Dan Caro on The Uvisualeyes Show

2011-06-22T11:11:00.000-07:00

On The Uvisualeyes Show next, June 23rd at CST, Dan Caro.

Dan Caro was born in Metairie, La. on November Sixteenth, 1979. At the age of two, an unthinkable event would change his life forever. While in the family garage, the pilot light of a hot water heater ignited gasoline fumes and Dan sustained third degree burns to over seventy percent of his body. After being rescued by local firefighters, he was rushed to New Orleans Charity Hospital where he underwent emergency surgery. While in ICU, a Shriner from the Jerusalem Temple in New Orleans, La. contacted Dan’s parents and told them about the Shriners Hospitals for Children. Immediately, Dan was transported by medivac to the Shriners Burns Hospital in Boston, Ma. where he would undergo many reconstructive surgeries and other treatments throughout his childhood.
Ultimately, as a result of the burn injuries, Dan lost his right hand, most of his left hand and is severely scarred. In the mid 1980s, reconstructive surgery that would give Dan the use of a moveable thumb was performed on his left hand. Since then, Dan has been living life to the fullest in the face of his adversity. His relentless
attitude and resiliency would consistently prove that nothing is impossible; including his lifelong dream of becoming a musician.
Dan, at the age of twelve, began drumming in spite of his loss of fingers. He plays by using the left thumb to grip one drum stick, with the other drum stick attached to his right wrist by a wrist band and rubber bands. With this simple device and an undying passion for music, Dan has become a very respected drummer in the New Orleans area. His unique personal style and musicianship has
landed him countless gigs with some of the world’s greatest performers such as Ashish Khan, Michael Ray, Walter “Wolfman” Washington, Karl Denson, Marshall Allen and Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey.
In addition to music, Dan is an Ambassador for the Shriners of North America. He is a professional speaker who shares stories of fulfillment and achievement; A prime example of bravery and courage.

Just Happy

2011-01-11T22:05:00.000-08:00

In light of my upcoming radio show with my guest host, New York Times Bestseller Author, Marci Shimoff, where she will be sharing, “The best kept secret about Love” from her new book, Love for No Reason that just came out; I've been thinking a lot about Love and Happiness. Marci also wrote the bestseller, Happy for No Reason. I've been thinking about my state of mind while I've been waiting for the announcement for the winner's of The Movers & Shakers competition. I've been starkly calm and happy. I know that it could go either way, however, I feel great. Why because I know that we don't get happy when the right job comes, the right lover, or the right circumstances. Happiness comes from the inside and then all those wonderful things we want come to us because we are happy; not to make us happy.

Of course I'm excited about the possibilities, I mean who wouldn't want to win a book deal, radio spot or online seminar opportunity. ME! And everyone else who applied. How very exciting to think of the possibilities, to entertain the many scenarios of success. I am excited! I am excited for more than the Movers & Shakers opportunity, I'm excited for having participated and

I'm excited for the many many opportunities in the world; the unlimitedness of life.
I've decided to be happy no matter what. I've decided that I've waited long enough to be happy and that I could potentially wait my whole life and find myself frowning in my coffin. That just isn't acceptable. I want to be happy so I've decided to be. I am happy that the life work I have chosen is one where I can participate in guiding others to be present, in the Now and be happy without mitigating circumstances. I love that my service on this earth is to help people be more happy.

It looks like my husband and I will be moving to Paris soon! What an exciting and grand opportunity this is. Not only will I be living in the most romantic city in the world I will be so much closer to my new UK friends and this is so wonderful. Today even though I am wrapping up my life in Germany where I've enjoyed many wonderful experiences, letting go of a beautiful house I've designed myself that I've adored, giving away or selling many of my possessions, leaving lovely friends behind and amidst it all conducting my coaching and speaking work as usual or at least the best I can, while my husband is working in Paris I am HAPPY. I feel an inexplicable joy! It all makes me want to capitalize everything. I'm sure you are saying, “what is she talking about?” Well when I was young, before I really understood English grammar well, I capitalized every word that was important to ME. I believed or understood that you capitalize important things. I'm too embarrassed to tell you just how long this went on. Let's just say school was out for more than just the summer. But now I love this because I know that I was just accentuating what was really important to me, what made me happy and that’s OK. I love the little girl in me that wants to capitalize the beauty in her life. Life is Limitless, and the Opportunities Abound and I am Happy
no matter the outside circumstances.

Capitalize what's Important to YOU!

Be Well
Love Michelle

Paying Attention to What you Want

2011-01-04T07:47:00.000-08:00

I have paid microscopically close attention, all of my life, to what others think and want. I have listened and given everyone around me, since I was very little, what they wanted or needed. I have done what others wanted or what I believed they wanted according to what their previous orders were resulting in me becoming a person that was a collection of everyone’s opinion I had absorbed as my own.
Of course this is no one else s fault, but my own. We are not trapped as we have become. We can change our present condition, thoughts, habits or beliefs. I have said before that for me to really start listening to what I wanted and change my beliefs I had to mover far away from the tribe, my family of origin. The chatter in my head, of my families opinions, was enough to deal with, let alone the actual words coming out of their mouths.
I wanted to be something drastically different than most of my family. I say, “I wanted to be,” not as a defiance to be the opposite from them. Although this desire existed also. I mean that what they were, trying to tell me I was, was not who I was nor did I desire to be so.
I wanted more out of life. I didn't want to be a victim like most of my family. And the ones who were not victims were the ones perpetrating upon the victims. I would not be either. I, like many, was trained as a young child in many different ways to become submissive; fear was used to make me comply. I have been doing heaps of self work over the last couple of years that has culminated into huge changes recently.
Self care has been huge on my list lately. This topic, I believe, will be very prevalent in my work for a while since it has probably been the hugest hurdle of my life. Stepping away from what others want and listening to what I want has been a practice, for me, that has been highly difficult. Why? Because you are often seen as a bitch for doing so. Well I've decided that if it takes being seen as a bitch for a while then so be it.
I have hurdled lately, over quite a few chasms. I had been a heavy smoker for 18 years. I hated this fact, I hated smoking, I hated the way others looked at me as I smoked and most of all I hated myself for not having control over this seemingly little thing. Smoking was reeking havoc with my self-esteem and I was chastising myself constantly to ad insult to injury. On top of this nasty self-esteem robbing addiction my body was extremely out of shape and I was not happy with how I looked and felt.
With all my work on changing my thoughts over the last few years using Law of Attraction and focus, etc. I had been focusing a lot on visualizing myself as a healthy, strong, lean and a non-smoker. I had made videos of me looking exactly how I wanted. I had done these kind of exercise for short periods many years ago with little effect. The key is to do it for longer periods consistently. I had also been stating to the universe what I wanted over and over and over. I wanted to be healthy, strong, lean and smoke free.
There is a fallacy within Law of Attraction/Manifesting and that is if you focus hard enough and long enough you will suddenly have the body condition you want. The truth is that if you focus hard enough, long enough , ask for what you want, all that you need to accomplish the condition will suddenly appear. Such as the right book, for you, to help you stop smoking or the right diet or exercise program, for you to accomplish the physical condition you desire.
Just like when you ask for the business result you desire, the right person shows up to assist you in creating the business result you want.
Now I know that this seems to be off the track but bare with me.
When I finally put everyone else s opinions and wants aside and I finally focused on what Michelle wanted I was able to manifest more efficiently. My mind was not inundated with what others wanted it was drenched in what Michelle wanted and my energy began pulsating so powerfully and sending out the refined and defined signal for exactly what I wanted; and I have been smoke free for the first time in 18 years, easily, for over 4 months and I have shed 25 lbs. And I am stronger.
I am stronger, I feel amazing. I love myself so much that I could never ever do what someone else wants instead of what I want ever again.
I am one thin, strong, smoke free happy bitch!

I am preparing this week to fly to London for, "The Mover's and Shaker's a Hayhouse Event" Where I will be learning many many things about how to do this business of Motivational Speaker and Teacher of Law of Attraction.

Changing Beliefs Part 2 of 2

2010-09-06T05:44:00.000-07:00

We are convinced continually after the initial programming as children, to believe in our limitedness or inability to change anything about our reality or beliefs. We are inundated with subconscious messages that reality is a fixed state, when it is not. I do not really desire to go into all of the reason why the media, government or any other institute would desire to control you. The reasons certainly vary from just trying to get you to buy a particular product to keeping control over the people. It serves you not to care too much about why. For what you focus on grows. It shall serve you better to focus on what you desire and disallow the inundation of what you do not desire. All I can say is, “Turn off the freaking television and change your homepage, search engine to one that does not contain headlines as soon as you open it. Every time you see or hear something, either consciously or subconscious, that supports the original programming/belief from childhood, it makes it that much harder to change the belief, supports and strengthens the original negative belief. And the trouble with attempting to pick and chose what you view according to its content is that not all of its content is apparent; it's subliminal.

So again, I am going to use the tools, the vernacular language of the subconscious, the word, YOU to our benefit.

In my uvisualeyes manifesting videos, I us subliminal messages within. Something that I noticed after I had been producing videos for a while was that many people were initially pleased and effected positively by the videos. After all their face was digitally placed on the body they desired, doing and being who they wanted, in their video. The music spoke to their soul the affirmations boosted their self-esteem and they began to see in their minds themselves having doing and being everything they desire.

If they heard the music, from their video, they visualized the way they looked in the video and felt the powerful effect of visualizing. These videos, as they were, were no doubt effective. But I knew something else was giving people trouble. Something was missing from the video or something needed to be altered because there was still some block keeping them from manifesting their desires.

I soon discovered that it was the fact that their core sublime programming was stopping them. The belief that they could not change beliefs and that the videos were speaking to the conscious mind and spirit but not to the subconscious mind.

And finally there is the factor that as long as a powerful personal desire equals, in your subconscious, something negative you may never manifest the desire.

Example if in your subconscious you equate wealth with unhappiness you may never manifest wealth. Because to manifest anything you mus raise your vibration around said desire to attract the desire. So essentially you must vibrate higher as money does. But what if you have been conditioned like Pavlov's dog, to become unhappy every times you thought of money of wealth or abundance. Most of us are. It's another one of those insidious conditioning’s. Well, they the adults in our lives, didn't know that they were conditioning us with their conditioned beliefs. It could have been as simple as seeing your mother's face drop into sadness, which tore your heart apart, over any mention of money whatsoever; because she never had any. But as a child all you knew was that anytime money was mentioned mom got sad. And you then got sad. You then are conditioned to respond with sadness at the mention of money.

So how can anyone raise their vibration around money or wealth when every time they think of it sadness is felt; which has a much lower vibration that abundance. You have to start equating wealth with joy.

In a uvisualeyes manifesting video I incorporate subliminal messages that allow you speak to your subconscious, use it's vernacular language the word YOU, to talk to your mind, to re-frame first your belief that beliefs are highly difficult to change. This method where I will incorporate affirmations such as, YOU are..... begins the process of talking to your mind, basically tricking your mind into thinking that it is your subconscious mind talking to you and at the same time confusing subconscious into silence while you are viewing your video. Along with incorporating messages to change your belief in changing belief, I incorporate messages that retrain your mind into believing that you are the authority, the one that tells you who you are, not anyone else (like parents).

And then comes, the topic of your video. What do you want to change to equal. Meaning just pick a subject in which you have negative feelings about. i.e. money equals sadness. The video will incorporate various photos of money, you holding money smiling, money flying, floating, growing from a tree, busting out of your dresser drawers, closets, etc. Your smiling face super imposed behind money; meanwhile subliminal messages are flashing that affirm a positive connection with money. Like, “Every time I think of money I feel joy, free, relaxed, peaceful, happy etc. What you are doing is eventually making money = joy instead of money = unhappiness. Thus changing your vibration around money.

You must first realize that you are the authority who decides who you are. After that you must understand that there is brainwashing going on all the time around you that you must avoid this. And it is only your belief that its impossible to change beliefs, that make it so, and lastly you can change how you vibrate about anything. All of this is easy to do, if you understand how it all works, why everything else hasn't worked and keep an open mind.

Be Well

Love Michelle

Changing Beliefs part 1 of 2

2010-09-01T06:56:00.000-07:00

The subconscious mind was trained by you, but not by the you in the way that you might think. You're subconscious was trained by the use of the word “you” by those who told you who “you” were.

Our bodies' house three entities, the mind the subconscious mind and your Source energy or spirit if you will. There are three of you. And if you doubt this think about those moments that you have argued with you. Your mind might think something like, “I'm beautiful” Your body might feel good for a fleeting moment which is your spirit agreeing with your thought. But then immediately right behind that something in you rebuttals with something like, “You are ugly” which is your subconscious spouting off its embedded negative vernacular language form childhood;' it has been referred to as our subconscious beliefs.

We are dealing with three people, which at first might feel a little overwhelming. After all isn't just your mind enough to deal with sometimes. Well you don't have to concern yourself with spirit. Spirit will always be on your side. Your spirit is a barometer that lets you know whether what is in mind and subconscious mind is true or in agreement with who you really are; Source. Your body will feel good when what you are thinking is true to who you really are and will feel bad when you are not.

So you might think then that you must attend only to the thoughts of your mind. Billions of dollars and hours have been spent trying to change our belief about ourselves. We read books, us affirmations, vision boards, chants and videos. We go to seminars, and workshops, psychologists and support groups. We might have some progress, however, not enough progress to affirm that we indeed are solidly changing our beliefs. Why, after we have tried so many things to change our beliefs, does it seem like we are hitting a brick wall every time.

You feel like there is something holding you back, pushing against all your determination to change. Something stands within you like a mountain to high and long to get around. It's an invisible mountain that blocks you from any significant cellular shift in belief.

You can feel the hold, you know it's there; yet you cannot identify the block. Yo affirm over and over the new desired belief so why is it not working? It's not working because you are addressing the wrong entity within you, the mind. The mind is just a processor of information. But a processor must get its data from something or someone else. That someone else is your subconscious mind. The trouble with this is that the data bank, your subconscious mind, was programmed by others as you grew up, who had corrupted data banks of their own. And the way they transferred the corrupted information was by us the word “YOU” when you were exploring who YOU were. “You are stupid/smart, you are ugly/pretty, you are fat/thin, you are....or you will never be successful if you don't..... you are not capable or it's very hard for you to....and so on”

We first become convinced that we need others to tell us who we are and that the “who” that they told us we were, was truth. And in the absence of those who use to tell you who you are instead is the subconscious, which had recorded and stored those negative affirmations about who you are and what you can actually do.

So when your mind makes a statement that is in opposition to the subconscious belief about who you are it argues with you, with your mind. This is the block. Like a linebacker, the subconscious charges at the opposing team and block's the infiltration. Thoughts in you mind, or who you really are, what spirit knows to be truth is viewed, if in opposition, by subconscious as an infiltration into enemy camp.

And at this moment one of those beliefs, the main beliefs that puts a halt to changing all other beliefs, that is stored in your subconscious is saying, “Then there is nothing I can do, this seems rather permanent”

Had the adults in our lives just have shut up and let us explore ourselves we would come up with our own beautiful and divine definition of self; without doubt, a far better view of self and certainly a much or unlimited idea of the possibilities in life. It's an insidious indoctrination but it need not be permanent. The belief that anything is permanent, within us, is the first untrue indoctrinated belief stored in our subconscious and the close second is the beliefs that beliefs are extremely difficult to change.

And it is here that we must begin to penetrate before we can even have any effect on any other belief we want to change. Because if you believe that no one ever changes and that changing beliefs are very difficult, how then can you change your negative beliefs about anything.

You are already starting out with this core belief that you have a huge job ahead of you that is believed to be essentially, futile. When you were very young you had first been told over and over, until you were convinced, that the person/adult that was feeding you this information was the authority. So this is the first brainwashing, if you will, that occurred. You believed everything that was coming out of the adults mouth. Well in believing that this adult has the truth or is the authority, you must believe whatever comes from them thereafter. What comes thereafter is the “you” statements that brainwashed you into believing who and what you were along with what was possible to accomplish. So first you became convinced that THEY were the authority, then you became convinced that what they told you about who you were was true, because after all, if they are without doubt the authority then what they say must be true. Along with telling you who you are they told you without doubt what was possible in this life. And one of these beliefs is that; beliefs are permanent or at best extremely difficult to change, you can't teach an old dog new tricks, or no one ever changes really.

You are already set up to fail at any attempt to change a belief. Because if your subconscious solidly believes that you cannot change your beliefs, then working on any other belief, in an attempt to change is next to impossible. And our society keeps you stuck in the perpetual cycle of; here is what you should be do and have, but comes in, subliminally, right behind it and tells us it's impossible to become and have. You insert and idea, a belief you prefer to be part of your life and work really hard; you write affirmations, you recite them, you post them around your home, you make positive declarative statements to your friends and family and you might even watch affirmation videos. However, if you do not believe that it is possible to change a belief, then you might as well save yourself the trouble of trying to instill the new belief. It's futile. So we must change that belief, the one that says you cannot change a belief, first.

To begin changing the beliefs that are in your subconscious you must sneak in the back door of the camp a sort of Operations Mission. You sneak up on your subconscious. Using the word 'you' instead of 'I'. You are beautiful, you are smart and successful. Basically you are using the subconscious against itself, like stealing the enemy's secrets or weapons and using them against them.

Try this affirmation, say, “I am beautiful/attractive” then wait. Subconscious will often come in and rebuttal with an opposite/negative belief. Now say, “You are beautiful. Subconscious rebuttals, but not quickly, because you have confused subconscious. It wonders what is going on because saying YOU is its job. Now say this over and over, “I am beautiful, you are beautiful, I am beautiful, you are beautiful” Do this for a minute. Notice that subconscious does not interfere; it can't because your mind is playing both your mind and subconscious mind. Subconscious has been thwarted, it doesn't know what to do, and it has no job. It has temporarily lost its “YOU” job and is idle.

Subliminal messages work the same way. They should begin with the word YOU rather than I. So the mind is essentially taking the 'you' statement as direction from the subconscious, because it is using the language of the subconscious.

It's important to realize that part of the trouble we have in changing our beliefs is that we believe that it is difficult to change a belief.

So we start there. Its time to realize that it is only your belief, that it is difficult to change a belief, which makes it difficult to change any belief. It is rather simple but may seem confusing. Simply put, its easy to change a belief as long as you believe that it is easy. Once you believe this it will become very easy to make any changes about any beliefs.

Be Well

Getting Down to Focusing

2010-07-07T06:51:00.000-07:00

Good Day to all from my Skycastle in Germany where the weather is absolutely georgous and I need an assistant. I am busy, busy busy and It's better than being board.

I have been thinking about this aspect of being focused to achieve balance and it's all coming together. Like I said on the last article to maintain balance in Yoga poses you must keep your focus on a point, if you let your mind wander you will loose your balance. It is the same for the Gymist or Ballet dancer who needs to Spot or they loose their balance and become dizzy. The runner focuses on a point to acheive a steady focused rhythm, the tennis player focuses on a point (the ball) to hit it. The Photographer needs to focus the lens, lest she take a photo that is out of focus. And focusing on your central message when writing.

Which brings me to my central message; staying focused on one thing at a time brings balance thus making visualizing much easier.

The following are six steps to the process of focusing for you to practice. We must learn to focus, to gain balance, thus to visualize with greater focus and clarity.

Clearing a Space

What I will ask you to do will be silent, just to yourself. Take a moment just to relax . . . All right – now, inside you, I would like you to pay attention inwardly, in your body, perhaps in your stomach or chest. Now see what comes there when you ask, "What do I want? What is the main thing for me right now?" Sense within your body. Let the answers come slowly from this sensing. When some concern comes, DO NOT GO INSIDE IT. Stand back, say "Yes, that’s there. I can feel that, there." Let there be a little space between you and that. Then ask what else you feel. Wait again, and sense. Usually there are several things.

Felt Sense

From among what came, select one personal desire to focus on. DO NOT GO INSIDE IT. Stand back from it. Of course, there are many parts to that one thing you are thinking about – too many to think of each one alone. But you can feel all of these things together. Pay attention there where you usually feel things, and in there you can get a sense of what all of the desire feels like. Let yourself feel the unclear sense of all of that.

Handle

What is the quality of this unclear felt sense? Let a word, a phrase, or an image come up from the felt sense itself. It might be a quality-word, like light, joyous, scary, exciting, magical, fulfilling or a phrase, or an image. Stay with the quality of the felt sense till something fits it just right.

Resonating

Go back and forth between the felt sense and the word (phrase, or image). Check how they resonate with each other. See if there is a little bodily signal that lets you know there is a fit. To do it, you have to have the felt sense there again, as well as the word. Let the felt sense change, if it does, and also the word or picture, until they feel just right in capturing the quality of the felt sense.

Asking

Now ask: what is it, about this whole desire, that makes it something you want. Make sure the quality is sensed again, freshly, vividly (not just remembered from before). When it is here again, tap it, touch it, be with it, asking, "What makes the whole desire so ______?" Or you ask, "What is in this sense?"

If you get a quick answer without a shift in the felt sense, just let that kind of answer go by. Return your attention to your body and freshly find the felt sense again. Then ask it again.

Be with the felt sense till something comes along with a shift, a slight "give" or release.

Receiving

Receive whatever comes with a shift in a friendly way. Stay with it a while, even if it is only a slight release. Whatever comes, this is only one shift; there will be others. You will probably continue after a little while, but stay here for a few moments.

Practice these steps to help you get in touch with the desire with the most priority; to discover what is most important to you, right now, to focus on. Then begin visualizing it.

Be Well

Love Michelle

What follows is a largely edited excerpt from The Focusing Manual, chapter four of Focusing.

Visualization and Focus

2010-07-05T06:58:00.001-07:00

Good Day from my Skycastle in Germany. I hope that all of you are doing well and visualizing your desires. I got out of alignment a few weeks back and it took some refocusing to bring myself back into alignment. Somehow we have this tendency to revert to old ways, thinking they are easier. However, its not so much that old ways are easier it's that it's easier to fall back to old ways. Adjusting or changing our way of thinking/believing takes some time to become instilled within us or become our habit. When new and better ways of thinking finally become our habit then old habits are not turned to; as in the past. My trip to the States knocked me out of the routine that I had been practicing, therefore my body responded with becoming ill. Our bodies tell us whats going on with our thoughts. I am well and back into my routine of meditating, doing yoga and taking care of my body. More importantly I am taking care of my thoughts.

One of the things that has occurred over the last month or two is that I got into the habit of chasing several rabbits. An ancient proverb says; If you chase two rabbits you catch none. Meaning if you are trying to focus on to many things at once you get so split that you get out of alignment and you do not manifest anything specific. You are telling the Universe you want this, that, this and that. You put something out there, snatch it back and then put another thing out there and again snatch it back. Focus is an important factor. When I was doing Yoga this morning I was reminded that Yoga tells you that you must focus on a point, in front of you, to remain balanced. It says that if your mind or focus is wandering you become out of balance. To hold a Yoga pose you must focus on a point in order to balance. As soon as your focus leaves the point you fall out of balance.

I realized that my original focus or intention was to teach and practice visualization. To guide other's in learning Visualization to manifest a desired experience. I had gotten off into many other areas of Law of Attraction and was focusing on too many things. Not that what I have done so far, in my work, was pointless or worthless. It has served well. However, the rabbit I desire to chase is Visualization.

Something that came to me on the treadmill this morning was that fear is within us because we believe something or someone else is in control of what happens to us. Therefore we fear the possibility of that something or someone will harm our sense of well-being in some way. When we realize that we are the master of our Universe then we will no longer feel fear. Knowing that you are the one that manifests your experience can be soothing because you know you are the one in control. You are the one making the decisions. With your thoughts/focus you manifest your experience.

In my focusing on so many things I began to feel fearful. There was so much going on and I lost sight that I was in control, I manifest what I desire and all of these projects are attended to by choice. I have decided to come back to my original focus of specializing in visualization.

So, for the most part, I am going to be talking about visualizing what we desire. Seeing in our mind, or third eye, what we desire as our life experience.

To bring a vibrant image into your mind you must think about all the aspects of the experience you desire and bring them together.

Collect the ingredients that make up the experience you desire; such as the colors, the smells, the sounds, the textures, and the feelings. How does your body feel in the condition you desire? How does your heart feel in the relationship you desire? How does your nervous system feel in the abundant condition you desire.

When you read a book and get completely drawn into the story and you feel the character and the surroundings you are visualizing. When you are sure you can smell the meal the character, in a story, lays down on the table you are visualizing. When you feel yourself relating the character so deeply that you almost believe it is you that is having the character's experience. And when someone, in the real world, speaks to you while you are so involved in a story you are reading and you don't hear them it's because you are completely involved in the visualization of the moment the author is describing. This is visualization!

So when you are designing your visualization you are writing the story of the experience you wish to have.

Write your story, with every single detail that you can think of, as if it were already your experience.

I.E. As Michelle stood in the front yard taking in the red, gold and bronze fall leaves on the tree, she turned towards the house in response to the delicious smell of the catfish frying in the kitchen and the wind blew her hair into her face tickling her nose and she sneezed.

In this description, Michelle, at this very moment saw the colors of the fall leaves, smelled the catfish in the air, felt the wind on her skin and the hair on her nose and had a response; the sneeze.

This is how you write your story for your visualization. Write it as present tense, include all the senses and describe responses until you can feel yourself having the experience. It's call Make Believe.

Get your head in the clouds and dream. Dream of all the joyous experiences you wish to have and allow yourself to soar into the dreaminess of the clouds

Spend time every day dreaming. At least 20 minutes a day and then write down what you dreamed about.

Until next time, Happy Dreaming

Be Well

The Prime Directive of the Universe and Limiting Thoughts

2010-06-20T23:40:00.000-07:00

Good day to all from my Skycastle in Germany where I have just recovered from a wicked cold. I am feeling fantastic today and have missed writing articles. If you missed the Uvisualeyes Radio Show, with my guest host Michael Losier you can hear it on my blog, just click the Blogtalkradio Icon.

It is said that we are our own worst enemy! Why? Because we have so many limiting beliefs or thoughts. After

interviewing Michael Losier on my Uvisualeyes Radio Show I began to think more about how our limiting beliefs

are one of the major issues in our attempt to manifest the life experience we desire. I have manifested amazing

things in my life. As I look back at both the manifested and un-manifested things I noticed that those things I manifested all had something in common. That something was; I had visualized, emotionalized and asked (sometimes made a list) and then, without thinking about it, went about my daily routine. I did not revisit the request, except to think now and again of the joy of having said thing. In turn I did not entertain the limiting beliefs or thoughts.

I believe strongly in visualization. I know that it works, is enhanced by visualizing videos and it its much more effective than affirmations because your belief is raised by seeing yourself having, doing and being what you desire. Affirmations can work, however, not in the common way they have been written. It is highly important, because of our limiting thoughts/beliefs, to write or use affirmations that, at this moment, are believable. The problem with affirmation, for a long time now, is that they too often state what we want to believe but are usually so far away from what we actually believe that we discount them quickly, most of the time without realizing that we have.

So often we get frustrated with how our desires are so slow in coming, or that they just are showing up at all, that we question Law of Attraction. We have done all they things the great teachers have suggested, we have visualized, raised our vibration, focused, affirmed and requested; over and over again. Then we stand back and wonder why we are not seeing results; thus bringing on an onslaught of limiting thoughts.

The limiting beliefs or thoughts that we entertain, after making our request to the Universe, cancels our order. We present our desires, then list in our minds why they won't show up, couldn't show up, have never showed up before and convince ourselves and more poignantly convince the Universe of it's impossibility.

The Universe has only one Prime Directive and that is; to match your vibration. It knows nothing, does not think or distinguish who or what is feasible, deserved, right or wrong nor does it care. It's only job is to match your vibration and this is it's Prime Directive. Our vibration is created by our thoughts. Every thought has a vibration and you can tell whether the thought comes from a place of love or fear by how you feel when you think a particular thought. If it comes from a place of love; it feels good and is of a higher vibration. If it comes from a place of fear; it feels bad and is of lower vibration. Your vibration is affected by your limiting thoughts or beliefs.

Limiting thoughts come from a place of fear and is a lower vibration in which the Universe matches and brings you more things of lower vibration. The good news is that this is also true of unlimited thoughts or beliefs.

The Universe is the limit. When you allow yourself to expand out into the Universe, entertain just how unlimited the Universe is and merge with that energy you will realize that there is nothing that is impossible.

When you realize that you deserve everything you want then your limiting thoughts will dissipate.

When you are able to allow what you desire to come to you, then it will. Our limiting thoughts or beliefs are what cancels our order, it is what stops the allowing.

The simplest way to dissolve limiting thoughts, as is stated in the book, Law of Attraction, is to start entertaining in your mind all the people who have attracted what you desire. This takes it away from being so personal and begins to change your limiting beliefs. Start making other affirmative statements.

Make statements like;

Yesterday someone became a millionaire, found their perfect mate, started a successful business, got their perfect job, healed from a debilitating illness, lost the weight they desired, bought their dream home, etc.

Every day someone; becomes wealthier, finds love, heals, etc.

Do some research on the statistics of what you desire. Find the people who have attracted what you desire.

Write down all the things and desires that you have attracted and put behind each one of them; Someone, me, attracted (fill in the blank) and it happens all the time.

People receive what the desire, every minute of every day all over the world. You can allow you, to be one of them.

Be Well

Maintaining High Vibration

2010-06-15T09:04:00.000-07:00

Good day to all from my Skycastle in Germany. I am happy to be back from my trip to the U.S. where I enjoyed my time with my children and my grandchildren. What a delight it was to see my son's joyous tears over the birth of his first child.

I was pleased during my visit that, unlike in the past, I was able to maintain a high vibration while being in the presence, of some peoples lower vibration.

This has been my struggle in the past. I have always, in the past, offered my energy to others, who were vibrating at a low level, bringing them up to a higher vibration. My husband calls me their cheerleader. It is draining and I was in conflict because I felt that if I didn't offer them a boost up that I would be unable to be in the presence of many of my family members. The problem with this is that they would begin to vibrate at a higher level and my vibration, from pure exhaustion, would lower.

I struggled with feeling anxiety and dread, every time, just before I left to visit family members who I knew were vibrating at a lower level. I didn't really want to make the long trip to visit them because it was so much work and not a lot of fun for me.

However, after practicing keeping my vibration at a high level, for so long now and realizing, finally, that it is not my job to make other's happy nor was I able to make them happy; at least for any great length of time I was able to maintain a high vibration. I noticed while I was in the presence of people vibrating at a low level, that I no longer felt compelled to fix them in anyway. I noticed that it no longer mattered to me where they were vibrating and I knew that it was up to them to raise their own vibration. I also knew, now, that they have the right to manifest what ever they choose, and it's none of my concern. I also noticed that because I was vibrating at a high level that only those who were also vibrating at a high level were drawn to me; Law of Attraction in Action.

Focusing on raising your vibration level is of the utmost importance. Spending as much time as possible focusing only on what you want is the key. The more you focus on what you want and the longer you spend time doing this the stronger your ability to do so becomes.

It took me a year, being away from the States, American T.V. and low vibration people, to come to this point where I am able to maintain a high vibration no matter what. I spent much time re-focusing my thoughts, constantly, before I came to a point that it mattered not what was going on around me or who was around me.

In the past, specifically around my family, I allowed myself to be sucked into their low vibration. I used to be sure that it was their fault that I was unhappy. It had seemed like that every time I just got up and running, well ,on some project, life direction or goal, that one of them would turn up ill, in crisis or need and these events would seize my intended direction; and I was resentful. I accused them, privately, of being focused on ruining my life. I was sure that they were aware of my intentions, or that I was happy, and they were out to destroy my happiness. After all, I had proof, because they would turn up in crisis every time I was on a roll. It was easy to site this. I had the real stories to prove it and no one, except my husband, refuted my sitings. My husband continually said, "Why do you let them effect you like this?" I would just repeat my findings. Being the strong personality that I am, he would just comfort me the best way he knew.

However, after studying the Law of Attraction for several years I finally realized that what was occurring outside of me was due to what was occurring inside me. It was a matter of two things; one, keeping my vibration high no matter what and two, I had to stop focusing on my families behavior. In focusing on my families behavior, what i was sure they were going to do, they certainly did. I expected the same old behavior and received the same behavior. I had to realize that my thoughts were the problem not them. How I felt about their behavior, what I expected they would do and blaming them was the problem.

How you think, feel and see a situation or people creates or manifests your reality. I had to change how I thought, thus changing how I felt and saw the situation or people. I decided to focus on what I wanted and did. I focused on how much I appreciated my life, with my husband, in Europe. I focused on my newly founded work. I focused on my writing, art and designing. I focused on what I wanted in my life.

Eventually, without the other people changing their behavior, I was no longer effected by anything anyone else did or didn't do. It's not a matter of changing anyone else's behavior, it's a matter of changing how I think. No ones life or behavior ever need seep into my experience. It is their experience. I focus on my experience and what I want as my experience.

It seems like more of a struggle, to focus on your own life, when it comes to family. I had to let go of my guilt, of feeling like it was my responsibility to make my family happy. For a long time I received slack from distant relatives for having abandon my family, in need, and caring more about myself. However, in caring more about myself I changed how I thought and felt, raised my vibration and teach by example.

If everyone focused on their own lives, raising their vibration, and became happy then no one would ever be in crisis. No one would need anyone else to make them feel good. I have discarded my guilt because I discarded the idea that I was responsible for anyone else's happiness. No one else is responsible for your life experience. No one else is responsible for making you feel good, happy or feel love for yourself.

Someones behavior or what they think about you need affect how you feel about yourself or your life.

I feel such joy now that I know that all I have to do is focus on what I want. I feel joy because I keep my focus on joy and thus my vibration is of joy. I am able to inspire others to do the same by being able to maintain my high vibration and receive all that I desire.

I am so pleased that, on my trip to see my family, that I was able to maintain my high vibration. It has shown my my great progress and I appreciate this experience. What is occurring inside of you creates what is occurring outside of you.

I know now that no matter what is occurring in my world that I can remain in a high vibration, remain happy and I alway's have the power to manifest the life experience I prefer.

Be Well

Love Michelle

Good Day to all, from my Skycastle in Germany. A good friend emailed this list of ten ways to raise your good feeling vibration, oddly I found that I had written a blog very similar to this, but it never hurts to review.

10 Steps To Raising Your Vibration

Raising your vibration is the only effective way to get to the life you
truly want to live. While you are emitting a low vibration or frequency your
life will never really be in harmony and you will constantly live with an
inner feeling of discontent. It is this life of discontent that you put up
with and accept that keeps you in a state of low vibration. When you find
the courage to do something about your low quality of life and choose to make
things better you are on the right track to raising your vibration.
Raising your vibration comes down to many factors and listed below are 10 key
steps that will definitely help towards raising your vibration immediately.

1. Be mindful of your thoughts, when raising your vibration. It is
imperative to keep a close eye on the habitual thoughts that enter your head. It
can be difficult at first to be aware of the many thoughts that constantly
bombard your mind all day long but by beginning to notice unwelcome or
negative thoughts you can start to replace them with a positive thought you
already have preprogrammed in your mind, this works wonders towards raising
your vibration.. When I say preprogrammed I mean you have a positive thought
in your mind, a thought that you know makes you happy, that you substitute
in place of any negative thought that comes into your mind. The key to this
thought substitution is to spend as much time thinking positive thoughts
and less time thinking negative thoughts. By spending more mental time in the
positive, this will help raise your vibration.

2. Only talk about what you want, not what you do not want when looking to
raise your vibration. If you are looking for a new relationship, don¢t say
things like, I can never find the right person for me. If you talk like
this, this is exactly what you will get and you will make your quest towards
raising your vibration that much harder. You get what you say and think.
Even if you haven¢t been too successful in finding the right person
previously, it does not matter. Change your words and you will change your life and what you get in your life. Instead say something like, I intend to find the
perfect person for me. Have a confident expectancy that at any time you
could meet this person and you will exponentially increase your chances of
finding them. The same thing goes for money, do not talk about not having
enough money, either do not talk about it at all or only talk positively about
having money and as what you want comes to you, this will help with
raising your vibration as you feel better about yourself.

3. Stay away from negative or pessimistic people. These types of people
are running a very low vibration and their low vibration can have a negative
impact on your vibration level. Instead of raising your vibration you will
lower it and this will bring about more events residing on a low vibration,
like problems, stress and worry.

4. Spend some time not thinking. Yes that is right, _stop thinking_
(http://www.universeofsuccess.com/how-to-stop-thinking.html) so much. To do this I like to take a walk through the bush or away from the city and the
noise. Go to a place in the country if you can and take a long walk,
concentrating on your surroundings, keeping your mind off your usual thoughts. This is a great way to clear your head and also help in raising your vibration. If
you cannot get away, try listening to some soothing music and avoid
thinking by concentrating on the sounds.

5. Join groups of like minded people. Spend time with people interested in
the same things you like and learn at the same time. Before I started
writing for my website I took a 3 months community college course in Writing.
Not only did I improve my writing I also got to spend time with other people
who shared a similar interest with me. I always walked away from each
class feeling positive about being a writer and this had a positive effect on
my vibration as it made me feel good about myself.. Being around like minded
and positive people seriously helps towards raising your vibration and the
vibration of those around you.

6. Give away something you can afford each week. Give away your time, some
money to a charity you believe in or give away something you don¢t use
anymore but may be useful to someone else. What you give is what you get in
life, so by giving you will receive in one way or another. Help others and
you will be helped. You have a profound effect on raising your vibration when
you help others as it makes you feel good from the inside.

7. Be aware of your actions. Everything you do comes back to you in some
way so always be wary of how you treat others and how you act in all
situations. How you treat others is how you will be treated, by doing the right
thing by everyone you come into contact with will help towards raising your
vibration as others continue to do the right thing by you.. Treating
everyone well will have a positive effect on _attracting people_
(http://www.attractingpeople.com/attracting-people.html) and opportunities into your life.

8. Avoid the television, radio and media in general. It is especially
important to avoid all news programs as they do much more harm to your
vibration level than they do good. By watching TV you end up taking in so much
negative energy it becomes confusing to your subconscious mind and some of that negative imagery and energy gets absorbed by your subconscious and
elevates a feeling of fear from within. Most of the media works by fear mongering, they want to shock you into a state of fear so you keep on watching and
the more you watch the more addicted you become. This has a disastrous impact on your vibration level and will never have a positive effect on raising
your vibration.

9. Stay optimistic at all times if your goal is to raise your vibration.
This can be difficult to do especially when you are in a crisis but when
you are in a crisis situation, this is when it is most important to stay
positive. By remaining positive you keep your vibration high and when you are
vibrating at a higher rate your problems will dissipate so much quicker or
you may find it was not really a problem at all. Positive things and events
are attracted to positive people. Surrounding yourself with positive people
is a great way to remain in a positive state of mind.

10. Stay in touch with your feelings. This is the most important factor in
keeping your vibration level high. Your feelings are the cosmic glue in
regards to your entire life. When you are feeling good about yourself only
other things residing on the same good frequency will be attracted into your
life. Your level of vibration runs parallel with your feelings, meaning you
are in control of your life and the events that come into your life at any
given moment. If there was one most important point in relation to raising
your vibration it would be to stay on top of your feelings and do not
allow yourself to feel negative or pessimistic. The better you feel about
yourself and your life the higher you will raise your vibration.

A Great Affirmation Video

2010-05-26T02:58:00.001-07:00

I will be out of pocket for sometime as I am going to the States welcome my newest grandchild. I will still be on the radio on June 8th and I will attempt a few articles for my blog while I'm away.

Meanwhile, if you ever wondered how to affirm and appreciate your life, check out this video

I Looked Good when I Left the House!

2010-05-24T01:51:00.000-07:00

Have you ever prepared yourself to go somewhere, styled your hair just right, put on your favorite best looking outfit, applied your make-up perfectly, adorned yourself with jewels and walked out of the house feeling like you really really looked good, that you were on top of the world and you were really hot, but then....; you stepped out into the public eye and instantly you felt as if you had done nothing with your appearance and you now look like crap!

What happened? You looked great when you left the house but then you noticed someone that you believed looked better. You began to judge yourself as ugly, fat, old, well basically unattractive. And this occurs even more rapidly when your significant other shoots a pleasurable glance at someone else you believe is more attractive than you. What's with him/her, you really spent time making yourself look great and he/she is checking someone else out. You become certain that he/she is measuring you against or comparing you with this more attractive person. You may be certain that the real issue is your significant other is looking for someone better looking than you and you may be entertaining thoughts that he/she is on the way out.

Even worse you scan the people and begin calculating who is more or less attractive than you. You notice someone you are sure is more attractive than you and you watch who looks their way and even worse you watch your significant other to see if he/she is lusting after this person. And then you become certain that other's opinions of you are highly negative. You are certain that they are thinking that you are unattractive.

Is the problem that you are just an unattractive person and you need to do something about it? Is the problem that your significant other is looking for someone else more attractive and you are painfully aware of this?

Neither of these things are the problem. The problem is your self-esteem, you self-view and your self-judgment. You were fine when the only opinion that mattered, at home alone, was yours. But as soon as you entered the public eye you began to judge yourself and compare yourself with others. You then aloud, what you believed others were thinking about you, to infiltrate your thoughts and then tore yourself down. And you don't even know if they had an opinion in the first place.

How you view yourself, without the opinion of others, is very important. You think that others opinions of you, matter when they don't. Why should any ones opinion, but your own, matter? We believe societies ideas, beliefs and opinions of what is attractive and then begin comparing ourselves with this ideal.

I was surfing the Internet the other day and noticed that there were good many articles, along with photos, online about a Pierce Brosnan's wife, Keely Shaye-Smith. The critical focus; Keely's weight. I was annoyed at this focus and thought about how often this occurs, how often that people are focused on what they believe are flaws and what they believe is unattractive. It was stated that she is fighting the battle of the bulge; really, how do they know. How do they know that she even worries about it or is fighting against her weight. And if she decided her weight was a personal issue, she may manifest being thin.

Never mind that Keely has a great talent for working with people and causes, never mind that she is happily married to a gorgeous hunk, never mind that she is a great mother, has a beautiful delightful smile and spirit. She has obviously manifested an amazing life. Considering her interviews, opinions and views it is apparent that Keely has great self-esteem, is happy and centered. I was impressed that she sported a bikini, in public, with dignity.

When people read these postings about Keely and others, it only perpetuates the fear of being judged and compared. This kind of media just assures us that other peoples opinions matter. Furthermore there is more important things to focus on other than what we believe others are struggling with. And I reiterate, limit your viewing of media or you will find many negative thoughts launched.

Self-esteem comes from never entertaining another opinions and holding our opinion, of our self, as nothing less than divine. It comes from thinking or believing that we are nothing less than a beautiful

powerful, creative energy in physical form. It comes from knowing, without a doubt, that no ones opinion matters, about us, more than our own. Someones opinion of what kind of food tastes good, which is usually unimportant to you, is no different than someones opinion about how you look or who you are. It's just an opinion!

We never feel bad about ourselves because someone else is thinking negative things about us. We feel bad about ourselves because our opinion of our self is negative, because we are judging ourselves and comparing ourselves with others. And if we continue down this path we manifest ourselves in the view we have in our minds and we manifest thing like our significant other stepping out.

What we think on or believe is manifested.

It's time to realize that who we are was manifested out of how we think. So now it's time focus on how amazing, powerful, beautiful, and divine we are. A good place to start; think about what you would tell a child about themselves then tell yourself the same thing. Find a role model that exudes self-confidence, regardless of the public opinion on them, and focus on this. Write your list of things you appreciate about yourself, after all you write the negative list, in your head, of what you loath about yourself. And usually what you loath about yourself is something you believed someone else believed about you.

Stop comparing yourself with someone else you think is better. Compare yourself with yourself. Realize there is no one better than you only different and different is good. If there is something about someone else you admire and wish to be your experience then focus on the desired experience and manifest this. Pick and choose, from people you admire, the parts of their lives that you admire and desire to be your experience. There is a banquet of unlimited experiences that you can manifest as yours.

And when you leave the house looking and feeling good hold this feeling, regardless of the conditions and opinions around you, throughout your public experience.

Look at your reflection in a window and say, "Damn I look Good!"

Be Well

You Knew, as children, You were Demi-Gods

2010-05-21T01:17:00.000-07:00

Before you grew up, before they started telling you that you need to stop pretending and dreaming and that your dreaming is not reality you were a powerful manifesters. When you were young, before you started school, you lived in your imagination, pretended, and dreamed. You were great things in your imagination; a bird soaring over mountains and dipping down through waterfalls, a caped crusader preforming great feats, an astronaut exploring the universe, a sailor sailing to unknown islands full of wonder, and you were who you really are; a Demi-God who conjured up, in your mind, visualized, a world of wonder and possibilities. It's not a wonder that children frustrate adults, who have terminated their child like imagination, because instead of listening to their words of insistence to accept the cold hard "reality" of responsibility the children are busy in their minds visualizing their desired life experience. If children were left to their natural understanding of manifesting and of visualizing, where they do not believe in limitation, they would grow up to manifest an unlimited life experience. They would not accept the limited mass social belief that life is hard work, that reality is static, and they can only have so much.

As a child I was always dreaming. I was in my mind visualizing and creating amazing things. I played in the universe with my ideas ever expanding my sights and believing in the infinite possibilities. And I was constantly told to get my head out of the clouds, pay attention and stop dreaming. I was told that being an artist wasn't a real job and that I should buckle down in school, pay attention and earn credentials that would surely bring me a life of mediocrity, but assured security.

Many adults have had their imaginations squashed and therefore, having yet to learn that their imagination is vital and the key to manifesting their desired life experience, continue to squash the children's imaginations.

Our work, as adults who have had our imagination squelched, is to rekindle our dream life our imaginations. It times to go back and remember our dream life, remember how we believed in the infinite possibilities and pretend again. Pretend our desired life experience is already real until it becomes real. It is time to get lost, like we did as children, in our imagination.

Remember, before you were made to believe in self shame and limitation, when you didn't believe in a static reality, remember the richness of a magical journey in your mind where you soared without limits. Remember when you were able to see, visualize, in your mind yourself as who you really were.

I remembered being puzzled when adults would tell me what I was imagining wasn't real. I would be so deep in my dream and the adults would snap me out of it and tell me to accept reality. They would tell me that this they are presenting was reality and I should accept it. I remember standing there, still a little bit in my dream, and look at them thinking they were what wasn't real.

We have become so convinced that our reality is static and that there is nothing we can do to change it. However, what we don't realize is that the reality we are living was manifested or created out of our thoughts our beliefs of the past. Therefore we are able to manifest a more desired reality.

I remember, before I ever left the country eight years ago, having such a limited view of the possibilities. I never realized how infinite this world was or how infinite the possibilities were. I remember saying over and over that I wanted to go far away from the uncomfortable reality, of my family. I never said exactly how, I never even thought of the possibilities of just how I could manage this but I kept wishing to be far away. And low and behold a situation, without me every having to come up with the money, presented itself and I found myself traveling the world, far away from the old reality, and exploring the infinite world of possibilities.

Now, I know that the world is my oyster and I can manifest the desired reality I prefer. All I have to say, all you have to say is, "I want, I want, I want............" and never follow it by, "but...." A butt is just a fire that was squelched out.

Draw up and dream the desired reality you wish and say, "I want..........." over and over and then say, "Everything I want is on it's way"

Be Well

Becoming Addicted to New Thought

2010-05-18T05:05:00.000-07:00

Becoming addicted to anything happens when you continually partake of the thing repeatedly and over time you become addicted to that thing. We become addicted to negative thinking, drama, struggle, sorrow, anger, and suspicion for many reasons but mostly because it simply makes us feel.We may have felt like we have lost touch with our feelings. We can become numb and after a number of years of feeling this way we seek something that will make us feel something, anything. Like the child who behaves badly, doesn't care what kind of attention that is received, simply for attention. We know that those habitual negative thoughts make us feel. They get our adrenaline pumping and we feel better for having felt something. These thoughts often bring up anger which is a powerful emotion that can propel us into changing something in our lives.

Anger is actually better than any of the other so called negative emotions for it is an emotion that is above depression. Depression is debilitating but anger has power behind it.Unfortunately what people often do is repeat a loop back down to depression and back to anger because they are not comfortable with anger or someone else isn't. But anger is very important as a catalyst to move up to an emotion that will bring us closer to experiencing a good feeling emotion. At this point it’s important to exploit your anger. Do not allow what others think or your discomfort to pull you back to depression.

Stay angry for a while and then entertain better feeling thoughts.We become addicted to anger because it brings a powerful emotion and we feel better. Because before anger there was depression where you feel nothing, you just feel numb. But staying in anger does not bring us the good or positive emotion we so desperately seek. And eventually our thoughts return to anger out of addiction to them. Then we just don't realize we are thinking negatively, all we know is that we are feeling. This definitely is a focus in fear.

The good news is that can become addicted to new ways of thinking. It is a matter of continually talking about new thoughts such as love, joy, peace, unlimited opportunities. Think about the better feeling thoughts. Everything we feel started with a thought. Sometimes we think that our emotions bring the thoughts first. But really our thoughts started the emotions and then as the emotions get stronger they bring more thought.So, start with your thoughts. Write down everything good that has ever happened to you. Write down everything good that you desire. Write down what you appreciate.

Work your way up the feelings chart above. Locate what you are feeling/thinking and entertain thoughts on the emotion just above where you are and dwell there for a while and then up to the next feeling and on. Work your way up to feeling and thinking more positive and stick with it, eventually you will become addicted to the new thoughts.

Be Well

Nothing Changes until Something Changes

2010-05-17T01:45:00.000-07:00

Good day from my Skycastle in Germany where the sun finally decided to grace us with it's warmth and I am surely relieved. I have been very busy lately and unable to focus on usvisualeyes articles and I hope that you are doing well non-the-less.

It's amazing what occurs when you really focus on something you want. I wanted the joyful work and success within the Law of Attraction. I wanted to teach, guide and inspire other's to their greatness; I want to inspire others to the exhilaration of knowing that they can manifest the life experience they prefer. I have focused on this desire for many months and it is apparent that all

my focus is com-busting into matter. I have manifested my desire. Surely its just the beginning and there is much much more to come! However, the exhilaration of watching my focused attention, my thoughts, manifest into reality is no less than a testament to the process of the Law of Attraction.

Focused thought is how you manifest your desires. It is said that nothing changes until something changes. Often this is seen as a call to physical action and this is where people get hung up. This is actually a call for different thinking. Nothing changes until you change how you think. Changing how you think isn't as difficult as you might believe. Just deciding that it's easy is enough to begin the process. Say, "Its easy to change" Most people believe that change is difficult and therefore nothing changes. We have even heard people say, "No one really changes" These beliefs are the first thing to change. Say, "I am able to change"

Once you realize that you are able to change the next step is simply focusing on what you desire.

Oh, that word; simple. It is a matter of every time you find yourself indulging in wandering thoughts, entertaining tragic scenario thoughts, or thoughts of defeat or being overwhelmed; turn. Turn to the thoughts of what you desire. Choose one thought, one desire and focus on this. It's an easier process or training when you start with one desire instead of looking at the desire for the whole life experience. Because focusing on many things, at once, that you desire leaves to much room for wandering into a plethora of thoughts.

Choose one focus and it will be easier to return to that one thing you desire as your preferred experience. This is the training the way you begin to change how you think. Start small with something you want to change. Make a list of affirmative thoughts you can turn to when you wander away from the thoughts of your desire. The solution every time is to focus on what you want.

Most people go through their life desiring change, wanting so desperately for things to change without ever realizing that they must change how they think before anything changes. They whine, complain, pray in desperation for a better life pleading with God to make them happy, and they wait and they wait and they wait for something to change.

What are you waiting for? Somebody to knock at your door and say, "Here ya go, here's the life you desire" Are you waiting for authorization, approval, acceptance or the moment you might feel motivated. Motivation only comes when you feel inspired. You become inspired when you tease your mind with all the thrilling possibilities of an unlimited life experience. Inspiration comes when you have focused on your desired experience consistently causing your mind to expand with ideas!

Stepping out of your habit or routine thinking and introducing new and expanded ideas will stimulate your mind into an inspiration. Say you want to manifest a new work, job or career but have never really thought of what you might like to do. Start playing, in your mind, with different kinds of work. Choose something and roll it around in your mind and notice how it feels. Keep doing this with various career ideas until you hit upon something that excites your senses dramatically. Then start exploring the elements of that career. Do some research on that career and start focusing on those elements, seeing yourself preforming the functions within that career. And every time your thoughts are wandering bring yourself back to the thoughts of the career. When you feel the inspiration you will become motivated.

There is no sense nor does it work, to try to be motivated. Motivation does not occur, no matter what you do, if you are not inspired.

Change does and can occur. You must stop waiting to feel motivated and inspire yourself.

Change what you think about by turning to thoughts on what you desire. The solution to everything is to focus on what you want. When you find yourself racing from thought to thought seeking the relief to your problems, seeking the solution, seeking the fix turn to the thoughts of what you desire.

Start with one desire and return return return to those thoughts around that desire. If you find yourself saying, "Oh God what am I going to do about.................." the answer is focus on what you want every single time. It is pointless, unproductive and self defeating to continue to analyze your issue, turning it over and over in your mind looking for the answer and direction you should go to solve your issue.

The answer to every single question is, "Focus on what you want or desire"

Be Well

Unwanted job, relationship or living situation

2010-05-11T01:52:00.000-07:00

Good day to all from my Skycastle, in the clouds, in Germany. I trust that you are doing well and manifesting your preferred life experience. Today we are going to focus on manifesting a desired experience.

We can feel as though we are trapped in a job, relationship, or living situation. We struggle with thoughts of not wanting the experience, lamenting over our situation and siting the job/boss/ colleagues, the partner or the living situation for feeling trapped. We give others the power over our experience convinced that we have no other alternative. If you are focused on getting more of what you do not want you will get more or manifest more of what you do not want.

We seek out the things wrong with the person, job or living situation; make our chalk board marks against them all, in order to make our case to prove that the person, job or living situation is bad, wrong or unacceptable.

We build cases against the unwanted experience in order to validate why we must leave the experience and why we want something different. This is to prove that we are right in wanting to leave the unwanted experience so that we don’t have to take the responsibility for the dissolving of the situation; often manifesting being fired, left or kicked out of our living situation. When really, the fact is, that your desire not to be in the situation is all that is important and is enough reason for leaving. We look for reasons, in the person, job or situation, which are unacceptable to validate our desire to leave because we don’t believe that just our desire not to be there is acceptable. However, it’s not only acceptable it is the only thing that is important.

I was in a relationship once where I came to a point of realizing that I wasn’t experiencing the committed, loving and affectionate partnership I desired. First I tried to make my partner, by criticizing and manipulating, become what I desired. Then, meeting with his resistance, I began to make note of his lack, make my chalk board marks against him to build my case and validate my reasons for my eventual departure. I had believed that my desire for a more preferred relationship experience was not a good enough reason to leave. I didn’t believe I had the right to leave just because I desired to. I felt I had to build my case to validate leaving, so no one would blame me for not trying. They would blame him; I would be validated and released from all responsibility. When in fact, had I just manifested the preferred relationship experience in the first place none of this would be in play. Equally, had I visualize my relationship the way I preferred it to be, he may have just lined up with my desire and all would have fallen into place. I built my case, validated my departure and moved onto a few more like relationship before I realized what I was doing and finally manifested the desired relationship.

In our focus on what is unwanted in a job, relationship or living situation we are manifesting more of the unwanted. We think that calling attention to what is unwanted will either insure that it helps us in our case against the unwanted situation or that it will propel change. We point at the boss and say, “See how badly the boss treats the employees” We point at the partner and say, “See how badly my partner behaves towards me” We point at the living situation and say, “See how bad this living condition is” We do this because we think that calling attention to the unwanted will be what encourages it to change and to build our case against them to validate our desire for better or wanted experience.

Certainly, a better way to go about it all is to first intend to feel good no matter what is going on and second focus on that which you want. Find things or thoughts, every day, that make you feel good. Focus on what you want. If you are working a job that you don’t like, is unacceptable in its ethics, functions and income then visualize the situation the way you desire. Visualize the employer treating you well, valuing you and behaving ethically in all areas including compensating you well for your worth and skills to the company. Visualize yourself as an asset to the company, the employer pleased with you, your colleagues and you working well together and receiving compensation accordingly. Then say, “Everything I want is on its way” Because you see whether this is the job you will remain in or not the desired employment situation will be attracted to you because you have visualized it. In this visualization of a wanted employment experience the wanted employment experience will be drawn to you. If the present job cannot line up with your desire then you will be presented with an opportunity for a desired employment.

If you are in a relationship that you are unhappy with, is lacking commitment, love and affection then visualize the relationship as loving, committed, affectionate and strong. Visualize the relationship the way you desire it to be; see you and your partner behaving, towards each other, in a way that is romantic, loving, affectionate, committed playful and sexually satisfying. See your partner valuing you the way you desire, see your partner cherishing and adoring you the way you desire. See yourself experiencing the relationship that you desire. Then say, “Everything I want is on its way” Because you see whether this is relationship will remain or not the desired relationship situation will be attracted to you because you have visualized it. In this visualization of a wanted relationship experience the wanted relationship experience will be drawn to you. If the present partner cannot line up with your desire then you will be presented with an opportunity for a desired partner.

If you are in an unacceptable living situation, whether it be along with others or in quarters where you are unhappy then visualize the living situation the way you desire it to be. See yourself living happily, comfortably, cohesively and abundantly. Visualize your living situation they way you prefer. Then say, “Everything I want is on its way” Because you see whether this is living situation will remain or not the desired living situation will be attracted to you because you have visualized it. In this visualization of a wanted living experience the wanted living experience will be drawn to you. If the present living situation cannot line up with your desire then you will be presented with an opportunity for a desired living situation. .

Working too arduously to achieve wanted experience and taking life to seriously do not let in the natural resources that are there for you. We feel trapped because we believe in limitation. We believe that there is no other job, partner or living situation available out there for us. We think that if we give up what we have, as unacceptable as it might be, that we will suffer and be without. The opportunities for employment, partners and living situations are unlimited. There are billions and billions and billions of jobs/opportunities/options, possible partners and living situations.

The best way to go about it all is to first intend to feel good no matter what is going on; feeling good needs to be the primary goal. Find ways to feel a little better every day. Look for the wanted or positive aspects in your work relationship or living situation rather than looking for what is unwanted. It is most important to feel good and to feel good you must look for something that feels good. When you feel good all the wanted or desirable experience will be drawn to you.

The undesirable situation that you are living is causing you to know what you don’t want and sparking ideas of what you would prefer and a knowing of what you want. Take that preference, build it, visualize it until it is attracted to you and you have manifested the desired experience. Disallow thinking of tragic scenarios, of lack, of struggle and suffering. Thinking on lack, struggle and suffering is a focus that manifests more of the same and is born of fear and limited beliefs.

Think on abundance, freedom, pleasure and the infinite possibilities.

There is no need to validate what you desire. The fact that you desire it is enough. Sometimes, because we don’t have the courage to leave the unwanted situation the unwanted situation leaves us. You may want so badly to be released from the situation that you will be terminated, left or kicked out. Which is certainly one way to propel yourself out of unwanted experience. However, you will feel much more powerful and in control of your life experience if you make the choice of what you desire and manifest that. You are not trapped for being trapped means you have no choice and this is not so. There are unlimited choices in our world; draw them to you, attract them.

Focus on feeling good and what you want. Focus on thoughts that make you feel good. Note things in your work environment, relationship and living situation that you appreciate. In this you will emanate energy of wanted things that make you feel good and thus draw or attract more of wanted experience. Remember like attracts like. If you are thinking about wanted experience that is what is attracted and more of wanted experience is manifested. It is not possible to draw what you desire by thinking on or focusing on the undesirable; these energies do not match and are not aligned with each other. Thinking about what you do not want will only bring more of what you do not want.

First focus on feeling good and then focus on what you want; then what makes you feel good and what you want will be drawn to you. And as this occurs consistently the energy of feeling good and the focus on the desired will collect, building into a spiraling frenzy, until it is manifested into desired experience.

Your thoughts and beliefs are what manifest the life experience you are living. So pay attention to what you are thinking and believing. If what you are thinking or believing is of limited ideas then your life experience will be limited.

Think and believe without limits. The possibilities of joyful and abundant employment, relationship and living experience are infinite and unlimited.

Be Well

Love Michelle

How you Came to Your Beliefs and How to Change Them

2010-05-10T06:36:00.000-07:00

Everything we think or believe was told to us and then we told ourselves repeatedly; strengthening many untruths about who we are until we manifested those untruths. Who told you who you were, what you should do, be and have? Why do you believe their words?

Our beliefs came from social mores and ideals, from parents or family members, from religion and media and we absorbed these beliefs and ideals as our own truths. These subversive beliefs or ideals seeped into our minds in a quite covert and insidious way; through our youthful trust. When we were very young we believed and trusted that those of supposed wisdom, elders, parents, guardians, and clergy had a complete and deep understanding of life and that they, along with this understanding, would impart their wisdom with a our complete well-being in mind. We believed that those who came before us, the elders, knew who we were, should be, do and have and we trusted them to fill us in using their life wisdom. We took their beliefs as our own, never realizing that no one’s truth is anyone else’s.

First of all it came to my attention, early on in my life, that these supposed elder wise ones really didn’t know enough to even run their own lives in unlimited joy and abundance let alone my life. I realized that they did the best they could with what they knew. They too were imparted with their elder’s understanding of life and believed it all to be truth and so passed it on, whole heartedly believing, to me. It was not the betrayal I once believed it to be where they, with the malice of forethought or apathy, passed on bogus information to me causing my life to be defective.

It was however, insidious in the sense that we, as children, were completely unaware that we were being taught untruths, using fairy tales, stories, and limited or edited information. There is a great example of this type of teaching in the children’s book, “Rainbow Fish, the most beautiful fish in the world”

From Wikipedia

The story tells of a fish with shiny, multi-colored scales named Rainbow Fish. He is always fond of his scales. But one day, a small fish asks him if he could have one. Rainbow Fish refuses in a very rude way. The other fish are really upset about his behavior and don't want any more to play with him. (my note: I’ve read the book, Rainbow fish does not refuse in a very rude way, it is perceived as rude because the words are trying to tell us that we should always do what will make others happy, mostly in order that they like us or that we’ll have friends)

Feeling upset, his only friend left, the starfish, tells him to go visit the mysterious octopus for advice. Rainbow Fish finds the octopus and asks what he should do. The octopus tells him that he should share the beauty of his scales with his friends. (my note: octopus actually tells Rainbow fish to give all of his scales away or he will have no friends)

When he encounters the small fish a second time, the Rainbow Fish gives him one of his precious scales and, seeing the joy of this little fish, feels immediately much better. Very soon Rainbow Fish is surrounded by other fish requesting scales and he gives to each of them one of his shiny scales. (my note: he actually gives all of his scales away, but one, therefore is without his beautiful scales and now everybody likes him and feels better about their lack, because he is no longer beautiful (rich) as they are.

The author about his book: "Rainbow Fish has no political message. The story shows us the joy of sharing. We all enjoy making presents for Christmas or birthdays and we are feeling good doing so. I want to show to our children the positive aspect of sharing: To share does not only mean to give away something (what is quite hard for a child), but above all to make happy someone else - and itself. (my note: this is what I’m talking about. The author, being taught untruths in life, but believing them, believes wholeheartedly that what is being taught in the book is politically benign and that all that is being said is that it’s good to share. However, the actual message is that if you don’t give away everything you have then you will have no friends and you will be lonely.

Critics of the book believe that its main purpose is to promote the idea of socialism and income redistribution to small children, and to demonize the idea of individualism and personal property.^[1] It could be seen as promoting Communism.

The critics' claim^{[citation needed]} is that the story does not promote healthy sharing, but rather advances the idea of a socialist society where wealth is redistributed to the point where everyone has the same amount of wealth, and individualism and capitalism are wrong and should be shunned. These ideas, they argue, are in contrast with traditional American values, and are seen by some as a way to undermine them.^{[citation needed]}

Right-wing pundit Neal Boortz argues that the book is "insidious", because it "aims at human beings who are still at their most impressionable age.." and "too many American parents have no idea just what kind of message they're imparting..." because parents and teachers see the book as story with a "sharing and vanity moral" instead of the straightforward text of the material.

I read this book several times to a child, whose parents provided the book, before I suddenly became aware of its message and the insidious way it was teaching. Before you have judgment on my take of this book it should be read in full and understood that I am not anti-sharing. The method of teaching this book uses is the same method that was used on most of us growing up. We were made to feel guilty, bad and wrong for our individualism or personal desires; when our personal desires came from who we really are; our individualism. Thus we were chastised for being who we really were, encouraging us to deny and ignore our inner voice until we forgot who we really were and became what “they” desired us to be.

In Rainbow fish, he is encouraged to give all that he has away to those who do not have, whom believe that they cannot manifest what they desire; thus creating a situation (that is actually prevalent in our society) a handful of people who manifest greatly but are shamed into distributing what they have created, to others, making sure even those who do not manifest anything of great significance receive.

What this does in our society is first shame those who have manifested greatly, which is why many people have such an inner struggle over desiring more abundance. We have this idea that it is evil to be rich or abundant. The poor do not become poorer because the rich are getting richer. This is a belief that there is a limited supply of riches and therefore if a handful of people have then this causes others to be without. People are poor because it is what they have manifested, period. And the rich are demonized for manifesting great abundance. I shall write a book, to be read by adults and children, which have animal characters who know how to manifest greatly and teach others how to do the same, elevating them to their greatness creating a world scenario where everyone, because all have learned of their divine ability to manifest, lives the life experience they prefer and no longer feel the need to blame anyone person or institution for a unwanted poor life experience.

We have lost our voice, who we really were and spent decades trying to ignore who we really were, being who others thought we should be and within the conflict of trying to be something other than who we really were we degraded ourselves for not measuring up to the original design set down long ago; thus calling ourselves a failure.

We were talked into who we are.

It is time to talk yourself back to who you really are. It is time for recording over those old tapes, new messages, the messages of who we really are. Those old tapes play over and over reinforcing the untruths of our youth. Those old tapes are of someone else’s truths. If you have no individualism how can you know what “you” desire in turn how can you manifest the life experience you prefer.

One way is to inundate or indoctrinate yourself with readings and media that suggest a truth that matches, more closely, your truth; such as articles like this, videos (additionally a personal uvisualeyes video), recordings and teachings on the Law of Attraction. I spent a couple of years doing this. I did not give my attention to anything else other that the concept of the Law of Attraction. I actually spent eight months, six or seven hours a day watching and listening to the Law of Attraction teachings.

Another way you can begin to change the beliefs of your old tapes is to start questioning, when you are reading or watching media, the beliefs or ideas presented. Then begin to say to yourself, that’s not true, actually my truth is….thus defusing old beliefs. This actually, for me, happened naturally because I had indoctrinated myself with the Law of Attraction readings and media so heavily for so long.

One of the most profound messages I received in my studies was the statement, “You are NOT responsible for the life experience or manifestations of another:” This hit me like a ton of bricks considering I had spent my entire life, up to that point, believing that my mother’s life experience or manifestations was my responsibility; ever working diligently to change it for her, being and doing what I thought I should in order for her to be happy. Glad that’s over.

Additionally you can record over the old tapes by telling a new story; a new story of your life, beliefs and truths. Decide on what you desire, with new beliefs and write a new story of the life experience you prefer. Tell the story of who you really are.

Revise what beauty is, revise what strength is, revise what spirituality is, revise what abundance is, and revise your truth.

Return return return to who you really are; a great and powerful manifestor; divine source energy in physical form creating and manifesting amazing life experience.

Be Well

Love Michelle

The Evolution of Human Response and Practice

2010-05-08T02:18:00.000-07:00

Good day to all from my Skycastle in Germany where I prepare excitedly for the next step in my joyful journey as an inspirational/motivational speaker and teacher.

Todays article is about our development as humans from survival of the fittest to survival of the wisest---Deepak Chopra

This article is my take on this concept.

In the beginning of our human development we were focused in survival because we were not the most predatory creatures on earth. We needed to protect ourselves, either by fight or flight, in order to survive. It was a necessary response for survival. We acted, automatically and immediately, to a stimulus that was presented, without much thought. We responded with a fight or flight reaction and it was all about survival of the fittest. And now, with no predator after us, we still respond with the fight or flight, we are acting automatically and immediately with a defensive stance, being indifferent or overly nice, by passing that place between the catalyst and reaction. That place is calm insightful response. That place where we use our intuition, wisdom and observation. This is the place where we need to stop and just observe, without criticism, and without worrying of others opinions. Deepak Chopra calls it The Restful Awareness Response. We are on the cusp of Survival of the Wisest.

Evolution: A gradual process in which something changes into a different and usually more complex or better form. The process of developing, gradual development, change in the genetic composition of a population during successive generations, as a result of natural selection acting on the genetic variation among individuals, and resulting in the development of new species and the historical development of a related group of organisms; phylogeny.

We have gotten stuck in our early human development of fight or flight. Still feeling, on a genetic level that there is a predator awaiting us, fearful we remain in a state of constant alert of the dangers; therefore we engage in thoughts of our defense. These defense thoughts range from reviewing the exact words that you will wield if so-and-so says this or says that to what you will do if they do this or that. We entertain dreadful scenarios and how best to respond to protect ourselves from an onslaught of dreadful perpetrators, of course all the while not understanding that it was our own thoughts that manifested the attack; and most often the attack only took place in our minds. Non-the-less we have, in this state of defense, sparked the beginning of an unwanted manifestation. But because we did not understand our own power of manifesting, we site our anticipated scenarios as proof; we say, “See, I knew this would happen”

Still being caught up in survival, I believe, is the reason we have this tendency to listen more often or make a deity of the male energy. We call God a father, a man, in need of feeling secure, protected, and defended. We listen more seriously to the male speaker, guide or profit. Because Source or the Universe knows that we will listen or take more seriously, for learning, the male energy, the ascended male entity is sent. It matters not that most often the male entity is coming through a female, it is non-the-less male. This is because we are focused in survival and feel the need for the protective strength of the male energy. We must, for our evolvement, to come out of fear of survival, the need for brute force, protection and the need for defense, listen more often to the female energy of intuition, wisdom and grace.

"Both male and female qualities exist in the body. The male qualities are arrogance, strength, egoism, and fanaticism while the qualities of humility, reverence, devotion to God, beauty, and grace are the qualities of womanliness, the beautiful qualities. They male’s arrogant qualities want to control the beautiful female qualities and get on top of them--- By Bawa Muhaiyaddeen

I am not degrading the male counterpart for we need the balance and I am utterly stimulated by the powerful energy of the male.

I am speaking of how we tend to listen to that which is primarily a male direction, survival of the fittest, turning to physical strength for control rather than listening to a female direction because we embrace survival of the wisest, of getting on top of our thoughts to manifest that which we desire; and instead of controlling our manifestations of fear we must manifest the desired which has no need for control.

Although we have evolved as an organism we still are caught up in survival of the fittest. But we are on the cusp, what Deepak Chopra states, of survival of the wisest.

“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change”---Charles Darwin

The change is upon us, the change from survival of the fittest to the survival of the wisest.

There is a difference between being intelligent and being wise.

Intelligent: –adjective, having good understanding or a high mental capacity; quick to comprehend, as persons or animals:

Wise: –adjective, having the power of discerning and judging properly as to what is true or right; possessing discernment, judgment, or discretion.

The difference between having intelligence and being wise is the difference between possessing knowledge of the collegiate documentations of our world and possessing wisdom or deep understanding of our innate ability, being Source energy in physical form, to manifest what we desire with our thoughts rather than with physical force.

How can we manifest anything we desire if we are caught up in fight or flight, neither is a foundation of manifesting anything other than conflict? Being caught up in fight or flight, or survival, keeps you focused in survival. A focus in survival shall never be a foundation for manifesting a life experience we prefer because we shall be caught in a cycle of stimulus and reaction, stimulus and reaction focusing on that which we actually do not want.

Evolving is what manifesting is all about; moving past knee jerk reaction, in fear of survival, into that place of a calm insightful response.

How do you do this; by noticing the stimulus without criticism of the event/person, worrying not of other opinions and observe. This is the turning point from the knee jerk, early evolution, of engaging in the conflict to the calm insightful response; even knowing that a response is rarely even necessary.

It is the time to just observe and be curious of the event/incitement. Make a choice to just be curious, make your wise assessment from your intuition and move away from the incitement. When you engage in the incitement you fall back into fight or flight, into survival, and by pass your evolution of survival of the wisest.

From an intelligent stand point we think that we need to stop thinking or doing the unwanted thing, however for humans, this is a difficult processes. It is wiser, easier and more beneficial to replace the unwanted thought or action with the wanted thought or action.

Wisdom is ignoring fearful ideals and entertaining loving ideals. There is no need for courage within a life that focuses only on what is desired. Courage is only needed in making that step away from the unnecessary common belief of survival of the fittest to the needed less common belief of survival of the wisest.

We are on the cusp from believing we need physical brute strength to survive, using tools and weapons, to evolving into beings that understand that we create all matter from thought.

It is time to practice calm insightful response, furthermore practice the insight of knowing that a response isn’t always needed. Let the tendency of fight or flight fall away and embrace a tendency to observe, without opinion, and turn to your calm insight ever knowing that you have the ability to create/manifest the life experience, in your environment, that you desire.

There are an infinite number of realities occurring here, at the same time, manifested by each individual. Some are of hell and some are of heaven. The good news is that if your reality is of hell you have the ability to manifest a reality of heaven on earth.

You are the creator, the manifester of your reality. Use your calm insight of this and respond to the unwanted with thoughts of the wanted. Listen and observe the female energy of reverence and devotion to, who you really are, Source energy in physical form, wielding great power to manifest the life experience so desired.

The answer to every question is, “Focus on that which you desire”

Be Well

Love Michelle

Excerpted from my upcoming book, “The Answer to Every Question”

Placebo’s, Practice and Praise

2010-05-04T22:42:00.000-07:00

Good day to all from my Skycastle in Germany where winter, apparently with unfinished business, has reappeared. I woke this morning thinking I had somehow missed the summer and it was already winter again. Yikes, don’t want to do that!

Recently, I have been pondering the concepts of belief and thought how a belief is like a placebo. If you believe that something will affect your body, your life then it shall. Like the placebo.

Placebo: a substance having no pharmacological effect but given merely to satisfy a patient who supposes it to be a medicine; something of no intrinsic remedial value that is used to appease or reassure another.

We take a pill that we believe, because an authority/Dr. told us, will heal our afflictions. It matters not whether the pill was a placebo, a sugar tablet or an actual drug. If we believe the pill to be the drug we were told then the pill will heal us.

Everything is about belief, everything. Each belief you hold manifests into an experience in your life. Each statement you make whether positive or negative, to yourself expands; like a balloon as the energy of air is being blown into it, expands and when no more energy is needed for its full capacity, it burst into a great manifestation of noise. The energy of your thoughts, built one upon another, expanding and attracting like energies from the universe until no more energy is needed for its fulfillment burst into a great manifestation of matter, of experiences, of reality.

When you focus on thoughts of what you want the request of what you want, with its unique energy, it has been laid upon the Universes table as your order. The Universe picks up the vibration of that thought energy and begins to go to work on it, matching like energies to it. The more like thoughts you have the bigger the energy becomes and the Universe adds unto it again until the energy can’t help but to erupt into your manifestation.

Unfortunately what often happens is that the thinker, allowing their focus to wander and entertain fears, rescinds the request of the desire before it ever gets to build. The thinker begins to have thoughts or entertains beliefs such as, “But I can’t afford that” “That was a stupid idea” and “I’m not worthy of that” Thusly telling the Universe never mind and that the request has be taken off the table.

Another thing that takes place, that seizes the building of energies, is the practice of going from one desire, not focusing for any great length of time, to another and another and another; each time laying their request on the table, then snatching it back, lightly teasing the Universe, and then laying another on the table.

As well, the thinker, not realizing they are doing this and seeing nothing manifest, sites this as proof that The Phenomenon of Attraction does not work.

Just like the parent who implements a new way to respond to the unwanted behavior of a child, tries it for a short time with no result, then goes onto another new way to respond and repeats this over and over; thus deciding that nothing they have tried works so it must be futile and they give up; never realizing that their continuous negative, familiar and practiced response got results, although unwanted results. The fact is that the parent focuses diligently on the unwanted behavior of the child manifesting more of unwanted behavior; what if they put that kind of diligent focus on the wanted behavior of a child?

The answer every single time, too every question, is focus on that which you desire.

When I was raising my three children I practiced no response what so ever to the unwanted behavior of my children; I mean no response as in any facial expression, not looking at them and no emotional response. I just went about my business as usual. Oh yes, there were moments, when the child screaming at the top of their lungs, that it took everything I had to disallow myself an emotional response. But surely it wasn’t too long before they seized their tantrums. And because I diligently watched and listened for wanted behavior, calling great attention to the behavior, they would soon begin to dance and say, “Look at me mom, look at the good thing I’m doing” And oh what a delightful reaction I practiced, thus encouraging more of the wanted behavior. I practiced focus and thought on what I wanted. I talked to others, in the presence of my children, of wanted behavior of my children, that I recently witnessed; and my children beamed.

This is exactly what you can do for yourself. Let unwanted thoughts pass through, giving no emotion response to them, and focus on the positive good feeling thoughts, praising them and allowing yourself to have great emotional response to them.

Be your own witness, diligently watching and listening, to the things you appreciate about yourself, the positive thoughts that you have practiced, even if it was just a few minutes longer than usual, and the moments you told, out loud, your new story about how you desire your reality to be. Praise yourself for a desired behavior, thought or a realized manifestation.

You have manifested some wanted things and conditions; search them out, call them up and praise yourself for them.

Then stick your hand into the cookie jar and pull out another tasty idea or thought and focus on it, get emotional over it, sink your teeth into it and savor it. Roll it around in your mind adding more thoughts to it, of like kind, until it expands and explodes with great energy into matter, into your experience; then reach into the cookie jar for another.

It is why you are here; you are here to create and experience, create and experience, create and experience. What you create and experience is your choice. You have free will and a creative mind to manifest whatever you choose.

Choose thoughts of joy, love and abundance and you will experience joy, love and abundance.

What you believe manifest. Like the placebo effect, all you really have to do is believe and it will be.

Be Well

Questions, Answers and Joyous Manifestations

2010-05-04T01:00:00.000-07:00

Good day to all from my Skycastle in Germany where I am finding all my manifestations for my Tremble materializing. I have suddenly become so joyously busy with my work and I am excited.

I want to invite you to listen in on my talk show.Yes,you heard that right, I have my own talk show. Get all the juicy details about it by clicking on the following link http://www.blogtalkradio.com/uvisualeyes

Dear Michelle,

Congratulations on your website. You are a wonderful teacher and I am so lucky to have met you.

I have a question. I do believe that what you think is your reality. Could you go a little deeper into this concept? I put as much thought into my being successful and wealthy as a writer. This also includes having freedom, independence and being independently wealthy.

It is not happening and I am wondering if this is because I am not sure how to bring all these thoughts and feelings together. Especially because my reality is very much the opposite of what I want.

How do you visualize freedom and independence? How do you visualize hundreds of thousands of dollars in your checking account? How do you think these thoughts and feel them in your actions when you, in reality, don't have freedom and money? Such as something as simple as buying groceries or gas for your car? Thanks for any help you can give me as I am sure I am not the only person in this dilemma.

Dear JoAnna,

It does take practice to visualize a reality you prefer. When you are deep in the agony of an unwanted reality it seems utterly impossible to see beyond it and feel the joy of a wanted reality. It surely appears sometimes that your reality is set in stone and to believe in anything else irrational. Also I want to say that manifesting the reality you prefer does take some time, but there are things you can do to speed things up a little. In addition it’s very important that you do not allow yourself to want something in desperation. What I mean by this is that when you make your request avoid thinking things like please please, I need, where is it, why hasn’t it come, and what is wrong with me. These are needy desperate vibes and the universe is repelled because these thoughts do not match the vibration of your desires. Never say, “I need” only “I want”

First of all, every time a bill needs your attention; quickly, efficiently address it as well as possible. If you can only pay part, make that call and make arrangements. Then as soon as it’s done, quickly move into a focusing on what you want. In this situation focus on something that has nothing to do with the lack of something. Focus on something pleasant you like to do.

Anytime you know you have to address something unpleasant that has to do with you unwanted reality, do so quickly, efficiently and then move onto focusing on something that feels better.

Second, you have to go on a frenzy of appreciation, every time you feel yourself slipping into the tragic scenarios. List in your mind and or on paper everything you appreciate. Everything from the natural world to each little thing in your home that makes things easier is something you enjoy, or has a good feeling memory. List all the things about yourself and others that are wonderful like talents, skills, personality relationships.

Always say to yourself, “There is Always a Solution” and “I Always know what to do”

Say this, “Everything I want is on its way” Feel the joy of that statement.

Say it again, “Everything I want is on its way” Feel the Freedom of that experience.

Say it again, “Everything I want is on its way” Feel the excited expectation of that fact.

Write it out, “Everything I want is on its way” and post it all over your house.

Make yourself a vision board. Collect photos of things, places and activities you wish for the reality you prefer and attach them to a board. Keep the vision board where you can see it all the time.

Every time you feel bad, feel yourself slipping into the feeling of hopelessness, desperation or wandering through a tragic scenario feeling you don’t know what to do, the answer is, Focus on what you want.

Walk around pointing to things, even if it’s just in your mind, and saying, “I like that, I like that, I like that” Smile smile smile all the while. When you focus on what you want visualize how it looks, feel and sounds. At night I lay in bed and I visualize money stuffed in every closet, drawer and cranny in my home. There is so much money that I can’t close the drawers and doors and I smile and say, “Everything I want is on its ways”

Keep coming back to the articles here. Watch videos on youtube on manifesting. Read everything you can on manifesting and just know that Everything you want is on its way.

The intention is to accomplish the good feeling vibration of already having what you want. Everything is manifested first and mostly in thought before you ever see the result of your desire. Like a long flight, for most of the trip you are not where you desire to be, but you know that you are on your way (excited expectation) but at the end of the trip you are where you want to be.

Dear Michelle,

You are so gracious to take the time to give me the information that I need. Thank you so much.

I will treasure and USE all that you have given me.

I know I am at a turning point, one that I've reached many times before. I want to make sure this time I do not give up and return to the past.

Again thank you and I hope that many of your readers will use this information, too.

2010-05-03T02:51:00.001-07:00

Good day to all from my Skycastle in Germany where I am in the Joyous process of launching my website, usvisualeyes.com. Today I want to hear from you. After you review the following description of The Phenomenon of Attraction I invite you to ask me any question you would like and over the next few days I will address each question. You may ask several questions if you like.

I have renamed The Law of Attraction, The Phenomenon of Attraction for the energy of the definition of the word law is of limitation and control. The Phenomenon of Attraction is an inherent occurrence, within all humans, of manifesting in physical form that which is in mind. What you think about or believe is manifested into reality, be it wanted or unwanted. Unguided thought, or what I like to call idle thought, manifests an idol life. Whether you believe in The Phenomenon of Attraction or not you are manifesting continually, you cannot not manifest for your thoughts are forever in motion and creating your reality even when you are unaware of what you are thinking; which is called default manifesting.

You become what you think about. Like thoughts are attracted to one another, and a consistent thought, over time, manifest that which you think about. Like a magnet your thoughts attract other like thoughts and as they build into a fury of energy matter is created.

The phenomenon of Attraction is how you get the reality you experience. This is often a difficult pill to swallow, at first, because people want to point a finger or give authority over their life to something or someone else. It’s difficult for one to take responsibility for the unwanted experience of their life. However, eventually you will come to feel joy over this for you will know that you can manifest wanted, as you manifested unwanted, just as powerfully. There is no destiny set down by law or Source that you must live. There is no destiny of struggle or abundance where you are chosen, by Source to live one or the other.

The only difference between someone who experiences a life of abundance and someone who does not is the way they think and believe. What you believe is what you live. Reality is always moving and changing according to your thoughts. What you choose to observe or give your attention to sparks thought, and when continually entertained, over time and with great emotion, the thought grows into a manifestation.

The practice of visualizing with powerful emotion, the life experience you prefer, especially as if you are already experiencing the reality you desire, manifest the life you want.

Remember that “The answer to every question is; Focus on what you desire.” And, over time with practice, you will have the life experience you prefer. With this practice of continually, every time you find yourself wandering into tragic thoughts of an unwanted experience, bringing your focus back to that which you desire eventually your thoughts will remain on that which you want and your life experience will be of the joy and abundance you want.

Come on, I know you have questions. Hit me with your best shot!

Be Well

An Erection for Life, an Erection for Me!

2010-04-30T00:10:00.001-07:00

Good day to all from my Skycastle, my erection, where I feel this morning my bodies elated response to the love I have for myself and life.

Awww, it seems there is little else in this world that brings such a high to your body as an erection; especially when it’s an erection in response to you.

I know you are wondering, maybe with a little giggle, where I’m going with this. In meditation at 5:30 this morning I realized that the only thing we really need do is love self. The fulfillment and love of self is the only thing that is important. When you do only that which brings self joy, gives you pleasure, then you will love self.

Discard the idea that there is such thing as good or bad, right or wrong. We are so convinced that there are things we must do that, even though we do not want to do them, that are the right or good things to do. Doing something that is good for you on the other hand is certainly best. A highly detrimental belief is that there are things in this world we must do, whether we like it or not, because that’s just the way life is. We have convinced ourselves that life is hard and the sooner you get that, the sooner you will be better off.

The focus in my meditation this morning was on self-fulfillment and love of self. I visualized myself in my preferred life condition and in the perfect, strong youthful and joyful body. I let my body dissolve into the energy of the light of the universe and became one with it. I allowed myself to become nothing but pure positive Source energy and saw the eternalness, the un-limitedness of the universe and of myself. And I felt pure love for myself. And oh what an erection I had for life and myself. I had several full body and spirit orgasms from connecting to the unlimited energy of the universe of Source.

Erection: The firm and enlarged condition of a body organ or part when the erectile tissue surrounding it becomes filled with blood, especially such a condition of the penis or clitoris. An erection is the process of filling with blood.

The spiritual ecstasy of my meditation this morning sparked such joy and self love that it felt as if I had a beautiful, enlarged erection for life and for myself. My body, filled with life giving blood, was the erection.

So many things came to me this morning. I suddenly had this complete understanding, respect and honor for the penis. What a beautiful member responding to stimulating energy, to another human beings energy and beauty, and to life itself. Like a divining rod that responds to the energy of metal, the penis or clitoris responds to the pure positive Source energy of another physical being.

I realized the extreme importance of always and forever only doing what brings me joy, in that I love myself and emanate such pure love for all life that my life experience can’t help to be of pure ecstasy and joy.

In meditation I saw myself, my body, as one huge blood filled member responding to the energy of my, self love and source love. I was a penis or clitoris. What a joyful giggle that burst from me as I came out of meditation feeling such immense self and life love. This is remembering who you really are, pure positive love Source energy in a physical form.

In this realization, this morning, I knew that I never needed anyone to make me happy. I never need anyone else to tell me how grand, beautiful and divine I am. I know now that everything I need is within me. I can experience full and satisfying love without the use of others. I go on forever. I am energy, never dying, only changing form, eternally playing in the universe and soaring wherever brings me joy. I may choose to play with others, to enjoy their love and energy that will only bring me more joy, but I need not ever require them to bring me joy or happiness.

I need not seek another’s erection, or energy, to feel ecstasy, joy or worthiness for I am the erection

The power of self love is astounding. The stimulation, wrought from self love, creates a sensitivity in your body that responds to all of life with utter joy. Within self love everything you see, hear, taste, smell and touch moves through your body, in a wave that trembles your body with pure joyful ecstasy that in turn fills you with more love; more love for self, more love for Source, more love for life, more love for everything and everyone seen and not seen.

With this morning’s increased self love everything is brighter; the trees are greener, the sky bluer, the flowers more brilliant and the air more pure. Everything seems intensely surreal.

Surreal: having the disorienting, hallucinatory quality of a dream; unreal; fantastic

The experience of feeling that everything is surreal must be that you are realizing that what we think of as real is actually the dream. What is so called surreal is actually the reality we have become blind to seeing.

I recall a moment, ten years back, in my life that I experienced a feeling of what is called surreal. My daughter, at 19 and in the Navy, was wounded almost killed when the ship she was serving on, the USS Cole, was bombed by terrorist in the port of Yemen. I spent several days without word as to whether she was alive. Once I found that she was alive we went through the morning at a memorial for the lost shipmates and she returned home with me for a month of leave to recuperate from her physical, spiritual and emotional wounds. I remember, after she was safe and sleeping in our home, relaxing and sitting on the patio with several close women friends, having coffee. I looked around the yard, at the trees at the sky and at the women in total awe. Seeing the astounding look on my face they asked me what was going on. I was filled with such love and gratitude for the safety of my child. I was filled with such appreciation and love for everything around me and everything and everybody appeared surreal. It wasn’t feeling surreal, or like an unreal dream, it was feeling and seeing the reality of life. I felt like I had never seen those trees, the sky or these women before that moment. Really, I hadn’t. What we think is real is not and what we think of as not real is real when we really see.

When you love yourself and life the surreal-ness is the reality. I see myself and the world differently this morning. I see and feel the divinity of myself and the life all around me. I feel the part I am playing; a part of the whole energy of Source, living temporarily in this physical form, beautiful, divine, powerful, loving, and joyful erecting in response to all that is Source.

Become an a big beautiful divine loving joyful, blood and energy filled, erection responding to the teaming life all around and the love for self.

Allow yourself to love self! Do only that which brings you joy.

Be Well

Love Michelle

Incompatible Beliefs Hinders you from Becoming Successful

2010-04-29T01:08:00.000-07:00

Good day from my Skycastle in Germany where I enjoy the freedom for choice and the beautiful day reminds me of this.

Some time back I discovered a long standing issue of mine that I have struggled with for years; I have used other people’s behavior to validate my reason’s or excuses for why I am unable to be do or have what I desire. During this time, in turn I did not become, do or receive what I wanted. Because I believed that it was their behavior that hindered me, and since they continued the behavior, and I continued site their behavior, I was able to validate my failure. It was easy to testify the reason for my failure because the statistics proved my theory. But it only proved my theory because I believed that their behavior was the reason for my failure.

Case in point 1: My mother’s lifetime manifestations of illness, poverty and being a victim. It seemed, to me, that every time I got on a passionate roll in something I desired to do or be my mother would turn up in the hospital either from illness, a suicide attempt or a mental breakdown. Often she found herself, without money or employment, with nowhere to live having used up the willingness of people to help. In all of these manifested conditions she repeatedly stated her needy pathetic position hoping someone would feel guilty enough to rescue her. As her offspring I often felt guilty, after all she’s my mother.

So every time I wanted to do or be something my mother’s behavior reared its ugly head and my goals fell to the wayside. In turn I avoided any new project/goal because I believed if I started anything then my mother’s behavior would just end up destroying it anyway, so why bother. But like all creative people I could not put a lid on my ideas, desires to create and would start a project, all the while fearing that I would get “that call” of guilt, and I did, every time. Thus proving my statistic that I could not have the life I wanted because of my mother’s behavior. In this repeated scenario, because I believed it would happen, it continued to happen and I was able to validate my reasons for failure, testify that I could not have a happy life and was convinced that joy could not be experienced under some conditions.

There were incompatible beliefs. On one hand I believed I could do be and have everything I wanted and on the other hand I believed that my mother’s behavior had the power to put a halt to these manifestations. I was using her behavior as my excuse not to allow myself to soar. I was justifying my limitations.

Case in point 2: I always became fat, after four years of marriage, because my husband stopped having sex with me. This is almost the same scenario as the first. Yes I’ve been married several times and this came about because I would get to a point of proving that the present condition of the marriage, overweight and sexless, was his fault. After seeing that every time, at about the four year mark, the sex would stop and I would become overweight I deducted, after collecting the data, that indeed this would happen every time. I documented the statistics; marriage at the four year mark =no sex=fat woman. Because I believed this, now that I had the statistic, it occurred every time.

Again there were incompatible beliefs. On one hand I believed that it marriage could be different, after all I kept trying, and on the other hand I believed that eventually sex would be withdrawn and I would get fat. Of course this is quite a vicious cycle because the husband could validate, because I was fat, why he didn’t want to have sex.

I again was justifying my limitations and siting with what I believed was solid evidence that husbands stop having sex with you at a certain point and in turn you get fat. It was my excuse, again, not to soar.

Over and over I was testifying for my limitations. The incompatible beliefs through me out of alignment and thus I became limited. I believed in limitation.

What is interesting about this last case in point is that in my marriage now, at the four year mark I had anticipated somewhat the same occurrence. Well at the four year mark the sex was not withdrawn but I did gain a little weight; nothing like in the past. What is more interesting is that because I now do not believe so much in limitations and In my struggle to change my beliefs I have gone up and down slightly with my weight. It is a testament to believing for a while that I am unlimited and then defaulting back to believing in limitation; and my weight follows my thoughts up and down up and down. This is good news because this is showing me that what I think manifests and I am not limited.

No other persons experience ever need find its way into your experience. The only limitation that ever exists is the limitation you put on yourself. My weight is going down with every positive thought that I am unlimited. I have put my data, my justifications and my statistics away.

We often use the conditions of people and place as our excuse to why we are not happy; exchanging mates, friends, jobs or the city we live hoping that getting rid of what we believe makes us unhappy will change our life. However, we continue to take our beliefs of failure about the outside conditions with us, so nothing changes.

I can be do and have everything I desire, have the life experience I want, regardless of anybody’s behavior. I can be happy regardless of any condition and in turn the conditions change because I do not believe those conditions will affect me. My mother still struggles with being a victim (however she is a little better) and the husbands of the past still play out the same scenario in their marriages.

And I am still married (well past the four year mark) having a lot of great sex, I’m getting thinner by the thought and I am happy and hugely unlimited.

So if you are using other people’s opinions or behavior as an excuse to why you are not living the life experience you prefer you will never have the joyful life experience you prefer. No one is ever responsible for your unhappiness.

You are unlimited and there is nothing you can’t do be or have. What you believe is the key. Believe that you are unlimited, think without limits.

The Universe is the limit! How exciting to know that you can manifest everything you ever wanted to do, be and have.

And yes, people do change. I did.

Focus on what you want, stay out of other’s business and return return and return again to your powerful ability to manifest an unlimited joyful life experience.

The answer to every question is; focus on what you want.

Be Well

All you Need is Love

2010-04-28T01:34:00.000-07:00

Good day from my Skycastle in Germany where I am feeling the love; love for myself, everything and everybody. The light emanating through the window is clean, pure and life giving and I feel good.

Feeling good is the goal. Feeling good manifests all that we desire; good feelings steep within our spirit and bring out all the flavors of life. All of us desire to feel good all of the time. We spend so much time avoiding pain and discomfort and this is counterproductive. Avoiding pain is a focus on the pain that we are sure will come and we then measure our options that may help us dodge the pain. We seek comfort by seeking people, places and things that we are sure will be the antidote to our pain. This is a focus in fear.

Alternatively and often we note things to fret and agonize over. We create the disasters from this fretting and agonizing and then we run around trying to find ways to avoid the pain from the mess we manifested. All the while feeling bewildered as to why we are living such a painful life.

Some of our thoughts provide us with what we desire and some do not. We have a lot of indifferent thoughts; meaning some thoughts just pass through us eliciting little emotion which in turn manifests nothing of great significance accept it may be the beginning of a plethora or frenzy of like thoughts. Over time, continually entertained, these thoughts build to the point of manifesting something either wanted or unwanted depending on the frequency of the thought.

All thoughts have their own frequency and like frequencies are drawn together which build into a manifestation. We all have a governing thought; I am good, I am bad, life sucks, life is grand, I am abundant, I am poor. In essence your governing thought is coming from either fear or love. Since there is only fear and love and all other feeling stem from one or the other then it is easy to identify, at least broadly, what your governing thought is. Certainly most of us have thoughts in both fear and love however we all fall more to one or the other most often.

Thoughts instill emotions within us and thought plus emotion equals manifestation.

For the purpose of this articles intention we will, and should always, focus on the emotions within love. The following is but a few emotions that stem from love.

Love: Joy, abundance, appreciation, pleasure, amusement, animation, anticipation, bliss, charm, cheer, comfort, connected, delectation, delight, ecstasy, elation, exultation, exulting, excitement favorable, festivity, flavor, free, frolic, fruition, gaiety, gem, gladness, glee, good humor, gratification, hilarity, humor, indulgence, jubilance, juicy, lightness, liveliness, luxury, merriment, mirth, pride, pride and joy, positive, precious, purity, rapture, ravishment, refreshment, regalement, rejoicing, revelry, rich, satisfaction, treasure, treat, tremble, wonder, valuable, wellness.

To change your governing thought to love you must intentionally choose thoughts that are of love. First you must intentionally choose what you will observe because what you observe sets off thought. Make a choice to observe only things, people and places that please you. I know that many think that they should at least pay attention to the suffering in the world. Often people think that being happy while others are not is selfish and they feel uncomfortable or guilty. Stop it, just stop it because joining the misery, giving it your attention not only adds to the suffering and misery growing it bigger, it sets off thoughts within you that grow misery within you manifesting miserable experience. And you cannot possible inspire and spread love if you are suffering along with those who need an example of living a joyful life. Furthermore you are only responsible for your own condition. Just like in a family; if mama’s not happy no one is. You can only give what you have.

It’s not as hard as you think to observe what pleases you. I’ve said it before you can focus on the miserable conditions around, which often is done, or you can focus on the joyful conditions around you.

Talk to joyful happy people, watch only joyful, humorous, loving, positive, videos or shows and if there are none to view pick up a joyful book. Notice the beauty all around you. Listen and notice music that makes your spirit fly, Note the wonders within your own life, there are some. Appreciate what you have, know and are; your talents, your skills, your favorite clothing, your computer and the access it gives you to all kinds of other things to appreciate, enjoy and learn.

Go into a frenzy of love; I love my talent, I love my ability to see the beauty around me, I adore myself, I adore you, I love that I am always eager, I love the flavors of food, I love my garden, I love how free I am, I love my body, I love that Source is always within me and guides me, I love the balance in which the world functions, I love how different people are and the variety of experiences they offer, I love my comfy chair, I love my eagerness for new experience and adventure,

I appreciate those around me who offer me the opportunity to learn something new. I love the fervor within me for life, I love the colors of paint and flowers, I love my camera, I love how I may always see the wonder in everything I observe, I love freedom of having choices, I love Monday’s for its opportunity of a brand new start, I love music and how it may carry me on a delightful journey of joy, And I love that I am pure superlative energy in physical form, where Source moves within me for me and I can manifest everything I desire. Practice the frenzy of love often and eventually it will become your governing thought.

Tell a fresh story of your life, a greener story. Stop telling the worn out negative story of the past, it serves you not. Tell a greener new story, a lush, flavorful, joyful, blooming, growing, expanding, abundant, loving, fresh, free, appreciative, positive, adventurous, powerful, and successful. Tell your novel experience. I consistently…

Seek out things to love and enjoy. Never do anything unless it’s joyful. If it’s not joyful then wait until it is. In cases of dealing with present negative manifestations, quickly and efficiently attend to them, as well as you are presently able and then just as quickly move onto to something joyful, focus on love thought and emotions. Feeling good is the goal. When you feel good, having focused on joyful things, then all your manifestations will be of wanted and joyful things.

Choose love as your governing thought. Adore yourself, your worthiness and you divinity. There is nothing you cannot do be or have.

You are beautiful gorgeous loving powerful Source energy in physical form, so soar on the wings of love and manifest wonders.

All you need is love.

Be Well

Your Emotional Guidance System

2010-04-26T03:00:00.001-07:00

Good day to all from my Skycastle in Germany. The day is grand and I am excited to be back to our journey through manifesting after a lovely holiday in Croatia. I love exploring new countries. We met many people from various cultures and background and had a very interesting time.

Today we are going to explore our innate guidance. We look outside of ourselves for the guidance to what we should do, where we should go and who and what we should be. We think other’s and our mind are the tools that guide; when in fact we have an innate guidance within us that will tell us our best direction every single time. Considering others ideas on how we should live only clutter’s our minds with irrelevant data. Their data is not our own. Our minds are often busy calculating and evaluating data from others; weighing and picking through a plethora of opinions that have no relevance to our lives.

The innate inner guidance I am talking about is our emotions. There has always been this question, when considering whether to participate or continue to participate in a relationship, should I listen to my heart or my mind? You should always listen to your heart. Now the confusion that occurs when deciding to listen to your heart, especially where love is concerned, is that we are not listening to way we feel, putting aside the fact that you love said person, when you are involved in the relationship. The angst that many experience, when deciding whether to go forward into a relationship or call an end to a relationship, is not because you love this person so you are in conflict it is because you fear something in the absence of this relationship. You may fear being alone and the painful withdrawal, unreasonably believing that love will not present itself again or that you will cause said person pain. Instead of listening to how we feel within a relationship, we go outside our emotions either to our brain or to others collecting the data for our case. If you are very convinced that you love said person therefore deducting that you should be with the person you will collect data to prove you should be in the relationship. If you do not feel strong in your commitment within the relationship you seek, outside of your emotions, support in the direction you should go.

Our emotions tell us every single time whether we should follow through with something or not. Your emotions are your guide. It is important to pay attention to your emotions. When we are aligned with who we really are, when we are aligned with our Source we feel good. We feel good because we are in agreement with how Source feels about us and who we really are. When we feel bad it is because we are feeling, about ourselves, something that Source knows is not true.

When you feel bad it is an indication, every time, that you are thinking something that is untrue about yourself. In addition when your thoughts are of an unwanted thing then you will feel bad and that is your emotional indication that what you are thinking about is not what you want to manifest or who you are.

Forget about what is right or wrong, there is no such thing. The only questions you ever have to ask yourself when considering a direction is, “Does this decision grow me in the way I want? What decision will evolve me ever closer to the person I want to be? What decision will bring me joy?” Pay attention to how you feel when you consider each option. When you practice this method then your decision will always be what is called “right”

Considering others opinions will confuse you every time because their opinion is based on their lives and experience not yours. Others insist on their desires, either passively or aggressively, with their agenda. Others agenda’s for your life is their desire for you to make them feel good, to please them; and that is not your job. Nor could you possibly please everyone with an opinion.

Listening to others opinions pulls you out of alignment with yourself/Source. And when you are out of alignment you will manifest, every single time, that which you do not want.

I spent many many years doing and being what others wished me to be and do. I listened to what religion said was right and good. I listened to who I considered to be wiser than I. I listened to what the family believed I should do and tried, within all of these opinions, to be good and right; and never felt joy. Most of the time I just felt guilty for desiring something different than the masses. Sure I felt accepted, as I ran around in circles attempting to please everyone, but I never felt joy.

When I was persecuted for not giving up my life to take care of a family member, who had manifested illness their whole life in which my childhood was devoured, I felt guilt. The guilt was eating away at me each time I pulled away, argued my case in my head, and returned to caring for that family member because I allowed the guilt to guide me. It was their guilt not mine. My emotional guidance told me I was only responsible for manifesting my own joyful life but then in listening to others opinions I fell out of alignment and felt bad.

Guilt, fear, depression, anger and sadness are all emotional indications that what I am thinking or believing does not match what Source knows to be true.

When you are degrading, hating or judging yourself you are in conflict with what Source knows to be true and therefore you feel bad.

Pay attention to what your emotions are telling you. If you feel bad it is because you are thinking something untrue or unwanted. Recall, when you were a child, how you felt when someone scolded you telling you that you were wrong or bad; every time you were not bad or wrong you were only you. But receiving this information made you feel bad and wrong. The only reason you felt like a bad person was because you knew that it was not true. Because what you were hearing was in conflict with who you really are.

It is time to focus in on what makes you feel good, what brings you joy. If you think/believe only of what you want or what is joyful to you then you will manifest these things. What others think is absolutely not important.

Joy is the only worthy goal. Because within doing, being and having joyful things you are in alignment. And being in alignment is pure ecstasy. Being in alignment with Source and who you really are is what you want.

The answer to every question is, think only about what you want. Find a good feeling thought and hold it in your mind, feel it and then add another good feeling thought, feel it. As you do this more good feeling thoughts will naturally join and expand the good feeling.

Remember, if you are feeling bad then you are thinking or believing something unwanted and untrue.

Remember; who you really are, others opinion matter not, and the answer every single time is, focus on what you want; Return, return, return to the good feeling thought, return to thinking about that which you want to manifest. Let your emotions be your guide and the more you practice this the quicker you will return to feeling good and focusing on what you want to be your life experience; not others life experience.

Return to who you really are and good feelings will return to you.

Be Well

Love Michelle

Global Warming, Crisis Management and Manifesting

2010-04-21T03:15:00.000-07:00

Good day to all from my Skycastle in Germany where I am enjoying the warm sun, breeze and the song of the birds from my little room at the top of my Castle.

We will be off to Croatia bright and early tomorrow morning. Some thought that it wouldn't happen as they temporarily cancelled our flight due to the great co-creation of the volcanic eruption in Iceland. Thanks to our own intention of enjoying a holiday in Croatia we are ever moving closer to a little piece of paradise.

This experience brought to mind the mass fear, the co-creation in motion, which is occurring and has been for a while; Fear of Global Warming, due to increasing greenhouse gases resulting from human activity such as fossil fuel burning and deforestation.

There is much scientific research, analyses, calculations, data collections, speculations, assumptions and well, Fear that has been used to send us into a panic that we, as a human race, are destroying our earth. There is fear that the making of products that have a shelf life, we purchase and eventually makes its way to landfills will be our demise.

A new book of environmental fear has just been published call, “The Story of Stuff” Like every report there is always a little bit of truth mixed in with untruth. This particular report, “truth” warns us that our greediness for stuff will be our demise. It speaks of a cycle that is many people truth; we work to exhaustion only to return to home in front of the TV to hear reports about how we suck and must have the new stuff, so we go shopping for the new stuff and must return to working to exhaustion only to continue the cycle over and over again. The author speaks of the reverence that we must possess for our stuff in order that we do not blindly and wildly purchase stuff just to make ourselves feel better after hearing, from the media, we suck. Although many get caught up in this vicious cycle is, true, it is not the foundation of the issue. The author also speaks of how what we are doing to our environment is causing our illness’ namely cancer and things like being overweight. And from my reputation you know that I am not an advocate for TV but not for the same reason as the author, Annie Leonard, sites. Because it is not our environment that causes our afflictions it is our thoughts or our beliefs. And ultimately the media does illicit more fear within our minds that grows into more fearful beliefs and thoughts until we manifest something similar to that we viewed.

Certainly the purchase of stuff to sooth our fears and build confidence is not an advantageous way to feel good. Manifesting, in joy, the things we want is a much loftier pursuit and not for any of the reasons we are seeing in media advertising. Surely, having powerfully manifest the stuff I want, shall give me a sense of reverence automatically.

Well the next thing that Leonard speaks of is our habit of disposal, having no reverence, of our stuff; the landfill namely. This is where manifesting things that are green comes into play. I am an advocate for making things in a better way. We have, in the past, not given thought to how we make stuff and now are beginning to produce products in a much greener way. However, most of our action towards green building and producing was launched out of fear and panic of Global Warming and disease; this is never the right way. Anything that is motivated by fear turns out like we really want.

Furthermore, we, these very tiny beings, in the grand perspective of the universe, on our huge earth that is in constant motion of the renewal of everything with its original prime directive, for sustaining life forever on this planet, could possibly destroy Earth. In earth’s committed directive to sustain life on this planet forever there will be shifts, adjustment’s or changes to insure its continuation. Earth was manifested and created this way.

No doubt we are mucking up the earth a bit and certainly not to our advantage; and we are in a state of fear over this. Anything that we fear will grow. What we think about attracts more of what we are thinking about. You attract to you what you think about and if you fear consequences they shall be your consequences. If you fear that the chemical plant close by will cause you cancer you may manifest experiencing cancer. It’s not the chemical plant that brings this reality it is the fear. If you cannot get over the fear, then move.

When making a decision about your environment ask yourself what you want your experience, around you, to be. Logically if you desire clean water, then don’t muck it up. If you desire clean air don’t muck it up. If you desire clean cities, streets or lawns don’t muck it up. I am speaking of motivation. Be aware of your motivation. Motivation comes from inspiration. If you are inspired to experience clean air, water and land then are motivated to manifesting that around you. If you are motivated by fear, you will in perpetual fear frantically search for, outside of you, the actions’ you are assured will clean your environment so that you do not die of cancer or global warming; ever perpetuating a never ending and frightening scenario of keeping up with an unwanted co-manifestation; it’s called crisis management; cleaning up unwanted manifestations with panicked action.

Instead of crisis management it’s time to manifest differently, manifest what we desire as our experience.

If you are not experiencing the reality you prefer then manifest the reality you desire; not out of fear but out of the desire to experience a joyful reality. Don’t join the fear, helping grow fearful manifestations. Join the Utopia of a grand, beautiful, healthy, sustained earth. The energy of thought causes all fluctuation be it wanted or unwanted.

We as humans adjust to the unwanted things we have manifested rather than manifesting wanted things.

The shifts in the earth are a natural response toward the prime directive to insure the sustaining of life forever.

I have listened too many people ask this question, “In a “natural” disaster how could I possibly manifest not experiencing this? I am living in the area of its occurrence.”

If you did not think about, fear or believe in the idea that you will be devastated by a “natural” disaster then you would, at the moment it occurred, find yourself on a plane to somewhere else, or be somewhere else already. Everything, every event would line up, around you with your manifestation of what you desire to experience, and a sudden opportunity would present itself placing you elsewhere.

My husband and I did not think about or fear the economical down turn what-so-ever and this time period labeled one of the worst economical experiences, was our grandest, joyous abundant experience thus far. When it was believed that an “economical” disaster would devastate everyone we found ourselves on a plane to somewhere else, a reality of our making or of our manifestation.

Manifest only the reality you wish. Think not of what you do not want.

What shall be your prime directive.

My prime directive is to manifest, in whole, the experience around me that I choose; beautiful, colorful, clean, joyous, adventurous, abundant and with the intention of sustaining this experience, Forever!

Be Well

Love Michelle

P.S. See you on Monday! Going on Holiday!

Limitless Thought Manifests a Limitless Life

2010-04-19T01:41:00.001-07:00

Good day to all, from my Skycastle in Germany where the day is absolutely gorgeous; the bird’s sing, the sun shines and I love the sound of the village bells ringing in the distance.

We had a stunning afternoon, yesterday, lingering on the hill where an ancient castle sits majestically. I have already forgotten the name of the castle for it was not important. What was important was the warm sun, as we sat with our feet propped on an old stone wall, the tremendous view of the village, vineyards’ and hills as far as one could see. We sat absorbing the sun, the plethora of smiling villager’s, sweet on the spring, milling about and enjoying each other. Once again we enjoyed picking through our thoughts on the universe, life on this planet and the human experience.

It came to mind how often are thought’s, our beliefs are so limited. We had been discussing our desire to live in Greece. Awwww, to dwell in a home of ancient Greek architecture among the tropical foliage overlooking the clear blue green water and feel the warm salty breeze on my skin, it’s pure divinity. I long to trek down the hill climb into a boat and paddle over to the main island, to the village, and make my way through the market street’s shopping for whatever pleases me. I desire to dive into the cool blue water, absorb its therapeutic values and become cleansed once again. Water has long been my therapy. If I could not get to a body of water I filled a tub and lingered until I pruned. I look forward to sitting in my tropical Zen garden and spin a beautiful clay pot, play on my next book, shower out of doors and make love under the tropical stars. What a magnificent experience.

We spoke of our intention to one day dwell in our paradise. We spoke of this intention, with our belief of how long it would take to come to paradise to that one day. I looked at my beloved and I said, “Isn’t it interesting how we have decided, on any one dream, how long it should take. Why do we believe in this limitation? We look at some dream that we desire and, according to our present beliefs, we calculate how long it takes to experience that dream.

We have put limitations on manifestations” Beloved agreed.

We all look at something, a dream or a goal and according to what we believe calculate how long said dream will take to come to fruition. We look at all that’s involved; what it would take to make such a transition. We examine the finances, the opportunities and the work that it would entail and then calculate, often giving rise to doubt in the process, and come to our conclusion as to when the dream will be our experience. In the rise of doubt, because we are sure nothing comes without great dollars, hard work and permission; we see our dream only in the distance. We believe the manifestation will take much time, work and preparation. We believe anything outside of what we have manifested thus far must surely be difficult and take much time. We have manifested a limited belief.

Often people write down a timeline, whether in their minds or on paper, of how long it will take to obtain an experience preferred.

Desire---------details--------calculated time of arrival (usually many years)

Why not

Desire---------details---------any moment now. (Possibly next week)

There have been times in my life that I desired a change of some sort; to move, to divorce, to move on. Once I made the decision without pondering the possible difficulty, like a bullet I shot into the preferred experience. Once I made a decision, to move on from a marriage in a split second, and the next day having secured a U-Haul, a gang of family members’ and a box of heavy duty garbage bags, we in three hours packed all my stuff into bags, loaded them onto the U-Haul and I was on the road, with my children, to Austin. One day, one decision and my life experience was what I preferred. And oh what a ride I had.

It’s about the moment of decision. Deciding there is no limitation to what one can do or what the possibilities are.

Before we landed in Heilbronn Germany my Greek dream was just beginning. Knowing that our immediate future was Heilbronn I dreamed of the house that would be like Greek architecture. In my limited beliefs I had dreamed of having at least a white house with arches, a huge terrace, close to water and mountains, and a spacious open feel. I limited my dream quite a bit, settled for what I believed was possible, at this moment, and received exactly what I had dreamed.

In Heilbronn, surrounded by hills, we moved into a house about one mile from the river, it was large, white, had a huge terrace overlooking beautiful foliage; and as for the arches the house had one small arch over the bathroom door; one arch signifying my ability to manifest, signifying to me that I could have manifested something more to my preferred experience. Non-the-less, I had manifested. Had my vision been grander, more detailed and less limited I would have had many arches, lived on the river drawing my manifestation of my Greek dream closer.

We manifest only that which we believe is possible. Our beliefs are often very limited. We are sure there is some sort of limitation on how much money we can acquire, how many or what kinds of opportunities are available to “us” and how long any one dream will take to come into our experience. When all we really have to do is, want. We only have to desire, in full techno color detail, believing in its quick unhindered arrival, and it shall be manifested.

It is our belief in limitation that limits our possibilities. If you believe wholly that you will receive, dreaming in wild freedom, instantly the desired experience, the experience shall be yours now!

We believe that it takes time for our dreams to manifest, money to accomplish them and much preparation before. And it takes none of these.

If you stopped believing that it takes these things to come to the preferred life experience it would no longer be. Everything is mostly and primarily manifested with thought first then all else falls into alignment into the manifestation.

My husband and I, about three years ago, decided we wanted to live in Europe, soon, for a couple of years. We did not have the funds to do so, we did not specify where in Europe only that it should be soon and for a couple of years. One year later, without the funds to do so, he suddenly was given the opportunity by way of his employment and was sent to Germany; duration 18 months for sure, possibly five years. It has been an amazing experience. What a manifestation! Geez, what if we had said we wanted to live in Greece, entailing the unlimited details of our desired experience there and for an unlimited time? Uhm.

Upon the closing of our conversation in the garden’s of the castle we made a decision to manifest our preferred Greek experience immediately.

With utterly wild imagination detailing our vision of our preferred experience we have begun. We will collect photos of Greece, of the house we want, on the island we want, with the exact surroundings we desire and every detail, including the scent of the flowers, of the experience we desire in Greece. Together and separately we will visualize our desire. We will, having already begun, talk of it often discussing every detail, as if it is our experience now.

We shall never speak of the funds it should take, the specific opportunity that it should need, nor shall we believe in time. For we know that all it really takes is thought, visualization and emotionalization and it will manifest whenever we choose it to be so. We have done it before and we will do it again, and again and again.

When we live a life without limits we will have an unlimited life.

I shall keep you updated on our Greek manifestation.

Be Well

Love Michelle

I Think I’m a Bear!

2010-04-16T00:39:00.000-07:00

Good day to all from my Skycastle in Germany where the sun is already peeking out and I look forward to teaching my Friday art class. It’s a delightful class of German teenager’s who speak quite a bit of English and we have such a grand time creating art an trying to understand each other. Last class they taught me how to, with German etiquette, request that the class quiet down. “Fuel element quiet, bitte!” What a giggle we had over my pronunciation.

Last night my husband and I had such an amazing evening, as usual I made the welcome home meal, however I made it all a little more special. Instead of eating at our little bistro table I set the dining table with candles, wine and proper meal tools. We opted out of routine and had a beautiful conversation on the “The Phenomenon of Attraction” and its explanation of who God is and before we knew it, it was 11:00, an hour after our bedtime. I learned so much more about my husband, even after eight years of wedded bliss I am still learning more. I have a very different view of who God is and most of it I cannot really explain how I know. I go into meditation, contemplate/envision how infinite the universe is and things come to me. I plan to write an article, probably a series, on my explanation or understanding of the almighty. One of the topics we discussed was on the light and the dark, which by the way is most often thought of as good and bad, right and wrong, but this is not how it is.

It’s the Yin and the Yang; it is used to describe how polar or seemingly contrary forces are interconnected and interdependent in the natural world, and how they give rise to each other in turn; neither being better, right or good or worse, wrong or evil. In our conversation I suddenly told Jerome, “I think I’m a bear” He giggled and waited for the clarity, he knew was on its way, and just said, “Oh yea”

I then talked about how, all winter, I hunker down and hibernate. I hold up in my Skycastle, waiting, in the dark staying warm, for the storm to pass. I eat more (gaining a few pounds against the cold), I am less active and I see fewer people. I go inside and it’s the time of the ebb. Life is ebb and flow, light and dark, winter and summer, the Yin and Yang. I noticed that, like so many times I had once again labeled my dark, winter, my ebb as bad or more accurately; unproductive. I spoke of, to Jerome, that I felt like I had wasted much time this winter. I was just a bear.

Later upon analyzing my dark time I realized the natural complimentary polar of life. You must experience the Yin the dark time. The dark time is the time for the practice of introspection to look inside and examine one’s self. It is the time of rest, the ebb, Yin or dark, which one must experience in order that they meet the Yang or flow, the light with more clarity.

The time of ebb is no less important than the time of flow. Ebb is a productive time of introspection, rest and re-centering. It is a time of putting to rest the former or no longer valid ideas. It is a time for reconsidering your life and what is to be discarded for more understanding. Ebb is the time of withdrawal in order that you might reassess, with new information, your position and knowledge. Every day we reform our understanding and come to new conclusion or new truth. Yesterday’s truth was truth for yesterday. Today’s truth is now truth today; and it shall forever be so.

In the dark, winter, we withdraw and contemplate analyze and dream; and sometimes grieve. The dark times in our life are very important. It’s important not to discount our dark time for it is the time of much needed withdrawal from the active world.

In the dark we grieve a loss, we go inside for our understanding, our final analyses and then we emerge into the light, the spring, with a greater understanding, renewed, reborn, and re-centered and clarity is once again ours.

Aw, the light, the Yang, the flow, and the clarity what a marvelous and divine feeling. Certainly the light would not feel so good had we not experienced the dark. The light is our gift for having been in the dark.

In this cold and dark winter I waited for the light to come with much urgent anticipation and resistance and distaste for the dark. And I should not have. My dark time gave me time for contemplation, without outside influence, that brought me to clearer self understanding. I also forget just how productive I had actually been, in the dark, and my husband reminds me. In my hibernation, I had painted just about every wall in my house, painted or created several pieces of art for the walls, realized my Tremble and launched my uvisualeyes business in which I produced eight video’s (in the interim learned the computer programs photoshop and sony vegas) unfortunately learned about computer viruses, yuk, journaled and read a lot and came to a new understanding of self. Phew, that was a lot. Doesn’t sound like I rested much, I think it was the actions of being stir crazy in the dark confines of my cave. Non-the-less, I contemplated a lot. I contemplate a lot anyway.

Now I have emerged into the light into the flow. Spring is here and my body tingles with excitement and I open like a rose. My petals are new, supple, colorful, and brilliant. My arms wide open, extended to the sky, to the promise of a new day. I am, once again, blooming. My hibernation over, the dark passed into light and in the brilliance of the sunrise, I rejoice. I am flowing, my body is moving and I feel the stimulation/energy of the renewal of all life.

I am a river now; flowing, creating, expanding, emerging, evolving, beaming and blooming. I have many plans for the warm seasons. I shall be more than I have been before. I am more confident, clear and open to the opportunities sure to come my way.

I go out to meet the expanding world, the light and the beauty. I feel the joy of absorbing the resplendent life renewed.

My playground, is once again, lit by the radiance of a new day, and I shall fly, on my bike, through the warm air.

I thank the dark and embrace the light.

I’m glad I was a bear.

Enjoy, embrace and celebrate the light.

Be Well

Love Michelle

Never keep your “Fat Pants”, save for a, “Rainy Day”, buy “Health Insurance”check the box, on a form, “Single”

2010-04-15T01:00:00.000-07:00

Never keep your “Fat Pants”, worry about saving for a, “Rainy Day”, intentionally buy, “Health Insurance” and if at all possible don’t ever check the box, on a form, “Single” Inform the Universe that you expect to succeed.

Good day to all, from my Skycastle in Germany where the morning has begun with the promise of sunshine and bliss.

The title of today’s article may seem a little puzzling and at best, according to popular belief, unsound advice, but hang in there for clarity.

Today what we are talking about is not setting ourselves up for failure or attracting failure. In our habit of action and thought, every day, we may do things that seem logical, sound and responsible. However, often those things we do, that are considered responsible or logical are really opening our self to the event you are trying to avoid in the first place.

Never keep your “Fat Pants”: Keeping your fat pants, just in case you gain those few extra pounds back, sets you up to gain them back. Keeping them, just in case, tells the Universe that you are expecting to gain weight, you believe you will fail in remaining thin and therefore the former body condition is manifested.

Don’t expect weight gain expect to remain, or accomplish, your idea weight and it shall be. Besides, if need be, you can always buy stretch pants; they are cheap.

Never worry about saving for a “Rainy Day”: In our panic, or fear of survival, that we will be caught in a financial bind, some day, we save for that dooms day. Saving for the Rainy Day insures that Rainy Day will arrive. It tells the Universe that you are expecting to experience a desperate moment of a financial bind; you believe you will fail in remaining abundant and therefore the former lack of finances will be manifested.

So you might ask, “Shouldn’t I save money?” Yes, it is a beneficial thing to save money. However, the question is why you are saving money. Are you doing it with the panicked idea that you will suffer later if you don’t? Better reasons might be to save for something specifically desired, save money with the emotion that you enjoy having a private little stash (no not pot) that you can dip into whenever you like for a desired luxurious indulgent or get away; expectation of the desired instead of the undesired.

Never intentionally buy, “Health Insurance”: When I say intentionally I mean that in most cases of employment, at least in Europe, you have no choice on the matter. A monthly Health insurance payment is automatically deducted; from you pay check without choice, before you ever see the check.

So if you have the choice, buying health insurance, in fear of survival, insures that you will become ill. It tells the Universe that you expect, one day, that you will be hooked up to wires and tubes in a hospital bed, which you believe that inevitably your health will fail and it will be manifested. In buying health insurance you are assuring failure of health. Remember the effects of thought on your body article.

This is a scary one I know. Just believe in your health, the natural function and the forever-ness of your body. I don’t believe in ageing. By all scientific studies, a reason for our ageing has never been found; they just can’t explain this occurrence. Therefore it’s just accepted as part of being human. The reason you age is because you believe you will.

You celebrate birthdays marking the passing of time, acknowledging growing ever closer to the end. I avoid using the word that states your decline. That three letter word preceding the years you have been on this earth. I made a decision, not too long ago, that I shall never again celebrate a birthday and if I do I am going to celebrate it with becoming three years younger. I have stop telling people my age, asking other’s of theirs and watching, reading or viewing media that is focused in the declination of the body.

See your body as healthy, strong, and young always and it shall be.

I use the example, Never keep your “Fat Pants”, Never worry about saving for a “Rainy Day” and Never intentionally buy, “Health Insurance”: as a catalyst, to talk about, the habit of expecting to fail, although you may want to heed the advice non-the-less.

We do so many things, without knowing of their consequences, why because we don’t know that they have consequences and have come to believe in, like the Scouts of America, “Always be prepared” Now I’m not saying that you should never be prepared. Laying down a path to insure an anxiety free smooth sailing experience saves time and stress. I always prepare for an out of town/or country thoroughly. Traveling in itself requires preparation of arrangements, routes and needs along the way. Because you must have a reservation to fly, know where you are driving (if you have a destination in mind) and I haven’t seen a plane, train or automobile, yet, that has installed a medicine cabinet, vending machine or clothes closet; save a semi-truck.

What I’m saying here is that always being prepared, be it for thicker thighs, financial need, or failing health, or anything that you prepare for in fear that you will experience suffering in some way, insures that you will inevitably fail and need the backup, the safety net, and the insurance. Preparing for the “Just in Case” attracts or manifests the Case, the failure.

Expect to succeed, to be well, strong, light, and abundant and you will manifest these desirable conditions.

Now for the last one, the really fun one, if at all possible don’t ever check the box, on a form, “Single” If there is a box labeled “other” check that one. If there isn’t make your own box. I said, if at all possible because in some cases, not many, they must know you relationship status in order to submit the form. But I still question this rule. (Please Note; this only applies to those who desire to be in a relationship)

Can you guess why I say never check the box labeled, “Single”?

Yep because if you announce that you are single you are announcing, focusing on and accepting the unwanted condition of being single. You are confirming your status, which in turn brings it to your thoughts, and of course insures the continued single experience, manifesting more single life experience. If you desire a relationship, love, you must think differently. I say make up your own box, label it “Available” uh, well that might get you into trouble or could possibly be fun. Maybe a box labeled, “Expecting Mr/Ms Right”

The point is to put out there, announce, and affirm the possibilities and expectation of what you desire. Besides, why is your relationship status, contingent upon anything? Somehow it’s become important when is not.

In closing, I say it’s important to live without placing limits, and setting yourself up for failure. Become aware of those unconscious habitual thoughts and actions, and ask yourself whether these ideas or beliefs are beneficial and manifest what you desire; if they do not then discard them. What do you do to prepare for failure?

Replace thoughts of failure with thoughts of success, abundance, health and love.

The ramifications of thought are awesome and give you all that you desire.

Anytime you do anything, out of fear of survival, you just survive.

You want to Thrive in luscious abundance so think only of thriving.

Be Well

Love Michelle

An Unrestrained Life Journey is a Journey of Joy

2010-04-14T01:57:00.000-07:00

What does Joy mean? Joy means experiencing an unrestrained journey, void of hindrance and the freedom to create without retribution. It is liberty without terror or regret. Joy is being utterly aware that you are manifesting your life based on your specifications. It is the exalted voyage of personal permission to be who you are. This is joy.

An unrestrained journey is a journey where you have placed no limits. Joy is a life journey full of the unending possibilities, experiences and choices. Anytime you live life with the belief that there are limits or lack, you experience a life of limit and lack. In my contemplation on these concepts I realized that any rules or laws used to live by indicates limit.

Law: the principles and regulations established in a community by some authority and applicable to its people, whether in the form of legislation or of custom and policies recognized and enforced by judicial decision. A rule of conduct or procedure established by custom, (as in religion) agreement, or authority It is basically limitation.

As I thought about the limitation of law, I realized that the word Law, in Law of Attraction denotes limitation in its description. This does not invalidate the premises of The Law of Attraction for it is the way the universe works; like attracts like. However, I have decided to rename the concept as “The phenomenon of Attraction” The only so called law that exists is the assurance that you have free will. And both words free and will denotes no restriction and law obviously insists on restriction. And restriction is not freedom, therefore is not joy.

Some call The phenomenon of Attraction a miracle but it cannot be labeled a miracle when it’s how we get everything; desired and undesired. If The phenomenon of Attraction is, and it is, then it cannot be deemed as a miracle, it just is. Miracle by definition is a supernatural occurrence and by that definition our Source given natural ability to manifest cannot be defined as a miracle.

Miracle: an effect or extraordinary event in the physical world that surpasses all known human or natural powers and is ascribed to a supernatural cause.

This cannot be for we possess the ability to do anything, have anything and be anything that we choose. “All known human or natural powers” is the key phrase in this. Because we are not aware or believe that we possess the ability to manifest anything then we access the occurrence, not of our understanding, as a miracle. We ascribe anything outside of our belief or understanding as coming from a supernatural cause.

You might call the phenomenon of levitation a miracle. However, you possess the ability to levitate; when you believe can levitate. You might call the phenomenon of a sudden completer recovery of a so called incurable disease a miracle; yet you possess the ability to cure anything, when you believe you are able. You might call the phenomenon of living past the age of a hundred a miracle; yet you possess the ability to live forever, when you believe in the forever-ness of your body.

Some see a miracle as good luck. There is no luck, only manifestation of the wanted.

Joy is the accepted belief that you are able to manifest everything you desire. Source only wants one thing; for you to be happy and joyous. Source gave you the free will, the ability to manifest happiness and joy; whatever that means for you.

A Tremble is not your destiny it is the tool by which you experience trembling, joy. You will have many Trembles in your life time. When one Tremble becomes boring then you have learned all you may learn from that Tremble and it is time to move onto a new Tremble. A deeper meaning of Tremble: Experiencing a Tremble is experiencing you true self, your complete connection with Source, with you. When you are connected with who you really are, Source, then you Tremble in elated joy. In meditation, remembering my connection/enmeshment with Source and my Source abilities, I tremble with joy.

Joy is loving self completely unconditionally and with unabashed delight. To fall in love with self is the ultimate compliment to Source. You are pronouncing to yourself and Source, to the Universe that you embrace who you really are; joy, love and Source energy in physical form. You are accepting what Source intended, joy. You are accepting the divine fact that you are Source.

The universe does not make judgment on your thoughts, deciding which to pay attention to and grant desire. There is no distinction from the wanted or unwanted there is only response to thought period. When you are thinking and focusing on the unwanted it is attracted. When you are thinking and focusing on the wanted it is attracted. The Universe does not grant according to deserve-ability only on desirability.

Embracing yourself in love and joy embraces Source. Source/Me, Me/Source, they cannot be separated. Separation again denotes limitation. And Source has no limitation, for if Source did, all expansion would seize for that would strip us of our free will. And that cannot be.

You are divine, complete free will, love, pure Source energy. You are able to, with thought, manifest all that you desire.

What will make you feel joy, now? Now is all you really have, it is all there is. Think, Do and be whatever you choose, that will produce joy within you, now. If you do this in all your now’s, then all your now’s will be joyful and your joy will go on forever. And beloved doing what you choose that will produce joy within you shall never result in grave consequences for that is impossible in the experience of joy.

You are here to obtain understanding of who you really are, Source/Joy.

I wrote a love letter to myself last night, in the wee hours of the morning.

My Dearest Beautiful Michelle,

When I wake in the morning to your smiling face it brings me such joy. When I watch you paint or write something divinely unique I am in awe of your creativity.

I feel pure joy when you touch my skin with pleasure. I look forward, every day, to seeing your divine and sublime beauty, to hear you new ideas and know you a little more.

I am absolutely stunned that I get to spend the rest of this lifetime with you and to know that joy is mine for loving you.

Michelle you bring me joy.

You are a divine creature, powerful and majestic.

I am in love with you and shall be always and forever.

Forever yours,

Michelle

I ask you why this is utterly beautiful and perfectly acceptable when it comes from someone else, a lover who sees us this way, but most often not when it comes from self. Because we believe that it is a self-centered. We give authority on ourselves to others and we do not believe in our divinity. Yet you can believe, sometimes, in others divinity.

Fall in love with yourself for there is no greater love than love of self. When you love yourself then you cannot help but to see love in everything and everybody; you will love without limit or condition.

Believe in your Divinity.

Fall in love with yourself and a world of joy shall be yours.

Be Well

Love Michelle

Live Well, Love Much, Laugh Often

2010-04-13T01:56:00.000-07:00

Good day to all, from my Skycastle on another grand and glorious day in Germany. I want to take this opportunity, before moving into today’s article, to express appreciation. Thank you to all my readers, including the anonymous, for visiting my blog, commenting and allowing me to learn more through teaching. You are greatly appreciated.

That being said, today we will tour through living well, loving much and laughing often. Truly if you are loving much and laughing often you are living well.

What does living well mean? It might seem somewhat evasive and it is of course completely subjective. The meaning of living well certainly varies from person to person. We all want love, joy, abundance and health, but the specifics are personal. I want abundance in all aspects of my life. I want abundant love, joy, health and means. How that looks to each individual shall vary.

Awww to live well, what a delightful desire. To live well is to experience a life full of possibilities, to see our world as our playground, an unending glorious banquet of choices, and a universe of plenty for all and to appreciate and enjoy it all.

There was a day that I did not see life this way. I saw life as an obstacle course in which I worked diligently to figure out how best to navigate through, with as little pain as possible. This is called survival.

Live Well, Love Much, Laugh Often,

The American Psychologist Abraham Maslow, in 1943, proposed the theory on what motivates the human to anything. It’s called Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. Looking at the pyramid of needs you can see that it all begins at the bottom of the pyramid with meeting our basic survival needs, then works up to basically living in self-actualization. I agree with most of his theory however, I disagree with acceptance of facts, as he sees facts. Because really what Maslow is saying there is that we are suppose to come to accept reality as decided by the masses. Now if he were speaking of accepting the fact that we manifest our own reality, then I agreed; lest I digress.

Many people are hung up in survival/physiological and Safety, dabbling in Love/belonging. If you have ever questioned the concept that we must manifest great abundance, that we are suppose too, then take a look at Maslow’s chart and notice that you cannot progress up if you have not secured your financial life. If you are hung up in survival then all you do is survive, instead of thrive.

Living well means, seizing every moment of possibility. Living in the moment, the now, appreciating every second and refusing to allow yourself to lament over the past or future. It means noticing all the most glorious and divine elements of our world. You could stand on a street corner, give attention and focus to the poor begging, in guilt, or you could turn around and notice the lovers, caring not of anything else, kissing and appreciate this.

You could stand in your kitchen and notice, in disgust, the mess your children are making or notice and appreciate the joy on their faces for having left a mess around their grand creations.

You could stand in your yard and notice, in frustration, that your partner has not mowed the lawn yet or you could notice the fulfillment on your partner’s face for having focused on their Tremble instead.

Living well means seizing every opportunity to grow, learn, appreciate, enjoy and absorb the divine all around. It means seeing Monday morning; I do, as a new start, an opportunity to start over again with new possibilities. Yes I love Monday’s. I love Monday’s because it feels like opportunity to start over.

Living well means; greeting everything and everyone with such buoyant joy and appreciation, that your attitude is infectious. Greeting your partner, child or friend, every time, as if you had not seen them in ages, like your dog does every time you return home; his tail is wagging in such delight that you feel important and fully loved and appreciated.

No matter how busy I am in my day I stop at 4:00 and prepare for my husband’s arrival from work. Sometimes I lament for a short while because I have made my work, in my mind, critical; which it never should be. But then I quickly remind myself that it isn’t critical. I clean the kitchen, prepare a beautiful meal, put on soothing music (in the winter I light candles) make sure that I look like I haven’t been knee deep in work all day and I set a delightful table. When my husband arrives I run to him, wagging my tail, in complete elation of seeing his beautiful face, like I haven’t just seen him eight hours earlier. I kiss him, hug him, take his lunch bag and anything he is holding and ask of his day. I am showing utter joy and appreciation for him. I always thank him for returning home. At first my husband was a little bewildered at my appreciation for his return. After all he said, “I live here and where else would I go?” But he does have a choice. He now appreciates that I appreciate that he makes a choice to return and with excitement and anticipation he returns home; and often brings me flowers.

We should greet everything and everybody this way.

This is loving much, because in living well, we love much.

Love everything and everybody. Love yourself, who you are, what you bring to this world and how you bring it. Love that you love. Love your love.

I have an acronym for Love

L ift

O thers

V ivaciously and

E levate

In our appreciation and love for others we lift them, with vivacious joy and elevate them to their divinity. This goes for yourself as well.

Laughing often is important. It stimulates your cells, your body, increases endorphins which make you feel good, releases stress and makes a path for great manifestations. Before I met my husband, at the closing of raising my three children, I was a quit serious woman. I credited this seriousness to this condition; I felt I must maintain seriousness to assure that my children be guided well, were safe and understood the seriousness of life. Yuk! Thank Source I do not think this way any longer.

Upon meeting Jerome I was resistant, as well as intrigued, at his boyish unserious and unrestrained spirit of play. He is by all definitions a Jester. In the beginning I was annoyed that he so often was not serious, that he saw life as a playground and sometimes, truly, he was quit inappropriate. It was my issue not his. But over time, without small children just one big one, I loosened up. I began to let go of my seriousness, let go of my idea that if one is not serious one might be judged wrongly. I let go of thinking I could only accomplish my goals through serious, intense force and began enjoying the journey.

I began laughing more and joyously participating in Jerome’s playground. I remember the exact moment that I turned around. I had prepared a meal, along with the evening’s agenda, as it must go and waited seriously for my actor, Jerome, to come home and play his part as directed.

When he arrived I was stirring my brewing pots. He raced into the door and said, “BBBBaaaaabbbbby!” then raced to the stereo put on a piece of music, a love song he had stumbled upon, and grabbed me up close to slow dance to the love song; with an emotional tear in his eye and a intention to sit in the Jacuzzi, with me, sipping margaritas for the rest of the night and make love. Much to his dismay I seriously informed him of my agenda. He ignored my idea and continued to sway me to the music. Suddenly, to myself, I said, ‘what are you doing? This is an experience you have desired all your life. A man who, in love for you, wants to dance with you, love you and charm his way into your pants. And all you can think of is your serious agenda”

I then let the dinner dry up and let myself be swooned.

Then as we rolled around, under the covers, tickling, laughing and kissing the words to a song popped into my head an Elton John song;..Living like lovers, laughing like children, rolling like thunder under the covers.. .’ and I giggled aloud.

Laughing is an elixir a stimulation of the soul. It’s time to let go of being serious and laugh. Laugh until you cry, laugh until you can’t breathe, laugh until you pee your pants and laugh until you remember that laughing is life and joy. Laugh at yourself, your seriousness, your agenda, and your humanness.

I will end today’s article with a short story, one of many, which I wrote, many years back, about a transaction between myself and my oldest daughter.

It was a busy school morning in the Spring. I had been busy constantly through winter. Christmas exhausted me with all the baking and sewing. The Super Mom I was in those days did that to me. I was making lunches at a frantic pace. Kesha was yelling, "I can't find my socks. I was yelling, "There in your top drawer." Finally I had to go in her room and find them for her, since children alway's look for things in the sky and I never ever keep socks in the sky. Rustin was an infant and crying as such. I needed to feed him, but I was busy finding socks and making sandwiches.

Tina had been getting ready for her junior high day. She had come into the kitchen, several times, for assistance in her preparation. Since sh is the oldest I let her worry about herself as mothers quite often unfairly do. The rush against the school time clock was ticking. Kesha was finally dressed and at the table scarfing down her super sugar something or others. As I raced around the kitchen Kesha rattled on about third grade activities. I listened as best I could through the crying baby and Tina's, frustrated with her hair, teenage brush throwing the bathroom. I ran to get the baby and put him where I could see and talk to him. I continued making lunches and taking for granted that my oldest would remain tolerant as usual.

I dipped my knife into the mustard and turned to her Tina stomping into the kitchen. She began to announce her frustration, "Mom" she blurted, "This is all so unfair, you pay more attention to Kesha and Rustin" My own frustration mounted higher. Crying she continued, "You haven't been paying any attention to me" Waving her fist she said, "You don't spend time with me anymore." Well you know what happens to most of us when we hear those words; always, anymore, and never from a loved one. We become totally defensive. Soon I became, "MOTHER INADEQUATE" I stood in front of Tina, still holding the butter knife of mustard. Tina went on crying in her defense, "You never spend one minute with me." I said, "I do too. I have a million things to do around here." Tears welled in my eyes. I pointed at Tina with my knife, "I need help around here, maybe if you helped more I would have more time to spend with you" (Did I really say that, Yuk) Tina sobbed, "I help"

Crying, raising my knife in the air I said,"I spend a lot of with you" and I thrust my knife forward gesturing. The mustard came flying off the knife at my crying teenager and splat! The mustard landed on the front of her light blue shirt. Sobbing we both stopped, looked at the mustard, then at each other. I cried, "Oh sunshine I'm sorry" We then hugged and squeezed the mustard everywhere. We separated to see the mustard on ourselves, and with teary hysterical laughter, and at what had become the love between us.

Live Well, Love Much, Laugh Often

Be Well

Picking at the Scab

2010-04-12T01:10:00.000-07:00

Good day to all, from my Skycastle in Germany where unfortunately the sky is gray and I wait for the sun to reveal itself.

Today’s article is about picking at the past, memories of that unwanted experience, and at any undesirable present condition. We all have this propensity to pick at the unwanted memory, experience or condition. Like the scab on your body from a previous experience. We don’t like that it’s there and are uncomfortable with it, we don’t like how it looks and feels and know that it doesn’t reveal who we really are; divine, beautiful and perfect. We want the scab gone, like the past unwanted experience and the feelings that accompany them, so we pick at the scab. But picking at a scab, an old wound, only irritates it, reopens it and brings it back into our present experience.

It reminds me of a funny thing that happened a couple of years ago. I went to the doctor, here in Germany before I learned any German. I had injured my knee slipping on an icy sidewalk and I went to the doctor because the swelling was not going down. First of all before I continue, all over the same leg I have a birthmark and it looks like someone beat me.

Well the doctor, a sweet woman, didn’t speak a lot of English. I didn’t speak any German. She took a look at my leg, after we tried to discuss the problem with an English/German dictionary, and said, “Uh, um, you have angered your knee” I understood that she was saying that I have irritated my knee, but got a giggle out of it non-the-less. From then on my husband and I referred to irritation of any body part as angering it.

This is what we do to scabs, to memories and conditions, we anger them. We rile them; reopen them to harm us again. It is the same thing as resentment.

Resentment can be triggered by an emotionally disturbing experience that is being felt again or relived in the mind. When the person feeling resentment is directing the emotion at their self it appears as remorse.

Resentment is reliving the same experience over and over and over again. And of course it’s often reliving something undesirable and painful; picking at the scab reviving it to its original pain and condition; often to a worse state getting infected. In this action we are reigniting the thoughts and emotions, previously experienced and in turn keeping it active until it manifests something similar to the original experience. The wounds from the past, like a scab, left alone or put out of your mind heals and falls away.

Often the scab we are picking at is the wound that we carry about something someone else said about us. We carry the wounds of abandonment, criticism, guilt and rejection like a sack of rocks; carried heavy upon our back and it doesn’t occur to us to just drop the bag of rocks and move on. Some might call it our baggage.

Put the sack of rocks down. Replace the thoughts of the past with new and better thoughts. It is almost impossible to make yourself stop thinking about something in order to rid yourself of the thoughts. It’s much easier to just decide on something else better and grand to think about; and eventually, like the scab, the old thoughts fall away and are replaced with the new and better thoughts.

Why do we pick at the past, the scab of previous wounds or the unwanted memories; usually because the person that inflicted said wound had been deemed as an authority. We had given that person a lot of power. We had decided long ago that we should care about what others think and gave them the authority on us our lives. We considered what others thought of us as true. It judgment only angers us because deep in our spirit we know this judgment about us is not really true.

So each time we come upon a thought or experience, that reminded us of that past experience, we brought to mind the scenario of the past experience, relive it and continue to conduct our lives in the same way; because we believed the person we gave the authority to; be it a lover who decided we were not enough, the parent who decided we were inadequate, or the so called friend who criticized.

It’s time to lay the past to rest, “the you called” authority figures to their own business and let the scab heal. That Resentment, according to popular belief, hurts the other person is not true. Resentment only hurts you.

I am reminded of a scab/resentment I picked at for a long time, keeping it alive and active; my mother’s life long romance with being a victim and self hatred. Her constant manifestation of illness and constant attempted suicide’s preyed on my mind as often as she felt sorry for herself. I was consistently angry over the calls to rescue her, her threats of abandonment (suicide) even when I was a child, and the guilt I allowed myself to feel through it all. When my anger culminated into a rage, speaking and thinking of her behavior often I realized that I was reopening the scab and keeping it alive. I realized that in my expectation of her behavior I was co-creating, with her, the same experience over and over. I was participating and perpetuating her behavior. I was really just afraid. In my fear I drew her experience into mine. I expected she delivered. I so often worried that at any moment I would get another call, about her negative manifestations, that I did.

She, in her believed inability to create a happy life, thrived on the attention she got when ill in a hospital or recovering from a suicide attempt. She could only feel good about herself when others ran to her side, which to her meant they cared. She didn’t know how to feel good any other way. So when she felt bad she recalled how she was able to feel good, siting the past as proof, and re-created the situation. Don’t believe for a minute that I didn’t, almost every day since I was able to reach the kitchen cabinets that I did not try to help her. I encouraged her, cared for her and was her cheerleader for as long as I could remember. Ultimately it stole my childhood and much of my adulthood.

I finally made a decision to no longer entertain her negative possibilities. I made a decision to focus on my life and think of only that which I desired. I also visualized my mother healthy and happy. I did not talk to my mother for a period of time in order that I not focus on her unhappiness and get re-centered. I told her that I would no longer take care of her, I would no longer RSVP to her shows of illness or attempted suicides and until she made the decision to enter a hospital and get help I would not talk to her. It was difficult and I received much distain from family members. One family member passed onto me from another family member who actually said, “That’s blackmail” I told the messenger, “You bet it is”

Within months, my mom who had landed herself in a nursing home at age sixty after an attempted suicide took charge. She decided she would not die in a nursing home and made calls from her hospital room until she found a government assisted apartment complex that welcomed her. She arranged to enter a psychiatric hospital and received help. She recovered physically, started her mental recovery and moved into her own apartment, after years of being taken care of by her family, and is moving towards, little by little, a new way of thinking and living. She still struggles with her long ago physical illness that she manifested, but is ever moving closer and closer to becoming happy, healthy and self-reliant. She practices often thinking only of that which she desires and with all her might avoids picking the scab.

We talk now all the time. She appreciates that I insisted she stand on her own two feet. We talk all of the time about Law of Attraction and manifesting, she embraces the concepts, and is manifesting a life experience she desires. And she absolutely loves and watches the video I produced for her. Her Fantastic Life Video where she can see herself doing, being and having all that she desires.

And I am focusing on that which I desire for my experience. I no longer pick at the scab of my mother’s previous behavior. Truly until this moment that I translate to you the story of my mother I had not given thought or attention to the way it was for many years now.

In conclusion; pay attention to, only give thought to the now. Decide on what you will think about, how you want to feel and what you prefer as your life experience. Leave the scab alone and it will heal. Replace previous negative thoughts with new and exciting thoughts. Dwell in the possibilities, the visions of a beautiful joyful healthy abundant life.

The possibilities are unlimited, the experiences boundless and the joy is yours. You are divine energy in physical form. You are full of astounding ideas, magical inventions, and craftiness creations.

You are beautiful

Be Well

Love Michelle

The Dreamers of the World are Highly Important

2010-04-10T02:57:00.000-07:00

Good Day to all from my Skycastle in Germany. My heart is light my spirit of joy and I am always so excited to write another article.

This particular article is near and dear to my heart; Dreamers. I am a dreamer no doubt. I dream often of my preferred life experience. I see the life I want, in my mind, exactly the way I want it to manifest. I suppose that we are all dreamers really, to some extent. We dream of an abundant, joyful, and successful life. We dream of having the perfect lover for ourselves, we dream of having an abundant lifestyle, we dream of having a child or of our children being happy and healthy, we dream of the most fulfilling Tremble and we dream of living in a beautiful home.

It seems that the three main dreams are abundance, love and health, after all if you have these three then really what else to you need. In experiencing abundance we have the financial life that brings us the lifestyle we prefer, the means to buy the house we wish, and it probably means that you are practicing your Tremble with great success. In experiencing love we have the joy, peace and satisfaction. In experiencing great health we have the ability to do, physically, whatever we choose.

Awww, to dream of abundance, what a wonderful thing; not. Well what I really mean is that the hang ups around money, along with love and health, seem quit powerful within everyone. We have so many issues with money, so many false beliefs and worries. We truly want to have a lot of money, yet we believe that there is some sort of limit. We believe that there is a limitation on how much is available to us. We believe that because some others have so much money that it has left little for us. We believe that the money is running out in our world. We believe that having a lot of money makes you a snob, a bad person and that those who have a lot of money either don’t really deserve it, have obtained it in immoral ways, and are just lucky or it was just handed to them without earning or deserving. However, 95% of rich people obtained their money through honest ways, felt they deserved it, dreamed of having it, never believed that the opportunity to obtain money was limited, and are really quite nice people. The only difference between the millionaire and everyone else is that they had different beliefs about money. They didn’t do anything drastically different they thought or dreamed drastically different.

They dreamed of an abundant life experience, with the belief that there is enough money for all, that they deserved an abundant life, they saw themselves in their mind being abundant and they never never believed in poverty or lack.

Our belief in lack, that there isn’t enough to go around and some are chosen to receive while others are not, is our road block. This belief blocks us from receiving all that we desire.

Somehow many people have come to believe that the desire to have a lot of money is a shameful, selfish and a materialistic desire. I blame religion mostly. For if we do not have the funds to practice our Tremble our Source given purpose, how then might we do so. Source gave me a talent for art, you have seen many of my paintings on my articles, however if I did not have the funds to purchase the materials to practice that art how might I be able to do so. Before having any funds to speak of I was only able to draw on pieces of cardboard, paper bags and various scrapes of paper. I was very limited and certainly didn’t give me the opportunity to share my art with the world.

The desire for riches is not a shameful, selfish or materialistic aspiration. To be rich is to live fully, purposefully and have the ability to assist others with opportunities to do the same. I don’t believe, for one second, that Source intended any human to live in lack.

Lack: deficiency or absence of something needed, desirable, or customary: lack of money; lack of skill, something missing or needed.

I don’t for a second believe that Source intended for us to live in poverty experiencing hunger, homelessness and deprivation. Why would Source intend this? Some think that living within little means, is suppose to be character building. “The meek shall inherit the earth” by the way Meek in the Greek literature of the period, most often means gentle or soft.

Accepting and living within little means does not build character, per say, it roots you like a tree in your negative attitude and a negative attitude is never ever a good thing.

We are here to dream our life, using the Source given gift of Free Will, into a whole, colorful, satisfying, joyful, abundant, and powerful offering to the world. How pointless to just exist.

Dreaming, the love of our life, into manifestation is a beautiful, wondrous and completely possible. Unlike the belief that desiring abundance is selfish no one ever says that wanting the love of your life is selfish or shameful; thank Source. However, to some, it seems equally out of reach. Many believe that they don’t deserve love which ultimately is the saddest view or belief ever.

All deserve love, want love and can receive love. It is the most glorious dream of all, for living in Love brings everything else into manifestation. I have spoken before about how the love, Jerome, of my life came into being. For those who missed this particular submission here it is.

It reminds me of how I manifested my amazing husband. What’s this you say, manifesting a husband? It sounds like I, from cells or the elements of the earth, formed a man, never having existed before, into the being I call my husband; kind of. I sat down one day and made a list of what I wanted in a partner. I had already made a list, in the past, of what I didn’t want in a partner; that didn’t work because I was focused on what I didn’t want and got plenty of these things; alcoholics, addicts, womanizers, unavailable in every way and abusive. Blessed be the Universe, I don’t manifest those entities any longer.

In my list of what I wanted I wrote down everything; no holds bar, no lowering standards and certainly no limitation. My list was long, 35 or 40 attributes I wish my partner to have. Then, with joyful expectation, I put the list away and went about my daily life routine. I just knew that, “He” would round the corner at any moment. Low and behold, within weeks the charming, sexy, funny, smart, loyal, loving, handsome, supportive, joyous, giving, energetic entity, wrought from my joyous expectation, called, “Jerome” literally bounced into my experience. He really does bounce, like a ball of energy.

And I wondered why I had spent so much time stating to the Universe what I didn't want.

I had decided to no longer believe that I did not deserve love, that I would never find love and I dreamed, dreamed, and dreamed the love of my life into my life. Love is the magnet that draws all things wanted into our lives. The romantic love dreamers of the world builds our world into a loving place full of joy and possibilities.

I know it’s a tired cliché “You need to love yourself first” Visualize yourself how you know you are; beautiful, divine, sexy, loving, lovable and joyful. The energy of these qualities will illuminate your presence and draw or attract the love you desire into your life.

Oh yea, one more tired but true cliché, “Love makes the world go around.”

Good health is also a highly desired condition and is often believed to be hard to acquire. Yesterday’s article was mostly on the topic of health and how our thoughts manifest our bodily condition. And yes I have an old tired cliché on health. “At least you have your health” It could be said that good health is foundation for everything; because if you think about it if you are too ill to think or do then it becomes difficult to manifest anything else, although Stephen W. Hawking might disagree. He is truly a testament to what you can do with your mind. And believe it or not, if Hawking focused powerfully he could heal his body completely and manifest perfect health. Ohhh, that is so hard for people to believe. You are so sure that the reality you live is unchangeable. You are so sure that we have been afflicted with some diseases that we don’t have the means to heal.

I say that Source gave us or provided us with EVERYTHING we want and need, on this earth to heal EVERYTHING and thrive; be it mostly the power of thought to manifest a healthy body or the natural herbs provided for us to use to heal. Do not believe for a minute that Source through down a hand full of diseases, without the means to cure them, and said, “Ha, now try to live that way” Do not believe that Source intended the suffering of some and not others or believe that Source inflicts. Because Source is pure love Source does not play games. Source gave us Free Will and the means to use this gift. True love, Source love, only provides all that is good that we may thrive, not just survive.

What a grand and divine dream it is to visualize yourself healthy, abundant and loved. These are not ideas of foolishness they are sweet, ripe full ideas of the life Source intended.

The dreamers of the world; the architects, the writers, the artists, the actors, the dancers, the landscapers, the gardeners, the builders, the inventors, the parents, and the lovers build our world into a colorful, abundant, loving, beautiful, divine and magical playground. I really don’t want to imagine our world without the dreamers.

Be a dreamer

The Dreamers of the World are Highly Important.

Be Well

Who is in Charge your Body or your Mind

2010-04-09T07:16:00.000-07:00

Good Day to all, from my Skycastle, on another beautiful day in Germany. Wish I had gotten outside to enjoy the weather however, I had much play to attend here with my Tremble. That sounded a little funny. What are you playing with Michelle?

Today is a good day, a good day to talk about the consequences of thoughts on the health of our body. The body responds to our thoughts whether it is a purposeful thought or just an unconscious habitual thought. It’s those unconscious thoughts that get us in more trouble than any other thoughts because the unconscious thought is uncontrolled, unmonitored and has long ago been accepted as truth. Sometime back, when you were quit young, you learned a belief, a thought that became part of your beliefs system because others assured you of its validity. Few of us have thought to question these beliefs or thoughts, after all someone you probably trusted imparted this so called wisdom. Upon learning new thought and discovering the truth I had to rescind some of the things I taught my own three children. Literally, I called them up and said, “Remember when I always told you such and such, well I have discovered that I was incorrect and the truth is such and such” I have received mostly sighs of relief and acceptance of the new concept. One of my children said, “Ya know I really always thought so. I was right” I said, “You were right”

As we move through life we learn and grow as we understand more and more. I suspect I shall be rescinding more of my previous teachings, to my children, in the future as I learn and understand more.

Understanding how our thoughts effect or body is important. It isn’t so much that if you think of contracting some specific disease you shall, which does occur because you ponder something such as Cancer with all the fearful horror that is attached to that disease and it may grow in your body. It’s more that if you have rotten thoughts it shall express themselves by way of a rotten body.

Recall a previous article where it states that there are really only two emotions Love and Fear. All the thoughts that are attached to love shall manifest all desirable things including a healthy body. All the thoughts that are attached to fear shall manifest all undesirable things, including an unhealthy body.

Fear has actually caused people to die, in some cases instantly but in most cases over time, having entertained fearful thoughts.

The adrenaline rush you get, when watching a horror movie or having a nightmare, (or a wet dream, wink wink) where none of it is actually happening, is occurring because your mind believes it to be happening. Your mind believes your thoughts, whether real or imagined, and your body responds accordingly. It is why visualization works.

The body is fragile and absorbs the waves from thought. The body is the minion of the mind. Your mind gives your body the signals for everything. It shall do as you command.

However what is in your mind isn’t always a beneficial thing but non-the-less sends a signal to the body and the body obeys.

Over time, thinking and speaking of fearful things degrades your body. Because fearful thought is powerfully corrupt and powerfully corrupts your body.

Equally, over time, thinking and speaking of loving things builds your body into a healthy, strong youthful stature.

Your body responds to your thoughts. Everything you see when you look in the mirror was brought about by thought. The kind of wrinkles you see on your face are from specific kind of thoughts you have had in your mind. Don’t you know when you see the man with deep hard furrowed brow wrinkles, that he has thought many fearful thoughts? Equally, don’t you know when you see the eighty-five year old woman with a soft smooth face that she has thought many loving thoughts?

Let’s look for a moment at the many emotions listed under both Love and Fear

Love/ Joy, Kindness, Compassion, Abundance, Nurturing, Health, Care, Balance, Light

Fear/ Anger, Hate, Irritation, Lack, Neglect, Disease, Disregard, Imbalance, Heavy

These are but a few, but you can refer to them as we move along. If I am focused in Love holding only thoughts in Love then my body shall respond and become healthy, balanced, youthful, light and joyful.

If I am focused in Fear holding only thoughts of Fear then my body shall respond and become diseased, imbalanced, degenerative, heavy, sad and of poor immunity.

All bodily conditions are a result of our beliefs and thoughts.

Don’t be so sure that the overweight person just eats too much. Eating, what we have labeled too much may never cause weight gain if the person doing the eating only held thoughts in love as well as never believed that food causes weight gain. Everything is a result of what we believe.

If you believe completely that the body is the minion of the mind then you may command its obedience. My husband loves this. I have been disgruntled many times watching my husband seemingly demand, sometimes with an insistent pounding, the obedience of his body. Although physically pounding on your body in demand of its obedience isn’t exactly what we are speaking of here, it is however the embracing of the concept, somewhat, that your body is the minion of your mind. And by the way, my husband also talks to his body, sees his body, in his mind, as healthy, light and youthful, and insists on its obedience. He also tells his body, “You will obey me”

And my husband’s body, at an age further up than mine, is healthy, strong, light and oh my God.

Joyful thoughts manifest a joyful body. Abundant thoughts manifest an abundant body. Thoughts in love manifest a youthful, light, balanced and healthy body.

Nothing else is the cause of your body’s condition. Nothing, Nada, Zippo, Zilch, Nought The cause of your body’s condition is the holding of specific kind of thoughts in your mind.

So it’s time to think in Love. Love for yourself, others and your life. Appreciating everything, in every moment, will help you stay in thoughts of love. Wake every morning with thoughts of appreciation, count them through the day and before you go to sleep make a list of what you appreciate.

Appreciate appreciate appreciate, love, love love your body into youth, lightness, balance and health

Be Well

Love Michelle

Resistances, Focus and Practice

2010-04-08T02:31:00.000-07:00

Good Fantastic Morning to all, from my sunshiny skycastle, on what will prove to be a most glorious day.

Yesterday, around the hills of vineyards, I went bicycle riding for the first time since the snow has passed. What a resplendent experience as I raced down the hills feeling the utmost joy as if I were a child once again. I had forgotten how amazing it feels to pedal through the wind and, feeling that I would take flight any moment, be kissed by the warm sun. I asked myself why I am so resistant to climb onto the saddle of my trusted steel horse and fly through the village when it feels like freedom; when it assures me of my youth so often forgotten.

I am resistant because I forget, in my daily musts, that the world is my playground. I am resistant because going downhill is easy but always requires the uphill trudge and when you haven’t been climbing hills your thighs burn. I found myself, on the uphill, wishing that I could only ever fly downhill.

The experience reminded me how often we think we need to work so very hard. Our resistance to anything easy is powerful. We are so certain that if something is easy, not wrought from the sweat of our brow, then it must not be right or of value.
If we believe that we must work hard to have anything, of value, that we want then so shall it be. What we believe we must receive. So opposing to the belief that we can manifest anything we want by focusing on that which we want.
Remember though that all matter was first and mostly thought before it ever took form. The basketball player can become triumphant in his game, without so much practice, if the player visualizes, consistently, the successful action of a making a basket; interesting, success without so much hard work. More athletes’ practice visualization than you know. The mother who is able lift the car off of her child, when no amount of hard physical training could ever prepare her body to do so, because her desire for what she wanted was so powerful.

But then there is the stroke patient who may believe in full recovery after being told, by the “professionals” that act of walking shall never return. The patient, visualizing themselves walking, remembering themselves walking and feeling it occur in their mind, along with actual easy small steps increasing a little every day, once again walks. However, if this patient was resistant, believing the “professionals” assessment and believing that it’s just too hard or just simply believing it will take very very hard work then walking shall never occur or occur only after extreme hard work. Everything occurs from our believed thoughts.

Resistance: the act or power of resisting, opposing, or withstanding, the opposition offered by one thing, force, etc., to another.

So I then returned to thought of my resistance to venturing out on my bicycle. I think of the act of resistance in order to propel myself forward on a bike. It is a different subject in the sense that resistance is what makes the bike wheels turn. However, if I were of the belief that riding a bicycle in any way is easy. If I had rode my bike, over time (like the stroke patient) on a flat surface, where there is little resistance, all the while visualizing myself easily flying through the air, peddling easily be it uphill or down, one day it would be so.

It wouldn’t be hard work, I wouldn’t be resistant and I would fly like a youthful eagle through the hills of the vineyards.

I wouldn’t have had to give up anything, only ad something, ad visualizing myself riding a bike with ease and then I am inspired to easy little steps every day.

We are so sure that it takes hard physical forceful acts to accomplish anything. Why, because we are assured that this is the only way, by others who have only practiced this way. How painful it is to hear this, see others work so hard to acquire anything and believe that the road ahead is long and hard. How very disappointing to think that life has to be hard.

Millionaires don’t do something different, they think something different. They believe something different. They believe they will be rich. They see themselves, in their minds; visualize themselves being rich and successful. With powerful thoughtful visioning they felt themselves being doing and having that which they want. They disregarded the naysayers and forged a new right idea about who they were. They disregarded the idea that it takes hard painstaking work and perfect knowledge of the chosen career. They adopted a belief that I they are literally what they think, “right thinking” or “pure thought”

The purity of thought is thinking purely of your desires; visualizing often yourself as you desire to be. Pure thought is thinking only of the good desires or controlling your thoughts to be only of that which you desire to be your experience.

We are often lazy in our thinking. We let our minds wander about, fixing on nothing significant to our benefit or we wander into tragic scenarios of our demise and failure.

To manifest the life experience you wish for yourself you must focus on, think purely of and visualize yourself in the life experience you prefer. When what you call a problem arises, address what you can within the problem quickly, then quickly forget about it and move quickly into thinking only of that which you desire.

Give no attention to that which you do not desire.

Give no attention to the headlines of tragedy/fear for you only give it more power and bring it into your experience, into your thoughts, pushing your desires aside replacing them with fear and tragic manifestations.

Give no attention to programs that firmly state your position as a peasant

Peasant: a coarse, unsophisticated, boorish, uneducated person of little financial means.

Site, for a moment, how many programs in their portrayal of life, are focused on, talking of, engaging in unimportant and immature dialogue. They portray life, with people paying attention or arguing over unimportant details, keeping you focused in these things, in fears and hold you in the mediocre life of the masses.

The masses sit in front of their TV either only dreaming of something grand (without believing they could become) or receiving confirmation of their lot in life; which you know is undesirable, unacceptable and mediocre at best. But the constant viewing of this reality assures you of the same reality.

I do not watch, any longer, these programs. I do not watch the news, I do not read the headlines (unless it is of joyful manifestation) I just don’t engage in the things I desire not. I chose programs, videos or reading material that only perpetuates my desire to do, have and be what I desire to be. I chose to give my attention to things that elevate me to grand things and elevate me to high manifestations of my desires.

Oh I know that ask, “Shouldn’t I know what’s going on in the world?” No. Why? What is the point? Giving your attention to another’s manifestation only grows that manifestation. Like a war, the more who join the bigger it gets, the more powerfully it grows and the more validated it becomes. If you speak of the report of a victim you might think you must pay attention, give compassion and help. After all shouldn’t we offer compassion or assistance to those oh so unfortunate victims.

Yikes, be careful here in your assumption. A victim is a victim because of their thoughts that manifested such a position. They spent time fearing being victimized. They spent time believing they are less than what they really are. They were weak of mind of thought allowing fear to manifest an undesirable situation. They feared they would become victimized and the perpetrator, who gave thought to harm, smelled them coming. They were drawn together in a combustion. The victim attracted the perpetrator and the perpetrator attracted the victim; perfect synchronicity.

Giving your attention to, your energy of compassion only supports the victim to remain a victim. A strong person cannot help a weak person. A weak person must become strong on their own because in your assistance to a weak person you handicap them. You assure them they cannot do this on their own therefore they can never become strong. Although the perpetrator is of wrong thinking, granted, much more distain should be placed on the victim, for if there was not a victim there cannot be a perpetrator. The perpetrator would flail about the world finding no one person to harm; no victim to be drawn to.

Living your own life strong, joyful, abundant, divine and focused in your own business is an example. You only teach by example. My children do as I did not as I told them to do.

Pay attention to your thoughts and shift them, if they are not of purity, to that which is purity. I know you say, “Freaking hell, do you know how hard that is?” Oh I know, I have been in practice with this for some time. They say that idle hands are the devils workshop, maybe, but I say that idle thoughts are the devils workshop. That is if you believe in the devil, which I do not.

Every time you find yourself thinking of that which you do not desire, notice it and then remember what you desire. Trek through your mind and find the pure thought and dwell in this thought. More like thoughts will follow, if you stay focused there long enough and those pure thoughts will expand. It is practice. The more you do it the quicker and easier you will go to pure thought of what you desire.

When you have a Tremble, you quickly turn to the thoughts that will manifest your Tremble. When I find myself indulging in impure thought, allowing my mind to wander through muck and fear, which by the way paralyzes you, I notice without self-criticism, remind myself of my Tremble and its parts and quickly collect the pure thoughts that will manifest my Tremble. Sometimes I review a video on Law of Attraction, sometimes I review my uvisualeyes personal video with me having being and doing my Tremble, sometimes get to this blog and sometimes I do all of them; which refocuses me in my Tremble. And sometimes when I’m really having trouble focusing on that which I desire I have to do something physical before I can return to right thinking such as a run on the treadmill or housework which clears my mind, kind of like rebooting. I also meditate to clear my mind and reboot.

Nothing changes until something changes. I know it sounds kind of like a cliché and oh so simply stupid but non-the-less, like many clichés, it’s true.

Begin, if only for a half hour a day, to focus on only pure thought your Tremble. Here’s a thought, take that half hour out of your TV time (or whatever you do that is equally unbeneficial)

Little by little, practice by practice and step by step you will grow pure thought bigger than impure thought until impure thought falls away into the distant past.

It is possible. Believe me there was a day that I produced nothing but impure thought that manifested crap I did not desire. I went from project to project never finishing the last before going onto the next. My mind wandered from great idea to great idea fixing on nothing long enough to manifest anything great. I did, in the past, dwell in, fondled, and masturbated thoughts of fear, failure and self-hate.

Yikes, don’t want to do that anymore.

I thank you all for reading my articles for it perpetuates my focus in my Tremble.

Be Well
Love Michelle

No Past No Future, Just Now!

2010-04-06T02:55:00.001-07:00

It has come to my attention, again, that the fondling of the past and the fear of the future is prevalent focus of many people. I wrote much about fear of the future yesterday and will write more here today, but I will concentrate on the fondling of the past.

I have spoken many times about my past in order that I may use my past experience as a catapult to outline concerns of others.

I have experienced a childhood/and early adulthood that was no less than desirable or magical. It was full of turmoil and oppositions to a joyful life. Now knowing this doesn’t make the experiences of my past of no value. They have value in as far as they have help me define what I don’t want, but are not to be entertained repeatedly or fondled to death. Meaning if I ponder, lament and regurgitate the past it only serves to manifest more of the same experiences of the past and I live the same reality over and over again. Yikes! I don’t want that.

It can be helpful to acknowledge those experiences of the past that hang us up now, but only briefly and then it’s important to quickly move on to focusing on the present, focusing on the experience you desire to have now. Lamenting, speaking or focusing on what your parents said to you or what they did to you only serves to keep the effects of those past experiences alive and manifesting more of the same.
Some may think that in order to move forward that they must pick through the past to figure out how it all came to be. Not! Picking through the negative past brings up old pain, reinstates that pain and thought long enough on; manifests more of the same. Remember what I’ve said before; your brain does not know the difference between what you are imagining and what you are actually, at present, experiencing. When you are recalling and fondling negative past experience your brain believes, siting the strong emotion, that the past experience is occurring at present, thus, as in visualization/emotionalization, laying a foundation for an unwanted manifestation.
When we want to do something different but are afraid our brain wants to go back in time to site and validate your fear. Your mind wants to find evidence, in the past, that will confirm that what you fear will happen, if you do that thing you are thinking about, will not have a positive outcome. You remember that, when you or someone else tried that thing you are thinking about, it did not turn out well.
A good example would be deciding to allow yourself to be in love. In the past you have been in love and it turned out tragically. You experienced so much pain, after you chose to open your heart to love, that it has implanted the idea in your brain that love=pain.

So upon considering, allowing yourself to fall in love at present, fearing the pain, your mind travels back in time for evidence that indeed allowing yourself to fall in love is a bad idea. The trouble with is that it only perpetuates the same experience over and over. And if you decide to forget the past, for this moment, and leap into loves arms repetitive fearful thoughts of what happened the last time will eventually manifest the tragic painful end just like last time; because your brain does not know the difference between a past experience remembered and what is presently in your experience. Thought manifests your experience.

In the circumstance of using a positive past experience to heighten your good feeling thoughts this is beneficial. Certainly you want to remember positive past experience to help you manifest more of the same. Some people however live there wishing to relive that exact experience. Take heart there is so much more to experience. That positive past experience is not the last, or the good old days, it is one of many to come and more joyful than the last. Use good emotions from past positive recollection in order to identify magnify and expand positive emotion.
Another belief that many have is that they need to forgive, one by one, all the people in the past that harmed and caused them low self-esteem, lack of confidence or self-degradation in order that they be able to move forward and change these feelings about themselves. This is a fallacy, for what you give your attention to expands. If you focus on or think of the urgent need to forgive someone particular you are focused on, paying attention too, something you believe is lacking. Giving your attention to the element of forgiveness just keeps it all in play. It says, “I am a victim that needs retribution.” In the requirement to forgive you are confirming you are a victim; which will make you always, a victim.

Forget about forgiveness, for it is of the past, and focus on how you desire today to be. Confirm what and who you are today. Focus on the life experience you wish to manifest and yesterday will fall away. Yesterday is no longer important.
Now if you find yourself repeating a past practice of a particular habitual thought or emotion that keeps intruding on your wish to manifest something different then it would be helpful to go back in time to discover some details that began this habit. Ask yourself, when you are feeling that same negative feeling again, “What thought sparked that emotion” Once the thought is identified then trace it back to its origin and discount it. Then quickly and immediately replace that negative thought or belief with the positive, the antonym. It’s important not to spend a lot of time in the past.

Your power is in the now; not in the yesterdays or the preparation for the future. Take care of today and everything thereafter will follow suit.

Today, right now, this moment make a decision to focus on what you desire. Focus on the moment. Appreciate this moment. Eventually tomorrow will be this moment and again focus on this moment. Lament not of the past and fear not the future.

Fear of the future manifests a future of fear.
Joy of the now manifests another now of joy. And since all you really have is NOW, make the now joyful and all now’s to follow will be joyful.

Be Well
Love Michelle
