Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself

February 8th, 2012

The book this video is referring to hasn’t come out yet, so I’ve pre-ordered it. I’ll let you know what I think of it once I’ve read it.

But, somehow, this video spoke to me this morning and so I decided to post it here – just in case you needed to hear it too!

Love is All There is!

December 18th, 2011

This is a beautiful video on the characteristics of love…

Coming Out

May 20th, 2011

This post has been a long time coming – not just the post, but the actions behind it. I have long touted that one of my number one – if not my number one – value is Authenticity/Integrity. To me this means knowing who you are and being able to step into who you are and own it. When you do, all your actions and words match and are in alignment with that persona. What you see is what you get.

For several years now, I have tiptoed around the aspect of my business that I truly love and is a big part of me and who I am. I was worried about offending people (maybe?) and definitely I was worried that people wouldn’t like me anymore. OR they would think I had “fallen off the deep end” so to speak. Amazingly, (or not) this aspect of my business is also what my customers respond to with the most excitement. What is it, you ask? It is astrology.

I love it! I love the stories behind it, I love the stars and planets in the sky, I love the beautiful combination of science, math, psychology, philosophy and art that is astrology. I love to see it in action. It works! (doesn’t matter if you believe in it or not)

And the idea I had several years ago to combine astrology and life coaching can no longer be hidden. It just makes too much sense to me and to the clients I’ve used this with. With normal astrologers, you get your annual reading and don’t see or speak to them again until the following year or if something traumatic happens in your life. Life coaching provides this added element of helping people along the way. Astrology can provide the potential of your life – your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, life purpose, and more. It is all laid out there in the blueprint of your chart. What you choose to do with this potential is up to you because we are all given free will by the Divine. This is where the coaching comes in to help people take this potential and develop it in the most positive, effective and efficient manner. Why not take into account the “weather forecast” provided by astrology to help you determine when to make certain changes in your life? I see this as a beautiful marriage between two incredibly powerful disciplines. And there is no one else out there combining them in this way.

A year ago this coming week, I left my lucrative career in the corporate world to finally live the life I felt was truly mine. For years I felt I had been living two lives. I had one life in which I put on the persona of corporate consultant, getting up each morning and being the person I was expected to be by my clients and employers. And then outside of that world I was living my “real life” as a life coach, astrologer, student of spiritual paths, etc. Last year I finally reached a breaking point in which I could no longer live two lives. I needed to jump ship from the life that wasn’t “mine” and live the one that was. So, when I quit my job, I fully anticipated that I would be flung head-long into my new life. Only, it didn’t really happen like that. It was more a process – rather than jumping from one path to the other, I began to veer from one path to the other. It was a slow and arduous process and one in which I had to step out of my comfort zone daily to show a little bit more of who I really was to the world. Astrology was one of those things I kept leaving in my back pocket and only pulling out when I felt someone could “handle it”. This process truly felt as though I was giving birth! When I described it to a gay friend of mine, he said, “Of course, you’re coming out!” Yes! That makes so much sense!

No more! This way of coaching is too powerful not to share with the world. So, this blog will now become more of a personal blog covering all kinds of issues and interests from my point of view. My business is now: www.CoachingWithTheStars.com and I invite you to check it out. There’s not much there now, but it will be filling up fast.

I will also be offering a monthly conference call on what is going on in the heavens and how it is affecting us here on earth. If you are on my email list you will receive updates to this call and get the call-in information. If not, sign up here to receive updates and information on these calls:

Name
Email

You will be able to listen to the recording for 24 hours after the call and then you can purchase it for $5.55. The “Blissful Living” newsletter will begin to change over to a new format supporting this focus as well.

Be sure and “Like” me on Facebook as well: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/pages/Coaching-With-The-Stars/162169020509260

So, I have decided that this is the focus that my business needs to take – it is the only way I can live in integrity with who I am and what I believe, and truly practice what I preach which is that when you are doing what you uniquely came here to do and be, then you are providing a service to the world. The world is a better place for it. So, thanks for being a part of my community and I look forward to continuing my journey with your support and love!

Last Chance for Inner Guidance Teleclass

May 17th, 2011

Join me Tuesday, May 17th as we explore how you can access your inner guidance and use it to manifest  abundance and success in your life. As the earth goes through this shift and these changes, it is becoming increasingly important to get connected with our Source and follow the guidance we are meant to follow to become the people we are meant to be.

You are here to serve a purpose. You have an important role to play that no one else but you can do. The world needs you living your purposeful life and functioning in the highest most passionate way that you can.

Learn about your Source – who or what is it? Learn about “intuition”, guidance from your source and other forms of “knowing”.

Gain mastery over your emotions so that you can live in a state of inner peace and calm even through the chaos and turmoil that may be surrounding you.

Follow your inner guidance with surety and faith. You will learn how to distinguish this voice from the voice of your own ego, which likes to interfere! Know with certainty when you are “making things up” and when you are receiving a true message.

Know your unique method of receiving information. We are all unique and different and there are many ways we can receive information from Source. Learn the way that is best suited for you so that you can maximize the information you receive.

Heartbeat of Mother Earth in Honor of Earth Day

April 22nd, 2011

This is a beautiful video of drumming in honor of Earth day – feel the heartbeat of Mother Earth.

 


The drum connects our heart to the heart beat of Mother Earth…

There was a time when man took no more
than he needed
That time is gone…
There was a time when he gave something back
That time is gone…
There was a time when he worshipped the Creator
And honored Creation
That time too is gone…
And now the waters are polluted
Our natural resources are all but gone
And creation is dying…
It’s time…
To find our way back to the Earth.

What is Your Intuitive Type?

April 14th, 2011

I know there are many of you out there thinking, What is my Intuitive type? How would I know since I don’t even think I’m intuitive?” Well, let’s get rid of that myth right now! EVERYONE has intuitive abilities. We are born with them – Just like we’re all born with a brain.

Some of us may have more natural abilities and some of us exercise our abilities more so they get stronger, but we all have them. So I really would like to encourage those of you who think you don’t have them to start building your intuitive muscle!

Now, let’s see what type of intuitive you are. There are four main types and you probably are actually a combination of all of them, but there will most likely be 1 or 2 that stand out for you. These types are:

1) Visual or Clairvoyant

You are a visual intuitive is you can easily see pictures in your mind’s eye. When someone asks you to imagine something, it there in great detail for you.A more advanced visual intuitive might also be able to see auras around people, plants and animals. These are the people who say things like “I see what you mean.” or “That looks like a great idea.” Do you tend to need to see something in order to understand it or learn about it? If so, it is likely that you are a visual intuitive.

2) Auditory or Clairaudient

You are an auditory intuitive if you can easily hear things in your mind. You might easily remember conversations word-for-word or excel in music. You are the person who “hears” messages or words in your mind rather than seeing them. These are the people that say things like “I’m hearing you.” or “That sounds like a great idea.” It’s possible that if you are an auditory learner (someone who needs to hear an explanation of a lesson or new idea to understand it), you are likely an auditory intuitive.

3) Feeling or Clairsentient

These are the people who feel things in their bodies. They may get a stomach-ache when entering a room in which there’s been an argument. When making a decision, the wrong one might make them fell uptight, heart rate might go up and the right one might make them feel calm and centered. These are the people who use language like “I’ve got a felling about this.” or “I’m going with my gut on this one.”

4) Knowing or Claircognizant

These people fell as though the “just know” things. They can’t explain why – they are not necessarily “seeing”, “hearing” or “feeling” things… they just KNOW. There might even be a learning style that matches this type of person – they tend to just know the answers to things and can’t really explain how they came to the correct solution.


So have you come up with your type or combination of types? If so, you can work on improving them and the other types as well so that you can become a “well-rounded” intuitive! Check out my 4-week teleclass on this very topic here: SourceConnect: Access and Understand Your Inner GPS

Anything Is Possible

March 31st, 2011

What do science, spirituality and you have to do with each other? I’ve talked a little about this in some other blog posts. Today, I’d like to show you how science is starting to be able to prove that anything is possible.

The Zero-Point field is a phenomenon that scientists, especially quantum physicists have been buzzing about for years. It is a field of energy generated by all the particles of the universe. The energy there is the energy present in the emptiest state of space at the lowest possible energy, the closest that motion of subatomic matter gets to zero. You might think of it as the Force in Star Wars –it represents huge amounts of potential with no polarity or charge. However, attaching conditions to it can structure it. This field holds the potential of every atom. To bring this idea home to you, at any given moment you have before you an infinite number of possibilities. Where you choose to focus your consciousness is where that potential will manifest. So, the axiom ” What you focus on grows.” is not just New Age spiritual mumbo-jumbo, It’s really scientifically true.

Be very conscious of what you are focusing on and thinking about each moment. If you find you are focusing on negative thoughts or possibilities, immediately switch over to a positive thought or possibility.Make sure your actions are in congruence with those thought and that you are taking positive action towards the outcomes you are desiring. It really does work!

So, what does quantum physics do for us? It helps explain the possibilities. It keeps our left-brains happy. It helps them to know that there is possible a scientific explanation for all this woo-woo stuff. But it is a construct of our mind as well; and so it has limitations. I want you to stay in that field of possibilities as much as possible. So, let go of the model. My warning to you would be that while this is great for our left-brains, don’t run the risk of getting too attached to the science and theory of it. Because in order to make it work for us, we need to get out of our left brains and into our right brains…this is where many of the meditative and calming techniques I have been teaching you come in.

Keep up the good work!

3 Tips to Enhancing Your Intuition

March 23rd, 2011

Often people tell me they don’t think they are intuitive or psychic. Some people doubt these abilities even exist. The reality is that EVERYONE is intuitive! We all are born with this ability and use it to some extent or another.

Have you ever been thinking of someone only to have them call you shortly after? Have you ever had a bad feeling about going somewhere only to find out by not going you missed a disaster? Have you ever just had a “gut” feeling about someone, only to have that feeling play out?

The difference between people’s abilities is simply the amount of practice they’ve had with it. Psychics are simply (intuitive) people who have honed this skill like an athlete and can now use this skill at their command.

You can also practice this skill and apply it in your life. It doesn’t matter what your religious affiliation or spiritual belief system is. We all have this ability. In order to get started and move forward, here are three tips to enhance your intuition:

1.    Become Aware

Notice what you notice. Be calm and still and see what you see at any given moment, notice what you hear, notice the sensations in your body. Just being aware of you and your surroundings as much as possible, will start opening doors to your higher guidance. You’’ start to notice the differences in what you see hear and feel and what those differences mean to you. From that you will be able to apply what you’re learning to any given situation.

2.    Trust what you receive

When you start to notice what you are seeing, hearing and felling, you may get the sensation that you are getting a message from this divine guidance, but it can feel like you’re just making it up. One of the most difficult things is for people to trust the messages they are receiving. AS you begin to trust and act on the messages, more will come and you will get clarity around your own method and style of receiving information. The only caveat is that your guidance system will never tell you to harm yourself or others or tell you negative things, like “You’re not good enough.” That is one clear way to tell if the messages you are receiving are valid or not.

3.    Practice, Practice, Practice

Nothing beats practice. Just like any other muscle, the intuitive muscle needs to be exercised. Keep practicing. Try to see if you can tell who’s calling before picking up the ringing phone. Try to guess how many emails you have received before checking it. Make it fun!

When we access this higher intelligence, we are accessing the higher intelligence of the universe. This keeps us in contact with the Divine Intelligence and helps us to know it better. The more we practice, the closer we get to it, and then our lives start changing in ways we can’t even begin to imagine.
