You and I are living in a time of sweeping changes. At times here on earth the economy, world governments, everything and everyone seems to be in flux. On a more personal level many of us have been aghast as we watched our finances tank. Some of us watched our relationships crash and burn. A few of us felt helpless as our physical health begin teetering on the brink.

There is good news however. You do not need to identify yourself by your current but passing experiences.

You do not need to call yourself “broke” because you are temporarily without the funds you would like to have.

You do not have to feel “loveless” or “deserted” just because one or two friends or even a spouse walked away.

You do not need to label yourself “sick” because your body is hurting here or there. Why make it worse by announcing to everyone you meet that you are feeling bad?

What you need to do is quite the opposite. With as much enthusiasm as you can muster you need to begin seeing yourself as a wonderful positive creator and manifestor of each of your now moments and your future destiny.

You know that you are made of Light. You are made of Love. You can do or be anything you choose.

You need to begin seeing yourself with all the abundance you could ever need or want. Know that you have more than enough money to spare and to share. Affirm that you are rich. Declare that each one of your financial desires or needs is instantly met.

Furthermore, today you must acknowledge that you are not only loved but loving. The very earth embraces you. Be grateful and appreciate the wonder of love that you are. Daily with gratitude and thankfulness you need to send that love forward to others from the depths of your being. That love you send out will rush back to you magnified a thousand times.

Believe that every nerve and cell in the body is continually healthy and regenerating because in truth it is. Appreciate the gift of overflowing health. Be grateful for it. Send that appreciation and gratefulness to each and every one of your physical organs. Send loving thankfulness to your heart, your lungs, your skin. They are alive. They will hear and respond with increased health.

Possessing your own personal human body is a wonderful gift from Spirit. Why? Because if you will really look at your human body and the life you are leading with that body you can see the results of your emotional and mental handiwork. You will have visual proof of what you believe, what you think about and what you feel.

This body of yours, this life you are experiencing, is your canvas. You paint on it day by day, hour by hour. You make it drab or colorful. You make it happy or sad. It is your lessons, your workbook and your test.

There is no need for you to mirror the past. Whether the past is five minutes past or fifteen years past, let it go. Manifest what you have always dreamed of now, today. Your soul is standing by ready to help.

Habitual thoughts, habitual emotions, habitual attitudes and habitual actions can be your finest friends or your most terrifying and destructive enemies. If any habit of yours is bringing unhappiness and grief into your life experience change that habit today.

When you become aware of a dark and gloomy daydream making its home in your mind do this: say to that thought “THIS IS NOT MY STORY!” Say it again. “THIS IS NOT MY STORY!” Push that thought form away from you.

Of course, you realize that anytime you create an empty spot, a mental vacuum, you must fill it. So go directly to the beautiful happy picture you want. Play your wonderful heartfelt dream over and over until there is no room for the gloom. Play it with sound, color, fragrance any additives you can think or imagine but make it real.

In all aspects you have the power to be brand new today. For instance, we know for certain that each day many of the cells of your body are replaced, made new. Why not allow those new cells to be truly new instead of mere replications of yesterday?

You have the power to change your experience and your body by replacing any habitual negative thinking with positive, growth filled thinking!

If you feel it would help, try falling back on what has worked for you before: the affirmations, the prayers, any positive literature. Begin to wipe your slate clean of any miss qualified energies. Then fill those newly empty spaces with the thoughts and feelings of your soul’s heartfelt desires.

Let the negative mental pathways go. See and feel with positive intent only. In other words, begin to carve new mental and emotional roadways to your personal success.

You have the power and you are in charge. Decide to open your energy receptors to the most enlightened thinking you can create. Throw away any self limits. You do not need limitations of any kind. Tell yourself that you are open to all good things.

What others think or believe about you need not affect you in the slightest. BE AWARE THAT THOSE ENERGIES THAT WILL ALWAYS AFFECT YOU ARE YOUR OWN. The seeds you plant moment to moment are shaping your life. Fear, gratitude, love, resistance all of these are seeds, emotional and mental seeds that will grow and become visible manifestations in your life.

If there is any appearance in your life that you do not like decide to change the attitude, thought or feeling that brought it to you. Truly look at what you are sending out on a daily basis. You are your words and thoughts. Replace your beliefs and you will replace the effects.

A few days ago I read about Meagan Bilodeau. Meagan is an 8 year old girl who put a message in a bottle while her family was enjoying a vacation on a cruise ship near Bermuda. She wrote a note including her phone number asking whoever found the bottle to “please, please, please” let her know. Doesn’t that sound like an 8 year old?

Her father told her to toss the bottle over the side of the cruise ship into the Atlantic Ocean. He believed that her message would probably drift on the currents to Europe and hopefully be found there.

That was not what happened. Meagan was delighted when she received a phone call from another little girl, 10 years old, who found the bottle only 15 miles from Meagan’s home in Falmouth Massachusetts. In other words instead of following the natural ocean currents the bottle with her note seemingly followed the strong energy of Meagan’s “please, please, please” desire.

There is a great deal of TRUTH hiding in that result. Everything we do, everything we say, think or feel always “follows us home.” For that reason alone it pays each of us to be aware of what we are giving to the current of life.

The energy each of us emits tends to grow or amplify and return in a strong recognizable form. Where the results of our lives are concerned there simply are no secret thoughts or hidden agendas.

The good news is that we each contain the ability to change. We can redirect the most negative and ingrained energy to new more positive paths. Nothing is incurable. Every so called personal flaw can be brought to the Light.

You have at your disposal today all the energy you will ever need to create the life you were born to express and enjoy. You have no limits! Take charge of your thinking and your emotions. You have the right and the ability to bring about your own idea of perfection whatever it may be and—WHATEVER YOU BELIEVE, YOU ARE RIGHT!

Using the past as a benchmark for your creation of today’s situations and the future is using a flawed yardstick! If your memories of your yesterdays are glowing and positive that is fine but all too often negative memories of the past can cause somewhat irrational reactions in the now.

If your memories of past situations are causing you to react in ways that are uncomfortable or even harmful to you, to those around you and to your current life experiences, it is time to take action.

I am not suggesting that you forget the past or bury it. What I am offering you may seem a bit unusual at first glance but it does work. I am suggesting that you make some subtle but important changes in the way you remember certain troubling aspects from the past.

It is not at all unusual for us to take a past trauma and rehearse it over and over again. We make the memory strong, harsher and more energized until it is vastly different than the original happening. Hashing and rehashing an unhappy past will not create anything positive.

The method I am going to detail for you will not affect anyone in those memories but it can be a world of help to you. For instance, if you have endured emotional or physical abuse in any relationship begin right now to see yourself responding in a different way.

If someone has lowered or crushed your self esteem with heavy words, see yourself saying something mild and just walking away head held high. “I understand your feelings. I am sorry you feel that way.” Then in your imagination you leave the room and let the words roll off. This takes some memory practice but you can do it. Every time the memory comes to your mind practice it in its new form.

If the suffered abuse was a physical one, construct with your imagination a scenario where a concerned and loving person arrives to intercede on your behalf, someone who takes you out of harm’s way. This memory adjustment will not take hold immediately but eventually with your repetition it will replace the original version. Your harsh emotions will soften and subside. The change will free you to trust life more fully.

The tremendous benefit of restructuring memories of the hurtful past is that you can stop the patterns! You do not need to project that “hurt me” energy over and over again. You can stop manifesting similar situations today and tomorrow.

Once you have pulled the plug on the negative aspects of memories you are back in control. You can create the kind of future you truly want. Remember that the past only exists for you as a series of memories. Because this is so, it only makes sense to put as much peace and joyous living into those memories as your imagination will allow.

On a slightly different aspect of the same principle, anytime today you encounter a happening that is not to your liking, a seeming negative, you have a wonderful choice. Why do you have a choice? Because you are the one in charge of labeling and categorizing any situation you find confronting you.

I remember my first time of taking shorthand notes some years ago. I was working for the director of an Illinois research facility. It was a meeting of the 12 department heads and I was writing as fast as I could to keep up with all the input.

After the meeting, when I was busy typing my notes, the director called me to his office. He said, “Now we will decide what happened at the meeting.” In other words he was using the opportunity to label and categorize the results according to his point of view.

Decide to put some sincere thought into how you label things. In other words if nothing comes together the way you had planned, decide to think that this is an opportunity to find a better plan. Label it, “Opportunity Calling” or just tell yourself that this presents an excellent chance to practice that patience skill you have been wanting.

There is no occurrence that can resist your positive identifying spin no matter how dark it may seem on first look. Deciding that every negative is hiding a good opportunity is the best thing you can do for yourself. It opens your mind to unconsidered or previously ignored chances to learn and grow.

Every one of us have had tragedy touch our lives at some time Let me describe to you how I dealt with one of my own most difficult times.

It was ten years ago this past January. My husband Jim and I had been married for 19 years. We taught classes together. He had his own hypnosis clients. My Jim was recovering nicely from an extensive heart surgery two or three months previously. By all appearances he was as well as I had ever seen him. Then with no warning one sunny Arkansas day he shot and killed himself.

I was presented with a huge choice. Of course I mourned. The choice was whether I should also blame myself. Should I feel guilty that somehow I should have seen his mental/emotional state? Should I have known he needed help? Should I have anticipated the tragedy? Was I obliged to shoulder a heavy load of guilt?

This was my decision and no one else could make it for me. I deliberately elected to tell myself that he had my best interests at heart. I felt that because of his age he was most likely concerned that his health would continue to decline and that decline would make him a burden to me. He loved me enough to not allow that to happen.

Was my view of the situation and its cause pure rationalization on my part? Perhaps, but that attitude allowed me to move forward in a life affirming way. That concept freed me from what could have been years of self recrimination and stagnation.

Whatever “the truth” may have been at the time, I believe that he made a loving sacrifice which has allowed me to give myself fully to the work I am meant to do.

I have no doubt that many of you have moved through equally difficult situations. From my clients, I hear all sorts of problems and traumas that they encountered as children and later as adults in relationships.

The truth is that as long as we continue to rehearse the fears, doubts and worries from the past, we will continue to meet similar troubling situations in the present and the future.

A little time invested in giving those troublesome memories a more positive spin is worth the effort involved. There is no reason to let a heavily charged negative memory ruin your life today.

You want to act within each new situation in a positively appropriate new way. What you do not need or want is to react from the past, from a negative memory trigger which spoils the now moment.

The highest good you can extract from the past is the wisdom you have gained—the knowledge and understanding that has brought you to this moment.

Why improve your hurtful memories? Because general we do exactly the opposite. We amplify the hurts beyond all reason and certainly beyond the truth of the past. This amplification through the continual focus of our energy brings most unwelcome results.

You deserve the very best, happiest, most productive life. You can have exactly that. You are strong, powerful, capable and talented. I believe in your right and ability to choose.

You want to manifest your highest desires. Spirit is longing to express itself through you. You invite your heart and soul wisdom for input. You earnestly try to send the right kind and amount of energy. You expect results. All of that is a good thing.

The one difficulty with expectations is that you sometimes become very fixed in what you insist upon for an outcome. In being so exacting in the form of your intentions and their timing, you can block a much better, more satisfying result.

Spirit knows the most beneficial form of your creation and the optimum timing of its arrival. When you do not allow flexibility in either form or timing you may lose the best result.

Nothing that any of us plan to do, no action that we take, can be accomplished in a vacuum. In other words every action we initiate has a ripple effect. Each result we create with our intentions and our energy touches others in some way.

If you can be more open to variations in your desired creation, you will allow the highest and best not only for yourself but for those people who will be blessed by your manifestation as well.

As separate as each of us may feel from time to time, the truth is we are not alone. We are irrevocably joined with the earth and all life. This joining is the reason we need to ask always for “this or something better to bless all those concerned.” Or as the Buddhists might say “intend no harm”.

You have incarnated here on earth at a highly energized time. It is a time of great volatility but also great progress. Your life path is vitally important as you work with all other light workers to energize this period of ascension. You like all of us deeply desire to fulfill your personal purpose as well as your cosmic one.

If I can help you in any way to access your life goals through the channeling of your personal guides and teachers, call for your private appointment. All reading sessions are completely confidential and will be recorded for you. I will meet with you either in my Florida studio or by telephone.

You know that you are so much more than just your physical body and intellect. You are a dynamo of divine energy. Point the energy that is you in a specific direction through your thoughts, your words, your imagination and stand back! Until you begin working with the energy that is you, you simply will not believe the “miracles” you can create.

Let me explain. I believe in affirmations, those positive statements that we make as if they were true this minute. Let me offer my experience with the benefits of affirming. In the 1970’s when I had completed three courses offered by Silva Mind Control, I decided I would attend their convention held in Laredo, Texas.

I was not familiar with Laredo or the Mind Control conventions but I had a strong feeling that the convention would be important for me. Naturally I wanted to get the very most I could from the experience.

To accomplish that goal I recorded my voice on cassette tape telling me something along these lines: “In the first week in October I will attend the Silva Mind Control Convention in Laredo. I will have a tremendously powerful experience and gain much useful knowledge. My intuitive abilities will expand….”
I listened to that 10 minute tape of my voice on my earphones three times every day, morning, noon and night all through the month of September. I followed the listening with a short silent meditation.

In other words, I invested 45 minutes every day for a whole month to be sure of success! Was that “over kill”? Maybe!

What were the results? Yes, I had a super learning experience at the Convention. Every time I encountered a glitch, I reminded myself that I was having a “tremendously powerful experience.” So what, the room reservations were confused. So what! I received a better, larger room that offered an unlimited view of miles!

My time with the hundreds of other attendees in workshop after workshop was totally comfortable as well as exciting. I met some beautifully evolved people. On the plane ride back, I felt I could fly just on my own enthusiasm. I came home with loads of new ideas.

However that which was the most interesting result of all that intense programming was yet to come. Every first week in October from that year to this, I have enjoyed a usually unexpected but enlightening experience. It has become my October gift like a second birthday.

I now look forward to October every year knowing that something wonderful is on the horizon for me. It is as if that energy keeps on working for me and just will not go away. Who could have guessed that those times of affirming and meditating could produce such an ongoing result?

If you will look at the way you are spending or using your own minutes, hours and days, you might decide to invest some of that time in the creation of a “miracle” for yourself! My desire for you is that you manifest the most fulfilling life for yourself that you can think, dream, or imagine! I know you have the power.
