The Power of Words Conscious Language

The Power of Words – Using Conscious Language to Manifest Your Desires

/1 Comment/in , , , , , , , , , , , /by

The Power of Words Using Conscious Language

How many times have you set goals, visualized your desired outcome, created and repeated positive affirmations, and yet still not achieved what you had hoped? There are numerous potential causes for this.

Sometimes it’s simply a matter of WORDS.

Every sound you utter sends out an energy wave (or prayer) that aids in creating the world you experience. With every sentence you speak, you are literally improving or destroying your health, relationships, finances, and more.

The most powerful example I have ever heard about the use of conscious language – or actually the misuse of conscious language – was a story told to me directly by the woman who had the experience. This woman had developed an incurable disease of the eyes. She was quickly going blind, and it had gotten to the point where she could no longer read. Her physicians said there was nothing they could do.

Being very determined and not liking what she heard from the doctors, she turned to alternative therapies for a possible cure – something she would never have done had she not been in this desperate situation. A friend recommended she see someone that did crystal healing. She thought that sounded ridiculous but decided to give it a try.

During her appointment, the crystal healing therapist asked her to describe herself, her life, etc. and the therapist let her talk for about 10 minutes.

Suddenly, the therapist stopped her and said: “Did you know that in the last 10 minutes you said the words ‘I hate to see’ 15 times?”

The woman was shocked.

She used the words “I hate to see” before many things. “I hate to see the way the world is going.” “I hate to see how they are treating the children in schools.” On and on she made reference to “I hate to see” this or that.

This was literally an eye opening experience. She switched her words and improvements started almost immediately. She now has good vision.

How Many Words Do You Use that Destroy Your Ability to Achieve Your Desires?

NEVER NEVER NEVER say “I’m Sorry.”

Two of the most powerful words in the English language are the words

I AM.

These words tell every part of you – your personality, your subconscious, your ego, your spirit – who you are. They define WHO YOU ARE. Be very careful what you place behind those words.

When you say “I’m sorry,” you are saying that WHO YOU ARE is a sorry individual, someone who is worthless, despicable, and bad. Replace the words “I’m sorry” with “I apologize.”

Anyone who eliminates the words “I’m sorry” from their vocabulary will increase their self-esteem almost immediately!

The same goes for “I’m sick.” “I’m tired.” “I’m stupid.” – you get the idea. Replace those with “I feel ___” and eliminate the stupid comment altogether.

What Does Conscious Language Have to Do With Goal Achievement?

Another very important aspect of conscious language is the LAW OF FOCUS. What ever we place our attention on is what we create. It’s important to focus on the positive thing we desire rather than the negative thing we want to avoid. For example, never focus on NOT AGING. Focusing on not aging ensures that you will age . . . and quickly. Instead focus on being healthy, vibrant, and youthful.

An interesting and often overlooked part of all this is the need to avoid words that are negating a negative.

What the heck do I mean by that?

A word like LIMITLESS is actually drawing the subconscious mind to focus on LIMITS. This is NOT what we want. So saying something like LIMITLESS ABUNDANCE is placing limits on the abundance.

An example from my own life is the word EFFORTLESS.

In the past when I made affirmations, I would typically end them with the words “easy, effortless, and fun.” An example might be “Having a wonderful relationship is easy, effortless, and fun.”

This was actually drawing EFFORT into my life. Since I have eliminated that word and now only use “easy and fun” EVERYTHING has shifted. We sold our house in 2 weeks because it was “easy and fun.” – and there was no EFFORT involved. My former husband’s immigration process to the U.S. was taken care of in less than 2 months. There are many, many other examples of how this change in language has made things move very quickly and easily for me.

How Being Clairaudient and Clairsentient Can Greatly Assist You With Conscious Language

As I’ve said many times, every person has a gift, talent, or skill. We also all have the ability to see, hear, and/or sense subtle energy. When it comes to conscious language, two of these spiritual gifts or skills come in mighty handy.

The first is the ability to hear clairaudiently. When creating positive affirmations, the ability to hear your Higher Self and guides give you the “power words” you need to say out loud or even chant as a mantra is a very empowering thing. In fact, when words “come in” that way, they are often the most powerful words and insights you will ever encounter.

The other powerful skill, one of my super powers, is being clairsentient. The more you develop you inner knowing and your ability to feel energy, the easier it is to feel (knowing instantly) if a certain word or phrase is beneficial or detrimental. The second someone else says a word or phrase, I have instantaneous feedback in my own body about how it feels. Some words and phrases make me smile and think “wow, that’s empowering.”I can literally feel the energy (or power) rise up in the person when they state the phrase. Others make me want to recoil and run away at the level of detriment they cause.

The whole discussion above about “I’m sorry” comes from that place. I can literally feel how detrimental it is for so many people when they say that. It’s like they are standing there, maybe somewhat empowered, and then they say those words. I can feel their energy (power) instantly drop a whole lot of notches. It is a particularly bad phrase to say for someone having confidence, worthiness, or self-esteem issues. Women, in particular, tend to face that. There are a lot of reasons why that I won’t cover in this article.

I know that discussion flies in the face of a very popular set of words people say all day every day. Don’t get me wrong, Joe Vitale is a great guy. But those words are definitely not what I recommend. In fact, when I used to hear people talk about Honopono, I would immediately follow it up with “oh no!” It was my own little joke to diffuse the disharmonious energy I was feeling in my body.

My dear friend, Linda Shay, uses these words instead:
“Thank you.
I love you.
God bless you. (or whatever word resonates)
We are One.”

From a conscious language perspective, those are infinitely better. Instead of “God bless you,” I would probably say “Bless you” which gives you the power to bless. That in itself is a great way to become more empowered.

Being able to feel (in your own body) the benefit or detriment of something is imperative when you are on a conscious spiritual path or just trying to live life. It is how you know which teachers and teachings to follow, what things to believe, what things to avoid (including food, alternative healing methods, supplements, people, situations), and so much more. That’s the reason I so highly recommend people learn pendulum dowsing. It is the fastest way I’ve ever come across to fine-tune and enhance your intuition, your ability to “know,” and to get in tune with the feeling body that is one of your greatest spiritual instruments.

Review your own affirmations and the words you say out loud or just to yourself and see how positive you are actually being.

It definitely makes a difference!

Blessings,

How to Develop Psychic Ability

How to Develop Psychic Ability & Intuition: Enhancing Your Clairvoyant, Clairsentient, Clairaudient & Other Subtle Gifts

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

Recently I was asked how to develop psychic ability and intuition. I’ve been immersed in vibrational healing and subtle energies for so long that I forget what a foreign subject it is for most people.

We ALL have the ability to SEE, HEAR, and FEEL the subtle vibrations emanating from the energy that exists all around and through us. I call these the subtle, psychic, or intuitive skills. Since we only use about 10% of our brain, most of us don’t have that part turned on. Telepathy, ESP, being clairvoyant, clairaudient, clairsentient and all the rest are God-given talents we all have access to.

How to Develop Psychic Ability

Most people are born with all these abilities.

A small child might tell their parent that there is someone standing in their room. Since the parent can’t see the “being,” they tell the child that there is no-one there. They often start making fun of the child and saying the “boogie man” is going to get them. They accuse the child of lying and actually punish them. Either reaction makes the child question what they thought they saw – because parents know everything. And, the ability is shut down in the child. By the time a child is in the first grade, they usually have completely shut down these psychic abilities.

A few people are able to maintain these subtle psychic skills. They often are ridiculed as being weird and they themselves often wonder if they are really insane – hearing voices or seeing things that others don’t see.

As we grow and mature in our spirituality, we begin getting back in touch with these psychic and intuitive skills. In the beginning, we may only have access to one. Or, one of the skill sets is easier for us.

I personally FEEL things – meaning I am clairsentient. I have an inner knowing that is beyond the rational mind. I hold a crystal and I FEEL a pulse or vibration or warmth or coolness. I’ve always loved feeling things. I walk through clothing stores and touch the fabrics. I love the softness of a dog or cat’s fur. I love the feeling I get when I step into warm water – in the bath or the tropics. I love how a storm feels – the power, the wind, the intensity of energy. I can feel the anger, tension, or love in a room – or a person.

I HEAR and SEE on occasion as well. I have found that taking a Shamanic journey or participating in a guided meditation allows me access to these subtle psychic skills.

Some people HEAR voices or sounds. That is called being clairaudient. Many of you have experienced hearing a ringing or high pitched tone in one ear for a short period of time. At first, you may think that it is a hearing problem or some mechanical device nearby. It is actually high-frequency tones being sent to you. Many people literally hear angelic choirs singing.

Energy is vibration. Everything that exists is giving off a vibration. All vibration creates sound – usually out of our hearing range. Some people can tap into that. Your guides and angels, nature spirits, the ascended masters, etc. are all present right here right now. They just exist in dimensions that vibrate faster than ours. Most people can’t see or hear or feel them because you have to raise your own vibration in order to tap into those dimensions.

Everyone has one or more Guides that work with them and communicates continuously with their soul. Some people actually SEE these beings. It may be crystal clear, as real as you and me, or it might be a very bright light, or ghost-like, or shadowy. I’m sure there are as many ways to see them as there are people.

People who SEE are always commenting about the dolphins they see around me. A person who can “see” psychically is called clairvoyant. I often hear that there is a 6-foot dolphin just behind me and to the left. I just have to take their word for it because I haven’t seen it myself. People can literally see angels and archangels, fairies (fairy’s), ascended masters, negative or detrimental energies, energetic cords – the list is endless.

I must interject a word of caution here. Whatever a person hears, sees, or feels is tainted by their own beliefs, fears, and judgments. A person may hear voices – from a very high vibrational being such as an Ascended Master. But, what the voice says and what the person hears can be very different. Never blindly believe what a person tells you they were “told.” Check it out in your own heart and see if it feels like truth. If a person is caught up in their own anger, fear, past life crap, disease, or whatever, what they tell you isn’t always 100% accurate. So, please use caution. This is also true of books, seminars, well-meaning friends, etc. We are all human and all have limitations. Channeling can be fascinating, but the information is only as clear as the “channel” it is coming through.

I personally have very strong intuition. I’ll be talking to a person and I’ll just have a KNOWING about something I need to tell them that will help them in their life journey. As I begin to speak the words I often receive a confirmation about the TRUTH of them by having chills and rushes of energy run up and down my body. Often others receive the same chills or rushes of energy as they hear the words. Because I am a FEELing person, my subtle skill confirmations come in the form of feelings. Someone else would hear a voice saying yes or see something that is a confirmation of what their intuition is telling them.

Tears are another tool that my guidance uses to point me in a certain direction. If I read, hear, or see something that speaks to my soul, tears will form. I’ve learned to acknowledge the tears and follow the guidance. It has always lead to magical things.

You can “tune in” to plants, animals, crystals, anything really. You can tune in to why the car broke down. It is as simple as asking “What message do you have for me?” or “Why did this happen?” The more you practice, the better at it you get. Clear yourself by working on eliminating your beliefs, fears, and judgments and then play with subtle energy often.

One of my favorite tools for developing your psychic ability and intuition is called a pendulum. You clear it. You practice with it until you constantly get clear yes and no answers. Then, if you aren’t sure what your heart is saying or you ask your guidance system and aren’t getting a clear yes or no answer, you can ask the pendulum. It is a great way to begin. After awhile, you will know the answer before you ask the pendulum and the pendulum is simply a confirmation. Dowsing, focusing on the pendulum, and asking questions of the Universe, helps a great deal in increasing your sensitivity to subtle energy.

Also to enhance your intuitive skills you can spend time alone in nature, in silence, and in meditation.

Negative Energy Protection

Negative Energy Protection – Practical Energy Healing Tools for Everyday Life

/0 Comments/in , , , , , /by

Negative Energy Protection

Not everyone is sensitive to negative, detrimental, or disharmonious energy. But everyone can benefit from negative energy protection.

 Being able to detect detrimental energies – meaning you can feel it – has little to do with whether it has a negative impact on you or not. Illness, lack of energy, even an unwanted emotion being present can often be traced back to a person’s encounter with a negative energy of one kind or another. Lack of finances, health, love, and other desirables can often be caused by disharmonious energies being present in your energy field or your environment. We are talking about every aspect of your life here.

I read somewhere that a medical study done in a German hospital indicated that 85% of cancer can be directly linked to where Hartmann (or ley) lines cross the person’s body in their bed while they sleep. 85% is a huge number. Does that mean that we could prevent 85% of cancer issues by simply moving a person’s bed? The study seems to indicate that there is a strong argument for that.

Being in a location where ley lines cross is only one of numerous negative energetics that can cause humans and all living things a great deal of real trouble.

The whole energetic science of Feng Shui is devoted to working with and “curing” these problem energies in your home, office, store, and other locations.

I was delighted to meet Jami Lin. She has written several wonderful and highly acclaimed books about Feng Shui including The Essence of Feng Shui. Her newest work is called Color Alchemy: Self Mastery with Color.

 

There are numerous potential causes of detrimental energetics:

From the seemingly harmless act of someone being angry with you and throwing negative thoughts your way all the way up to elaborate curses put on you or even your ancestors, other people can seriously screw you up. Disincarnate entities or ghosts do exist. You can pick up the negative emotions of another simply by looking them in the eye or reacting emotionally to anything they say.

The more you work on yourself personally and spiritually, raising your own vibration and connecting more with Divinity, the greater your sensitivity will become to both beneficial and detrimental energetics.

Regardless of your sensitivity, clearing out the negative can hugely improve your health and your life.

 

Specific Questions About Negative Energy Protection

One of my Seed of Divine Restoration clients emailed asking a few questions concerning negative energy protection. I felt that the topics she was asking about could assist others. So I got permission from her to share the questions and responses with you.

Brenda writes: “Hi! I don’t know if you remember me, but I had a most wonderful session with you last November, the week before Thanksgiving. Thank you, again, it was most awesome and when I reflect on it, I feel this most incredible, loving, peaceful feeling!!

I need some guidance on how to handle a particular situation. I have a life partner that tends to be on the negative side. I have found the more spiritually in tune I become, the more sensitive I am to negative energy.”

Takara’s response: “You are correct in those statements and I think it will only increase.”

Brenda writes: “So, I have two questions. #1: What can I do to be stronger and not be affected by negative energy?”

Takara’s response: “Clear and seal your energy field twice a day.

 

To Help With Negative Energy Protection:

I highly recommend using:

  • The free Daily Harmony meditation that not only helps you clear and seal your field but also helps repair any tears or rebuild an energy field that has been shattered.
  • Clear yourself and your space with dowsing. It is extremely simple, fast, and effective. Also, dowsing is the fastest way I know to fine-tune and enhance your intuition. That way, you can receive insights, inspirations, and wisdom from within. It is a deeply empowering practice. 
  • A BioElectric Shield – I wear a gold one every single day.”

Brenda Writes: “And #2: What can I do in our home environment that clears and keeps away negative energy? She likes to watch Court TV and other TV shows that are filled with negative energy–I swear I can feel it coming right out of the TV into our home. Most of the time, she will watch these shows with headphones on so I can’t hear anything, but it doesn’t seem to matter, I still feel it. I explained to her that I don’t want my home filled with negative energy. She says she understands, but I think she thinks I’m crazy and/or weak and she continues to watch those shows. I realize it’s not fair of me to ask her not to watch them, so what can I do to protect myself and to clear the energy in our home?”

Takara’s response: “As a former police officer, Raven (my ex.) used to greatly enjoy watching Law and Order and I had the same thing going on. I could literally feel the negative energy in the room as if it was a physical negative presence.

Here is something you can do. See a giant funnel above your entire house. Like a cone with the wide end just above your roof and the point way up higher in the air. Ask that this clearing device be placed there permanently. It is like a great cosmic vacuum cleaner. It takes away negativity and transforms it with a full spectrum of light and frequency. Also, ask for (and imagine) a giant rainbow filter (rainbow light about 2 inches thick) to be placed in front of the television screen – as big as the screen. That should take care of anything being emitted. Redo those at least once a week. I think you will see a huge difference.”

If you have a hard time imagining the rainbow, then use any color that comes to mind – from white light to violet to gold to mint green. You will know the perfect color. And feel free to change it as you are guided to. Violet is always a good choice as the violet ray is powerful at clearing. 

Daily Harmony by Debbie “Takara” Shelor

Just a reminder that the Daily Harmony meditation is a truly powerful way to start your day, keep your body and energy field clear of harmful, detrimental, or disharmonious energies, and to stay centered and at peace. Best of all – it is a free gift from me to you.

Pendulum Dowsing for Divine Direction with Takara

More Dowsing Pendulums

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Pendulum Dowsing for Divine Direction with Takara

I spent countless hours at booths at the International New Age Trade Show in Denver, searching out what other dowsing pendulums are available on the market.

I was pretty disappointed by most of what I found.

The best way I can think of to describe most of the pendulums out there for dowsing is this: “They must have been designed for energetic neanderthals!”

Big, clunky, and in some cases downright ugly, or, cookie cutter, same old, same old, for the rest. Even my favorite pendulum designer from India had abandoned his outrageously fabulous and unique smaller designs for bigger, clunkier models.

Ick!

That’s how I felt about all of that.

Ick!

I’ll say it again.

Like all the energy healing tools I work with and create, most of the pendulums designs we offer are highly refined, simple, elegant, small, and highly responsive.

I’ll weigh some pendulums to give you a point of reference. The heaviest pendulum point that I own personally (not one of my designs) is 13 g / .4 oz. (overall weight 15 g / .5 oz. The points for some of my new designs are 3 g / the scale won’t even read the point in oz. (overall weight 7 g / .2 oz.).

Of course, I have a few that are heavier, but of significantly different materials and feel than the rest of what’s out there.

As you raise your level of consciousness and your personal frequency, you become more highly refined, more “tuned in” and sensitive to yourself, the energy around you, the people and places you encounter. And you don’t need big clunky energy tools that because of their weight can be easily dropped and broken.

You need something that has been lovingly created and energized with powerful healing frequencies. And that is exactly what you will find with the dowsing pendulum designs being offered here.

While away in Santa Fe and Denver, I acquired several semi-precious crystal beads and points, some amazing lapedolite egyptian cut pendulum points, lots of chain and many other new items for pendulum creation.

At the dowsing class I taught in Santa Fe, and at many of the other locations I visited, people were delighted to buy our new pendulum designs. Several people purchased more than one of the new pendulums I’m now offering. I’m confident you will enjoy them too!

It's Time to Find Your Tribe of Like Minded Friends

Find Your Tribe, Like-Minded Friends, and Places Where You Belong

It's Time to Find Your Tribe of Like Minded Friends

“I’ll be offline for a few days … getting my Faerie on, hanging with zany brainiacs, enjoying the creative wizardry of cosplay and sci-fi/fantasy related gizmos and gadgets, seeing many dear friends and making some new ones.”

I posted those words on Facebook, which then led to the thought that created this article …

When I speak and have booths at New Age & holistic expos, I always look around at the other vendors and people walking the aisles and smile because I know, “these are my people” – meaning this is my tribe, people who are into similar things, and I enJOY being in their presence.

When I attend sci-fi fantasy cons, I also know that “these are my people” because I so completely fit in there too.

When I lead or attend women’s business networking meetings all dressed to impress I look around and know, “these are my people” because that is a place I completely understand and enJOY as well.

When I’m out in nature sitting next to a stream with birds flying overhead, squirrels, fox and other creatures milling about, and trees smiling down at me I know that “these are my people.”

And of course, when I’m at the beach and dolphins swim past, I always smile (often with a tear in my eye) feeling complete bliss knowing that “these are my people.”

The deeper your wisdom, the broader your interests, the more places you feel “at home” and like you belong there. Certain cities, states, and countries resonate with me more than others. Certain bends in a river, mountain peaks, and people speak to my soul as others simply cannot.

Never settle for friends or lovers who mistreat you, belittle or put you down, cause chaos, confusion, or self-doubt. If you don’t feel that anyone truly understands you, then you haven’t gone to the “right” places or done the “right” things ... yet.

Take a class, go to meetups, or travel to conventions. If things like that make you nervous, then invite someone else that you know to do it with you.

I’ll tell you a little secret, I’ve made more friends going alone than with others. I strike up conversations … it’s so easy. Sitting next to someone waiting for a lecture to start, I turn to them and say, “Where are you from?” And after that, I ask, “What do you do?” Is it so easy. Somewhere along the way I ask their name and if they have a business card. I always jot down notes about people on the back … to jog my memory.

Often when I’m attending a workshop and there is a lunch break, I look around the room for someone else there alone (who doesn’t seem creepy) and go over and ask if they would like to join me for lunch. Usually, they are highly surprised and deeply grateful. So we chat over lunch. I was at a 3-day retreat in San Francisco a few years ago and ate lunch with different people all 3 days. The restaurant at the hotel was not that big, so I didn’t just grab 1 person, I grabbed 3 to fill up a table for 4. So in the course of 3 days, I had great conversations with 9 new people and several others in the room. Some of them are still friends on Facebook and we’ve had some fairly deep conversations about things that matter – to me anyway.

Sometimes the universe throws you together. I was at Yogaville at a retreat with my dear friends Jonathan and Andi Goldman. Yogaville has lots of different lodging options. I sometimes go for the shared room. Wow have I met interesting people doing that. Anyway, the first year I went, the lady assigned to share a room with me was named Mary. We instantly “clicked” into friendship. She was attending the same workshop all weekend. We talked as we went back and forth from the room to the classroom. We hung out at lunch together. We’ve remained friends ever since.

My soul-family, what I call my “inner circle,” is scattered all over the world. I met each of them in some unique way and none of it was sitting on the couch watching television. O.K. that’s not exactly true, since one of them did actually show up at my house and become my dearest friend in the world. I’ll get to how that happened in a moment.

I’ve spent over 20 years meditating daily, dowsing, spending LOTS of time in nature, and doing other things that have helped me fine-tune my intuition. So I rarely just go to something. I am usually inspired from within to show up.

That’s not always the case, though. I was starting a business partnership with a friend a really long time ago and she insisted that I attend this business entrepreneur training in L.A. I met a lot of wonderful people there and several are still very dear friends. So that suggestion came from someone else. That’s not the only time a friend’s suggestion had me take a class or go to something where I met wonderful people.

Sometimes I go to things because I’m interested in a topic. Sometimes it’s because I felt “inspired” to go as I’ve mentioned. In the various places I’ve lived, many of the friendships I’ve developed were with other homeschool parents. Some of those I feel closest to were part of the homeschool co-op in Santa Fe that we created together. I still see them when I visit and talk to them on the phone, social media, and by email when I’m not there.

When I graduated from Virginia Tech with a degree in Industrial Engineering, I swore I’d never take another test as long as I live. So far, I’ve lived up to that promise. I have, however, taken many classes in many different things. A few include: taxes for entrepreneurs, image consulting (even advanced image consulting), interior design, public speaking, pottery (OMG how I love that), web design, design of experiments and advanced quality control (in my engineering days, I even taught this stuff), and more recently watercolor. I even had a $2,000 advanced course in Kaizen.

Because of my interest in energy healing and all things metaphysical, I’ve taken classes, done workshops, and attended retreats in everything from an 8-day spiritual (metaphysical) warrior training with Stuart Wilde in the mountains of New Mexico to numerology, Reiki, Chi Kung, TM, yoga, silent retreats, Feng Shui, numerous energy healing modalities, the Silva Method, the Alivening weekend (rebirthing), aromatherapy for holistic nurse practitioners, color healing, crystal healing, and LOTS and lots of shamanic training. There are many other topics.

Here’s the thing, though … I’m not a social butterfly. I’m not one of those people who simply must be out and about mingling with crowds to feel energized. Those people are called extroverts. I’m not one of them. I spend a great deal of time home alone in front of my computer. When I want to energize, I spend time in nature, read, or stream movies or tv.

My friend Misty is a social butterfly. She’s in many networking groups and has even started up her own. She never met a stranger and she meets new people all the time. Her smile is infectious and she is a joy to be around. I love going to things with Misty because she already knows practically everyone in the room.

What I do have a passion for is new input. I like meeting new people, going new places, and doing new things. I like exploring my world and I’m comfortable doing so.

I teach people how to consciously manifest the reality they desire. In fact, my Magnificent U Manifesting Mastermind ecourse about that is one of my absolute best. When I sat down to record the video, so much information “came through” that it’s MUCH more than a class on manifestation. Anyway, I’m clear about the things I want in life and dear friends is one of them.

I came up with an affirmation probably 20 years ago that said something like, “I have interesting, zany, uplifting, successful, fun friends all over the world who are making a positive difference.” If you met the cast of characters that I call friend, you would say I have been wildly successful in manifesting just that. They live in different countries, some are ultra wealthy while others barely scrape by financially. Some you would consider “earth mamas” and others wear suits and ties. From a helicopter repair guy who lives in New Zealand to several friends who take people to swim with wild dolphins for a living, I’m deeply blessed to know these magnificent people and have the great honor of being their friend.

It didn’t happen because I wished for it to happen. Yes, I got clear about what I wanted. But I also took action. I showed up. I spoke to a stranger. I went to a new place. I did a new thing. And at first, that was a bit uncomfortable. But the payoff is often so big that there is no way I would let fear get in the way.

If you want to be, have, or experience something you don’t already have … then, as I always say, “You have to get comfortable being uncomfortable.” You have to stretch, grow, and become more than you are today.

Much love,

P.S. So how did I meet my friend Millie? Well … she was sitting in a chair having her hair cut one day and suddenly distinctly heard the words, “you need a shaman.” She the beautician if she knew how to find one. The hair stylist said she thought there was one in Nambe and she gave her our number. We used to have a spiritual retreat in Nambe, NM and did medicine wheel, sweat lodge, and other sacred ceremonies, workshops, drumming circles, and other events there. So Millie literally showed up at my door and we’ve been best friends ever since.

Best Place to Relocate

We were in the middle of a huge discussion about choosing the best place to relocate in one of the groups I lead on Facebook. Moving is something many light workers are called to do on occasion. With that in mind, I thought I would share some of the thoughts here that I have been sharing there. Just some things for you to contemplate if moving is on the horizon. This particular discussion began with the person wanting to live near the beach and to see dolphins often …

When it comes to moving, I strongly encourage you to Read more

Daily Harmony – Free Guided Meditation

Takara received through Divine revelation a very powerful exercise called “Daily Harmony” – a free guided meditation that she wishes to share with you. Numerous people have been using the Daily Harmony guided meditation exercise each day and report profound shifts in insight, clarity, and spiritual growth.

“I appreciate your offering of the Daily Harmony in printed form. I have begun using this very beautiful and powerful prayer in the mornings, and the energy I feel around it is LOVELY! My pendulum loves the energy as well. It circles and swings with such delight as I move through the prayer. Your connection with Dolphins is wonderful! I have passed the Daily Harmony and your website to other friends who resonate with Dolphin energy so we may all benefit and experience the beauty they bring to the world. Again, thank you for the gifts you offer with love. ” – Kathy Atwater

“. . . thank you for the daily harmony meditation, it has been fantastic for reenergizing my whole being and bringing my mind into focus.” – Natalie

 

Daily Harmony Free Guided Meditation

This is a very powerful exercise to begin each new day. It is significantly enhanced with the use of the Magnificent Roll-ons suggested. In fact, it is 300% more effective with them.

The details about pendulum use are only there for people who regularly use a pendulum. If you don’t know how to use dowsing for personal empowerment and fine-tuning intuition, visit this link to purchase Takara’s ecourse about dowsing. Takara’s ecourse on dowsing will soon be available. You can do the meditation without dowsing, simply read the words and wait a little bit before going to the next section.

Say the words in quotation marks (” “) out loud.
“I call upon my Higher Self and my guides. I invoke the Divine Presence (God) and the Harmonics. I Am that I Am.”

CLEARING (Dancing Dolphin Roll-On Clearing, – back of neck, or Pristine Clearing Mist)
“Please clear and cleanse my self and my life. Clear each of my chakras and my entire energy system. Clear my home and property, vehicles, computers and electronics. Clear and cleanse the crystals, plants, pets, and other beings that share space with me. Clear all aspects of my businesses, bank accounts, projects, finances, taxes, relationships, opportunities, dreams, all the places I frequently visit. I call on the Warriors of Light and the dragons to clear out anything requiring their assistance. I call on the dolphins and the violet flame to transform all noxious, disempowering, distorting, harmful, or non-beneficial energies and thought forms. Please dissolve all cords, attachments, projections, & curses. I ask my Higher Wisdom to orchestrate the removal of anything else that I have forgotten that limits me from being and living my Divine Truth, from being and living Divine Opulent Flow.” (Optional – Do the same for my spouse and family.) (Pendulum – counterclockwise spin until complete.)

INFUSING (The Chakra Kit or the Magnificent Roll-On Harmonize – 7 main energy centers (chakras))
“I Am that I Am. I harmonize my self and my life. I harmonize all:

  • anxiety & anger into acceptance
  • chaos into clarity
  • competition into camaraderie
  • conflict into cooperation
  • corruption into caring
  • dis-ease & depression into delight
  • envy into enthusiasm
  • fear into faith
  • greed into grace
  • gluttony into gratitude
  • hatred into harmony & hope
  • illusion into illumination
  • jealousy into joy
  • judgment into jubilation
  • lack into lavish living
  • lust into love
  • opposition into opulence
  • pain into pleasure
  • pessimism into optimism
  • pride into passion
  • resistance into receptivity
  • worry into wonder

I harmonize any other distortions into Divine Truth. Restore my energy field to pristine perfection, repairing any tears, rebuilding as required. Flood the fields with love. (Optional – Do the same for my spouse and family.)” (Pendulum – clockwise spin until complete.)

SURRENDER (Magnificent Roll-On Surrender – on the thymus – high heart)
“I surrender my self and my life to my Higher Wisdom beyond the confines of my 3rd-dimensional mind, body, and experience. (Optional – Do the same for my spouse and family.)” (Pendulum – swings “yes.”)

SEAL & PROTECT (Magnificent Roll-On Holy Harmony – back of neck, anywhere else desired) “I am divinely sealed and protected. Give me a perimeter.” (Optional – Do the same for my spouse and family.)” “Please keep me clear and protected throughout the day.” (Pendulum – swings “yes.”) Thank all those that assisted.

Smile and enjoy your day!

Raise Self Esteem

Fast (and free) Way to Raise Self Esteem

/0 Comments/in , , , , , , /by

Raise Self Esteem

“I’m so sorry.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Please forgive me.”

Everywhere you go, you hear someone saying these words. Maybe it’s even you saying them.

Stop it immediately.

Please.

Especially if you are interested in manifesting your desires, improving your health, and being happier in life. These words can destroy your self-esteem. Or, if you are already suffering or struggling with low self-esteem, they can take you even lower and deeper into that.

After twenty years of working with highly-refined energies, dowsing, meditation, and being an empath, I’ve become … like a human pendulum for what is helpful or hurtful to the human body, mind, and spirit. I can literally feel, within my own body, how beneficial or detrimental various words and phrases are to the personal speaking them, how foods, herbs, and drugs affect the person taking them, and even how people they spend time with empower or disempower them.

As I shared in The Power of Words, what you place after the words, “I Am” are critical to health, happiness, and success.

If you desire flow, freedom, and a rise in vibration, then detrimental words like these simply must be eliminated.

How easy do you think it is for a “sorry individual” to experience freedom and flow, health and happiness?

I’m not saying to suddenly become rude or inconsiderate. What I’m saying is to be careful how you say it.

As my beloved teacher, Stuart Wilde, used to say, “Your word is law.” And it is. Every word you utter is a command to the subconscious mind about what you want in life.

In the beginning was The Word … I’m sure you’ve heard or seen that before.

Since you are a spark of Divinity having a human experience, your word is a powerful tool in your manifestation toolbox.

They say you should watch your thoughts. What you verbalize has infinitely more power than mere thought alone.

Improve Self Esteem Self Confidence

Back to the idea of your word is law. Stuart said, “never make promises.” Definitely never make idle promises. But, if you have to say you will or will not do something, if you say you will, then do. If for some reason you can’t, let people know and make it right.

Living in New Mexico, I had to learn the hard way about flowing with change and expectations.

Plans are constantly changing there. People can’t make it to various events they signed up for. There might be a family emergency, a flood (literally) preventing road crossings, or some health issue or another. You quickly learn to live fully in the moment without expectations of what the moment you are in is supposed to look like.

Learn to trust that if something is “supposed” to happen, it will. And if a certain person is supposed to be there, they will be. The more you move into living that way, the less your happiness depends on the behavior of others, or yourself.

When you can drop expectations, you are totally free.

Who you are is a magnificent being with unique gifts, skills, and talents.

The more you apologize, the more you are telling your subconscious mind that you are not enough, that you screwed up … again, that you let someone down … again. That is nonsense.

These are not the affirmations you want to be making to the world about what you want in your life.

Yes, if you make a promise, call and say something came up and you need to reschedule. But say, “I apologize,” or “sorry,” but never “I’m sorry.”

When you have reached Avatar status, and successfully healed all your own issues, then it is time to consider taking on issues outside self. Until then, I think that Jesus quote makes great sense: “Don’t try to remove the splinter from your brother’s eye until you’ve gotten rid of the plank from your own.” As long as you are running the three core human fears:

  1. fear you aren’t enough
  2. fear you are unloveable
  3. fear of abandonment

you will have damaged self-esteem and you need to actively work on improving it. Saying I’m sorry is counterproductive to that cause.

I can hear you saying, “but what about the phrase, ‘I Love You, I’m Sorry, Please Forgive Me, Thank You’ made famous by Dr. Joe Vitale?

Bless people and situations, absolutely, it is very empowering to you and them to do so. But those are not the best words to choose.

  • “I love you” – powerful words. That is a great thing to say to bless another or a situation. “I bless you” or “bless you” is another.
  • “I’m sorry” – don’t be. We’ve already discussed why. I go into it further in the other article I mentioned.
  • “Please forgive me” – for what? What did you do to feel the need to beg forgiveness and from whom? Who are you begging forgiveness of all day?
  • “Thank you” – another great thing to say. Any affirmation of gratitude is a great mantra to have.

So overall these statements negate one another internally. Thank heavens they end on a positive note.

It would be much better to leave off the two that are disempowering, particularly for anyone struggling with self-esteem issues.

If you have not already accomplished all your goals, then self-esteem – belief in self, belief on all levels that you deserve your desires, belief in your gifts, your magnificence, your own Divine – is definitely something you still need to work on.

We are all still working on these things. It is part of the lessons of planet earth.

On the path toward enlightenment, being empowered, learning to speak in an empowered way is part of the journey. Pay attention to your words and choose those that are empowering and will assist you in raising your self-confidence and self-esteem.

Just as I was completing this article, I came across this statement: “the late Dr. Emoto always said, ‘Love and Gratitude’ is the most beautiful energy and it improves immunity.” This is referring to the water molecule experiments of Dr. Masaru Emoto. So, just as I concluded that love and gratitude were the most empowering words, Dr. Emoto’s findings agree.

Have a deLightful day,
