Be New in the New Year!

sally3.jpgEvery breath presents us with an opportunity for renewal.  The leaves don’t regret the turning of the seasons and the birds don’t lament winters past.  Every thing in the natural world exists fully in this moment and is therefore always new.  Humans have this same ability to be renewed and live fully in the present moment for we are not separate from the phenomenal world we are integral to it. 
 
Numerologically 2008 was a year of new beginnings.  What did you initiate?  What seeds did you gather for harvest this past year?  Spend some time this week contemplating these questions, because 2009 is the year that we will be planting and nurturing these seeds.  Perhaps there was something that was initiated that you don’t want to bring to fruition this coming year.  Write those things down and burn them, release them, let them go.  You can do this; it is your birthright to be renewed and prosperous in this coming year.  Do you believe you can have that?  I know that you can.
 
May the coming hours, days, weeks, and months be a blessing to you.  Breathe deeply and live fully.
Love,
Krista


Your Thoughts: Don’t Hesitate to Erase

Let them have the floor to speak .Then, when they’re done talking, talk back to those thoughts and correct them. Let them know that they have no power. They hold no weight. And most importantly–They’re not real.”

Our thoughts create our reality. This is no secret. However, have you ever thought or imagined an event so crazy, that if it happened instantly, you would be in deep trouble? I know I have. In fact, I don’t know of anyone who hasn’t.  Have you ever thought about why those thoughts almost never happen instantaneously? I have. And what I’ve come up with may be just as crazy as the thoughts themselves.

The best way to explain my theory is this:  Your thoughts are like those school erasable markers, and your reality is like the dry erase board that you write on with those markers.

New Year Clearing Ceremony
Saturday January 3rd from 1:00 to 3:00 PM

Join me for this fun yet powerful way to bring in the new year.  First we’re going to make list of all the burdens (relationships included) and all of the thoughts that no are longer serving us then we’re going to burn and release them!  Then we’ll turn our attention to aligning with our life’s path, our talents, and our desires. 

Together we’re going to create clear intentions, visualize a clear path for the New Year, and welcome 2009 burden free!

“Why Do You Keep Focusing on What You Do Not Want?”

12/02/2008

4 Comments »

lily31.jpg“Why do you keep focusing your attention on what you do not want?” This question was asked over and over again at the seminar I attended a few months ago on *The Law of Attraction by Ester and Jerry Hicks. 

The Law of Attraction simply states that whatever you think about consistently you experience, so if you don’t like your life’s experiences then change your thinking.  That is, if you keep focusing on what’s not working in your life you’ll never be able to create what it is you really want.

Sitting there in the audience watching person after person go up on stage and have this same question posed to them, I became acutely aware of many of the same repetitive and negative thought patterns within myself.

 I left the seminar convinced that negative thinking is useless.  Whether you believe in the Law of Attraction or not, repetitive negative thinking and haranguing about what is not working in your life, who did what to whom, what Mary should do about Bob etc…creates internal chaos which inevitably leads to external chaos.

What is Law of Attraction and Who is Ester Hicks?

lily3.jpgThe Law of Attraction simply states that whatever you think about consistently you experience, so if you don’t like your life’s experiences then change your thinking. 

This concept is very easy to understand, but the human being is a complex animal.  We are not just a thinking body, we have an emotional body, we have a past, we have genetics which affects our temperament, we have repetitive and ingrained habits, we live with aging (ungrateful) parents, we have (ungrateful) children, (outrageous) college tuition, and so on… 

However, implied in The Law of Attraction is the belief that YOU are not all of these things YOU are something infinitely greater than just your thoughts, your feelings, your temperament, and your experiences… and when you recognize a pattern of thought that does not feel good, you tap into that Source that is YOU and that Source is all powerful. So, Law of Attraction is a philosophy that puts your ultimate well-being in your own hands. 

Ester Hicks channels a collective energy called Abraham, so it’s not just “she” that is speaking but “they” that are speaking.  I like to think of “Abraham” as having an advanced masters degree in the field of Law of Attraction and Ester has a highly skilled teaching assistant. 

Many of us are new to this idea of “channeling” and perhaps the concept is a little weird (I know it gives my dad a bit of the hebi-jeebies),  but try and reserve your judgments for after you’ve read the article above and perhaps done some research on your own.

As always, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Love,
Krista
