You Can Heal Your Life

Louise Hay you can Heal your life.

Louise Hay you can Heal your life.

I have written about this movie, “you can Heal your life” previously on my site. I watched the interview portion of the dvd with Louise Hay again tonight. I was looking to gain some additional insight for my own life. As I listened I was touched over and over by her words and her inspiring thoughts. I replayed the interview about four times so that I could get each of these quotes. Her words and her thoughts are so deeply moving and inspiring that I wanted to share them here on my web site.

Our Perception of Security

Security is a perception. We are never completely safe, our situations just seem safe. We bask in the contentment of seeming safety. It’s only when disaster strikes, jobs are lost, finances are compromised or our health is jeapordized that we realize what felt safe was simply a perception. Our real security comes from within, in feeling and trusting the spirit of God in our life. It’s God’s prescence in our life that brings a true sense of feeling secure.

The Energy of Releasing Things

Lately I have spent a lot of time in conversation with a friend who is downsizing. They have spent the last couple years downsizing in stages. First they sold their house in Arizona and packed the belongings they wanted to keep in military storage. Next everything that they didn’t want to keep was either sold or donated. I know that they donated jeep loads of stuff, day after day. It was quite a process; we talked often as she sorted and packed. I also visited at one point during their transition. Eventualy they were left with just the things that fit in two large travel back packs and what they were taking across country to their family.

Creating a Sense of Security When Jobs Feel Insecure

Losing our sense of security does a couple of things, it makes us panic and it makes us move in a different direction. It may not be a direction we wanted to go in, but reality has a way of saying, move your ass. Not every job can be the dream job, especially not in this economy. What a new job might be is a start in a new direction. Example; when my boyfriend Rob became a Firefighter/Paramedic it meant taking a short term pay cut from his previous career. As a Firefighter/Paramedic he’d found the calling he loved, doing work that he loves, and today with experience he makes more money than he was making in his previous field. Granted he chose to switch careers, he wasn’t forced into the situation by job cuts like others may be today. Yet the end result can be the same, short term pay cut, long term more security as well as a career you may find you love even more deeply.

A new direction can be a blessing in disguise, once you get past the initial shock and fear. I’ve always wanted to be a writer, and I’d been writing on nights and weekends for about a year when my mother got sick. I had even put together the first draft of my manuscript and sent it to my mom a month before she became ill. I’d published a few freelance pieces but with my mother’s death came a deep desire to publish my book. It meant writing on nights and weekeneds while I taught. It meant spending many vacations and weekends typing and editing over a period of several years. At times it felt endlessly painful and difficult, due to the emotional nature of the book I was writing; on healing relationships and grief.

The reality is dreams require time, patience and alot of hard work, mine certainly has. Sometimes it means working for very little while we gain the experience and knowledge we need in our new field and working another job to pay the bills. In my life the grief, my losses and the shift I’ve experienced have propelled me to this place where I’m now able and capable of helping others. I have healed; I have transformed my life through writing, therapy, keeping my faith close and simply walking through the pain when I truly thought it would kill me. It wasn’t my choice of a way to begin a new career, but today I’m happier and more peaceful than I’ve ever been. I see writing and helping other’s heal as my life’s work.

My Gratitude Realization

Indian Shores Beach Gratitude By: Lisa Overman

The last weeks I’ve felt drawn to write about gratitude and how gratitude impacts our life and our experiences. Gratitude has shifted the flow of abundance in my life. Two days ago as I was impacted by a wonderful flow of abundance into my life I had an Ah Ha moment. It’s been through my own struggle with paying for two houses and all the accompanying bills, that allows me the insight to share with others in similar situations, allowing them to see that they too can make a positive shift in their life by focusing in gratitude.

Gratitude aligns our us with our spirit, gratitude lifts our energy and shifts our body energy to a dimension of universal love that best serves our body, life and spirit.
