Meditate on the Go

Discover what blocks you from creating your ideal life and 4 steps to create it

2011-07-13T17:04:00.000-07:00

Kerry came in to see me and was feeling very frustrated with her life. She wants so much to be married, to have children, and to enjoy other aspects of life that she has not yet been able to create for herself. She felt that even though she was taking actions, nothing was changing for her. As we talked it came out that Kerry hasn't created these opportunities because she holds blocks which are preventing her from doing so. She realized that for her marriage equaled a loss of freedom, or no freedom. Although she does desire to be married, she was also blocking it in order to preserve her sense of freedom.

We are all like Kerry at times and want something for our lives, yet block it for reasons we may not be conscious of. Here are 4 steps you can take in order to discover these blocks, understand why they exist, and remove them, enabling yourself to then create what they desire.

1. Get Clear: Begin by getting clear on the end result you are seeking. Clarity equals power, and if we do not have a clear idea of what we want then we do not allow ourselves the power to create it. It is essential that you get very clear on what it is you wish to create for yourself.

The Meditate on the Go Journal can assist you to do this

2. Discover the Blocks: Once you can see your ideal end result as a reality, begin asking yourself these questions.

-What negative aspects would come from achieving this ideal end result?

-Why hasn’t it worked out for you?

-What comes up as you think about this ideal?

-This could be yours but . . . (fill in the blank)

*Kerry could see her ideal partner, but realized that in her mind marriage equaled loss of freedom.

3. Create A Win List: As you become aware of why it is that you are blocking you dream, you can use a win list as a cognitive tool in order to help remove the obstacles and begin creating. Go to all the areas of your life and look at how what you want can bring positive results, especially in the areas where you are holding the blocks. Write these wins down and post them where they can be easily and regularly seen.

*For Kerry we talked about the ways marriage brings freedom to life. i.e. having a best friend to talk to all the time, getting to go on dates regularly, the financial support from two incomes, etc.

4. Add imagination: It is important to daydream in order to re-create your ideal end result. Using all your senses, create a visualization to feel the reality of what you want, see what it looks like, hear the sounds surrounding it, smell and taste the different aspects of it. You can then recall this visualization while doing dishes, jogging, showering, or any other task that leaves your mind free to dream. A great way to use Meditate on the Go! The Meditate on the Go journal is a great tool to help you succeed at this.

*As Kerry was describing her ideal to me I saw her pregnant and relaxed on a beautiful beach with her partner holding her. I helped her engage all of her senses to make the visualization very real for her.

You are now empowered to create whatever you desire! We all have the ability to create what we want in life, but many times it takes tools to understand what is blocking us from achieving our dreams. To learn more about this process and additional tools to use in order to have more peace, joy, and love in your life check out the schedule below to find an upcoming Awaken playshop.

At the end of our session I had Kerry pull four angel cards to tap into her spiritual team support. The cards were so powerful and right on track with what we had done that I copied them for her to take and post on her win board.

The next day I received this email from Kerry:

Hi Sandra,

Thank-you so much for such an AMAZING session yesterday--I am still in AWE over those angel cards! And they are on my desk, in my journal and on my vision board! (I made more copies of them when I got home!). I also released a lot more 'negative' energies this morning via the Emotion Code and I listed all the FREEDOMS I will enjoy when I am MARRIED! WOW! A lot more than I realized! Next step is to copy them and put them on my vision board too! Also daydreaming more...which compelled me to find this picture attached that is now on my vision board thanks to YOUR 'vision!'
Thank-you for yesterday--I needed the reminder and "tune-up!"

Love you tons!

The Power of Prayer

2011-04-01T13:39:00.000-07:00

Prayer is communion to Deity. There are many forms of prayer. I was taught at a very young age to pray in a specific religious manner. This created a beautiful foundation of sacred communion for me where I learned to receive answers by seeking. I was able to develop my spiritual ears in hearing messages of love about who I am.

This communion has now led me to a deeper understanding of how prayer works. I believe we are in sacred communion all the time with Deity. They are always listening through our thoughts and feelings. The Universe, God, Deity, our spiritual help are always responding. Whatever we are thinking and feeling is a prayer we are silently speaking. These thoughts and feelings are creating vibrational frequencies that are emitting from us. It is these vibrations that bring to us like vibrations. Therefore, if we are continually praying to get out of pain, our focus and vibration is on pain and that is what we will continue to receive. Not because God is punishing us by any means. We are powerful creators always creating with these vibrations and I believe God really wants us to understand this concept. It is the laws that we have co-created with God. That which we put out comes back to us. These laws of attraction are always in force.

Why aren’t my prayers answered?

As we learn how powerful we are in creating our lives, we can pray with an intention to receive that which we are putting out. Rather than ask God to bless our lives, we can thank God for blessing our lives. This way, we focus on the blessings we are already experiencing and this allows more blessings (like vibrations) to come in. As we learn to feel the gratitude, our prayer increases in their strength for us. The same holds true when we are feeling lack. Whatever we are thinking and feeling is what is brought back to us. This is why many of us don’t believe our prayers are being answered. We are praying for more abundance, yet we are feeling more lack at the same time. Your prayers are congruent with your feelings, thus creating more of that same feeling.

When praying for more abundance, bring in the feeling of abundance right now. It is truly a feeling you are seeking. Allow that feeling to be present now. Remember a time when you felt abundant before. We all have had the feeling at some point in our lives that we are currently seeking. At some point you have felt safe, secure and enough. Remember that feeling, give thanks to it and feel it now as you give gratitude to the abundance you now are experiencing.

Gregg Braden depicts this clearly in his book “The Lost Modes of Prayer.” He tells a story of a community seeking water during the time of a drought. The gentleman asked Gregg if he wanted to observe a prayer being answered. So Gregg followed the man up to the top of the mountain plateau where he simply took off his shoes and planted his bare feet into the dry red soil? The gentleman sat there with his eyes closed, face raised to the sky, with bliss on his face. After a few minutes of doing this, he said, “ok, let’s go.” I thought you were going to teach me the secrets of prayer.” Gregg said.

I did. I put my feet in the dirt and felt it turn into mud with the water splashing down from heaven on my face. That night, they experienced more rain than they had seen in months. Did his prayer work? He did hold a very strong vibration of gratitude for the rain which was not yet there. He smelt it, he felt it, he tasted it and he saw it in his mind’s eye. I believe he assisted in creating it.

Dr. Masaru Emoto’s book “Messages from Water,” depicts this concept well. Dr. Emoto discovered everything has a vibration or hado. Water is one of the four elements that responds to hado. He took pictures of water in its freezing state and was able to get a picture of the water in its crystal form. Dr. Emoto discovered that words or intentions had the ability to transform the water crystals dramatically.
“Humans are the only creatures that have the capacity to resonate with all other creatures and objects found in nature. We can give out energy and also receive energy in return. Our resonance has the power to affect literally everyone and everything around us. This is a double-edged sword. When people act out only on their own greed, they emit an energy that serves to destroy harmony within nature. This has led to lifestyles of mass consumption that seriously threaten our world. If people live in a constant state of love and gratitude towards themselves and all other beings, as well as to our water and our mother earth—they will resonate at a level that results in global healing. With the evolution of mankind, our consciousness has risen to such a level that we are now aware that we create our reality. It is time now for our species to make serious changes in the way we think, thus changing the frequency at which we resonate, and raising our vibrational level. Just imagine it, live it, and experience this truth within your own life. This is the essence of Hado.”

– adapted from "The Hidden Messages In Water" by Dr. Masaru Emoton

At this moment of time, Japan is experiencing major turmoil caused by a recent earthquake; tsunami and now the water at the reactors of Fukushima Nuclear Plants have started to leak, and are contaminating the ocean and air

What can we do? We can pray. We can hold the vibration of health and healing. We can send love to the water. Imagine the water as pure and clean flowing back into the ocean. Imagine it being so clear, clean and oxygenated that you can swim in it. Immerse your body in the refreshing pool of water, open your eyes and feel the healing power of the water surge through the cells of your body. Feel its tingling power give you a surge of love and energy and thank it for its healing powers.

The power of prayer cannot be underestimated. Here is a before and after picture Dr. Emoto took of contaminated water crystals and the same water after he blessed the water.

Our earth consists of 70% water ; what vibration do we send that water on a daily basis? Our bodies also consist of 70% water. What frequency do we resonate at and how is it affecting the water in our bodies? This water is feeding your cells and vital organs that keep your body alive. What messages do you send the water supplying your body?

What is Synchronicity?

2010-11-08T09:57:00.000-08:00

Synchronicity, as defined by Wikipedia, is when two or more events that are apparently causally unrelated occur together in a meaningful manner. To count as synchronicity, the events should be unlikely to occur together by chance.
Synchronicity occurs frequently in my life. Because I choose to live intentionally each day, (my Meditate on the Go Journal helps me do that) those things I think and feel come to me without a lot of effort. Actually this is true for everyone. It has been called the Laws of Attraction. Whatever you are thinking and feeling is creating a frequency that causes you to vibrate. Like frequencies are attracted just like magnets. It is happening all the time whether you believe it or not. Many times it happens to our detriment because most of what we think and feel is negative. Worry and fear about lack for example, will bring more lack. However the fact you are on this website tells me you are vibrating something within you that is seeking the information I have to impart. It is always my intention that as I learn, I impart the information freely to others. Last night I was flying home from Tennessee with my husband after a gift show, where we were exhibiting his invention. (Check out mysack.com) to see his product.
My 19 year old son, Cameron, is serving a mission for the LDS church. For those of you who don’t know, this is where he gives up 2 years of his life to serve and teach others about Jesus Christ and the LDS church. (You may have seen missionaries in your area, young men in suits and ties on bicycles or by foot teaching others). At the age of 19, this is an amazing sacrifice. He has no contact with us, his family except through email and letters. I’m very proud of him for making this decision to serve.
Anyway, his mission started 2 months ago. He has been in the Missionary Training Center learning Spanish since he will serve in Chile. Last night he was en-route to Chile and had a layover in the Dallas airport. The exact same time our layover from Tennessee to Salt Lake City occurred! He had emailed me his departure times, when I realized we would be in the Dallas airport at the same time. I went on line to find out which airline flew out at the times he mentioned. Low and behold it was our same airlines. I had the opportunity of spending 30 minutes with him last night! I couldn’t stop touching him.. Amazing, the power of synchronicity. I am grateful for it every day!
I believe it happened with my son and me because I think of him often, and he thinks of us, his family often. We landed at the airport in another state on Sunday night at 7:30 pm for thirty minutes at the same time. Two events, that are not likely to occur by chance at the same time, occur in a meaningful manner, synchronicity. I also believe my spiritual help had a lot to do with orchestrating the event. My mommy heart is full of gratitude for the experience, since it will be September of 2012 before I see him again. As you can see by my red nose, I express a lot of emotion. :)

Sandra,
I have often wondered about why things happen and what my role in them is. I see myself in situations where people I love walk away stronger, better, healthier, and I am left behind! If I could figure out why or what I am supposed to learn, it might not hurt so much.
Cathy

Dear Cathy:
Many times in situations you feel left behind, it is because of the judgment you are placing on the situation and yourself. The feelings of inadequacy and the lack you feel within is creating blocks from feeling love and comfort. Here are a few tips to try in these scenarios.

1. Remember, You are a spiritual being having human experiences. This means you are Infinite, Divine, Love and loved. You are on this planet experiencing up's and down's, pain and contrast to love. Why? For the journey of it. You are choosing and have chosen these experiences to give you more knowledge, understanding, compassion and insight about who you really are without these patterns. How could you know peace without pain, happiness without sorrow, joy without sadness. All of these emotions are part of being human.

2. The reason we choose this humanness is what I call "The Message of Love" which states that coming from a place of all knowing unconditional love, you chose these experiences and people in your life because you knew what a blessing they could could be in the end. The blessing of knowledge and experience you gain is too valuable to ever put a price on it.

3. Instead of "Why me?" ask "What Can I learn from this?" This question will give you more insight about the present situation and what information you wanted to gain from the experience, from your Divine space. Quiet your mind, Ask the question, then write whatever words, impressions or feelings come to you in your journal. If you are experiencing blocks to receiving answers download the 11 part audio, "Strengthening Your Intuitive Muscle" this has many exercises recorded from the live training, Intuitive Living, to remove spiritual blocks.

4. Whatever you become attached to on this planet, whether it be another person or an object, you will need to let go for your own personal spiritual growth. Attachment creates blocks to your Divine Self. When you are attached, you become needy and desperate on expectations that if not met, will create pain. This blocks your spiritual growth and at some point in your life, you will have the opportunity to let go of anything that creates attachment.

HINT: If the Universe is calling you to detach from someone or something, bless it, release it and move on. Here is a great statement I use. "I release you on your journey as I go on mine, thank you for the learning I received."

5. Reframe needs or attachments to preferences. A preference is a way of being that releases addictions from controlling you. "I prefer this outcome rather than need it. As a result, you will experience more peace, joy and love as every day experiences. That is what we came here to learn..
Congratulations Cathy for being bravely on your path and helping our readers..

When Heaven seem silent

2010-08-05T08:48:00.000-07:00

Many times prayers are not answered in the way we think they should be. Sometimes when life is painful, the heavens seem silent.

I remember feeling this during a particular time in my life when I was changing careers. I had received an answer to a prayer to pursue a particular business that in the end was not profitable.

I had partnered up with another individual doing consulting, leadership training and human development for businesses. We had been going door to door consulting with companies giving them bids for our trainings and coaching. We called our company, Momentum Leadership. We did several trainings throughout this four month period, but not enough to sustain an income for both of us. It was causing a lot of turmoil in my marriage. My husband said we could not afford me being away from home so much and not making a steady income. At that time, Momentum Leadership had a large bid out to provide a substantial amount of training and I said to God, if we don't get this contract, I have no choice but to stop doing this business that I had originally felt I inspired to do. When the contract did not come in, I was devastated. I was angry with God. "Why did you lead me down this path if in the end, I could not continue it due to lack of funds? Why did I trust? Do I not receive answers like I thought I did? Where did the answer to start Momentum Leadership come from in the first place? Was it not you? Was I deceived? Why is this happening?"

I was on the floor bawling, wondering if every other prayer that had been answered was also a fluke? Was God even real? I questioned all my beliefs and spiritual experiences. I went to bed emotionally drained, frustrated and not wanting to hear an answer ever again for the fear of being deceived. About 30 min. later Margie, a dear friend called me and said "I was just saying my prayers before going to bed and had a strong impression to call you and let you know God is aware of you and loves you. I don't know why but maybe you need to hear it." Sniffling, I told Margie of my experience of having to quit the business I loved and had felt inspired to start. She responded that although we don't have complete understanding of why things happen, there is a reason and lessons can always be learned from the experience. From our view point, we can't see the whole picture but more will be revealed as we continue to put our trust in God.

It was because of Momentum Leadership that I gained clarity in wanting to serve in the self-help field. I gained confidence doing trainings for businesses and saw the break-through individuals received as a result of our consulting. It was soon after that, that I began offering trainings in my home to small groups of individuals looking for personal development. I started seeing clients one on one offering "personal empowerment sessions" charging $30.00 an hour. I began attending more alternative healing modality trainings, learning about emotional pain and how to heal it. I became passionate on my journey and read every text I could get my hands on concerning the topic. Although fear overcame me many times and my career took many detours so that I could bring in enough money to sustain, I eventually became full time seeing clients and teaching. 9 years later, here I am, training others to do what I am most passionate about. AND NOW YOU KNOW THE REST OF THE STORY...

When the heavens seem silent or answers to prayers aren't what you thought was the ideal end result. Be patient, trust, watch and listen. There is more information to come for you that will be for your higher good.

Are you experiencing change and or pain in your life?

2010-06-20T22:09:00.000-07:00

The summer solstice is tomorrow morning. That means the earth's energy is changing. We are officially in a new season as of 5:30 am on June 21st. With each season, the earth goes through, frequency's or energy is also changing. I believe the earth is taking on a higher vibration. The planet is moving closer to Christ consciousness or that of unconditional love. With that higher vibration comes change for us. If you are experiencing change which can be painful, celebrate it. It is there to teach you a valuable lesson about who you are to bring you closer to unconditional love.

3 simple steps to move through change and or pain with grace and ease.
1. Instead of "Why me?" ask "What can I learn from this?"
2. See the Message of Love - which is who you are is a Divine Individual wanting to learn about this experience. Somewhere, sometime you agreed and even volunteered for this experience to learn more about the truth of who you are.
3. Quiet your mind to receive answers and journal those answers.

All of your experiences, especially the painful ones are designed to get your attention to discover more of the truth of who you are. Congratulations on moving more towards Christ Consciousness. If you are looking for more insight on this, feel free to email me.

Blessings,
Sandra

Lessons from our deceased loved ones

2010-05-27T23:44:00.000-07:00

Memorial Weekend is the time of the year to contemplate our loved ones who have crossed over. (scroll to the bottom of the page first so you can hear the songs I created to play for you while reading this article. The first is "There can be Miracles when you believe" It is my wish for you to receive miracles concerning your loved ones.)

Passing is a near and dear subject to me as I have experienced the loss of many I love. It seems that recently this subject has been more prevalent as I have received inquiries about loss and grieving.

It has always been a fascinating topic for me. Some of my most profound spiritual experiences have been feeling the presence of those relationships who are now in spirit form. I have learned much from them about the other side.

One who is near and dear to me is my husband's first wife, Julie, whom I have never met here in the physical. However, she is a very dear friend as she has been a tremendous influence in my life and my marriage. She has helped me as a mother and a wife; in many instances, she guides me with what to say and do. I feel her presence when I am with her children, my step-children and she teaches me how to love them unconditionally. She has also many times helped me see my husband from a more spiritual point of view when I have needed to understand him.
She taught me much about unconditional love. The first time I felt her presence brought so much love to me that I was humbly overwhelmed with tears of joy. She taught me that there is no such thing as the emotion of jealousy in this spirit realm where she resides. After feeling her presence, I could never feel jealous or anything but love for her. This has been a great blessing in my life, for as many of you know, when someone crosses over, they can be exalted and put on a pedestal, and being the second wife, I wondered if I could measure up. It was important for me to have the experiences with her that I did so that I would not feel inadequate coming into this family 14 years ago.

My Father's passing taught me that we can be loved and comforted with these loss relationships anytime we desire. We must learn to quiet the chatter in our minds so we can sense their presence and listen. One day when I was mourning my father's passing he came and reminded me that he is available anytime I need him, he let me know that time and space cannot separate us and he would be there for me. These relationships can actually be more available to us now than they were on earth as we come to understand this concept. Time and space does not have to separate us. From their new perception, they can understand us better by experiencing our point of view. There is not much room for mis-perceptions as there was when they were alive and communicating with us. They desire to reach us and speak to us. They're love for us comforts our grieving hearts. Ask to hear, feel, smell, and even receive their touch in a way that is possible for you.

If you are in deep pain with the loss of a loved one, you may need a grieving session where I take you through learning to access your loved one and commune with them. Together we transform the broken, empty space in your heart that their passing left and create a new relationship there so that you can experience them with love rather than pain.

I also have trained Life Coaches who can take you through this process if I am not available. Don't worry if you are not local, My life coaches and I see clients all over the world using a program called skype where you can see me and I can see you. http://www.awakenwithin.net/sessions.html

I have written an E-book, "Understanding Death of the Body" that is available when you sign up on my front page www.awakenwithin.net.

It will take you to a page of free stuff for you where you can find the E-book. If you have already signed up and don't have the link to the free stuff, you can email me and I will send it to you. Also on my website is an audio download on how to be more spiritually connected with your angels and deceased loved ones. It's an 11 part audio packed with A Lot of information for only $27.00 www.awakenwithin.net/shop-books.html.

It's my wish and desire that you connect with your loved ones in a way that heals your broken, grieving heart. My prayers are with you.

Happy Easter (click on link to Glenda Green, Artist's website)

2010-04-01T20:15:00.000-07:00

This weekend my heart is full of gratitude for Him. He is my Master, Teacher and Life Partner. It is because of Him that I do what I do. I celebrate this weekend as his birthday since it is the weekend that he is most celebrated and I believe it is not only his birth into immortality but also near his physical birth on the planet.

Yeshua, as I have come to know him taught me how to let go of attachments and turn all my pain over to him. He taught me how to trust, how to forgive and how to see others through His eyes. It was him who held my shaking body when I lost my first love. I was pleading in a heap on the floor with a broken heart begging God to take away the pain after my divorce. "Who would be there to love me and my 3 children?" I pleaded. The convulsions ceased as I felt his arms envelop me like a warm blanket "I LOVE YOU AND THAT'S ALL YOU'LL EVER NEED" A life-changing moment for me.

At the most painful moment in my life, giving up my children in a custody battle, He was there. He took each of my children when I laid them on the altar in my sacred meadow. It was at that time I purged my soul to him. Not knowing how I would survive without my 4, 6, and 8 yr. old living with me. My whole identity of who I thought I was as a mother was ripped out from under me. It was He who gave me a new IDENTITY. I was awakened to remember who I really am. It is this reason, I so desire others to have the same experience. This is how I came to be. We come to teach that which is our greatest challenge in overcoming.

I encourage you this weekend (Even if you are not Christian) to commune with Him. He is an Enlightened Being and He wants to be your life partner. Consider the possibility He wants you to see him as your equal and best friend. He wants you to see yourself through His eyes. Request this.. Your life will never be the same.

When I meditate with Him, this portrait is the man I see. My friend, Bob Nelson showed this painting of Him to me several years ago. When I saw it, I wept feeling his exquisite love. Of all his portraits, this one has hit home to me the most.
Glenda Green the talented artist tells her touching story here of how she came to paint him.
Spend some time checking out her site, she is incredibly gifted. Her story is beautiful. Take some time this weekend to meditate on His love for you. ASK Him who you are....

Come back to the love you are

2010-03-30T15:19:00.000-07:00

"What would create the most amount of healing in the shortest amount of time?" I have been asking this question since the beginning of 2010. "How can I - We get a message of hope, healing, peace and love to the world?"

The answer always comes back to love. Teach, show and be the love that you are. We are all love. Love is who you are and love is all you are. Everything else you are acting from is an illusion or an act coming from a place of need. Need to prove, need to get, need to have, .....need to try and be something because we believe we're not. This need or lack is born from the ego, who believes we are separated from that love and does everything it can to try to obtain the feeling of it. Yet it is already within you, me and everyone. AWAKENING IT is our journey here on planet earth.

What if you, I, we, the world really got this concept of love? What would the world be like? If you are reading this message, you are answering the call to come back to the love that you are. Congratulations! If you're wondering what that looks like, quiet your mind and ask. The answer is within you. "How can I be and act the love that I am?" This is your purpose here. To learn and teach this to others in a way that is unique only to you.

My own answer has come to instill that love in others through products and playshops. This year that is where my focus is. I have created a journal and a day planner that are designed to raise your vibration daily. (If you don't have these tools, get them today....) tools for your AWAKENING

Today I am creating music with my friend Ken Kruckenberg. Actually I am sitting here sending love and writing while we are in his studio and he is the one (with the angels) creating music. Ken is a very talented musician and light worker. (click on his name to see his website.) He created the music on Heather Macauley's cd 'The Silent Language of Peace' which I also highly recommend.

Spirit prompted me to request of Ken to create a musical cd to play in the background of your work and home environment to clear negative energies, raise vibration and create unconditional love. Karen is Ken's partner. She is a very talented Intuitive. She and I met this morning to create a sacred space for Ken. I was very honored to create a ritual with her.

I am so excited about this project! I want you all to be part of it because it is for you! Please send your love and intention for the music to transform you as you listen to it. Here is the actual email I sent to Ken and Karen. (Kelly and Jessica I refer to in the email are dear souls who have recently crossed over)

Watch for the music to be released soon! I will keep you posted.

Hi Ken and Karen,
I am blessed to know you both and work with you on this project. It could not be completed without either of you. There is a sense of urgency for this music to be created. I am humbled to play a part with such masters as you both. Ken, your gift is amazing and you have been chosen to use it to channel HIS LOVE. I know it will bless millions of lives on earth as well as many existences, including right now for Jessica and Kelly.

Karen Could you meet with me at 10 in the morning to cleanse the place?
This is very sacred work, and I will prepare myself as well through meditation, prayer and what I put in my body.
Please try to avoid harsh foods or chemicals in the next 24 hours.

Bless you both..
(Ken, know that you have elected to do this long ago. You have already created it in another existence. You will just be tapping into remembering it. )
Here is my intention for the music
• Ken is a clear channel of unconditional love
• The music transforms negative energies back to a state of wholeness
• The music is a vibrational match to whole and healthy chakras
• Each note is infused with God Source
• As each person hears, feels, experiences the music, their spirits are lifted to levels of compassion, understanding, forgiveness and transformation.
• The music will be played as background music in people’s homes to transform relationships, heartache, depression and pain
• Ultimately the music will be a conduit to acknowledge God Source as each individual gets who and what they are as being ONE with IT
• The more individuals listen to it, the more peace and joy they will experience as part of their reality

Lots of love to you both with many blessings for co-creating this…
I love you.

We had some AAAMAZING BREAKTHROUGHS! I don't think individuals realize when they come to training to learn a process, how much processing they themselves go through. There were several individuals who looked lighter and free'er (is that a word?) by the time training was over. I am so excited to see this group use their gifts and talents!

"Wow! What a weekend. Just wanted to thank all of you! It was great to get to know you. I feel I have come so far in such a short period of time. Where have you been all my life Sandy? Thanks for showing up for me. As I stepped into that prayer circle on Sunday, the emotions and tears just started. I had no control over them. Thank you all for helping me to heal this. Your love, prayers, and energy all connected with the power of God. Thank you Leslie for seeing the pink heart chakra and gold light chakra and Sandy for directing the healing. I was able to open my heart and see the love and healing."

Farewell to Michael

2009-06-28T08:32:00.000-07:00

This weekend we witnessed the tragic death of Michael Jackson. My heart is filled with sorrow as I watched this man emotionally struggle through life. He was the constant focus of the media because of his sometimes bizarre behavior. Yet I believe he was also one of the most misunderstood people.

His song "Have you Seen My Childhood" (playing right now on my play list at the bottom of the page) depicts a life of loneliness and pain.
"I'm searching for the world that I come from
Cause I've been looking around
In the lost and found of my heart...
No one understands me....
It's been my fate to compensate, for the Childhood I've never known...
Before you judge me, try hard to love me. The painful youth I've had."

This was an amazing talented human being who missed his childhood and I believe as a result constantly looked to find love for himself through other means. It's amazing that someone so popular with sold out audiences felt unloved. Yet our childhood programming is so powerful that it becomes our truth. His beliefs about not being loved and accepted became his truth and showed up throughout his life as he tried to become something he wasn't.

The world witnessed as he went from an attractive black young man to something mystical and eccentric as he looked for his true identity. On top of that he coped with his emotional pain with all kinds of medications detouring him from his true self.

Unfortunately he had a tragedy when approximately 25 years ago his hair caught on fire filming a Pepsi commercial. As a result he went on pain medications and became addicted.

These pain killers not only took care of the physical burn pain but also his emotional pain and became a way for him to cope with not feeling loved and accepted. It created a long addiction that fatally took a toll on his body.

It is my prayer that this pain can be transformed into lessons of love for his family and loved ones remaining and that he continues on his journey of learning who he truly is. We will miss you Michael.

What are your programmed limiting beliefs and how are they keeping you in pain? How do you cope with them? What self sabotage are you currently creating? This is just an awareness game for yourself and is the first step in transforming these beliefs.

Stay tuned for steps to transforming these limiting beliefs.

Love means forgiveness

2009-06-04T11:05:00.000-07:00

Kathy’s story

To truly love someone else, you must love yourself. It has taken me years to come to grips with that statement. All my life, I have looked to others to give me my happiness. I never knew how to love myself.

When you grow up being sexually abused by your father, who professes to love you, but tells you horrible lies and manipulates you so that his dirty little secret will not be discovered, how can you know what true love is?

You think daddy loves you, but deep down you know something is wrong. You internalize it and believe that there must be something wrong with you; not your daddy. This wonderful man kisses you, makes you feel good / bad, and promises you an ice cream cone if you're a good girl.

The little girl in me never knew what real love was or how to love at all for that matter. She was only confused. She grew up looking for love; looking for others to provide happiness for her. She couldn’t find it because she didn’t experience it within herself. Believing all along there is something dreadfully wrong with her; “Why can't I be normal like everyone else?” She painfully prayed over and over again.

I never had the foundation of self love to sustain me in life. I held onto all my limiting beliefs that told me I was powerless and worthless. They were the only identity I knew. They had become my best friend. It was the only thing consistent in my life. Self love was not possible for me as long as I was worthless.

These beliefs manifested through bursts of anger, repressed emotions, depression, anxiety, and then showed up physically in my body. It got to the point that my voice no longer worked. My trachea had literally created scar tissue for some unknown reason that prevented me from breathing and speaking very loud. All those years I felt I couldn’t speak up for myself created a literal physical manifestation of it.

My mother came to me five years ago in a dream. I asked her if my father had sexually abused me as a child. She told me only I could find the truth. I have been on a quest for the truth ever since. The truth is not only what happened to me as a child but a bigger question of “Who am I?”

My pain became overwhelming and I began searching for ways to clear it. At first I saw everyone else as the problem. I wondered how I would ever find joy and peace I so dearly wanted.

“Where is God? Why has he let me suffer so much? Did he abandon me? He should not let little children be used like this. I hate you God! I hate you daddy! I hate, I hate, I hate!”

But this hatred only eats my soul.

FORGIVE? How can I forgive? He'll get away with it! I did nothing wrong! My father needs punishment, not forgiveness.”

Then Sandra referred me to a book that opened my understanding to forgiveness. “The Shack,” by William Paul Young.

In the shack God is having a conversation with Mack concerning forgiveness. The words pierced my soul as I read:

“Forgiveness is first for you, the forgiver. To release you from something that will eat you alive, that will destroy your joy and your ability to love fully and openly. By forgiving, you release him from a burden that he carries whether he knows it or not- acknowledges it or not. When you choose to forgive another, you love him well.
I want to help you take on the nature that finds more power in love and forgiveness than hate.”

“But it feels like if I forgive this guy he gets off free. How do I excuse what he did”

“Forgiveness does not excuse anything. And believe me, the last thing this man is, is free. And you have no duty to justice in this. I will handle that. Allowing my presence in you is the only way true forgiveness is ever possible.”

“But does forgiveness require me to pretend it never happened?” I pleaded

“Will you ever forget what happened to you? I don't think so.

“So is it all right if I'm still angry?

“Absolutely! What he did was terrible. He caused incredible pain to many. It was wrong, and anger is the right response to something that is so wrong. But don't let the anger and pain prevent you from forgiving him.”

At that moment I knew that hating my father had kept me in bondage, not my father.

Then I heard, “Let go Kathy. Trust in me. Find the love I have for you; I never abandoned you. It's all about LOVE.”

I am now experiencing more peace in my life as I am forgiving my father. Even though he still denies it, I am able to forgive and free myself from the bonds of hatred that have held me down for so many years. Love has set me free.

Dreams are an amazing tool many of us don't use. Your dreams are a reflection of your inner and outer world. They represent your thoughts and feelings on what you believe and how you act. Even though they may seem ludicrous and far- fetched, there is meaning behind them.

They are a great measuring tool to check into subconscious beliefs you are operating from.

Dreams help you understand fears in life so you can better face them and move through them. They can also help you focus on your wins. The wins in your dream are telling you of what your subconscious believes is possible.

As you fall asleep at night set an intention to remember your dreams.

Your subconscious is the key to healing beliefs. Many beliefs you aren't even aware of. However, they will show up in your dreams. Pay Attention! Fears, nightmares, running from someone or something are all key elements of what needs attention in your life. When you are able to consciously look at what they represent, you have the ability to address the beliefs they relate to.

For example, when I get overwhelmed, I have dreams where I'm in my old career as a hairdresser/esthetician, I have clients lined up out the door and I know it's going to be all day before I can get to them. I have one in the chair processing, while another is in the middle of a haircut and I'm waxing eyebrows on even another. I am hurrying as fast as I can, I'm noticing the long line as I rip the wax off and I take off half her eyebrow! SCARY huh! Okay, so let's analyze.

These dreams occur when I am very busy trying to balance work life, writing a book, planning courses, educating myself, updating web information, taking care of a home, and being mom and wife. When my life is not balanced, my night dreams are not balanced and I am in overload in the dream.

The solution: Designate my time, use my planner to make lists and check them off as I do them so the chaos doesn't remain in my head when I fall asleep. Also learn to be completely in the present moment so I don't rip someone's eyebrow off! Ha/ha

Use your dreams to your advantage. Many times answers to life’s perplexing questions will be answered in your dream state. Ask one question before retiring to bed. “What’s the best way to heal the anxiety I’ve been having?” “How can I get along better with my teenage son?” “What’s the next step for me to go after my dreams?”

Many individuals can't remember dreams when starting out. Here are a few tips and tricks.

1. Tell yourself before falling asleep "I want to remember my dreams, help me to remember my dreams."

2. If you wake to an alarm, tell yourself to wake up 10 min. before your alarm goes off. Alarms are a sure killer of remembering a dream because they bring you to an awake state abruptly.

3. Wake up slowly, stay in la la land and stay as long as you can. (My favorite meditative state to be in) You will become skilled at doing this the more you practice. You will even learn to go in and out of the dream and control it. (This is called lucid dreaming, which is very beneficial to creating a life you want since you are telling the subconscious mind what you want.)

4. While in this dreamy state repeat the dream to yourself. "I am in the woods playing with horses," for example. As soon as your mind goes to the day's events the dream will leave you so stay present to it.

5. Keep your journal and pen by your bed side to record as soon as you wake up while the details are still fresh. You could even use a hand held recorder and write it later.

The Meditate on the Go journal has a section for your dreams. It has all the perfect questions to assist you in interpreting your dreams. Don't have a journal? You can get one here.

who/what is making choices

2008-12-22T09:17:00.000-08:00

My question has to do with who / what is actually making choices. This is a pretty deep question and I hope I can describe it so it is understandable. So there is an ego (or more than one) and our spirit. We have teachers, guides, angels etc...All of these entities talk to us, providing many many thoughts / ideas. Do you have any thoughts as to who / what makes the final choice. After all the input from the above mentioned sources (and then some)we purchase the blue one instead of the pink one, why? Some would say it doesn't matter, please understand, I'm not wrapped up at all about the colors in the example, just the process. I have recently come to realize / believe there are (or can be) multiple ego spirits that are here to assist us with specific challenges. The questions I pose to you relate to further understanding of how to embrace the ego(s) and move strongly toward following spirit input and not the other inputs mentioned above.

I am currently interested in finding out more about the choice process and who /what makes the actual choice given all the input from our many "voices". Free will prevails. Choice is very different when we are passionate about a certain something. Let me know if you have any thoughts or theories about how the final choice is made.

5 tips to Enjoy the Holidays during difficult times

2008-12-16T06:46:00.000-08:00

At times when money is short, jobs are hard to find, and stress and anxiety are on the rise, it may seem overwhelming to enjoy the holidays. We live in a time in the world that is very unique. The economy is dropping and many people are out of work. What can you do? How do you deal with the stress?

With all experiences in life, negative or positive, there is a gift. The gift is much easier to find during good times... but what is the gift, you may be asking, with what I am experiencing now? The gift is in the learning…

Here are some simple tips to receive the gifts available to you now.

1. Instead of asking “Why me?” ask “What can I learn from this experience?” Keep this prayer in your heart and seek answers. They will show up through various forms such as feelings, a thought that seems to come from nowhere, a conversation, a clip in a movie or on TV, through lyrics in a song, a book you may be drawn to, or even a random email . As you receive answers, write them down. Journal answers that come to you in the moment you receive them. Be present to the feelings of peace and love that come to you. (If you struggle with answers to prayers, the one-day "Intuitive Living" event is for you: check times and dates.)

2. Stay present to the moment. When you are in fear or worry, you are in the future. When you are in guilt and regret, you are in the past. These emotions are meant to last about two seconds; just long enough to notice them and choose what you would rather have. Keep bringing your thoughts to the right here, right now where you are warm, safe and dry.

3. Bring in feelings of gratitude for all that you do have and are experiencing right now. Gratitude lifts your spirits and the vibration that you are emitting to attract more of what you want rather than what you don’t want. Make a list of all that you are grateful for. Add to it daily. In the "Meditate on the Go Journal" there is a section to record gratitude on a daily basis (available here).

4. Dance to a new tune. Life’s experiences can bring about a lot of change we may not be accustomed to. "Dance to a new tune" means to celebrate life in all of its forms. Having a Christmas without gifts is a great way to experience Christmas in different ways. These ways don’t have to be bad, just different. In fact, you’ll find the most memorable holidays you have experienced were because of a feeling you remember, not because of something you received. Practice feeling the spirit of Christmas and the spirit of giving of yourself right now as you are reading this.

5. Give the gifts you can give. Give your time. Your time can be more valuable than any amount of money you give when the time you give is given from love. Hold love in your heart and visit those who are less fortunate then you. The homeless shelters are full of opportunities to share yourself with others. Visit those in retirement centers who don’t have family near them. Allow spirit to guide you as where to go and give freely.

Celebrate the season by dancing to a new tune! That tune can be created any way you wish. You are the creator! Choose to create love, gratitude and joy. You can feel it now! Take a few moments to be present to those words and feel them as I am sending them…

Happy Holidays!
Love and Light, Sandra

Business ideas just clicked

2008-11-28T12:52:00.000-08:00

Hi Sandra!

I love your new website. I've been thinking about you, and just started listening to your CD again, at night. I have yet to do my meditation on the go journal. I just wasn't ready at the time. Its taken me all of this time to get a grip. I've realized the only thing I can do, is to focus on what I want for myself, and learn to love myself. So thats what I'm putting all of my time and energy into. This will be a good time to begin using the journal.

My session with you was extremely helpful, and I hope to work with you again in the near future. The ideas or insight you had about my business just clicked last week and I am implementing them.

"I want to thank you for today. I've been seeing not only myself differently, but others as well. I am going to try hard to do the homework you gave me, and not give up just because I don't feel good at the moment.

I also want to just thank you in general for EVERYTHING you have done for me, and for caring and not giving up on me. I'm so grateful I met you. You give me hope when I am ready to give up."

Your Website

2008-11-26T15:18:00.000-08:00

"I have been having some emotional and physical problems lately and have been doing research about fasting because it came to me while meditating. In the course of my research I found information about life coaching versus counseling. I have tried the typical therapy and always felt worse when I left than I did when I arrived. Anyway I did a search for a life couch in my area and found your website.

I have got to tell you how I ended up picking you over the others as I have no idea what it means but feel I have to follow my gut that I should see you. When I got to your site I was perfectly calm, things had been bothering me but I had not broken down. When I found your site and started reading, I just started crying uncontrollably. I have no idea why as it was not what I was reading. It would get so bad that I couldn't even see to read so I would go onto one of the other websites I had found during my search, and I would calm down. Then I would go back to your site and it would start all over again. This happened perhaps 5 or 6 times. I am taking it that it means if I see you I will be able to release things, but I need to hurry before I end up in a mental hospital :^)"
