Real Deal Meditation: Changing Lanes


Changing Lanes

In my last post, Looking Out the Rear-View Mirror, I talked about not trying to live in the past when you need to move forward with an illness.  It’s a challenge to move forward with illness because nothing is working in your life. The habits that you once had don’t work anymore.  Past thoughts, habits, stressors and beliefs of yourself might be making you more sick.  The people in your life who give you direction might be completely wrong. They too could be making you more sick.

When this was happening to me it felt like I was in the middle of the road with no place to go.  It was not easy. I felt like I had no direction, no past, no future. I was full of fear of the unknowns.  If you are feeling this way, this is when you need to start moving. Whether right or wrong, soon you will get feedback.  If it is wrong, you will feel worse. If it is right you will see signs saying it’s right.  The worst is standing still.

I know you want to reach your hand out and say “help me” at this time. However, to find your own way is where your true power is going to come from. Truly, you need to find your own direction. People have already led you down their roads. It’s now time to change lanes and find your way to your own cure.

We are meant to be powerful on our own and then share it with others.  We are not meant to get power from others so we can feel powerful ourselves; that is fake power and can be stripped away.  Change lanes.

Real Deal Meditation: New Year Again


 New Year Again

We have come upon a new year again, how exciting!  I am looking at making some changes.  I just wrote up a new class about working on changing your subconscious mind.  In my mind’s eye I am creating my vision that my book goes to the four corners of the world and helps a lot of people.  I am seeing, in my visualization, that I am creating part of people’s healthcare by teaching them to use their own minds to heal their bodies.

I am seeing that large corporations are giving back to the world’s people.  I see governments working for their people; providing all with food, safe and healthy living conditions, education and religious freedom. I am also picturing the world’s people giving religious freedom to each other.

So what are you changing? What are you visualizing?  What do you want to see?

Real Deal Meditation: Living in a Fog


Living in a Fog

With learning to observe my thoughts I also learned to see the fog around me in my own life and in our culture.

I see a lot of fog with the government. I see how it disguises its ineptness to truly run this country.  The saddest part is that government leaders are in a fog thinking that this is how politicians work and how government is run. We are all in the fog thinking that we have no power to change government or that the government  is a separate entity from we the people of the United States.

Our government is the face that we show the world.  Is the face that we are showing now what you think it should be?

Look at the programs on television. Are they the fog makers? Have you really looked at what is on now?  It’s mostly garbage.  Reality shows portray unrealistic lifestyles or people who are paid to air their “dysfunction” on television as entertainment. Is that entertainment?  Are violence and sex the only types of shows that get good ratings?  Why are we desensitizing ourselves?  Children’s programming teaches kids how to count and say their ABC’s but then encourages kids to ask their parents for this toy or that toy by filling the spaces with ads.

Some of our food is dangerous. The government decides which foods are sold in the market place and what is deemed safe and that is the biggest joke of all.  We get messages about how overweight the country is but look at the state of food that is sold in the United States. The FDA is walking a fine line between money and nutrition.  And the fact is, if we are addicted to sugary foods, we’ll buy more. I believe we are going to see the life expectancy start to go down because of some of the food the FDA is telling us is safe.

Every few years the retirement age goes up but the number of jobs is going down.  To compete with foreign factories, modern companies have learned to automate and that means fewer workers doing more production.  As a worker you ask yourself, how can we keep an older worker working?  The older worker has more health issues than a younger worker.  When I am sixty five or seventy am I going to get fired because I can’t produce what a younger person can produce?  Yes, we have strict laws today against age discrimination but ultimately I am saying, why raise the retirement age and burden a company that is already having a tough time competing with foreign companies?

I know with all these questions we get the answers: “it’s too complicated for you to understand” or “there is no money.”  Well I guess I forgot that the government works for itself right now and it has us by the short hairs. And, who are we  anyway? Just their constituents.  Who are we after the government fogs us in with some big distraction and tells us how they are working hard for us and promises us the world during election time?  I sometimes think they make problems so they can tell us they are going to fix them at election time.

We are living in a fog thinking anything is going to improve waiting for government to change. We have to make the change. Government likes it the way it is.  Government loves making money off our backs.  Why don’t they have the same healthcare we do?  Trust me they are not eating what we are eating.   Their kids don’t go to school with any inner city kids or at a rural school system with no funding.  There are no heroes in government right now; just fog horns.

Real Deal Meditation: Tapping into the Universe


Tapping into the Universe

I offered a recent meditation to my class that I thought was pretty good and I want to share it with you. The visualization that I shared with everyone was about giving themselves permission to be the universe.  I asked them to give themselves permission to let go of what they think is holding them back from being the universe.

I asked them to drop the shoulds, woulds, and coulds.  I asked them to let go of thoughts of what they have done and what they have skills at and what they don’t.  I asked them to let go of how they look; their race, creed, color or size. I told them to leave their beliefs and just be open to the present moment. I told them to let go of their body, except their breath.

I asked them to see a blade of grass in their mind’s eye and gently pinch it between two of their fingers.  I went on suggesting they choose to feel the exchange of energy between themselves and the blade of grass.  I told them to feel the roots and the soil and the surrounding area.  I suggested going deep into the earth, creating their own roots and feeling the center, feeling the center of themselves.

Then gently I asked them to come back to the breath and the roots that we created to the center of the earth.  We sent healing thought and our intention for a better world for all down to the center of the earth.  The energy in the room changed. It became hope, love, and permission.

I am writing all this not because of what we did but because it started out with each and every person giving themselves permission to be wonderful and talented and beautiful and seeing where it leads.  At any moment you too can give yourself permission to be the universe.
