Talking it Out: Affirmative Conversations

AffirmingSpirit — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 03:00:33 +0000

When we speak in conversations with others, we are changing the energy around us (literally). Now we know from work done by the Institute of HeartMath that the thoughts combined with emotions are transmitted through our heart into the quantum field. Whatever we send out is mirrored back to us vibrationally. Ask yourself if what you generally speak about with others is affirming what you want to experience or affirming what you do NOT want (complaining)?

Yes, There ARE Companies Doing Great Things!

AffirmingSpirit — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 04:38:49 +0000

The media is overwhelmed with people complaining about companies doing things they don't like and exhibiting behaviors of which they do not approve. The time for complaining is OVER.

The brilliant thinker Buckminster Fuller once said: “You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.”

I truly could not agree more! It doesn't matter how *right* you are about what you complain about. Deliberate Creators know that what we focus on EXPANDS, so focusing on things you don't like is really a waste of your energy.

Let's get started building a new model.

Let's begin by focusing... [This is an excerpt. Click the link to read the full post.]

An Inspirational Helping of BOOYAH! SPIRIT

AffirmingSpirit — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 02:37:41 +0000

This holiday season, consider giving a gift that will uplift and inspire all year long. Sheila M. Burke's new book, BOOYAH! SPIRIT: 52 Ingredients For a Healthy Soul. Suffering Is Optional. (2011, Om Sweet Om Publishing) is a perfect example of an ideal inspirational holiday gift. First, I want to address the title because when I think of BOOYAH! I think of that over-the-top stock market guy on cable. I was delighted to read in Sheila's book that... Booyah is a food that is prepared like a stew, but on a very large scale. It takes many cooks to prepare the food, and it is usually meant to served hundreds or even thousands of people. [This is an excerpt. Click the link above to access the full post...]

Our Stories Create Our Beliefs Which Drive Our Actions

AffirmingSpirit — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 09:09:10 +0000

You probably have noticed that I have written a lot about how our stories affect us. Last night, I was watching Oprah's LIfe Class (episode 3, with Cheryl Richardson) where she talks about how we don't get what we want, we get what we believe. Our beliefs are formed by the stories we tell ourselves based on what we have perceived through our lifetime.

Most of the stories we carry with us as adults were developed between birth and 6 years old. When experience meets emotions...

Releasing Your Victim Status

AffirmingSpirit — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 06:32:58 +0000

How often do you feel like a victim? How often do you feel like things happen TO you, instead of FOR you? Some of you reading this will probably say, never, and those people might want to look a little deeper. Recently, I became aware that I was raised to feel like a victim. In no way do I blame my family. I doubt they set out to *make* me feel that way, let alone to feel that way themselves, but it still is the truth: I was raised with a victim mentality. I know I was raise d to feel this way be cause my family's favorite pastime is complaining! Not only did the adults around me model how to complain, we were actively encouraged to look for things to complain about and rewarded with extra attention when we did. In family gatherings, not only could you get lots of attention for complaining, most times the rest of the group would join in and add their complaints to the mix! But it didn't stop there. Complaining wasn't even JUST the favorite pastime in my family, but in the culture around me, where it's still active everywhere in our media and news sources!

Relaxing Into Summer

AffirmingSpirit — Sat, 10 Sep 2011 11:45:33 +0000

This is my first post in 2 months. Not because I don't like to post, but because I decided to wait for inspiration and ended up relaxing into summer. How often do you let yourself reeeaaally relax? Even though I was relaxing, I was also actively doing what inspired me. I practiced deep breathing and Quantum Entrainment several times a day, whenever inspired. I got out in nature. I took walks and said my favorite affirmations. I read books...[This is an EXCERPT - click the link to read the full post and download the extras]

Power Animals

AffirmingSpirit — Sat, 09 Jul 2011 18:48:34 +0000

Have you ever contemplated the power that animals bring to your life experience? As I type this post, I'm sitting next to an open window with the sounds of hundreds of birds chirping. No, I don't live in the country but in a rather large suburb, an area known as Birdland. Groves of mature trees attract birds to nest...from hummingbirds in my backyard to ravens and even some hawks and wild parrots! Go to the post to read more...

Connecting with Who You Really Are: The Power of Quantum Entrainment

AffirmingSpirit — Sat, 28 May 2011 22:24:18 +0000

By now, I hope you have noticed that anything I recommend to you I have first tried and experimented with myself. In this blog, I share not only what I have learned, but what has worked for me, with the intention that you will also try what resonates for you and experience positive outcomes. This past February, Trish Spadt told me about a process she was enjoying called Quantum Entrainment. With excitement, she talked about how it has changed how she perceives the world and positively shifted many things in her life. I had met Trish virtually last Fall when she had inquired about selling my meditation program on her website. So, I called Trish (it turned out it was also her birthday) and we had a joyful conversation about metaphysics, her journey understanding how we heal ourselves, and about Quantum Physics. So, when she brought up Quantum Entrainment in our next conversation in February, I decided to check it out!
