Four Ways to Be More Present

Being present with an experience emotionally, mentally, physically, sexually, and spiritually means you are grounded in the experience. If you do not accept part of your life experience, you unground your consciousness in that moment of life. Following are four ways you can become more present increasing your wellbeing and success in every way! 

         1. SPIRIT - Intuition: Have you ignored your gut feelings or doubted yourself? The intuitive nudges that you receive are to help you be more present with your life purpose. As subtle as they are, give your attention and follow their guidance. See how it helps you to feel more centered.

          2. MIND - Acceptance: Acceptance allows you to fully be in your body and to truly feel everything. It allows your focus to be present and grounded. Acceptance is being honest and authentic with your total life experience. You aren't going to always agree entirely with everyone you meet. It is okay if your friends don’t share the same views as you. You can accept someone and disagree with them at the same time. Unconditional acceptance equals unconditional love. When you face and embrace all aspects of yourself, you are able to love and accept yourself. When you are grounded, your intuition is more easily accessed, and you are able to make wiser life choices.

          3. EMOTION - Emotional Authenticity: Were you taught to hold in your emotions? You might push down emotions like anger, fear, sadness, and jealousy, and bottle them up inside, not allowing yourself to feel these emotions that you or those around you may judge as “bad.” This is also true with physical and mental issues you don’t want to deal with. You may suppress these issues and the emotions surrounding them, and block yourself from what you are experiencing in the present moment of life, thereby ungrounding yourself. Learn to accept, embrace and express your emotions. Let them out. Then you will be more grounded everyday of your life!

            4. BODY - Physical Balance: Anything that alters your physical chemistry such as alcohol, chemicals, radiation, drugs, caffeine and sugar can unground you. Even fluorescent lighting and computers can be ungrounding. Being grounded is a choice. You can find the reason you are ungrounded, understand it, and transform it. Start by noticing the things that unground you and make an effort to stay grounded. Get out into nature, exercise and eat a balanced diet. These three action steps are essential to being in a grounded state of well-being.

      Each choice you make brings you more into the present or takes you further out of it. Be aware of when you are      centered versus un-centered, concentrated versus scattered, attentive versus day dreamy and present versus distant. Use deep breathing to imagine yourself sinking into your heavy feet. Play with this meditation several times a day for a few minutes each time. See how present you can truly be for the beauty of life!

10 ways to make your life better right now

1) Start living in the present moment: You have nothing to gain by going back into your past.There is nothing that you can change there, however you have the power to change right now.

2) Forgive: If you are holding on to grudges you have given away your power, unforgiveness is  one of the biggest ways that you can hinder the flow if unlimited abundance in all areas of your life.

3) Love Yourself: Not when you lose 20 pounds or when you look like her/him. Love yourself now, just the way you are, for you are wonderfully and perfectly made.How can you attract love if you don't love you?

4)Give: Even if you don't have money to give, give of your time and talent. There is no better way to feel good  about yourself than to help someone in need.

5) Smile: There is nothing better than making someone happy, when you walk into a room, smile and say hello.

6) Take time out for yourself: It doesn't matter if you are a parent, own/ run a business or a student. We all have busy lives. Take time to do something for yourself. Take a yoga class, read a book, go have a cup of coffee with a friend. Make a commitment to yourself that once a week, you will do something for you.

7) Affirm Life: Everyday you should affirm the life that you desire. Remember thoughts are things and words have power.

8) Connect with the Divine: Take the time to sit in and enjoy the silence. Connect with the Divine spirit of God within you.

9) Make a List: There are days when you just cannot do it all, make a list of the things that you are going do and then make a list for your heavenly staff. It is amazing how many things will get done once you entrust them to your angels.

10) Be Grateful: When you open your eyes, give thanks.All day whenever you think about it, give thanks. Before you go to bed give thanks. In doing so you open the door for all the things your desire to enter.

How to work with Full Moon Energy

I  live for those moments when the beauty of the world takes my breath away - moments like seeing a big yellow moon rising over lavender grey water at sunset. The full moon is the high point of the lunar cycle, equivalent to that little moment after we take a deep breath, before we exhale... now is the time to stop mindfully, and look around you to see what is coming to maturity in your life. Are there some creative successes for which you need to acknowledge yourself? Are there any bad habits that have crept up on you & taken hold? What is ripening? What is gaining momentum? What has become of that intention you set at the New Moon? Some things may need some nurturing to grow further. Some things may need to be weeded out so those good things can grow! Full moon energy lasts for three days - maybe take some time during these three days to sit down with your journal (at twilight?) and ask yourself that question "what is coming to fruition in my life?" Include the good and the not so good. What are your next steps? The energy of completion (fullness) is followed immediately by the energy of decrease (waning - a cosmic exhale) - so use the next two weeks for shedding what doesn't work. Clean closets, break habits, start a diet, be less busy, undo tangles of all kinds. Look honestly at what needs to go - and you'll be ready for the freshness of the next New Moon!

Last but not least, anytime during the three days of the full moon is a great time to meet with friends, celebrate, share, and set intentions. What could be lovelier than a circle of women and friends meeting under the full moon?


Happy Full Moon... Make it work for you!

Prayers in Storage

Today as I was in my quiet time, I was given a message that I was told to share. You know how we always pray and affirm things for other people" I want him to love me more, I want him to have a better job, I want her to look better" on and on. We pray and affirm for the ones we love and sometimes the ones we don't. But what we fail to realize is that we all have free will to do whatever we want. So every time we pray, God and the angels symbolically put those request in storage, until that person we are praying for says" OK I am ready to change." Then God says, "OK you know that box of prayers, affirmations and such that we have in storage for _______, get those it is time they are ready."So no matter how you pray and affirm for someone, they have to want it for themselves.We can however change ourselves

Be Blessed!

You can always start over

Today as I was cleaning out my flower garden my angel began to speak to me.She said, do you know that the life you live is the very words you speak it is the very thoughts you think? Of course I do.. She contiued, "do you know how many people know that but still say and think things that they don't want? No matter how bad it may look in the physical realm there is a heavenly realm that is fast at work to bring about the desires of your heart, however if the desires of you heart are not the same as the way you speak, feel and think then there is a problem. It is so easy to stay where you have always been because it is comfortable. It takes time to change a negative pattern, but the minute you began to do that is the minute your life becomes what you desire. Tell them to find a reason to smile today, find joy in something anything and give thanks for the little things like hands, ears, sight and watch as heavens gate open and began to obey the commands of their spirits. Ok ?" I said I will deliver the message, she said " One more thing even if they fall off, it is ok to start over".


Thank you Katie for this wonderful message. I encourage all of you to step back into what you know works align your words with your thoughts.

New Moon Abundance Checks

New Moon Abundance Checks


New Moon Abundance Checks are a simple way to increase your chances for an abundant life. Abundance is not necessarily the same as excess beyond one's needs. Writing Abundance Checks is the practice of intention or manifesting positive events in your life. The act of writing the check is an indication to the universe that you are prepared to receive gifts from a variety of sources. The basic setup is to write a check to the universe with the intent that you be compensated for your existence and actions.

While there are a variety of ways to write the abundance checks, we have found that the following format seems to work great since it does not put any particular expectation upon the blessings that we will receive. In fact, we don't even have to believe that anything will arrive as a result of the action. Special checks are not necessary for the Abundance Checks. Some people use plain paper and create their own checks. Others use checks from their own checking account. The following checks were created for the New Moons in each zodiac sign for you to use.

A) Within 24 hours before or after the New Moon, prepare a check for the particular zodiac sign.

B) On the "Name" and "Pay to" lines, write your own name.

C) Leave the "Date" line blank.

D) For the "Dollar" amounts, write "Paid in Full."

E) On the "Signature" line, write "The Law of Abundance."

F) Put the check in a safe place and forget about it.

G) Note the Example below.
Date; None
Name: Your Name
Pay To : Your Name again
Dollars: Paid In Full
$: Paid In Full
Signature: The Law Of Abundance

Be willing to consider non-monetary rewards as gifts from the universe, and you will begin to see where abundance abounds in your life.

Enjoy!

The energy from your home

I receive alot of emails about removing dead and negative energy from your home. The energy in you home can affect fiances, love, health and business.So here are a few tips for you to change that energy


Clean you’re Windows. Windows are the eyes of your home; dirty windows cloud vision but clean windows represent a clear view of the opportunities.

Open your windows: When you are saging  or using any products to remove negative energy you must open your windows and door.That energy needs some place to go. Also opening the window shows respect for your home.


Remove Dead Plants. Dead plants symbolize dead energy; replace them with healthy living plants to grow wealth in your life. As your plants grow so should your fiances.
Replace Your Desk Chair. If you sit on a broken, stained, or torn desk chair it represents disregard for your work; get a new chair and improve your career outlook.


Salt carpets. This is the simple easiest best way. Simply sprinkle dry table salt on the carpet, wait an hour and then vacuum the up the salt. Use approximately 3 to 6 spoonfuls of salt for a medium size room. Salt crystals have an amazing natural built in-ability to erase the programming of energy. Using salt is like using an eraser on a chalk board. The information on the board is wiped away..


 Remove clutter. Things like old magazines and dirty clothes can trap a lot of negative energy in your house. Remove old items you no longer need. Keep coffee tables picked up and clean. Put your laundry in a laundry hamper. Wash your dirty dishes and put them away. Negative energy needs objects to hang on to so it can remain around..


Loud noises. This is the reason the Chinese love fireworks. Loud noises break up energy patterns and allow them to disperse. Mother Nature does the same thing with the noise of thunder storms..


Play spiritual music. A good song is  "God is Real" from Krishna Das on his "Door of Faith" album. Buddhist monks use tingshaws to dissipate unfavorable energy. You can use your stereo with the same effect. Combine this technique with no. 4 and a great pair of speakers for a really deep cleaning..


Rearrange the furniture. The Chinese practice the art of Feng shui. Again negative energy needs something to "cling to." Arrange your space with as much wide open space as possible, allowing any negative energy to disperse. But also the act of rearranging will cause this harmful energy to dissipate..



These are just a few things you can start with to get some new energy flowing into your home and life.I and many others offer house blessing products that can be used to shift the energy.

Love and Light,
Fran
