Hopeful you all have had and are experiencing the blessings of the Holy Days. I am also wishing you a Happy New Year filled with abundant blessings!!! 

If you have spent any time browsing our site you may have noticed that my art is centered in the messages of words and symbols. Words and symbolic messages are so very powerful and stimulate a multitude of feelings and intentions to those who are expressing them as well as to those who are receiving them.  We’ve all heard the old adage ’sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me’. Like most of us, I myself have experienced the pain of ’sticks and stones’ and have healed with time and proper care. Again, like most of us…I have also experienced words that defy the old adage. Words can cause more pain than sticks and stones, and in some cases, never heal. These painfully damaging words can lead to a lifetime of illness on all planes… body, mind and spirit. Proof of this is being revealed through the science of quantum physics more and more everyday.

I recall reading Deepak Chopra’s book many years ago ‘Ageless Body - Timeless Mind’ as some of the ‘first scientific evidence’ of this fact made available to the public. It was life changing for many people including myself. He talked about two different people riding a roller coaster. One of them was thrilled and exhilarated, the other frightened and sickened by the ride. The thrilled person was releasing hormones/chemicals, etc., they were immune stimulating etc., and the frightened person was releasing hormones/chemicals, etc., they were immune depressing. This scientific evidence was proof that what we are ‘feeling’ had a major impact on our physical bodies.

With that said, I would like to suggest that this new year we all make a commitment to ourselves to take a serious look at the words we choose to use and the energy driving them. Not just in what we say to others but also in what we say to ourselves. Pause and think about our words…choose them wisely. There is great power in the pause.

I recently had the honor and privledge to be interviewed on a similar topic where I was able to share a little about Dr. Emoto’s work with ‘The Messages in water’ https://www.hado.net/index.php. The interview will be playing on the internet show/website Chikii~woman to woman http://www.chikii.com/.   I was able to share my perspective on a word that is/has been used to describe a woman (not a word I like the energy of), the show is titled ‘Are you a B-I-T-C-H?  http://www.chikii.com/areyouabitch.php I’ve been told the show will be airing for about a week, please take the time to view it and share it with anyone you think may benefit, I feel it is a poitive show and something I am pleased to share.

I’m signing off on this entry feeling deep Love, Joy and Appreciation for all of life’s experiences and people. I am demonstrating this feeling by using the word and energy of Namaste’… a Sanskrit word with a variety of interpertations, but a word that does not have a one word English interpretation. I am using it to energetically say to you that ‘The Divine in me acknowledges and recognizes the Divine in you. May you share and experience Divinity in 2007 and always…in all ways.

As I like to do, I’m including a photo of one of my new designs that incorporates this energetic concept for you to use a re-minder tool.

 

As I sat down this morning to write this I realized I hadn’t written anything during the entire month of November. I had fully intended to but life happens while you’re making other plans.

I began to observe myself using one of my old mental programs…. “I can’t believe you actually let this much time go by…you really need to get more on top of this…yadayadayada” As I consciouosly shifted more and more into the observer or witness mode I began to breathe deeply and then laugh at myself, followed by praising myself for this observer awareness and my Creator for giving me these fantastic tools!!! The tools to step outside of my ego (even if only momentarialy) and love myself enough to become the observer/wittness self.

As I began this praising I could physically feel my vibration begin to rise, I noticed I began to smile and feel good again. With this feeling good again…this feeling of joy I can now attract more joy into my life and share it with others. The sharing with others is key for me and I believe for us all. For in the sharing we are creating…exactly what we came here to do - create.

Let’s all create our own inner joy, become the observer, the witness self. Step outside of the ego that wants to keep us prisoner of the old mental and emotional programs. Begin the praisng of all things. Laugh in the face of your previous selves, praise your own courage and you will Raise your vibration and this feeling will ripple out into the Univese of your world and you will attract more of it and be able to share more of it.

As we notice the hussle & bussle around us and/or in us during this Holiday season let’s all remember to look for the good and pRAISE it!!!! By doing this we are helping to uplift and shift the collective awareness of humanity.

If you are looking for a little assistance in shifting just about any aspect in your life I would like to recommend my friend, customer and colleague, Christina Carpentier. She is a Master Shift Coach and helps to guide people while they are knee deep in shift. You can check out her site at http://www.shiftcoach.com/

As I generally do…included below is one of my designages that we produce as a notecard representing this concept. You can use it as a reminder to connect to pRAISE and Raise. Also, here is a link to the card collection it is a part of on the site. http://www.insacredspace.com/products_going_within.htm.

IN the Spirit of Oneness, not sameness….I pRAISE you for your courage to be here… to live, love, laugh, cry, to feel. To be here or there for another, to look for the good and pRAISE it!
