Trick or Treat

Halloween. It is my favorite time. You can be someone, anyone, and never have to worry about what people think. You can eat as much chocolate as you want and no one blinks an eye.

You get to be creative and fun and imaginative. You get to be as scary or as silly as you want.

It is the day before and the streets of NYC are filled with ghosts and goblins, cheerleaders and such. It is hard to tell on some if they are in costume or if it is their normal attire. It is NYC after all.

The thing I found most scary, was a bag of Reese's miniatures was almost $7!!!! Any other time of the year it is $3.49. Monday, It will be a dollar.

$7 for a bag of candy where I will have 2-5 Trick or treaters maybe. Well it does give me an excuse to eat chocolate. Lord knows I don't need $7 worth. (I had a few tonight) So I will be a generous giver of chocolate I suppose. Must get my $7 worth!


Anyways, Use Halloween to be who you want. No judgments, no expectations, Just footloose and fancy free. If you want to continue being who you want on Monday and the days after, that is super cool too.

Let your Love Flow

Live from Love. If there is anyone, or thing that there is not love or affinity for, let it go.

We all do things, say things that leave people upset, unnerved etc. But when you hold on to that, it only hurts YOU not them. When you hold onto less than perfection for another human being, you are only lowering your vibration. We are all perfect and we are all flawed. Everything else is our opinion.

Someone once told me something that I value to this day. "If LOVE is not present in that moment, give something up!"

You could give up being right, being justified, making someone wrong, blaming someone for who they are and are not. It is unlimited.

When you live from love, YOU have peace.

Do it for you.

Let your love flow.....like a mountain stream just let your love flow, with the smallest of dreams and let your love show and you'll know what I mean, it's the season. Let your love fly like a bird on a wing, and let your love bind you to all living things, and let your love shine and you'll know what I mean.....

Let it rip baby!

Those Magic Changes

I love change. It is exciting, new and fun. (SOMETIMES!) Sometimes it creates chaos, disturbance and upset.

We are all going through changes right now. Some are more evident than others. It is nothing to be afraid of. Often we get settled in our ways and new opportunities occur as frightening or exciting. Depending on your perspective.

Life creates change. Without change you would be bored and you would be dead. (Stagnant)

Over the next few years we will create a lot of change, physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, energetically and so on.

It is an exciting time to be alive.

We are very blessed right now to witness this evolutionary change.

Every day you are one day close to being enlightened. Every day you are one day happier. Every day you are closer to fulfilling your dreams.

That is pretty exciting don't you think.

So don't dread change. Embrace it.

On a different note, as Gandhi said "You must be the change you wish to see in the world"

True Friends

A true friend is someone you can count on time in and time out. Someone who genuinely cares about you. Who you would do anything for.

Many of us have friends but most of us have very few true friends in our life. Someone who will always boost your spirit. Someone who makes you laugh in the darkest of times. Someone who knows how great you are, even when you forget.

Friends come and go but true friends are with you through thick and thin.

Whatever it takes, do not let go of these people. They enrich your life and you theirs.
Life is short. True friends are a gift.

Notice the true friends you have and let them know how much you appreciate them.

Life is short. Embrace each moment you have with them.

Happy is as Happy does!

When you're happy and you know it clap your hands!

Yes. Happiness. It is the key. When you are happy, you are more productive, you sleep better, you laugh more.

When you are happy you are creating. The universe aligns and you get the unique opportunity to grow, expand, live and learn, from a place of peace.

The great thing is, we cause our own happiness. Nothing or no one or any circumstance (not even kitties and lavender cupcakes) can make us happy.

We are the creators of our own happiness.
Always.

The more you look to outside sources to make you happy, the more miserable you will be. You have a choice to be happy or not DESPITE your circumstances.

I will let you in on a secret........ The happier you are, the more money will come to you. Energy responding to energy.....

Having said that.....don't worry, be happy!

Shake it up..

Tonight, I went to the Apollo Theatre for the first time in my 15 years in NYC. It was such a fun evening. I saw so much talent. It makes you feel good to see that many people having a good time. 2 young singers 14 and 15 were phenomenal. All the acts were good. There were even dancers from Japan who were amazing.

One of my students was performing and has been asking me to go. I have resisted it. It is uptown, I am tired. etc. So I went and I am glad I did. I not only supported her but it got me out of my woven web of being a hermit.

I could easily never leave my house. It is comfortable. The energy is good and everything delivers. why leave?

But sometimes you have to do something different to shake up the energy. So I went. I am so happy I did.

I feel invigorated. Inspired. Proud of my student. I feel alive. It is funny how a few hours of what you would not normally do makes a difference.

Not only did I enjoy it, but she won and will advance to the finals next week and up for a 10,000 price. I am very excited for her and proud. (Including the clip) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zPmeVfKBX8

But the thing I want to address most is how when you confine yourself to your quarters, how limiting it is. Life happens in the moment. Life happens when you throw adventure in, when you connect with others, when you support others. Not when you are immersed in your thoughts and feelings.

Get out, shake things up. Do something different than you would normally do. You will see how fast you come alive.

Cheers!

Taking care of You

Self Love. Take time to love your self. Take time to nurture yourself. Take time to relax. Take time to get a massage, a sea slat bath or go for a walk. Take time to listen to your body.

We all need self love but we don't often honor our selves.

Today, I took myself to the New Life Expo. I took a few hours for me to enhance my awareness and consciousness. It is important to do. To take some time for your growth.

We all need to heal and we will all be "healing" until we die. But I am getting the message over and over that self love and self nurturing are so important. We must take that time for ourselves to breathe.

Do something nice and unexpected for yourself today. You will be glad you did. In fact, do something nice and unexpected for yourself EVERYDAY. Your Life will alter.


For now....... I am going to watch a movie...... Snuggle with kitty......have some tea and chocolate.......then read a book..... (Already had my sea salt bath)..... Life is good.....

Stress is optional

When you love what you do, you do more of what you love. This makes life more fulfilling, and less stressful.

Too many people are suffering in jobs or relationships that they hate but don't do anything about it and then wonder why life is turning out the way it is. Suffering=stress.

When you are STUCK in a situation where you are not free, you can mot move forward. The number one priority in life is to have a great life. It is up to you to do that. No one of nothing can make you happy. Only you have the power to do so. Alter your current thoughts, alter your current situation, alter your life. Thoughts=action=results.

However, on the other side of that, the more you do what you love, the happier you will be. It sounds simple. And it is. You have the power to alter your life at anytime.

You have the gift of free will.
When you are not doing what you love, then you are creating unneccessary stress in yor life. You are the only one who can alter that. No one can come to your rescue.

Take a deep breath. Tune in and listen to your heart.

Focus on what you love. Focus on the things that make you happy.

Take the actions necessary to alter your situations.


Living stress free life is optional........and wonderful.


Yes You Can!

Life is a gift.... You are the blessing

I watched the Curious Case of Benjamin Buttons tonight.

If you have not seen it, it is a must see. It is very heart felt and inspiring.

It really puts life into perspective of what is important. No matter what life hands you, you can deal with it powerfully.

Life throws strange things our way. Strange situations. Things that make you wonder why or how come. But in the end, there is always a divine reason to everything. Even the things that seem to be unfair.

Life is a gift and the unique gift you are to the world is a blessing, You bring so much to the earth and your contribution is huge.

Embrace yourself. With all your greatness, all your flaws, perfections and imperfections. The world is better because you are here.

Life doesn't happen in minutes, it happens in moments.

Say No to No.

I had an epiphany today. There are certain words that create certain vibrations. Try gives you a back door. Need creates survival. But what about the word NO.

No is a word that is ingrained in our minds from the time we are small. it is a word that we avoid, that we resist and that we fear. No is a simple word but creates a powerful vibration.

What if when eliminating words like try, need, etc we also eliminate no. Not to be a yes man so to speak. But eliminating no's creates a new power.

We say no hundreds of times a day. Most of the time we say no, it is useless.

Eliminating NO from your vocabulary. Novel Idea.

Instead of saying no thank you. you could say I'm fine thanks. Instead of saying no I can't, say I am unable to.

It takes some practice and strategic thinking, but once implemented. You will see the difference in your vibration. Eliminating No will help your positive attitude.

Say No to No!

Peace, Joy and Love

Well, I am back from 2 weeks of travel to San Diego and Sedona. There were 2 major earth shifts that happened and not only do I feel like I have been gone 2 years, I feel like I have been in another dimension.

Both trips were amazing, healing and transformational.

Sedona! Breathtaking. Being there for 10/10/10 was something to behold. I felt the energy move through me in ways I have never imagined before. I connected to the earth energies very deeply.

The thing I walked away with, is bringing peace. Peace can only happen if we cause it. There is no certain peace. It has to be a conscious effort of all of us. The Hopi were on to something when they stood for peace. They are a very peaceful and mystical tribe.

Peace is a gift that we give our self. Including inner peace. We have all we need to have peace within. We forget. The more conscious and aware you become the more capacity you have to hold peace.

There are alot of changes happening and this is a good thing. We are not the same human beings. We are elevating to a new level of consciousness and ascension.

Now is the time to be aware of who you are and the choices you make.

You always have a choice. Choose peace. it will ignite the flame around the world.

Peace. Joy Love.

Three magic words that will bring you harmony.
