Positive
Thinking & Feeling = Positive Manifestations!
I remember as a child my mother reading "The Power Of Positive
Thinking" by Norman Vincent Peale. I didn't realize it then, but she
really was ahead of her time so to speak in many ways and especially
in regards to this. It wasn't until many years later when I too became
more actively involved in learning how to shift my thinking that I
understood just how powerful this concept truly is.
Positive thinking is a tool and like any tool, there is a learning
curve. You learn over time how to reach for a positive thought or as
the Abraham-Hicks material explains, "You reach for a better feeling
thought" which in turn, if you focus on that better feeling thought,
attracts another thought that feels a bit better and then another and
another. Law of Attraction insures that what ever we are focused upon
we will over time manifest. How quickly something manifests depends on
the amount of emotion behind the thought and how willing we are to
allow what ever we are focused upon to manifest in our lives.
Its amazing to me how many thoughts most of us have are not so
positive in nature and we don't even realize it. Its easy to go on
"auto-pilot" and not really hear what we are saying to ourselves and
others day after day. It really hit home for me one time when one day
after listening to several people complain and moan and whine about
everything under the sun that I just wanted to scream at them all
"ENOUGH!! Heavens, just stop and reflect on what IS going right, for I
can remind you of so many things that I know are truly wonderful in
your lives and THAT is what you want to grow!"
Of course it wasn't long after that when I could hear the Grandfathers
trying to get my attention so I stopped and sat down, asking them why
it was I was attracting so much of this and then it hit me; I was
spending much of my time on auto-pilot myself, running so many
thoughts through my own mind in regards to my own life that certainly
were no where near positive thinking or feeling. Law of Attraction was
simply mirroring all of that back to me through other people. So I
tried a little experiment. Before I left home for the morning to run
errands, I would put myself in as positive a frame of mind as I could
muster just to see what would happen. It seemed that The Universe then
stood on its head in an effort to Bless me in Abundance with all
manner of Good! People were more helpful and friendly, I caught the
buses I needed to catch easily and there was always a seat available.
I found coins or even dollar bills (one time I even found $20.00!) or
every place I stopped was having a sale on something I needed.
Business would soar that day and I would also start receiving
wonderful emails from customers praising Morningstar essences to the
skies and saying how pleased they were with everything. I would have
wonderful moments with my boys and partner, and everything I needed to
accomplish flowed smoothly and well. On and on it would go, as though
everything had suddenly been sprinkled with magic dust!
Yet I also paid closer attention to what happened on the days when I
did not take the time to either work with essences (the same ones that
are in the blend) or spend a few moments writing in my Gratitude
journal, meditating or otherwise Pre-paving my day as I wanted it to
go. Those were the days when things did not go nearly so well, and I
felt stressed, harried and just totally out of sorts. And then I
noticed that I had a tendency to have a repeat of that days troubles
the next day and then the day after that until finally I could see
what I was doing to myself. And became very unwilling to go there
again. It isn't something that I tried to force to change, but more
something that I became more and more willing to allow to change
within myself. I began working with this blend daily, some days using
it once in the morning and once again at night, other days using it
several times throughout the day. My focus became "I want to feel
Good". No matter what, I want to feel Good, I want to feel Joy, I want
to feel at Peace. Nothing else matters than that I feel Good because
when I feel Good, everything in my life works better and better and
better with less and less effort on my part. It all just flows, one
good thing to another to another. This also means that my vibration of
feeling Good is also making it that much easier for all others to also
feel Good and have more and more positive experiences because this is
what I am sending out into the Mass Consciousness. And isn't this what
all of us want? To feel Good and have our feeling Upliftment also
being a source of Joy and Upliftment for everyone else? For there is
nothing that we can do that cannot help or hinder others so we may as
well start with where we are, which is all any of us can do anyway,
focus on feeling Good and then we become living examples for others as
to how they can Uplift and Positively change their own lives!
It is worth the time methinks to seek out those tools that help you to
feel Good. This may include affirmations, meditation, exercise,
healthful eating, reading several pages of an uplifting book each day.
Playing with your dog, going to the park once or twice a week,
preparing a special meal for yourself and your family. Keep a
Gratitude Journal, write down each day what you experience that you
love and feel appreciation for. Take a few moments to visualize how
you would like your day to flow. This is what Pre-paving is all about,
you are sending your energy forward and saying directly to The
Universe "This is what I desire, please help me to Manifest it and
Thank you!" That's really all it takes, and when you use this essence
blend along with it, it adds a powerful positive punch to the Positive
Energy you are flowing outwards.
I don't say this often, but as with The Akumon essences, this is one
that I would really like to see people using daily or even just
weekly. It can make such a difference when we work with tools on a
Vibrational level for this is what we all are, Vibration Beings living
in a Vibrational World. What we Vibrate is what we attract, so we may
as well put our wonderful minds to focus on that which is Loving,
Uplifting and Positive and see that expanding and growing into even
more Loving, Uplifting and Positive Expressions of Vibrational
Manifestation!
Because this blend does contain so many essences I shall not be
listing them all. There are 22 essences in this blend which is by far
the most I have ever used in a blend before and yet it works so
wonderfully that I know that it was the right blend to create at this
time.

My Life Is In Divine Order
Recently it seems that everywhere we turn there are fearful headlines
and fearful people, and it can be very challenging at times to
maintain our own sense of connection with The Higher when surrounded
by such strong messages of gloom and doom. Yet what is so important
that people understand right now is that the only thing that is of
real value and importance IS their own sense of connection with The
Universe/God/All That Is. For you see, all energy, all that you could
ever desire to have or experience in life, flows from the same Source
that created everything. Your Money, Health, Success, Happy
Relationships, Right Home, all of it flows first from God/Goddess/All
That Is. Yes, there are many channels that these things can flow to
you through but when people become dependent upon the channel instead
of recognizing the Source from which it all flows, then this is where
one will experience the ups and downs of life, with the downs
unfortunately being more common than the ups.
To live a life that is in Divine Order is to know that no matter what
appears to be happening in the world around you, it need not intrude
into your life and disrupt it unless you are focused on it doing so.
It means that you and only you, become the Conscious Creator of your
own life and life experience. It means that you know that your
connection with the Source of all Life is so strong and powerful, that
nothing can come into your experience except for that which is for
your own Highest and Best Good. It means that you tap into the never
ending flow of All Good, anything that you could possibly desire for
yourself, because it is what has been promised to you by All That Is
from the beginning. To deny yourself your own Good, which is what many
people do, will not improve the world around you. For your Good is
only meant for you and you alone, no one else can benefit from your
Good. And each of us has our own Good, that which was intended for
each of us from the beginning of creation. We only have to allow our
lives to begin flowing into Divine Order for us to open the floodgates
of all that was meant for us to Be, Have and Experience.
When you consciously set forth to bring your own life into Divine
Order many wonderful things begin to occur! Old problems that you may
have struggled for years with suddenly begin to dissolve because you
no longer feel that you have to come up with the solutions. You simply
know that the perfect Divine Solution has already been created for you
and in the perfect way and time it will appear. All you need do now is
let go. Doors that you have been pushing against suddenly swing open
or new and better doors suddenly take their place. You are no longer
fighting, resisting, worrying, fretting or feeling concern over
anything. You are simply allowing your life to move into Higher and
Higher Flows where only the most Positive of Manifestations can occur.
Your Vibration shifts and opens up more fully, thus attracting many
new and wonderful things to you easily and effortlessly. You are
becoming One with Source and your own Good, which is how your life was
always intended to be.
Clarity and a strong sense of Well Being also abounds. You soon
realize what has been out of synch in your life and no longer content
to allow that irritation to continue, you find that you know what to
do to resolve it and how to do it. Things that you need to release
fall away from you easily and joyfully while those things that are
really a much better match for you begin to take their place. Your
life flows and takes on a shimmering, magical quality where it seems
that everything you touch turns to Gold! The Higher is now directing
your life from within you and you no longer need be subjected to what
others are thinking and feeling and doing or not doing. Instead of
panicking when one channel appears to be closing down, you will
instead know that your Life IS in Divine Order and that you are being
Guided and Directed, Loved and Supported from within by Source. You
begin to clear away anything that does not support you or make you
feel Joyful, you release that which you held on to because of fear
that nothing better would take its place. You finally understand that
the life that you are living is in fact the Life of The Divine! YOU
are The Higher in physical form and YOU AS The Higher were always
meant to live as Gods and Goddesses. This is the Truth of you and this
Truth has been handed down through the generations by every great
Spiritual leader that humanity has ever known.
Give up any concern as to which channels your Good will flow through
to you from. It doesn't matter. There are an Infinite number of
channels through which your Good can flow and from time to time some
will be better for you than others. At times one channel will close
because it no longer serves you, and instead, another channel will
open that will be much more Abundant and Prosperous for you. But this
can only happen if you are willing to allow it to be and you don't
have to wait for it or do anything to "prove" your "worthiness" for
this to happen. It will happen as quickly as you are willing to allow
your own life to come into Divine Order. Then Miracle follows Miracle
and wonders shall never cease!
You shall probably find when working with this essence that you feel a
strong desire to clear anything from your home that no longer pleases
you or may never have given you Joy to begin with. Brilliant, this is
a very good sign that you are on the right track so keep going! You
will probably also find yourself affirming the name of this blend
often, "My Life IS In Divine Order, Always And In All Ways". This too
is important so be sure to repeat this affirmation often and watch as
your Good unfolds with amazing speed. You will soon see that all truly
is in your own hands and as you feel yourself coming into Higher and
Higher Alignment, be sure to give Thanks to Source and Celebrate how
wonderful your life has become!
As with the previous Blend of the Month
there are 22 essences in this blend so I shall not be listing them all
here.

My Financial Well Being Is In Divine
Order
I know that what has been on many people's minds recently is the
"financial crises" that has been in progress for quite some time now.
This didn't suddenly blossom overnight of course, there has been much
sowing of seeds that has brought it all about. And while I understand
that it has left many people very frightened with all the "doom and
gloom" that has been bandied about, (and yes, someone recently did say
to me "You Twit! If you had any sense you would be frightened too!" )
I still see that there is much Good that is also being born from it
all. The other day I was chatting with my boys about it because one of
them asked me if I thought that we would be going into another "great
depression". What I said to them was that if they felt fear in regards
to this, then they needed to remember that they create their own
reality just the same as everyone else and how it might impact them
was solely within their control. I also pointed out that during the
time of the depression, there were people that attracted millions of
dollars to themselves because they refused to believe that they could
do any less than that. HP was one such company that was started during
that time and look at how successful it has been over the years! I
then went on to say that I believe that Wealth, Money, Prosperity and
Well Being come from God/Goddess/All That Is and The Higher is in no
way affected by what is happening or isn't happening on Wall Street.
Money, Health, Love or any other good thing you can think of does not
come from the circumstances in the world around us. It comes from an
eternally Loving and Giving Universe that only wants all people to be
Happy and Fulfilled. It is when we turn our attention away from The
Higher that problems tend to erupt into our lives. When we listen to
the fears of other people rather than our own Guidance, then we fall
into the same dark pit that the others are in. When we demand that our
Good comes through this channel or that, then we have very effectively
limited our Good. When we instead affirm to The Universe that we are
willing to allow our Good to flow to us in what ever way is for our
Highest and Best Good, then we Prosper in All Ways. For then along
with the Money or Resources we want/need, we also have Peace of Mind,
Good Health, Loving, Happy Relationships and True Success in what ever
we feel Guided to do. When we open to the Richness of Life, then Life
can't help but come rushing in to continuously Bless and Uplift us.
But we have to be willing to allow what ever one chooses to think of
as The Higher to be in control. For that is what and who we truly are,
we emerge from Spirit and we were always meant to live AS Spirit,
nothing less.
Right now there are many folks trying to assign blame to this
political party or the media or the banks or the folks who took on
mortgages that they knew full well they couldn't really afford. The
truth is, there is plenty of blame to go round if one wants to go down
that road and yet it won't solve anything. What will make a difference
is if those of us who choose to believe that there is something far
greater than the "reality" seem to be tuned into right now also choose
to see that only Good can come from what is happening right now.
Prosperity author Catherine Ponder wrote in one of her books one of
the greatest sayings I have ever read: "You intended to do me harm.
Yet God intended it for Good". Much of what has gone on in the
financial world has been based on harming other people. Nobody seemed
to have any real concern about following such wonderful wisdom as
"Love thy neighbor as thyself" for it they had, none of this would
have happened. Greed is NOT good, it is an incredibly destructive way
of being. For greed is also based on fear, fear that one will not have
enough, fear that unless one finds a way to "take advantage" of
someone else that one will not have enough. Obviously this can only
end in tears for that sort of energy going out into The Universe can
only manifest more of the same feelings of fear and lack, no matter
how much "wealth" one has. Yet for all of this, I truly do believe
that Spirit DOES Intend all of this for Good! Hopefully people will
learn from what has happened and even more importantly, maybe more
people will be drawn to turning towards The Higher and find the Peace
and sense of Well Being that comes from going within and recognizing
the Truth of one's own Being and wanting above all else to always feel
the wonderful feelings that come from being plugged into Source. For
as we do this, we find that our lives go from strength to strength and
from miracle to miracle. For this is Universal Law.
Your Good is not dependent on anyone or anything. The Universe is
bigger than that. Your Good is not dependent on the value of your
house, what is in your bank account or in your 401k. Spirit is bigger
than that. Stop and think for a moment of the name "All That Is". Can
you feel what that really means? God/Goddess is really and truly ALL
THAT IS! And if The Higher is ALL THAT IS, then none of us have
anything to fear. Yes we can give in to the fear and worry about what
tomorrow may bring, yes we can listen to those who are ranting about
how awful everything is. Or we can choose to listen to something that
is far bigger and far more powerful than what is happening right now.
I know that some of you may be facing some major challenges right now
and believe me, I can empathies! Been there, done that, bought the
T-shirt and the coffee mug, even took the world tour. Those of you who
know me well also know that at one time I honestly didn't know how I
was going to feed my boys from day to day let alone pay the rent and
the bills. Yet somehow, the money that was needed found its way to me.
Finally someone told me that what I really needed to do was to always
remember to go within and ask The Universe to bring me what I needed.
I leaned, slowly but surely, how to let go of worry and fear and
simply trust in the process. I learned how to focus my mind on what I
wanted rather than what I didn't want or on the "reality" that seemed
to be staring me in the face. I worked with the essences, I read
books, I meditated, I visualized, I asked for any appropriate tool to
be brought into my life that could truly help me. As time went on, I
found myself teaching other people about Prosperity (among other
things) and loved every minute of that. I still do! Then one day when
I was being quite human I found that I was slipping back into the old
fear mode when suddenly I said " I am so freaking tired of worrying
about money of all things! Come what may, I just can't muster the
energy to sit here and fret about it any longer!" What a relief! Yes
there are moments when the old stuff comes up again but those times
are fewer and fewer and my ability to get myself back on track becomes
greater and greater. Then I realized that the whole journey for me was
Spirit leading me to something that I do have such a great passion
for, teaching others how to allow more of their own Good into their
lives. What a wonderful way to live!
No matter what is happening in your own life right now, the most
important thing you can do is begin right now to work on your own
consciousness. We all have areas where we think and feel in terms of
lack rather than Abundance, where we expect bad luck instead of being
open to and aware of positive opportunities. You see, when your
consciousness is really and truly the only thing that matters. For it
is through your consciousness that you attract either the best in life
or problems in life. Problems are just a way that Source has of
alerting us to be aware of what we are thinking and expressing. They
are not punishment, they are not permanent (unless we choose to think
they are), they are simply a wake up call that says "Hey, something
you are thinking about here isn't the Truth of you so shift your
focus". The Truth of you is that you are Love, you are Divine, you are
Wealth, you are Healthy and Strong, you are Wise and Wonderful, you
are Beautiful and Special, and once you really begin to see yourself
as these things, then this is what you shall begin to experience more
and more as Truth for your life. You came here to contribute something
to this world that no one else can offer. You came here to express the
Divine Truth of who you are so that others will come to remember who
they are as well. You came here to enjoy life, to have fun, to laugh
well and often. You came here to show others that anything worth
having comes directly from Source and when we open up and allow Source
to be THE Source for all we could want, then it is real and it is
permanent. No one and No thing can ever take your Good from you! No
set of circumstances can keep you from Allowing your own Good unless
that you believe this to be so. Your Good belongs to you and only you,
it can't be given to anyone else because they have their own Good that
is just for them. So why choose to do anything but Allow it into your
life in Abundance and with Joy? And if some reason you still feel some
resistance to Allowing your own Good and harnessing the power of our
own consciousness, here is a wonderful quotation that popped into my
inbox as I was writing this newsletter:
"Remember, we are all affecting the world every moment, whether we
mean to or not. Our actions and states of mind matter, because we are
so deeply interconnected with one another. Working on our own
consciousness is the most important thing that we are doing at any
moment, and being love is a supreme creative act." - Ram Dass
It seems to me that so often instead of looking for the Good in
something, we all tend to focus on the worst that can happen. So as
you are moving through your days and fear strikes, take a few moments
to ask yourself how God/Goddess/All That Is could use what ever you
are fearing to Bless you in Abundance. What is the best that could
come from it? How might you be able to use it as a sort of launching
pad to create something greater and more wonderful in your life? What
might be your Intuition be nudging you to do or even not do? Even if
you are feeling too fearful to ask any of these questions and come up
with any answers that leave you feeling peaceful, you can begin to
affirm to yourself that everything is okay, all is well in my world, I
am eternally Loved, Guided and Supported by Spirit Always and In All
Ways. I always know the right actions to take, I always know what to
do. There are many people who love me and can help me if I need it.
Somehow, it will all get sorted out, I just need to keep going and I
shall soon see that all is indeed well! Of course use what ever words
feel best to you and bring you the greatest sense of Peace and Well
Being. The more you can do this, the more the fear will diminish and
over time you shall find that all you have been affirming has indeed
become the Truth of your world.
As with the previous Blend of the Month there are 22 essences in this
blend so I shall not be listing them all here.
