What is the Life Your Were Born To Live?
In my private practice for the past 15 years I have discovered
how hungry we are to find deep fulfillment and loving, make wise
choices for ourselves and the planet, and walk in union with our
higher guidance. Yet our days are filled with endless, empty lists of have-tos,
shoulds, and must-dos. Quality time with our families, friends
and ourselves is precious but brief. We swallow our food fast and
information faster - and yet what our mind tells us does not
bring us peace, and what we eat does not fill us up. Ask yourself, what truly brings you lasting fulfillment and joy?
What can you feed yourself that creates deep satisfaction? Which
voice do you listen to for guidance when the hounds of fear,
worry and anxiety are howling in your ears? I believe this 'missing' enthusiasm and joy is found when we
discover our personal heaven and begin living heaven on earth. Accustomed to your ordinary world view, you fail to realize that
another might exist beyond the dots of your to-do lists. Life
presents many opportunities, each one capable of expanding your
'seeing' to encompass new possibilities. I saw a major glimpse of my 'heaven' in 1987 during a 6 day
personal growth seminar. At the time I was living a life many
considered heavenly: happy marriage, two beautiful children,
wealthy lifestyle, and plenty of time to pursue my fancies. Yet,
in the wee hours of the morning my secret despair, loneliness and
fear woke me up night after night. Inside I knew the lie of my
'happy' life. I did not know the purpose for taking my next
breath. At the seminar when the facilitator began talking about
the banquet table of life I suddenly beheld this larger way of
living, this glimpse of heaven. I wanted to bolt for the door. The fear of facing the unknown 'me' inside was, at that time,
bigger than living out my lack-luster life. But this defining
moment did not fade from my memory. In time, I began the
sometimes scary journey of moving beyond the dot-based
experience, visioning my heaven and taking my steps. Your heaven lies lurking just beyond those dots. And it takes an
inside job to fully experience it. But upon seeing
a glimpse of this larger reality do you abandon your dot-based
reality? No, because mastering the shift from 'This is all there
is' to 'Look at all there is!" takes patience, practice,
guidance, willingness, grace, and time. You can begin today. Take a few minutes over the next week - schedule it right now in
your day timer of PDA. *clear your desk
*turn off the phone
*light a candle
*have paper and pen available
*close your eyes
*take in a deep breath
*allow the greater part of you to begin showing you, like gazing
at a large movie screen, YOU living your personal heaven. Be aware of how you feel as you 'watch' each area of your life
align with this expanded arena. What is the new experience of
your *relationships?
*finances?
*career?
*health?
*creativity?
*spirituality? Jot down those qualities: peace, joy, loving, ease, well-being,
energy, focus, caring, relaxation, radiant health, compassion...
or fear, sadness, regret. Accept whatever appears. Step Two: If your heaven is available now, what do you need to
let go of in this moment to experience it? Allow the answer to come forward easily. Breathe in deeply and take that step. The life you were born
to live is waiting.

Be Not Afraid, Ye of Midlife
Millions of people face huge changes in their lives during the midlife years and most seem to be glad they made the changes, but only if they've faced their own longings for meaning with integrity. Midlife can be defined as anywhere from 35 to 60, but usually comes on around the mid-forties or later. It's built into our psyches, just as other developmental stages at other ages are pre-programmed. Not everyone will experience it as an apparent period of change, though. Some women, and men too, just sense a slight change of priorities, values and perhaps a slight adjustment of goals if they recognize their midlife dilemmas at all. If you're one of the ones that are turning your life upside down, be not afraid.

Law of Attraction Article: Do You Know About The Power Of Flow?
Flow is the quality of ease that can be integrated into a life to give it the look and feel of almost effortless achievement. It's not as elusive as it may seem. We all know people who go through life attracting opportunity after opportunity; or those who have a knack for being at the right place at the right time to connect with the right people.
Attitude Is Everything
The process of human change begins within us. We all have tremendous potential. We all desire good results from our efforts. Most of us are willing to work hard and to pay the price that success and happiness demand.
The Magic of Breathing
So, what is magic? Is it an illusion or is it real? The Webster's dictionary describes magic as "The art of producing affects by superhuman means; Any mysterious power, ex: the magic of love. Producing extraordinary results, as if by magic". Miracles are made from the same stuff as magic. They defy explanation by the rational logical mind.
Getting What You Want Most From Other People
Very often in relationships we do not seem to
be able to get the one thing we want more than
anything else - the approval of other people.
In fact the more we want it the more difficult

The Take-off!
"I just can't start a conversation with women, and it's killing me. I'll see a female who I've been making good eye contact with, but I'm too shy to talk to her. Later when I'm at home I yell at myself for not trying. I know they're not all going to come to me. It really bothers me that I'm so shy. I'm really afraid that if this keeps up I'll miss my chance to find my one true love. "
Basic Intuitive Timing for Business and Life
"There is a tide in the affairs of men,
which taken at the flood leads on to fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage of their life
