Why Napoleon Hill?

Browsing through the library’s digital offerings I came across Think and Grow Rich and it called to me.  I thought I would check it out, just to glance over it and see if it was something I wanted to come back to, but it kept calling and I became a bit enthralled with Napoleon Hill, his research, and the way he presents it.

Easy Come, Easy Go, Easy Come

The phrase, “easy come, easy go,” entered my mind.  The money came easily.  I can easily spend it with no harm to my financial situation as the money isn’t needed elsewhere.  I realized something, holding on to the money when I don’t need it and there is something I would like to spend it on, would be an expression of a lack mindset.

Should Manifesting be Easy?

It seems like it should be easy.  Reach for better feeling thoughts.  Focus on what you want, not on the lack of it.  Be definite and determined.  Obtain the feeling of having what you want.  Believe it is coming and it has no choice but to come.  It is so simple. It really seems like it should be easy.

3 Ways to Express Self-Love and Manifest Happiness

We invite the best things to us through our self-love.  When we love ourselves, we want the best for ourselves, and we are open to receiving it.  When we love ourselves, we recognize our worth and we cherish ourselves for it.  We make self-care and spiritual growth a priority when we love ourselves.

Use Your Imagination

I have studied a lot of different teachers of the Law of Attraction.  There are a few things that seem to be agreed upon among them all.  One of them is the importance of the use of your imagination.  You have to be able to see what it is you want, feel what it would be like to have it, and know it’s coming to you.  You must be able to experience something that hasn’t manifested yet.

Following Where Spirit Leads

How silly it would be to call some woman I barely knew, out of the blue, more than 15 years since I’d last seen her.  And yet, I felt like I was supposed to.  Why else would the number have shown up?

Reiki as a Key

I think that learning Reiki felt a bit like learning magic.  In a way it was.  It was this magical key that opened my mind to energy healing, connection, and faith.

Ask and You Will Receive

As I was unpacking, I came across my manifestation notebook and remembered the list I had written about the house I wanted.  As I read the list, I was amazed that every single item from it was fulfilled in our new home.

52 Weeks of Self-Care Challenges for Tweens, Teens, and Families

I have created a list of 52 different self-care challenges for you to work on this year.  You can do them on your own or with your family.  These challenges are meant to introduce different forms of self-care for your exploration.  If you feel a challenge makes your life happier, try to keep up with the activity even after the week has ended.  If you don’t feel you have gotten value from the activity, you can let it go and focus on the next challenge.  You may want to revisit it again in the future to see if your feelings about it change.

Authentic Positivity

Positive thinking, in the way I use it, isn’t about thinking happy thoughts that deny reality.  It is about accepting reality as it is then choosing to focus my thoughts on possible solutions and positive aspects rather than dwell for long on troubling issues.

Sending a Clear Message about Positive Thinking

I read a rather confusing article about the Law of Attraction yesterday. The first half of the article seemed to condemn the Law of Attraction as part of the problem of systematic racism. The second half pointed out the non-discriminating nature of the Law and its potential to bring positive change.

The Right Resources Will Come

The reader I held in my mind while I was writing, and who I will focus most of my marketing on, is one who will be able to relate to my personal story, which takes up a good portion of the book. As I publish my book though, I hold in my heart everyone who just wants to start feeling better. I know that my book will not speak to all these people, but I send my love out to them with faith that the right guidance and resources will come to each and every one.

Leaning into My Empathy

Often, I can protect my energy from the effects of others’ emotions. I will distance myself from people important to me when they are struggling if there is nothing that I can do physically to help, in hopes that by distancing myself from their current, low vibrational situations I can more easily hold their truth of ultimate good in my mind and heart for them. Sometimes, it feels important though, to let myself grieve with them.

Setting Healthy Boundaries in a Healing Practice

Setting healthy boundaries within my practice helps make my business sustainable, keeps me from experiencing burnout, and protects my energy for my own well-being. Without the boundaries I have set, I would not have been able to continue in this line of work. I recommend all practitioners take the time to evaluate their own boundaries often, and make adjustments when needed, to protect their own energy and keep their businesses running smoothly.

Returning From the State of Flow

When I return to the full power of my physical senses after being in a state of deep spiritual awareness and connection, it is just not a comfortable transition for me. Maybe I need to learn to stay in my body more during the spiritual connection, but at this point in my development, trying to tether myself to my body inhibits that state of flow for me. I have found ways to make the transition less uncomfortable, though.

My Mission to Spread Hope

As long as I was feeling hopeless and focusing on how rotten my life was, I couldn’t do anything to fix it. It isn’t enough just to tell people to think better thoughts, though. Better thoughts just won’t come when someone is experiencing too much pain. First the pain needs tended to. Responsibility needs to be accepted. Hope needs to be found.
