Joy Rising!

In Marianne Williamson's new book, The Law of Divine Compensation, she tells us that, "Nothing binds you except your thoughts; nothing limits you except your fears; and nothing controls you except your beliefs." And the good news is that it's within our power to change it all in order to usher in the life we so strongly desire. Remember, a belief is a thought you just keep thinking. It has no other hold on you. Think differently today. Tell yourself a better story about your life. Include moments in your day to play, imagine and banish thoughts that make you feel bad, in order that your life may serve you in a magnificent new way.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!

I am a big believer in gratitude and appreciation. It shifts your consciousness from that of victim to that of creator. When you're feeling stuck, appreciate everything in your environment, right now, right where you are. As Maria Forleo tells us, "Gratitude changes the lens through which you see everything." Your world will change in the instant you focus on what have - not what you had or what you want, but the glorious things you have. It will elevate your life instantly and send endless ripples of good into your future. Appreciate right where you are. As Joseph Campbell said, "The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are." Revel in all your good today. Make lists. Count your blessings and your blessings will expand - Tis the season for Thanksgiving!

Awakening to Your Good!

I had a teacher who used to say, "If you feel separate from God then who moved?" We are spiritual beings living a physical experience, we are never apart from that which we are. We are never alone or without everything we need to feel absolute joy and fulfillment in every moment. Martha Beck, a great life coach and self-proclaimed "way shower," tells us that, "if we are are encountering a morning of small annoyances to a year of crises, please realize that part of your awareness is asleep." It's easier than you think to wake up and give your higher self the reigns. Take a moment, be still and ask to connect. You'll feel a shift instantly. Expand on that as you are directed and and your life will blossom in unexpected and delightful ways.
