The True Power of Meditation

You may have different ideas of why you should
meditate, but I'd like to share what I see is the
biggest benefit. In meditation, you still your mind.
It becomes quiet...

Think of the last time your mind was racing with
unstoppable thoughts... Maybe it's like that right
now! I know for most people, having constant
thoughts is normal. I know what that's like, it was
normal for me too a few years ago.

But it's not like that for me anymore, in fact, as
soon as my mind gets into this "over-thinking"
mode, I immediately feel drained and my energy
goes way down.

So what does this mean to you?

If you find that you are constantly thinking, you
are only able to access and feel a very limited
amount of energy.

If I could show you how much more energy you
would have if you were able to quiet your mind
even for a small amount of time each day, you
would be amazed!

Because what happens when you quiet your mind
is that your Spirit begins to shine through you.
Your Higher Self or your Divinity becomes present.

So you not only have more energy, you also have
access to an infinite wisdom, creativity and even
love.

That's why I believe meditation is beneficial. You
stop allowing your mind to constantly be in control,
you open to your more expanded, wise and loving
self to come through.

And this can open your life up in ways your mind
could never imagine... I know this has been true
in my life.

Had I left my mind in charge, there's no way I'd
be sharing my true passion through Intuitions.
I’d still be in my old engineering career, filled
with doubts, fears and uncertainty. Knowing at
a deep level what I always wanted, but not
knowing how I could actually make it happen.
It took inspiration, energy, opening to possibilities,
letting go of fear, allowing transformation within...

None of this could have happened had I let my mind
stay in charge. I had to open to a greater wisdom, to
a greater consciousness.

So try it for yourself, for the purpose of accessing
the more amazing, infinite, creative, loving self that
you really are, to open your life in wonderful ways
you can't yet imagine.

Another important point is that it is not how long you
can meditate for, it's that YOU CAN STOP your
thoughts. That's all. That you can consciously stop your
mind from it's crazy, non-stop, exhausting thinking...
and open to peace, energy, vitality, inspiration, creativity,
wisdom, and clarity. In just a moment.

Try it now, close your eyes, focus your attention within
your body and allow yourself to relax and allow the
thoughts of your day to just slip away. Focus on your
breath, just watch it, feel it.

Why?

So you are focusing on something which allows your
thoughts to stop.

If you have a hard time with that one, try a guided
meditation. In guided meditations, you are focusing
on the words so you are still stopping your thoughts,
which is the point...

I talked a bit more about this in my Heart's Wisdom
Audio Recording. How to get out of your mind, be more
present, and more than that... fully enjoy the moments
in your life now. There is a guided meditation audio from
the teleclass that you can also use... Click here to find out
more.

Either way, begin today, even if it is for short periods
of time. Even if it is for 30 seconds, the point is why
you're doing it and that you are doing it. It's not about
performance, it's about allowing your amazing Spirit
to shine through you and into your life. Opening your
mind and energy to the wonderful possibilities for your
life.

Move Beyond those Old Stories...

I've got a quick little revealing test for you...

I want you to right now list on a piece of paper or
simply in your mind, what are the reasons you aren't
able to live your dream yet.

List as many reasons come to mind.

Now I want you to put at the top of the paper: My Stories.

What you've just written out are the stories you have
created that you believe in.

By believing in these stories, you are making them
reality. They areliterally standing inbetween you
and your dreams,preventing their manifestation.

It's what you tell yourself to justify where you are and
why you're not where you want to be.

You may recognize yourself stuck in your story when
you say any of these:

I can't have that because...
It wouldn't work because...
I could only have that if I...

What follows is a "story" of why you can't have what
you want. Although it may appear to be reality to you,
what it really is is a story. It doesn't have to be true, but
when it is true in your mind, you actually continue to
attract it as your reality so it it's what you'll see in your
reality, where it becomes true.

How can you start to let go of these stories?

You just did the first step, you are now AWARE of what
they are! It's harder to change something if you don't even
know what it is.

What next?

How about a little unlimited thinking on those stories you
just gave.

For example: Maybe one story you had was: "I can't do
what I love because I don't have the education".

This is just a story.

Let's take the limits off of that thinking... Subtly, easily,
and believably.

Begin to challenge this, see it from a bigger perspective, begin
to doubt your story!

Expand your thinking, for example:

- Maybe there is a way to do what I love without having the
education I thought I needed.
- If I do need the education, maybe there is a way for me to
get it that is easy to fit into my lifestyle. (I can't go to school
because it's too expensive... OOPS! another story!)
- Okay, maybe the Universe has a way for me to go back to
school, having it easily paid for (a way I don't know yet!).
- Or maybe there is something even more amazing I can do
right now to create this new career...

Whatever you can do to take those imaginary limits off will
help to begin to make possible what you were literally blocking
from coming into your life with those old stories.

Your "logic" that was so precious to you growing up and
fitting in to this world can actually be a huge limitation
and block to any new experiences and especially to the
big dreams you have that are close to your heart.

Start now to begin to lift those limits off!

But what about the stories that are so engrained in us that
no matter what we do to change our thinking, they seem to
never go away...

This is what I call a pattern. It is a way of thinking, a way
of being that is an unconscious thing. It is so normal to you
that it is hard to see another way of being.

But it is costing you because the pattern (old story you probably
don't remember anymore, turned into a repetitive pattern in
your life) is shaping your life and what is possible for you to have,
to attract, to receive into your life.

What I have found and been so passionate about developing
is ways to use your own energy, awareness, intuition and
intention to let go of these kinds of blocks. If you want to
end some of the old stories and patternse, EASILY and
QUICKLY, even on your own, you may want to attend my
teleclass coming up on September 27th... You'll even receive
it at my special Mailing List/Blog Subscriber price (until Friday only!).

I have been pretty busy working on my teleclass

passionate topics: releasing old patterns that
hold you back from creating and living your
most amazing life.

I get excited every time I help a client with a shift
from anold pattern or energy, because I know the
power of it, it's exciting for me because I know it
will have an amazing impact on what that client
will be able to attract in their lives after shifting
the energy, I've seen it over and over...

That's why I'm so happy to be sharing with you a
way to do this on your own in my next teleclass
!

It's now available as an audio recording, click here

Funny thing though, as a coach and teacher you
have to live what you teach...

So for the last few days, I've been faced with
frustrating old patterns of my own, right in my face!

All so I can use the material I'll be teaching for myself
so it's fresh in my mind for the call, but I think also so
I can remember the true value of this work.

stuck to feeling free and passionate about your dreams
