NEWSLETTER #35 - MARCH 1, 2008

Greetings to all

This newsletter has taken on the theme of joy, peace and gratitude.  I feel forever blessed and in gratitude that putting these newsletters together come so easy to me even in the busyness of my life.  Throughout the month, many wonderful articles, poems, affirmations, holistic remedies, and more just seem to fall on my lap and at the end of the month all I need to do is put them together in one newsletter.  It reminds me that when we do something with joy and passion, there is no hard work involved because we are in “the flow” of the wonderful universe that guides us and supports us in each step of the way. 

Ahhhhh, I must re-member to bring this beautiful realization to ALL areas of my life J  

Life IS a special school filled with wonderful life lessons.  May we all continue to learn, grow and BE who we are ~ shining our light for everyone to see ~ and may we do this every day with each other ~ our fellow lightworkers and friends.

 

 

 

May you live in joy, share joy, spread joy

 

Thank you for being YOU.

In Love AND Gratitude, ME.

"Don't go through life, grow through life." ~ Eric Butterworth

 

"Sometime in your life you will go on a journey. It will be the longest journey you have ever taken. It is the journey to find yourself." ~Katherine Sharp

 

"Earth and sky, woods and fields, lakes and rivers, the mountain and the sea, are excellent schoolmasters and teach some of us more than we can ever learn from books."

 

Be happy, happiness brings balance and peace in the world.  It is part of the medicine Earth Mother need's to heal.

I move forward fearlessly, trusting that each step I take is perfectly guided.

Law of Gratitude: This is one universal law that states you must show gratitude for what you have. If you show gratitude, you also show you appreciate the things in your life, no matter what those things may be. It is just a matter of acknowledging them and telling the universe that you are glad you have them in your life. By having gratitude, you actually speed your growth and success faster than you normally would. This is because if you appreciate the things you have, even if they are small things, you are telling the universe that you are accepting of them and you are open to receiving, and will receive more.

 

Law of Attraction: Not many people know the law of attraction because they were never taught it. However, successful people know the law of attraction and practice it everyday. This is why they are successful. The law of attraction states that if you focus your attention on something long enough you will get it. It all starts in the mind. You think of something and when you think of it, you manifest that in your life. What you are doing is you think of what you want, which is the cause, and the effect is the object or person you manifest from your thoughts.  For example, let's say you need a certain amount of money, you think of receiving it.  You put an image of the money in your mind.  This could be a mental picture of a check, or actual cash.  But you think about it with an image.  Now here is where the law of attraction comes in.  When you dwell on this picture, you focus on it, and you put your emotions into it, the universe produces the results for you.

 

Law of Karma: This law states that what you cause will have an effect. If you go out and do something negative, it will come back to you with something negative. If you do positive, something postive comes back to you. "Reap what you sow."  By knowing this law, you will understand the power of how your actions can create that which appears in your life.  The principle here is to know you can create  negativity or positivity in your life, through your actions . . . there will always be an effect.

 

Law of Love: This is another universal law that the Creator established for mankind. This happens to be the building block of all things. Love is more than emotion or feeling; it is energy. It has substance and can be felt. It takes on many forms. Love is also considered acceptance of oneself or others. This means that no matter what you do in life, if you do not approach or leave the situation out of love, it won't work. Everything in life is unified and by accepting this and working in harmony with it, you are working within the universal laws.

 

Law of Allowing: This law states that in order for us to get what we want, we must be receptive to it. We just can't merely say to the Universe that we want something if we don't allow ourselves to receive it. This will defeat our purpose for wanting it in the first place. By working in harmony with this law, we are telling the Universe that we approve of ourselves getting what we want. That we know we deserve what we want.

Law of Vibration: If you really want something, you wish on it, and you use your thoughts to visualize it, you are half way there to getting it. In order to complete the cycle you must use the Law of Vibration to feel the part of what you want. You need to be in harmony with what you want, for it to work. Do this and you'll have anything you want. As you can see, there are universal laws and they were created for our good. To go in harmony with them will bring you peace and prosperity. But to go in opposition to them will bring you only the opposite.

 

There is one truth that all people share to some degree or another. That is, there is a higher power and this higher power controls the universe and what we get out of it. The premise is that whatever happens does so for a reason. And our higher power is what guides these events and allows them to happen.

There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your
talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the
lives of people you love.  When you learn to tap this
source, you will truly have defeated age.

Rosemary

In the morning if you're feeling a bit sluggish try 1 or 2 drops of Rosemary with 1 drop of Lemon in a dash of carrier oil or lotion.

Be  in  Joy Joy is the elixir for all things.  Bring more joy into your tasks.  When you radiate a vibration of joy, however mild, there is a shift in response within your body that is reflected in the response of your reality. It can be an easy as a smile on your face as you do one of your many tasks.  This will create a different message to your body and you will shift the usual stress responses to your work and busyness into a more conscious relaxed state of mind/heart.

 

Saint Theresa' s Prayer  

May today there be peace within.
May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be content knowing you are a child of God. Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.
It is there for each and every one of us.

Peace.  Do you feel it?  With the many stresses you have in your days, do you often forget how relaxing peacefulness can feel like?  Bring to mind those moments when you have felt utter peace and relaxation.  Notice the sights, smells, and sounds of these memories.  Bring them to mind throughout your day.  Notice the stillness when you do this.  Use your imagination to bring the sense of peace into your life daily.  When you do this, your life flows better. 

Be the peace.  Teach only love.  Bless your hearts.

AN ENLIGHTENED PERSPECTIVE

Try adopting just one of these every day and see if your life doesn’t get better.  

The best classroom in the world is at the feet of an elderly person.
Just one person saying to me, "You've made my day!" makes my day.
Being kind is more important than being right.
You should never say no to a gift from a child.

Everyone you meet deserves to be greeted with a smile.
Life is tough, but I'm tougher.
Opportunities are never lost; someone will take the ones you miss.

No matter how serious your life requires you to be, everyone needs a friend to act goofy with.

Sometimes all a person needs is a hand to hold and a heart to understand.
Life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer it gets to the end, the faster it goes.
We should be glad God doesn't give us everything we ask for.
Money doesn't buy class.
When you harbor bitterness, happiness will dock elsewhere.
One should keep his words both soft and tender, because tomorrow he may have to eat them.
A smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks.

Under everyone's hard shell is someone who wants to be appreciated and loved.
When you plan to get even with someone, you are only letting that person continue to hurt you.
Love, not time, heals all wound.

I can't choose how I feel, but I can choose what I do about it.
The less time I have to work with, the more things I get done.
