Ooooh, I love to meditate.

Do you?

To me, it is like slipping into a silky, sparkly, shiny space to be with God and the messengers and to see me in all I am too.

Meditating frees up space, allows us to create from a centered space, and is a beautiful gift we can give to ourselves (from ourselves).

I love Kelly Howell’s CDs for people who have busy minds. I remember when I first started how THANKFUL I was to have something for my ‘mind’ to ‘do’… guided meditations do that wonderfully well!

Some people say prayer is talking and meditating is listening to God. I believe meditating is both. I often talk and listen all at the same time. It is my sacred space to commune with the greater consciousness of All That Is.

If you have let your meditation practice slide… please give yourself the gift of you again. Spend time with your precious soul…then share it with others.

Wow, where DID the last few days go? I’ve been M-I-A! It has been busy with new coaching clients, new business consulting clients, well… lots of new clients, including our Small Business, Big Success program (I added my Practice Builder for the last six months of the year to really TURBO CHARGE the rest of 2009).

Yes, I’ve been busy, but I LOVE to write to all of you. I feel like it is my way to connect one-to-one (yes, I can feel you) even though it is me shooting off stuff into the void.

To all of you who have emailed – I want you to know that I read each one of your emails and I ALWAYS pray for you and ask for God’s messengers to assist you on your path. Thank you for sharing your world with me – I feel grateful to walk with you.

In less than a week, it is amazing how many insights a person can have, and I want to share ALL of them with you. I am constantly humbled by how elegant and how phenomenal our world and universe is. There truly is order in the cosmos.

Be sure to work with your heavenly team to enrich your own life and the life of others.

I know God has the ultimate sense of humor and that we align with it when we are in our spirit. How do I KNOW this? It’s because of the silly tricks that are played on our ego.

10. When God first starts calling to you, you don’t know whether to run to it or away from it, and if you go ask someone (as in, I think I’m hearing things), people tend to run away from YOU (which in turn pretty much means you get to work it out with God).

9. Some of the ways that you can receive divine guidance is in symbols and signs. But no one can tell you what these mean for YOU. They are signs and symbols that mean only something to YOU. There’s no God’s Pocket Dictionary to Signs and Symbols! Again, you get to go back to God.

8. When your ego is finally exhausted, and your body is burned up, and your mind can’t think anymore and you are so SICK and TIRED of being SICK and TIRED, you finally let go and surrender, and see so easily how the ONLY thing that put you there is your ego. And the only way out is to TRUST GOD.

7. Just when you have had enough and are ready to give up, go home, and try to forget the magical moments you’ve had with God, something AMAZING (like, truly AMAZING) will happen and convince you that ‘maybe’ there is something to this experience, and it might not be wise to give up just yet. Again, all roads lead back to God.

6. You realize three, four, five, six, 10, 20 years later that you had all (or at least a majority) of the answers in year one, but you just couldn’t get out of your ego long enough to ‘see it.’ You feel like…ugh… and the comfort comes when … you guessed it … you go back to God!

5. When you ‘see the light’ everything becomes ‘crystal’ clear and it is easier and easier to drop the ego. Once you drop the ego, and see how easy it was, you say, “THAT’S it? THAT’S it? I’ve been suffering all this time and THAT’S all I needed to do?” {Can you hear God laughing?}

4. When you fling back the curtain and see the ego for what it is… an IMPOSTER masquerading as YOU, and then you wonder…if I’m not THAT? Then who am I? And you really don’t know the answer. Guess who can help you get the answer? Guess who the ONLY one who can help you get the answer is? LOL

3. You may or may not find yourself completely at Faith’s Doorstep…penniless, egoless, directionless…but if you do, you finally REALIZE that if all that shows up is YOU and GOD, that’s a good day, and it’s better than the days when you had ‘seemingly everything’ and were living in your ego.

2. You begin to see clearly and can ‘see’ what is ‘false’ and what is ‘true’ and soon enough nothing really hurts anymore and everything feels good, and you realize that God does love you, but by that time, you feel so good it is a ‘bonus’ – not something you ‘HAVE to HAVE.’ You KNOW God is with you.

1. And the number one way I know that God’s Cosmic Sense of Humor is alive and well in the world is… that once you love yourself, and you really don’t ‘need’ other people to love you, it’s like you can’t TURN OFF the wellspring of love that pours in – that includes your mother, your father, your brothers, sisters, people you THOUGHT didn’t like you, people you thought you didn’t like, and on and on it goes in one big love fest.
