I intend!

1. I ask that everything needing to be known is known here today.
2. I Intend that I am guided guarded, and protected at all times.
3. I Intend that all of my words (or writings) are clear, precise, uplifting, helpful, and fun.
4. And I Intend that all of my words and thoughts and deeds serve the Highest and best Good of
the Universe, myself, and everybody everywhere.
So be it and so it is.

Being Love

(Don't know where I got these---but they are great!)

Am I creating from and through Unconditional Love for myself and others?

Will my creation bring the highest good for myself and others and the planet?

Am I reacting to others and their creations from individual and personal emotional or mental patterns, or am I responding as a channel for the Love of Source?

Am I ready to surrender to the flow of Love from Spirit and to Trust that my creation will manifest in perfection at the right time?

Am I creating from my Heart in a balanced and loving way?

Freeing Ourselves from Karmic Commitments

Any relationships in which we create healing frees us from our soul group karmic commitments and we are finally able to find closure. This may result in the end of certain relationships. Other relationships can take on a new dimension and become what we never expected they could be. This healing process has been attempted over many lifetimes with our soul group. Once we begin to forgive, which is an essential component of the Shift and the only way to heal karmic bonds, we shift the energy of all of our relationships. As we move out of karma and fear and into a high vibration our spiritual connections become stronger. They have always been available to us, but we cannot connect to them as effectively when we are functioning at a lower vibration.

As we shift our energy we are being propelled into vibrations that we may never have experienced in our various lifetimes. These energetic shifts can move us forward so far that we move out of the vibrations of the team or support groups that we have created for ourselves. If we have a fear of being alone this can be a very difficult process as we may have to spend time alone and turn to our spiritual connections to find support and guidance we had previously received from family or friends. Once healing has occurred we can attract new relationships into our lives, including a new soul group, with which we don't have karma and learn to experience life and relationships on a different level. The new group will reflect our higher vibrations and will be able to support us at that level, creating new opportunities for growth and healing on our journey.

Be Peace for our Children from the Moment of Conception

Wisdom to be shared ---also not mine:)

Let us consider some brave new implications for human development at its very beginning -- conception -- of thought as an organizing principle. Ancient Vedic literature refers to the importance of conception as a moment that both captures and reflects the nature of the consciousness of the parents, and lays that portrait down as a gossamer watermark upon the new being, intangible, yet a lifelong, fundamental organizing principle, underlying everything else -- including DNA.

What an opportunity we have at conception to offer a new physical being thoughts and intention that invite harmonized, healthy organization and growth! This isn't mere hypothesis: neonatologist Jean-Pierre Relier highlights embryological research on very early cellular distribution of IGF (intrauterine growth hormone) receptors, that demonstrates the importance of emotional stability in each of the parents at the time of conception for healthiest development of the embryo and placenta.

In a Cartesian framework, the size of something is related to its importance and significance, and there is the tendency to think, How could anything have a lasting impact so very early, when there is just one or two or twelve cells? But recalling chaos theory's "sensitive dependence on initial conditions," doesn't it make sense that a very positive, or very negative, environmental message would bear the most pervasive influence upon a tiny, emerging system, considering that each cell division will replicate that cell's "knowledge" again and again?

Cell biologist Bruce Lipton's drumbeat of a mantra is, "At every level and every stage of development, there is either love -- and with it, growth -- or fear -- and with it protection and a thwarting of growth." Those cues come from the environment, or more precisely, our perception of the environment -- and this is where our divine nature comes in, via what Joseph Chilton Pearce in The Biology of Transcendence calls our "glorious prefrontal cortex." This is the hardware that runs our consciousness software, you might say! Lipton points out that for a growing embryo or fetus, it is the mother's perception of life, her psychological "atmosphere," that gets downloaded as biochemical and energetic instructions about the world into which it will be born -- a world in which to thrive or survive.

Rudolf Steiner in the early 1900's taught that "During pregnancy, the mother's joy and pleasure are the forces that provide her baby with perfect organs." The latest research proves him prescient. A pregnant mother's state of mind is her baby's entire universe. Her depression or unremitting anxiety (not the occasional stressful days that are simply part of life!) communicates to the baby that it is going to be born into a dangerous environment, and its brain cells adapt to function in an unsafe world. The implications of this for society are immense. Babies of stressed mothers develop unconscious coping and survival skills like hyper-vigilance and hyper-reactivity, and their neural chemical receptors designed to perceive pleasure and contentment suffer decreased sensitivity.

A vicious cycle can begin early and spiral insidiously downward as the child grows: the baby is hard to soothe, which frustrates Mom and Dad; this generates a spectrum of strong feelings within them, which further activates the baby's heightened "antennae" for threat, makes him even more agitated, and may lead to subtle or outright neglect or abuse by exhausted, exasperated parents. With no positive interruption of this negative feedback loop, the child has limited opportunity to internalize the self-regulating capacities developed through healthy attachment; once the toddler is a "handful," there likely are consequences to "make the child mind," punishments whose shame-based action further thwarts peace-oriented brain development, hardwiring it instead to thrive in a threatening world. Later, the child's "impulsivity" gets labeled, and his sense of alienation -- from himself, from others, from Life -- intensifies.

Thus, a pregnant mother's joy is a fundamental prenatal "prescription" for peaceful babies -- and grownups! When joy seems out of reach, it is possible to coax it towards you. Gratitude is one of the most powerful forces for well-being. Smile, say an inner "thank you" for some blessing in your life, breathe mindfully, invite the imagination in, dream noble qualities for your child, envision her luminous unfolding. Joy will likely surface.

Learning is Embedded in Relationship

Building on the foundation of a healthy brain at birth, the critical first three years teach a child -- via her relationships -- myriad important lessons for a healthy self ("I'm effective in the world," "I can trust others to be there for me," and so on.) A child who is securely attached to his parents is deeply motivated to behave in harmony with them. This becomes a positive feedback loop in him which gradually expands outward to include the wider world in the category of "those who matter to me."

Children take our cues about how to treat themselves, others and the environment -- with compassionate care or mindless disregard. We need to embody the peace we want them to manifest one day. Children learn unfortunate lessons of cynicism (a subtle violence) when their parents pleasurably criticize friends, acquaintances, politicians. Choose words that are kind, beautiful, meaningful and clear. Children absorb the inner and outer atmosphere we create.

Be peace for them, from the very beginning.

A Quote from Rumi

You think because you understand one you must also understand two, because one and one make two. But you must also understand "and." --Rumi

Total Belief System

Then what is the answer? The key ingredient is mindset, the combination of conscious and unconscious beliefs, your values, expectations, and experiences. I also call this the "Total Belief System," or TBS for short.

In the last e-mail lesson you received, you learned to recognize a "good story" as just that: a reasonable sounding excuse for lack of success, but an excuse nonetheless. This is a crucial first step to uncovering any limiting beliefs that are hobbling your TBS and, therefore, your success and wealth in life.

If you don't like the program, change the channel.

You see, if the unconscious mind is calling all the shots, then we are left to our old "programming," the conditioning of our childhood. We are at the whim of our child's mind, which contains antiquated and often detrimental ideas about our abilities and possibilities in life.

What did your environment hand you?

I believe we are born into greatness and conditioned into mediocrity. That conditioning comes from good people who just don't know any better and who do the best they can. Still, they're bound to tell us we're limited, and in so many ways they tell us what we can't do.

We're conditioned with that from the time we are born. And then we show up as adults, with those things out of our conscious awareness, and that conditioning still drives who we are and what we do and do not.

To change results you must deal with the cause...

Go straight to the source. Most people want to throw solutions at the effect (the lack of results), rather than at the cause (the mindset). In other words, they look at their lack of wealth in any area and ask: How can I get more skills? How can I learn more? How can I work harder? But by definition, the result is the effect, the manifestation of a greater cause. The cause is at the level of consciousness

Imagine the unconscious mind is the soil, and the results we experience in the physical world are the plant. If we have a weak plant (or weak results) the real solution is usually to amend the soil. That doesn't mean that conditions like the amount of sunshine and attacks from bugs are not factors, but they're not really the determining factor. Similarly, mindset or TBS is the determining factor in your Harmonic Wealth™, not the circumstances of your life.

Another analogy I use frequently is that of the movie theater. Most of us will sit through almost any film, good or bad. Instead of getting up and leaving the ones we think are horrible, we stay riveted to our seats and continue to view. How like life!

Those who are dissatisfied with their lives simply continue to sit there and watch the results they don't like. Why? Because they've paid for the ticket; they're invested in seeing how it all plays out. Some people will complain about the movie, or throw cans and bottles, but that doesn't get them anywhere; it doesn't change the film. Yet there are those unique few who go back to the ticket counter, ask for their money back and see a different movie. They realize that:

The results on the screen don't change until they change the film.

Your Mastery will be Your REST

Jesus said: “If you are searching, you must not stop until you find. When you find, however, you will become troubled. Your confusion will give way to wonder. In wonder you will reign over all things. Your mastery will be your rest.”
