Love the Process of Ascension

Each of us is on a journey, and the journey never ends.  We can choose to love the journey, be indifferent, resist, enjoy, or worry about it.  We control the journey and how we feel about it.  Why not love the ride?  Enjoy the views, the vistas, the slow and the fast, the hills and the bumps, the twists and the turns, the stop lights and the green lights, the other drivers.

Notice how you experience your day.  When all is going well, do you just expect it?  Are you thankful for the flow?  Notice how you respond when you hit what appears to be a snag.  How do you feel?

What happens to you when you are driving down the road and there is road construction?  Do you think, “oh, no, I’m going to be late.” And then proceed to focus on how late you’re going to be, feeling bad each second?  Or do you know that you will arrive in divine timing?

I used to worry about being late and keeping someone waiting for me.  I live pretty far out in the country, and there is so much terrain I cover—anything can happen on the journey.  When I get in the car, I ask that I arrive in perfect timing.  I thank my car for getting me there safely, and I am thankful for everything I experience on my way.  Most of the time, my journey speeds by because I am enjoying it so much.  Sometimes, though, the train is crossing or road construction slows the flow.  Great, I think.  Thank you for slowing me down or giving me this time to breathe or enjoy the view. I know I will arrive in divine timing, so I can relax and enjoy whatever it is.  I often use this gift of time to breathe an enjoy the view.  I like to look around the area and notice what is going on in nature and look up at the the sky.  Noticing what’s beautiful or interesting brings joy to my day.  When I arrive, it’s always perfect timing.  I arrive happy, and so whoever I’m meeting is happy to see me.

Talking about the driving journey is just a metaphor for the journey of life.  Where are you in your life journey?  How do you feel about your journey?  It’s important to note how you feel.  What you feel about the journey reveals what’s inside of you.

If you are happy when you think of your life journey, fantastic!  Are you sharing your joy with others?  Perhaps your life could inspire others to find the joy in their own lives.  Perhaps you can share the joy with each other. I love it when others share something wonderful about their lives with me.  I feel their joy—its abundance evokes joy in me. Anytime we share our joy with others, the feeling is exponentialized in the universe.

What do you want to feel?  If it’s exactly what you want to feel right now, that’s awesome.  Share that abundance with someone else.  If it’s not, can you focus on what you’d like to feel?  Each day, simply focusing on the feeling you would like to create in your life can change the journey for you.  Once you have the feeling, sync with the vibration of it.  If you would like more fun in your life, just feel what fun feels like.  Maybe you can remember a time you were having fun, and then you can connect with what fun felt like in your body. Sync with that feeling as often as you can.  All you have to do is imagine fun and feel it.  Consider when you sit up in bed first thing in the morning, sync with it and ask that the feeling and vibration be with you all day.  What will begin to happen is that as you sync to the vibration of fun, you will attract fun.  When fun shows up, thank it.  Appreciate it.  Fun will come into your life, and as it does, you will be living the fun you wanted to create.

Recently, a client shared that he wasn’t enjoying his job.  When I asked him what he wasn’t enjoying, he mentioned a few things, but mostly what he focused on was the feeling inside of himself.  I asked him if he felt like there was some other job that he would like better.  He didn’t know.  I asked him if he thought with his educational background and experience if he could find something that would make him feel better.  He didn’t know.  I asked him if he wanted to fall in love with his job again.  He said he didn’t know how.  I encouraged him to find the things he loved in his job.  Really notice them.  Thank them.  Feel appreciation for each thing.  Even if he had to start small with I love the temperature of my office.  I love that my paycheck is deposited like clockwork.  I love how short my drive to work is.  I love that I live in a place that has a climate that makes me feel good.  Whatever it was.  I suggested that if for just a week he focused on the things that he liked, he might feel better about his job.  A week later, he felt completely differently.  He was happy again.  He noticed that as he focused on the little things, more that he appreciated became visible.

I believe what happened for him was that as he focused on what he liked, the vibration of happiness became stronger in him.  As the vibration of happiness strengthened, he attracted and was attracted to more of his job that brought him joy.  As he focused on what he liked, more of what he liked came to him.  As more of what he liked was in his experience, less of what he didn’t like was in his experience.

What my client also realized was that he chose his points of focus.  He created his happiness.  As he realized this, he also realized that he had created the other experiences too.  He had created the unhappiness, his dissatisfaction.  It’s true.  He did.  We all do.  In focusing on what he wanted . . . which was to like his job . . . all he had to do was sync with the vibration of liking.

I am working with another client who wants to create a new job for herself.  She was miserable in her job.  So, we started working on what her new job would feel like, what parts of herself would shine and be appreciated in her new job.  She is really clear.  What’s happened has been pretty magical.  As she focused on what she wanted to feel like in her new job, she started to feel this vibration in her current job.  She still wants a new job and is actively creating it, yet what’s great is that while she knows her current job isn’t the best fit, she’s at least enjoying her time there. What’s also great is that as she looks for the new job, she’s vibrating what she wants and bringing these new vibrations of happiness and clarity to her job search, which will help her sync with the company and position that will be her match. Now she’s having fun in the process and feeling empowered.

Many say, everything happens for a reason, and they believe it. Even if they don’t know what the reason is, they have faith that they are better for it.  I believe the reason is inside of you.  The reason you find inside of yourself.  That reason vibrates in you.

You know what’s inside of you.  If you read this and you think, I don’t always know what I’m feeling inside.  I understand.  We often go through periods of change or transition when we don’t exactly know.  But we can.  Close your eyes and ask your body, what do you feel right now? Perhaps it’s confusion.  That’s a start.  If that’s not what you want to feel, then ask yourself what you do want, and refocus on the feeling and vibration of it.

The thing is, no matter what you create right now, you’ll want to create something else along the way.  That’s what life is all about.  The journey. The process.

Sometimes, the speed bump, the road construction, the accident in the road allows the truth of your feelings to be revealed.  Sometimes, a new perception uncovered.  Understanding the vibration of whatever you feel as you experience your journey is your truth.  Right in that moment. You are the creative mastermind of you.

Even when we feel happy, we can want to feel something new too.  Variety and creating is exciting to many.

Whatever your motivation, watch how as you sync with the vibration of what you want, the feeling manifests in your thoughts and experiences as it becomes your reality. It might not look like what you envisioned, but it will feel like what is inside of you.  Understand the magic of creating what you want to feel.  Why not love the ride–whatever it is?  Love the process, the journey, of you.  Love the feeling of you.

Cocreating: Exponential Energy

I have been busy and having so much fun cocreating and want to share a few experiences that have inspired me this week.

John and I hosted a workshop “Dream A Dream” last weekend, and the group was amazing.  What I watched unfold was the miracle of cocreating with others who are courageous and loving.  At the beginning of the workshop, we all briefly stated what we wanted to manifest this year.  One participant stated, “I want to create space in my life.”  After we grounded and talked about our beliefs about our goals, this participant courageously declared that she wanted to change her goal to what she really wanted, which was to be in a loving relationship with a man.  I felt the love in the other participants’ hearts flow to her as she expressed her true heart’s desire.  Then, a shift in the whole workshop occurred.  Other were empowered to clarify and more specifically declare their own goals.  As the participants worked through their restatements, I could feel their individual, the group, and the room’s vibration shift.  Then in 30 minutes, each person created an amazing vision board.  When each person shared their vision through their descriptions and their vision boards at the end of the workshop, there was so much love and respect flowing–for self, for others, and for the group.  As Gregg Braden notes: “Through the power of consciously focusing on the things that we create in our imagination, we give them the ‘nudge’ that brings them trough the barrier from the unreal to real.”  What do you want to bring to reality this year?

I am working with a client who wants to increase her business at her clinic.  We cocreated with the energy of the clinic.  After phase one of the work, the client emailed me to let me know that the energy in her space had complete changed—odd smells were gone, the light had changed, and best of all, her phone was ringing with clients calling to book sessions.  I am especially in awe of and in a complete state of gratitude for this experience as this client lives in Europe, we have never met—have had very little communication–and I have no clue what her physical space looks like or where it is.

I have a client who is an author who wanted her specific books to be in Amazon’s top 100 in her genre.  After we cocreated with the energy of her books, they were all in the top 100 in days.  Imagine Snoopy dancing.  That’s me.  (And probably her!) I so love it when others achieve their dreams.

I am finding that anytime I join in love with someone else to send love to someone or something, the energy is exponentialized.

Here’s an example.

I was talking to my son on the phone.  He was having a tough day.  Our phone call abruptly closed when he said, “Mom, I’ll call you back.”  The minute we hung up, I texted three friends I can count on to join with me in love.  My text was simple.  Please join with me in sending T love to the extent it is for his perfect and highest good.  Within seconds, I got responses.  “I’m on it.”  “Done!”  Within fifteen minutes, my son called back to report that he was fine, that everything had worked out beautifully, magically, better than he could have ever expected.

Notice something.  I did not ruminate over what was wrong or what needed fixing.  I focused on what I wanted—my son to feel the love and support of the universe. I called in support—cocreators in love.  We just sent our love to him for his highest good.  Whatever that was.  We were willing to allow the universe to handle the situation.  And it did.  Better than we ever could have even imagined.

I so appreciate the people in my life who I can ask, can you join with me in love?  We are so inspired by the beauty, joy and power of what happens when we send love together.  I so appreciate working with clients who are ready to cocreate with love, to consciously energize their lives, their creations with love.

In Peace and Love, Simone

Receive and Give Love: Breathe In and Out

When you wake up in the morning, what is the first thing you do?

Where are your thoughts?  Where your thoughts are as you wake up indicate in what you invest your energy, where you place your love.  If you are thinking about what you want in your day, fantastic.  If you are thinking about other people, work, what needs to be done, etc, consider how focusing on yourself for a few moments each morning can shift your whole day.

When you wake up, ask yourself “What is MY intention for this day?”  Consider how you want to feel for the day or what you would like to achieve.  Your intention may be as simple as:

  • I intend to be happy with myself all day no matter what happens.
  • I intend to be calm today.
  • I intend to be peaceful.
  • I intend to flow with each moment of the day.
  • I intend to recognize that I am doing the best I can in each moment.

What would bring you the most joy?  Intend it.

Or, if you want to accomplish something, intend that.

  • I intend to feel joy in my accomplishment as I work on X project today.
  • I intend to have fun with everything I do today.
  • I intend to mow the grass and finish half of my to-do list and then do something fun.
  • I intend to exercise today.
  • I intend to be conscious about what I am focusing on today.  I intend to focus on the positive.

Intending what you want for yourself equates to loving yourself enough to prioritize your desires. When you place your feet on the floor, state your intention out loud.  Own it.  In doing so, you set the vibrational tone of your day, you send the message “what I want matters today.  I am a priority.”

As you go through your day, pay attention to how you respond to others.  Do you receive? Deflect?  Reject?  By understanding how you respond to others, you gain insight to your ability to receive. When someone says “thank you” to you, how do you respond?  “You’re welcome.”  “No, thank you.”  “I didn’t do anything, really.  It was <the team, all your work, insert some other reply.>”  “No need to thank me.”  Your answers indicate your receptivity.

You signal I accept/allow/receive when you respond with “You’re welcome” or by returning a smile.  Deflecting or rejecting what others give you with comments like “No.  It’s you who deserves thanks” or “It was nothing” or “I didn’t do anything” deflects the gratitude given and signals you are unable to receive.

If someone offers to help you, from holding a door open to helping with some task or making your day easier in some way, do you accept the gesture?  Do you respond with a “thank you?”  Do you decline with responses like “I’ve got it” or “No need” or “It’s nothing”?  Your response reveals your love story.

Really pay attention to how you respond.  Focus on accepting “thank yous.” A simple “you’re welcome” is all that is needed to shift your energy to receiving.  Notice how the person who offered gratitude responds to your acceptance.  Notice who around you accepts gratitude all of the time, some of the time, or none of the time and how others engage with these responses.

Accepting the gratitude, kindness or help of others is an indicator that you are receiving not only gratitude and love but abundance from the universe.  Consciously intend to accept kindness, gratitude and love from others—consciously receive. Notice if you accept easily and effortforlessly or if you have to work at it.  Notice how receiving feels to you.

Think about how easily and joyfully people who are in love give and receive love.  They delight in both giving and receiving. Accepting gratitude, kindness, and love is essential to falling in love with you. Giving and receiving is like breathing in and out.  Breathing is the balanced flow of intake and output.  Receiving kindness, gratitude, or any kind of love, is just as vital as giving it. Receiving is one way to experience loving yourself.

I’d love to hear how you allow yourself to receive love this week and what you noticed along the way.

Fall In Love

When was the last time you heard someone say something like I am so in love with   . . ..?  I’m so in love with <insert name>.  He brings out the best in me.  I’m so in love with her.  She makes me feel like the man/woman I’m supposed to be.  I am so in love with this house.  It’s so inviting.  I love being in it–the view is amazing. I feel so comfortable.  I love that place!  Let’s go there!

How did you feel when you listen to someone gush about loving?

When others are filled with love, with abundance, with joy, with magic, how does it feel to be around them?  Do you enjoy it?  Is the love they feel infectious? Is it uncomfortable?  Annoying?

What we feel when we are in the presence of love is a reflection of the love we feel in and for ourselves.

I propose that it’s time to fall in love with yourself.  That’s right.  There is nothing better for wellbeing, balance, harmony, joy, or peace than self love . . . falling in love with yourself.  When we love ourselves, we take care of ourselves.  Have fun with ourselves.  Enjoy ourselves.  Are happy with ourselves.

What I’m proposing may seem exciting, or at least interesting to some, and scary to uncomfortable to others.  Isn’t it exciting, or at least interesting, to experience something new . . .  some new feeling?  Think about the last time you fell in love with something.  How’d it feel?  Easy?  Joyful?  Were you anxious at times?  Giddy at others?  Sure?  Unsure?  Excited to see what unfolded?  Eager for the next step?  Falling in love often takes us through a range of emotions. . . . What do you remember feeling?

Consider looking in the mirror and saying, I love you.  I love myself.

When you try it, how does it feel?  Do you want to turn away quickly?  Or are you comfortable with looking at yourself?

I started dancing when I was four years old.  Being short, I was always on the end of the line where there was no mirror.  If I looked slightly to my left, I saw the other girls in the mirror.  Later when classes were smaller and I was in a duet or trio, I was right in front of the mirror.  It was hard for me to look at myself.  I often watched the other girls or looked away, so I didn’t lose focus on the dance.  When I watched myself in the mirror, I saw all of my flaws and was very uncomfortable.  It was uncomfortable for me to look in any mirror.

How do you feel when you look in the mirror?  What goes through your mind?  What do you say to yourself?  What if you just changed the script?  What would happen if we all changed our scripts?

What would the world be like if everyone was taught to say, feel, and know:  “I love my self.  I am in love with myself.  I love loving myself.  Loving myself brings me joy.  Makes me happy.  Makes me feel . . . .  Is peaceful.  Is . . . . .

What will happen if you love yourself?  What will change for you?

I invite you to sign up for my blog and join me on a journey of love this fall.  Let’s explore falling in love with ourselves and see where that takes us.  It’s going to be an exciting journey.

Over the next week, ask:

  • Am I ready to fall in love with myself?
    • If you feel uncomfortable with that question, ask:   What do I fear?
      • Acknowledge whatever comes up.  Don’t be afraid to allow whatever you feel.  Accepting your fears is accepting yourself.  Rejecting your fears is rejecting a part of yourself.  If you can accept what you feel, you can love yourself.
      • What in the world could be more important than loving myself?
      • Am I ready to invest in my single-most valuable asset–me?

Let’s fall in love this fall.  With you.
