Our Founding Vision…

“I was standing on the highest mountain of them all, and round about beneath me was the whole hoop of the world. And while I stood there I saw more than I can tell and I understood more than I saw; for I was seeing in a sacred manner the shapes of all things in the spirit, and the shape of all shapes as they must live together like one being. And I saw that the sacred hoop of my people was one of many hoops that made one circle, wide as daylight and as starlight, and in the center grew one mighty flowering tree to shelter all children of one mother and one father. And I saw that it was holy.” Black Elk’s Vision (1862 - 1950)

Our Beliefs...

We believe all people are One! And that this great truth lies deep within each person’s heart! We dedicate the Body Mind Spirit Guide to the One Mother, the One Father and their children (you & I)! Though we speak many languages from differing nations, professions, religions, and realms, as we start to sing the language of LOVE we begin to become aware that we are all singing the same song! This publication seeks to create Harmony to that One Song, the BEAUTIFUL Song of life! ~Howard & Penny Golden

Unconditional Love

By Wendy Powers Nugent Even if you do not have a furry little one in your home, you may at times run into one of these amazing souls. They are so full of love and possess a uniqueness to their personalities, just as little children do. In fact, many of my clients have opted to have furry children instead of human babies. This phoneme has now changed how we look at pets and even the way we identify their place in our lives. We now adopt them into our home, and they become a family member as we become mom and dad to them, instead of an owner identity. Many of my friends and clients send me pictures of their furry family member dressed in various holidays outfits and even give them birthday parties! Their companionship is without question important to our mental well-being, thus the term, therapy pet. Now, when I go to the hospital to visit someone, I see the hospital therapy dog going room to room cheering-up patients. A few years ago, my niece needed surgery; she was only five-years-old at the time. The surgery went well, however, she did not fully waken! We, of course, were terrified that she was going to be in a coma for an unknown time! It was on day three of being in a light coma state when the hospital therapy dog was brought into the pediatric critical care unit. The dog was a little poodle. Once she was put on the bed and licked my niece and snuggled near her, my niece suddenly woke up. Her first words were, “Hi doggie!” Some of you may wonder why I am writing about our precious little friends; how can this be a spiritual subject? From my experience doing readings for over 35 years, I can tell you that your pet has a soul. It is amazing when a pet who has passed comes through to send some love to their human parent, one more time. When our precious little Shish Tzu passed on, we felt her in the house for quite some time. In fact, we could hear her calling out to us through a bit of a whine that she made toward the last days of her life. The interesting part of this sharing is that I had some people at my home for a get-together three years after her passing. None of them knew I once had a pet, let alone that she had passed. One of my friends asked, do you have a little dog? I feel it moving around my feet and I hear it whining. Well, this was true confirmation that our little girl was still in the house and it was not just our imagination.

furry children’s life.

I am sure you have heard about animal whisperers. Psychics like myself can also tune into your pet’s thoughts and energy. There have been times when I see pets suffering from an illness, disease or even psychological distress. I can then share with their human family this information which is invaluable and may save their

You also have a telepathic connection to pets of any type; even fish, if you are sending thoughts to them. It is much like when you are talking to plants -- they can respond to your thoughts and the energy sent to them. However, our more complex warm-blooded pets will give an immediate loving response. In turn, if you have an angry household filled with negative energy, they can most certainly sense it. In fact, they can react to this environment by becoming sick or trying to run away, even if you do not direct this anger or negative energy toward them. Interestingly, they react much differently when you are sick or depressed. Your furry family member will snuggle up to you, sharing love and healing energy, truly a positive impact for the ill and the depressed. If you do not own a pet, maybe you could have someone bring a furry friend by to cheer you up. At times, when things are getting a bit overwhelming for me and even meditation is not helping, I will go to a pet store or an animal shelter and hold a little one for a bit, renewing my energy! Happy Valentine’s Day, wishing you unconditional love. Wendy Powers

One of my clients told me how he was alarmed by what he saw happening to his uncle, who is 86 years old. About 1½ years ago, his uncle fell down and sustained an injury. His doctor prescribed that as part of his rehabilitation, he use a walker. A walker is a device that is often used by those who are recuperating from the leg, hip or back injuries or those who are having problems with walking or mild balance problems. Unfortunately, over the next several months, my client’s uncle became more and more dependent on the walker. Instead of providing some needed help and support until he had healed from the injury and regained his “normal” posture and mobility, quite the opposite happened. My client told me that he saw his uncle at a family gathering, and was shocked at how his uncle looked another ten years older from how he’d remembered him before his fall. He learned, from the conversation he had with his uncle, that he couldn’t go anywhere without his walker and had become totally dependent upon it. Let’s take a closer look at what occurred. A walker in itself is an excellent temporary aide until a person regains their normal walking pattern. However, what happens too often is an older person will become dependent upon it. This dependency creates just the opposite result of what is hoped for. It will not allow a person to bring their structure and posture back to its optimum level. In some cases, as they walk, it can take them out of their vertically upright relationship to the ground, and their walker can actually pattern the person into being even more hunched over. This case of my client’s uncle is not unusual. Many times, my clients tell me about people they know who seem to be losing their war with gravity.

A recent study that appeared in the online, Journal of Geriatric Physical Therapy, suggests that the devices themselves may actually cause people to fall in certain

w w w. B o d y M i n d S p i r i t G u i d e . c o m

February 2019

situations. “Sometimes, the walkers’ design itself causes them to lose balance, while other times, they are having balance problems because of a gait issue that has developed over the years which was never addressed properly with therapy or chiropractic methods. Gait problems develop over time, usually due to problems in the core (mid-section of the body not working properly), which result in a shorter gait, overall stiffness and a loss of balance.” As a person becomes more and more hunched over, it brings them closer to the ground. The longer the person is dependent on the walker, the more their body will conform their posture to the use of the device. Physically, what starts to happen is that the core of the body starts to shorten, with their Psoas muscles, in particular, not standing a chance to participate in their walking. Their head becomes more pulled forward and down. When there is a shortening of the myofascial components in the front of the torso, called a clavi-pectoral fascia, and in the attachments of the diaphragm under the rib cage, it can result in a rounded, more shortened, and curved posture with the muscles on both sides of the spine becoming a bodyworker’s nightmare. Much like an old abandoned house, eventually, the gravitational pull of the earth will cause the structure to begin to lean and eventually fall to the earth. What can be done to treat this condition? What can a person do to avoid the misfortune of experiencing what my client’s uncle had to endure? There are a number of approaches that can help. Some healing approaches can include the practice of yoga. This in and of itself can have a powerful transformative effect on a person’s condition. It can do much to correct the individual’s posture.

* Shoulders rounded and tense? * Are you less flexible than you use to be? * Chronic hip, neck or lower back pain? * Does your body feel beaten down & compressed? Structural Integration (Rolfing") can:

* Improve your posture dramatically * Assist in breathing easier and deeper * Improve your game (yoga, golf, etc.) * Make being in your body joyous and uplifting

Chiropractic treatments over time are another very effective way of treating this condition. Physical Therapy that combines skillful hands-on work with a prescribed at-home exercise regimen, can help. Rolfing is dedicated to correcting this type of affliction. It does this by bringing the body back from destructive patterns that are formed by a compromised posture. It gives the body the internal support it needs by lengthening and “fluffing” up the sheets of body’s facia (connective tissue) and bringing the Psoas muscles back online and allowing the person to be upright again with less pain. Best of all the results are designed to be long-lasting. Of course, one of the best forms of treatment is prevention. If you are not doing so already, why not begin a stretching and balance program that allows you to develop your muscle tone, coordination, and strength. A combination of yoga and Pilates can also be very useful. Also, a Rolfer could suggest which exercises from Rolfing Movement Integration work would be most useful. This approach can be one of the best investments of your time and energy, as you go for the goals of optimal health and structural well-being.

Having an Open Heart

AVAILABLE NOW

By Eve Wilson

The big red heart of Valentine’s Day speaks volumes about love, both human and spiritual. Romantic, passionate love opens our hearts naturally and makes us so happy! But an open heart is essential in so many ways for thriving in life, though sometimes having an open heart can be a challenge. Let’s explore why it is so important and how we can maintain it.

When we talk about an open heart, we are actually referring to a spiritual organ called the heart chakra. I love that even cultures who know nothing about chakras, know that love is a heart thing. The heart chakra is an almost magical organ which reaches beyond the individual ego life and connects us with what is beyond…other people, life forms and even God (by whatever name you call that One). It is through an open heart chakra that we receive love, give love, communicate

telepathically, release pain and suffering, receive healing, grow spiritually, allow our Higher Self and Higher Intelligence to express through us and so much more.

the pain and suffering have done their job so you can move on from that painful experience and begin the greater adventures ahead of you.

But whenever we experience negativity or suffering, our heart is inclined to close. It withdraws from our unity with Higher Intelligence and love; it shuts the door on the release of suffering and we find ourselves in a state of limitation and misery. This is the root of anger and depression, it is an expression of fear and it is not a place we want to live. Opening the heart chakra in these situations is an act of willful choice. It is a choice to love and to trust in the greater good. It is a willingness to accept what is and believe in something better. And when we open our heart, the unconditional love of the One begins to transform our situations. The heart chakra is the transformer, and when it is open to the One miracles happen, God can act in the world. This is the magic we hold in our hearts!

When your heart is open, all things can go more smoothly. I am not talking about being naively open or making yourself unnecessarily vulnerable. I am talking about having your heart open to your Higher Self and the One and allowing their love to move through your life, making sense and beauty out of all your opportunities. This will help you succeed, thrive and enjoy the love that is innate within you. Living this way is what I call HOME, and it is right within you when your heart is open. An open heart relaxes your mind, releases tension and stops the circular thinking that we can get stuck within. It attracts good opportunities and inspires kindness from others while it makes you feel satisfied and whole. Eve Wilson – Learn more about ascension and healing at www.spiritualhealers.com.

I have watched this magic happen thousands of times during my work as a healer and teacher. Helping people choose to break down the walls that separate them from unity and love is the nature of my work, and I love it. People begin building walls from the first time they are hurt emotionally, mentally or physically, and so throughout our lives, these walls may grow unless we open our heart and allow them to dissolve. An open heart is an act of forgiveness, and I always believe that forgiveness is the height of enlightened selfinterest! It sets us free and allows us to thrive. It doesn’t matter whether or not something deserves forgiveness; forgiveness is like oxygen, you can’t really live without it. Not forgiving is like holding your breath and slowly suffocating! Every hurt requires forgiveness because otherwise we can hold onto the pain and it can be a brick in the wall that restricts our hearts. Pain is an attention-getter! So whenever you experience it, try loving the hurt part, and then meditating on what you can learn from the experience. What is your unconscious or higher consciousness trying to get through your head? Open your heart, embrace the pain, love yourself and discover the gift that pain is bringing you. I am reminded of when my very young daughter walked into the dining room table. Crying she complained, “Mommy, the table hit me!” I tried to explain that she hit the table, but she wasn’t having it. Our unconscious self’s first response to pain is to blame someone! But try giving thanks and seeking the gift within it. Your own Higher Self has a gift hidden within every experience of your life. You on a higher level propelled your human self into that “table” for a very good reason! Discover what it is by comforting yourself and opening your heart. Then

Developing Meaningful Communication with Our Pets By Diana Wanamaker

Picture yourself at a social gathering. Conversation fills the room. You’re standing amongst a small circle of friends, talking and enjoying the evening. You turn your head slightly and there in the corner of your eye you see him. You glance over at him, and he sees you. Your eyes meet; there’s an unspoken spark. You both find a way to come across the room to meet one another. Your heart flutters, your brow begins to sweat, and light-hearted conversation is exchanged. Time passes and you continue to see one another. Eventually comes the time when you each share your stories. Then comes that one story that defines who you are and who you have become. That is the story that makes that heart-to-heart connection, a bond that is sealed for life. No matter what our future holds, it is in those moments when our story is shared with another that powerfully connects us. Communication is likely the single most important aspect of any given relationship. In business and personal relationships, it is the key to success. It offers stability, understanding, and balance while maintaining and building relationships. It is the life force of a flourishing relationship. Communicating effectively requires information. Information from our pets is limited to body language, their behaviors, and their species-specific vocabulary. In actuality, there is a limited exchange of communication between us. Despite this limited dialogue we have between one another, it is clear that we share an unspoken love. Our pets are telepathic communicators amongst each other. They learn our language to become a part of our lives. 12

Beyond this blissful relationship, life can offer challenges with our pets. Illness, unexplained behaviors, transitions, new family members, moving, death, and a long list of unexpected events and questions occur. Improving communication between those we love, only deepens our understanding of each other. There is an entirely new realm of insight beyond our typical relationship with our pets. It is through a deeper connection that we become transformed. This is achieved by expanding our communication with one another. Animals are not only here to be by our side, but they are also here for us to hear their stories. Animals can come to us in the most unusual and unexpected ways. At times it is clear that they have chosen us, instead of us choosing them. They are healers, teachers, and companions. They are here to comfort us in many ways. With an expanded communication, it can offer insight and direction to their lives and our relationship with them, beyond what we know. In animal communication, we gain not only a better understanding of animals but also a better understanding of ourselves and the world. Broadening the depth of connection with a heart-to-heart conversation could very well amplify the world we share with them. Where lack of words sometimes fails us, an exchange of thoughts may not.

Windows of Love By Pauline Dettloff

This is February and it’s all about Love! My heart swells-up sometimes thinking about this. I am a romantic at heart and it makes me happy when I think of the word love, and there are so many kinds of love out there. It’s a beautiful noun, but it is so many different things to different people, in different places in different countries, and with different meanings. As I look at all of this, and with all the readings that I have done in the past, so many of us start out in love and we end up so lonely, ...what happened! Where did it go, where did he go, she go? As I look at it, it goes along with our animals too, because our animals mean so much to us and we love them so much. There’s always that one special one that we can’t stop loving and they leave us so early, and they were the love of our lives. What happened? I call it “windows”. We have an opportunity to bring someone into our lives for a moment in time that we can honestly love and adore and have deep feelings and affection for, and sometimes we never get to love them the way we want. Someone once told me that everyone gets five chances in life to meet a special someone to love, marry, and/or have a relationship with and there are windows of time in all of them. How many of us meet that special someone and he or she comes into your life? Then -- oops -- the drama comes. Can it be fixed? Can it work? Here comes this window of love. I believe it is time-stamped because we never know how long this beautiful moment will last; it could be for a day, weeks, months, years... but then it ends. Something went wrong and there you are still in love; the other person moves on and it is not always a break-up! There are many reasons it ends and

February 2019

guess what -- now what do you do -- with being still in love and nowhere you can go to fix it? Your brain is stuck. It’s in love; how do you change your thinking because it does not stop, and it drives you crazy. You need someone to talk to, however, our friends are not always the best people to talk to because they may not understand how much you were in love.

Cupid’s Quandary By Dr. William H. Karl, D.C.

February is an especially busy month for Cupid. With Valentine’s Day coming up on the 14th, Cupid doesn’t have much time for matchmaking. Then, after the matches are made, it will be approximately six months to a year-and-a-half before the other saints and the big guy himself are asked to step in and help these couples figure out the real “howto” of lifelong bliss. I’m not being pessimistic but rather the herald of great news. When a relationship reaches this point, it isn’t over, it’s just the real deal starting. Read on to learn how you can make your relationships flourish. Human relationships are complex. Other relationships in the plant/animal kingdom don’t appear to be as complex; but who knows, we are here and they are there. Observing their interactions makes me think they are one up on us in these areas. If you’re not in a relationship but would like to be and don’t know where to start, use the universal magic formula to create what you want. Take a blank 8 ½ by 11-inch sheet of paper and write down in detail what you want and what you’re looking for, along with every intimate detail. When you’re done with words, draw pictures. The more detail, the faster you will find your mate. If you change your mind about some part, no worries, just scratch it out and fill in what you want. We live in a matter/energy universe, so go ahead and transform your energy into matter -or actually into your love interest! This exercise is what will help you to recognize him or her. Now let’s look at two relationship phases and guidelines to help relationships last: Phase one confuses many people because it’s SO good! In this part of the world, we’re allowed to choose our mate. Our choices are based on what’s important

to us and/or whatever attracts us to them. This part of attraction is interesting because whatever we believe our attraction to be, and what it actually is, often varies. This is because the attraction we feel comes from a very primitive part of our brain. This first phase is usually magical. It’s the phase in which we’re sure we’ve found our soulmate. Our love interest often likes everything we like, including food, entertainment, and thoughts of future family. It feels literally painful when we aren’t with them. It is a great experience so hang onto its essence as it will be the model for building the relationship we want. Do you remember one of the first robotic toys called a Furby? A relationship that doesn’t get fed is like a hungry Furby. Even the best relationships must be properly fed to continue being wonderful and successful. In the same way that the magical beginnings of relationships are nature’s way of ensuring the continuation of the human species, properly nourishing a relationship is essential for its growth and survival. When we have both a partner and a group, history shows that the odds of survival improve -- that we tend to live longer and healthier lives. Good relationships are good investments! In the second phase of relationships, the rose-colored glasses come off and reality sets in. You may find you do not like all the same movies or the same food, and he or she can’t keep skipping days off work to go to the beach with you. But hang in there as there’s still a ton of good things that will make life for the two of you exciting and worthwhile. Most relationship experts say that when things start getting rocky we should go back and look at what attracted us to each other in the first place. This makes sense even if the couple started hanging out together because it was better than being alone. And even this may have merit for some people. Consider the success rate of arranged marriages where people started with nothing more than the good intentions of their parents to create good families. This second phase is where you take all the things you now know and love about your significant other and begin to appreciate them with a deeper understanding of how you can create a life together. This phase is the big work with the big payoffs as you gain a lifelong friend and partner in the adventures of life and family. One of the things I learned to do as a Certified Wellness Doctor is called, Couples Integration. Sometimes I think it would be more appropriately called, Couples Re-integration. When I watch two people that have been together (happily) for a long time start to make remarks of an unkind nature to each other or about each other to others, I can test them as a couple. Often I find they’ve become allergic to each other. In the Integration process, we clear the allergic response between

them on a biophysical level. Either the romance returns or they look at each other and realize they should not be together as a couple and part as friends rather than hateful enemies. In closing, I want to cover another aspect of relationships which deals with beginning a new relationship after having had a good, successful relationship prior in one’s life. It also applies to people that almost had what they wanted. The main premise is to understand that all relationships have their own new set of rules which are often vastly different than those from previous relationships. Relationships are akin to playing with tinker toys or blocks; the components are the same but can go together in many different ways. You may not want to disassemble your last toy because you liked it but you need to do it anyway so you can build something new and different. Your last toy (relationship) may have been great but the new one won’t be unless you’re willing to build it fresh from the start. Happy Valentine’s Day! Dr. William H.

A Valentine’s Day Twist

By Nancy Lynn

When Valentine’s Day comes to mind, what do you picture? If I could guess, I would probably bet that images of romantic candlelit dinners, roses, and chocolates dance throughout your mind. Even if these particular things don’t come to mind, we have all become subject to the commercialized and traditional idea of how one would spend a Valentine’s Day. It is a time when we show our love and affection towards another. We expect to dote on someone or shower those close to us with small gifts that remind them of how important and special they are to us. However, for this particular Valentine’s Day, I would like to pose a twist that would present a new perspective to this special celebration. We should move towards the concept of what love looks like. This crucial idea is that the notion of selflove should always come first. Not perhaps a foreign concept to us, but it is one that I believe is overlooked through all aspects of our life. What brings you a belief of love, peace, and self-appreciation? Let’s look over a few ideas about self-love. Gratitude. Remind yourself when you wake up how important you are and how glad you are that you have another day available on this planet. Be grateful for the people in your life and the journey that has brought you to this point. Remind yourself how many things you have accomplished and what you are excited about that will be in your future. Do something that brings you joy. I cannot emphasize how important it is to find something that you are passionate about. Maybe it’s time to write that book you’ve wanted to start, take up hiking, call a friend, read a book or anything that gets those creative vibes flowing. It is essential to create an environment in which one can feel comfortable with oneself. Special. Do something for yourself that you would do for someone else on this special day. Make a great dinner, buy yourself flowers, and get yourself a thoughtful card about how you feel about you. Celebrating yourself is a profound way of appreciating life through self-awareness of the gift of life you are experiencing. It keeps your body functioning, and your mind and your spirit alive. Quiet time. This is one of the most important aspects of

w w w. B o d y M i n d S p i r i t G u i d e . c o m

February 2019

developing a deeper connection to my own spiritual self. To have time alone means to quiet the chatter in my mind and open my spirit to my soul. We often struggle to find moments of peace in this hectic world that we are always trying to keep up with, yet these are moments of introspection that bring insights to my journey. To find clarity among the chaos, we must have the ability to check in with ourselves, take inventory of our needs, and work to find solutions to problems that may be occurring -- or just relax from the noise of life. Take a bath, a walk, or of course, meditate. Enjoy the beauty of who you are and why you came here.

Is Fear Holding You Back? By Phillip Rosenbaum

Do you ever feel that you are stuck in a rut? So often we have opportunities to try something new; however, instead of taking the risk, we stay where we are. Unfortunately, this often deprives us of new and enjoyable experiences. According to the late author and psychologist, Dr. Susan Jeffers, who wrote the book, Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway, “Everybody experiences fear when doing something totally new.” Many people are willing to face their fear, but many are not. You may wonder why this is. According to Dr. Jeffers, it is not the fear that is the problem. Rather, it is how one “holds” the fear that makes the difference. In other words, do we come at it from a position of power or do we approach it from the position of helplessness? The real problem is how we feel about ourselves. If we have high self-esteem and feel good about ourselves, we will often take the risk. However, if we feel we are not good enough or lack self-love, we will tend to avoid taking the risk. Thus, it is not the fear that holds us back, but rather how we feel about ourselves. One area where this holds true is with the problem of loneliness. There have recently been a number of articles about the problem of loneliness. In May of 2018, WebMD reported that despite social media, “Many Americans report feeling more lonely and isolated than ever before.” A study by Douglas Nemecek, MD, Cigna’s chief medical officer for behavioral health found that “The problem has reached ‘epidemic’ proportions, rivaling the risks posed by tobacco and the nation’s ever-expanding waistline.” He states that “Loneliness has the same impact on mortality as smoking 15 cigarettes a day, making it even more dangerous than obesity.” Arthur H. Brand, Ph.D., a licensed psychologist in Boca Raton, FL, believes that face-to-face connection with others is the best remedy. However, making connections with others often entails taking risks. And as previously mentioned, if individuals do not feel good about themselves, it is not very likely they will be willing to take the necessary risks.

"The greatest gift that you can give to others is the gift of unconditional love and acceptance." ~ Brian Tracy 18

It is apparent that raising one’s self-esteem and loving oneself is a necessary component in overcoming this problem, as well as other situations which entail risk-taking. So how does one go about doing this? As mentioned in previous articles, all of us have been programmed from our earliest days until about the age of seven. Unfortunately, much of this programming included negative and dysfunctional messages. These beliefs are now in our subconscious mind. We are probably not even aware of what they are. What is required is to become aware of these unhealthy beliefs, eliminate them and replace them with much more rational and healthy beliefs. This often requires outside help, such as hypnosis or counseling. One of the most powerful elements of hypnosis is that it deals with the subconscious mind and thus can quickly locate where these negative messages are coming from and reveal that they are not valid. They do not need to dominate our lives anymore. We can change these beliefs. By doing so, our self-esteem will improve and we will be much more willing to take the necessary risks to end the loneliness in our lives. If you are interested in making some important changes in your life, why not consider hypnosis or counseling? One other advantage of hypnosis is that it works quickly and does not require months or years of therapy. Thus, not only do you save time, but you also save money. One of the unfortunate truths about hypnosis is that people often come to see a hypnotherapist as a last resort. They have tried practically everything, but nothing has worked for them. Why not start with hypnosis? It may be the very thing you’ve been looking for. Phil Rosenbaum If you would like to find out more about hypnosis, please call Phil Rosenbaum at 248-688-6469. Changing your negative beliefs can transform your whole life, and you do deserve to feel good about yourself.

principles of an eco-psychology state that how we treat others, animals and the earth... is how we are subtly, or in big ways, treating ourselves.

Soft Kitten Heart Empowers the Strength in You

You can be a great leader, teacher, mother, father, provider and be scared, insecure, confused, or addicted at times. We are all sinners and saints. We are all human and divine. We are all perfectly imperfect.

By Barbra White

On a run, I saw a small, black pit bull with milk-filled drooping nipples being walked by an elderly woman. As I jogged up on them, I scared the mother pit bull and she cowered under the elderly woman’s legs. Looking at me with wide, shocked eyes, I saw the fatigue and many years of abuse in the little furry angel. I began to cry as I felt the pit bull’s desperate attempt to protect herself. I thought about all the times this little furry being was approached by others as a “big bad pit bull” instead of as the scared, vulnerable mother. I have owned many bully breeds and have seen people’s disgust and fear, not allowing my gentle, well-trained dog a chance. I would think, “Do they not know pit bull fighting is prevalent in this area? It is not the breed’s fault.” The animal’s environment has demanded it to obey the cruel demands of its owner. No animal or person is born bad. The whole breed is not bad from the acts of a few, and likewise, you are not bad as a whole from your mistakes, however many. IF given a chance... love, organic, whole food, and new skills can rehabilitate a person, or animal, back to their natural state. So why don’t we give ourselves or a pit bull a chance? It is common, and erroneous, to view a ‘strong person’ or leader and assume that they don’t need the same gentleness as everyone else. Many of us assume that the big, muscle-bound man doesn’t need gentleness with his emotions or vulnerabilities. Why do we wonder why men commit 95% of shootings, when current societal norms to “be a man” doesn’t allow space for them to be gentle, vulnerable AND strong, commanding? What if we are ALL strong and weak... tough and a tender kitten? Have you ever noticed its the “tough” woman that gets abused? Holding one’s heart with intentions of gentleness allows strength to manifest in the world, grounded in self-care. A tough heart keeps its owner’s hand “on a hot burner” painfully smiling and enduring the unhealthy situation. In fact, approaching your own heart with gentleness allows you to know what your needs are, and to have clear boundaries. A soft kitten heart empowers the toughness and strength in you to feel supported in life and make healthy choices. We don’t know how to hold both our strengths and our flaws. As a human, the pit bull is both strong and vulnerable. Our perspectives of animals reflect back our self-perspective. The

Opening space in your self-perception that includes your flaws and gifts dissolves that nagging feeling of not being quite good enough and aligns your vision with the already present goodness. What if your flaws are the very thing that helps you to serve others? This is applicable NOT after you figure it all out... but right now. Everyone, person or animal, has their flaws. Real selfconfidence comes from holding a bigger space for oneself which contains room for all of you. You are worthy, and you have a few weaknesses... but this does not change who you fundamentally are. A few brown leaves on the tree still make the tree... a tree. By embracing all parts of yourself, both dark and light, you remember your true beautiful divine self. An open heart is not weak. Acceptance and unconditional love gives one the power to choose higher and see bigger. Seeing “the best” in an animal or person without awareness of their pain/struggles is stupidity. Unconditional means to accept all parts... all conditions... this creates space for you to be aware of their issues, and to choose to live and move in a way that is healing and empowering for you both. Every person is a paradox of both light and dark, human and divine. Stop trying to cut away the dark, escape your humanity into the light, or burn away your perceived flaws. Embrace your dark, dank humanity and you will know a beauty beyond your current mental structures. Perfectionism and fear of failure cease to stagnate your life when you allow your perceived flaws to grow you into deeper self-awareness and compassion. Your vulnerable heart is the healing ointment your friends, family, and community needs. As you stand with an open heart, you allow life, love, and beauty to flow through you, and in your life. Mentoring and healers training are available one-on-one. Workshop February 21, 7-9: Deepen your capacity to be love, connect with others, and feel life supporting you.

The Voice of the Heart By Chrissie Blaze

“When you love you should not say, “God is in my heart,” but rather, I am in the heart of God.” ~Kahlil Gibran The more we give thanks and the more we serve, the more we open our hearts. When we do this on a regular basis, light will begin to shine through us. We then become virtual radiators of the energy of Love, which the late Spiritual Master, Dr. George King termed ‘spiritual energy’. Dr. King was ahead of his time, and one thing he taught in the 1960s was that the most important problem facing humanity was what he termed “the Spiritual energy crisis”, or a lack of this energy of the heart. He knew that if enough people were to radiate spiritual energy – through their compassionate prayers, thoughts, and actions - it would help and uplift others and there would be a growing desire to share, to serve and to heal. It is when we remain wrapped up in our own small worlds that we seem to forget we are One; that everyone’s problems are also ours. As one human family, we share in each other triumphs, just as we share in the failures. We share in crime and in wars, just as much as we share in compassionate actions. Our everchanging karmic patterns improve with each selfless decision – and so too does the karmic pattern of humanity. Spiritual energy is the energy we truly need on this planet – more than oil or gas or electricity. Dr. King taught that this is the

precious power that heals, brings harmony, peace, and enlightenment to ourselves and our world. The beauty of this is that we don’t have to wait for the religious leaders or politicians to show us how to solve our problems. It is simple: just as we plug in a lamp and have light, so too can we plug ourselves into God through the Love of our hearts and radiate light. We are born to do this and, when we do this, we help and heal those around us – and, to some degree, the entire world is lifted. We should never underestimate ourselves, nor should we underestimate the power of our hearts. Realize the incredible fact, as revealed through the work of the Institute of HeartMath, that your heart is an electrical organ which produces the largest amount of electrical energy in our bodies – forty to sixty times more powerful even than your brain! When we live more fully from our hearts, we are more powerful: we are strong, honest and true. Living from the heart doesn’t just mean being nice. We can appear to be nice by burying our heads in the sand rather than saying what needs to be said. We can be nice by pretending all is well when it is obviously not. Obviously, we should always try to be kind and thoughtful, but one equally important aspect of compassion is to speak with the authentic voice of the heart, whatever the cost to us. I was fortunate to be a close student of Dr. George King for over twenty years. He showed me the way of the heart through his example, his teachings and his global mission. He was a visionary and I know that in the future, he will be recognized and revered far more than when he was alive. It is usually the case with pioneers, and Dr. King was a spiritual pioneer.

In The Aetherius Society that he founded, we are celebrating 2019 as the Centennial year of his birth in 1919 and later this year his Biography will be published. I hope you can join me for the first lecture this year about this remarkable man and Master, and how his unique mission has laid new foundations of spirituality on this Earth.

It also improves circulation and lung function, and may even reduce heart disease risk as effectively as brisk walking and cycling. That’s good news for yogis of all levels, including men, who now account for nearly one in five people doing yoga. Relaxing yoga poses are particularly good for heart health. BREATHE DEEPLY Breathing deeply while you do gentle poses will help your heart even more. A recent study found that yogic 2:1 breathing—with an exhalation twice as long as the inhalation—is an effective tool to help manage hypertension. Breathing this way calms your nervous system and lowers your heart and respiratory rate to help reduce blood pressure.

Stepping onto the mat for a little yoga is one of the best things you can do for your heart. The latest research finds yoga enhances cardiovascular health in a number of ways, from calming the nervous system and reducing disease-causing inflammation to taming hypertension and boosting beneficial HDL cholesterol.

Give it a try as you hold each asana (pose): Inhale through your nose to a count of two and exhale through your nose to a count of four. Focusing on your breath also helps you relax into each pose and deepen its benefits.

Specific crystals can be used to help us forgive, heal and open our hearts. Squeeze one in your hand while doing the forgiveness affirmations.

Crystals for Forgiveness and Opening the Heart

Yoga is Great for Heart Health

Forgiveness is an important part of healing, not just for ourselves but also for others that are involved. Not dealing with forgiveness can lead to self- hatred, and resentment toward others. If this is not dealt with, it can cause disease. When I recommend that people need to forgive in order to heal themselves, I often hear them say, “How can I forgive someone for doing this to me?”

Rhodochrosite heals wounds, purifies and energizes our base, sacral and heart chakra, and pulses love to everyone and thing.

Understanding is a great key to knowing why people choose to act in certain ways. It can be easier to start with the person’s actions first, then work on forgiving the person. Understanding helps us see learned behaviors. Life-old ingrained patterns make people act that way; they don’t know any other way than what they were taught and how they were raised. A simple, effective forgiveness technique that works well on many levels is imagining that you and the other person are sitting across from each other. Say, “I acknowledge myself for being a co-creator in this situation. I love myself; I accept myself as co-creator of this situation. I love myself. I forgive myself for co-creating this situation. I love myself. I release this situation and let it go now.” Then say, “I acknowledge the other person’s name for co-creating this situation. I acknowledge myself for cocreating this situation. I love you. I love myself. I accept you for co-creating this situation. I accept myself for cocreating this situation. I love you. I love myself. I forgive you for co-creating this situation. I forgive myself for co-creating this situation. I love you. I love myself. I release this situation and let it go now.”

Dioptase clears and stimulates all our chakras; it’s a potent healer and alleviator of pain and is a stone of forgiveness. It cleanses our hearts of old resentment and guilt, bringing clarity and understanding. Pink and green tourmaline: green tourmaline helps us see and come from our heart space with compassion; it opens our heart chakra and third eye chakra, strengthening our visionary capabilities. Pink tourmaline stimulates the heart and crown chakra bringing about joy, peace, and higher levels of love. Emerald green tourmaline opens, stimulates and activates our heart, creating harmonious lifestyles.

This Is How We Create Love By Deirdre Hade

It is my longing that makes me love you intensely, For I yearn to be loved from the heart. It is my eternity that makes me love you long, For I have no end. – Mechtild of Magdeburg, German mystic of the Beguines, 1282 Love is mystical in the sense that science is not yet able to quantify it. But science does agree that how we view reality is held within our brain. We don’t really know what real love is until we experience it clearly. Many times we fall in love and then wonder, “Was that really love, or was that love false?” We get baffled by love, we get betrayed by love, we get let down by love, and then our human story of loss unfolds and disappointment becomes our belief of love. Clarity of Love Is the Resurrection in the Faith of Love We are now on the precipice of a great change, a great momentum in the history of humanity- The Age of Surprise. We’re seeing globally what the lie of love looks like, what false promises look like, what false judgment looks like. We are seeing the lie in front of us so we can learn how not to lie. The essence of true love cannot lie. We Are Here to Love We were born to flourish in the potential of our birthright, love. Love is the dream you cried out as you birthed from your mother’s womb screaming, “I am here, I am here, I have arrived!” We spend the rest of our lives trying to find our true voice, the clarity of love, again. There Are Many Kinds of Love There is the great love of the Divine Presence, the bliss, the Oneness of All. That love actually transcends our human experience. It is the state wherein the one are many and the many are one.

The experience of the oneness of being is the blissful experience of communion with a Greater Reality and is the most wonderful and fulfilling kind of love. It is still not enough, though, because we are human. Even experiencing that incredible place of oneness that the Yogis speak of, we are still left with a longing for the human experience of love, the closeness of a companion, the warmth of a community. Having experienced the transcendental state of love many times, I’ve come to believe that to truly transform as humans, to be truly enlightened, we must experience both of these types of love- the divine love and the human love. To deny oneself of one or the other is like eating a piece of cake while taking off all the frosting; you don’t really get to enjoy the pleasure of the full cake. The idea that human love is not as holy as divine love has led us to believe that we are not capable of loving each other with the complete capacity with which we can love the Father God or the Mother Divine. But if we are in fact divine beings, if we are in fact made in the image of God, then as we love one another in our humanness, this love is also capable of being a divine love, because we are divine beings, created from divine light in a divinely human form. Love Is the Myriad of Experience Love is like a diamond of rainbow colors. Each facet is beautiful. Sometimes you can step back and see the entire diamond and say, “Oh yes, there are many beautiful facets.” Then, sometimes you’re inside the diamond; you’re inside one facet or another. These are the different aspects and experiences of love. Each experience is important. Each facet as part of the whole creates the diamond’s brilliance. Love is like that. Love Is Clarity of Consciousness Clarity of consciousness is like clear water. It’s a superconductor. It is a carrier of frequency, and love is a frequency.

Love Is Intimacy At its core, human love is about becoming truly intimate with another and understanding the other person. When you love someone, you desire to love them the way they want to be loved. There is a learning curve to this. But you want to put in the time and the effort because, well, you love the other person. Love Requires Maturity It takes a mature person to see, know, feel and sustain true love. Love requires contemplation and reflection. Was I my most loving self today? How can I love better? Love Requires Wisdom Without wisdom, love breaks. Unlike the diamond, love is fragile, even the divine love. Without constant practice, communion with the divine slips away like a glove in the night. Wisdom keeps the enemy of love, the ego mind, at bay, ensuring your love is sustained and nurtured to grow and grow. To have a fulfilling experience here in this human world we require both kinds of love: the divine communion and the human communion. It is that simple. Yet, it is that complex. We are the complicated diamond of 8 billion facets attempting to love the best we know how. And that is where “the one are many and the many are one” gets complicated. Clarity of love is the love divine that drives us on our journey to become more than we ever thought we could be. Love. Human love, the touch of the senses, the support of one to another – this ultimately is the love that will heal our world. To experience divine love is to know how to give human love. And this is how we create love. Deirdre Hade Deirdre Hade is a mystic, artist, and visionary elucidating the spiritual world. Visit: www.deirdrehade.com P a g e 23

8 Ways to Open Your Heart Chakra A balanced heart chakra is a beautiful thing. However at some point you may encounter blockages in this area. A myriad of life circumstances can cause problems in your heart center—from break-ups, health issues to low self-esteem. An unhealthy heart chakra can exhibit many signs and symptoms—including being defensive, critical, controlling, suspicious, withdrawn, possessive and afraid of letting go. When in balance an open heart chakra displays acceptance in others, life and yourself. Here’s 8 ways to open your heart. 1. Be green. Get out in nature. Let the varying greens surround you—and begin to heal you. 2. See green. Visualize a strong, clear green light filling up your heart center—located in the center of your sternum and below your shoulder blades. 3. Breathe green. With each inhale imagine your heart center—and possibly the rest of your body—filling up with a soft, green light, and with every exhale feel your heart center purge pent-up negativity. Don’t beforceful on your exhalations. Focus more energy on your positive, “green” inhalation. 4. Be love. Being a martyr is a sign of imbalance for this chakra. Allow yourself to be loved—including, and most

especially, by yourself. 5. Give love. One of the best and easiest ways to cleanse and balance this chakra is by loving others unconditionally and unselfishly. 6. The grass isn’t always greener. It’s often human nature to naysay. Resist the urge to find fault in everything. Be thankful for what you already have. 7. Practice yoga. Try camel pose. A blocked heart chakra often means a blocked throat chakra, too, and camel pose balances them both. Focus on elongating your lower back while focusing on the stretch and opening in your upper back. Really let go and feel your heart center lift and open. 8. Forgive. A lot of blockages in this chakra are fostered by not letting go of past hurts, anger, grief, regret, etc. Let go. If you need professional counseling, putting it off only makes your healing more challenging and prolonged. Take care of yourself and try to also remember that when each door closes a new one opens. Opening the heart chakra after a period of grief or personal struggle is not easy. Be patient and kind to yourself during the process. Letting go of what we don’t need to carry allows us to make room for new and better life opportunities, and learning to embrace and love yourself—for better or for worse—is a great place to begin.

WHAT IS LOVE...

Stabilize The Undercurrent By Gwendolyn Esco Davis

“Be true to your heart... put your whole heart and soul into it, and then whatever you do, it will shine through.” Jamie Brewer One of my most treasured activities was sailing a boat up and down the bodies of water surrounding Michigan. In sailing, it takes everything you’ve got, your inner strength, to make it rewarding. Your reward is being on the water in peace and in silence with the movements of the waves and the open skies. Sailing a boat calls for quick action, a blending of feeling with the wind and water as well as with the very heart and soul of the boat itself. Sailing teaches alertness and courage and, gives in return, a joyousness and peace that but few sports afford. There are times the sail is smooth, and there are times the wind is too strong or not at all. Then, you adjust the sails to become balanced and steady with the currents and the winds.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. (love remains)

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 26

A body of water gives many of us a sense of connection to the greater universe, a connection to our heart center. We feel with our heart, emotions are from the heart, fear is from the heart –- not the mind. The center of our personal inner universe is the heart. When we are in a state of inner peace, it is the heart that we are lead by. As in life, when the wind blows in an adverse direction in an unwavering current, we take action and adjust our sails, putting our heart and soul in the effort. Whatever happens, you work in all earnest to re-adjustments and then ride the waves as you are heading for a clear navigation point. The undercurrent of the Detroit River is unforgiving. It takes a highly skilled person to navigate it safely. Sailors track back and forth on the waters. Going in a direct straight line is nearly impossible. Being a good sailor depends on how we handle crises, how we handle mistakes we have made, how we absorb our invaluable knowledge and sense of skills –- such as the depth of what our understanding brings -- then we might still miss the mark. Our life is never a straight line. We must track sideways, back and forth and sometimes backward to get to our destination. Thus, all along it is not the destination that gives us subsistence, but it is the voyage that is everything. It is knowing that our stabilizer is the anchor, and the anchor is the heart and soul of the sailor. Our internal anchor stabilizes the undercurrents of our daily life. On our voyage of life, many times in order to stabilize, we must drop anchor until the waters calm; or, we can adjust our sails to balance and remain steady.

January 2019 Solar Eclipse Effect on Michigan Chart By Richard Weber

A solar eclipse occurred on Saturday, January 5, at 8:27 pm, Eastern Time, at 15º Capricorn. This eclipse is a partial eclipse and only visible in East Asia, the Northern Pacific, and the Southwest Alaska which means that the effect will not be as intense as the eclipse on August 2017. When looking at the effect of eclipses, they do not cause things to occur; they exacerbate the energies that are already there by intensifying the whole chart, not just what the eclipse aspects and the effect is usually from 3 to 6 months after the eclipse depending on the intensity. This is a South Node eclipse which means that issues coming up are also around facing our past. When looking at the State of Michigan chart using January 26, 1837, Detroit, MI chart, we see the February solar eclipse will square the Natal and Progressed Pluto which intensifies the difficult aspects in this chart. The following are the aspects to the Michigan chart: · Transiting Pluto is Square the Progressed North and South Nodes, Quincunx Progressed Venus, Quincunx Natal Mars, Quincunx Progressed Jupiter, and Quincunx Progressed Chiron. · Transiting Neptune will Square Progressed Moon and quincunx Natal Jupiter. · Transiting Uranus Conjoins North Node and opposes the South Node, Square Progressed Sun, quincunx Natal Moon, Squares Progressed Mercury, and Quincunx Progressed Mars. · Transiting Saturn quincunx Natal Mars. · Progressed Mars conjoined Natal Moon. The Sun (which represents the leader, 28

or Governor of the State) is in hard aspect to Uranus (which revolutionizes). Gretchen Whitmer (the newly elected Governor of Michigan) will experience a great deal of chaos which is indicated due to the Legislature being Republican and the Governor is a Democrat.

beginning of the belt-tightening that will be going on. This will also make things difficult to fund any new initiatives by the State. Mars (which represents crime, criminals, law enforcement, and lawyers) is in aspect to Pluto, Uranus, and Saturn. We are seeing instances of what appears to be inappropriate behavior by police in their dealings with others that sometimes seems criminal. This is bringing to the surface problems that need to be addressed with our law enforcement agencies so that they can more effectively serve the public good.

The Moon (which represents the people and water) is in hard aspect to Neptune, Uranus, and Mars which means that there is confusion, fear, chaos, and confrontation within the masses and continued difficulty with the State’s water supply. We will continue to see the polarization of ideologies without compromise due to the fact that people are acting and reacting out of their fears and confusion.

Jupiter (which represents common beliefs, religion, and the legal system) is in aspect to Pluto and Neptune. This is bringing up our issues, fears, and misperceptions contributing to the polarization of our common beliefs. Also, the clergy is still plagued with the problem of pedophile priests.

Mercury (which represents the auto industry, all forms of communication, and the roads) is in hard aspect to Uranus. We see this with the auto industry having to close plants, layoffs, etc., to reposition themselves to adapt to future perceived changes in the market. Also, with this influence, Gretchen Whitmer will probably have a hard time fixing the roads.

Chiron (the planetoid that has to do with self-care) is the aspect to Pluto. Under this influence, Michigan is facing issues around taking care of ourselves. This includes all aspects of our lives including financially, socially, etc.

Venus (the planet that represents all the things that make life pleasant including money) is in aspect to Pluto which indicates there probably will be issues with money. The layoffs and plant closings by General Motors is just the

North and South Nodes are in aspect to Pluto and Uranus, where we will be pushed to face our issues and be true to ourselves around moving forward in our lives.

Follow Your Authentic Heart By Scarlet Ireland

“Have the Courage to Follow Your Heart and Intuition. They somehow know what you truly want to become.” Steve Jobs Now is a time when countless people are “awakening”. In this awakening, there is a clear realization, that we humans are much greater than we may have previously believed. The common model of our existence; to be born, complete predetermined education, socially /culturally “fit in”, perhaps marry and have children, retire, maybe a vacation in -between, and die, is just not enough for many anymore. Especially, with the seemingly precarious state of the world. This may be an over-simplification of the message; however, the shift is real. Much of the younger generation already profoundly understand this and many more of us are starting to have the revelation too. We all, in our own unique way, have a deep knowing that we are unlimited Beings meant to create and collaborate from our authentic heart-space. “Your Heart Knows Things That Your Mind Cannot Explain” Anonymous Yes! All Good! We are awake! We want to be heart-centered and authentic….. Now What? Maybe it starts with curiosity? Without limitations of what the mind says can and cannot be done, explore. What gives you a sense of joy and enthusiasm thinking about the possibilities? Write it down. Perhaps expand the ideas with generosity. Could this idea benefit others as well? Write it down. Continue to follow where your heart leads and experiment. It may be surprising what amazing

opportunities arise when intuition leads, and defined action steps follow. Seeking support in the journey can be exceptionally helpful and effective too. This is where collaboration starts to come in. Working with a support “team” of one or many can help minimize the struggle of change and provide needed assistance for ease and grace to flow. These are steps I was able to follow some years ago. My heart led me back to my love of art. My intuition guided me to combine it with my perceptive abilities and my action step directed me to offer it to those who would benefit. I now offer personal energy art sessions.

fulfilling that divine prophecy of spiritual freedom is that you think your obstacles are insurmountable. But that is just not true. What you think you believe from your past lives, this life, family patterns, and DNA, are really only fragments of used energy held up in your nervous system which is relayed to your heart. Your heart interprets this pre-used energy and returns the old pattern of messages to your brain, which sends it back to your nervous system, continuing the cycle of limiting beliefs. For example, you may think, “Oh, I’m depressed because so and so didn’t call me back,” when your depression actually stems from an old pattern of loss, a non-truth from the past that does not truly exist now. Non-truths cause disconnection between us.

Reconnecting To Your Heart: A Guided Meditation From The Archangels By Deirdre Hade

As a mystic, I have been receiving information and guidance from the angels since I was a very young girl. As I watch the news, what I see is a world of souls searching to make sense of the daily surprise that is thrown upon us. Recently in my meditation, The Archangels (the architects of the Heavenly Realms) came to me with a message for our time. I would like to share this with you. “We the Archangels of Light are here with you now. We are walking among you. All we need to accomplish our mission to help humanity is for enough of you to open your hearts and become aware of the Oneness of All, that we, you and every aspect of creation are part of One Living Being. This state of understanding will bring the necessary wisdom for the wars of your world to cease. At this time, your world has a window of opportunity. The winds of grace are blowing. We are here to bring you the strength of heart you need to reconnect with every other heart. Perseverance will bring the virtue of your full heart’s potential. Stay the course with tenacity for this is what will turn the ship of destiny around in your personal life as well as in your world as a whole.” The Archangels ask us to break open our limited belief patterns and peer inside, for there is our hidden and lost light and our power to truly transform our world. In order to do this, we are being summoned to dive deep into the heart of our hearts. Since you were born, there have been many disappointments and many 30

betrayals. But these painful experiences need not stop you from expanding and living the truth of your heart. It is possible to live a beautiful heart-centered and fulfilling life. Your heart is the great magnifier. And your heart is young in this world. As you heal trauma and clear the obstacles to understand love in your heart, an unfolding of divine presence occurs. Your heart is the engine of your feelings and emotions. As your feelings align with the Oneness of All Creation, you enter into the original pattern of humanity; a pattern that heals instead of harms, a pattern of tolerance instead of intolerance, peace instead of war, and love, instead of hate. You are free. This is spiritual freedom. In spiritual freedom your mind, body, spirit and heart release enormous quantities of transforming energy, the radiant light which reconnects us soul to soul.

Here is a simple beginning meditation from Archangel Ariel that has helped me break this cycle of disconnection. Try this short meditation and see what magic grows. With your minds inner eye, look into your heart. Imagine that inside your heart is the most beautiful rose, a beautiful, incredible flower of light. In the middle of this rose, there are many gemstones of light. These gemstones of light are dancing and spinning, and as they turn they are like sparklers emitting a rainbow of light. Hold your attention on this jeweled center in your heart.

When we come together in the magnificence of who we are as noble, dignified human beings, grounded in our virtue, grounded in the core value of who we are, we are living in the heart of reconnected consciousness. When we come together to clear our trauma, we open the door to attaining wisdom. When we’ve cleared the obstacles to love, we are free. Spiritual freedom is the radiating connection between all living things. It is what heals. It is the language of nature. It is what the trees use to speak to one another around the globe. In spiritual freedom, you have the ability to send a message around the globe.

Now think of someone you love, someone you love so much that when you think of them your heart just melts. Do you feel it? Take that feeling of love in your heart for that person, place, or thing that makes your heart melt, and place this feeling of love within those spinning gems of light until they become a ring of light pulsating from your heart to form a ring of light around your heart. Allow this ring of light to turn. The Divine Presence is effortlessly clearing and rejuvenating your heart, radiating in pulses of love. This is the language of

The only thing keeping you from

w w w. B o d y M i n d S p i r i t G u i d e . c o m

February 2019

love, the language of nature filling your body. You can even take this journey one step further. Take a deep breath. Is there someone you don’t feel love for—someone who is really giving you a problem, either now or in the past? Take this feeling of love, the ring of light from your heart, and imagine you are giving this to them as a gift. What happens? Effortless forgiveness. Feel the gems stones of love expanding. This is a mystical experience of changing a harmful pattern. This is how to energetically heal old wounds, misunderstandings, and pain. This is how you enter into the Oneness Factor of all things. How do you feel inside your body now? How does your heart feel? Greet life with your open heart. Experience the inner peace of a free heart, and more happiness, greater opportunity, synchronicity, and wisdom will follow. This is reconnecting to your heart. The big task of healing our world is going to take all of us; it’s going to take you, me and millions of others. By doing this simple heart meditation daily, you have taken a big step to heal. I have committed my life to this practice, and my life has been filled with miracle after miracle in health, prosperity, and love. But this only happens when I make my daily practice of re-connecting to my heart my top priority. Give it a try; you might be happily surprised by the results! Deirdre Hade is a Mystic, Poet, Author, and Guide.

Matters of the Heart By Carolyn Simon

During the month of February, there is much to do about the heart center that represents, for many of us, LOVE! There are many definitions for the word “love” and just as many expressions of love. For the sake of simplicity, I am going to focus on the definition offered from the book, “The Revealing Word: A Dictionary of Metaphysical Terms.” It defines love as, “the pure essence of the whole human family. Of all the attributes of God, love is undoubtedly the most beautiful. In Divine Mind, love is the power that joins and binds in divine harmony the universe and everything in it; the great harmonizing principle known to man.” What a wonderful concept to know, believe and practice. To know that there is a harmonizing energy that, when applied, can bring healing to any conflict that might be occurring in your life. It does not matter if the conflict is within your own being, with a friend, with your parent, with a sibling, your significant other, or with your child; heart centering love can neutralize the conflict and restore harmony I was reading an article called, “Young Hearts: Insights on that Crazy Little Thing Called Love”, from the young at heart! These were children ages 7-10 being asked the following questions regarding matters of the heart: What do people do when they go on a date? “On the first date, they just tell each other lies, and that usually gets them interested enough to go on the second date.” --M. age 10 When is it okay to kiss someone? “When they are rich.“ --P. age 7 “The law says you have to be 18 years old, so I wouldn’t mess with that.” --C.

age 7 How do you decide who to marry? “You’ve got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, then she should keep the chips and dip coming.”--A. age 10 How do you decide who to marry? “No person decides before they grow up who they’re going to marry. God decides it way before and you get to find out later who you’re stuck with.” --K. age 10 How would you make your marriage work? “Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a truck.” --R. age 10 I realize that there are times when demonstrating unconditional love is difficult. Part of unconditional loving is forgiving, and we must remember that forgiving is of benefit to us. These are mighty twin powers that assist us all in living the best life possible. So, if you are having difficulty releasing an unkind act or are dealing with unwanted conflict, perhaps counseling and hypnotherapy can assist you in putting your life back on track. Life is full of possibilities!

that like attracts like. Spend some time working on yourself. Learn to love you! When you can confidently say that you are complete, all on your own, and can unconditionally love and accept yourself, you will attract loving people and exciting adventures into your life.

Feeling Complete By Susan deCaussin

One of the most common concerns amongst my clients has to do with not being able to find the right life partner. They feel incomplete and broken without someone to share their day-to-day adventures with. They wonder why they can’t find and attract that perfect person into their lives. Many are overcome with a sense of sadness and despair, feeling that they’re in an endless cycle of failed relationships. This reminds me of the famous line from the movie, “Jerry Maguire” that states, “You complete me.” It’s a beautiful thought, however, it leads us to believe that we are somehow incomplete without that perfect person in our lives. This is, in my opinion, the main problem. If we can’t feel whole and complete as an individual, we aren’t ready to step into a meaningful relationship with anybody. You should never rely on another person to complete you. You should feel complete all on your own. We are all vibrational beings, sending out a frequency to the world around us like a radio signal. The energy that we emit, attracts an energetic pattern that mirrors our own. So, when you are feeling down and discouraged – less than whole – you’re sending out a signal that matches that vibration, and this is definitely not going to attract the person you’re looking for. The first step to bringing a healthy, loving relationship into your life is to start by having a healthy and loving relationship with yourself. If you want to meet someone who is self-confident, self-assured, outgoing and successful, you must first be able to identify those qualities in yourself. The best way to invite healthy relationships, of all sorts, into your life is by making yourself healthy first! When you take the time to practice self-care and self-love, you begin to value everything that makes you uniquely you. You learn to love, appreciate and show gratitude for those qualities that set you apart from everyone else, instead of constantly trying to become what you think others want you to be. I see this over and over again -- clients who continuously try to bypass the process of working on themselves, and instead, go searching for someone to step in and make them feel whole. Those who trust in the process, and put the time and energy into accepting and loving themselves, are able to elevate their vibration and attract the right people and circumstances into their lives. So whether you are already in a relationship that you’d like to improve, or are currently searching for a partner, remember

Heart Opening Health

3. Read stories in the Bible or other good books that talk about seeing with more than your eyes, and instead, with an inner understanding that we are all connected to one another because of the Christ presence within us, since we are all made in God’s image.

Tips to Keep your Heart HOPing: Healthy, ‘Open’, and at Peace By Faith Brower

Heart Healthy -- Physically & Spiritually: 1. Walk, bike, run, rollerblade, snowshoe, or make love to your partner surrounded by nature, in the woods, by water. Take in your environment. Be present! 2. Eat less sugar and low fatty foods, choosing bread made of sourdough for example, instead of whole wheat. 3. Quit smoking. 4. Keep your stress down by talking it out, sharing with friends or family, or find a therapist. 5. Find joy as often as possible.

By Chef Deborah Lieder

February, the month of love, when pink and red decorate our stores and we are reminded to focus upon those we love most. With the advent of psychology, we’ve learned that in order to love others most effectively, we first need to love ourselves. And loving ourselves means opening up to our heart center, in touch with what our body and soul are telling us. The way we allow our body to function to its fullest while staying healthy lies in the food we eat.

4. Forgive instead of judging and closing your heart. Why? Because YOU will benefit. It is not about them but you we are talking about now. Keeping an open heart requires radical acts of compassion in order to keep you out of the ego trap of righteousness, anger and revenge. Forgiveness cuts the chain that binds us to them. Anger, revenge, and righteousness keep us chained to them. Yuk! -- Get away!

Heart honoring foods stem back to our cardiovascular system. This system brings oxygen, nutrients, blood, and water to our cells as well as transports and removes waste. We all know if the waste is not expelled properly, it leads to disease. Back-ups and blockages affect other systems and our body is not allowed to function to its fullest. In order to keep these places free and clear, there are some heart-healthy foods we can incorporate into our diet.

Heart at Peace -Physically & Spiritually:

We need healthy fats in the form of olive oil, nuts, and avocado along with salmon and tuna. These omega-3’s and 6’s allow our organs extra cushion and lower cholesterol. High potassium foods like potatoes, tomatoes, and banana help lower blood pressure along with keeping blood sugar levels low. Legumes, a great source of protein without the unhealthy fats, also help lower blood sugar.

1. Let go of things you don’t control.

6. Feel accomplishments. Slow down and take them in. Be proud! 7. See beauty everywhere, instead of what could be improved. 8. Smile and laugh often with friends and by yourself. 9. YOU decide what to focus on by choosing what makes you feel good and fulfilled, not stressed.

2. Do your most formidable undertaking first thing in the morning. 3. Don’t worry about what others are thinking...or even saying. Let it go! Stop caring so much! 4. Take 10 deep breathes slowly in and remember to slowly release them.

Dark leafy greens, green tea, and avocado all are high in antioxidants which help fuel your body and rid it of toxins. All these contribute to heart honoring foods, our source, our center that allows all other aspects of our body to function.

Faith Brower

Heart Open -- Physically & Spiritually: Faith Brower is the 1. Read about trust and love between animals and humans, about interspecies stories like the companionship between an orangutan and a dog. 2. Watch movies that make you cry or simply touch your heart. Realize you are not alone. Appreciate your feelings.

Living from a space of love starts with ourselves. As we learn self-love, whether it be through food, taking a nap, having a spa day, or whatever our version to rejuvenate is, it will allow us to connect with our heart center and love those around us even more.

meditate and allow for inner wisdom to arise. Don’t stress or worry about figuring things out. Don’t have endless conversations with people that go in circles. Quieting your heart brings answers and clues that lead to healing and harmony. If single, you can draw a solid person who matches your values. Work-wise you’ll be challenged, yet eager to learn. You can even move into more leadership. Just beware of gossip. Stay out of it and let people’s egos spin and crash around you!

Spiritual Horoscopes By Aluna Michaels, M.A.

quarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) — Happy birthday Aquarius! This’ll be a breakthrough year about love and finances. Meditate and open your mind to see what blocks fulfillment in these areas. Write down what you discover. Don’t pick on yourself, but get peaceful and become aware of steps toward solutions. Find a trusted friend to help you stay accountable, as you gently alter your thoughts and behaviors. A big clue can be forgiving childhood patterns instilled from family. All wounds can heal through love, patience and action!

isces (Feb. 19 – March 20) — Make sure you allow yourself to play, have fun and spend time with friends! You tend to work so hard on your spiritual growth and personal improvement that you can drift into morbid reflection. Trust that the hard work you do is still actively impacting you even when taking attention off of your “flaws”! In fact, more healing can happen during that rest and relaxation time. Have a prosperous friend or trusted advisor give assistance with finances. Breakthroughs with money happen as you create a balanced budget.

ries (March 21 – April 19) — It’s a great career month! You can get a job or assignment you’ve been striving for. Mars is still in your sign, giving you

inspiration and energy to start new goals — however, be sure to meditate daily so that you use your power most efficiently and wisely. Your intuition is also at a high pint, so take advantage of it! Ponder commitment issues in relationships. Make sure you’re not creating distance from your partner. Also, watch for “being bored” which can mask fear of intimacy!

eo (July 23 – Aug. 22) — Balance your enthusiasm for spiritual growth with gentle self-care. Evolving your consciousness isn’t a competition. If you feel perfectionism creeping in, or jealousy at other’s accomplishments, try going softer, not harder. Practice deep breathing in the day, as well as meditation, getting enough rest, body care sessions or yoga. Then you’ll have energy reserves to “go for it” when the time is right, and not be burned out. You can also get a work promotion, or praise from superiors. Your heart and pure motives are acknowledged by those who matter!

aurus (April 20 – May 20) — Reconnect with your love of meditation, yoga, or your favorite spiritual practices! Pay extra attention to dreams for inspiration and guidance. Spend time with friends who are aligned with your metaphysical ideas. The more you talk about your internal reality, the more “real” it becomes. The validation keeps you on your path of self-discovery. Mars moves into your sign for two months, giving energy and courage for change. You can start a new relationship; go for a challenging job; or surprise yourself with shifts that previously made you apprehensive!

emini (May 21 – June 20) — It’s appropriate with Valentine’s Day approaching, because this month is about surrendering to love. Watch for inner defenses that push others away. Are you snarky and sarcastic? Are you chronically busy or distracted? Meditate on barriers that keep you from absorbing love. Do you dwell on negative beliefs about yourself? Do you choose partners with vastly different values and goals? Forgive yourself for all these patterns as you stay aware of them. Watch love flow in! Also, use the same investigative process on limits around financial abundance. Take a vigorous yoga class or even play sports to increase your enthusiasm for change and growth.

ancer (June 21 – July 22) — If you’re struggling about relationships,

w w w. B o d y M i n d S p i r i t G u i d e . c o m

irgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) — Much like your Gemini friends, meditate on the ways you push intimacy away. Intimacy can mean love, relationships, peacefulness, prosperity or joy. Your biggest obstacle is probably self-criticism. Vow to stop the “compare and despair” trap. Working toward self-improvement doesn’t mean you can’t be cherished now, as you are. Practice saying “yes” to positive feelings, to compliments, to abundant possibilities. Let your partner or a trusted friend know about this inner journey so they can support you.

ibra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) — You can be starting a sexy new relationship! If partnered, you can re-spark primal attraction. Either way, this month awakens your passion for life in all areas. You’ll also feel bold enough to be direct about what isn’t working in relationships. You can clear-out issues and build healthier February 2019

communication and connection. Make sure your home is comfortable and relaxing. Have a dedicated space for meditation that’s inviting and soothing. You can also heal childhood “stuff” that interferes with joy and confidence. Reconnect with old friends who really know who you are at your core

corpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) — Like Libra pals, you can be starting a new relationship that’s not only passionate, but aligned with your deepest values. You get closest to people who you know have the capacity for deep communication and insights into life and themselves. Meditate on being patient with those in your life who do not have those abilities, especially co-workers. Also, be sure to rest this month and make time to eat well. Eliminate foods that cause physical inflammation or emotional agitation, like coffee, sugar or gluten.

agittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) — Valentine’s month brings lots of opportunities for love, play and joy! Even in a long-term connection, make efforts to revitalize your energy together. Focus on finances. Meditating on prosperity expands your wallet so you can pay bills and debts while still saving and even having money to burn! You can get a promotion at work or feel newly inspired by your job. Also, try active and challenging forms of yoga.

apricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) — Venus is in your sign, bringing self-love, prosperity and general good feelings! Meditate on having the discipline to “dwell” on positive thoughts, beliefs and outcomes. It’s too easy as a Capricorn to focus on negative things that you would say are “realistic”. Choose an upbeat friend to have conversations with, about gratitude each day. You’ll have more physical energy, less problems in relationships and amazing breakthroughs in many areas of your life!

“A SAMple of Love” on Body Mind Spirit Radio! By Karin Sherman

I’m so excited to share with you, my readers, that beginning February 4, at 1pm, I’ll be able to brighten up your Mondays with my new show, “A SAMple of Love” on Body, Mind, Spirit Radio! I’ll be sharing the link to this show on my social media and through my newsletters to make listening more accessible. “Sample of Love” came to me after the death of my father, Sam. After his passing, I was left with the inability to write. I had been a writer for over 25 years, with two successful blogs, a regular column and clients all over the country. But it seemed as though my grief had taken over and my writing days were a thing of the past. Since writing is my passion and my career of choice, I decided to change the name of my blog and dedicate it to my father. While I’ll still write about the same topics (love, relationships, daily thoughts) I’ll have his name with me while I continue to spread love and wisdom in his beautiful memory. My personal journey to finding permanent love hasn’t been simple. This adventure was one of getting to know myself first and, in doing so, figuring out what I was looking for in a true partner. I not only share my insight in this blog as a successful relationship coach but as a woman with a passion for love, who has seen it all. I have personally experienced being single, married, divorced and single again. I have lived through a second time on the “dating-goround” seeking my “forever” partner… whom I have finally found. A Sample of Love’s goal in both radio and in the blog, is to share relatable life experiences from myself, my friends and family and those whom I’ve coached to inspire and guide through all relationship hurdles. Join me in seeing truths, insights and methods intended to help with your personal relationship path. This dose of reality will inspire you to ask the hard questions while creating clarity regarding your relationship needs and wants -- with the ultimate intent to motivate through self-awareness, spirituality and the SAMpling of love from myself and experts. We are all samples of love. Love, Karin, For all inquiries or to be on the show, connect with us at: kjk4570@gmail.com or info@bodymindspiritguide.com

spiritual center, your highest self, your whole experience of the world changes. You can raise you

Guided by Your Heart By Miche Lame’

In this month of February, we focus on the heart. Love and gratitude -- that’s the train you want to ride on. Did you know that Christ said that the longest road is from the head to the heart? In this world, we are often taught to lead with our head, think our way through things, and that things have to make sense. There is little about connecting with and being guided by your heart like you did when you were born. When you were born, you remembered being from the Divine, that you are divine. As you got older, usually by age five, you forgot and lost connection with who you really are -- Divine. When you allow yourself to sink down into your heart center, you allow yourself to connect into your Divine, higher self for guidance. You connect with guidance from the Divine if you are open to it. You have emotions from the Divine to provide guideposts to your sacred path. When you desire to know what choices to make to keep on your transformative path of enlightenment and growth, listen to your heart. Listen for your heart’s song of joy, the pull, the tug towards experiences that will guide your own self-growth. Just close your eyes. Take some deep breaths through your heart chakra down into your belly. Feel, see the Divine healing light flow through you and exhale any negative energy, any tenseness. Just let it go. Feel what your heart is telling you. It will be something positive and connected with love, gratitude, compassion, joy -- a positive emotion. The more you connect with your higher self, the higher your vibration will become. You start responding and acting from a place of love and gratitude. As you know, the Law of Attraction is that like energy attracts like energy. There is also the scientific knowledge that where the energy flows, that’s what grows. So, as you connect with your heart more, and bring more Divine love and gratitude into your life, that grows and attracts more experiences and people that have a higher vibration. As your inner self transforms, so does your outer self and the world around you. Even your perception of events will change as the vibration of love and gratitude takes over and expands. Being open and at peace by connecting the Divine, letting love and gratitude flow through you and responding from your 44

vibration, your heart energy, into the frequency and vibration that you want to tune into. You can’t fool the universe, the Divine, so it’s a choice to do the work. Practice going into your heart center and letting Divine energy flow through. If you have difficulty, close your eyes and take some deep belly breaths. Think about someone you love -- a family member, a friend or a pet. Feel the warmth in your heart. See the warm love going out to the one you love. See that beam of love connecting with your loved one. Great. Now, see yourself with your loved one. Feel the love connecting you with yourself and your loved one. See and feel this Divine love expanding. As you practice this exercise, your connection with the Divine and love for yourself will grow, as will love for everyone and everything in the universe. You start mindfully living in Divine energy, a universe of love and abundance, and experience it more fully. You want love and gratitude in your life? Be the love and gratitude. It really is easy -- just make the choice and allow Divine love to flow through your heart. And be open to experiencing that love and gratitude in your life being attracted to you!

Focus on air, begin again with this chant, Khogreshmaayom

Let’s live the highest love reality, now!

Now meditate again for 11 minutes. Don’t worry about a perfect pronunciation just feel the sounds of each letter.

By Todd Stockwell

Hello my friends,

Focus on water and begin again with this chant, Vrayoolaffa Now meditate again for 11 minutes.

Hope everyone is loving and enjoying the exercises and awakening we’ve been doing this past year and especially the amazing growth that comes with them. I’m running into more and more of you letting me know how valuable these exercises are for you and I am honored to be able to help you all on your paths. It’s very exciting to hear your growth so please make sure to share your experience with me and others. It is very important at this time to do our highest work, be open to training with someone who can truly help you.The most important thing now is to be in the highest love space to reach that next level of consciousness. We have to let go of our lesser selves and truly love ourselves so we can love all. It’s cool to love chocolate but let’s love ourselves more. . We can continue with similar process that we have with a new focus. We will work inward so focus inward like we have in earlier exercises on the flame at the base of the heart chakra. As we did in those exercises, let’s begin with expanding that flame outward until it fills the room. Now also focus on a red flame just below your belly button. Expand them both out and focus on the red mixing with a golden light above your head and creating a golden peach light. Now expand that light to fill the universe. Lean forward slightly with your head, place your tongue to the roof of your mouth and take three deep breathes. State with conviction to the universe that you are the highest love of the universe.. Focus on the warmth within your heart and just below your belly button expanding even further out.. now focus on the back of the heart chakra opening up and the back of the flame just below your belly button blasting a flame outward and let your system connect. .While focusing on fire start with this chant, Aayaamaatooo Now meditate for 11 minute, set a timer.

Focus on Earth and begin again with this chant, Truvmashawahum Now meditate again for 11 minutes and focus entirely on your true path. Switch this up every day, one day do them all together, the next day split each part up at different times of the day. Do the first when you wake in the morning, second midday, and third before bedtime. Switch it up as many different ways as you can come up with. Let your self feel the expansion and connection. As always, it is very important to read and share this as much as possible it will help you, your path, your awakening, your enlightenment and your truest service to the Universe. Remember I am here to help support you and your growth so if you have any questions go to: I look forward to meeting you and hearing about your progress. www.beyond1111.com or https://www.facebook.com/ toddstockwell/. You can also reach me on Facebook, via the website, e-mail- serendipitylightcenter@yahoo.com or by phone call: 734-740-9110. Exciting news, I will be doing a very special QuantOm Highest Love Light Warrior Training February 16th and 17th, call for details. I will also have a booth and will be doing special empowerments and healing sessions this month at: Michigan Psychic Fair, Sunday February 24th, 12 pm until 6 pm, Troy, MI Be sure to check my Facebook page for exact locations.
