What’s The Easiest Way Out?

The fastest way to get to a new-and-improved situation is to make peace with your current situation.  – Abraham

escape

Most of us want to escape some aspect of our current lives. Some of us want more money. Some want the next best job. Many desire a much better relationship experience. Everyone wants to feel more secure and happy.

make peace with what is

We cannot escape that which we must face now. If we attempt to do that, no matter where we go or what we do we’ll feel the same level of insecurity. We must make full peace with what’s going on. Why do we need more money, why isn’t what we have enough? Why do we need that next job, what are we trying to get away from? And what do we really seek in our relationships, what’s missing in the current situation? Until we can face it now and be at peace with it, we’ll continue feeling unsettled.

How We Can Improve Our Health NOW!

Nothing else in your experience responds as quickly as your own physical body to your patterns of thought.Abraham

thoughts

The latest research is affirming the power of thoughts on our bodies. Why do married folk, as they age, start looking like each other? It’s probably because we constantly see each other. Why does medicine work differently for different people? Maybe because of our unique thinking patterns.

Think Yourself Well, an Economist Magazine article, shows how staying calm and positive will have a beneficial impact on the Vagus Nerve in the body which in turn can affect overall well-being. The study also shows how meditation plays a major role in supporting overall health.

healthy!

Even scientists are now starting to understand why our thoughts are so important. Will we learn and use our most effective tool in ways that supports us rather than hurts us?

How To End The Masquerade!

A person begins earnest work on himself when first sensing he is not who he imagines he is. The end of the masquerade is the start of peace.Vernon Howard

the big game

We all play a game. We project a self that’s not real. We employ various accouterments to support this masquerade. We might speak for effect or do certain things to get noticed. We’re even adept at fooling our own selves. It becomes a very intricate and long running game. It’s almost impossible to see what we’re doing.

observe self

We become privy to this elaborate masquerade when we decide to observe self. Slowly the stories we tell self become more clear. We recognize why we do things to impress others, we realize what lies we tell self to feel better, we understand how we label others so that we can be justified. It all starts to fall apart. And it must if we are to be at peace.

What Are The 3 Commandments?

To live without judgment, to give without expecting and to love for no reason…The Universe

the ‘trifecta’

Living without judgment seems impossible. Heck we can’t stop judging our own selves let alone others! Giving without expecting is another seeming impossibility! Why can’t we just focus on self? Loving for no reason, you must be kidding, after all that they did to me??

sainthood

Yes the goal is to become saints. Why, you might ask? Because in the short and the long run saints are happier than mere mortals. Don’t we want to be full of joy and happiness?

Why We Matter More Than We Know…

Every cell, every human being, is of equal importance and has work to do in this world.Peace Pilgrim

self-esteem

If all self-esteem issues would disappear we would have world peace! Self-esteem is the main cause for all conflict. We want to control others so that they do what we want them to do so that we feel better and important. The world is all about us, where we came from, what we perceive and what we would like to see happen…

we matter

We matter more than we can realize. We matter to God, which is why he made us universally unique. God loves us. We matter to the Universe because without variety life would be boring. We are not boring. And we matter to Life because it would be incomplete without us. We complete everything. Once we realize this we have our work cut out for us…
