Take control of your health!

Today Sunday as I sit here on my lanai in this beautiful island of Hawaii, I feel blessed, blessed for my health, my wealth and my prosperity.  I accept myself for all that I am and all that I have.   This is not the way it has always been for me.  In my quest for good health I have learned many things and most importantly learned to accept those I cannot change. When we live with illusions we cannot heal.

There are three main illusions that plague us in our quest to heal our lives, bodies and souls.  The first of these illusions is that we are this body.  We identify with this body.  When we do this we use the theory that we are “Finite”.  This is the furthest thing from the real truth.  We are not this body, we are beautiful souls housed in this body that has been on loan to us for our time here on this earth.  It is our temple our temporary home during our journey here on this finite land.  We must learn to accept the fact that we are more than what we can see in the mirror.  We are beautiful light beings.   The second illusion is that our quest in life is the pursuit of happiness.  The problem with this myth is that our understanding of happiness is confused with pleasure.  Pleasure is not happiness.  Pleasure should not be confused with happiness.  It is in this confusion that we become ill.  We become disillusioned with life.  We are seeking and never finding.  We become entangled in a cyclical web of self destruction.  The more pleasure we seek in the aim of happiness the less we find it, and so it goes.  Happiness goes much deeper, it goes to the soul, to our true being-ness.     The third illusion is Power.  The power to be happy, to be healthy, to be what we need to be to have it all.  The illusion of seeking power is been with us since our inception.  Have we not learned from the cartoons of old that always depict the villain as the one seeking all the power at any cost, thinking all along that this power will bring them happiness, only to find that at the end the bigger they are the harder they fall.  We fall into thinking that power is infinite and we go in search of this infinite power, we seek it through material things, we acquire many things.  Then all of a sudden we realize that things, power and other such illusions are not the answers.  Falling into these three illusion will only serve to keep you in a state of stasis.  This place of cyclical unhappiness and illusionary feelings.   We need to learn to love and accept ourselves totally, unconditionally and lovingly.  Love is the only answer for healing.  Love is the true power.  Love in its purest sense if the real healing.  Love yourself, accept yourself and begin to heal yourself from the inside out and this will heal your mind, your body, and your life circumstance.  We must learn to give love, receive love, share love and accept love.  When we can truly do this will be able to begin our healing.  The healing of our body, lives, spirit and most importantly the healing for this land we call mother earth.

Aloha  and Namaste!

I am making an all call to all of you especially all my yoga students– Help me send Reiki healing energy to Haiti.  This Sunday Jan. 24th at 4PM pst– Join me in a simple meditation for 15 min– Myself and a group of Reiki Masters-
Here is the meditation prayer:    May all those who were adversely affected by the earthquake in Haiti be deeply healed and guided to the resources and help they need.

Today I was reading through my emails.  I have been very blessed to continue receiving emails from all my yoga students who would like to continue to  share the experience with me.  One of the emails seemed to me to be very fascinating, it spoke about a yoga class that was going to be offered to all who wanted to partake in the experience and that all donations were going to be given to a charity of choice or to the Obama campaign funds.  It spoke about how if the participant was not in favor of the candidate that we should all share in an experience for PEACE.  As I was reading this email, I very humbly received guidance from my source that told me that perhaps there was merit and meaning to this endeavor.  I searched  for videos of Barrack speaking on the net, I found some and I began to watch intently. I muted the sound so that I could feel his energy without  being swayed by the words.  I wanted to see the aura behind the energy of his words.  So, as I watched I began to feel a sort of compassion, I felt peace and I began to see colors coming from the energy behind the words.   Then as I was watching the energy of the people who were supporting  him, I saw the energy that they were emitting and from that I got the words “Change, hope and peace”.   I then noticed that his supporter signs reflected the words ” Obama, for change.”   I began to realize that the email I got had more in it than intended.  You see,  we  practice yoga for change, to expereince a change within our mind body and spirit.  The change we get from practicing yoga is one of peace and beauty of life.  We practice yoga to be at peace with the universal source that guides us as humans and as spiritual beings. I was amazed at the energy that this presence “Barrack” emits with only his presence.   So today I will do Yoga…… Yoga for Obama….. Yoga for change…. Yoga for life.   May my energy be the peaceful source that sends love, blessings and compassion to all those who are lost in this time of  chaos.   I invite you to practice Yoga, Yoga for life…. for change… for you.

Namaste,

Everywhere you look these days it is all about the 3 candidates for President. You can see and hear them playing dirty politics with each other, they claim to care about you the voter but in reality, they, do not even know that you exist! So why do we struggle with which one is best? Do we not know that we create our own reality? Do we not know that the only one that can save us from ourselves is us?  So why struggle?  You will vote for the right one when you have taken time to hear each of their ideas, listen to what they have to say and making absolutely no judgments about any of them fill in your ballot.   Simply listen and take in the essence of their words.  Give them each a chance to speak, hear the comments of each about the state of affairs.  Then go within and make your own choice based on your inner guidance.

The process may take practice but you truly know all the answers to all your questions, you simply may not like the answers, or more correctly your ego may not like the answers.  This being the truth, know that you can choose the right person for the job.   Here is a good way to do this.  Open your mind.  After you have listened to each of their voices and their words begin to close your eyes.  Find a quiet place to sit, somewhere that you feel safe and comfortable.  Take about 5 deep breaths with your eyes closed, begin to relax, then place your hands gently on your solar plexis and feel your energy.  Notice how your breath makes your mid section dance.  Clear your mind of any debris, put all your focus and attention to your hands as they move along with the belly rhythmically breathing.  When you feel relaxed, begin to say the name of each one of the candidates one at a time.  For example, start with Barack Obama, repeat his name, keep your eyes closed your hands on your solar plexis and as you repeat the names tune into the kind of feeling you get with each.  When the name you say feels good, your inner spirit will know it.  You will feel something inside smile.  We always feel this way when something is good.  Some of us don’t notice the shift in energy, but once you begin to tune into your center, you will know how to make the right choice for you.

Believe you can do this and you will.   You do not need to look outside yourself for any answers.   You and only you can feel what is truly best for you.  All you need to do is stop and listen, cultivate the sense of knowing your true source.  If we all do this, the best candidate for the job will be chosen.  It will be guided by the higher source for the highest good of all.  You must practice this process with an open mind. You must have the true intention of cultivating your inner guidance.  Do this and you will have all the answers to all your questions?  Remember having an open mind means putting aside your thoughts of prejudice, anger, hostility, vengeance, greed and fear.
