Why Are We Making This SO Difficult?!

Uncategorized

Hello My Lovelies,

My dear brothers and sisters…why are we making this so damn difficult?! Why are we making this “spiritual” life so difficult for ourselves and others?! Here’s some insight for you…you don’t need to DO anything to BE who you are! You don’t need to do anything to embody Divinity. You don’t need to visualize the rainbow bridge to uplift Gaia. You don’t need to go to any sacred site and flood in the crystalline grid or anything else to shine your Light. The DOing is in recognize we ALL are Spirit and living true to that.

We consistently aim to intellectualize Spirit, to intellectualize what it is we need to do to help Gaia, to intellectualize our relationships with each other and God, intellectualize…intellectualize…intellectualize. No more! “Who am I?” “Why am I here?” “Where will I go?” “How do I ascend quicker?” Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Now I am sorry if I sound quite cynical tonight, but I consistently see others constantly doing this, and I also find myself doing this. Here’s a suggestion…relax! Those who are reading this would consider themselves, “spiritual,” “Light-bearers,” “Indigos,” whatever other title you’d like to proclaim…but here’s one for you…I AM. Simply I AM. No more titles, no more labels, no more intellectualizing Spirit, no more spiritualized egos, I AM. We are ALL here to change the world in some way! That is exactly why all 7 billion of us are here…to remember our deepest knowing, to live from that Truth, and to inspire others to see that within themselves…plain and simple.

“I need to meditate THIS way, facing THIS direction, visualizing THIS thing in order for me to bring Light into Gaia.” When Gaia simply needs you to BE the Light! The Light comes from no where else but the silent space within your own heart! You are the Eternal God present in a physical vessel! Gaia needs you to BE You! Gaia needs You to live from the Truth within your own heart! Gaia needs you to proclaim to yourself that You are Source, that You are Spirit, that You are Forever, simply…I AM!

And another thing…you don’t need to quicken anything!!! You already are that!!! If you have conceived it in thought, then somewhere, you ARE that! You don’t need to quicken your manifestations…you need to relax and enjoy the unfolding of them! You need to sit back and watch as the Universe yields to you the beauty of your desire. This life experience is not made to just keep manifesting and manifesting and manifesting and manifesting…what kind of fun would that be?! You came forth knowing that as you conceived anything in thought and held true to that vision that you would undoubtedly receive exactly what you asked for! You KNEW that the joyous FUN part would be in witnessing the unfolding of that desire! Not in receiving the desire…that is a given! You can’t help but receive! The fun was in KNOWING that you were already that which desired to be, that you already had all that you desired, and watching as the simplest demonstrations of Source express exactly what it is you saw yourself already having!

This works just as well with Gaia. Gaia already IS healed. Gaia already HAS attained fifth dimension ascension…the work is done, so now you can sit back relax and walk through life with the understanding that you are already where you want to be! In walking with that attitude you have already expressed more Light than 100 visualization sessions! If you’re always asking to manifest quicker, manifest quicker, manifest quicker, yet you never listen to the guidance you are receiving, how are you going to manifest at all? The manifestation comes in accordance with your faith and belief that it already IS! And when you have that unmoving faith you can enjoy all the synchronicities that show you exactly what is already here.

There is nothing intellectual about faith…that is only something you can FEEL. Life is not about intellect, intellect, intellect, it is about feeling. Why do you LOVE sex so much, because in the midst of that moment with another extension of yourself you are free of thought, you are fully enraptured in the moment, touching, smelling, tasting your lover and in the moment you are silent! Unless of course you are just humping then your mind is more than likely busy with other things 😉 The BEST parts of life are felt, not intellectualized. Our thoughts are a gift, our emotions are a gift, and they should be treated as such.

We don’t NEED to know exactly how we are going to ascend! We don’t NEED to know exactly how we have changed the world. We don’t NEED to know how we’ll meet our perfect partner. We don’t NEED to know how we’ll enter our dream career, whatever that means to you. We don’t need to intellectualize it all. What is the fun in already having all the answers? If you had all the answers life would be SUPER boring!!! Life is so much more fun knowing that miracles will happen and leaving it up to Spirit to figure out how!

Feel your way through life. Listen to your heart, listen to your gut, listen to your intuition, those are far greater tools than your distracted mind and someone else’s opinion. Be thankful for your feelings and emotions, they are such wonderful gifts! Play, and enjoy the game of life! It’s all just a fun little rollercoaster. You won’t need to KNOW so much when you already FEEL what is right and what already IS. The intellect has no comprehension of Infinity, so stop using it to understand life. Feel your way within life and appreciate the inner knowing you already possess.

With All My Love,
Zach IAM

P.S. this post went all over the place!!! Haha! However, “Who am I” is an incredibly power-full question to ask yourself to be felt in your heart, not intellectualized 😉

“Divinity is God in every form, in every thing. The Christ is the Power to recognize that Divinity within.” ~Jesus

Thank You Zach…For Showing Me How To Live

Uncategorized
Tonight I am writing this for no one but myself. Typically I like to share messages and inspiration that I have recognized as a Universal Truth, but tonight I am simply writing for me.

I watched a video tonight of a young man who returned to Non-Physical from cancer yesterday. If any of you who read this would like to watch it I thoroughly recommend it, as it allows you to look at life in a completely different perspective. The video is of a young man named Zach Sobiech, who was diagnosed with osteosarcoma and given 6 months to live. The video is beauty-fully touching and the way this beauty-full soul lived his life reminded me of how to live mine.

Those of you who read these usually know that I tend to see the world a little differently than most. I see things with my heart and not my mind, yet that means in no way that I always practice what I preach. I do my absolute best to live the life I so deeply know is meant for all of us and that I write, speak, and act about but I get off track quite often as well.

Zach Sobiech, truly inspired me tonight through the way he lives his life. Although he has returned to the Non-Physical, he so eloquently reminded me of my own journey to where I am. In watching the video I continually was drawn to tears but the sadness and fear of loss in his family’s hearts, the same sadness and fear that I once witnessed in my own family’s hearts. Zach reminded me to JUMP! He reminded me, he made me FEEL, and he showed me how I want, and know, how to live life.

I can remember staring out the window of the hospital room knowing I would get out, and somewhere within me felt I had a large purpose, but unable to do anything I previously did. I couldn’t run, I couldn’t jump, I couldn’t play basketball, I could hardly walk 1/4 of a mile without being exhausted, and I told myself I would LIVE my life. Yet, as I sit here right now writing this, I continue to question if I am truly living the life I imagined for myself?

Sure I help people by training them, sure I help anyone I possibly can, sure I do my best to bring a smile to everyone’s face, but do I take command of my life with full faith that Source is supporting my decisions? Not always. Do I leap when I so dearly want to jump? Not always. Do I have full faith in my ability to affect people’s lives? Not always. Am I doing the things I told myself I wouldn’t let pass me by when I was healthy again? Not always…and not nearly enough.

I continue to push off each moment and say, “Oh the time wasn’t right. I’ll wait for next time.” But what if there is NO NEXT TIME?! I know exactly what it is to wonder if there ever will be a next time, many of us have. And yet I continue to find myself falling back in to comfortablitity. I continue to succumb to the fear of rejection, succumb to the, “Oh, it just doesn’t feel right.” When in all Truth I was just too afraid to leap, to afraid to trust, to afraid to LIVE.

Today, Zach has become my hero. Today, my dear brothers and sisters who returned to Non-Physical once again reminded me that, although we are Eternal beings, I still must jump no matter how scary it may seem. Today they reminded me that my life purpose is exactly what I say it is. Today they reminded me that I must always be true to my heart, speak from my heart, act from my heart, and live from my heart. They reminded me that I am still here for a reason! They reminded me that rejection never lasts, but uplifting the hearts of others always will.

Zach’s message was that of this day, this hour, this minute, this moment and to live fully from this moment!!! Do not hesitate to experience life…the time will never be right! The time is never going to be right for me to ask a girl out, the time will never be right to buy a car, the time will never be right to ask for a promotion, the time will never be right…because the only right time is always NOW! Now is the time for honesty, Now is the time for kindness, Now is the time for leaping, Now is the time for acting, Now is the time for singing, and dancing, and…and…and…and…and for Love! It is right Now! Zach reminded me of that!

I am so grateful to Zach and for sharing his journey. I am so grateful for all my brothers and sisters who have returned Home and yet continue to guide me so that I may fulfill OUR purpose. I am so grateful for those of you who read these and find Your Truth amidst them. I am grateful for this moment Now…I am grateful because I’ve once again remembered how to LIVE through the inspiration of another. I’ve remembered what truly being the Light looks like! Thank you Zach…thank you so much for your Light, for your beauty, and for your Love!

With ALL My Love,
Zach IAM

 

Here is Zach’s story:

Claim Your Divine Right…Now

Uncategorized

Hello my Lovelies,

I am sitting here looking out the window, enjoying the birds fly around, tasting the delicious flavor of my weekly vegan burrito, and my attention is brought to my dear little brother,Trevor, who I just went to see at the hospital and who is still there unable to talk, exhausted, with his head perched upon his hands, a pose I know all too well from my past.

As I sit here Divinity whispers in my ear, “You are are here now my child, you can taste, you can see, you can walk, you are strong, you are sharing OUR message.”

I write this to ask you where you are? While you are eating are you truly eating or is your mind among your worries? While you are walking are you feeling the earth below your feet or are you concerned with your tasks that lay ahead? While you are speaking with a friend or lover are you experiencing them in their brand new presence or are you frustrated about your work day and how difficult it was 5 hours ago?

I ask these questions because these moments remind me that I am here now, for all the times I should have died and for all the reasons I should be dead, I am here now. YOU are here now. You have overcome obstacles greater than you ever realized that you could climb over. Yet with all the Power that we know we truly are, we deny it.

We question our strength and wherewithal, and succumb to the illusory fears we have been told to accept. Do not question your Power, do not question your Divinity, listen to the Voice-without-sound and remember who you are.

Remember that although it may seem hard you are always supported by Spirit. That even though it may be difficult it could always be worse. You could be forced to reside in a hospital where you can barely lift your head. You are here now free to experience the world, free to experience the whole Universe exactly as you choose.

Be grateful for the gift of this present moment. Be grateful for the ability to smile and dance. Be grateful for the ability to read this and to do whatever it is you so choose. And as you feel that gratitude and Power, be strong enough to act with it filling your heart!

Claim your right as an extension of God to experience the totality of life. Claim your right to spread Love everywhere and to recognize Divinity within every form! Claim your right to BE Happiness, to BE Truth, to BE Love. Claim your right to be the gift to the world that you truly are! Do not just exist my friends, Live Life with a heart full of Presence and gratitude!

With All My Love,
Zach IAM

What Are You Running From?

Uncategorized

Hello My Lovelies,

I have a simple question to ask those reading this…WHAT ARE YOU RUNNING FROM?

Honestly, this is a question for my more “spiritual” friends, but what are you running from? No, actually this is a question for anyone who is now reading this…what are you running from? I see it so often…I want happiness, I want peace, I want a family, I want a loving relationship, I want to be in the 5th dimensional experience, but in the midst of that beauty-full glorious asking I really hear…I don’t want to be sad anymore, I don’t want to be stressed anymore, I am tired of being single, I am tired of being treated like dirt, I am tired of the 3rd dimension.

Now these things are completely fine and well, this reality is made to inspire wanting from all of us, wanting so that we may express the beauty-full bounty that is waiting for us to claim is ours…but why do you keep running?

Why are you tired of this 3rd dimension? Why are you tired of being single? Why are you tired of being unhappy? Do you ever ask yourself that question or do you just constantly avoid finding those answers? Do you ever wonder that possibly you are creating that very thing which you are running from? Do you ever wonder if these contrasting experiences are all gifts so that you may become stronger spiritually and in your faith that you are Spirit?

Many people say, I couldn’t possibly have manifested this dis-ease, I could possibly have manifested this car accident, I couldn’t possibly have manifested me hurting my foot, but in all truth you did! You are the creator of your life! No one else has any power over you. The universe simply responds to what you are asking for spiritually. If you are craving excitement, the universe will respond. If you are craving passion, the universe will respond. If you are craving joy, the universe will respond. However, it all depends on the perception you have of the circumstances you are given. It all depends on you!

Now back to the topic, these circumstances are not to be avoided. They are gifts in the form of contrast. In finding yourself unhappy, you can turn your attention towards that which makes you happy. In finding yourself lonely, you can turn your attention towards your image of your perfect relationship.

You will not out-run a tiger, it will always catch you and eventually kill and eat you. Instead, turn  towards the tiger, treat it with Love, with unwavering faith that Spirit will protect you, pet the tiger, give it a few kisses, and then continue on your journey. Do you see?

Recognize that you chose, as a spiritual entity, to embody YOUR body and experience this reality. This was not forced upon you! Nobody held your arm and said, “You will go to earth and you will suffer because that is how it is!” Doesn’t that sound silly?! An omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient being would do that? I don’t know about you but that may be the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard.

You are an extension of God! You are a finger on the hand of God. You came with the intent to experience the contrast of life! To experience the full spectrum of human emotion! You came with the intent to remember that you are a gloriously Divine extension of Source with all the Power that Source possesses! You came with the intent to get dirty and nasty and gritty and cry and laugh and freaky and weird and shake shit up and dance in the rain and….AND JUST TO GET REAL FREAKY NAUGHTY!!! You did not come to play it safe! The lies you were taught to believe about this “one life and that’s all you get” non-sense couldn’t be farther from the truth! You are Eternal! You are Light! You are God!

There is nothing humble about insulting your soul and making yourself believe you’re a sinner! There’s nothing humble about saying, “Oh I’m only human.” Damn right you’re human! You are an extension of the One! The One that is me, the One that is You, the One that is the tree, the dog, the tiger, the rose, the leaf, the cell, the molecule, the atom, You are that which is All-That-Is!!!

So now that you remember who you are, also remember that you didn’t come here to get somewhere else! You came here to experience the totality of life! You came here to have your heart-broken, crushed, stomped on, and torn apart, only to have it mended again by the recognition that it could never be broken, crushed, stomped on, or torn apart, that You have the power to BE Love, that you ARE Love! You didn’t come here to just be happy, you came to get rowdy, scared, fear-full, and depressed, only to remember that those were all illusions, that none of those existed for in your mind. You came to remember that You…Are…Love. You…Are…Happiness. You…Are…Joy.

So remember my brothers and sisters! Remember how bright and Power-full you are! Remember that is not about getting from here to there…because you are wherever you say you are. You are already where you want to be! You need not run from anything, because in running from it you are actually running to it. Find your Presence Now! Recognize that the happiness you seek is already yours! Recognize that the peace you seek is you! Recognize that the relationship you desire is here now! Recognize that your dream lover is already embracing you with their lips. Recognize that it is all now. All that you wish to experience is yours now, it always has been, waiting for you to simply realize it.

“A man once asked Buddha, ‘Buddha, I want more happiness. How do I attain more happiness.’ The Buddha looked at the man lovingly, ‘First remove ‘I’ that is ego, then remove ‘want’ that is craving, and you are left with happiness.”

With All My Love,

Do You Believe Zach?

Uncategorized

(Message from Zach:

I do not look at myself as a channel, although I have had experiences as being a channel. However, tonight I experienced something very power-full to say the least and wanted to share what I received.)

 

Do you truly believe in the deepest space of your mind that you are the only creator in your reality? Do you truly believe in the deepest space of your Self that your thoughts are the literal “stuff” that determines the reality that you live in? Do you truly believe, without the shadow of a doubt that you are God incarnate to manifest your desires and embody the Light that is your very inheritance as a human being, as a Son of God? You do don’t you?

But somewhere you lose faith. Somewhere within you you question whether you are as Power-full as you believe in your deepest heart. Somewhere within you your ego reminds you that you are separate, that you are somehow separate from all beings and God. This is a lie dear Zach.

You are truly the Divine Light of God. You are a shining star amongst Her Children and you have come forth to embody Love. You are our brother and we Love you so dearly.

You are experiencing a final battle before your True awakening, the battle between your ego and your highest and deepest knowing. You are at the final battle of truly, fully, deeply, consciously recognizing and knowing that you are the Son of God, that ALL beings are the sons and daughters of God. On a subconscious level you are still deterred by what you have come to know based upon what you were taught. You are now at a place within your life experience and soul expansion that you are realizing how magnificent you truly are! How beloved you are by the Mother/Father for the work you have taken upon yourself in this life.

You are confused right now, battling between recognizing your true Divinity, and letting go of the old patterns and beliefs that held you separate from us, your brothers and sisters, as well as living your deepest purpose. You are confused because somewhere within you you KNOW without a shadow of a doubt that you are an extension of Source, and you have unlimited Power. You have the literal Power to create worlds through your thoughts.

You have been journeying tirelessly and we are grateful for your persistence. You are on the eve of a Great Awakening within yourself, and soon you will look back and realize how silly it was to have ever doubted your deepest knowing.

You truly are the creator of your own reality. Through your thoughts, and allowing yourself to live in the space of having already acquired all you desire, you are truly living and acting in accordance with the Law of Expression. Enjoy these moments for these are showing you the steps that you are climbing. When you come to the awareness that you are not living as you see yourself living, you bring yourself into union with where your Higher Self has already been waiting.

Enjoy these moments of questioning Zach. These moments show you how far you have come and that there is still work to be done! You are doing a wonder-full job and we applaud you. Remember to shine your Light as brightly as you can, to see that in all others as well, and to walk as Jesus walked, to walk as Buddha walked, to walk as each of the great Masters before you have walked. It is your life’s mission to BE the Light in this world and you have come to a major tipping point in that journey! We Love you. We thank you. We are watching and guiding you. We are you.

With our deepest Love,
Masters

Message To All The Vegans

Uncategorized

Hello My Lovelies,

I am a vegan.

I have NOT been a vegan all my life. Since the age of 15, I have played with many lifestyles including raw vegan (about 4 times), paleo, vegetarian, and now I enjoy being a vegan. I have also ate like garbage. I ate candy every day until I was 14 and diagnosed with cancer. At 15 I learned what foods actually did to my body and went raw. However, no lifestyle “stuck” for me until now.

I consider myself a 50% raw vegan. As I have come to realize, my body temple is made of the earth and the stars, and so by putting nutrition in my temple that is picked directly from the earth, my temple feels stronger and more energetic. AT THIS POINT IN TIME, 50% raw vegan works for me physically, mentally, and spiritually.

What I’d like to tell all my vegan friends is…you weren’t always vegan!!!! 🙂 I was not always a vegan! I did not always have the desire to be vegan nor did my body thrive from being vegan at times! What this leads into is…let go of judging others based on their nutritional preferences!

All of my vegan friends say, “Well when you eat meat you are taking a life! You are making our animal brothers and sisters suffer!” And as much as I agree with those statements, YOU did not always possess that outlook. You did not always understand what was happening at slaughter houses. You did not always understand how much the animals were suffering. I say this because the lack of compassion vegans have for meat-eaters is what is causing many people to continue to eat meat! What you resist persists!

As a vegan, you have come to a point in the evolution of your soul that hurting another being no longer is justified so that you can eat it…I understand that. But to force another to be where you are just because you are there, is taking away from the other person’s soul expansion. Do you see that? You can’t force a meat-eater to stop eating meat, just like you can’t force a baby to walk. People must make a conscious decision to change and then take action to make that change. By having a long-haired, hemp-wearing person yell at them because they eat meat does not help them understand WHY it may be beneficial to go vegan. Nor is it a very positive example of what being vegan is about.

Also, how do you KNOW without a question of a doubt that veganism is right for everybody? How do you KNOW that is what the Creator wants at this time?! All you know is what is right for YOU at this time! You don’t know that each time an animal is killed their soul expands based upon the suffering they experienced and can reincarnate into a more peace-full form. You are getting lost in the physical and not recognizing that there is so much more expansion that is going on spiritually.

It is wonder-full that many vegans want to save the animals lives so that they can live a joyous life. It is wonder-full that so many vegans do their part to help the environment. It is wonder-full that so many vegans can evolve spiritually by not being part of the “meat-industrial complex.” 😉 But it is also important to remember that some people, based on where they are, need meat to sustain their forms. Their bodies crave meat because that is where they are vibrating spiritually. So maybe instead of condemning them, teach them to eat with presence so that they honor the Spirit of the animal and give thanks to the Spirit for sustenance.

Be compassionate my friends. The real shift in Consciousness is that from the ego to Unity. “Those meat-eaters” are every bit your brothers and sisters as the animals. “Those meat-eaters” are YOU! We are all extensions of the One Soul!!! In condemning “them” you condemn yourself…in Loving “them” you Love yourself.

“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” ~Jesus

All My Love,
Zach IAM

May The Rain…

Uncategorized
May the rain wash away all your fears and sorrows,
Let it cleanse all the old patterns of thoughts and beliefs that kept you from recognizing your Divinity,
May the fresh water bring in the fruits of Joy and Love,
And may you swim in the Lake of your Eternal Presence.

How Much Are You Worth?

Uncategorized

Hello my Lovelies,

As a fitness trainer it becomes quite comedic, and also sad, at the excuses I hear for not either wanting to exercise, eat healthy, or simply even purchase a gym membership. It seems that society and all it’s entertainment tools have really caused the majority of humanity to become a lazy, uneducated, lazy, lazy, did I say lazy? culture.

As most of you who read these posts know that I do my best to always see the larger picture, but I hope that those of you who read this take this into consideration.

My first and most important question is, “How much are you worth?” Honestly…how much do you feel you and your body are worth? $50? $1,000? $1,000,000? Priceless? I ask this because I hear all the time, “Gyms are just so expensive!…Personal Training is just so expensive!!…Eating healthy is just so expensive and I don’t like cooking!!!” And my question to you is…”Well, are you and your body worth being expensive or are you and your body not worth much?”

This body that you have, this vessel, will be the vessel you carry with you forward into the rest of this life experience. The cells in your body will replicate daily. The food that you ingest will become those new cells. The daily exercise you partake in will make those cells become either lazy and weak or vibrant and strong. Those cells not only will be made from the food you consume, but the old cells will also be affected either beneficially or not so benefically by the food you consume.

Another question I’d like to ask is, “Do you know which foods allow your cells to be affected beneficially? Do you know what type of exercises and programming will allow your body to be affected beneficially?” If you do, congratulations, you’re in the 5% of people that actually LIKE their vessels. If you don’t but heard that a new herb will help you lose those 25 lbs instead of changing how you live your life, then do you boo boo.

If I sound cynical, then this message is coming across correctly. 😉 If you get sick where do you typically go? If your car breaks down where do you typically go? If you need your teeth cleaned where do you typically go? Do you get my point? 😉

Exercise comes in all forms! Dancing, yoga, basketball, soccer, football, crossfit, weight lifting, running, martial arts, playing tag, jumping on the jungle gym, so many modalities to be active! Why are there gyms? Because majority of the time those gyms have a variety of those modalities to choose from. But is $25/month too much to spend so that you can start moving your body again, and use it to experience life?

Is a few hundred dollars per month too expensive if the tools you will learn will help you live a more proficient life? Think about it? Truly think about it? “Is $500 worth gaining the knowledge I need so that I can help my body become the beauty-full vessel I’ve always wanted? I am worth $500 when the information I learn will allow me to live a fuller, more enjoyable, care-free life? Or will I just keep moseying around like I have been for the past 15 years being unhappy, sad, depressed, afraid of life, feeling gross in my vessel?”

Truly think about those questions! HOW MUCH ARE YOU WORTH?! If you knew that you were here in this Earth experience to run around, be playful, live WITH Nature, jump, dance, sing, frolic, sprint, fall down, roll around, bump your knee, do the splits, do a somersault, climb the trees, chase your beauty-full animal friends, wrestle, spin around, just all the amazing crazyily beauty-full experiences of being human, would $500 be worth doing those things again?

I know that you are priceless! I know that each and every one of you has not one dollar sign upon you because of Who You Are, Spirit! But your TV has caused you to forget that! Your commercials have caused you to forget how good eating from the earth feels! Your bibles and books have said you need to grow up, when you were BORN to play!! Your doctors have said, “It’s just part of getting old!” When deep within you you know that you are forever Eternal! That you are first and foremost a child of Source, yes…a CHILD! Not an adult of God! Not a grown-up of Source! A child!

In the eyes of the Creator you are forever priceless! The question is…are you willing to look at yourself as priceless? Are you willing to say, “Oh $25/month to go and play with some toys everyday so that I am living happily, of course!” Ask yourself how much you’re worth…when you find that number multiply it by Divine and you’ll have your answer!

I wish you all well so that you live your lives full of health and with the reminder of why you are here!! Live life like a game and no matter what the outcome, it will always have been worth it!!

All My Love,
Zach IAM

BE 100%

Uncategorized

Hello My Lovelies,

As I was driving home just now I noticed a bumper sticker on the car in front of me that said, “Namaste.” For those who are unsure what namaste means, basically put it means, “The Divine within me recognizes the Divine within you.” As I drove past the car I looked at the driver, I immediately noticed she was smoking a cigarette to which she then took a drink of a pepsi. I thought to myself, “How ironic. This woman has a sticker that says how she not only recognizes the Divine within you but also herself, and yet she is poisoning her body temple.”

I am in no way aiming to be judgemental, it was simply God reminding me to BE 100%. What I mean by being 100% is living true to the thoughts we think, the words we speak, and the actions we take. To be living life with my thoughts, words, and actions all in harmony. It also can mean to enter fully into each moment. To be 100% present living NOW, the only moment we will ever have.

In order to live a joy-full, purpose-full life we must be 100% with what we think, say, and do. For instance, seeing as I am a personal trainer, I know in my heart and from all the research ever, that vegetables and fruits are beneficial for my body temple. I then counsel my clients to eat fruits and veggies, but then do not eat them myself. I am not being 100% am I? I am disregarding the knowledge I know in my heart is correct. Another example would be for me to tell somebody to be kind and express Love and then go out and judge somebody for smoking a cigarette and drinking a pepsi 😉

Not only does this cause others to lose respect for us because we are not practicing what we preach, but more importantly we feel guilty because we override what we feel and know is right in our hearts.

I’ve never read the Four Agreements, but from what I know about it, I feel this post goes along the same lines. When we are speaking and acting from our deepest Truth, from the wisdom that resides within all of us, we feel alive. When we live in accordance with our deepest Truth, life is purpose-full! Our minds are no longer in battle with our hearts, our hearts now directs where our minds will go. We gain awareness of if a thought is in harmony with our deepest Truth or in dis-harmony.

So ultimately what I want to say to you, and in doing so, to myself, is BE 100%. Why waste time not enveloped in this present moment? You only have right now to express your gifts! And now…and now…and now! Have you read these words with full presence or have you been dazing off thinking of something while your subconscious scanned these words? BE 100%! Speak the words of your heart even if they might upset others. Don’t force others to listen, nor force your opinion, but speak with an open heart full of Love. Act with your deepest integrity! When you drink your water…DRINK YOUR WATER!! That is truly the first and last sip of water you will ever has as the individual you are NOW!

We are ever-changing, Divine incarnations of Love! Experience this world NOW because it will never be the same. BE 100% in this moment, BE 100% at a business meeting, BE 100% in conversations with a friend, BE 100% while taking a walk, BE 100% in the embrace of your child, BE 100% as you cry hysterically, BE 100% in the ocean of a strawberry, BE 100% when you dance in the ecstasy of sex, BE 100% because if you’re not life will keep passing you by. BE in life. BE in Love. BE here now!

And while you are here, live from your deepest heart. Give your deepest gifts to the world. Present them on the Divine platter of your words, actions, and through your Presence. BE 100% with your life!

All My Love,

Mind-Full or Mind-Empty?

Uncategorized

Hello my Lovelies,

As I’m sitting here this little wonder popped into my awareness…if we are truly BEing, if we are truly present, do we want to be mind-full or do we want to be mind-empty?

If your mind is full do you not feel cluttered? Do you not feel scattered over what is happening in your mind? Do you not feel bombarded? Contrastingly, what happens when our mind is empty? Do we not feel peace-full? Do we not feel relaxed, trusting, faith-full?

When we meditate what is the focus? Is it not to simply let go and BE present? To empty our minds and reside in the Silence that is Source? Would we not then call this mind-empty? 🙂

A man once asked Buddha, “When you attained enlightenment what did you gain?” Buddha responded, “I gained nothing but lost everything.” This statement allows us to infer that emptiness of mind can allow us to recognize the Divinity within. If we are always stuck looking at the surface of the water, and the waves that are bombarding the surface, and never take the time to see the vast stillness below the surface, how can we ever find the peace of the deep stillness?

I thought this was a fun idea and wonder that came into my awareness and hope that what is written here can get you to ask the same quest-ions.

All My Love,
