Monday, September 30th, 2013 Focus: I choose to have a definite, positive, mental attitude, a way of thinking called faith.

Almost any disease can be induced in hypnotic subjects by suggestion. For example, a subject in the hypnotic state can develop a high temperature, flushed face, or chills according to the nature of the suggestion given. By experiment, you can suggest to the person that he is paralyzed and cannot walk: it will be so.

If a man says he is allergic to Timothy grass, you can place a synthetic flower or an empty glass in front of his nose, when he is in a hypnotic state, and tell him it is Timothy grass. He will portray the usual allergic symptoms. This indicates that the cause of the disease is in the mind. The healing of the disease can also take place mentally.

The process of all healing is a definite, positive, mental attitude, an inner attitude, or a way of thinking, called faith. Healing is due to a confident expectancy which acts as a powerful suggestion to the subconscious mind releasing its healing potency. You can rest assured, if you have faith, you shall get results.

Saturday, September 28th, 2013 Focus: I choose to relight my inner passion for life.

Why is our passion, our exuberance, missing? First of all we have to stop being so emotionally guarded. We hide our emotional expressions because we feel vulnerable and even exposed if we show our true feelings. As we defend ourselves subconsciously we use up our vitality, the energy we have every day to apply to whatever we do, and our internal resources become taxed, even limited.

We also need to self-nurture. We must do what we love, what opens our hearts, what comforts us. A long massage, a walk in the woods, a great book, anything that brings us back to center and inner comfort. We must recall what brought passion to us in our past, like during our childhood when we were innocent and not guarded from life and everything was interesting and exciting.

Passion is a state of being, not something to do. If you let your guard down and stop defending yourself, let the tension ooze out of your body, what you will find is the capacity to feel much more deeply than you knew you were capable of.

Friday, September 27th, 2013 Focus: I have the power to forgive and let go of the past, and thus change my present and my future.

I’ve heard many people claim that they are the way they are because of what their mother and father did. That’s history. They did that to you, you’ve had that experience, and you chose to feel what you’re feeling. Now you have the power to forgive, release and let go and make another choice.

It doesn’t change what they did or all the behavioral patterns you acquired over many lifetimes that got you right to where you are, but in this instant, having the power to forgive, release and let go of that past, you can change your present, grow, and change your future.

When you do this, you stop attracting those kinds of elements that “help” you have those “bad behaviors”, “accidents” or “victimizations.” You won’t need them. After all, you only create those things to give you another opportunity to make a different choice. They are neither “good” nor “bad”, they just are.

Thursday, September 26th, 2013 Focus: If I need help, I ask for it directly.

What is the difference between complaining and discussing certain topics in a constructive way? Here, our attitude or our motivation for speaking is chief.

Discussing a situation involves taking a more balanced approach, in which we actively try to understand the origin of the problem and consider various possible remedies. We are proactive, not reactive. We assume responsibility for what is our responsibility and cease blaming others when we cannot control a situation.

Thus, it’s possible to discuss our health without complaining about it. We simply tell others the facts and go on. If we need help, we ask for it directly, instead of lamenting in the hopes that someone will rescue us or feel sorry for us.

Saturday, September 21st, 2013 Focus: I identify the type of future I wish to be a part of, then focus my creative intentional energies toward this goal.

.

Each of us must identify the type of future we wish to be a part of, then focus our creative intentional energies toward this goal. The choices we make must be coherent with the direction we wish to move toward. By creating and feeling this intention we accumulate great amounts of supporting energy. In this way we can overcome the array of debilitating social forces that fear this change.

The future is very much a human story. A story where the heart and consciousness together create what is truly needed for the future: a balance of our human relationships; expanded development for our children, not arrested development; harmonious work with the land and resources; and, above all, appreciation and gratitude.

Each of us is a great bundle of energy and we vibrate and resonate within a confluence of energy fields, waves, and connections. In other words, the human family shares a collective energetic field from which we can gain strength, support, and well-being. We are on the verge of coming together.

Here’s a question for the ages..

When you have been toiling at something you love for years and years, does one appreciate the effort… and learn from reaching goals that you thought were impossible at the beginning. Beginning with the premise that you will not visit family, cannot see the birth of your 1st Grandson and Granddaughter. Knowing that all you have done in the past has hurt you and those you love the most.
What drives this herculean effort that we as Human beings can accomplish if we try… Our flaws, our faults our lies our guilt. Take a deep breath…..We can sail through anything. If I have learned one thing….When having negative thoughts, and you construct a belief around an assumption, we can make that thought a reality. Seriously..
So if we can understand that Thoughts or something you think is really going to happen, will indeed happen. Thought- belief- behavior. When we hear negative, or positive thoughts our mind are telling us, remember it is only a thought. It is not real…Yet…Move towards the light.
Jamie

Dalai Lama shared a post.

We have a largely materialistic lifestyle characterized by a materialistic culture. However, this only provides us with temporary, sensory satisfaction, whereas long-term satisfaction is based not on the senses but on the mind. That’s where real tranquility is to be found. And peace of mind turns out to be a significant factor in our physical health too.

Monday, September 16th, 2013 Focus: I take some time for myself each day to relax and reflect.

Stress disrupts your physical and mental health.

Even the best kinds of stimulation can grow overwhelming, eventually canceling out their potential benefits. Therefore, take some time for yourself each day to relax and reflect.

A daily bit of peace and quiet will go a long way toward helping you achieve and maintain optimal mental health.

Saturday, September 14th, 2013 Focus: I choose to have a peaceful state of mind.

Ignorance obscures the mind’s enlightened qualities. One way that ignorance obscures the wisdom mind is through negative emotions like anger, jealousy, and desire, which keep the mind from remaining in the natural state.

When we are under the control of negative emotions, we simply cannot have a peaceful state of mind. We find ourselves worried and uneasy, floating in an ocean of ignorance, where we are tossed about by waves of resentment, fear and attachment.

It is important to remember that ignorance can be removed; it is not the fundamental nature of the mind. If we understand the causes and effects of ignorance and wisdom, we can work to remove confusion and bring out the inherent enlightened qualities.

Tuesday, September 10th, 2013 Focus: I create good feelings by being a mindful/attentive listener.

When a person is given a chance to tell his views without the threat of judgment or advice, even if his listener does not agree, that is the first step toward creating good feelings. A sense of openness on both sides allows for discussion and problem solving.

Self-esteem grows from the respect that comes from being heard. People are better able to attend to school lessons, projects, and the responsibilities of the workplace when basic emotional needs, like being understood, have been met. Henry David Thoreau said, “The greatest compliment that was ever paid to me was when someone asked me what I thought, and attended to my answer.”

When confidence grows, we are better able to discover our potential and positively influence others. Mindful listening has the power to change the direction of our lives and those we come in contact with every day.
