God (Spirit, Universal Intelligence) is Love, and Love is all there is. God is All That Is - the Source of all Life, of all health, happiness, thought, wealth, abundance, and Love. | |
|
When I am most closely connected with All That Is, I am Joy, Love, Abundance. The more Joy I experience, the more closely connected I am with All That Is. | |
|
Thought creates reality. What we focus upon and put energy, attention, and feeling into we create more of, whether we want it or not. | |
|
A belief is just a thought that we have repeated so often that it has become a habit. It is a thought that we no longer question, and a thought that we often repeat unconsciously. | |
|
Every single condition or situation in my life is reflecting how much I love myself. |
A spiritual advisor once told me that I was the self help industry’s dream – trying to improve myself enough to actually like myself, maybe even love myself. It kind of insulted me when she said it.
I realized that if every situation and condition in my life – my relationships, my health, my bank account – if every thing in my life reflects to what extent I love and accept myself – well, how am I not loving myself enough? Let me count the ways.
Some self help and personal development programs are based upon seeing ourselves as some how broken, lacking, not good enough - and offer hope for healing, fixing, expanding self. Many support groups identify with a wound, a problem such as overeating, divorce, ACOA...
The only self help that ever works is this: LOVE YOUR SELF & LIVE IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR HIGHER POWER. Whatever tool you choose, whatever path your Higher Self leads you to, let this simple rule be your measure.
I have studied self help, personal development, and spirituality for almost 40 years. I have read more self help books and tried more personal development programs than I can list here. Many have been helpful in dissolving the learned blocks to connection with Source. A few years ago, I went through some very painful times. I considered it a space of shadows.
Now my perspective has changed. I choose to live in more Light and more Joy every day.
This web site is a dream I am living. I am earning my master's in journalism, another dream. I am writing and I am publishing a monthly e-zine, dreams I thought were beyond my reach. Maybe you can identify with me.
These are the tools I use and now I can tell you I feel more alive and joyful than I ever have.

Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer have created a wonderful web site at http://www.orindaben.com From the front page, check out the weekly meditation and book excerpt. I check this out every week, and use it almost every day. You can go to the Affirmations room to get an affirmation, or to the Highest Future room to get insight from any of their books.
"Like attracts Like." "As you sow, so shall you reap." "As a Man Thinketh... "
Whatever we place our attention on, whatever we think about, imagine, believe and feel strongly about we attract more of into our experience. Law of Attraction works every time, whether we are aware of it or not.
Deliberate Creation is the art and science of dwelling upon beauty and love and joy in order to choose the life we want to live.

Creative
Visualization is a technique of Deliberate Creation in which I imagine
something I desire to create or have in my life.
Creative visualization, picturing a desired object or outcome so clearly
and focusing intention and creative energy on it so intently that it is
created in our reality, is the conscious application of Deliberate
Creation. Each day I set
aside some time to relax, enter a meditative state, and enjoy imagining my
desire in as much detail and with as much emotion as possible.
I
have found that three keys to successful creative visualization are
clarity, passion, and intention.

Successful Creative Visualization (PDF format)
Shakti Gawain wrote the bible on Creative Visualization in 1978. And many have used this technique to create lives filled with Joy.
When faced with a new challenge, my first impulse is to learn all I can about it. Books provide information and tools to handle what ever has come up on my journey, as well as comfort, inspiration, and insight.

Meditation is my way to connect with All That Is. Prayer is like talking with my Higher Power, and meditation is like listening. Meditation focuses my thoughts and awareness in higher consciousness. It soothes me, calms me, and helps me stay in the flow of Life, of Now.
Among my favorite meditations are the guided meditations of Sanaya Roman & Orin from LuminEssence. I have dozens of their guided visualizations that I have used and enjoyed for almost 20 years. Another of my favorite meditations is the HeartMath meditation described in The Heartmath(c) Solution by Doc Childre and Howard Martin.

Affirmations are positive statements that we choose to immerse in our consciousness in connection with the Law of Deliberate Creation. If what we put our thoughts and attention on expands, then it makes sense to choose thoughts that feel good and that create good things in our lives. Write or speak these affirmations as much as possible for great results.
For wonderful instructions and discussion of the use of affirmations, one of the best resources I have found is the book I Deserve Love by Sondra Ray. Louise Hay also uses and describes affirmations in You Can Heal Your Life, and Shakti Gawain uses them as part of her Creative Visualization program.
