20 LOVING AND NOURISHING YOURSELF TO GREAT HEALTH

by Louise Hay

At 88 years of age, I can say that health and happiness are the most important tenets of my life. Many of you who have read my books know that I didn’t have an easy childhood, nor any of the advantages of money or education for much of my life. Then I discovered the one thing that changed the course of my health and my life: the belief that every thought we think is creating our future. This one little idea shifted the direction of my life. I found that if I could create peace, health, and harmony in my mind, I could create the same in my body and in my life.

24 LIVE ON PURPOSE: ARE YOU LIVING ON PURPOSE OR HIDING IN FEAR?

by Stacey Curnow

You know you don’t belong in your job any longer. Sure, it puts food on the table and keeps a roof over your head, and with the economy the way it is, you should probably feel grateful for having a job at all, but you wonder…

Could you make it on your own? Could you take the leap and be your own boss? Believe in yourself, because regardless of what anyone says, you can create and live the life of your dreams.

CONTENTS 28 LIVING THE GODDESS LIFESTYLE: THE GIFT OF FEAR – A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON THAT B*TCH NAMED FEAR!

by Lisa Marie Rosati

One of the most empowering choices you can make is to stop living in a state of fear.

Fear robs you of the present moment, which is all you really have anyway. There are so many ways that fear rears its ugly head in our lives. There’s the fear of failure, the fear of not being enough, the fear of being judged, and so on. If allowed to run amuck, fear will paralyze you and your ability to live full out.

Fear originates with your thoughts. Buying into the thought and allowing it to stop you, is up to you… it’s your choice.

YOU get to choose!

“Do you think courage means being fearless? Or daring? Courage, real courage, is taking three steps when it terrifies you.”

CATHERINE ANDERSON

31 THE ONLY MAP YOU’LL EVER NEED (FOR EVERY DREAM YOU HAVE…)

by Boni Lonnsburry What if I told you I had a map that would turn thoughts into gold, sadness into joy, failure into success and loneliness into love?

Would you follow it? Of course you would! Who wouldn’t? Manifesting reality is a result of what you think and feel. How important is it that you reach your dreams? If not so important, stay where you are, but don’t be surprised if you don’t get anywhere. However, if you are serious about creating your dreams, the map to a delicious life can get you there.

One step at a time.

35 THE UNIVERSE IS CALLING YOU… ARE YOU LISTENING?

by Sara Wiseman All day long, in every single moment, the Universe is communicating with us. When we’re busy, not paying attention or caught up in the various dramas of human life, we don’t always hear this quiet whisper. That’s because the Universe doesn’t speak to us in the language of the world.

Instead, it communicates in the language of the soul. When we allow the Universe to lead us in this way we can receive the message clearly.

20 ARE YOU LISTENING TO YOUR DIVINE GUIDANCE SYSTEM?

by Mal Duane

How many times have you gotten a “funny” feeling that something wasn’t right? You can’t put your finger on it, but there is this gnawing sensation that keeps distracting you.

You dismiss it at first but it keeps coming back. Say hello to your intuition. Many of us don’t understand the power of our intuition.

Intuition is like our own built-in radar system, an innate sense of knowing without any reasonable explanation that something doesn’t feel right. Open your connection to your divine intuition and receive the messages you really need to know.

20 BECOMING FEARLESS: LEARN HOW TO WALK IN YOUR POWER

by Mary E. Pritchard, Ph.D.

2013 was the year of being hit across the forehead with a Cosmic 2x4. The hits kept coming so fast and furiously, that I finally told the Universe, “Bring it on!” And, of course, it did. Be careful what you wish for…The real revelation came when a woman I had only met once Facebook messaged me out of the blue. Her message was simple and to the point: “Why aren’t you walking in your power?” I invite you to walk in your power and offer several tips and journaling prompts to help you begin your journey to empowerment.

24 CIRCLE UP: WHEN WOMEN COME TOGETHER WE CAN CHANGE THE WORLD

by Shann Vander Leek

Women have been coming together in community for centuries. While the origins of women’s circles are ancient, their lessons are as modern as the women who participate in them today. Saying yes to a transformational woman’s circle rocked my world and positively impacted me and my family on many levels. Learn what you can expect when you say yes to circling. up

CONTENTS 28 YOUR SOMEDAY OVER THE RAINBOW IS NOW

by Laura P. Clark

This magical life is not somewhere over the rainbow. It’s right in front of you. Rainbows can teach us so very much. Their colors, their shapes and their symbolism hold vast wisdom and messages for all of us. We only have to be curious and take the time to hear these messages, understand them and have the courage to act upon them.

Dorothy finally understood this and then she took bold action ~ she clicked her heels together not knowing what was to come but knowing she had to take this fearless action to get back home.

“Do you think courage means being fearless? Or daring? Courage, real courage, is taking three steps when it terrifies you.”

CATHERINE ANDERSON

31 LISTENING TO THE GUIDANCE OF OUR HEARTS

by Debra Reble, Ph.D. Groundbreaking research shows that our hearts have their own unique intelligence that reflects our true essence or higher self.

Mystics, great leaders, and healers have long known that the heart center is the gateway to wisdom and wellbeing. When we listen to our heart, we live with passion and purpose.

We feel a sense of alignment with our higher selves. We begin to realize that full selfexpression is not equivalent to the job we do, the roles we play, or how successful we are in the world…It’s so much more.

35 HOW TO MAKE FEAR YOUR ALLY

by Lynn Robinson

Fear is a constant companion when we’re going through challenging times. It can seem virtually impossible to stop the “what ifs” in our head once they begin to terrorize us.

While it’s normal to be afraid on occasion, taken to an extreme, fear will leave you paralyzed and unable to change your situation. I invite you to learn how to embrace your fear and change your life.

20 THE FOUR LEVELS OF INTUITION

by Simone Wright

Learning to develop and trust our intuitive intelligence is more important now than ever before. The only guidance system we need to assist us in living our best life is the wisdom held within our natural intuitive intelligence. As you become familiar with The Four Levels of Intuition, your rapport with this natural form of intelligence will grow, evolve and expand no matter what the rest of the world is telling you to do. With the direct guidance of your own wisdom you can navigate any situation with a sense of joy, ease and great satisfaction.

40 THE BODY-MIND CONNECTION: DIGESTIVE HEALTH AND YOUR BRAIN

by Heather Dane

Have you ever had a gut feeling? Or felt butterflies in your stomach? If so, then you have experienced the gut-brain connection.

Research is showing that if you want to improve your moods, memory, and brain function, look to the health of your gut.

In other words, what you eat matters. Your gut is responsible for how you feel, how you act, what you focus on, whether you sleep or not, your overall health, and your overall enjoyment of life.

When you take care of your gut, you take care of your body, mind and spirit.

44 THE WISE WOMAN WAY: FEARLESS LIVING

by Susun Weed

Is it possible to live fearlessly? My mentor Elisabeth KublerRoss was very fierce with her when it came to feelings. In fact, she only allowed for five: love, joy, grief, anger, and fear. But only fear of heights, fast motions, and loud noises.

She taught me that our true selves are fearless, bold and passionate.

Come with me to explore several ways you can begin to live fearlessly.

48 TRANSFORMING YOUR RELATIONSHIP:

FEARLESSNESS: THE IRONIC KEY TO HAPPINESS!

by Stacey Martino If you are not currently happy with any area of your life it’s because you are NOT living fearlessly in that area of your life.

Pain is just the universe telling you that you need to GROW here. Personal growth and a magnificent life REQUIRES you to live fearlessly. You need to continually break through your current comfort zone into your next one to experience true happiness. Practice being fearless. You’ve got this!

“Think about what made you happy as a child and rediscover it. It’s who you were meant t0 be.”

51 THE FIVE BEST GIFTS TO GIVE YOUR FAMILY

by Margaret Paul, Ph.D.

When we think of giving gifts, we usually think of things to buy for people.

Yet, if you think back on gifts you’ve been given, it might not be the material gifts you received that are foremost in your mind – it might be the kind of gifts that deeply touched your heart and soul. It might be various ways people expressed their love to you. Learn about the five gifts of love we can give to our families that can make a huge difference in their lives.

Career | Business 56 THE ENERGY OF HAPPINESS

by Christy Whitman

Throughout our entire lives we all construct notions of what happiness means to us, refined through shared experiences with lovers, children and friends. Meanwhile, at the same time we are forming our own ideas often influenced by ready-made definitions of happiness that we receive from the media and popular culture which at some level we feel compelled to accept.

With so many conflicting viewpoints about what happiness is, is it any wonder that so many find it difficult to attain? So, is it possible to “choose” happiness? You bet.

CONTENTS 61 FEARLESS WRITING: WHAT I LEARNED FROM MY 5 YEAR OLD SON

by Lisa Tener Fearlessness: Boldness,

Courage, Pluck. We often mean these words when we talk about fearlessness.

We don’t necessarily mean “without fear” but more something like, “Feel the fear and do it anyway.” We may know that acting boldly has its rewards, but so much of the time, we choose to live in the safe zone, don’t we? And this can be true of our writing, or any creative aspects of our lives, as well. My young son helped me realize the importance of wandering into uncharted territory with my writing. Thanks to his creative expression, I’ve come to understand that fearless writing is the only way to write.

“Find a bit of fun and laughter in every situation. it inspires the best in each of us.”

Embracing Transitions as

ation m r o f s n a r T f o s d Perio

BY DEBRA REBLE, PH.D.

Transitions—intense periods of discovery, selfhealing, and personal transformation—can catalyze the release of patterns, the resolution of grievances, and open space for new possibilities and spiritual growth. From a spiritual point of view, a person’s life is a constant series of transitions: changing jobs or careers, suffering from and healing an illness, beginning or ending relationships, having a baby or facing a death in the family, and initiating or completing creative projects. Moving through life from one transition to another without resistance, avoidance, or energy blocks allows us to open to these new possibilities and develop spiritually.

Loving and Nourishing Yourself to

Great Health A

BY LOUISE HAY

t 88 years of age, I can say that health and happiness are the most important tenets of my life. Many of you who have read my books know that I didn’t have an easy childhood, nor any of the advantages of money or education for much of my life.

Then I discovered the one thing that changed the course of my health and my life: the belief that every thought we think is creating our future. This one little idea shifted the direction of my life. I found that if I could create peace, health, and harmony in my mind, I could create the same in my body and in my life.

My recently released book, Loving Yourself to Great Health: Thoughts & Food—the Ultimate Diet, co-authored with Heather Dane and Ahlea Khadro is not about the latest trend or fad. It’s about how to craft a life that will nourish and support you. It’s about all the ways you can love yourself more. It’s about ancient healing wisdom that will work for your busy life. And it’s about learning that you matter. Somewhere in all the stress, noise, and to-do lists, there is still space for you. You’ll learn how to find that

There are moments in your life when one decision forever changes the trajectory of your future. My pivotal moment is an Autumn day about twenty-four years ago, when as a single welfare mom, I picked up a copy of Louise’s “You Can Heal Your Life”.

Little did I know that Louise’s words, wisdom and powerful sharing would serve as the catalyst that would set me on a path of healing and selfdiscovery—a path that continues to this day.

Since then, I’ve read every one of Louise’s books along with over four hundred more personal and spiritual development and success books.

As my healing journey continued to unfold, I was divinely led to birth Aspire Magazine in the winter of 2005. My soul inspired intention was to create a publication and publishing company dedicated to providing content that would inspire women to live deeper, more authentic and inspired lives.

Today, Aspire and her sister brands serve over 42,000 women plus 16,000 social media fans...

All because of Louise’s empowering book. Louise first graced the cover of Aspire in August of 2011 and it’s an honor to once again share her inspirational message.

My life came full circle in 2011 when I was invited to attend a private, intimate book signing in New York City for one of Louise’s new books.

During our time together, I was blessed to thank my mentor for the impact she, and her extraordinary body of work, has made on my life. As our conversation came to a close, she embraced me and whispered... “Now take what you’ve learned and do the same for others.”

And so I do!

WISDOM & SELF-GROWTH

Over the years, there have been some key points to my philosophy on life, happiness, and health that have remained timeless. I am going to share them with you right now because they will help set the stage for this book you’re about to read.

Life Comes Full Circle

I have always loved learning new things, and I believe that every hand that touches me is a healing hand. In this way, I have found many wonderful people doing extremely good work, and I often like to share what I’ve learned from them with the rest of the world.

As I look back and think about why I feel so good at age 88, I truly believe it’s because of the way I live my life. My thoughts from morning until I go to sleep at night are mostly a stream of positive affirmations.

I firmly believe that Life loves me and everything I need comes to me at the right time. I also believe that I am a big, strong, healthy girl! Then I leave it to Life to bring my thoughts into manifestation so that this comes true for me. opened to new ways to love and support yourself on this incredible journey.

Over the years, I have taught ways to eliminate the negative thoughts in your mind and to replace them with positive affirmations. To practice forgiveness and to dissolve resentment. To learn to really love who you are. To do mirror work. Those of you who have followed these lessons have seen your lives turn around for the better.

Now it is time for the next step.

I have had so many of you say to me, “You look so young and vibrant.” Or, “I want to be healthy like you when I get older.” In this book, I will be sharing exactly what I do. For me, this is the next step in changing your thoughts. It’s changing your way of life to one that focuses on nourishing and treating your body with love.

26

When you expand your thinking and beliefs, your love flows freely. When you contract, you shut yourself off. Can you remember the last time when you were in love? Your heart went ahh! It was such a wonderful feeling.

It is the same with loving yourself, except that you will never leave once you have that love. It’s with you for the rest of your life, so you want to make it the best relationship that you can have.
