“Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.” ~Job 22:28

Last week I was talking with Bryan about the oil spill happening in the Gulf of Mexico. I started to feel a sense of frustration, helplessness and hopelessness. I asked him, “What can we do when these crazy things happen which we feel we have no control over or ability to correct?”. He then reminded me of the most basic and true way to take control of our lives and heal our planet. He said, “We Can Decree!” This immediately brought my power back and inspired me to make this empowering video for you….

A decree is simply any statement, aligned with your heart and said out loud with athority, which affirms your desired state is here now. For example, if you choose to decree for the situation in the Gulf of Mexico you could say something like… “I decree purity and perfection and cleanliness in the Gulf of Mexico and all surrounding areas. I declare all life in this area is healthy and thriving. I demand all manifestations and actions which are not in the divine plan be dissolved into their native nothingness. And so it is! Amen!” It is powerful and easy to decree for and change your personal life circumstances, however, when it comes to something global it is important to unite with as many people as possible to pray, meditate, and decree for the best outcome. Even 1% of the population can dramatically shift our world circumstances. Check out whenonepercent.org to read studies done on the power meditation can have on reducing violence and war.

Prayer is another important piece, especially if you have a strong faith in a higher power, a Heavenly Father and/or Mother who loves you and guides you. Just as when you were young you would go to your own parents for support, praying to your Heavenly Parents for strength, support, and the highest good for humanity is a very wise, comforting and healing practice. It teaches you 2 very important virtues…. Trust and Humility.

I invoke and dream Awake the full ascension of planet Earth in this NOW!

For St. Patricks Day I enjoyed a fun vacation in Savannah Georgia where I visited my sister Rachel and her husband James. Here are a few fun things to do when you visit Savannah Georgia…

Savannah is a beautiful southern town with huge trees, old buildings, and rich, slightly haunted history. It is home to many good old boys, southern belles, and art students as it contains the prestigious art school, SCAD (The Savannah College of Art and Design).

Below is a video of my weekend with Daniel Vitalis and friends. On Saturday, Oct. 31, 2009, we attended Daniel’s 6 hour Elixir Craft Mastery course which was awesome! Then we went to a fun halloween party that evening and a nature walk and lecture with Daniel the next day…

P.S. Check out Daniel’s 6 part (6 hour) audio course on the power of Liquid Herbal Alchemy…

The big hit movie Avatar, directed by James Cameron, has been interpreted in many different ways and has stimulated much controversy. The New York Times article, “Opening Pandora’s Box: The Arguments Over Avatar,” expounds upon the uproar Avatar has caused in gender, racial, environmental and religious sectors. Everyone has a different take on the meaning of this movie. I have seen avatar 3 times so far. The first time I went with my family. Each member of my family had a different opinion as well. My sister Amy, who is proactive and organized, said it was way too long. My sister Rachel, a fabulous artist, said it had amazing graphics. My brother-in law James, a good old country boy, said he was glad it had a few explosions for the guys. Bryan, my nonchalant husband, said it was a pretty good movie. And as for me, Avatar touched the deepest part of my soul. It was a spiritually symbolic story representing everything that has been going on inside me and on our planet for the last few years. I think my first words after the movie finished were “WOW! That was an orgasmic experience!!” Here is my own personal synopsis of Avatar…

The main Character, Jake Sully, is living in Hell but doesn’t know it. He is living in a place filled with guns, wars, and devoid of beauty and connection. His body is deformed and he is paralyzed (spinal chord injury). This is all he knows about life. Through technology and his imagination, he receives a new body (his Avatar) and discovers a whole new magical world (Pandora). Once he commits to learning the ways of the Na’vi (the native people) he is given a guide who teaches him to understand “the flow of energy… the spirit of animals… a network of energy that flows through all living things” In his old world, he was taught that you had to be on guard because “every living thing wants to kill you and eat your eyes for jujubes” Neytiri, his guide, shows him a different point of view. First he must let go of all his old programming. As the Na’vi say, “it is hard to fill a cup which is already full.” He starts to discover how easy and beautiful life can be. He revels in his new body, which allows him to run, jump, and feel the sand beneath his feet. This is not his real body however, day after day he must return to his “reality.” And each time he does it becomes a more and more bleak place to be.

Oh how I relate to Jake. I too feel I am living in two worlds… Heaven and Hell. On his video log his words express my feelings clearly… “days are starting to blur together… everything is backward now… like out there is the true world and in here is the dream…. I don’t even remember my old life… I don’t know who I am anymore.” I have felt this same confusion going back and forth through my own consciousness of “reality.” My first reality is in my imagination, where everything is pristine and we have activated our divine blueprint and potential. I feel glimpses of immense peace and connection which the logical brain could never understand. And then there is my other reality, the reality we live in, where children are starving and men are fighting and radioactive water and waste is being poured down the drain. Globally and individually I feel people are waking up to this insanity and getting a glimpse of how good it could and should be… just like our friend Jake.

In Jake’s new world he learns of the divinity in everything and everyone. The Na’vi have a saying “I see you,” which means so much more than just physically seeing someone. It means to see into and understand the soul of the person you see. I experienced this phenomenon with my dear husband when we were still dating. We were in a movie theater with a mutual friend. All of a sudden we both turned to face each other and saw into each other’s souls! It is difficult to put into words how beautiful this moment was. It was as if our eyes grew twice their size and I could see the love that Bryan is. I fell in love with him for real in that moment. There was a magical vortex of energy connecting us. It was one of the most cosmic moments in my life!!

In the end Jake’s people try to destroy everything he has grown to know and love for the sake of power and money. The odds seem imposible but Jake decides to fight with the Na’vi and for his right to live this beautiful way of life. He takes courage and says, “Sometimes your whole life boils down to one insane move.” He asks the help of Eywa (the Goddess of the Na’vi), and when all hope was lost and defeat seemed inevitable, Eywa stepped in and won the battle for them. Just like in our own personal struggles and battles, grace is always required. We need grace to change our bodies and our world from one of destruction and hate, to one of beauty and love. Finally, Jake was able to leave the technocratic world behind forever and step into his new body and his new earth!! This is what touched me most, and this is the hope that sprouted inside my soul which made me cry for an hour after watching Avatar. The realization that we can, through the grace of God, fully step in to our new earth, both globally and personally.

“And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away… God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.” ~ Revelation 21:1 and 4

P.S. Please share your own thoughts and feelings on Avatar with me below. I look forward to hearing from you!

Yesterday was such a FABULOUS day!! I finally manifested some of my big desires and here is how I did it…

If you are taking all the right steps, saying all the right affirmations, thinking positively and still not manifesting your desires, there may be a few things blocking your progress. First, you may feel “unworthy” on some level. Confidence and self-love are crucial to manifestation. Second, you may be holding on too tightly to a certain outcome. The law of “non-resistance” and “non-attachment” play a big role in how quickly you manifest what you desire. A Course in Miracles states, “infinite patience is the only thing that gets immediate results.” Third, it may not be the right time for you. I strongly believe in “divine timing.” More often than not, however, the reason for delayed results in your manifestation is from some sort of physical or metaphysical clutter, habit, person or situation you are tolerating which is blocking your good from flowing into your life.

I encourage you to take a good look at your life; physically, emotionally, mentally, and in your relationships. Do you have something that is not aligned with your higher aspirations? If so, let it go. The results will be more than worth it!!

“It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exiting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power” ~Alan Cohen

Money you’ve been
the whore of the earth
You enslave mankind
from the moment of birth

You stimulate greed,
exhaustion and pain
You make me do things
that are totally lame

You give to the men
consumed with power
You starve little children
who suffer each hour

Now here I stand
looking at you
I must end this thing
so I can start new

Thanks to Morgana
I know that I can
Dump this impostor
and get a new man

My sexy new money
who follows God’s plan
Who loves and adores me
He’s my biggest fan!

His only desire
is to see me thrive
He provides what I need
so my spirit’s ALIVE!

Our relationship with money
is tangible and real
Let go of the monster
It’s time to heal

Bring in your Lover,
Goddess and Friend
The money who guides you
and gives with a grin

Then just relax,
and follow your leads
And abundance will flow
and you will be free!

How exciting!! My first ever guest blogger:) His name is Chuck Bluestein and he, like me, is passionate about and does extensive research on the topics of Health and Nutrition. Below he gives his opinion on complex carbs based on his research… I would love to hear your thoughts and feedback on my comments page! If you also have some truth to share which fits in with my theme, let me know. You could be a guest blogger too!

It is a myth that people eat complex carbs. Once I saw a video of a Buddhist monk in Japan eating complex carbs. My rule is that all rules have exceptions, except this one. Or all rules have exceptions including this one. But society was built on myths. It used to be a fact that the earth was flat until people learned that that was a myth. Then there was the fact that the sun orbited around the earth. When Copernicus first said that this was false, the Church killed him. The myth that the white Christian was better than everyone else has made history what it is. This is why native Americans were put on reservataions and blacks were made slaves.

There was some facts that all physicists knew until Albert Einstein came along and proved that they were myths. Note his theory of relativity was tested a little later when there was an eclipse and it proved his theory to be a fact or law of nature. He became a celebrity over night when his theory was proved with very precise mathematics.

Before that a newspaper reporter told him that 100 top physicists said that his theory of relativity was nonsense. He showed that the idea that time always moved at the same rate and lengths or distances are always the same were myths. Time slows down and distances shorten or contract as you move faster. Things also get heavier as they move faster. This amount is negligible unless you move at speeds near 180,000 miles per second (the speed of light).

So foods that have mostly simple carbs are called simple carbs or sugars. Foods that are mostly complex carbs are called complex carbs or starches. Actually when someone even mentions that a carb (carbohydrate) is simple or complex when talking about a healthy diet shows that they are confused. So here is how simple it is to know what is healthy. Dr Oz says to eat foods that do not have an ingredient list. Others says to eat foods created or grown by nature and not foods made by man. Some say to eat foods that have a high water content. They are also called back to nature foods.

When it comes to foods that are called simple carbs like apples and oranges, because they have a lot of simple carbs in them, people take them out of the package or wash them and then eat them. But when it comes to complex carbs or starches that are foods that are high in complex carbs, people do not wash them and eat them. Complex carbs are foods like potatoes, yucca roots, rice and other grains. You can sprout a grain but then it is no longer a grain or complex carb since you changed it.

The unripe banana is a complex carb and that is why you do not eat it. Complex carbs are harder and do not taste good. They are even harder to digest. Then the banana ripens and becomes a simple carb. That is why it gets sweeter the more it ripens. My grandfaher owned a wholesale fruit and produce business. He would say that when a banana was brown, it was as sweet as sugar and a baby can eat it. Now if you do not want to wait for the banana to ripen, you can change it into a simple carb by cooking it and then eating it.

So how long do you cook a complex carb like rice or potatoes? For as long as it takes for most of the complex carbs to change into simple carbs. Then not only is it softer, but it is better and sweeter tasting after you cooked it. It is also easier to digest. The raw (uncooked) yucca root is so hard that you can beat a guy to death with it. It would probably break your teeth if you tried to eat it raw. So that Buddhist monk in Japan on that video that I saw, was eating raw, uncooked hard rice that no one eats. So he was eating complex carbs. Vegetables are a mix of simple and complex carbs and it is more optional if they are cooked or not.

Then some people get really confused by mixing up simple and complex carbs, whole and refined grains and single and double sugars (mono and disaccharides). Then they say simple sugar instead of single sugar Just do an internet search for “simple sugar.” They talk about simple grains, whole carbohydrates and other things that do not exist. If someone says that eating complex carbs is healthier than eating simple carbs then they are saying that it is healthier to eat a raw unripe banana than a ripe banana.

Here is a video I recorded of an excellent spiritual practice I use to receive clarity and inspiration, and to increase my confidence and love for myself….

Now you definitely don’t have to keep as many different journals as I do. One main journal works really well for most people. I have been keeping a journal since I was a teenager. Well, even longer if you count the childhood journals I threw away:( This practice is a beautiful way for me to connect with my core, learn from my past, and track my daily progress. If you are wondering what you can write in your journal, I have made a list of what I believe are the most important aspects of your life to record….

1. Your Goals. Anthony Robbins, in his book Unlimited Power, records: “A study of the 1953 graduates of Yale University clearly demonstrates the power of goals. The graduates interviewed were asked if they had a clear, specific set of goals written down with a plan for achieving those goals. Only 3 percent had such written goals. Twenty years later, in 1973, the researchers went back and interviewed the surviving members of the 1953 graduating class. They discovered that the 3 percent with written specific goals were worth more in financial terms than the entire other 97 percent put together… The interviewers also discovered the less measurable or more subjective measures, such as level of happiness and joy that the graduates felt, also seemed to be superior in the 3 percent with written goals.” This clearly demonstrates the power of writing down your goals!!

2. Your Feelings. When you share your feelings with others, you paint a picture of who you are to them. Your essence is then filtered through their individual judgements and opinions which can color your own clarity. When you choose instead to write your feelings down, “good” or “bad”, you always have an unbiased listener and may feel truly “heard” for the first time in your life. In my opinion, this is one of the best therapies available.

3. Your Memories. Record all the good in your life… your travels, your brags, and the most precious moments you experience. This will turn out to be invaluable to you as the years pass.

4. Your Favorite Quotes and Inspirations. As I pointed out in my video, you retain 75-90% more when you write something down. By recording your insights and what you learn, you will create an amazing source of knowledge at your fingertips. I love to re-read my journals on my Birthday and get re-inspired by all the gems contained inside.

5. Your Gratitudes. Gratitude is a high vibrational state to be in. Recording what you are grateful for on a daily basis will keep you focused on how amazing your life is!!

6. Your Questions. How do you receive what you desire? Ask! Richard Bach wrote in Illusions, “Isn’t it strange how much we know if only we ask ourselves instead of somebody else?” By writing down your deep questions you are in effect asking your superconscious mind for the answer, and trust me, you will receive the answer. Be prepared!
