Seven Ways & Seven Days To Renew Your Life NEW!
by Carole Lynne


To renew and reinvent our lives, WE NEED A PLAN! Here it is: a seven-day process to work with over and over. This plan incorporates physical, mental and spiritual work. Use the whole seven-day process, or choose any one of the days to work with as you create the life you want.

DAY 1: RE-CHARGE A Day of Commitment

Focus on changing your mind-set: This is the day to change the thought patterns playing in your mind. Get rid of phrases such as "I can't." "Why does this happen to me?" "Things always seem to go wrong." "After three bad things happen, life will change for the better." Insert thoughts such as "I can do it." "There are creative solutions to any problem."

Premonitions and Spirituality
by Larry Dossey, M.D.,

Spirituality involves an awareness of being connected with something greater than the individual ego or self. This "something greater" has traditionally been called God, Goddess, Allah, Great Spirit, the Almighty, the Absolute, and many other names. Some consider it as the Universe, or as a sense of infinite order and beauty. Many individuals prefer to attribute no name whatever to it. But whether named or unnamed, the awareness of a connectedness with something greater than the "I" has been a source of strength and meaning for individuals throughout human history.

Individuals often find that their power of sensing and knowing expands as they mature spiritually. These expanded capacities often involve the capacity to know yet-to-be events that lie in the future, as the unbroken stream of prophets, visionaries, seers, and shamans throughout history attests. A modern analog of this ancient ability to know the future is premonitions, sometimes called intuition, gut feelings, or sixth sense.

Addressing Our Economy With Spirit

by Trish Whynot, D.C.Ed. 

The worst thing that could happen to our economy–and to ourselves—is to allow economics to rule our souls. Joy feeds our souls and when times are tough or scary, the first menu items to go are often those that bring us the most joy. Even when these items don’t cost anything, our tendency is to go into self-deprivation mode. We tell ourselves that we don’t have time for the things that bring us joy because we are too busy trying to survive. Our fear says we must choose between survival and joy. While that may seem the “logical” solution, starving our souls won’t heal our economy. 

We need to ask ourselves what brings us joy, and to distinguish those things from what merely boosts our egos or impresses our neighbors. Anything that brings forth joy connects us in some way with Spirit: it inspires us, expresses us or lifts us up. But this is an area in which we must practice discernment—to distinguish between things that genuinely nurture the soul and those that merely act as a substitute for spiritual enrichment. At the same time, it is important to realize that what one person uses as a status symbol can be a genuine source of joy to another. That which feeds soul is fulfilling while that which feeds ego creates debt.

Visualize Prosperity
by Shakti Gawain

A very important part of the whole creative visualization process is developing a sense of prosperity. This means having the understanding, or consciously taking the point of view, that the universe is abundant, that life is actually trying to bring us what our hearts and souls truly desire — spiritually, mentally, emotionally, as well as physically. Almost everything you truly need or want is here for the asking; you only need to believe that it is so, truly desire it, and be willing to accept it.

Celebrate Freedom   
by Marlene Buffa

Recorded history focuses on government and spans time by ticking the meter of war. From as early as the Bronze Age, one of the first recorded conflicts arose in Greece, popularly known as the Trojan War. As we study world history, we notice that most wars arose from either greed or confinement. Man rebels when he seeks to conquer more of what lies outside of himself, and also when what abides within him seeks liberation. Similarly, our spiritual selves rebel when we perceive limitation imposed on us by others, or deliberate harm inflicted through violation of boundaries. Our nature, as inhabitants of the earth and spiritual beings, treasures freedom from outside intruders and also from our self-imposed limitations.

Beyond Self-Image
by Christopher R. Edgar

A few years ago, I was fixated on overcoming what I saw as my “negative self-image.” Basically, the problem was that I wanted to do certain things I thought would be enjoyable and fulfilling, but I was afraid of doing them. I wanted to start my own business, make more of an effort to meet people, take up more “extreme” sports, and so forth, but I would feel anxiety when I’d contemplate doing those things, and would find myself holding back.

Guilt-Free Mindfulness
by Sue Patton Thoele

Mindfulness is being aware of yourself, others, and your surroundings in the moment.  Well-known mindfulness teacher, Jon Kabat-Zinn, defines it this way Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way; on purpose, in the present moment, and nonjudgmentally. I also like to think of mindfulness as the art of inhabiting your own life with kindness and acceptance.

The Voice of Fate vs. the Voice of Destiny
by Robert Ohotto

It’s human instinct to reach for the familiar, but the soul is here for experience, not security. A life without risk, loss, death, and pain is hardly vitalized. The more we resist the call to adventure, the more we fate ourselves to suffering of the worst kind. In such cases, the Universe will often deliver increasingly drastic events until we finally give up the ego’s hold on our soul’s schedule and allow the next chapter of our purpose—our Destiny—to unfold.

Why Do We Feel Sick All the Time: Metaphysical ‘Cures’ For What Ails Us 
by Steven E. Hodes, M.D. 

Many of us suffer from the “I feel sick syndrome.”

We are not truly “ill,” in the sense that we do not have a significant malfunction of an organ or organ system that can be readily diagnosed by traditional contemporary medical testing. But we certainly experience bouts of discomfort, pain or distress—in other words, we just don’t feel right—we just feel sick!

Boost Your Brain Power with Powerful "Smart" Foods
by Jeannine Virtue

Memory decline is a common complaint as we move through the aging process. The typical 60-year-old is not as sharp mentally as they were in their 40s. That said, some people do age slower than others. There are 80 year olds with the mind and body of people decades their minor. There are 70 year olds who can easily match wits with 40 year olds.

Shielding and Protection: The Barrier To Something We Don't Want To Experience
by Christopher Cormier

I'm going to be honest with you. I have issues with this particular topic. Far too often the concepts of shielding and protection are filled with misunderstandings and a lot of drama. Rather than create a sense of security and comfort within Self, despite the appearance of safety, it tends to reinforce a belief that one is powerless. This in turn reinforces the fear that shapes our experience.

"Let There Be Light" -  Is Matter Only An Illusion?
by Chris Bourne

Is matter only an illusion? Do we exist as waves of energy on a vast sea of light - a hologram created by pure consciousness? Quantum theory threatens to unite science and spirituality as it pulls apart the very building blocks from which our world appears to be made. How might quantum theory explain the creation of the universe? Here is a perspective to stimulate your own thinking.

The Perception--Well-being Connection
by Kimmie Smith

Our own perception of the world and those we're personally involved with stems from our childhood. If you grew up with one or more parent(s) who displayed constant anxiety, worry, anger, etc., then you have most likely adopted that same behavior as an adult. Some people eventually recognize this in themselves and some never do. And even when the ones that do recognize this in themselves they tend to just accept that behavior as "who they are." They might try, through various methods, to rid themselves of this unwanted negative behavior only to wind up frustrated when something triggers a certain emotion and they find it hasn't really left. So they give up and just accept that this is who they are and that change is impossible. Maybe they are still hearing the message that has been given to them over a lifetime, "Oh, that's just they way you've always been, that's your personality and you'll never change." They then decide that they are comfortable this way and fear any kind of change, even if it would mean a positive change.

Will the World Really End on December 21, 2012?
by Jean-Claude Koven


I was recently asked how I interpreted the Mayan and Hopi predictions that the world, as we know it, will end on the 21st of December 2012. Would there be global war — possibly triggering a nuclear holocaust? Would the planet’s life forms finally succumb to the ecological quagmire that’s been building in our soils, oceans and atmosphere? Would the current steady increase of previously unknown diseases overcome our ability to defend against them? Or will we suddenly move into a new Golden Age in which the lion lies down with the lamb and struggle, pain, and suffering are gone forever?

Moving Beyond the Fear of Success

Some long for a better present but spend their time living only in the future…existing mainly on the promise of tomorrow.

Seven Simple Brain Promoting Nutritional Tips
by Daniel G. Amen, M.D.

Here is the seven step plan to get your diet under control and to use food as brain medicine.

1. Increase water intake
Given that your brain is about 80% water, the first rule of brain nutrition is adequate water to hydrate your brain. Even slight dehydration can raise stress hormones which can damage your brain over time. Drink at least 84 ounces of water a day. It is best to have your liquids unpolluted with artificial sweeteners, sugar, caffeine, or alcohol. You can use herbal, non-caffeinated tea bags, such as raspberry or strawberry flavored, and make unsweetened iced tea. Green tea is also good for brain function as it contains chemicals that enhance mental relaxation and alertness.

We've Been Living in a Dream World
by Jean-Claude Koven


"Most people are other people," Oscar Wilde once remarked. "Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation." As he so wryly observed, the vast majority of us are not who we've been pretending to be, and the lives we've been living until now are molded according to rules and values that are not our own. Most of humanity is stuck in someone else's discarded chewing gum and has yet to break free.

Effectively Working with Affirmations
by Katheryn Hoban 

In my years of teaching and counseling I have come to the conclusion that many people are unsure of what affirmations are, how to use them, what great tools they can be, or what good benefits can be manifested by working with affirmations in both children and adults. In the simplest form an affirmation is a statement of a positive effect, result, or of a future event that you would like to achieve. Usually an affirmation is stated in the present moment and in positive verbiage and wordage. For an example “ I can do this” as opposed to “I’d like to do this” or “I’m going to do this.” The sentence “ I can do this” is set in the present moment and it implies confidence in one’s ability to accomplish the task and an immediacy to take action. The statement “ I’d like to do this.” Implies that it is not quite possible but you are yearning to do it but (something out of your control) is preventing that.  “I’m going to do this” implies sometime in the future when all the conditions are right. In that case we can make an assumption that the conditions will never be right.

Getting Unstuck Via Your Higher Self

Have you ever had those times when you feel like you're up against the wall and don't know what to do? There just doesn't seem to be any way around an obstacle?

Do You Really Want to Know the Truth?
by Jean-Claude Koven 

Back in 1992, Jack Nicholson and Tom Cruise co-starred in a movie entitled A Few Good Men. The high point of the film, in my view, was a classic, heated exchange between their characters, during which Kaffee (the military attorney played by Cruise) says: “I want the truth,” and Col. Jessup (Nicholson) responds: “You can’t handle the truth.”

People who love working out, but can’t seem to stop stressing out, need to know that it is possible to get a sweat on and at the same time reduce their stress. Of course, this can come naturally over the course of heavy workout when our body releases endorphins in the form of “runner’s high,” or through the euphoria we can attain when we reach difficult fitness goals. But more focused approaches exist. As a whole health consultant, I recommend to readers any of these five great paths to stronger muscles and a more peaceful mind:

The 5 Hindrances Of The Mind: Are They Blocking Your Self-Esteem? 
by Deborah Shipley

The issue of self-esteem is perhaps one of the greatest determinates in creating a life of freedom and abundance, or feeling inhibited and “just getting by“. Self-esteem is defined as “a feeling of pride in oneself“. It is how you feel in relation to yourself rather than how others see you. It’s between you and, well… you. Therefore, it’s not necessary to be so concerned about what others think to determine your level of self -esteem, as the definition does not include any “others“, just you. So where can you help yourself to better understand you? There are so many aspects of you but one that is of great importance is that of your mind.

Accessing Your Higher Mind
by John Holland

The more we stay connected to our higher mind - which we also call the universe, the source, or spirit - the more we strengthen and build that crucial bridge between ourselves and our higher consciousness. While we're all born connected to this divine awareness, we have a tendency to pull away from what was once natural. It's reasonable to assume that when we become disconnected from our higher mind, the source that once nourished us will be replaced with another source or substitute. In other words, the connection could be with food, alcohol, nicotine, co-dependency to someone or even work - hence the term workaholic. Many of us spend our lives trying to fill that void which was created when the link was broken.

Why Even Bother? The Importance of Motivation 
by Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D

If, from the meditative perspective, everything you are seeking is already here, even if it is difficult to wrap your thinking mind around that concept, if there really is no need to acquire anything or attain anything or improve yourself, if you are already whole and complete and by that same virtue so is the world, then why on earth bother meditating? Why would we want to cultivate mindfulness in the first place? And why use particular methods and techniques, if they are all in the service of not getting anywhere anyway, and when, moreover, I've just finished saying that methods and techniques are not the whole of it anyway?

Break Through the Barrier Between You and True Peace
by Guy Finley

If we wish to find peace we must understand something of its life. Here are a few such facts: Peace is the natural radiation of a living Now; it is one with that Light whose life is the eternal present itself, even as the emanations of light and warmth are one with the sun from which they radiate. If our intuition can perceive that the above ideas are based in truth, then we should be naturally moved to ask the  following question: If this peace we long for is inherent in this perfectly present moment we call the "Now," what is it that keeps us from knowing the fulfillment of its promise within us? Let's look.

Fighting Terror with Forgiveness
by D. Patrick Miller
 
Let’s face it -­ most people probably think of forgiveness as the last resort of losers. It’s what you’re left with after you’ve been victimized and can’t figure out a way to inflict revenge. If there’s no way to even the score, then you might as well settle for feeling a little better about yourself by becoming noble. And if you forgive what happened to you, maybe someday you can forget all about it. Or, maybe whoever hurt you will eventually feel guilty about what they did, and come begging for your forgiveness. Then you get to decide whether they deserve it. (Probably not!)

Self Hypnosis or Shelf Hypnosis?
by Richard Blumenthal


Self hypnosis is usually thought of as a person listening to an audio tape, mp3, or other mass-produced media, intended to induce a willingness to absorb suggestions centered around a specific topic such as weight loss, stop smoking, etc. Unfortunately, this kind of hypnosis is generally prepared by someone who has never met the person being hypnotized, often presenting unwanted, even unpleasant imagery and suggestions. For example, if you sunburn easily, that last thing you want to hear about is a slow walk on a sunny beach. In this case, the "self" in self hypnosis simply means that you listen to it by yourself!

The Art Of Receiving
by Sharon Warren


Receiving: verb (r-sving)
To admit; to take in; to hold; to contain; to have capacity for; to be able to take in. To allow or to accept.

 
Recently, four of us were celebrating the January birthdays of two girlfriends at a Scottsdale restaurant. We had a wonderful lunch, followed by going to see Calendar Girls. I arrived at the theater first and purchased my ticket. I had no idea that Birthday Girl #1 wanted to gift each of us movie tickets. Friend #3 was having “receiving” issues, sputtering in protest, “It’s your birthday and you shouldn’t be buying tickets for us!”  I responded, “It is her joy to give and you are taking away her happiness if you don’t receive this.”  She got it instantly—and accepted the gift graciously.

Using Colors And Stones With Meditation
by Keith Zang

Meditation is a very powerful tool to use for reducing and releasing the stress of the day as well as for healing and bringing enlightenment into your being. There are many methods for meditation. Some tap into mindfulness to bring the present moment into focus. Others utilize the breath to create a sense of timelessness by focusing on a single sensation or point and letting all other distractions go. This article will be focused on another type of meditation, that of the energetic healing form where the energies of the body and surrounding life force energies are focused for dynamic and accelerated healing.

What's In Your Blind Spot?
by Sulana Stone


We frantically search for our “lost” keys that are lying in plain sight on the kitchen counter. We don’t we see the keys. Why not? Because we already decided “the keys are not there.” And once we make that decision, we create a blind spot in our awareness. The result is that we don’t see the keys where we don’t expect them to be.

Yoga And World Peace
by Megan McDonough

 

Last week my husband and I went to war with each other. It was nothing as dramatic as a divorce or separation; just a commonplace marital spat with intense emotion behind it. It all started with what should have been a joyous occasion: a trip to the maternity ward to visit a nephew and his wife who had just given birth to their new son.

Ten Steps To A New Life In The New Year
by Lynn A. Robinson

"If only." Two of the most regret-laden words in the English language. "If only" I'd taken that job. "If only" I hadn't taken that trip. And right now, "if only" becomes especially poignant because the end of another year marks the beginning of yet another round of regrets that you still can't seem to get it right.

Everyday Enlightenment: The Twelve Gateways to Personal Growth 
Opening to Life
by Dan Millman

Aaron and Charlotte, brother and sister, are born into a two-parent, stable, middle-class household. Their parents are educated, hardworking, caring, have no alcohol problems, abusive habits, or guilty secrets. Aaron grows up successful--earns good grades, wins a junior chess championship, plays sports, and later earns a good income to support a family of his own. Charlotte does moderately well in school but chooses unsavory friends, starts using heroin and other drugs, turns to theft and prostitution to support her habit, which leads to jail time and the hell of withdrawal.

Today, after researching spiritual phenomenon for three years, I have no doubts that other people can achieve hypnotic regression to a past life; I just don’t believe I can do it. At least that was my story until recently, after experiencing a successful past-life regression of my own.

A Precision-Tuned Body
by Pat Burke

We often use the term stress to refer to the negative effects of external factors such as noise, crowding, performance expectations and deadlines. Most people experience stress as something that happens to them. More accurately, stress itself is neutral, referring to pressures on an organism or system. Health, adaptation and evolution can be desirable outcomes when an organism is forced to respond to a large amount and intensity of stimulation or change. An experience that creates excitement and exhilaration in one person can cause deep anxiety and debilitating stress for another. Anytime an organism is overloaded, stress can occur, possibly followed by disease.

The Biology of Success

Mental energy is the basic foundation of success. Look at corporate titans such as Michael Eisner, Martha Stewart, and Jack Welch, or world leaders such as Nelson Mandela, Tony Blair, and Margaret Thatcher, or super moms from Maria Von Trapp to Barbara Bush. High mental energy is what they all have or had in common. Mental energy is the brain's power supply -- the more power you have, the longer and harder you can work. Compare your work output the morning after taking a red-eye to that after a refreshing night's sleep. It's brain energy that makes the difference.

Healing Back Pain: The Mind-Body Connection
by John E. Sarno

I have never seen a patient with pain in the neck, shoulders, back or buttocks who didn't believe that the pain was due to an injury, a "hurt" brought on by some physical activity. "I hurt myself while running (playing basketball, tennis, bowling)." "The pain started after I lifted my little girl" or "when I tried to open a stuck window." "Ten years ago I was involved in a hit-from-behind auto accident and I have had recurrent back pain ever since."

The Latest Development
In Measuring Biofeedback

It works on the same principals as an EKG (which measures heart frequency data) where an individual is hooked up to electrodes to read frequencies of the body. It then prints these frequencies out on a monitor enabling the doctor to diagnose what is going on with that part of the body.

Befriending the Mosquito

Befriend the mosquito? Am I crazy? Perhaps, but I don’t get itchy bumps anymore so I thought that I would share my little secret with you....

Like most individuals, I used to think that mosquitoes were a mistake. How could anything so annoying be anything else? I’d go camping for the weekend and just as I would settle down to enjoy a nice sunset, a loud buzzing noise would begin to encircle my head and my ankles and the backs of my knees. Then prick! And prick! And prick again! Itchy red welts would begin to appear that lasted for days; sometimes weeks. The peaceful sunset would be lost in a flurry of slaps and claps.

All Hypnosis is Self Hypnosis 
by Lia Maria Salciccia

Hypnosis and hypnotherapy have the unfortunate reputation as being forms of mind control. This is partly due to the history of modern hypnosis, which began with a man named Anton Mesmer, who moved magnets through people's energy fields and achieved great success in healing people of all sorts of maladies. Mesmer, who went from being one of the most celebrated figures of Paris to being  an outcast. He was investigated by a panel of Scientists and Academics who decreed his animal magnetism theory to be bogus. He died poor and ruined.

The problem was, as long as we believed the Sun went around the Earth, we were limited as to how far we could go in the Solar System.

Using The Law Of Vibration To Manifest Your Vision

Science reveals that everything in the manifest universe is ultimately composed of packets of energy; quantized units vibrating at specific frequencies. Esoteric wisdom reveals that in the beginning, all things were created through sound (i.e. vibration); whether it be the "OM" of Eastern mysticism or the "Word"/Logos of Western spirituality.

What's Hard To Find, But Always With You?
by Richard Blumenthal

To create a wonderful life, you first need to make a choice: will you use your thinking to help yourself to the happy, fulfilling life you wish for, or will you allow the often haphazard, random ideas we gather over time to non-consciously run your life for you? What you think leads directly to feelings and actions. Think in one direction, you will feel and act accordingly. Think differently, your feelings and actions will be different. Those thoughts are powerful, aren't they? The only trouble is, ideas can become so ingrained that we don't even need to be aware for them to exert instant control over us.

Certainly there are likely to be many other Aikido practitioners that would explain their experiences and beliefs in a manner that is somewhat different than mine. I offer you here, one experience, my experience, and thus all that I say is part of my belief system, and not at all necessarily THE truth.

In the epic Indian tale of the Bhagavad Gita, Arjuna the warrior faces a terrible conflict in which his friends, former teachers, and relatives are divided in battle. Casting away his bow and arrows, Arjuna sinks down on the chariot, his mind overborne by grief. Kripalu yoga teacher Christopher Baxter, providing commentary on Chapter One: The Despair of Arjuna explains, “Arjuna finds himself on the battlefield, preparing for a conflict between all his relations, all of whom are parts of himself. The soul finds itself on the battlefield of the body, preparing for a conflict between the life of spirit and the domination of materialism, held in place by the polarities of fear and desire."”

I also began observing what my clients had learned regarding honoring, respecting and cherishing themselves and others and how what we were taught had impacted our lives. The results were rather enlightening so I thought I’d share. Since growth and healing are why we are here, why not enjoy the process. Relationships can be an awesome playground for personal growth and healing when we can take our energy off of blaming and direct it toward learning, healing and understanding.

Ancient Answers for Modern Problems: The Toltec Tradition–Answers For Today From an Ancient Way
by Dr. Susan Gregg

If any ancient wisdom held ‘the answer’ we would already have ‘the solution’ to our problems. As Basho so eloquently said, “Don't seek to follow the footsteps of the men of old, seek what they sought instead.” The Toltec tradition is incredibly rich in tools that encourage you to develop a profound connection to your inherent wisdom, power, goodness, and divinity. As you transform your life they assist you in finding your answers within yourself. These tools do require effort as well as discipline and dedication but I can guarantee you that if you use them magic will occur, your life will be transformed, and nothing will ever be the same.
