WATER AND LIFE

Beloved,

Wow, isn’t the weather absolutely fabulous? It feels like we jumped from winter into summer with a long long pause in between. I am consciously intending to enjoy each and every moment as life feels so fleeting. Speaking about life, I am gaining a deeper understanding of life as I take these swimming lessons. In meditation this morning, I was given a deeper aspect of what life is comparing it to learning to swim. Water is life. That has many meanings as our bodies are composed largely of water. I discovered so many metaphors.

My swimming instructor gave me tools that help me navigate in unfamiliar territory. To learn to swim, you need certain equipment to make you more comfortable and at ease in the water. Earplugs are great to keep the water/life out of where it does not belong. We definitely need a meditation practice to keep the noise of life from our ears and mind. Goggles are a plus as you can see the water/life from a whole different perspective and you can see clearly where you are going, thus avoiding the obstacles that may be in your path. I always kept my eyes shut in the water but what a revelation it was to actually open them to see what was surrounding me. Does that sound like I put my head in the sand sometimes so I won’t need to see what is around me? YES! We all do that when we don’t want to face certain things. I am now more open to opening up to my surroundings.

The first lesson we learned was to put our face in the water and breathe out air from our nostrils, we needed to exhale bubbles. It sounds simple but it was very difficult for three of us out of the four students. It is terrifying to cover yourselves with a substance that does not allow you to get the air you need to live. Does life do that to you? Do you allow yourself to be so immersed in life that you don’t take the time to come up for air? Fear will do that to you if you allow it. You do have a choice and you can choose to look at that fear and recognize that you DO have power over it. It took me a year and a half to conquer my unreasonable fear of spiders but I did it. This is why I am taking swimming lessons to get over my fear of not having solid ground below me. I am seeking the freedom to not only be at ease in the water/life but to know with absolute certainty that I am safe in this world. I want to be able to be at ease in the water/life. We learned to do the dead man’s float while exhaling the air in our nose and our face in the water.

The second lesson we learned was to use our hands to push the water from the front of us to the back while moving our feet thus creating the power to move forward. Doesn’t that sound like life where if we do not push the obstacles (water/life) out of our way, we cannot move to where we want to go? It does not have to be hard to push either the water or life; if we relax we can move with the flow with very little effort. It is only when we struggle that it gets harder. At first we did not go very far but eventually we all reached the flags. There are flags above the pool which give us a goal to reach while still being in water/life that is not over our heads. What are your goals?

The third lesson was to gain some confidence while over our heads. The others were able to sink to the bottom of the pool and then use their legs to push themselves up and toward the wall of the pool where they could hang on. I could not get to the bottom of the pool because of my wetsuit so my instructor had to push me down so I could then move upward. What is keeping me from getting to the bottom of what is still an obstacle because of a crutch I am using? I needed help and trusted him enough to know I was safe even if I was being pushed into scary territory. We then learned to move our heads sideways to be able to open our mouths to get a breath of air while still swimming/moving in the water/life. I have to confess that I got a mouthful and noseful of water the first time and had to stop because I was coughing. Does that sound like the first time you attempted to reach your goal and it was not as smooth or productive as you had hoped? I still do not do well with this particular lesson but the instructor told me to be easy on myself and get more comfortable with this by turning over and breathing and then turn back to swimming with my face in the water/life. It sounds like good advice to put into practice with life and my goals. I think I am learning much more than just swimming for which I am grateful. I try to practice 5 times a week and that is helping me be ready to learn whatever the next lesson is. Next week will be lesson 4.

We all need instructors to navigate our way in water/life beginning when we are born. There is no end to becoming more aware of The Great Instructor in whom we can put all our trust.

Amma on HWTM, can you believe it?

Beloved.

This is so important, so life-changing, it might just be THE thing that will turn it all around for you.

You are about to not only interact with Wayne Dyer, don Miguel Ruiz (The Four Agreements), New York Times Bestselling authors Pam Grout (E2), Dr. Fab Mancini (The Power of Self-Healing) and Dr. Lissa Rankin (Mind Over Medicine), but you’re about to meet an ACTUAL living SAINT, AMMA.

Mata Amritanandamayi, better known simply as Amma [“Mother”], is a Hindu spiritual leader and guru who is revered as a saint by her followers. She is referred to as “the hugging saint” and she is going to be a special guest on Healing With The Masters for season 13.2.

Amma is as renowned and sacred a being as the Dalai Lama and we are so honored to have her. She rarely does interviews and has said yes to us.

This is a huge boon to the personal development space and we want YOU to be part of this. We think your audience members will be so curious to watch our video interview of this revered saint and powerful being of healing.

Plus, Arianna Huffington, founder of The Huffington Post, is also part this event.

First, I want to share an important concept that is relevant to this event, which I’m inviting you to…

Getting your life together, I mean REALLY together, has NOTHING to do with luck.

It has nothing to do with “doing it right.”

It isn’t even about the right education, the right books, working harder or trying more.

Nope. Instead, it’s 100% about YOU putting you back into the equation.

Ok… You might at this point say, “WHAT THE HECK DOES THAT MEAN?”

Most on this planet have lost their capacity to know who they are, let alone be able to have the confidence that allows them to move from a place of deep knowing and certainty.

That deep knowing and certainty is “the you” that is often missing in the equation.

Do you know what certainty looks like?

It’s having real financial security – the kind where worry is not in the equation.

Certainty is experiencing a dream partnership with your significant other — AND having this deep connection as an everyday occurrence.

It’s love of life, joy of being, actual happiness, and knowing, feeling and experiencing LOVE.

Not romantic love (although that often shows up), but agape love – the kind of love that offers peace, flow, empowerment, confidence, health and truth wealth.

I’m here to tell you it’s no longer just for “them,” but it’s here for YOU right now.

How?

Well, I know about this little secret called Healing With The Masters and I’m inviting you to join (and it’s free).

JUST CLICK HERE https://mob88086.infusionsoft.com/go/HWTM8/a1822 to register free.

This amazing event has assisted more than 600,000 to KNOW, I mean REALLY know, who and what they are at the deepest levels of their being.

It has been advancing the most provocative and powerful conversations of white-hot truths.

It has been nudging individuals JUST LIKE YOU – the pioneers of our time, the innovators of thought and action – to move into the highest levels of possibilities.

And I’m so excited to INVITE YOU https://mob88086.infusionsoft.com/go/HWTM8/a1822 to this elite gathering.

AND get this…

… it is COMPLETELY complimentary. Yep, totally FREE.

To re-architect your life into grace, ease, safety joy, love and happiness…

BLESSED ENERGIES

Beloved.

Today is Good Friday, I am sure you know that but I want to give you a different aspect of Good Friday. When I look at Jesus on the cross I have totally different feelings now than I had for so many years. It used to pain me to think of all the torture and ridicule he went through. My body would kind of cringe just looking at a crucifix and I finally could not wear a crucifix (a cross with Jesus’s body on it). I would wear a cross without the body as a symbol of the Ultimate Love that Mankind ever received.

Today, when I see a cross or even a crucifix, I am soooo grateful for the Love of God who allowed his Son to be birthed on Earth to show us the Way. We are all Children of God and we all volunteered to come to Earth and for one reason. To show the love that God has for us and to BE the LOVE that we all are (even if we have forgotten that piece). Humanity forgot who they really were so Jesus volunteered to come to Earth to prove with his own Love how to do it. It does not mean we need to be crucified; Jesus already did that for us so all we need do is to love ourselves. When you love yourself, you cannot but help to love everyone else. When you are full of love for yourself there is no room left for any other emotion. And….guess what? It is contagious! That is why everyone loves and smiles at children because they are pure love. The world has not put veils on their pure vision yet so all they see is love also.

Easter is my favorite Holyday even more than Christmas although I love Christmas. Easter is a reminder to me that I AM resurrected and ascended. A butterfly reminds me of this every time I see one. A caterpillar does not know he will be a butterfly just as a human does not really know who he/she will become. A caterpillar has to go through the dark night of the soul just as humans go through the dark night of the soul. The caterpillar becomes mush before the transition just as we become mush when we surrender to a greater Power in our selves. Then through a process that is still not understood today by the scientific community, the mush of the caterpillar becomes a butterfly that has to break through the cocoon, rest, dry the wings and then is able to soar (ascend). We humans go through the same process as we come to transform our thoughts and will so that we may soar with the angels. Humanity and our planet are in the Ascension process right now. We are pecking through the cocoon of the 3rd dimension and we see the light as we struggle to accept the 5th Dimension and all the abilities we will have to soar the heavens and have ultimate freedom which is the ability to LOVE ALL.

Easter is all about the ASCENSION. How Jesus died and arose from the depths. We also have arisen from the deep slumber of self-absorption to spreading the Love in our hearts to all. Soon there will be no need to give medals of Honor to the warriors who have shown the ultimate love by their willingness to save their comrades at all costs. There will be no more wars so there will be no need to sacrifice themselves. What kind of a warrior was Jesus who sacrificed himself for us? What kind of medal did he receive? At that time, he was scorned but look at all the Love he has received in these 2,000 years. He was the epitome of the ultimate sacrifice and he did it willingly so we would know LOVE WITH NO BOUNDS.

LET US SHOW THE TRUE LOVE THAT JESUS EXEMPLIFIED BY SHARING LOVE AND COMPASSION FOR EVERY PARTICLE OF LIFE EVOLVING ON THIS PRECIOUS PLANET!

Let us become like a child and this link will show you the simplicity of a child that is a perfect example of what Jesus meant when he said: “Let the children come to me. Become like children and you will inherit the Earth”.

A final reminder about LOVE. That is what you are and who you are. Spread your Love around and watch to see miracles happen. Miracles happen even when you can’t see them. You have no idea what miracles you can create just by smiling at someone. You just never know but believe that it is true.
