Will Smith is shares how he thinks and creates prosperity and success in his life.  I am in the process like all of you and want you to be able to move ahead with your life instead of getting stuck in the quagmire of legal issues.  Deal with whatever is at hand one at a time and give the matter you focus and full attention.  Sit quietly before you attend to a matter, quietly with your eyes closed and bring your attention to the space between your eyes or third eye chakra where you will tap into your Higher Consciousness.  The answers will come to you within as you allow negativity and fear to dissipate in the presence of your Higher Power.  Repeat the names of God that are meaningful to you, or a Mantra that holds power in it for you, and trust that your answers will come to you.
Linda H. Aiken has published and researched on correlation between higher mortality rates related to low nurse to patient ratios.  Nurses like Theresa Brown are sharing their opinions and experiences on line to promote more transparency about the conditions that nurses face in the work place.  She Nurses are on the front line.  The good news is that hospitals will be required to post their staffing levels and patient census in real time on line for the public to view.  When things go public they tend to stop!

Trust in your ability to get through the process and be happy.

In the West we have great value for justice and people's right to work and yet I see a trend with nurses who go through the investigation and disciplinary system with the Board of Nursing unable to get these rights met. People often prejudge nurses who are put under investigation resulting in being marginalized in their personal as well as professional lives.  Rep. Lynn Jenkins (R-KS) has recently posted information regarding how the system works for most people who are ten times more likely to be tried by an agency than a court.  The rules are different as information is withheld from the person who is accused.  Many nurses are unable to pay the fees for legal representation or are unaware that they can and surrender their licenses.  The fear factor plays an enormous part and if they are unused to being approached in a manner which is forceful from my own experience they succumb to their fear.
I have a more positive vision for how this process can be done if nurses will stand up for themselves and their right to protect their license and ability to work.  Rep. Tony Shipley (R-TN) has recognized that there is a need to protect licenses and he passed a law to have the SBRN report to a committee within 74 hours of any suspension or revocation.  This means that the agency has then to explain and provide grounds for this level of intervention.  I will be interested to see if there are changes in the number of licenses that are suspended or revoked since this law was passed.  He also introduced a law which has the SBRN report any fines over $1,000.  For most people this is a lot of money especially during a time of crisis and not being able to earn income.  Most of the state board of nursing websites do not report fines but ones which I have visited have fines ranging from a few hundred dollars to ten thousand!
I advise any nurse to contact his/her MP or State Representative to disclose the charges and how you were approached.  All details are important for politicians to learn how the process is handled and the impact it has had on the individual nurse.  Many I think are in fear and are shamed by being on a list that is mailed out to all license holders statewide.  For most people this type of public humiliation is overwhelming and degrading.  I encourage nurses to come out of the corner and be strong and confident in his/her ability to go through the process and stand tall.  Florence Nightingale shone a light and I want you to keep shining yours. Florence Nightingale is considered the Mother of Nursing and in fact did not want licensing bodies.  Perhaps seeing a powerful establishment that is removed from the realities of nursing practice which would not have been the case if those responsible who were closer to the nurse and environment in which he/she worked were decision makers.  The trend for revocations has increased over the past five years and with the present care setting it is unlikely to reverse.
Some practical and supportive advice for nurses undergoing state board discipline:
1. I always have to make it clear that I have great faith in One Creator and to turn to the One you know and call Him by name to assist and guide you through the process.  Sometimes it is during times of stress and personal challenge that we become clearer about our relationship with God and rely totally on Him to help us through a crisis.  This is your time to learn that and accept who you are and trust in your ability to draw upon this inner strength and power.  Don't let go and give up but know each day you will go a little further and deeper because the Power that you are drawing from is far greater than any human factor.
2. On the metaphysical level see the situation as being of equal size or smaller than yourself and breath deeply to abate any fear.  Learn to enjoy life with this hanging over your head because you will learn to trust your ability to move forward.
3.  Fear is about as negative an experience as we can experience and it doesn't serve us at all.  We are far removed from the evolution of man when the fight or flight mode of response reacted as quickly as our knee jerk response does today.  We have a higher brain and if we retrain our thoughts to pause and train our mind to think positive thoughts we shall be less likely to continue to feel fear.  Write down what you think and if that is true.  Ask yourself what your Higher Power's teachings are for the content of your thinking and what he/she would do in the same situation.  Pray and write down what comes up from your inner intuition about the situation and rest assured that you are being guided.
4.  I highly recommend that nurses connect by way of www.meetup.com  Mother Teresa said that it is better to connect person to person than to wait for leaders.  Studies have shown that supporting others improves well being through increasing certain hormones.  Once you befriend someone you can share the experience being mindful to make sure that you don't disclose details that should be kept between yourself and your lawyer.  Perhaps small groups will be able to help stabilize any nurses who are more vulnerable because of the investigation period being prolonged for instance.  It will be interesting to hear from nurses and share stories about how lives are changed and uplifted because of this experience.  Transcendence is always possible despite how tragic and stressful the situation is.
5.  Make sure that you do the very practical things that will help you survive the process.  Legal advice and representation is a must and researching for a lawyer who is specialized in license law is essential.  Keep a notebook with you to got down any information where ever you are is helpful to your case.
6.  Rest and relaxation are important.  I recommend that you meditate daily.  There are instructions on the website that I follow that I find works very well www.TonySamara.org  Attend Church or any other type of spiritual meetings you are draw to.  Take up yoga which helps to relax the body and gain an inner equilibrium.  Walk in nature and enjoy time in solitude.  Perhaps you have been used to being around people everyday and now find that you are alone.  Turn the experience into a positive on by viewing it as a time for self contemplation and journaling.  Keep a daily journal and note thoughts and feelings that arise.  When a negative thought arises jot it down and the feeling that you experienced.  You will then become aware of how negative thoughts bring you down and start to have positive thoughts.  It's a choice we have and we can either be unhappy and feel bad or work on ourselves until we get it right.
7.  Sleep is necessary and I recommend that you don't turn to pills to make you sleep but rather set up a routine such as bathing before bed and drinking hot milk which has a natural sedative.  Daily exercise should help make the body tired and ready for rest also.  You can meditate as you are going to sleep and that helps focus the mind and let it calm down.  Repeat the name of God inside and focus your attention between the eyes.  You will find the instructions on the above website.
8.  Don't worry, be happy should become your motto.  Repeat it as you walk around.  Feel and believe that you don't have to worry and feel the difference when you choose to be happy!
My thoughts are with each and everyone of you are you learn to adjust and stand up for your right to defend your license and work.

Veterans Day!

So many deep emotions of gratitude and love for country and those who serve our country and protect our freedom.  For those who can provide resources with time and money please consider supporting homeless veterans who are served by soup kitchens and shelters in your town or city.  They are dignified warriors who have not coped well with life since returning from the battle front.  Another worthy cause is Honor Flight.  Search on the web and find one near you!  Their mission is to fly veterans to DC to visit the war memorials.  As there are 1,200 WWII Veterans dying every day and time is obviously of the utmost importance.  It is a worthy cause and I encourage you to open your heart to the men and women who served our country.

A cold November day in Kansas City and looks like winter is setting in for sure.  Don't think I mind though because each season brings a special gift of finding joy in the self.  A time for staying home and reading and writing which I love to do.  A time to spend more time on the computer to get the message out to others about worthy causes that you can support.  Now it's your turn and I want you to think of all the things that you want to do this winter while the air is still and quiet outside with snow blanketing the landscape.  Remember those times sitting in front of the fireplace with family and friends?  We used to have a "cuppa tea" and everything was suddenly roses!  My feet would be cold from playing skating on Dyke's creek.  Didn't have skates but my uncle brought me a pair of ankle high boots and a woolen coat one Christmas at the Army and Navy store in London.  My mother would take my sister and I up to London by train for the January sale and buy us clothes that my uncle paid for as our Christmas present.  Even if you don't have anything new to do (or don't think you do!) take a trip down memory lane.  Have a tape recorder next to the chair that you sit in an record stories from the past so that the next generation will know what life was like for you way back when!

New Year is just around the corner and I want you to prepare in a mindful way about what you want to change or improve upon in 2011.  Start the process of goal setting for the next year and use meditation and introspection as your tools to draw you in to your soul and learn about your true purpose in life.  Let God lead you and show you the way.  Be open to forming a personal connection to your Higher Power.  Think of that person as your constant guide and companion.  Always in heart and mind and longing to continue to merge with the one who leads you to God.  Your own heart will be your altar on which you can stand in your shining radiance, without fear of judgment or criticism.   Your heart will be made light and pure and you will want to spend more and more time alone in your heart with God.  I had the experience of seeing the light inside the soft caves of my own heart.  Radiant bright white light, with soft molded walls and a small green Chinese figure holding out his arms.  Smiling and radiating love and joy in giving and fulfilling my needs.  Cherish your heart.  Protect your experiences.  I share so that you will know what the journey is like and about ultimately.  Your union with God.

So on this Veterans Day we all share in our gratitude for those who were willing to die and for those who did die defending our liberty and freedom.  Life is precious and a delicate thing that any one of us can have taken before we feel prepared.  Know that you have time and opportunity to know God, become a loving and serving person for humanity, nature and all of God's creatures.  Be mindful of your diet.

I am a Professional Life Coach and require people whom I work with to meditate daily and follow a vegetarian diet.  That is a discipline and without it you are not going to achieve the ultimate goal of liberation.  Please contact me at lawrencerita511@gmail.com

Being pulled back by the past.

Most of us have the feeling of being pulled back by the past.  It may be memories that are sweet and full of the magic that made an aspect of our lives more vivid.  Such as attending a beautiful ceremony, listening to an opera with a great tenor or something that captivated our soul.  Most of us however, are drawn back into the past because we feel the longing to complete an aspect of our lives such as a broken relationship.  Unresolved conflicts with loved ones who were cruel to us that we hang onto because that pain has found a perfect home within us and it's easier to keep a feeling that is familiar than learn how to clear the negativity from our consciousness.  They don't have to exist because quite simply they don't exist any longer.  It is your minds propensity to drag you down that never ending spiral of negative emotions when we start to recall the past.

It is not a blocking, denying or suppressing that I am talking about.  It is an inner clearing and recognizing when negative emotions grab our inner soul and turn our inner experience into one of pain and anxiety.  When you go back into a bad memory all of the emotions associated with the occurrence are rekindled and the more you allow your mind to take you back the faster the experience will recreate and the more intense the feelings.  The reverse also true.  Once you are able to clear inner negative junk that has accumulated from past experiences through meditation and other spiritual practices such as prayer and mantra repetition called jappa you will be able to monitor your inner state and immediately recognize and respond when negative thoughts occur or a negative feeling attaches itself to your inner state. 

Set aside at least half an hour daily to meditate.  Choose an area that will be undisturbed and keep it clean and prepared for meditation.  As you sit there and meditate regularly the energy or power that you tap into in meditation will accumulate thus making it easier to go into meditation.  Please see my Youtube.com meditation tape for instructions.  Your mind will come up with all kinds of reasons why not to meditate and when you sit to meditate it will chatter and your body may ache.  Let it all take its course as it will eventually go away as your heart becomes lighter and full of love.  The heart rules the mind and you are in control of your mind and emotions.  It takes a disciplined practice to walk the spiritual path but your choice is to stay at the level of pain due to spiritual contraction or to follow the teachings of liberated Master's who can show you the way.  When I taught adolescents in a detention center how to meditate I used the analogy of what it's like to keep walking into a brick wall and then realizing that life can be approached differently.  It's up to you when the time is right you will want to change.

Things that you can do to focus your mind on positive things when you wake up is to keep a picture of your higher power by your bed so that you connect visually with that Being before you have time to think of anything negative.  Repeat the name of your higher power or mantras that you have been given by a Master.  Breath deeply and easily and thank God for the new day.  Gratitude is an uplifting spiritual practice.  One practice that I have done and found beneficial is to picture my Master's feet above me in the shower.  In the East the feet of the Guru are conduits for God's power or Shakti to pour out to the devotee.  That is why Indian's touch the feet of the master and some worship the sandals or padukas that represent the Guru's feet.  Know that you are being cleansed of all past actions as the power of the Master's feet flow down to you and all negativity's are washed away in the water from your body.  Grow in silence.  Learn to be quiet with God.  That means not having the television or radio on even as background noise.  The more you are silent and the less your senses are pulled outward the more you will connect with your heart.

If you have a particular issue with someone that is causing you inner distress try to go inside and ask yourself to identify what it is that needs to be resolved.  Journal after meditation and what that you experience in meditation will come up if you need to work on particular issues.  Try to resolve problems with relatives and friends and if they are not open to discussing the issue then you will have to pray and release them from your life.  You cannot win every person or battle in the way you would like to end things.  People can have control over many aspects of your life.  They can steal your money for instance or try to do you out of an inheritance as has happened in my family but they cannot change how I respond with detachment and love.  This Power that we possess likes to be in harmony and if people cause disharmony it won't be something that we can live with.  Especially as we are developing on the spiritual path it is good to stay in good company with others who are also on the spiritual path.  For enlightened Master's they can handle the bad karma and energy of people.  Learn to be protective of your own Power.

Your diet is a key component for your spiritual development.  Choose foods that are full of life and have the energy giving force in them still.  I have often seen people eat vegetables that look wilted.  How can that possibly charge your cells?  Become mindful about all that you expose your body to.  That means buying clothes and products that have not been produced by way of harming animals.  In the health food stores there are many organic products that are non-animal tested.  Be aware of the harm caused through dies.  I am a nurse and a patient told me that his great toe and bone became infected due to wearing socks with a dye that got under his toe nail.  If you can wear organic cotton socks with natural dyes.  Gradually your consciousness will want to choose these things for now be mindful and decide what you can give up.  If you can eat only vegetarian foods.  If you buy animal produce Wal-Mart buys from farmers who allow the animals free range.  Buy locally if possible from farmers markets and select the heirloom fruits and vegetables.  The usual store varieties and genetically modified and there are questions about the risks to our health.

Be gentle with yourself.  Learn to structure your day and keep to routines.  Cook for yourself instead of eating out and enjoy the simple foods.  Rest and keep to a regular sleep pattern that will support you spiritually as you meditate and connect with your heart and higher cortex of the brain.  You have been used to responding to emotions that can be brought under control.  Keep to the practices and you will reap the fruits of your efforts because you will have the Grace of your higher power to support you.

Moving with the Power within.

One of the most enjoyable scenes from the Bible is that of King David as he danced his way into Jerusalem (I hope that's the correct city.)  Anyway David had a penchant for getting into the groove with God.  He understood God and he could resonate with God's vibrational frequency.  There is a type of Meditation called Sound and Light Meditation and it's just what it says - it connects you with the sound and light vibrations within once you are initiated by the Master.  Through the Grace and guidance of a Master your own frequency of light and sound becomes attuned to that of God.  With liberation you remain emersed at the same vibrational frequency level of God all of the time.

The more pure your own frequency becomes, the more divine sounds you will hear.  David was experiencing these divine sounds as his feet danced and his robes flapped and twirled  about his body. God has the kind of power that fills our body and soul with so much joy and energy that it's only expression comes through the dance like David did on that day.  He must have been a good looking guy with his long golden hair perhaps and sweat pouring off his brow.  He would have been muscular and agile reminding me of a Michael Angelo statue.  Servant women lined the path to cheer him on, perhaps giggling and gaping at the beauty of his movement and flashes of his loins.  Later when he got to his home or palace, his wife was waiting.  She was angered by his open display of his private parts to all the servant women in the city, and scolded him for his brazenness.  That scene ended their relationship because his wife didn't understand him.  His dance was about his love for God, and the power that flowed through him was so powerful that it moved his body and soul.  He was totally in the present and it was totally about his togetherness or oneness with God.

I like total abandonment to God and it's up to others if they wish to judge - farewell my friend!  I would rather be called mad for God.  Yet you must be sincere with your love for God.  If not, who do you think you're fooling?  Don't you think that God could sense David's fervor?  I hope that we all move our bodies and feel the Power of God's Love and Majesty in every movement.  Taking care of our bodies and being agile and athletic as David was, is a worthy goal that God will support you in achieving.  We all have our karma to deal with in life.  Some of you may actually be burdened with some physical illness and I hope that you will still try to reach your potential.

Bill Clinton has a tape which I have posted on this site.  He shares how he is undoing the damage that he caused his body through vegetarian diet which allows the body to unclog the arteries.  I recommend vegetarian diets because I have found it to be a very clean way of keeping the intestines clean.  Also you don't absorb the antibiotics and steroids that they feed to live stock.  If you haven't already done so please watch "Food, Inc."  (posted on this site.)  We are supposed to be a civilized society and when I saw how factory farms operate and the cruelty that is done to the animals it breaks my heart.  The slaughterhouses are like something out of hell.  Is this what you are looking to energize your body that is a vessel for God?  My Teacher asks "Why do you want to make your body into a graveyard?"

I like business and have always thought that people should be able to earn as much money as they desire.  Business creates the potential for wealth and as long as you tithe and take care of your loved ones, money is a blessing.  Whenever you are stingy with money it shrinks your capacity for love and contracts your experience of the power of abundance.  Generosity is always the higher path and even if it's a little bit it's always a good thing to give.  If you run a business be aware of what is going on with your customers and don't just take from them.  If you live from the heart you will do this naturally.  Let's all strive for abundance and create opportunities in our lives where we can "go for it" as the saying goes.  Create an avenue for your business to serve your community.  For instance Office Max sponsors "Adopt a Classroom," so that children will get the school supplies they need.  Tommy Spaulding a famous Coach impacted they way people network.  His philosophy was always to serve those you were wanting to be your clients and take the relationship to a higher place through getting to know your client's lives thoroughly.  It takes effort and a desire to connect on a deeper level.  He called his networking "netgiving" because the focus was always on the client's needs and giving them what they needed and more by going the extra mile.  As the saying goes "Just do it!"  Your heart may not be as open to this idea as you would like but the more you step out into the realm of generosity, more will come back to you.  That is a natural law of the universe.  Make your intention clear about your desire, then release it.  If you hold onto the intention it will become the focus instead of the process that is about to unfold that will bring blessings to you.

Ask yourself what is your deep passion.  What do you need to "go for it?"  David didn't hold back and he didn't take a berating from his wife either.  It is important to know yourself through self-enquiry and journaling.  When you are confident about who you are you can be a pillar of strength for others who need you to help them grow.  If you are in business it is your responsibility to deliver all that you say you will and do it in a loving and courteous way.  If you are doing something that you don't like try to build a business up on the side and when it is more fully developed you can maybe switch.  Keep your enthusiasm high by preparing and always honoring whatever you are called or asked to do.  Like David don't let anyone rob you of your power.  Follow the advise of one of the world's greatest power brokers, Mahatma Gandhi, "I will never let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet."

The week is ahead of you now and it's important to write your goals out.  Write a long term goal for the month and split it up into measurable weekly or short term goals.  Stay focused on your projects and keep working day and night to get the job done.  Excellence is the key to getting referrals.  When people speak highly of your work they will be bound to tell others.  The process is character building for you and motivating when you get as Spaulding coined "Return on Relationships."  Who gets up thinking of doing something with a negative attitude and gets it done well?  No one I hope!  You need to be your own hockey or football coach.  Life is like a training camp but the game is for real.  Be sure that your self talk is positive and that you are spurring yourself to continue on.  Attitudes are contagious so make sure yours is worth catching.  Believe in yourself and put your trust in God or your Higher Power.  Remember to think of your God or Higher Power through out the day and speak to He/She as though she were with you in every moment.  Know that God wants you to succeed and that you will have many blessings to help you accomplish fame, fortune or whatever your ultimate goal.

Be enthusiastic and energized.

First put all your faith and trust in God.  I believe that your religion is what connects you to God and that spirituality is the lightening bolt that awakens that experience of God that is self empowering.  When I first became initiated I realized that I had a very profound experience.  I was feeling particularly despondent at that stage in my life.  As my teacher brushed me gently with peacock feathers and placed her foot on my knee I could feel every bit of negativity released.  I felt blissful and happy.  In fact I could feel and hear an inner release of laughter resonate throughout the universe.

My experiences have been profound and unmistakably due to the Grace of a Master who has led me from a life of pain to one of hope, enthusiasm and energy.  As soon as I focus inward I feel energized.  Sitting for Meditation is essential in order to clear away all the debris that we end up owning due to our experiences.  You will be released from all those burdens and obstacles and your enthusiasm for living will be boundless.  Energy comes through taking care of yourself on a regular and structured bases.  No hits and misses here. Keep to a strict schedule.  Be aware of how much time you need to allot to different tasks, personal care, self care and exercise.  Get to bed by 9 pm if you can and be up early to shower and start your day with meditation.  Keep a woolen shawl to wrap around you and a pair of cotton sweats to wear.  Sit in the same place where your meditations will build energy that will make it easier for you to go into meditation each time. 

I promote vegetarian diets and if you haven't already done so please see the movie "Food Inc."  It gives a graphic account of factory farming which is not in alignment with spiritual life.  With spiritual awakening you develop a respectful and appreciation for the sacredness in all God's creations.  Love is the essence of spiritual work and love is not unkind or cruel and does not put money before animals or people.  Learn from nature and if you don't already have a love for animals start by looking at movies about animals in the wild, photos and by taking walks in nature.  Learn to appreciate the delicate balance of nature as she sustains all of our survival.  If there is unkindness within you speak directly to God about it and do the inner work to clear that tendency.  Your real essence is Love and as you meditate and pray your real self will shine through.

List the things that you wish to accomplish for the upcoming week and with enthusiasm see yourself achieving your goals.  Our inner talk is normally negative until you gain control over the mind, and even then the mind can be intrusive.  Remember that the heart is in control of the mind and that the mind can become still.  Just by living in your heart you will feel free and energized.  Make sure that you exercise each day.  Yoga is good for everyone and will help you to develop inner qualities that have been specifically targeted when the pose was conceived.  For instance if you feel you lack courage try the warrior pose.  I like the mountain pose that grounds your energy with the earth and leaves me feeling steady and firm.  Yoga uses many poses taken from direct experiences of watching nature and animals.  I read this week that Leonardo DiVinci invented the parachute after watching leaves fall from trees.

I have spoken about core beliefs before which all of us have to face in order to overcome our lack of self awareness. These core beliefs are usually false beliefs before you start the trans formative work of self enquiry and go deeper into meditation.  So your conversations with your self will reflect your attachment to your core beliefs.  Hence you might believe you are stupid and when you don't do something the way you wanted and thus attribute the outcome to your own stupidity.  Just like a gardener whose mission is to keep the weeds out of the flower bed you will have to uproot negative core beliefs and subsequent negative self talk.  You are a great being and nothing can destroy your experience of knowing your true self.  It takes time and effort and I recommend that you find a Master who can initiate you on the spiritual path.  Join a Church or group to support your development.  Whatever your religion you will find greater understanding and enthusiasm for the teachings and scriptures.  Read spiritual writings by the Great Saints and pray that your life will be directed by God's hands.  Put total trust in God and surrender your life to the LORD.

Have enthusiasm for doing your very best through preparing when you have responsibilities to meet.  For instance if you have a paper to write spend the necessary time doing the research and meditate first to still the mind which will help you keep focused.  Keep your home or room tidy and clean and the energy there will be cleared.  If there are things cluttering your space get rid of them if you are not using items.  The rule of thumb in feng shui is to discard things that are not useful or that you don't particularly like at least every six months.  Things have their own energy and it can affect how you feel.  My teacher used to go into peoples rooms and said that the state of their rooms reflected the state of their own inner being.  That means that if you are cluttered and disorganized on the outside you are cluttered and disorganized on the inside.

Always keep good company and remember that attitudes are contagious.  If you lack enthusiasm for your work or other areas of your life you are likely to adversely affect those around you.  Don't expect to do well on the spiritual path and continue to do the same things that have made your life miserable in the first place.  I used the word miserable because most of us are at that point when we connect with a Master who takes us on a particular spiritual path.  We know that life is just too painful for us to keep living the way we have been accustomed.  It's like the last time you want to walk into a brick wall and you get to the point where you decide to look for an alternative way of living.  There must be something better than this! Even if our lives are filled with all the goods we ever wanted but if we don't have our hearts flame lightened by a Master life is arid and filled with pain and emptiness.  Believe me I know because I have been there and fortunately found my Master who took me though many years of clearing old and opening to new ways of being.  You can do it and life will be filled with the powers of enthusiasm and energy.

One guided imagery method I taught last week was to become energize by picturing yourself as a solar panel that is layed open to the light and warm positive energy that radiates for our good from God's universe.  Soak up that flow of positive energy into your being and rest in its power.  Make the experience of that power a marker for how to uplifted your inner state.  Monitor your inner state and when you need to be energized used this technique no matter where you are (and nobody needs to know.)

Practice makes perfect.  There is an inner monitoring for blocks and obstacles.  Mind what you say to yourself silently inside or out loud.  Words are powerful.  As the Bible says "In the beginning was the word..."  The Sanskrit work is Matrika Shakti and the powerful vibrations from our words and thoughts ripple out to the environment around us and out to the universe.  Don't blame yourself if you slip because it is a habit that you have got used to that takes you back to a realm within that feels negative and common place.  The more time you spend away from this realm the better you feel and as soon as you catch yourself going back there you will immediately take yourself into the present moment.  Remember God constantly or your higher power and Grace will protect and shield your thoughts.  Always celebrate your accomplishments and acknowledge how well you have done.  There is no such thing as bragging in reality.  The fallacy of being selfish if you speak well of yourself is to suppress your emotions and hinder inner freedom.  Don't be a prisoner to old habits.  Once you recognize their hold over you do the necessary inner work.  Express issues that cause you shame openly and they too will loose their power to diminish your inner greatness.

If there are material goods that you need to manifest, read or watch the Secret and learn how to bring all the wealth you need to support you.  Never focus on what you don't have.  In fact don't even acknowledge that you don't have something, instead spend all your mental imaginings and energy on seeing yourself with what it is you desire.  For instance if you need a home and a car.  Picture yourself in the car that you desire and how the wheel feels in your hands.  Picture yourself driving along familiar roads in your car.  With your home see yourself in the home of your dreams and picture the kinds of things you would like to furnish it with.  Use glossy magazines and make collages.  Create four areas representing the four goals of life. Divide the areas for wealth, health, knowledge and liberation making one or more larger because it is there that you want the most to manifest.  If it is wealth make that half the collage and past pictures of money, lucky rainbows and money pots.  Use what resonates with your particular feel for that goal.  Keep the collage on a wall in your bedroom or living room and think of those things that you wish to come into your life as already being there. 

As a Life Coach I encourage you to develop spiritually and all will manifest from there.  Don't doubt in your ability to be enthusiastic and energized in your life and attract all the things you wish for.
