What did I learn today? Lessons on the Journey to Unconditional Self Love

Most people are kept in a state of fear, jealousy, competition, comparison, complaining, and disillusionment. This leaves you open to be easily manipulated and controlled. You are convinced that you need money in order to have worth. This belief will indeed keep you poor. The wealth that we are speaking about is the wealth that comes from being a sovereign and free spirit and in alignment with the true knowing of who we are. Mayann Hasna What is your definition of wealthy?  My eyes were opened over the past few days spent in Ecuador. The culture of community and sharing really brought me back to thinking what I value. Don't get me wrong, money is important and I love it, it allows me the opportunity to live a life with less stress. I immediately started paying attention to both my conversations and the people around me. What I learned that we stop, we limit, we deny ourselves because "there is no money" or "I'm broke" or 'it's too expensive...

Even my wanderings were perfectly designed to teach me the falsity of the illusions I was following. What I thought were detours away from You were really lessons bringing me closer to home, and I am grateful for them all ACIM  Happy New Year to all of you my lovies! Thank you for joining me on all of my journeys during the last year, I do hope that it brought you something, anything, that made you ponder, laugh, feel, grow, love! I certainly enjoyed sharing the lessons with you as I strongly believe what we teach what we require to learn! As I leave Ecuador, I am grateful for the opportunity to see a different way of life, as well as, learn more about myself in the process. I love to learn and the way I kow that I ahve learnt is to demonstrate in my life. I welcome all the events that pass my way, the one's I label good and the one's I label not so good! So here's to more exciting and fun lessons in 2018 I pray for you all that you pray for yourself. I ...

do something. Any something. Do anything. You've heard me say it before, what's the absolute smallest thing you could do about this idea today? Tell a friend. Get out a whiteboard. Make a call. Set up the meeting. DO something about your idea. And then keep on keeping on with doing tiny little somethings.  Do that, and your idea won't remain just an idea for long . Maxie Mc Coy The past couple of days flew by! If anyone told me that I would have been spending the New Year's Eve in Ecuador with a bunch of people I never met burning palo santo and old beliefs I would probably would have laughed, but that is what I love about life- it's an unexpected adventure, it is unpredictable at best and hence I keep in mind "expect the unexpected and handle it!" Waking up every morning and walking to an empty beach was just what I desired! I connected with myself in a deeper way, meeting Napo - an energy healer and Shamaan, was perfect, he came to the beach ...

"When you feel healthy and well rested, you are better able to remain centred, even in the face of resistance and challenges" Alicia M Rogriguez This morning Napo and I walked to the beach. I met Napo here he is an energy healer and shamaan. I was quite intrigued to talk to him as what he does is so totally "Un Western" if that's a word! My Spanish is piss poor and his English is about the same so it was quite an interesting conversation. After spending an hour with him I totally got it! It's amazing how we can communicate using very little words or even different languages I learnt about cleaning my energy and how important doing that is I learnt about stillness and silence and taking the time to do that I learnt about exercise - how that helps energies I learnt that the Universe sends what we need right on time once we are open to it I learnt, most of all, to keep an open mind, all things don't have to make sense to me and I certainly don...

Every now and then go away, have a little relaxation, for when you come back to your work your judgement will be surer. Go some distance away because then the work appears smaller and more of it can be taken at a glance and a lack of harmony and proportion is readily seen - Leonardo DaVinci I was reading a story today and it talked about how people believe that resting, reflecting, taking a pause is only warranted when we are tired, or things are falling apart or not going as well as we expected. This article challenged this and spoke about taking time out when things are also normal. When things are "normal" take some time to reflect and rest, you do it from a different place. Sometimes overwhelm can also come from a "good place" or a "normal place" Have you ever heard of too much of a good thing? Balance Relection, rebooting, retooling is required and waiting until things fall apart to make time to do it may be too much too little too late! Sched...

Don't make the mistake of allowing others to tell you who you are supposed to be - Alicia Rodriguez They asked me if I wanted to go to Isla De La Plata. I responded by asking how long would the boat ride be. They responded - one hour and showed me the boat I was about to say no thank you Boats scare the shits outta me! I hardly ever step foot on them for more than 15minutes, that's my limit and it must be a HUGE boat, not that little piece of thing they wanted to send me on Then it hit me! What's on the other side of this boat ride, this fear? I get an opportunity to come to Eciador to see the poor man's Galpolos islands and a little puke will stop that? I said yes So this morning I put on my gam face and stepped on the boat, the self talk was strong, I kept watching the time, one hour they said, stay inside me, wait The island was amazing, the birds, the view, the dolphins, the manta rays, the experience On my way back the puke was not listening to me, oh my ...

In the twenty-first century, the power is with the people - Iyanla I ran to the beach at 630am, there was no one around, I had the entire beach to myself! Power I took a taxi to the fishing village and did the whole pick my fish took it to the lady to cook it while I waited patiently - Power I then booked a tour to the "poor man Galpagos islands" - Power I returned to meet and greet some Polish people who decided that their lives were reduced to work work work and more work and then decided to travel for a year and live life spontaneously - Power to the People What do you define as power? Is it money and status? maybe your job? Whatever is your definition I hope it makes you feel good and of course, powerful My definition of power is the freedom to do what I love, to have the ability to choose, to do what makes me happy despite the odds to know and use my ability to create, to create my life, using my thoughts, words and deeds Power to the People Peace ...
