Your life masterpiece

April 12th, 2012

Quote

When we are really honest with ourselves, we must admit our lives are all that really belong to us.  So it is how we use our lives that determines the kind of men we are.  César Chavez

A few weeks ago, when I was in the studio painting, what came to me in a moment of inspiration was the following: your life is a love letter to God!  I was struck with incredible ahhhness….and found the statement so powerful.   I to this day, I continue to ponder these beautiful  and powerful words….God for me is this universal energy of love available to each and every one of us…it’s in everything, it’s in you!

Are you willing to be Brave to listen to your heart, to your spirit?

April 11th, 2012

“All it takes is finding the bravery to be true to what’s in your heart and in your spirit.  It’s not always easy (that’s the brave part) but is wonderfully simple.”  Jamie Ridler

I love this quote…it is simple yet incredibly powerful. Are you being true to your heart? To your Spirit?  Your spirit is your soul’s essence and it’s important to know her/him well and let him/her shine as brilliantly as she can. Your spirit lies deep within you…it is you…the very core of you…..do you let your Spirit shine through or do you put a mask on it…afraid of showing others who you truly are for fear they may judge or reject it? Do the opinion of others sway you ….meaning, you put more importance on their words, thoughts and perceptions rather than searching your own heart to discover what is innately yours to begin with.

One Love, One Heart

March 9th, 2012

This week’s newsletter is inspired by Bob Marley’s song; One Love, One Heart which I heard for the very first time when I was in Jamaica recently.

I do believe we are all connected and that we are all special and unique.  We are one heart, one love- all a big part of the human family. We are love. You are loved. Wherever you are, love finds you.  It can be felt in the touch of another, it can be heard and felt in music, it may be in the warmth of the sun kissing your face. It may be found in the gentle breeze of the wind or the ocean air. It may be found in the giggles, the laughter and the tears.  You may taste love in the deliciousness of the food you choose to put into your body (your sacred vessel for this earthly plane).  It is everywhere! Can you see it? Can you feel it? Can you hear it? Can you taste it?  Are you aware that love abounds everywhere around you or are you seeking it, awaiting for it to show itself in that one special person rather than choosing to experience it right now?

The Key Is Love

December 20th, 2011

In my earlier years, I defined success by the status of my professional career and the things I had achieved and obtained in my personal life. But within me, a deep stirring rumbled beneath the surface − I did not know what it signified. Yet it scared me. This feeling never really left me; I would go as far as to say it haunted me. It would make an appearance when I least expected it to, while I was continuously searching outside myself for the answers, believing I would find something out there to satisfy my personal needs.

The Genie in You

There’s a genie deep within you;
He’s been there from the start.
He’s not in some old dusty lamp;
He lives within your heart. Read the rest of this entry »

Happy New Year to fabulous ,talented, gorgeous you!

For me, ringing in the New Year is time for inner reflection, a time to let go of things/beliefs that no longer serve me or to let go of the many things I’ve been holding on tightly that my be holding me back.

All with a view that each of these assist me to move forth in this new year deeper awareness of self as well as a greater appreciation for life’s most precious things/people/places.

The Healing Peace of Reiki

January 21st, 2011

Article by Jacqueline Ramsey

This article appears in the current Winter 2010 issue of Reiki News Magazine.

“Oh God, I’m paralyzed,” my mind screamed.

I lay in bed unable to move. I had awoken and tried to get out of bed when the pain in my upper body hit. It had been so sharp and so severe that I just lay there trying to calm myself and manage my rising panic. Eventually I was assisted out of bed and taken to the doctor by my husband.

I was not paralyzed, though I was diagnosed with a herniated disc in my neck. I lived in pain, every hour of every day after that, for almost four years. Weeks after my diagnosis, a friend suggested I take a Reiki class along with the pain medication and physiotherapy. Listening to her describe it, I got really excited. This first level was primarily for self-healing though I would be able to use it for others. At this point I was most interested in it for me, but I figured I would practice on family and friends, too. Read the rest of this entry »

Many are on the treadmill of life, really not paying attention to what is around them and within them. They run to and from things, grasping for air, wondering will this ever stop! Afraid to stop for they may not know where to turn to next. For you see, they seem to be having so much fun ont he treadmill of life. Yet, if you ask them about what surrounds them….most may not be able to answer for they have not been paying attention to the gifts that surround us each and every day. Read the rest of this entry »
