Day 5

Sorta taking the day off from the blog...meditated last night after my class...had a rough drive...but came home and sat in peace.  Learned alot of things that just confirmed i'm headed in the right direction.  Thank you Spirit for showing me that what i'm doing is in my highest good.  Grateful for the clarity and right vision!  I love you!

Happy Saturday...

Day 4

Here we are again.  I feel happy, loved, and ready for everything that is coming my way.  Sometimes I wonder if me tracking this meditation challenge that we are undertaking is too much, but then i think its me just putting myself into that negative space.  So onward and upward, yes? : )

Last night i again had my alter ready...lit my candles, earth, water, fire..and me...still 10 minutes and it seemed to go a lil longer than the last time, but not to worry because i showed up and thats what counts! 

I do believe that the more i continue this process the more I'm available for the great feelings that have shown up.  There are moments when i feel sad about a certain situation, but in those moments I remind myself that there is a reason things ended the way they did and I accept it. 

Here's where I am today:  God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things i can, and the wisdom to know the difference. 

Anyhoo, someone said to me recently, "Change is coming, you just better be sure you're ready for it."  Well, change....here i am and i'm ready!!!

Repost (Sort of) of my List of Intentions

Going to repost this - and update as some of this has been provided:


Dear God &Spiritual Team, I ask that you provide my List of Intentions for my highest good:

Thank you for the opportunityof the entrepreneurial opportunity.
I'm so happy that it is not stressful, but fun, and i dont feel like its a 9 - 5 mentality, I am creating my own hours and destiny, i'm out and about and not stuck behind a desk and can charge an amount and feel good about it because i am worth it.

Thank you for the many growth opportunities you have provided.  Continue to send me learning opportunites and i remain happy and grateful!

Thank you for the gift of a loan modification which allowed me to buy my photography supplies.

Thank you for the gift of photography, and that it is bringing me abundance, financial relief and freedom!

Thank you for reinventing my blog that I know will touch many people and allow me to be a teacher to someone.  It helps me as well to learn so much so that they too will feel the joy and peace i know.

For the gift of clarity and clear intuition.  For the new friends i've recently met that help me on this path!

I create my to do list and am able to take care of those things.

That i am receiving money for all necessary expenditures.

Money flows easily to me.

I am able to remodel my home.

Thank you for the loving, supportive relationship that supports me in ALL areas of my life and is fully accepting of who I am.

I am able to attend any and all workshops, networking and coaching events without worrying about the cost.

I am able to provide the structure and discipline Jalen needs for these next 4 years in high school.

That love continues to surround me and my family.

I thank you and blessing rain down upon us!!

Gregg Braden - The Science of Miracles (5/7)

So I watched this video on China Brooks blog and thought it was so inspiring on how to pray that I thought, "Why not share this?"  The more that people view this, the more we can change how we pray and in turn maybe make some great changes to this earth and our lives....Am I looking at it in too big of terms? I think not!  Good day loves!

Day 3

Good Morning! Here i am..back!  Nothing exciting to report.  Yes, i did meditate, but in my mind i've cheated.  Yesterday I had a Reiki Healing session and i had a very short meditation period prior to the start of the healing.  So....there it is...

The healing session was sort of another part of meditation.  It was very powerful in that I felt my body doing some very different things while she was chanting and doing the signs, and touching me.  I also feel some relief in my back where i had lots and lots of tension.  I tried to shoo away my skeptical self cuz it always shows up.  Boy can i always count on her to bring in some doubt (when i really dont want it).  But I asked and intended for clarity with the Reiki session.  I feel like i'm definitely on the right path, but there are moments when i question decisions i've made. 

Anyway...I'll meditate again tonight the way i did the other night.  I think i liked that much better.  ND, Jah...hows it going...

Think i'm going to see if i can get china brooks to follow me and chime in on our goings on...OH...I think starting next week i'm going to take a break from twitter/facebook.  YIKES...wish me luck!

Smooches

Day 2 - Meditation Challenge

GOOOOOD Mooorrrnning Lovlies!

Day 2 of the meditation challenge!  This time I did something different.  I went in my back room that has my computer and files in it, but it also has a lil alter space where i have candles and stone, a vision board, and my 72 Names of God...So I went outside and filled a ceramic bowl with some dirt, brought some water into the room, lit my candles, set my timer and there we go!  This time was much more peaceful.  I prayed, and payed attention to my breath.  I allowed whatever thoughts to come in to come and didnt judge them.  10 minutes passed in no time.  Once the timer went off I got on my knees and prayed someone.  Thanked God/Spirit/Universe/Holy one for all of my blessings (and there are many) and all of the beautiful angels in my life (Hi ND & Jah).  Wella!  It was great...felt like i was floating after that.  (I meant to light my sage prior to starting, but i forgot.  I'll do it tonight)  So that was my experience.

What i enjoyed about this experience is that even after that i was motivated to write in my journal and study/read my A Course in Miracles book.  I am totally in a new space around my spirituality.  One day at a time to a different way of being.  Not that there arent days that might be a lil rougher than others, but there is always something to smile about...

ND reports that things are going great for her and Jah is going to ramp up to an hour.  Sorta makes me feel like my lil 10 minutes is too lil, but I gotta do it my way and not judge myself, right?  So happy we're doing this together!  Love you Ladies!!!!

I had a nice dream too!  Happy Wednesday rain (ick) and all!!!

Day 1

Good Morning!  Day 1 of the meditation challenge went...well it went.  Ha!  So i did my meditation last night and was completely distracted by Jalen, Max and any other noise that could be heard.  10 minutes seemed like 20 minutes.  I think my first mistake was that i did it in the living room.  Although i thought it was safe because i was by my candles...NOPE!  I checked twice to see how long had it been, maybe i didnt actually turn my timer on, or did i do it right...it has to be past 10 minutes.  Opened eyes, a lil over 4 minutes to go.  Ok, close eyes, breathe, pay attention to my breath, focus on the middle of my forehead...sit tall....dear God how long has it been...it has to be longer than 4 minutes...dont check Diane, dont check, just be patient...I open my eyes and check 54 seconds left. 
So while i was a lil disappointed with myself for checking and being completely distracted, I chose to let it go.  Not beat myself up for all of those things because guess what - I sat there and meditated.  So I choose to focus on what i did.  Not what I didnt do.  For me it really goes hand in hand with staying away from negative thoughts, radio, tv, words etc.  Now i'm in the process of changing my life and i'm going to embrace every step of the way!!! No matter what!

Good day, God Bless, Peace and Harmony and most of all LOVE to you all!  Lets make it happen!!!
