Think about it:  we all want to have the best material things for comfort:  be a success at our careers, or our businesses, be popular, and have lots of friends, and lots of creativity and lots of happiness in our lives.

Have we considered that a shift in our consciousness is what we really need, and that an energy shift creates all that will come to us?  Yes, an energy vibrational shift will allow the unblocked areas in our bodies to flow and be healed naturally. Maintaining a high vibrational energetic state allows us to focus clearly, to remain calm, to be balanced and aligned and harmonized with the Universe and with all in our environment, and we will be able to handle the unexpected challenges in our lives, and realize that all we desire will be attracted to us and will flow to us with grace and ease. Actually, it is the energy we desire:  Have we not heard the phrase, “I am so tired, if I just had enough energy, I could do what I need to do to succeed.  If I had enough energy, I could perform well on the job, or succeed at my love mission in life, or I could be happier.” 

So, how do we get this energy?  We see young children, who are happy and carefree, with abundant energy, living in the NOW moment, and embracing life with no cares or worries about what will come next.  And we can’t keep up with them!  They tire us out.

Yet, like the Energizer Bunny, the children just keep going and going, for they are full of life, and their secret is to trust the Source within, and they trust us to keep them happy and well fed and content and entertained.  They don’t wish for it, they just know it is there, and will always be there. 

So, let us strive to keep our spiritual energetic vibrational state high at all times, by staying in gratitude, by doing deep breathing as often as possible, by meditating, by reading uplifting literature, by listening to soul-stirring music that transforms, and heals, and inspires the psyche to greet all things with the enthusiasm of Source that comes from deep within our infinite inner realms.  Ask for help in obtaining, and maintaining, and sustaining this elevated energetic vibrational shift in our lives.  Divinity is just waiting to assist you in all that you desire, and will joyfully work with you to keep that vibrational shift high and sustained throughout your day each day.

You need an energy shift from Source, from that Inner Presence that is deep within you, that never leaves you, that is you--nurturing and supporting and uplifting you all the time.

Say, “I call on all the Enlightened Masters, all the Archangels, all the Divine Beings who stand in the Christ Light, to help me stay at a very high energetic vibrational level in my consciousness, my physical body, my mental body, my emotional body, and my spiritual body, throughout my day--everyday, everyday.  Thank you Guidance; thank you so much!  I am so grateful!  I allow this Source energy to flow throughout my body, releasing all blocks, so that pain is non existent, and healing is manifested instantly; as I feel the difference, and experience the miracle of a high vibrational Energetic Source Shift throughout all of my existences on all dimensions now; thereby, allowing all things which are for the highest good of all and for my highest good, to flow to me continuously.  And so it is!”

We just had another successful Spiritual Marketing Class...and of course, in celebrating our upcoming 50th Anniversary, 100% of the Proceeds went to the Learning Light Foundation.  So exciting!!! 

Here's a great idea that came up in our marketing workshop:  Get involved with a charitable organization of your choice.  Give, Give, and Give- with zero expectation of anything in return. This simple act will feed your Soul by doing what you're meant to do as a Lightworker here on Earth. The funny thing is that when you set the Intention of Giving, wonderful things always bounce back anyway! Often the added bonus is that you will be recognized within the organization. People get curious as to what you do, who you are, and how they can help you promote- simply because they love your pure Intention and Energy. Let's face it.  We are all in the energy business; no matter what you're selling.  If you have the slightest Intention of hoping to receive something back by Giving, people can pick it up in a split second. This definitely applies in Online Marketing.  A great experiment is to browse various Facebook pages and experience the difference. Kinda fun when you become aware of the subtle energy shifts as you move about different pages.

You may think "Where will I find the time to volunteer when I'm already working so much?" My answer is when you feed your Soul doing what you love, your Energy will shift immediately!  And money and work progression are simply a physical manifestation of how you feel on an energy level.  Instead of working like a dog all day, why not trying something new- Effortless Manifestation!  The Universal Energy and our Spiritual Posse will mold around all your deepest desires when you feed your Soul-- often removing all obstacles including negativity. When this becomes a part of your everyday living, watch out!  Whatever you think about, comes about!  NEATO!  Coolest to experience Instant Manifestation! 

Another misconception is that if we can't do it all, we just won't do anything.  My motto in volunteer work is "I can't do everything but I can do something!"  Little things like bringing in your miscellaneous office supplies like pens and pencils to an not-for-profit organization is HUGE!  Understand that for the most part, many small grassroots organizations try to cut overhead costs so that they can utilize their funding for their cause instead of day to day operational costs.  Devoting a few hours at the Learning Light every month is another great way of helping without tapping your energy dry.  When you're volunteering doing what you LOVE in life (at LLF or elsewhere), you will find that you have boundless energy for all the 3rd dimensional stuff that usually bores you to tears! 

Figuring out what your Passion is in life will help you solidify what your Branding Message is- that's the Message you send out to the Universe that inspires others to work with you; with you only and no one else!  Your Branding Message is what will set you apart!  As always...love life...enjoy life...embrace every Moment as it is perfect as-is!  Choose Differently...

As we get deeper into healing work, we need to protect ourselves more and more.  If you're a sensitive soul, then it's even MORE important for YOU to ground yourself ...
If you can take a few minutes and ground yourself in the morning ....it would be a great help.

Just imagine yourself as this being of light ..the light is coming from above ...entering through your crown chakra and going through all your chakras ONE by ONE ...AND THEN IT EXITS through your legs into mother earth and finds a place to tie itself to mother earth.  Imagine a place that is SAFE FOR YOU ... for me it's a big crystal garden with crystals as big as a building . Tie your energy or the energy that comes from above to any place that feels comfortable and safe. Feel how connected you are, at that moment, to the universe; from above and below.  Now you can imagine yourself as a tree ...A VERY STRONG TREE THAT HAS AMAZING ROOT SYSTEM that goes all over mother earth and this tree ( YOU ) is standing strong, grounded to mother earth...

Carry Obsidian or Hematite on you will help in grounding.  It can be a bracelet or even a small piece in your pocket.

When you do a healing session, clear your body from the energy of the person you just worked on at the end of every session; even if it's someone you're close to. Your energy field is yours and needs to be clear and protected at all times.  It is important for you to detach from one another before you move on to your next session.  You can do this throughout the day, even when you're not healing.  You can do this by saging yourself or washing away this "bond" with love and light, moving your hands over your arms and body.  See your energy come back to you as light and return their energy with love and light ...you can imagine cutting it with your fingers.

Also remember that your intention is everything.  Your intention is to HEAL and seal the healing for your client. Separate your energy from theirs at the end.  You can do the same when you talk to people.  Do that in your mind when you're done with your conversation. Do not carry it with you all day ~ Namaste

In my previous two posts, I discussed the first five states of consciousness.  These are Sleep, Dream, Waking, Transcendental and Cosmic Consciousness.  Cosmic Consciousness is a state of being in which the individual has purified his or her nervous system to the point where it no longer harbors stress or stains.  Under such liberated circumstances, we spontaneously act in accordance with all the laws of nature and no longer make mistakes.  This is a very peaceful and serene way to live life.  However, the story doesn’t end there.

An important law of nature one must always remember is that evolution never ceases.  This begs the question - what lies beyond Cosmic Consciousness?  Before answering that let me first delve a little deeper into the experiences of Waking and Cosmic Consciousness.  In Waking State Consciousness, the state in which most people spend their lives, we are ruled by our passions and desires.  They overshadow every aspect of our life.  We are constantly striving to fulfill our desires.  Until they are satisfied we experience frustration.  Once we accomplish what we set out to do we feel great joy and pleasure.  The problem is that our desires prevent us from knowing our true nature and rediscovering our source.  These longings lock us into the cycle of birth, death and rebirth.  Enlightenment is the only escape. 

With the coming of Cosmic Consciousness, we are free.  We gain control of our desires and are able to exercise complete free will.  However, in Cosmic Consciousness we no longer experience the heightened joys of sensual and material life.  We become detached from everything.  This is not to be confused with depression, a state in which there is no joy.  Enlightenment is pleasant, but separate and dispassionate.

If one achieves Cosmic Consciousness yet continues a daily practice of meditation and contact with Transcendental Consciousness, she or he will eventually arrive at the Sixth State of Consciousness.  This is called God Consciousness.  In God Consciousness the individual perceives the Divine in all things.  I’m not just talking about seeing God in flowers or children’s faces.  In God Consciousness one would perceive the face of God when looking at litter on the side of the road or graffiti on the side of a building.  The profoundly blissful joy of our Divine nature becomes an ever present characteristic of life.  One truly lives in a constant state of effervescent delight and innocence.  Then, the full glory of human existence begins to unfold because we live life in freedom coupled with all the joy and passion of Divine ecstasy.  That is the power of God Consciousness.   Do I have any takers?

Someone asked me the other day how can the Universal Law of Oneness work in Business?  To that, I say "Accept it.  Embrace it.  Live it."

Universal Law of Oneness states that we live in a world where everything and everyone is connected to everything and everyone else.  Every single thing we are doing, saying, thinking and believing affects others around us as well as the Universe we are in.  We are all Connected. 

In business, I accept this idea.  Every decision I make and every thought I have affects not only me, but the entire Universe.  Understand this principle has helped me look beyond my immediate "needs" and do what I feel is right for me, others, and the World.  It makes me a more responsible human being and loving business owner. 

In business, I embrace this concept.  The more I embrace this law, the more successful I seem to become.  I no longer act on situations for immediate gain.  I meditate and ask for guidance from Source, knowing we are One.  There's no separation between Me and Higher Power. Embracing this has helped me develop a higher level of trust- an Inner Knowing that everything is as it should be.  I do not need to worry.  Just enjoy the ride and have some fun.  This has given me the Gift of Inner Peace and Freedom.  The more freedom I experience, the more positive I feel.  The more positive I feel, the more fortune I attract.  After all, the Law of Attraction is here to play too. ^_^

In business and marketing, I live this fascinating principle-- Living every Moment knowing we are all One.  Knowing that I cannot change others in any given situation.  I can, however, change how I view the world.  As I evolve, so will those around me. As I heal, all will heal.  I know that when I live in the space of Love and Light, those around me will have to join me eventually or leave.  This allows me the joy of knowing all those around me are of Love and Light no matter what may show on the surface.  I no longer feel like I need to "watch my back" in business.  I know EVERYTHING, and I mean everything, that happens is for the highest and best good. After all, we are here to learn from each other, assist one another, and work together--- As ONE Loving Being, no matter what!

One of my favorite ways to TUNE IN TO SOUND is with a Reiki Sound Session! 

If you are new to a Reiki Sound Session…your session will begin with a basic review of what to expect during the Reiki SOUND SESSION, and this includes a sampling of some of the sounds.  You’ll also be asked if you would like to have aromatherapy included in your session.

Next, the recipient of a Reiki Sound Session lies on a massage table (a chair can also be used) and is reminded to just R-E-L-A-X, Breathe, and Surrender to the Sounds!

The session begins with the Soothing Sounds from the OCEAN Drum.  The OCEAN Drum typically sounds like the ocean and waves rolling on the shore. Sometimes the OCEAN drum is experienced as rain.  Either way, the OCEAN Drum can R-E-L-A-X the body and free the mind and spirit.

Crystal and Tibetan metal bowls are placed around or near the body.  The sounds from the crystal bowls and Tibetan metal bowls may sound like beautiful church bells or familiar cosmic sounds.      

The Sound Session also includes a Chakra Tune Up using Tuning Forks and Crystals on or near the 7 Major Chakras and a little reflexology or acupressure with Tuning Forks.  The vibrating Tuning Forks are placed on or near the chakras and on a few pressure points located on the hands, feet, and body.

The Reiki Sound Session closes with the Powerful “Grounding” Sounds from my 22-inch Luna Mama Buffalo drum and aromatherapy (optional) along with additional time for you to rest and slowly bring your focus back to the room. 

.A Sound Healing Session continues long after your session ends, as sound has a residual effect on the body, mind, and spirit.  Some of the benefits of a Sound Healing include:  reverses some of the impact of stress on your DNA, improves circulation, increases mental clarity, releases endorphins, expands consciousness and also awakens or enhances your intuition, inner healer, creativity, passion, and joy, strengthening your spiritual senses and aura!

Aromatherapy Essential Oils Recipe for Relaxation and Remembering Dreams:

Add 10 drops of Lavender and 5 drops Frankincense to 4 oz of distilled water.  Shake and store in dark glass container with a secure lid until you are ready to use it.  Transfer the liquid into a spray bottle and spray your pillow case and sheet.  Please note:  Your sheets will not be stained IF you are using a pure quality essential oil.   

Color therapy – Use the color vibration of BLUE to relax and calm the body, mind and spirit.  The color BLUE is a soothing and peaceful color associated with healing our emotions and spirit.  Add the Color Blue to your life if you want to feel peaceful and calm, speak your truth, channel healing energies, improve your communication skills, and connect with your spiritual purpose.

Don't you just love spring time?  It's a time of renewal and hope and it's a time for fresh starts with new energy.  The old saying "spring cleaning" really rings true for me.  I do a complete reorganization of my home, garage and garden.  I get rid of the unused items I have accumulated and create an all new energy shift.  This energy shift allows me to work on projects I have felt stuck on and also I just feel better and lighter.

Another fresh start I like to take is to reevaluate my focus for my family and myself.  What are our goals, dreams and wishes?  How are we directing our attention?  Are we staying positive and trusting the necessary components are coming together and do we have the proponent desires and predisposing beliefs?  We all have to remember thoughts are things. We can have anything we desire but we must not cancel that desire with a conflicting desire or belief.

Sound can be viewed as a healing modality that can be used alone or combined with Meditation, Reiki, Reflexology, Acupressure, Massage, etc.  It is also safe to combine with Western medicine and known to shorten the recovery time. 

Everything is energy and everything vibrates.  Einstein’s E=mc² shows that energy can be converted into matter and vice versa.  Everything vibrates, whether in the form of energy, like sound, or in the form of matter.  I like Jonathan Goldman’s comparison of the human body being like an orchestra where the sound of each organ and each function combines to create the music of the body. When one aspect of the body gets ill or out of balance, the whole orchestra may give off disharmonic waves, causing disease.

By Tuning In To Sound you actually hear and feel the sound and vibrations beyond just your ears.  Sound resonates throughout your body and even on a cellular level.  Negative experiences and negative emotions such as fears are held in the body lowering our vibration and eventually manifesting as blocked energy in the body, and if these blocks aren’t released, this can bring on an emotional, mental and physical imbalance and dis-ease.

The Sounds and Vibrations from Aromatherapy, Color Therapy, Drumming (percussion), Ganta (bell), Gongs, Singing Bowls, Tingshaws and Tuning Forks resonate throughout the body and even on a cellular level.  The Sounds can fairly quickly R-E-L-A-X and harmonize the emotional, mental, physical and spiritual bodies.  Some of the benefits of a Sound Healing include:  reverses some of the impact of stress on your DNA, improves circulation/blood pressure, releases endorphins, increases mental clarity, expands consciousness and increases your overall health and well being.  Sound can also awaken or enhance your creativity, passion, joy, intuition, and inner wisdom, and strengthen your spiritual sense and aura.

Aromatherapy and Color Therapy Tip – Rose essential oil has the highest measured frequency (320 MHz).  The Color Rose resonates with Unconditional Love.  Love is also the highest emotional frequency we can emit!   Rose Essential Oil and the Color Rose can be used to balance the body, mind and spirit.  Interesting:  It takes about 180 lbs of roses to make one ounce of rose oil.  The Magical Musical Message associated with the Frequency of Rose is from a song by Willie Nelson called “Angel’s Flying Too Close to the Ground.”  The lyrics “Love is the greatest healer to be found” resonate with the Rose essential oil and color vibration of Rose.
