I won’t

Posted on:

“I don’t mind being lost, but hopelessness bothers me.” I can find my way back.  I can discover a better path.  But when I give up hope, I lose it all. I won’t give up hope; regardless of what shows up, regardless of how desperate the situation appears.  I will persist.  I will thrive.  And so will you.

The Embracing Your Light Phase

Posted on:

Following up from the dispelling the darkness phase spirituality blog post, we naturally must talk about embracing of the light. In fact–as I mentioned before–they're not really separate. They are whirling together at all times post spiritual awakening. They are very much intertwined with the phases of expansion and contraction that are inherent in the rebirthing process, and there's a lot of overlap in these ideas with the way I write about "The Process of Healing Pain from Your Energy Body." It's all just made-up words anyway, and there's no need to hang onto words or ideas for any longer than necessary.The more you step into your inner radiant light, the…

The enemy within

Posted on:

Sometimes we face an enemy within ourselves that has the goal of keeping us from succeeding in life in all aspects including spiritual growth. The enemy is our own lack of self-confidence and  self-esteem. It is like having someone constantly whispering in our ear words of discouragement and negativity. I think we all face such an enemy every day within ourselves, just some of us have learned to ignore it or rise above its tactics. Even though we are individuals and have both self-realization and freewill we are also a biological computer of sorts. We…

Today, decide

“To be human means we are not driven, but we make decisions.” – Viktor Frankl People of accomplishment refuse to sit back and just let things happen to them.  They recognize their inner power,  they confront their lives in the midst of circumstance, and they act to change circumstance.  They refuse to subject themselves to any notion of becoming a victim. Every day, you decide.  You decide if you will run your day, or let your day run you.  Today, decide; decide thoughtfully. The post Today, decide appeared first on Healthy Mind Heart

Motivation and Your Emotional Vocabulary

Posted on:

I have often said that the mind works in pictures, and that is true.  So how can words radically alter our feelings if our mind files everything in pictures? It’s true that we can picture something in our minds without having words to describe it.  But once you have a picture in your mind that you want to communicate to someone, what’s the first thing you do?  The first thing you do is try to find words to describe that picture, right?

Harness the Power of Your Emotional Vocabulary

We all recognize that we get results by taking action – no action means no results because one depends on the other. We are also aware that there are a variety of motivators that can prompt us to take action. One of the challenges in personal development is learning to control those motivators so that we can intentionally move ourselves to take action and produce results at will. Emotions are the most powerful of all the…

The Shadow and Dispelling the Darkness Phase

Posted on:

I've been toying with a new way to discuss spiritual awakening and the arising of consciousness that emerges from that deep connection. Once again, I always like to remind people that I am using the term "awakening" in a very specific way. I don't use it as a verb that means to gradually become more aware. I refer to that as the path of consciousness. On the path of consciousness, we can become more aware. We can improve. We can see more. It is an important path of self growth, and one that also naturally arises from the awakened state when we no longer resist who and what we are.So while awakening includes this, the individual who awakens feels …
