St. Teresa’s Prayer…

May today there be peace within
May you trust your highest power
that you are exactly where you are meant to be….

May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith
May you use those gifts that you have received,
and pass on the love that has been given to you….
May you be content knowing you are a child of God….
Let this presence settle into our bones, and allow your
soul the freedom to sing, dance, and to bask in the sun….
It is there for each and every one of you….

– Prayer of St. Teresa

daily

Daily we must remind ourselves of the Truth in this prayer. May we never suffer, never fear and always feel the love that God has for us…

affirmations

Today I AM settling this prayer into my ‘bones’. I know I AM a child of God. I AM safe and I AM loved.

How To Be A Positive Person…

Be a light, not a judge. Be a model, not a critic. Be part of the solution, not part of the problem. – Stephen R. Covey (Seven Habits of Highly Effective People)

positivity

Positivity will always win. The Universe is constantly getting better whether we realize it or not. It’s a law of nature, call it evolution or whatever. We must be part of the equation that heals, serves and makes the planet a better place.

affirmations

Today I AM a better person. I see the positive in everyone and everything. I swim with the rising tide and know that I AM being carried upward…

How To Be A True Master…

True mastery can be gained by letting things go their own way. – Lao-tse

shine!

Lao-tse, the father of Tao, is pointing to how our lack of reaction to events can help us master them! There are 2 essential ways to react to any event. One is to attach to an event via your thoughts (and emotions), get drawn in and in turn possibly regret our reaction later.

The other is to view the event as an observer, without identifying our personality and history with the event. In this situation we’re observing without manufacturing thoughts about the situation. We’re just being, just listening, just flowing with what’s going on.

That in turn allows us to be the master of that event. We control our reaction to any situation, which means that we control our own happiness! As we do this with every event in life we begin to flow with life, a happy unperturbed camper at all times!

affirmations

Today I AM the master. I don’t attach to events, I just observe them. I can handle any situation. I AM a child of God. All is well!

How To Make A Life…

True masters are those who have chosen to make a life, rather than a living.  – Neale Donald Walsch

master

On what topic do we spend most of our thoughts, daily? The whole idea of material progress was to effect more leisure time so that we could do things and think about things that really matter.

Why hasn’t that happened for most of us? How does one make a life out of all that we do?

  • What’s truly most important to us?
  • How much are we being rather than doing?

affirmations

Today I AM ruminating on what’s real and lasting. I AM a child of God. I matter and I AM enough. Which is why I use time maturely. I AM a master of my own life.

How To Be Free…

The conscious mind knows the secret of living impersonally.  – Vernon Howard

impersonal

The whole world doesn’t revolve around us. When someone says something or appears to mean a certain thing, it’s not aimed at us! And what if it is?

Once we get that, we’re free. We couldn’t care less about what the whole world thinks. We’re still a loving and caring individual of course, but we’re not unduly affected by others.

A conscious mind is one that’s aware of where our thoughts come from and what they lead to. We are then conscious of all our reactions to events. Our reactions to or lack thereof determine how peaceful one can be.

When we don’t think that the whole world or others are conspiring against us, we can be at ease. And that’s the goal. Once we’re at ease we’re a more effective human being in all arenas of life!

affirmations

Today I AM free because I know the world doesn’t revolve around me. I AM important and enough just as I AM. I live consciously and know which thoughts I create. I know how my thoughts affect me. I AM a master.

Why We Must Shine!

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant,
gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously
give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.

– Marianne Williamson

shine!

Let’s liberate ourselves, get rid of all fear, get emboldened, let the light shine through, flower into the beauty and genius that we are, jump off and fly!!!!!!!!!!!

affirmations

Today I AM acting like the child of God I AM! There’s no holding me back. I AM shining, loving, forgiving, acting and flying! Look out world, here I AM!
