are in a different timeline. Suddenly, you will notice you are more confident about your future. You are no longer looking to the past. You are no longer holding grudges and regrets. You no longer feel attached to the person that left you perhaps, or to the people that you have loved. You feel free. You feel empowered. You feel more powerful. This is a sign that you have done a good job and you have shifted confidently into a parallel timeline experience—one that has a different past and a different future. You will attract a different future than you would have had in the parallel reality you just moved out of.
In a sense, it is like moving houses, or moving locations. It is no different. You simply give yourself permission to feel that you have changed. You give yourself permission to know that you have changed. You give yourself permission to “be the change you wish to see in the world”—quite literally.
When you do this, you will see that your reality changes, because the Law of Attraction and the Law of Reflection will cause your circumstances to naturally reflect the nature of your vibratory timeline state of being. Everything you perceive reflects who you are, who you assume yourself to be, what your state of being is like, and what your timeline is like.
Homework
The homework for this lesson is three-fold; that is, in addition to reading this text or listening to the audio or watching the video, at least once more before you proceed with the next lesson. In addition to that, there are three assignments, which are to try out the three basic techniques for jumping timelines.
Change your past. Go to a past memory and superimpose upon it; overwhelm it with another new frequency state you would rather have that memory be a representation of. Choose an energy state such as love, or light, or excitement, or support, or being loved, and overwhelm that memory, as you presently remember it, with your chosen frequency.
Keep “massaging it” energetically with your new chosen state of being and watch how, somehow, your mind miraculously starts to come up with different images of the same memory. It starts to change the way it looks. This is how malleable a memory is. This is how malleable your timeline is. Try this.
Simply choose to shift, just like that. Choose a certain frequency. Choose a certain desire. There has to be a certain desire, otherwise this particular method won’t work. You must have a desire for a change. Whenever you feel frustrated with your present timeline, allow that to motivate you; don’t let it make you grumpy. Allow it to motivate you and excite you, for something else must be coming: “I must be desiring some kind of change, so let me make that change.”
Don’t wait for the change—choose and insert and overwhelm your experience with your chosen vibratory timeline experience and know that you have changed. Feel that you have changed. Be that change—period. Simply by knowing, simply by deciding that you know you have changed and that that is enough, you will start to see the effects. You will start attracting different things into your life, because you literally jumped timelines when you jumped confidently into another vibrational realm.
Use visualization. Practice the art of visualization, or imagination. We will get into this more deeply a couple of lessons from now in See It, Feel It, Be It, but for now, simply start to get a glimpse of this. Sit down, as in meditation, and visualize the timeline experience you desire. Visualize what it looks like and what it feels like, to the best of your ability. Once you see it very, very clearly, you can start to feel it and then start to be it. You are, quite literally, uploading yourself into a parallel timeline experience that has a different past and future by utilizing strong visualization.
There is also a bonus exercise. If you want to, and if it feels inspiring, write down your own method. Come up with your own method to change your vibratory state enough to where you can give yourself permission to understand, believe, feel, know, and see the results of the fact that you have changed from one parallel timeline reality to another timeline reality. You will know you are successful when you feel different about your past and your future, and most of all, if you feel amazing right now.
Use any method, permissions of any type, and your imagination. Use any type of practice or tool you intuitively come up with that feels germane, immediate, and natural to your particular make up, natural to your particular design. Write it down, and I would love it if you would share it with the other people in the study group. We can build a little “library” of sorts, inside of this lesson’s study group, of different ways we can very easily shift timelines.
So, change your past and change your future. Change what you attract to yourself. Most of all, most importantly, change the vibratory nature of your present feeling state, because that is the key to everything.
Enjoy! Have fun, and see you in another timeline experience!

For me, intentions invite a sense of trust that good things can happen — that positivity doesn’t have to be forced. They offer hope that by expressing how we genuinely feel and working with what really is, positive things can arrive in their own way.

LOVE IN ACTION-Happiness Meeting
I am choosing to be more open today for 2 reasons.
It will serve me-to bump up my gratitude and appreciation on a level that goes beyond my daily energy.
It is my hope it will trigger something in you, to create the life you say you desire.
"ACTIONABLE GRATITUDE"
a term I coined...as the inspiration behind a life that is heart felt, spirit filled, productive...with a foundation of gratitude and appreciation for EVERYTHING!
I once heard a quote that basically said -instead of things you tell yourself you have to do...think of it as things that you have the extreme privilege of being able to do.
LOVE this quote!!! I will share why...
Over the years I have shared with our very loving community
know I have referenced health on many threads. And even referenced 'this experience' on other threads, though never allowed it to be the basis of a thread.
Close to I'd say, a decade & 1/2 ago, I had a unique 'health crisis' which lasted... what felt 'too long' ... for any part of it. Today I refer to that time as the most bitter sweet lessons ever.
NOT EVER asking for a repeat performance.
I am simply profoundly grateful for what occurred because of this 'unbelievable-time' for me.
If anyone had witnessed me during that time-they might think the only thing I was referring to as Answered Prayer... was getting passed this mysterious lack of health... Though, it goes much deeper than this, and so glad I'm beyond completely recovered... I Am well. Thank You God!
This time created the absolute best foundation for the life I desired beyond my understanding.
I cannot conjure enough descriptive words to express the scary times ...coupled with profound information/gratitude/life- lessons which healed me of anything that ailed me... . It was a whole-person complete healing.
No need to share the specifics... I will say this event occurred after an appendectomy ... which definitely was a must. While the surgery saved my life, things that occurred afterward were nightmarish.
I just knew the changeable symptoms were not me... though while this distress was occurring... I had to let go of the life I was working on as I knew it.
So what is "actionable gratitude" ? It is how I live my life today. I understand that God gave me a body. I was shown what it was like not to work ...and not know what would work again...
When I recovered...I wasn't just not unwell, I was truly off the chart healthy, that doctors were taking notes...asking me what I did. This is the honest goodness truth.
After much acceptance & surrendering...and belief in a Good Life... I turned into a little body builder and a disciplined high nutrition-foodie. Mind you... this behavior took place when I could barely move and had lost my sense of taste ... (and that was only the beginning)
I got to the place of knowing what was right for me.
I was shown all I was shown so I could joyfully, gratefully honor every thing I was privileged to do/enjoy in life no matter what it was.
I loved myself completely demonstratively.
When you are not feeling the joy you are
you will be able to say that's not 'Me'
When you are not feeling wellness,
you will be able to say that's not 'Me
When you are not feeling the love that you are- you will be able to say that's not 'Me
When you are not feeling the peace you have inside- you will be able to say that's not 'Me'

excerpt of an article :
Recently, I received a pamphlet outlining the teachings of Reb Nachman of Breslov (b.1772- d.1810). It was entitled “Be Happy”. I was amazed at the synchronicity of the message of his teachings with the teachings of Abraham. Here are some quotes from the pamphlet:
Through joy, you free your soul from all kinds of inner problems, both physical and spiritual.
Happiness is a fire burning to ash all the impurities in a person’s system and in the entire universe.
Create joy for yourself. Dance or sing or do at least one thing every hour that makes you feel joyful. Continue to increase it, until very soon, your whole day will be filled with happiness. This way you will be able to achieve your purpose in life, both physically and spiritually. Joy is a person’s existence, so do whatever works for you in order to be happy the whole day.
The greater the happiness you experience, the more you will be filled with spiritual holiness and succeed in everything. This is because happiness is the essence of a human being, both spiritually and physically. It is his essence in both this world and
the World to Come.
Problems are attracted to a person who is depressed and filled with bitterness. However, if you decide to fill yourself with joy, doing whatever you can in order to accomplish this – even to lift your feet and dance in joy – all judgments against you will be removed.
G-d is the very essence of joy.
Happiness contracts and constructs funnels, and channels G-d’s light so that it will reach even the smallest and most fallen; even the most lost and the most pitiable.
And so, whatever level you may be at this moment – even be it low, degraded and fallen, strengthen yourself to tremendous joy. As a result G-d’s light will shine on you right where you are. Then you will rise from your lowliness and desperation.
related threads and material in process (lots more to go!)
I'm believing this will be some wonderful list. Finding them was keeping me in the VORTEX Bmindful is already in the vortex this list may be infinite... (the order is mostly by year/hoping to find ways to categorize these wonderful inspirations. Wonderful Inspiration-category would be just about all of them too.
My last handful of affirmations actually inspired this thread. I no longer know who originally created the affirmations, though they are all mine, once we live them.(:
Please join me here and add LOA quotes/sentiments you love!
This thread focuses on the ideas which Law of Attraction works!!

My last handful of affirmations actually inspired this thread. I no longer know who originally created the affirmations, though they are all mine, once we live them.(:
In this moment, I am so peaceful and charged up when the energy of this topic entered my mind, body and spirit.
Enjoying Yourself Into Action
(& Being Your Heart's Idea of Your Personal Best)
The purpose of this Happiness Mtg-thread is to answer (a) what is truly happening for you in this moment(b) to ask yourself where are you right now and (c)what are you desiring that you are Now ready for?
A good many people from Bmindful that I love inspiring myself around love to create and recreate themselves... They ease themselves into 'good' change...
To these members, this means appreciating where they are, what brought them to their Now, and creating space for (1)the 'more' they are looking forward to, knowing 'more' is always in process (2)it is in line with the respect they feel for what is truly possible (3) and it is a following a ideas and feelings of bliss-> for what their heart is because they are allowing communication from their heart for what they are now desiring and ready for...
It is my belief many do not experience their everyday miracles, because they become overly focused on interpreting each experience, and do not give the wonder in each moment its opportunity to shine in their spirit. This gathering will ask you to discuss the relevance of this for you.
This belief that we are stepping back and allowing can feel like we are doing this when things are going the way we desire or we are liking our interpretations. Though what happens when something shows up that wasn't part of our plan?
I have been thinking a great deal about what kinds of things TRULY MOTIVATE my passion for life, and it came to me so lovely in my spirit and then the title for today's Happiness Meeting followed .....Enjoying Yourself Into Action. ..
Being → Doing → Having.

HEALTHY MIND PLATTERSeven daily essential mental activities to optimize brain matter and create well-being
It essentially discusses balance.
Here is part
“mental nutrients” that your brain and relationships need to function at their best. By engaging every day in each of these servings, you promote integration in your life and enable your brain to coordinate and balance its activities. These essential mental activities strengthen your brain's internal connections and your connections with other people and the world around you.
We're not suggesting specific amounts of time for this recipe for a healthy mind, as each individual is different, and our needs change over time too. The point is to become aware of the full spectrum of essential mental activities, and as with essential nutrients, make sure that at least every day we are bringing the right ingredients into our mental diet, even if for just a bit of time. Just as you wouldn't eat only pizza every day for days on end, we shouldn't just live on focus time alone with little time for sleep. The key is balancing the day with each of these essential mental activities. Mental wellness is all about reinforcing our connections with others and the world around us; and it is also about strengthening the connections within the brain itself. When we vary the focus of attention with this spectrum of mental activities, we give the brain lots of opportunities to develop in different ways.

“We all have the power to transform ourselves and consciously choose something that does not already exist. At any moment we can create something beyond what is.” ~ Julie Ann Turner
What is a Self-care Enthusiast? by Lynda Monk (reflective journaling) Soulful self-care is the way in which you care for and nourish the essence of who you are – past what you do, beyond all the roles that define you, it is how you turn inward to know, grow and care for yourself. if you desire->read article in full
“There is no formula to relationships. They have to be negotiated in loving ways, with room for both parties, what they want and what they need, what they can do and what their life is like.” Tuesdays With Morrie p.177,178)
quote♥The point of marriage is not to create a quick commonality by tearing down all boundaries; on the contrary, a good marriage is one in which each partner appoints the other to be the guardian of his solitude, and thus they show each other the greatest possible trust. A merging of two people is an impossibility, and where it seems to exist, it is a hemming-in, a mutual consent that robs one party or both parties of their fullest freedom and development. But once the realisation is accepted that even between the closest people infinite distances exist, a marvelous living side-by-side can grow up for them, if they succeed in loving the expanse between them, which gives them the possibility of always seeing each other as a whole and before an immense sky.”RAINERMARIARIL
I love the quote above. It reminds me how I don't have to own or buy 'everything'. I simply enjoy my experiences. It makes me feel like I have everything!
Although knowing I will have what I desire also works for me...(:

The Power of Imagination
“I think of affirmations and visualizations as tapping into the power of the imagination, which is a generator and transformer, a force that precedes and shapes who we become, and what we create and achieve. Whenever we attempt something new or difficult, we have to be able to imagine it before it becomes possible. It’s the combination of inspiration and perspiration that brings about tangible results.” Jean Shinoda Bolen
Affirmations and visualizations tap into my imagination, which is a generator AND a transformer for my great life.

THANK YOU SUCCESS N FREEDOM FOR CREATING THIS VIDEO FOR ME
You can start utilizing this consciously, and you can actually learn to jump timelines. This is very interesting; I have done it many times. Mechanically speaking, we all do it, all the time, but we can do it in a more significant way, so that it actually becomes noticeable. I have done this in a noticeable way many times over the course of my life, so that right now, when I look back on two weeks ago, I don’t recognize my life; I don’t recognize myself. When I look back two years ago, I absolutely don’t recognize myself. It feels like it is someone else.
You can develop the same habit, the same tool, the same privilege, the same birthright, the same ability, because you already use the ability. But now, you can start using it consciously and deliberately, and have fun with it. There are many ways to do this, and mechanically, structurally, and energetically speaking, you jump timelines every second. However, you don’t do this to a significant enough degree to where we can say, “OK, this is a completely different timeline.”
You can make it more significant, you can make the difference more drastic, more dramatic, and most importantly, you can make it be in accordance with your highest bliss, your highest joy, your highest desire. Otherwise, what’s the point, right? You might as well be in this timeline reality.
There are many ways to increase the significance of a timeline change. If you look upon your life as it is, and how it has unfolded, you will see that there have been many moments in your life when you have had the very powerful urge, “I want change!” This is a very strong, palpable desire: “I want to change something.” If you remember the Three Day Process lesson, this is the Day One experience. It is a very profound change in the energetic orientation of you as an individual, as an individuation of All That Is.
You have a change of heart, you have a change of intention, a change of mindset, a change of belief system. When this change is executed and is seen all the way through—when it is taken all the way through the Day 2 challenge into the Day 3 celebration, confirmation and transformation—what has happened is that you have jumped in your vibration.
You have jumped significantly enough to where, if you could see it on a piece of paper, drawing a line between different dots (each of which represent a parallel reality), it would look like your previous life was just a straight line, and then suddenly, it jumped up a notch. The line then continues in a similar direction, or maybe in a slightly different direction, but it is on a whole different level.
In this case, we can say, quite literally, that you have “shifted timelines.” You have actually changed your timeline. Oddly enough, not only does this mean you have changed your future experience (what you will be experiencing), it also means that the body-mind vibrational spectrum that you are now inhabiting and are conscious of, has a different past.
Change Your Timeline by Changing Your Past
This new past may not be one you remember, although—this is weird—you can actually gain memories of experiences you never had in your previous timeline. These are experiences that your present self has had, because again, time is an illusion. So, what you are “tuning into” or “downloading” is not so much an actual memory (you never actually have a memory, in that sense), it is simply that you notice a parallel picture that corresponds to the vibratory state you have now shifted into.
So, now you have access to the future and the past simultaneously. You have access to this new future self, this new parallel timeline self that you chose. Being in that energy, you will naturally have a different type of memory and a different type of probability projection into your future.
One way to specifically do this is to actually change your past. Here is one simple method that you can learn to apply. Take an event you remember from your past, perhaps one that you don’t really enjoy; one that you don’t prefer. It may be one that you wish wasn’t yours, even though you can see how it has benefited you, how it has helped you to become who you are. You can take that memory that you have a bit of a nasty after-taste from, and change it, quite literally. You can simply overwhelm that memory with your new chosen frequency vibration energy.
Let’s say the new vibratory state you prefer over your memory is love and joy and support and respect. Take those frequencies (or one of them) and overwhelm that moment in your past with the particular frequency that you chose and see what happens. It is like you are “energetically massaging” your image of the past with a different vibratory state. You overwhelm it. You insert it. You superimpose your new vibratory state onto your image, onto the memory from the past that you don’t really enjoy. Keep exuding the energy of love and light, and the vibration of aliveness and respect and support and being loved. The more you superimpose that onto the image, the more you will start to see the image change.
This is not a delusion, as such. This is actually you shifting into a parallel timeline, where you had a slightly different (or a significantly different) experience of a very similar moment. But now, you are in a parallel reality which is of a higher vibratory state. This is a more evolved, more expanded version of the timeline of your experience and alternate self.
Basically, you are inhabiting an alternate version of yourself, which has a different past. So, as you keep changing that past experience, you are actually, in the present, moving yourself into different a timeline. You are shifting into a different timeline more drastically than you would if you were shifting through parallel realities on “automatic pilot.” You are making this conscious and deliberate, and you are changing it so significantly that you are actually starting to change your memory of the past. So try this out and see what happens.
Suddenly, it is a completely different picture. The same person who perhaps abused you, suddenly starts hugging you sincerely, with no other meaning than to simply hug you and love you and support you unconditionally. Or, the boss who fired you now suddenly gives you a big commission, or a reward, or a promotion.
You will see that your image of what happened changes. If it does not make sense to your present memory of your timeline, simply allow that to be OK, and keep superimposing your chosen vibratory state onto that past image. Watch it change and allow this to be a permission symbol for you to feel that you have actually changed, in the present, to a different parallel timeline that is more aligned; that is of a freer, more transparent nature.
More transparent to what? More transparent to your Heart’s true desires; more transparent to who you truly want to manifest through your body-mind-individuation experience.
Change Your Timeline—by Simply Changing Your Timeline
Another way to change your timeline is to simply—change your timeline. This is a more advanced method because it doesn’t use any other permission symbols; it doesn’t use any other technique. It simply allows you to decide to be in a different timeline, to jump into a different timeline—just like that—using confidence.
What you do is superimpose the frequency of confident change onto your present experience, and—right there, right then—you will start to feel a difference in your vibratory state. You will start to change how you feel and how you see, and that actually signifies that you have jumped into an alternate timeline. As a result, you will have different memories come up, and you will have access to different future passions and creativity.
So, try that one; it is very direct. You can always apply it, and the more you practice it, the more your confidence becomes this overwhelming, overpowering energy that allows you to shift your reality in an instant, more and more. Confidence is powerful. Faith is powerful. Deliberate confidence is very potent. It is a very powerful tool.
Change Your Timeline through Visualization
Another way to jump timelines is to use visualization. To do this, sit down, as in meditation. Center yourself a little bit, relax, take a deep breath, give away all thoughts for 2 to 5 seconds. Recognize the changelessness, the essence, the perfect nature of timeless Presence, or timeless Awareness. Or, do whatever allows you to feel centered and comfortable within yourself.
Then visualize, or imagine, what it is you wish to shift into. Visualize that reality to such an extent that you actually start to feel the vibratory changes of the active visualization. As soon as you start to see those vibratory changes, as soon as you visualize this powerfully enough, you actually start to become that reality, to shift into that reality.
How do you know you have actually shifted into a different timeline? Well again, you do this all the time, so really, it is not even a question. You always have shifted into parallel realities. But the timeline change becomes more significant when you actually feel different. When you feel your mood has significantly changed. When you feel your outlook on life has significantly changed. When you feel that your perspective on things has changed. When your grudges about the past no longer hold sway over you, and your concerns about the future feel completely lightened up. You know you have shifted when you feel more ecstatic; when you feel more alive.
You know you have shifted timelines whenever you feel more stable and grounded, yet freer at the same time; more inside of your own center of alignment. You feel better overall. Every time there is a significant change in your mood, it means you did something to make it happen—whether you did it consciously or unconsciously; deliberately or accidentally. But you did something to cause yourself to shift into a parallel timeline.
In fact, this is the only way emotional change is possible. You can only change emotionally if you shift your vibration significantly enough to where you are in a different timeline. Suddenly, you will notice you are more confident about your future. You are no longer looking to the past. You are no longer holding grudges and regrets. You no longer feel attached to the person that left you perhaps, or to the people that you have loved. You feel free. You feel empowered. You feel more powerful. This is a sign that you have done a good job and you have shifted confidently into a parallel timeline experience—one that has a different past and a different future. You will attract a different future than you would have had in the parallel reality you just moved out of.
In a sense, it is like moving houses, or moving locations. It is no different. You simply give yourself permission to feel that you have changed. You give yourself permission to know that you have changed. You give yourself permission to “be the change you wish to see in the world”—quite literally.
When you do this, you will see that your reality changes, because the Law of Attraction and the Law of Reflection will cause your circumstances to naturally reflect the nature of your vibratory timeline state of being. Everything you perceive reflects who you are, who you assume yourself to be, what your state of being is like, and what your timeline is like.
Homework
The homework for this lesson is three-fold; that is, in addition to reading this text or listening to the audio or watching the video, at least once more before you proceed with the next lesson. In addition to that, there are three assignments, which are to try out the three basic techniques for jumping timelines.
Change your past. Go to a past memory and superimpose upon it; overwhelm it with another new frequency state you would rather have that memory be a representation of. Choose an energy state such as love, or light, or excitement, or support, or being loved, and overwhelm that memory, as you presently remember it, with your chosen frequency.
Keep “massaging it” energetically with your new chosen state of being and watch how, somehow, your mind miraculously starts to come up with different images of the same memory. It starts to change the way it looks. This is how malleable a memory is. This is how malleable your timeline is. Try this.
Simply choose to shift, just like that. Choose a certain frequency. Choose a certain desire. There has to be a certain desire, otherwise this particular method won’t work. You must have a desire for a change. Whenever you feel frustrated with your present timeline, allow that to motivate you; don’t let it make you grumpy. Allow it to motivate you and excite you, for something else must be coming: “I must be desiring some kind of change, so let me make that change.”
Don’t wait for the change—choose and insert and overwhelm your experience with your chosen vibratory timeline experience and know that you have changed. Feel that you have changed. Be that change—period. Simply by knowing, simply by deciding that you know you have changed and that that is enough, you will start to see the effects. You will start attracting different things into your life, because you literally jumped timelines when you jumped confidently into another vibrational realm.
Use visualization. Practice the art of visualization, or imagination. We will get into this more deeply a couple of lessons from now in See It, Feel It, Be It, but for now, simply start to get a glimpse of this. Sit down, as in meditation, and visualize the timeline experience you desire. Visualize what it looks like and what it feels like, to the best of your ability. Once you see it very, very clearly, you can start to feel it and then start to be it. You are, quite literally, uploading yourself into a parallel timeline experience that has a different past and future by utilizing strong visualization.
There is also a bonus exercise. If you want to, and if it feels inspiring, write down your own method. Come up with your own method to change your vibratory state enough to where you can give yourself permission to understand, believe, feel, know, and see the results of the fact that you have changed from one parallel timeline reality to another timeline reality. You will know you are successful when you feel different about your past and your future, and most of all, if you feel amazing right now.
Use any method, permissions of any type, and your imagination. Use any type of practice or tool you intuitively come up with that feels germane, immediate, and natural to your particular make up, natural to your particular design. Write it down, and I would love it if you would share it with the other people in the study group. We can build a little “library” of sorts, inside of this lesson’s study group, of different ways we can very easily shift timelines.
So, change your past and change your future. Change what you attract to yourself. Most of all, most importantly, change the vibratory nature of your present feeling state, because that is the key to everything.
Enjoy! Have fun, and see you in another timeline experience!

• Positive affirmations help create internal alignment and strength • Positive intent helps to create external manifestations • The more aligned you are with your true self, the more aligned you are with all of consciousness and the greater ability you will have to co-create your life and experiences.

For me, intentions invite a sense of trust that good things can happen — that positivity doesn’t have to be forced. They offer hope that by expressing how we genuinely feel and working with what really is, positive things can arrive in their own way.

INTRO FOR:
LOVE IN ACTION-Happiness Meeting
I am choosing to be more open today for 2 reasons.
It will serve me-to bump up my gratitude and appreciation on a level that goes beyond my daily energy.
It is my hope it will trigger something in you, to create the life you say you desire.
"ACTIONABLE GRATITUDE"
a term I coined...as the inspiration behind a life that is heart felt, spirit filled, productive...with a foundation of gratitude and appreciation for EVERYTHING!
I once heard a quote that basically said -instead of things you tell yourself you have to do...think of it as things that you have the extreme privilege of being able to do.
LOVE this quote!!! I will share why...
Over the years I have shared with our very loving community
know I have referenced health on many threads. And even referenced 'this experience' on other threads, though never allowed it to be the basis of a thread.
Close to I'd say, a decade & 1/2 ago, I had a unique 'health crisis' which lasted... what felt 'too long' ... for any part of it. Today I refer to that time as the most bitter sweet lessons ever.
NOT EVER asking for a repeat performance.
I am simply profoundly grateful for what occurred because of this 'unbelievable-time' for me.
If anyone had witnessed me during that time-they might think the only thing I was referring to as Answered Prayer... was getting passed this mysterious lack of health... Though, it goes much deeper than this, and so glad I'm beyond completely recovered... I Am well. Thank You God!
This time created the absolute best foundation for the life I desired beyond my understanding.
I cannot conjure enough descriptive words to express the scary times ...coupled with profound information/gratitude/life- lessons which healed me of anything that ailed me... . It was a whole-person complete healing.
No need to share the specifics... I will say this event occurred after an appendectomy ... which definitely was a must. While the surgery saved my life, things that occurred afterward were nightmarish.
I just knew the changeable symptoms were not me... though while this distress was occurring... I had to let go of the life I was working on as I knew it.
So what is "actionable gratitude" ? It is how I live my life today. I understand that God gave me a body. I was shown what it was like not to work ...and not know what would work again...
When I recovered...I wasn't just not unwell, I was truly off the chart healthy, that doctors were taking notes...asking me what I did. This is the honest goodness truth.
After much acceptance & surrendering...and belief in a Good Life... I turned into a little body builder and a disciplined high nutrition-foodie. Mind you... this behavior took place when I could barely move and had lost my sense of taste ... (and that was only the beginning)
I got to the place of knowing what was right for me.
I was shown all I was shown so I could joyfully, gratefully honor every thing I was privileged to do/enjoy in life no matter what it was.
I loved myself completely demonstratively.
When you are not feeling wellness,
you will be able to say that's not 'Me
When you are not feeling the love that you are- you will be able to say that's not 'Me
When you are not feeling the peace you have inside- you will be able to say that's not 'Me'

A Long While Ago...I once stumbled on this (on some Abe-related site).
excerpt of an article :
Recently, I received a pamphlet outlining the teachings of Reb Nachman of Breslov (b.1772- d.1810). It was entitled “Be Happy”. I was amazed at the synchronicity of the message of his teachings with the teachings of Abraham. Here are some quotes from the pamphlet:
Through joy, you free your soul from all kinds of inner problems, both physical and spiritual.
Happiness is a fire burning to ash all the impurities in a person’s system and in the entire universe.
Create joy for yourself. Dance or sing or do at least one thing every hour that makes you feel joyful. Continue to increase it, until very soon, your whole day will be filled with happiness. This way you will be able to achieve your purpose in life, both physically and spiritually. Joy is a person’s existence, so do whatever works for you in order to be happy the whole day.
The greater the happiness you experience, the more you will be filled with spiritual holiness and succeed in everything. This is because happiness is the essence of a human being, both spiritually and physically. It is his essence in both this world and
the World to Come.
Problems are attracted to a person who is depressed and filled with bitterness. However, if you decide to fill yourself with joy, doing whatever you can in order to accomplish this – even to lift your feet and dance in joy – all judgments against you will be removed.
G-d is the very essence of joy.
Happiness contracts and constructs funnels, and channels G-d’s light so that it will reach even the smallest and most fallen; even the most lost and the most pitiable.
And so, whatever level you may be at this moment – even be it low, degraded and fallen, strengthen yourself to tremendous joy. As a result G-d’s light will shine on you right where you are. Then you will rise from your lowliness and desperation.
related threads and material in process (lots more to go!)
I'm believing this will be some wonderful list. Finding them was keeping me in the VORTEX Bmindful is already in the vortex this list may be infinite... (the order is mostly by year/hoping to find ways to categorize these wonderful inspirations. Wonderful Inspiration-category would be just about all of them too.
My last handful of affirmations actually inspired this thread. I no longer know who originally created the affirmations, though they are all mine, once we live them.(:

My last handful of affirmations actually inspired this thread. I no longer know who originally created the affirmations, though they are all mine, once we live them.(:
In this moment, I am so peaceful and charged up when the energy of this topic entered my mind, body and spirit.
Enjoying Yourself Into Action
(& Being Your Heart's Idea of Your Personal Best)
The purpose of this Happiness Mtg-thread is to answer (a) what is truly happening for you in this moment(b) to ask yourself where are you right now and (c)what are you desiring that you are Now ready for?
A good many people from Bmindful that I love inspiring myself around love to create and recreate themselves... They ease themselves into 'good' change...
To these members, this means appreciating where they are, what brought them to their Now, and creating space for (1)the 'more' they are looking forward to, knowing 'more' is always in process (2)it is in line with the respect they feel for what is truly possible (3) and it is a following a ideas and feelings of bliss-> for what their heart is because they are allowing communication from their heart for what they are now desiring and ready for...
It is my belief many do not experience their everyday miracles, because they become overly focused on interpreting each experience, and do not give the wonder in each moment its opportunity to shine in their spirit. This gathering will ask you to discuss the relevance of this for you.
This belief that we are stepping back and allowing can feel like we are doing this when things are going the way we desire or we are liking our interpretations. Though what happens when something shows up that wasn't part of our plan?
I have been thinking a great deal about what kinds of things TRULY MOTIVATE my passion for life, and it came to me so lovely in my spirit and then the title for today's Happiness Meeting followed .....Enjoying Yourself Into Action. ..

I find the more I love me, trust me to care for me... and trust in a Universe to have my back...the more I love you even more!!!!...And if things just don't feel right ...I trust my feelings & feel directed in better places that my spirit appreciates. I don't feel myself veering away from things as much as I feel what I'm veering toward.Common sense right? Maybe...

Dear Selfcare Enthusiast, (note to self coming soon)
knowing what’s important-quoteThere are fine things which you mean to do some day, under what you think will be more favorable circumstances. But the only time that is surely yours is the present, hence this is the time to speak the word of appreciation and sympathy, to do the generous deed, to forgive the fault of a thoughtless friend, to sacrifice self a little more for others. Today is the day in which to express your noblest qualities of mind and heart, to do at least one worthy thing which you have long postponed, and to use your God-given abilities for the enrichment of someone less fortunate. Today you can make your life – significant and worthwhile. The present is yours to do with as you will.Grenville Kleiser

I promise myself…to be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind; to talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person I meet; to make all my friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them; to look at the sunny side of everything and make my optimism come true; to think only of the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best; to be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am about my own; to forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future; to wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature I meet; to give so much time to improving myself that I have no time to criticize others; to be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble; to think well of myself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud word, but in great deeds; to live in the faith that the whole world is on my side, so long as I am true to the best that is in me.~Christian D.

wrote the following awhile back, though message is valid today(:
Life is good and I let it flow through all of my activities.
I noticed I had been kind of hard on myself for experiencing nagging symptoms of a bug... I could feel messages of not tolerating less than really excellent ways to feel... instead of gratitude for this being temporary... I'm taking good care of me today... Cancelled my work...and just being kind to me...
Sometimes how we feel tells us stories we need to hear:
to pace self better
focus on the places that you've found works
create a space for something awesome coming your way which incorporates what is being learned &/or open heart/mind to learn something new
Isn't part of feeling excellent -acceptance? Since when does acceptance mean we have to like everything? Its just a place to acknowledge as , and to allow from there, right?
according to the above article: In a nutshell • Positive affirmations help create internal alignment and strength • Positive intent helps to create external manifestations • The more aligned you are with your true self, the more aligned you are with all of consciousness and the greater ability you will have to co-create your life and experiences.
“To serve is beautiful, but only if it is done with joy and a whole heart and a free mind.” [Pearl Sydenstricker Buck]

When questioned about any regrets they had or anything they would do differently, common themes surfaced again and again. Here are the most common five: What Do Dying People Regret?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I trust the process of life. Only right & good action is taking in my life.
Inspired Action versus Action
Inspired ActionBottom line: Inspired action feels good. It feels like playing. You're enjoying yourself. You're leveraging Universal energy, so you get a lot more done in much less time. Things just line up for you, it's easy, almost effortless.
Action taken from a place of impatience, from a place of fear (it won't happen fast enough, there's something I should be doing) is frustrating. It's like trying to push a heavy boulder up a large hill. It's no fun, you make little progress and it's really, really hard.

The author desires not to print part of her article if we are to share-and desires we share whole article instead:
ACTION VERSUS INSPIRED ACTION
The Law of Attraction teaches us that if we focus on something enough, if we give it enough energy to bring it into the physical and then line up with that vibration, we can receive whatever it is we want. Sometimes, the Universe will just drop whatever it is we're looking for right in our lap. A family member will just give you their car, for example. Sometimes, we're inspired to take some kind of action, like walking into a store we've never been into and never even noticed, where we just happen to meet the love of our lives. And sometimes we just have to wait patiently for the Universe to do its job. So, how do we know when to take action? And what does "inspired action" feel like, anyway?
There's a huge difference between taking action in order to make something happen and taking inspired action, which is moving with the energy in motion. The key is to recognize when you're trying to make things happen, instead of allowing the manifestations to appear.
When you take inspired action you:
Get an impulse and idea to do something, which usually comes to you naturally, easily and often at an unexpected moment.
The action steps just make sense. You don't have to justify them, they just feel right.
Feel energized by the action - it doesn't seem like "work". You're enjoying the process.
Make a lot of progress very quickly and with little effort - you get a lot of bang for your buck.
Are allowing things to happen naturally. Your action is just one piece of the puzzle.
Are allowing the Universe to orchestrate events. You don't have to control everything.
When you take "uninspired" action, you:
Spend a lot of time trying to figure out what actions to take. You make lists and research all the options to justify which ones are the best.
Feel frustrated and overwhelmed. There's just so much to do!
Feel tired and depleted. It really feels like "work". You don't want to do it, but you feel that you have to.
Are continuously stopped by roadblocks. Things just don't seem to be moving ahead. Something is always getting in the way.
Feel like you have to do it all. You have to make it happen.
Bottom line: Inspired action feels good. It feels like playing. You're enjoying yourself. You're leveraging Universal energy, so you get a lot more done in much less time. Things just line up for you, it's easy, almost effortless.
Action taken from a place of impatience, from a place of fear (it won't happen fast enough, there's something I should be doing) is frustrating. It's like trying to push a heavy boulder up a large hill. It's no fun, you make little progress and it's really, really hard.
The Universe has the power to line up all the perfect components in order to easily bring you what you desire. You may be one of those components (hence, the inspired action). But you don't have to control the whole process. You don't have the resources, the knowledge or the tools that the Universe has. Why would you try to do its job?
Let's say that you order a new designer dress or suit. Do you then go out and buy a book on how to sew, some fabric and a sewing machine, and try to make your own designer clothes? Or do you let the people who've been doing this for over a hundred years and have a whole factory dedicated to doing nothing else take care of it?
If you're frustrated and feel like you're spinning your wheels, you're trying to do the Universe's job. Stop it. Take a step back, relax, remember that it's not your job to make it all happen, and focus on what it is that you truly want. Remember that life is supposed to be fun, it's supposed to feel good. Manifesting your reality shouldn't be a struggle. Just line up with the energy and allow it to happen. If the Universe needs you to do something, it'll let you know.

For those of you who use different words with affirmative prayer…it is of course highly individual(: I sometimes use Source...though most of the time Creator, Creator Of The Universe... or... God. I am not someone who gets into religion online...Though expressing that there is a Powerful Omnipresent Loving Creator...I Am not opposed to(:
We all relate to a Creator in our own way Affirmative Prayer (also known as Spiritual Mind Treatment) is a powerfully, life enhancing spiritual practice which brings about the truth for yourself and others and affirms what it is that you desire for your life.
It has always been POWERFUL for me. On this site, a group of at one time-created prayerful process affirmations before 'anything' It was indeed Powerful, and we always reported back with joy.
It is a powerful way of changing your negative thought patterns into more positive, spiritual ones. It works on changing and aligning all parts of ourselves and a beautifully powerful way to co-create

Thank You Thank You Thank You ...Today I allow and receive “mental physical spiritual nutrients” that my life desires to function at its best. The ingredients that are forming my life... have a refreshing, invigorated feel... creating each brand new moment.
It is The 'all that is available to me' has been all gathered together, arranged and supplied in just the right combinations at just the right time. I Am now more aware when to step back and when to engage to best allow inspired action and go with flow of the harmonious rhythms of life.
Opportunities to develop in different ways are always available with ease as they are prioritized for the most benevolent outcome. I know this. I feel this. I Am this inspired action today.
For this and more, I Am and all others are richly blessed. Thank You Creator for the Universe in which I Am enjoying and gain gifts I thoroughly appreciate Always! Amen, and So It Is.

“If your life were any different, you'd feel exactly the same. This is the irony of life's eternal perfection. Once you no longer rely on outside circumstances, in order to feel good, or even require feeling good, in order to be relaxed and open, something far greater than the tracking of ups, downs, gains and losses awakens within you. This is the heart of awakening.” Matt Kahn, Whatever Arises,Love That:A Love Revolution That Begins With You
"By responding to anyone's criticism with love, compassion and acceptance, you are stepping forward as a master of relationships to create your own experiences, which has nothing to do with how anyone treats you.” Matt Kahn, Whatever Arises,Love That:A Love Revolution That Begins With You
“Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness.
How do you know this is the experience you need? Because this is the experience you are having at the moment.”
~ Eckhart Tolle

THIS THREAD WILL EVENTUALLY BE QUITE FULL. YOU MAY LIKE TO GO FULL SCREEN WHEN CHECKING IT OUT . This will take time, though if you check out time/date edited... you'll know if anything has been added. Or you may like to wait until after Sept 8, when much more of this thread will be complete.
Hey there everyone!
Most have noticed we went WITHOUT highlight stickies for awhile
We went this route because we have so many threads that ARE WONDERFUL , we went a highlightin' the whole front page (:
Though the other purpose initially highlighting different threads was to create not only visibility ...though also creating activity on a thread ... if you chose of course(:
.
What kinds of threads get highlighted? Here at Bmindful we are a community which puts love first(:
whether you're familiar with members or not, please stop by the threads which
resonate with you, and Enjoy.hare affirmations, quotes, videos .....
Enjoy ... with your style and when it feels right...share a little love toward what you enjoy...
It lifts our own vibration as well as others.
During this time of being highlight-less, we've been creatin'.
(Some wonderful new threads created! )So Much Good Too Many Stickies
Bmindful is a magical place. We are inspired by inclusive, like minded people. And that is the essence of my experience here- a magical loving place.
Thank you everyone who have continued to allow this to be so.
It goes without saying threads are not to be used to be discourteous toward others. Been there felt that on this site, and it is not tolerated.There got that out.
We are all growing, not a perfect one among us.
Going to use this space as a place to not only highlight threads though also attempt a brand new table of contents
So Much Good Too Many Stickies
this is a highlight tack.
Also many questions will be addressed as to where we are today.
For those of you haven't been with Bmindful long, we have come a long way!
We have wonderful new features!
We have a site that had many deleted threads, and some other unmentionables (:
Though now, we're filling up our forum ...oh so positively..
Will be back to chat
Speaking of announcements Bunique is working on something I think you will all love.
I'll check in with him to see how its going... (to be continued)
Most all on this site will always feel a strong love and connection with this wonderful woman

Here at Bmindful -this can be said just about every hour

as a community, we wouldn't exist without all of you
I know speaking for myself, you the community are spectacular.
Funny & true story for me: creating a thread today, and began adding related threads.. some mine.. though many from everyone... Now you know we have so many highlighted stickies. Everyone here has so much positive wonderful inspiration, and the pearls here are simply unlimited.
