My daughter said to me  ” Mom, do you remember that old Florida saying  Arrive Alive?  This surprised me, as I did remember very well but had forgotten all about that.  However it struck me as the perfect blog post  for the last day of 2016.

To me it says Arrive Alive into the New Year.  As I listen to Gregg Braden, Ekhart Tolle and so many advanced souls, I feel the speed of  vibrational energy, and I am reminded of our spiritual nature, to always go back to what feels good to us and having such gratitude for the gifts of true friendship.  I am reminded to slowdown enough to Arrive Alive  and create on all levels into 2017.

Happy New Year everyone.  Make it a good one!

Which do you choose?  To most women, deep in their hearts the word cooperation feels much better.  Although competition may have it’s glory days, it is always short lived. Competition is of ego and cooperation is of the heart.  We can all feel that.  We must teach all who are on our path what we have learned along the way, we must, it’s our duty as fellow human beings, so cooperation would lead a much better way.  Let’s all sing Imagine by John Lennon and visualize cooperation in all families, in all corporations, and in the busiest of places. We must, it’s our duty.  Just Imagine!

SatNam

A tradition that started for me at the beautiful Spa at Turnberry Isles in Aventura, Florida.  This was at the old Spa at the marina.  How I loved that place!  It was Feng Shui   of course, and the energy was, shall I say Heavenly.  The Therapists and the Manager who hired all of us were my friends, my allies.  Whenever we had a lull, with no massages, we gathered in my room and the therapists sat around the massage table, it was our very own conference table.  There, we discussed the many different modalities of massage therapy,  and our conversations spread out to Feng Shui, Polarity, Mud wraps, Aromatherapy, Yoga  etc…etc…  The tradition stayed with me all those years.  Those women are still my friends today.  Before my move, many different therapists came over to help me with massages and we gathered around the table discussing the wonderful tools of healing that come from Massage Therapy.  So the next time you see a massage table, think of the great healings that occurred on it.  It’s almost like an altar to me.  It is sacred, as our work is sacred.

SatNam

The birth of Jesus.  Society takes us away from that wonderful story.  It’s not a time for Santa and maximize our credit cards looking for the best sale around.  It’s celebrating the birth of a savior.  Yes, we can celebrate by exchanging gifts but we should not loose tract of where that tradition began.  To me the angel appearing to Mary telling of the birth of a son.  And the three wise men following a bright star bringing gifts of Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh is where I am in wonder.  Maybe because in my studies of Massage Therapy I studied and absolutely love Essential Oils.  Or maybe because of being a bit nostalgic at this time of the year, who knows why, it doesn’t matter.  I prefer to think of the original story rather than frenzy about overspending, and over stimulating our nervous system, pretending that all is well.  It’s me, a Yogini hoping you too can see Christmas for what it truly is.  The children love the real story, and they are the ones we love and want to please. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas, with love and light.

He was the most documented Psychic of all time, just ask Mr. Google he’ll tell you even more, it’s fascinating to become aware of such gifts a fellow human being can bring us.

The Palma Christy which means the palm of Christ is  cold pressed castor oil, which Dr William Mc Garey  calls” the Oil that Heals”,  even wrote a book of that same name.  A lot of Healthcare practitioners  are very interested in these principles.  Holistic always feel better to us.  And the best thing about all these therapies I mentioned so far is, they always come back, they don’t get old, they are here to stay.  Because it’s the way.

It’s a book, google it.  I got mine on Amazon.  My intention with this blog is Healing for myself, and mankind by sharing the things that feel good to me.  That book is one of those things, check it out, if you feel it would be good.  Because to me personally, I find the book transforming.  And I found the author Matt Kahn on none other than You Tube.  So you don’t even have to buy the book, just listen to him on You Tube and listen in a very present way.  No TV’s, no conversation that are distracting, no conversation about all kinds of stuff.   Do this a Yogic way, it’s the only way you’ll get it.  So many things come in the way of evolving, become aware of this through a spiritual practice like meditation. People that say ” I can’t relax enough to do meditation”, are the very ones who need it most.  We all need it.  The beauty of You Tube is that you can listen over and over again, gaining such incredible insights.  We are all a bit ADD if we don’t balance our lives in different ways.  Having been diagnosed with ALS, I slowed down quite a bit and I sit and feel the energies of others, I always did as I am an empath, but now with this condition I am Aware.   I heard a wise woman say “the world is experiencing a cultural malaise”  I could not agree more.  So do this, I am reading the book right now and like the videos, you have to read and re-read, and re-read.   It feels good. It’s spiritual nutrition.

It’s about what I said on December 13th blog called Primary substance.  I have finally ditched the morning coffee.  Well, I did, and it felt good.  I was empowered but… then I found myself soooooo tired, I knew it was the lack of coffee.  I realize more than ever what an addiction caffeine is.  People tell me but it’s ok if you only have one cup in the morning.  It might be but,  to have to have something because if you don’t you will be sleepy all day is just not right to me.  So I will try to do it gradually instead.  It was many years ago that I started that habit back in Canada.  It was my connection with my dad, we had coffee together.  Now he’s in heaven letting me know it’s time to stop.  OK papa, I understand.

OK, here is another way to awakening.  If you are not into connecting to spirit, prayers or meditation.  Go to your computer and put on You Tube  There check out” The Resistance” with Keith Olberman, that should get you going!  Although I’m not found of the word resistance, I recognize Mr. Olberman’s passion in bringing awareness to the USA.  It’s very good,  see for yourselves.

In Catholic catechism the 7 heavenly virtues refers to the union of 2 sets of virtues.  From the Greek philosophy,  prudence, justice, temperance, and courage.  And the 3 theological virtues from the letters of Paul of Tarsus are faith, hope and charity.  But here in the good old USA we have another very special virtue.   Doreen Virtue Ph.D,  a clairvoyant metaphysician  who works with the angelic and elemental realms in her writing and workshops.  One of the best tip I ever received in a massage session was the Archangel Oracle Cards from Doreen Virtue given to me by my friend Maureen.   Check  out  AngelTherapy.com you will be glad you did.  Also check out Christina Pavlina’s you tube video named What is the meaning of life, she states that our souls are here to gain virtues.  I just had to bring attention to Virtues tonight.

That’s what we are all here to learn.  We all get out of balance, one way or another.  So what do we do about it?   First you have to connect, like a telephone, and do that by going out in nature to a place that you love.  Then ask, whatever way feels good to you.  Open to spirit anyway you love.  For some it’s through athletics, some through art, it all depends on what makes you happy not materialistically but emotionally.  Pay attention to feelings, it’s telling us something.   When things happen that seem negative, sit back and realize that nobody is out to get you, recognize the ego in that instance, and know that you are being re-directed instead.  Just be aware of answers all around after asking.  As I write, spirit talks to me, these lessons are for my own wellbeing.   We all have a path, it’s different for all of us, and it all leads to the same place.  I chose the field of Massage Therapy because I was led to it.  That was my service, what is yours?  When you are  clear on  what you want to do, just follow the leads with faith and surrender.  It’s all a question of balance.  Balance is lost with ALS, I better go outside, connect and ask.  Where am  I being led to?   Why is this happening?  What is the purpose and what do I do about it?  The answer will come, I’m sure of that.
