Feel Good Practice

8/27/2010

Ever have a dream at night, when you wondered in the middle of it whether or not you were dreaming?

Knowing that if you were "just" dreaming, you could rewrite the scary parts and enhance the happy parts: run faster, jump higher, laugh your head off; summon guides, travel through time, read minds; levitate, manifest, do the impossible?
But then, you thought to yourself, "No, this just can't be a dream, it's way too real."

Yeah, you're having one right now. Notice how dreams and your life are being created by you so fast, you barely notice that you're making it up as you go along!

Gosh you're good -

A simple practice for improving your experience in life,

1. Start each day remembering that we all want the same things (to be happy and be loved) and we are all connected to one another.

2. Spend 5 minutes breathing in, cherishing yourself; and, breathing out cherishing others. If you think about people you have difficulty cherishing, extend your love to them anyway.

3. During the day extend that attitude to everyone you meet. Practice cherishing even people you tend to look down upon or dislike in some way.

4. Continue this practice no matter what happens or what anyone does to you for 7 days and notice what happens to your life!

Two wolves

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on Inside people.

He said, "My son, the battle is between two "wolves" inside us all.
One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.

The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility,
kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."

The grandson thought about it for a minute, and then asked his grandfather: "Which wolf wins?"

The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."

Karma, manifesting abundance (the law of attraction)

8/12/2010

I want to take a look at the history of karma as it affects life experience and combine it with teachings of manifesting.

As a manifesting teacher and psychic reader I have come across many clients from the East and West have adopted a belief in karma.

Karma is central to the Hindu concept of reincarnation (death and rebirth) After a death a person’s soul or energy essence moves into a new body and is reborn. The soul could become a king, an animal or even a butterfly, where the soul goes is determined by karma – re the previous thoughts, words, and action of the person that the soul inhabited. So if their previous karma was good they will be reborn into a higher state of life. If the karma was bad the soul will inhabit a lower state.

Some clients believe they are doomed or fated to good or bad luck depending on karma which some believe to be divine in nature. So if a client comes to me with a belief in karma and are having a bad or series of bad experiences, they feel trapped or doomed to karma.

Yet the secret tells us we cause reality to bend according to our thought and feelings. Good vibe bad vibe kind of thing. This is similar to cause and effect, re the Hindu belief in karma. Both philosophies have to incorporate liberty for the person involved in order to make a balance.

Are you to blame for something unpleasant happening in your life? Or are you just responsible to make better choices in your present and leave your karma, history or ‘baggage’ behind in the past where it belongs? Perhaps a bit of both?

In Theta Healing we can take a look and resolve beliefs on all four levels. Core level, Genetic Level, History Level and Soul Level.

In plain terms if you suffer distrust this is due to experience or history, soul, genetic or core programming, therefore under your control to change. The trick is not to carry your baggage or karma into the rest of your life or believe you are always to be the victim of it, but to face it head on, address what needs balancing and feel free to access receiving and giving of joy.

Manifesting on purpose teaches people to encourage and amplify their ability to feel positive, it does not ask you to think positive 24/7. So much can be buried in the subconscious mind especially when people are afraid of feeling anything labelled ‘negative’. Use all thoughts and feelings in a constructive or positive way, including the so called negative ones. They are signs along the road of life.

SOUL MATE, PLAY MATE OR STALE MATE?

8/9/2010

When we look at the world of relationships there are many myths forming modern day perceptions of what a relationship should be like.

We have marriage, engagement, dating, relationships and friendships to put it in simplified boxes of comprehension. When it comes down to soul mates there are so many different views of what one is.

So let’s look at the origins of the term.

One theory of soul mates, presented by Aristophanes, in Plato’s symposium, states that humans were originally made of four arms, four legs and a head made up of two faces. Zeus, fearing humanity’s power, split them in half, thus condemning them to spend their lives looking for their other half.

This is not far off the spiritual basis of soul mates and twin flames. A soul mate can be anybody you feel affinity with. It can be someone you knew in a past life or someone you feel you knew the moment you met them. This person can be male or female. Some have soul mate platonic friendships with no physical attraction.
Some believe that were fated to play certain roles in each other’s lives and others that soul mates or twin flames are meant to be together.

The challenges arise when the idea of it’s ‘meant to be’ comes in. This idea that somehow a relationship is destined and therefore no matter the challenges it will work out is what tends to unglue people from dealing with issues and challenges arising in their relationships. Sure, you maybe destined to meet but what you do with each other tends to lay in the free will box. Yeah, we've all heard of that, free agency! You do not have to stay with someone because you feel they’re your soul mate if the relationship becomes destructive with no way that both partners want to change. You will however have chances to work things out with your partner when you have a basis of love, affinity, harmony and attraction.

In my life, I’ve met many soul mates of mine. (you can have a psychic reading combined with theta healing, to ask about yours) They’ve come in the form of friendships, relationships, dating partners and business partners. All have one thing in common, a sense I get of familiarity or knowing even when I’ve never met them before in this life.

A few years ago I organized a group workshop in my house, people were asked to bring food. I had been waiting for one particular participant to come whos’ voice I recognised from the first time we spoke on the phone. He arrived just as I was talking to a lady saying to her, where are you from, I’m sure I know you. She’d said I feel the same, but after tracing our entire lives we knew we’d never met before. As the man arrived he looked at me, walked straight into my kitchen and started to cook, everyone else had brought ready made food. This man and I started to speak and within minutes felt an overwhelming love, peace and ‘knowing’ and acknowledged it.

The lady, man and myself, never having met before, all became soul mate friends with a spiritual affinity beyond explanation.

One of the dangers of thinking whilst in a soul mate physical romantic relationship is that because it’s ‘meant to be’ it can be become overly intense or serious. Some of the fun can be taken out if you insist on ‘forever’ just because you feel ‘at home’ with your partner in the early days. There are some where we do feel just ‘fun’ and joy and naturally we want that to last forever, these I call ‘playmates’. They’re partners we date where the chemistry is fabulous and wild but not necessarily long lasting. However, they are valid, never a waste of time because they don’t last. The validity in this type of short lived playmate relationship is we get the unique input to PLAY. We remember that’s who we are, playful loving, exciting beings that relate in a fun way.

So many clients of mine believe a short lived fling or relationship is a waste of time, I say never. Some feel they waste their time if they are overly serious or suffering from a relationship that is going to end in an unhappy way. Even these teach us valuable lessons of who we are and how we relate to others, so again, never a waste of time.

This leads me onto stalemate relationships. Many have had an experience of that, where the relationship seems to get stuck in a pattern and very little pleasure. There are a number of reasons for that. You may find yourself waiting for your partner to change something in their lives, or simply waiting and hoping for change. These sorts of stale mate situations can be resolved IF both partners are equally willing to make the changes necessary to be together and communicate effectively with each other. What I call an irresolvable stalemate is normally when one partner does not want to communicate or put energy into the relationship. If this happens, and remains the same, invariably the relationship will end.

So, are you with one of your soul mates, playmates or in a stalemate? Remember, when asking or wishing for your partner to change, that can be one of the hardest things to do or acclimatize to. Changing old habits and patterns is all very well and good if YOU too are able to change your own behaviour.

We normally want our partners to change if we believe we’re right and they’re wrong, but that’s a whole other article! For now, wherever you are in the relationship area of your life, you can meet soul mates, at any age and can enjoy what you do have to the full. Enjoying your life even with its challenges is what magnetizes the right people at the right time to you. Your romantic compatible soul mate is normally a mirror of you. With Theta Healing you can learn to be happy with you, so your partner can be a celebration of love.

Only you can do it, and you can’t do it alone.

Only you can do it, and you can’t do it alone.
Cat and mouse true story.

This morning started out as usual. Yerba Mate Tea, checking e mails and then off for a walk with a friend through the gardens. It was a beautiful sunny fresh morning. We chatted, walked, looked at the flowers and laughed. I came home with nothing but the thoughts of a lovely breakfast, soft boiled eggs, delicious. Everything changed when I went to open my kitchen door.
I saw my cats entranced by something behind the door I’d opened.

Sneaking a peek I saw this tiny gorgeous little mouse behind the door, petrified for it’s life. As well it might be! Cute as they are (see pic) they’re lethal when they want to be. I kept the door jammed open but inaccessible to the cats (mouse hidden in corner behind door) and let what seemed like a tidal wave of thoughts move through my head in seconds.

All these thoughts rushed through my head at once. Literally at the speed of light, a jumble of different scenarios of what to do. First off came the ‘oh it’s just nature, don’t interfere’. Then came the mother instinct to the dear sweet mouse, shouldn’t I try and rescue it? As soon as I thought that, panic set it.

How on earth was I going to catch a mouse and keep it away from my cats at the same time. My head spun back to I can’t and it’s just nature, leave it alone. Thankfully the mouse’s cute face had stuck in my head and ashamed to say it, so had the idea of the ensuing mess that could happen. Entrails would be left all over my lovely carpet, gruesome I thought. Knowing my cats it occurred to me that they would torture the poor thing for hours and certainly this wasn’t ‘nature’ as they are a rather well fed pampered pair. They definitely didn’t need to eat this mouse.

I still had this thought of ‘I can’t’. Truth is I could if I had to, but so much easier and more fun with help! Finally I got the idea to get my friend who happens to be a neighbour and ask her to help. Oh there was a light bulb moment. Why is it we think we have to do things all alone? I just knew she’d be great, she’s an animal lover and has rescued other animals and birds in distress. She came in, somehow managed to bring with her a plant pot (handy that) and some card from the hallway to place under it. I got the cats right out and locked them in a room. She talked sweetly to the mouse and got it and took it to a safer place outside and into the lovely gardens.

So what do you do when you think something’s just natural? Is it just natural to hold onto beliefs of a lifetime because they have become part of you, or would you like to change them? I know only you can do it, and you can’t do it alone. Sometimes we just need a little helping hand with tricky beliefs and thoughts, just like I needed a hand with the mouse. At Theta Healing Academy we specialise in helping you change subconscious beliefs that have been holding you back from living the life you love. Check out our sessions page if you’d like some help.

Mirroring, if a dog can do it, so can you.

8/1/2010

Isn't it common knowledge that DOG owners are said to take after their pets- probably with good reason. It appears that dogs naturally copy human gestures in what is known as automatic imitation.

People subconsciously copy the gestures of others around them. An example, someone yawning will produce the observer yawning, and a person looking up encourages passers-by to do the exact same thing.

At the university of Vienna, Friederike Range and peers wanted to see whether dogs' actions, were influenced by humans around them. They trained dogs to open a sliding door with either their mouth or paw. One group of dogs were rewarded when they copied the same method as their trainers, another when they used a different method. The team found that the second group took more practice to get this task right. This suggests that dogs are subject to automatic imitation.

These findings support the concept that social animals automatically imitate others. It's food for thought. Watch out who you hang out with. You may just find yourself immitating them. Hang out with people who inspire and bring out the best in you and you in turn will do the same for them. Learning how to copy some of the happiest most successful people should be an easy task that even your pet dog can do.
