“Healthy people know that you can’t start the next chapter of your life if you keep reading the last one. Be H.I.P. Prepare now to turn the next page.” ~ Coach T
Sometimes you have to just put both feet on the ground firmly and keeping moving forward. The same old repeated pattern of thoughts, reactions, behavior, attitudes and choices will only get you the same. It is absolutely impossible to keep going through the same door to the bedroom and thinking you’re heading into the kitchen. Clue: INSANITY
It is insane to keep taking the flight to Houston while you’re trying to head to New York. The good news is that there is support all around you to help wake you up from the nightmare. Yes! beyond the surrounding or appearances right now there is help…. Your life is before you and in this now moment here is your ticket to waking up… Ready? Turn the page!

This month our hearts are bursting forth with fireworks of joy and love.
We invite you to light up your own life with an explosion of joy and laughter as you release the inner splendor that will allow you to sparkle. Sparkle by listening to and following your intuition (your heart) and challenging your b.s. (belief system) to push pass your seeming limitations.
Joy is Your Soul’s G.P.S – Guidance Positioning System. Obey your soul by listening to your heart. The heart leads the way to a broader deeper understanding of both ourselves and others. It brings our attention to the subtle aspects of life and directs us toward a more creative, more loving, more healing approach to life.

This month we spent our time focusing and going deeper in thought around Authenticity.We hope you found the meditations, blogs and daily illustrations uplifted your spirit and brought into your life true practical insights for your life. To remind you plain and simple Authenticity is about being yourself, your Best Self, at all times, in all circumstances, with everyone. You are the only one who is best at being you, so stop trying to be like someone else or what others want you to be so you can fit in. I once heard someone say, “Be yourself, everyone else is already taken.”

For it is in giving that we receive – St. Francis of Assisi
This time of year many of us pause to take a good hard look at what it is to give as well perhaps at what it means to receive. I think about the gifts over time that I’ve wrapped to give and unwrapped to receive and how I honored some, yet others not so much.

There are those days when your heart sings out with a feeling of elation. It cannot be translated in words, sometimes you want to sing. Like for me I always remembering singing this song in prep school – “my cup is full and running over.” That would best describe the feeling tone.

I have a friend from High School that experiences panic attack to the point of going to the emergency room from time to time. Her panic attacks are induced by fear, what others thing about her etc… really she lives a life where she isn’t stepping on anyone’s toes. At the time when these episodes came about I wasn’t aware of the severity or nature of these episodes. I didn’t grasp the feeling tone or what was talking place with her, all that was beyond my understanding. Now, anything that happened in the group or individually she would be the first to say “I am sorry”…it was her nature, she explained to us on numerous occasions that she was raised to say I am sorry in the home.

Recently I spoke at a sweet sixteen event. The mother contacted me to add a bit of “spiritual essence” to this lavish occasion. As I pondered this moment I contemplated how much the rights of passage traditions are not practiced consistently in the western culture.
I would like share with you the speech I delivered in the hope that you would share this with every young woman and parent you come across in your own circles.

There are moments when I am truly overcome with gratitude for being exposed to the working of my own mind. I cannot imagine what my life would be like if I didn’t take the time out to just look at how I am creating my experiences through the activities of my mind.

God said, I am made whole by your life. Each soul, each soul completes me. – Hafiz
Sometimes as we move up the ladder of successful living, it becomes more and more important that we be liked and admired. Our ego finds it advantageous to say and do what pleases others at the sacrifice of our own authenticity. We become people pleasers and lets face it, it does seem to have its rewards. If I agree with you and do what you like, I’ve convinced myself that you will love me and accept me. Then I’m home free or so I think.

We are not born with courage, but neither are we born with fear, LOVE is our true nature. So where does our fears come from you might ask? Perhaps some of our fears are brought on by our own experiences, by what someone has told us, by what you’ve read in the papers. Maybe some fears are valid, like walking alone in a dangerous part of town at two o’clock in the morning. But once you learn to avoid that situation, you won’t need to live in fear of it. Do you?
