Unconditionally Self-loving: Part 1

Being unconditionally Self-loving is simply a decision. Practicing unconditional Self love means that, in every moment, you make a choice that:
- Honors the past
- Acknowledges the present
- Respects the future

If at any time you find your Self in a state of Beingness that isn't unconditionally Self-loving, the choices you make should:
- Forgive the past
- Acknowledge the present
- Respect the future

Moment by moment, it gets easier to practice. Over time, you have enough love to sustain your Self in those challenging moments that come along in life. Eventually, you will have enough to share with others without depleting your Self.

Feeling Vulnerable

Your feelings of vulnerability can be a great asset at any moment.

With them, you can eventually recognize the necessity of change.

In realizing the necessity of change, you recognize the impermanence of all things.

In realizing the impermanence of all things, you recognize the permanence that permeates them...the true nature of What Is, and of Who You Are.

And in that realization,
your feelings of vulnerability are no longer necessary,
and you can let them go.

Namaste...enjoy the day!

My Expression of Gratitude for January 2011

Again and again, I experience the gifts of the Universe as they are presented to me toward my goal of writing a self-help book this year!
- Two weeks ago I signed up for a contest, with the Grand Prize being a publishing contract and a speaking tour. The contest starts on February 1st...my birthday!  I consider it an honor to have the opportunity cross my path, and to be able to present material I'm preparing in competition with such an esteemed group of equally-well-intentioned souls.
- The Holiday Party last night provided one very useful piece of the puzzle: I was given an Apple iPad as a present from the company I'm working for. I realized coming home that this iPad will see my book both before and after it's published!
- Tonight, I sent an email and headshot (my Facebook profile picture) to a company casting for a "social experiment"...needing people with a background in social networking who can either work from home or remotely, and can live for 30-days with a group of people who have a similar profile.  If selected, the $$ from the project will go toward funding the time off I need to finish the contest and the manuscript.
- If any of these three individual circumstances somehow does not quite manifest as I intend or hope it would, at the very least this is one fantastic start to 2011!

On top of everything else...I have a new friend, a kindred spirit, who I am looking forward to getting to know better over the course of time!

6D :)

I am profoundly honored, humbled and grateful for everything, everyone and every opportunity that has been presented to me in January 2011. Thank you! And to everyone reading this, please accept my intention and heartfelt wish for you, that your life is enriched with all that you intend to manifest.

Namaste...enjoy the day!

Meditation and the Sedona Method

I continue to be amazed at how meditation and the Sedona Method enrich my life, especially when they are applied together. The first half of an hour-long sit this morning yielded two written note cards on "The History Society" (a sci-fi book I've been trying to write for over a decade), one card on "6D" (the science-fact behind the aforementioned science-fiction book) and a general sense of place and well being.  The last half of the meditation enhanced the "place and well being" part.

I've been practicing meditation on and off most of my adult life.  I've dropped away from the practice when the act of "sitting" became more of a chore than an experience -- when the benefits of the meditation were not readily apparent, or when something more pressing on the "outside" took over as more important than was going on "inside".  Including Ho'oponopono and the Sedona Method have brought meditation to an entirely different level for me.  Meditation allows the mental and emotional "problems" to come to the surface in a safe and nonjudgmental manner; Ho'oponopono and the Sedona Method provide the tools for effectively resolving these "problems".  My day is noticeably much different with them than without.

As always, I hope that you find these posts beneficial for you.  Namaste...enjoy the day!
