August 2010 Newsletter
Hello Everyone; Talk about hot. I took a vacation to Florida just so I could get away from the heat in Memphis; there is always a breeze down here along the ocean. In my travels to different cities doing workshops and classes, I found a common thread these days about people having to make hard choices do to the fact of wanting to grow and change in consciousness. A meditation teacher I have worked with for many years has stated many times that the path of self discovery does not get easier just because you want to evolve. This is …

Hello Everyone; How is life treating you, as one of my teachers said to a student one day. The student began to respond with all the normal stuff going on in his life. Then the teacher said to him how are you treating life? What a profound statement if you think about it. We tend to blame everything outside of us as the reason we feel a certain way. It is us that cause ourselves to feel how we feel. The responsibility on how we feel is always on us and not some outside circumstance. Everyone has a life situation. …

Hello Everyone; I am ready for spring! It’s like awakening to the best of what life has to offer, the likes of Daffodil’s blooming, deep blue skies, children playing in the yard again. Everything awakening from its deep sleep. Everyone wants to do their best. Lose weight, take up yoga, meditate, plant a garden, new relationships. Something in the air at spring makes the sap run again, excites our spirit and gets our juices flowing. From all of that our creativity begins to bloom. Write that book you have been thinking about, volunteer at the nearby health center. Surround your …

Hello, Everyone; Seems like every highly conscious speaker I hear or read about these days is talking about how things are speeding up. Well, I tell ya, if they increase any more a lot of us are going to go flying off into outer space somewhere! Does that mean it’s important to stay grounded? You betcha! Keep those feet planted squarely beneath you. You cannot deal with life in a practical manner if you fly off into Never- Never Land. Stay connected and solid in your body, breathe past the pain that you are dealing with, go beyond the pain. …

Hello Everyone, The weather is crazy: snow & sledding one week, shorts & planting a garden the next! As we move into the next phase of planetary change, everything we know will be turned upside down for review. Where we place our priorities is the question — is our focus toward the external, or do we search within? This “inside stuff” is somewhat difficult for most of us; we are simply not accustomed to this inner-self focus … and there doesn’t seem to be much going on when we do! No three-ring circus to capture our attention — just YOU. …

SEASON’S GREETINGS; For most people, looking back on 2008 is not much fun. My 401 K turned into a 201 K. My house value has plummeted. People are out of work and scraping to get by. We say to ourselves, “why now? why me?” The more we are attached to material things the greater the pain; this is, of course the universe’s great joke on us -what seems real is most often only an illusion. The more we are attached to things outside ourselves to bring us a sense of comfort and to feel good, the more we are fooling …

Hello Everyone; Talk about being in some weird times in our lives. The stock market seems out of sorts, prices are skyrocketing at the pumps and food market. If there was ever a time to stay calm and centered it is now. When everything seems to be caving in on us we must stay centered to get through this time in our lives. Prayer and meditation can do it for you if you just give it chance. Everything in the outer world changes, everything . Everything in this world will come to an end. The one thing that remains constant …
