Keep stretching and asking.......

So, you find yourself asking the deep questions, "What is my purpose in life?" "Do I have a Soul and if so, what purpose does that serve?" "Why are people talking about spirituality and money, aren't those exact opposites?" Yes, my friends, I read the emails you send me and just know, I too have asked the exact same questions!
You may take comfort in knowing that yes, you have a purpose here on earth, unique to you and rooted in what your Soul desires to experience for its growth and the gifts it has to share through "you" so that its purpose is fulfilled. Once your purpose is fulfilled, you exit the physical plane and cross over to the Spiritual dimension, however, that is an entirely different conversation, so for now, let's just stick to what we do while we are here on earth.

Each person is given a vehicle (physical body) that houses the Soul and each physical body has internal organs that allow for you to be alive including a brain and central nervous system which contribute to your emotions, thoughts, beliefs and feelings (and yes ladies, regardless of what you might think at times, your man does have feelings too :)) Since this isn't a case study of the human body, lets get back to the Soul, the Soul resides in the middle of your chest near your heart, its actually a separate part of you, you may think of yourself as a human having a soulful experience, however a more accurate statement is, 'you are a Soul, having a human experience'.
The vehicle, your physical body, transports your Soul through the experience that we refer to as 'life'. If your life is happy and fulfilling and you don't want to change a thing, terrific! However, if you find yourself asking introspective questions and desiring to get to the truth of life, here is a simple solution for you. Acknowledge that you have a Soul then allow for it to guide you, it's really that simple!
I like to think of the Soul as the part of us that gives us wings to fly. I believe you will find, as I have, that once you tap into your Soul and allow for its messages, guidance and insights to come forward you will begin to experience life in an entirely new way. Your life will become easier, more fulfilling and you will worry less.
Your Soul is constantly trying to get your attention, by gently nudging you with ideas, insights, direction, serendipity and much more. Now, some people refer to their Soul's guidance as "a gut feeling" while others just "know" things. How you receive the information is not important, what does matter though, is that you ask for guidance and then follow it once it comes forward!
So, ask big questions of life, keep your curiosity peaked and your mind stretching beyond any preconceived notions you have of yourself. It's when you stretch out of your comfort zone that you begin to reach new heights of awareness and growth all of which your Soul thrives on.
Happy stretching!

Remember who you are.....

in challenging economic/environmental/social times it helps to remember that you are one with the Divine. The Divine is inside all of us and for me it shows itself as a pilot light burning deep within my Soul. During times of great stress I am instantly comforted after I remember to connect to my inner light and when I do, feelings of comfort and joy flow through me.
This inner, Divine light is within all of us, use it as a reminder of your very perfection. It is easy to get caught up in challenging times and worse yet, identify with them. So, no matter how difficult things may seem or appear, always remember the truth, that you are one with the Divine. Being one with the Divine, means anything is possible in your life right now, the question becomes, what kind of experience do you desire?

Weebles wobble but they don't fall down.....

If you are in your 40's like me you probably remember weebles. Weebles are pear shaped toys that when pushed wobble side to side but never fall down.
The side to side motion that weebles make when pushed often reminds me of how I am feeling when under stress and strain and from the looks of my inbox many of you are feeling the same way. So, my answer is simple, to those feeling a bit wobbly, I recommend for you to feel the wobble and take action! The worst thing you can do is stick your head in the sand and hope and pray things get better. A positive attitude is good to have and even better when coupled with action. The question becomes, "what action do you take?"
Action with a plan is always better than action on a whim. So, sit down and make a plan for yourself, you may want to start by answering a few questions, such as:
1) What do you want to experience when it comes to your life/work/happiness/family etc.
2)What are your heart's desires?
3)What is your higher purpose and why are you here on earth?
4)How can you be of service to others and the Universe in a win-win scenario?
5)Do you enjoy working for others or running the show?
6)What is the emotion underneath your wobbly feeling?
In times of tough emotionally challenging periods of my life, I always ask myself, "is this going to matter in a year?" If the answer is no, I instantly stop the worrying and hopefully you will feel as I have, very few times does the answer turn out to be yes.
These are just a few questions that might assist you in getting through any difficult, or wobbly situation. The key is to see into the wobbly feeling, not to cast it aside, since what you resist persists and what you look into gets healed.
So my friends, feel the wobble and do it anyway!

Desire abundance? Try this.....

I AM statements are THE most powerful statements you will ever make about yourself and to the Universe. You actually manifest on a vibratory level (first level for manifesting anything) by the statements you make about yourself. The Universe is always listening and always giving you what you believe to be true about you. The moment you utter the words, "I am abundant" you set in motion a series of events and opportunities that will allow for your statement to come true. However, if using I AM statements in such a way that promotes lack in your life, the Universe will again bring you events and situations for you to manifest lack.
Consider starting today, exercises that will assist you in experiencing abundance, this can take the form of repeating a mantra out loud.
A good example for manifesting prosperity are the following mantra's :
I AM manifesting large sums of money, free and clear, here and now.
I AM receiving with ease and grace here and now always and in all ways.

Abundance is YOUR birthright!

Abundance is your birthright, you were put on Earth to fulfill your destiny, learn lessons, be of service and certainly not worry about money. Manifesting money happens easily once you get clear about your intentions and commit to sharing your gifts and talents with others all while being open to receiving the blessings the Universe has for you. How simple, right? If so, then why do so many people complicate this process?
The process becomes complicated because most grew up internalizing their parent's fears and worries about money by hearing things such as, “you have to work hard for money” and “you can’t always get what you want in life” “do you think money grows on trees” etc. Hearing and believing someone else’s negative money beliefs actually impact your chances for success. I encourage you to formulate your own beliefs and attitudes about money and anything else for that matter. To have positive money experiences it helps to first, know that you truly deserve to have abundance in your life beyond just paying your bills. Now, notice I used the word “know” instead of “want”. Wanting leaves you wanting, however, knowing gives you more of what you know you already have. Knowing connects you to your truth center. It is this place of truth from which you manifest all those wonderful experiences of abundance, joy, happiness and perfect health.
Know it and claim it!

Turning the tide of fear and riding the wave of faith....

At the exact moment you consciously choose faith over fear you allow for your Soul's purpose to unfold. Have a plan to over come fear when it rears it's ugly head. I choose to visualize a large lever, when feeling afraid, I grab the handle to the lever and hammer it down which shuts down fear and allows faith to come forward. Perhaps you can visualize fear as a bubble and you send it back into the Universe to be recycled.
Would love to hear how you overcome fear.....
Wealth and wisdom blessings to you,

Are you following your gut or gutting it out?

During the decade of the  90's I was in my 20's and  worked  in corporate America in sales earning enough money to put me  in the top 1% income earners in the United States yet, I still felt unfulfilled. The gnawing feeling in my gut told me I needed a change and I knew it was coming it was just a matter of when.
By the urging of my family I went about the process slowly, day after day I stayed in my job feeling unfulfilled and literally "gutting it out" at work until one day came when I could no longer ignore what I was feeling. I remember driving to work and felt a deep yearning in my gut for something more. Not wanting to act impulsively,  I decided to wait another 30 days, promising myself  if I still felt the same gnawing feeling in my gut for 30 days in a row, I would create a plan to exit my job.
Sure enough 30 days came and went, the feeling was still as strong as ever and even though I felt a tremendous amount of fear, I still honored my promise. I flew to New York, met with my boss and resigned from my job. The feeling was exhilarating and frightening all at the same time. That was eleven years ago, and following my gut has allowed me to live a life of complete freedom traveling the world, giving back to my community and now stepping into my Soul's purpose of teaching others to align with their purpose. 
So my friends, are you following your gut or still gutting it out?
Wealth and wisdom blessings to you,

It's official, stocks are on sale!

In light of the recent stock market volatility it's time to say stocks are officially on sale! Strange though how people will flock to retail stores to buy items at a discounted price, yet when it comes to stocks, most fear when they go down and will only consider investing after prices have risen.
So, where is the balance? The balance comes from identifying companies that you like to do business with, perhaps you like their products (apple computer comes to my mind) and then look at their stock prices. Charting stock prices is easy to do when utilizing bloomberg or other financial internet sites. Pick charts that are long term and that show a clearly defined trend line, buying above the trend line is helpful but not at the peak. The market's recent pull back of 10% signals a buying opportunity to me.
Wealth & Wisdom blessings to you,
