Rainbows, Potholes & Nuggets of Gold

In a previous post I mentioned that I am a huge fan of Dr. Joe Dispenza's work and that we would be talking about him soon. Well, soon is now LOL! I discovered Dr. Dispenza a few years ago when I heard an interview where he described how he healed his broken spine through the power of his mind. As you know I am a Science nerd, so his story captivated me. I've followed his work and been practicing Dr. Joe's meditations consistently for 2 years now and I can't even begin to explain how my life has changed. One thing is this blog. As I mentioned in my initial post I'd wrestled with the idea of sharing this type of information for years. Since meditating and letting go of so many limiting beliefs, here we are. Another thing is starting, or reinstating my Life Coaching business, which you can see I've done also. Soon I'll have a YouTube channel, "Coaching in PJs" ™ which is something I would never have dreamed much less dared to do 3 years ago! This breif post is simply an introduction to Dr. Joe Dispenza and his amazing work. I promise we will be dicussing him more. But for now, he has an indepth study of the effects meditation has on the body with all kinds of data and research and testimonials. Proof that his own personal healing (as well as hundreds, perhaps thousands of other people's) wasn't a fluke or accident. I LOVE this film and believe you will too. Check it out HERE. I promise you will not regret it. Until next time, take care and happy meditating!

The question has been posed, integrity examined …. “Do you REALLY believe all this positivity stuff? Do you REALLY believe it can change a life?” In John, Jesus said “This is the work of God, that you believe…” Now I know the Scripture goes on to say that we believe “on him whom He hath sent” meaning we are to believe in HIM. But think about it…. He also said, “Whatever you say when you pray, believe you have received, and it shall be given unto you.” God told us in Deuteronomy that the power of life and death are in our tongue. So to answer the question, Yes, I believe…. I believe Jesus is my Lord and Savior but He is also my brother, friend and teacher. I believe God is the Almighty creator of the universe as well as my loving father who wants to bless me with the wildest dreams in my heart. I believe God is much bigger than the boxes we put Him in, especially those outlined in the Bible. I believe the Bible is the inspired word of God but it has been written by man, filtered through human consciousness and subject to the circumstances and culture of the time. I believe there are depths and levels of faith and spirituality we may never understand but I also believe it pleases God when we try, ask questions, seek after answers, and knock on doors of knowledge. I believe, next to love, gratitude is the greatest asset we can ever aspire to have. I believe fear is our biggest obstacle and judgment and guilt are useless wastes of energy. I believe we can rise above our circumstances and “call those things that be not as though they are” (actually the word here is were…. past tense as in been there, done that…so why is it those things we desire are not showing up in our life?) I believe you can not have a positive life with a negative attitude. I believe, with the help of God, you can create a better life for yourself than anyone in your family has ever experienced. I believe selfishness is the root of all evil and that money is simply a means through which God blesses you so that you may be a blessing to others and thereby build His kingdom. I believe love is the most powerful emotion and we are at our highest level of spirituality and closest to God when we give it freely, without expectation of reward. I believe some people love their misery. They are comfortable in it and although they say differently, they really don’t want to change, but want others to change for them. This is the highest level of selfishness. I believe you can’t change the past but you can change the future by your thoughts, words, emotions and actions of today. I believe the past is over, the future isn’t here yet and today is a gift, that’s why it’s called the ‘present’ and we would do well to live fully in the moment. I believe our past may be a contributing factor in our lives today but with love, gratitude, and forgiveness, we can rise above the pain of that time and life a blessed and happy life. I believe heaven is nearer than we think and our loved ones who’ve crossed over as near as our next thought and if we listen close enough, they will continue to speak to us and if we let go of our preconceived notions of heaven being “out there somewhere”, we will experience it here on earth. I believe life is 100% perception…how you perceive things is how they’ll be for you. I believe with God all things are possible and nothing is impossible to them that believe…. Believe in God, believe in yourself, believe in your dreams, believe in your goodness, believe in your beauty, believe in the power of love, peace, joy, happiness, bliss. Believe God is on your side and wants to bless you and quit speaking the opposite! I believe we “eat the fruit” of our words. Speak negative (poverty, lack, sickness, disease) and you’ll attract those things into your circumstances. Speak positive and you’ll create a better life for yourself and those around you. I believe we give too much of our power to others by allowing them to control our thoughts, feelings and emotions. I believe forgiveness unlocks the door to happiness and opens channels of blessing because when we forgive we become more like Jesus. I believe when you heal your own life, you do your part in healing others. I believe there is no time in eternity, so the reason creating a new life takes ‘time’ is because we let doubt and fear block our good and I believe we talk ourselves out of miracles every day. Now I’m not going to sit here and tell you that I never have a bad day despite all I believe. But I will tell you this much, as I continue to walk by faith (not by sight) and speak words of life and love, gratitude and peace, those bad days or incidents are less traumatic and easier to get through than they were before I understood the power of my own thoughts and words. Something to think about…. “Inspirational with an Edge!” ™ "Coaching in PJs" ™ I am a huge fan of Dr. Joe Dispenza and his work (more on him later) so when I heard RJ Spina had healed himself of chest-down paralysis, I had to read his book! Supercharged Self Healing outlines the methods by which Mr. Spina eliminated self-limiting beliefs about his body and it's ability to heal itself. By implementing the Ascend the Frequencies Technique RJ developed to access higher states of consciousness, channel energy and turn off programs of illness, he was able to walk within the 100 days he'd professed to his doctors. This book is filled with information that anyone can use to change their mind, body and life! One statement that stood out to me is this: The moment you give up entirely on reliving the past and projection it's fear-based future, you will feel empowered and energized. Another is: Doubt is simply the low-frequency misuse of your imagination. If you've been in the self-help, personal development field as long as I have, these statements will resonate with you as well. As will the entire, Supercharged Self-Healing and Ascend the Frequencies Technique(s). Read it for yourself and see! Happy Ascending. PamT In a previous post I admitted that I am a Science nerd and discussed Bliss Brain by Dr. Dawson Church. Recently I was introduced to "Whole Brain Living" by Dr. Jill Bolte-Taylor and Oh, My Goodness! I haven't read the book yet but I listened to 2 interviews with Dr. Jill on Suzanne Giesmann's "Messages of Hope" podcast and just had to share this information with you! When I do get a chance to read the book, I will post again. Meanwhile, check out both interviews HERE: Part 1 and Part 2. ENJOY! Until next time, keep learning, keep growing. PamT Dealing with multiple family issues in varying depths of negative physical & emotional drama, I keep hearing the message…. “When you starve your spirit, the body compensates.” Or in most instances, over compensates. Illness, weight issues, depression, addictions; many times these are all physical and emotional symptoms of a starving spirit. The Bible teaches us that “a merry heart does good like medicine” (Prov. 17:22). Proverbs 15:13 tells us, “A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance, But by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.” Bible believing Christian or not, there are medical studies that substantiate this idea. But forget medical proof for a moment and think about the people in your life who are ill. What does their countenance (face, attitude, actions) reveal to you? Are they upbeat and positive or “down in the mouth”? Are they the picture of health (acceptable weight, tolerable or manageable level of physical ailments, sensible/rational attitudes, realistic/practical actions) or just the opposite? Now I’m not going to try and convince you that every person who has been a victim of physical or mental abuse or who has contracted an illness of some sort is merely suffering because they neglect nurturing their spiritual life. I know many devout spiritual beings who suffer diseases. Nor am I making light of either. I merely want to point out that feeding and nurturing your spirit is one way to get your physical and emotional well-being on the mend. When the spirit is healthy, many times the body follows. So how do we get from starving to nurturing our spirit? Often a simple shift in perception from “woes me” to gratitude can start you on your way to spiritual health. Forgiveness also plays a huge part in this. “I’ve forgiven but I can’t forget” is a cop out. I know that sounds harsh but Scripture tells us to speak the truth in love and sometimes love has to be gentle but firm and sometimes the truth hurts; hence the term ‘tough love’. The Bible tells us that God remembers not our sins, yet we tend to wallow in those perpetrated against us and/or cling to guilt and self-condemnation for those we committed against others. If God, who is holy and just forgets our sins, who are we, to hold onto those memories and rehash our pain and anger, or disappointment and self pity? Here’s the rub: As long as you feel and act the victim, you can not live a victorious life! To put it another way: You can’t have a positive, healthy life (spiritual or otherwise) if you have a negative outlook. Oh and if you think you are “only being realistic,” think again. You are hurting no one but YOURSELF when you drag the past into the present and project it into your future. “But it hurts so much…the pain is so deep….” Then STOP focusing on it! Focus on today and the good present in your life right now. Now that I’ve given you something to ponder, here are some ideas and resources….
These are just a few examples but I promise, as you get started feeding your spirit, you’ll see and feel a difference in your overall condition and discover more ways to enforce the new, happier, healthier you.
