Healing Our Energy-IN-Motion, Emotions: A Therapeutic Approach

This fun and creative project allows you to turn your attention within, to focus your INTENTION and your ATTENTION

on you and on cultivating self appreciation, self respect, self value and self love.

This is a very special Tree that will help you, through out this season of Spring, of Renewal to cultivate a better relationship with yourself. 

When we love and appreciate ourselves then we feel happy, this too evokes a sense of value fulfillment. So, invest some time this Spring on getting to know yourself better.

Think with your heart. 

This unique Tree is a symbol of a living being that is well rooted, steady and strong and that grows out branches as it expands out, as it continues to dream dreams of itself into being. This precious Tree is YOU and it is all about your own life. 

Steps

Choose a branch of a small tree and plant it on a beautiful planter of your choice.

Give a Name to this precious Tree.

Set the INTENTION for your Tree, for example, say something like this; this is a tree focusing on cultivating the virtue of GRATITUDE, or to on cultivating the VIRTUE of APPRECIATION and LOVE FOR THE SELF.

Make hearts cut out using paper or note cards, with a stream to hang those note cards on the tree.

Write down on those the INTENTION that you have chosen to focus on. Close your eyes, take a deep breath slowly through your nose, then, exhale slowly through your mouth while repeating this mantra;

Mantra: I open my heart to love. I let go of all that doesn't serve me well any more. I focus on LOVE and on feeling GRATITUDE, APPRECIATION.

Take the first heart cut out and think of an aspect of yourself that you feel APPRECIATION for. Continue to look for things that you feel appreciation for on yourself; on your character, on your features, on your special talents, on your physical features, on the gift of your imagination, on the ways of your heart and so on...

Mantra: I love and appreciate myself.


Have daily meaningful conversations with your Tree. This is your friend, a friend that you have planted and that you are learning how to care for it.

Love and light!

On The Healing And Strengthening Of The Human Heart... A Personal Experience

On the emotional aspect of heart healing, of healing our immune system and on how the psycho-somatic and psycho-neuro-immunology influence our heart health.

What can I do to help my heart, and to help create inner balance and healing within myself?  It is all about mindfulness, about time and attention which are the basis of love.

It is all about our daily meditation, time to be in solitude and to turn our attention inward.


1. The Spiritual essence of THE HEART represents the center of love and security in our lives.
- Mantra: My heart beats to the rhythm of love.
- Mantra: I express and craft joy into being, for myself and for others.


2. The Spiritual essence of THE CORONARY ARTERIES BRANCHES is to deliver oxygenated blood to all of the heart's cells. So, how the thoughts that we feel, which influence our emotional health, such as feeling safe and strong, or such as feeling lonely, fearful or scared could influence the biochemical messages, (the chemical instructions) send to the heart arteries and throughout the rest of our miraculous human body.

- Mantra: I am willing to release my fears. I am safe. I am loved. I am love.


Today as in every Monday, I do observe the intention of a Miracle Monday. I do expect Miracles on Mondays... There is power in living in a state of "expectation."


MEDITATION:
I do exist as a divine spirit light. All living  beings born into physical as human beings are born as free.

I am so free that I can choose bondage. I choose in freedom to see myself as being free. I am free in my emotions and in my mind.

No one can think for me, and this is a true premise.  No one can feel for me, and this too is a true premise. My life is a personal experience, and I choose what do I want to become, what is it that I want more of and what is it that I don't want more of.

Today, in the silence of a prayer, of this conversation with myself, of this meditation in the presence of this pure positive energy that gives me life... today I am focusing on the healing of my heart, and then I choose to let go of all my self impose limitations, or beliefs that do not longer serve me well.  Today I choose to focus on new and better thoughts about myself, about the opinion that I have of myself, about my life and about others. Today I choose to think thoughts are uplifting for me.

This week I will mindfully focus on this spiritual cultivation; on cultivating a free heart. And, this is the main intention of these reflective words, of these mantras and the more that I choose to repeat these words, the more that my heart opens my mind to the full awareness of my divine human nature.

Mantra:  I am free.

Mantra:  I am safe and that is the nature of my life. 

SPIRITUAL CULTIVATIONS:
Every day of this week I set aside 15 min for this daily meditation.

- I take a deep breath visualizing this pure positive light energy all around me and coming from my heart.
- I exhale slowly... through my mouth while contemplating the presence of this light in me and around me.

Now, I turn my attention to my body, to my heart and I listen... I do listen to my body, to the cells of my heart that vibrate information for me. When I talk to my body then the cells of my body receive the message. We talk to our bodies constantly, either deliberately or by default, but we do keep in a state of this constant communication to the cells of our bodies.

On healing my heart and to my coronary arteries which are in me to transport oxygen, and to detox my heart and the veins of my body, I daily cultivate the habit of listening to the messages coming from the cells of my body, and I do talk back to the cells of my body as well. And, I do listen without interruptions and without judgement to the voice of my heart.

My coronary arteries are feeling good today, they are saying to me that they are healthy and that they are feeling

I mindfully release from my heart and from the coronary arteries tension, and I let go too of any negative emotion based on fear, based on negative self talk or on fear.

strong because I am allowing the flow of feeling like free, the flow of freedom and of self love in me. My coronary arteries are saying to me today that they are willing to let go of the emotion of doubt, of uncertainty, of loneliness, or of fear that causes stress to my veins and to the flow of well being in me.


QUESTIONS FOR SELF REFLECTION:

1. And what to do when it comes to feeling the emotion of fear.  What comes to my mind?  Write it down.

2. Fear is a friend, a friend that comes to me to signal an evaluation.  What comes to my mind? Write it down.
Fear is an e-motion, energy in motion.

3. What is the message that Fear brings for me? Fear comes to say, are you prepare? Are you prepare for what is coming, for what is about to happen, for what is unfolding right before you?

What comes to mind in regards to the vibrational words offer by Fear to us? Write it down.

Thank you Fear for coming to me, for being able to talk about something that I am not feeling in control of. Now I do realize that clarity is power and that I can do this. I can take care of myself and of my life.




I first think a thought and this thought is followed by an e-motion, energy in motion, which are those chemical messengers that transport neurotransmitters, which are cells coming from the brain traveling throughout the nerve system to my heart, and to my caronary arteries, they transport the essences of the thoughts that I choose to think.

Mantra: What I think of me is of value.

Mantra: I choose to think thoughts that help me to feel prosperous, healthy and happy.

The words that I choose to define myself, to talk to my body or for self talk influence my body at a cell level.


I send blessings to you;
In the name of the strong
In the name of what is truth
In the name of the beautiful
In the name of the essence of freedom
and, In the name of love.

Happy and Prosperous Chinese Spring Festival 2020, Chinese New Year

 

Chinese New Year 2020 falls on Saturday, January 25, 2020, beginning a year of the Rat. The Chinese New Year, also called the Spring Festival, is the longest annual holiday. It starts on the first of the Lunar Calendar and lasts until the 15th day.

The Spring Festival marks a new year on the lunar calendar and represents the desire for a new life.

The Rat is associated with the Metal Element... Meticulous. In terms of yin and yang (阴阳—yīn yáng), the Rat is Yang (Divine Masculine), and it represents Renewal, the beginning of a new day. The Yang Metal Rat influences the 12 Chinese Zodiac Signs in 2020.  The Metal Element Color is White, it is of value to focus on cultivating Integrity, Achieving Academic Excellence and on being an Instrument of Peace. 

The Yang Metal element in Traditional Chinese Energy Medicine symbolizes autumn, that is, harvest time.  The Metal Element governs the Year of The Rat 2020, and the basis are in structure, in order, in self discipline and in precision.

The Yang Metal Rat 2020 is the year of renewed ambitions and strategies, where one turn one's back to the past, accepts the lessons that have been learned and keep the experiences that are for good, to have evolved ourselves spiritually speaking. 

What is the purpose of life and what is then the Spiritual meaning of a New Year? The purpose of life is to love, to learn how to love the self, and to love the self it is first necessary to know the self. Love is too about self appreciation and how can we appreciate something that we don't know, then it is necessary to invest this life to know the self, to know and to cultivate, appreciate who we are.  The Spiritual meaning of a New Year is always about embracing the energy of new beginnings, under the umbrella of a Constructive Cycle. It is a choice to want to focus on where we are going and to let go of what doesn't serve us well any more.  But more over, this new year of 2020, The Yang Metal Rat energy or spiritual essence is inviting us to focus on inner harmony, inner balance, self reflection and silence to create this space so needed within to be able to listen, to listen to our unique voice within.  

May time for Meditation, for self reflection, for study of the self be too a New Year goal. And, most of all, this year the dominant color present throughout the year is the color White for Metal... so let's focus on making and nurturing peace and peaceful ways, and for this, for peace to exist we first have to disarm our minds and our hearts. 

The Metal Rat is Passionate about everything it undertakes, it loves freedom and this is a good environment to power our Imagination. But, are the basis of the thoughts that we choose to think of importance to craft worlds into being?  Yes, so it is important to learn how to choose and cultivate our Roots, to grow Branches toward the outcomes that we aim at; like Rats who are associated with the energy of Prosperity, Optimism, Creativity, Meticulous and of a Financial Stability.  

China is a nation of colorful languages. There are many variations to even the most simple Chinese New Year greetings. You have probably heard of xīn nián kuài lè (新年快乐) or Happy New Year, but it is said differently in other Chinese regions.

China is home to over ten dialects including the Beijing dialect, Cantonese, and Shanghainese.  Cantonese is also one of the most widely used dialects in China apart from Mandarin.

“Happy Spring Festival” in Mandarin, say chūn jiē kuài lè.

Calligraphy is another popular form of Art in China.

Characters representing blessings are written on square pieces of red paper and pasted on walls, doors, or windows. The most common character used as Chinese New Year decoration is fu (福) as it represents fortune.

The Kongming Lantern (孔明灯) is especially significant during the festival. People write down their wishes on these lanterns before releasing them to the heavens in hopes of getting their wishes granted.

Tale of the 12 Zodiac Animals

The story of the 12 zodiac animals is one of the most well-known Chinese New Year myths. The order of the twelve zodiac animals was determined by a race arranged by the Jade Emperor

According to one folktale, the Jade Emperor decided that the order of the animals would be determined according to the order by which they arrived at his party. This zodiac animal cleverly convinced the Ox to give him a ride. Just as the pair arrived at the door, the Rat jumped ahead and landed before the Ox.


The tiger and the rabbit then followed soon after. Instead of potentially finishing ahead of the pack, the dragon was delayed because it deviated from the race to save an entire village from a flood. The snake arrived at the same time as the dragon but was too small to be noticed immediately. The dog, the monkey, and the rooster finished together after they helped a god in another country. Finishing close to each other was the horse and the goat. The horse was just a tad bit faster than the goat. After its home was destroyed by a wolf, the pig had to rebuild its house before entering the race and, eventually, finishing last.

Spring Festival Food

Chinese people give a lot of merit and importance to 'seeds', and this is to me a significant and a meaningful spiritual metaphor. Seeds signify one's potential as a miraculous human being for great things. In Traditional Chinese Energy Medicine seeds are use for their invaluable 'energetic potential' to influence biomarkers of health and well being in our physical body. 

Chinese people love their baked seeds as one of the most popular snacks to celebrate the Spring Festival or to welcome a New Year, a new and better beginning... for the self and for everyone. 

 Cultivate Balance, 

Cultivate Prosperity Consciousness,

 Treasure Your Family, Nurture Others, Be Happy...

Once an Elder 92 years old said to me this; "It is foolish not to be happy."  So, I am inviting everyone to focus on the perusing of inner happiness and of happiness as a way of life. Let's focus on that which we wish to create and on that which we want more of...

Note: The Unlucky Things to Do at Chinese New Year

Sweeping up on New Year's Day: don't "sweep all your luck away".  😉

Love and Light!

Happy New and Better Beginnings... IN Love

The Vegan Golden Milk - Anti-Inflammatory, Digestive, Lubricates the Joints...

This very tasty drink, is wonderful for the spine, lubricates the joints, cartilages, improves skin conditions (internal and external tissue) and helps to break up calcium deposits that form kidney or liver stones and most importantly, it improves immune function.

Turmeric contains curcumin, which has been used for its medicinal properties for ages, it aids to prevent inflammation, boost immunity, maintaining cholesterol levels, promoting digestive health, anti-cancer restoring oxidative stress and oxidation to the cells of the skin (the largest organ of the body), improves brain function and memory (neuron cell function and connectivity), and it can work as a detoxifier.

1/4 – 1/3 tsp. turmeric
1/3 cup water
8 oz. coconut or almond milk (or other milk that you like - rice or soy)
1 teaspoon of coconut oil
1 teaspoon of raw honey

- 1 tbsp. raw almond oil and 1 tbsp of sesame seed oil (a positive influence on blood glucose, hemoglobin, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant levels.)

- Honey to taste (make sure it is a good natural kind of honey.) You could also serve it with a little bit of cinnamon.

Preparation: Boil turmeric in water for about 5 minutes. Add the milk and the almond oil and heat it up for about two more minutes while mixing it well with a wood spoon. (Remember to be mind-full of your kind of energy when you cook because you pass that energy to the foods you prepare.) Remove from heat, let it rest for 10 min and add to the mix two tbsp of honey.

Refrigerate and drink it as many times as you wish (cold or hot.) We, yogis, drink this a lot to fortify, lubricate and make our joints more flexible.

Just remember that during Fall (Metal Element) and during the Winter (Water Element) season  water in our body may cause dampness.  In Traditional Chinese Medicine, dampness is considered to be the cause of many illnesses such as high cholesterol, cancer, metabolic disorders, chronic fatigue syndrome, allergies and environmental illness. For the sake of this discussion, only the symptoms of the aberrations of water metabolism will be considered. There are two general categories of dampness: external and internal. Internal dampness is the most common and easily will combine with heat or cold to cause damp-heat or damp-cold. Dampness can be thought of as the condition of "high humidity" inside the body. Symptoms can include a feeling of heaviness, swelling or water retention, distended abdomen, phlegm discharge, nodular masses, loose bowels and turbidity of fluids. Individuals with a dampness condition often have sluggish energy and easily gain weight.

Some symptoms of dampness in the body are:

• fatigue, body heaviness, sluggishness
• excess weight
• cysts, tumors
• yeast infections
• bloating and gas
• unclear thinking
• chronic sinus infections
• cloudy urine
• joint inflammation
• dry skin
• foul smelling stools

Tips for better nutrition:

Employ slow cooking methods that use lower temperatures for long periods
of time: roasting, baking, stewing and braising help extract the deeper "Chi"
or life force energy from our foods. This process doesn't "kill" food nutrients exposed
to high temperatures for long periods of time, while cooking them. :)

Please remember not to over-cook vegetables. Steam vegetables no longer than 7 to 8 minutes. Remember that we want to eat nutrition and energetically alive food.


The Sunshine Vitamin: expose yourself to 15 minutes of sunshine a day, without the use of sunscreen, especially before 12 noon and after 3:00 p.m. And remember to love everything and everyone. Otherwise I advice to take the Vitamin D3 as a supplement. 

I want to send a heartfelt thank you to all my yoga teachers,
also to all my Qi-Gong and Chinese Energy Medicine professors.
I do love them and appreciate their gifts, and all what they have helped me become throughout the years. :)
Sat Nam...  Namaste. 🙏💜

Love and light!
Katherine

In My World... The One I Choose To Live In.

Design your better world with a youth-full heart...

I want to tell you a little bit about My Divine World, the one I choose to live IN.

In my world we live connected to the heart. In my world people practice ADMIRATION for one another. We love to live in COOPERATION.

In my world ALL Spiritual Humans are great miraculous light beings. Spirit has given birth to fantastic intelligent creatures to transcend Spirit into this time and space reality, our divine imagination, our heart, our inner and outer senses, our hands in motion, our fingers dancing our heart impulses... we are grace.

In my world energy money is given free as a match to our perception of self, our self-worth and self-love, and everybody has as much as they want... of everything. We live not to make money but to invest "energy money" as a resource to create our dreams. :) In my world all Spiritual Humans create "energy money" and "prosperity" with our choices of thoughts.

In my world Spirit gave us a body so we never be HOME-LESS, and Spirit gave us a heart so we never be HEART-LESS.

In my world people know that there is only a source of "light" and "darkness" is the absence of light.

In my world we dissolve fears by not giving power to doubt, but rather by empowering our capacity to live and to achieve our dreams. In my world we dissolve fear by living IN cooperation and love.

In my world everyday feels like Monday... new beginnings. We all-ways expect miracles on Mondays. We call them... The Magical Mondays and we, in our hearts, express gratitude to Mr. Sun, a bright light that shines for everyone. We begin the week with an optimistic mind, optimistic thoughts, positive emotions and a joy-full energy.

In my world we don't fight. We don't blend with the negative energy of violence, trickery or harm to achieve peace or freedom. In my world we know that to fight is to create negative energy, a false premise. In my world we Spiritual Humans are advance species and we know that when we choose to fight we become the energy that we fight. In my world, we rather create that which we want to live in. In my world we craft better worlds into being in cooperative. How could we have power when we choose to take action disconnected from our Source of Love?


In my world members of the Spiritual Human Species don't kill other members of the Spiritual Human Species and we are so famous in the entire cosmos because of our politeness and honorable ways that we use to treat one another.

The world I live IN is full of comics. We laugh a lot.

In my world jail is fear, it is not a place but a state of the mind and the soul. When we shift our thoughts and focus to acknowledge ACTIONS-IN-LOVE as healing "the cell" gets open. The same as poverty. Love is freedom.

In my world love doesn't know of lacks of, love doesn't use scare tactics. In my world every member of our civilization is taught that we are love. :)

In my world people know ALL animals, trees and flowers by their name. All life forms, all living beings are treated with reverence and profound respect, as cosmic miracles. In my world all living beings are a family.

In my world Elders are experienced Children and Children are Elders doing it all over again. Everyone lives IN love. Aging is a gift and a natural process of evolving and it has nothing to do with deterioration or loss. In my world Aging is appreciated and a subject of celebration.

In my world we don't work, we only PLAY. In my world we relax and create.

In my world there is not dead, instead what is known as dead is a HAPPY GRADUATION. We can not end energy, only evolve it.

In my world everyone ice skate or roller skate. We learn it since we are 4 and when we turn 12 we learn how to fly.

In my world every living being vibrates its own music... the music of their heart. Even an asparagus has its own music. In my world we cultivate silence to listen. We listen without judgement or interruptions. :)

In my world all beings know that their health and happiness is all self-created and their choice.

In my world we don't explain LOVE, we don't label LOVE. We know that LOVE is conditions-free. In my world we give birth to love with our heart and we live to love.

In my world every street has a freezer or cooler with organic ice cream of all flavors. The machine only dispenses ice cream when the person says the magic code words... "Life is Fun!"

In my world we learn how to visualize and empower our many possible worlds, the ones we create using our IMAGINATION and our HEARTS. In my world we teach people that they can create their own lives, being their own source of power and creativity. In my world there is no poverty. In my world we model the focus of attention and intention on those ideas and dreams for a better world, a better life. In my world all schools teach and encourage students and community members to journal and to write their ideas and dreams for a better life.

In my world we forgive because we are beings of love. Forgive to be happy. :)

In my world people sing songs to plants and wave at the Moon and to Constellations every night. In my world all members of the Spiritual Human Species know that we are cosmic beings.

I can tell you more about My Divine World, the one I choose to live IN. Perhaps you already know that you too live in your own world, the one you choose to live IN. You can always choose to live in a better world. :)

My Friend Holly And Our Divine Travels

Dear Tourist and Travelers and Small Tourist and Travelers:

I have a friend that I would like to introduce to you, his name is Holly.
Holly is an Oak Tree that has been living in God Mother Earth, The Planet Of Peace for 169 years. Holly and I met ten years ago and soon Holly became my favorite energy healing place; to give Holly a hug, to meditate and day dream and to eat my picnic lunch along with Joy, our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. :)

I learned how to climb unto trees when I was 3 years old. I loved it because for some reason to rest in the arms of a tree gave me so much peace and allowed me to connect with my formless self. When I was a child I used to dream of having a tree house and I thought that it was a place where I could be myself, a being not judged living closer to the sky among trees.

When I met Holly it was like love at first sight and felt that Holly was speaking to me, as trees do. But when I met Holly it was like being with a soul mate and feeling so comfortable that I didn't notice that instead of two beings there was only ONE. I used to keep a sketching notebook and color pencils in a back pack and brought them with me when I climbed up trees as a child. I soon learned that I needed to paint my dreams just as I was "cooking them" and that's all that needed to happen to ask the Universe to conspire with me in their creation. Holly was always very supportive of my dreams and helped me give birth to them in my paintings. We have had the most interesting conversations. Holly's energy is very gentle and wise and it always seems to have time to talk with me when I visit him. At times Holly says "Well, I'll get back to you on that one" and he does. I must say that Holly has a great memory.

I moved Holly to a National Park because I wasn't able to keep him with me when I moved to a new home. I miss him a lot but when Joy and I have time we come over to visit Holly and have our picnics together.

1. Some people has asked me; how do you talk to trees? Well, I just do, even when I am not present or next to them. Time and place reality are only illusions in the matters of the heart. :) In preparation to talk with Holly and other plants, first I take a few slow but long relaxing breaths to bring myself back home so to speak, meaning, focus my attention to my whole being away from all other thoughts and distractions. I take four deep breaths and feel all parts of my body getting calm.  2. When I visit Holly I don't wear shoes or jewelry and when I feel ready and calm I give Holly a huge hug and ask him for permission to climb up to him and to open our hearts for a talk. Then I hear in my center (my heart), not my mind, I hear a voice that says, welcome dear one and Holly giggles... yes, Holly giggles a lot.

I have played different kinds of music to Holly and he has narrowed them to a couple of favorite songs and the rest are instrumental melodies. But I have found that music helps us connect at other levels. We both listen to the music and between notes we listen to one another. :)

By the way, I want to make sure that the readers understand that when I say "conversations" with Holly, it doesn't mean that Holly speak English... rather the heart has a capacity to translate the waves of our heart into information that our brain can perceive and recognize. All living beings are in constant communication with all other beings and each person perceives those waves with our heart. And, yes, all living beings like the ocean, stars, dogs and Spiritual Humans speak and communicate from their hearts.

Well, I hope to tell you more about one of my projects with Holly. We are writing a book about conversations and sketches of our Divine Travels. One of my favorites is when we traveled outside the energy of Earth, The Planet of Peace and sit at one of the stars in the Universe to watch souls with their suitcases go from planet to planet to continue their journeys. It is really fun, like being at a train station. Spiritual Humans are immense and eternal and what we know as death in our planet Earth seems to be a happy graduation to continue evolving. Holly believes that humanity is ready to hear about our Divine Travels and I do too. I do love when people come to me to let me know about their heart's desires and dreams and always inspire them to dream them into being, to write and paint them as they see their dreams with their hearts.

... to be continue :)

The most wonder-full Divine Travels can be experienced when we allow ourselves to go beyond our own self-imposed limitations. :)


Do you communicate with other beings? Do you talk with trees? Do you keep a journal of your Divine Travels? How do you empower your dreams? The Environment is our extended body; how do you acknowledge this spiritual integration?

I love you, I do.
Katherine
     

The Room That No One Talks About....

There’s a room in almost everyone's home, but this room is hardly mentioned. None of my Feng Shui books mention it either. And if you were to look at the blueprint of any home, you would not be able to find it anywhere. Yes, this may be the room that no too many people talk about. The strange thing is that everyone I know has it, including myself, and you – yes, you over there too – and you, you too have one, I am almost sure of it. And you go there often, yes, you do.

Hmm! This room has a name, though. I’ve heard it talked about in hush-hush circles... it does exist. Yep.. It’s called The Room Of Possibilities.
I don’t know what yours looks like but my Room of Possibilities in my home is the largest room of all. It is strewn along with a poster board I call The Wall of Possibilities, a place where I can design my dreams, cultivate my inner realities, a place where I get into me.

This Room is a place where I keep all my possible SUBJECTIVE REALITIES... coking them into being as a gain clarity and such. It is like my sort of personal INNER SELF workshop area. :)

What else do I have in my Room Of Possibilities, well I have water, journals, books, mirrors, color paper, my favorite kind of music, more water, my altar, candles, glue, scissors, an erasable board, sketching notebooks, hats, candles, a big window to talk to Mr. Sun or The White Lady, I too have "magic dots", I have tons of magic dots and I use them to connect what is into me. I have photos of light beings that have inspired me, more water, a corner with suspended possible worlds hanging on threads I have made of paper as I think them into being, I have a large pillow, lots of room to play and magic boxes... Oh, yes... magic boxes. I place my dreams and heart's desires inside these magic boxes as incubating dreams and close my eyes as I think them into being. :)

Depending on the day, the room may feel like the size of a closet and it means that I have to work on my energy and reconnect. The Room may also feel like the size of a huge mansion with large gardens and I can wonder about and get lost for hours or even for  days in "there."  This space inspires me. I can choose my life and ways I am going to live it.  The Room Of Possibilities is too a rehearsal room.  Just wondering if you have thought about this... can you rehearsal your life in this precious planet Earth before it happens? 

Oh, this is very important... no one except me enters to this Room. I can focus, connect with self and empower my dreams and choices. Would I still thrive without this Room? I personally don't think so because I need "the space" and "silence" to be with my self, gather my thoughts, balance and cultivate energy, gain perspectives or simply imagine my other possible selves.  Yes, because we light beings incarnated in a humanoi form are always in state of becoming...

There are two posters hanging at the entrance of this room that read; "The crafting of my happiness" and "My story, My Life written by me." Although this Room seems to be a fun and favorite place to be, there is some sort of sacred ritual about it... Hmm! I always seem to know, intuitively, after I’ve been in the Room for a while, that I’ve been there long enough, and that it is time to stand up, take my leave, and politely reenter my world as I know it. Yep... The Room Of Possibilities does exist within myself, beyond my imagination. :)

I craft my subjective life into being and there are many subjective possibilities for me to consider them.  I welcome and interact with other “worlds.” In my world everyone is a teacher and a student. We all have something to teach and we all have something to learn. In physical I can re train my brain with new sets of associative networks, brain cells or neurons with new sets of instructors and believes of what is important to me of what I give value to it. I can create better habits of thoughts and better habits of emotions. :)

What about you... Do you have a room similar to The Room Of Possibilities?
 What does your Room looks like? What's in it? How often do you take time to de-clutter it, to be in this room? 
Is the space you live IN, your home, telling you something about the energy within you? Is your mental and emotional body suggesting that it is time to create your personal workshop area, a space within with a vision and an intention to cultivate you, to re-connect, to work on your own betterment?

I must tell you too about the Blue Magic Carpet that is my best friend, this is the portal to my inner realities and it takes me to the formless creations I am cooking into being.  Blue is the color of the Throat Chakra, the color of self creation... my Etheric self that holds the blue print of our phsyical body, our creative potential. :)

Our energy goes on beyond our "skin." The layers of our human energy field carry the intention and the blueprint of what we have become so far; what we manifest and of what is being evolved into being. The separation between the bodies that form our whole being is only an illusion. Our aura or human energy field is actually composed of; the Etheric body, the mental body, the emotional body, the astral body, the conceptual body and the celestial and soul body. The  conceptual self is our perception of self, of our self-esteem and self-love. These are the first seven layers of our light body.

It is interesting to begin to become aware of the vision that you have of your self and your life? Your beliefs...

Have fun crafting, experiencing and shaping your Room Of Possibilities  Shush... don’t tell anyone about this. It is your secret. Did you hear that soft swishing... that’s the invisible door of my Room. It is time again... must go now... :)

Love and light!
Katherine :)

Swiming With Dolphins and Their Message, (Part II)

Transform The Way We Perceive Reality: Opening Our Hearts for Self-Healing:

We have started our journey guided by the voice of the heart that invites us to reconnect with our inner selves, with the ancient wisdom that behave in every pore of our being . As we walk and then reconvened with soul friends , we remember the infinite freedom that lies in the understanding that we are the creators of the new dream. One of our divine journeys is for inner truth and re-connection with self, Spirit-IN-Love. Many of us have heard the sacred call that the Dolphins emit from their heart. A cosmic call, an ancestral call inviting us to unity, IN love and cooperation. What Dolphins are teaching us? We are free beings, without conditions and if any, attachments are IN freedom and that's authentic love. All actions IN love are conducive to freedom, that what we share IN love is a celebration of life and the infinite connection that binds us all equally, sharing our evolving for the collective good, IN deep love and mutual respect. See yourself as an integral part of the cosmic symphony of creation IN love. We are housed by God Mother Earth to live as a family with all forms and manifestations of love. INTENTION: Transmute our old patterns of fear = pain, lack or absence and ignorance to Love = Happiness, wealth and blending (Spirit-IN-Love). INTENTION: Establish the foundations for the expansion of multidimensional consciousness. HOW? Deep meditative state to trace these codes. You can do this in a piece of paper, with pencil or color pencils; to send in healing by laying on of hands, with Crystals over your body or in the air to harmonize the spaces. REMEMBER: THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS TO ALIGN WITH THE INTENTION AND THIS IS THE MEDITATION, TO WELCOME THE ESSENCE OF THESE ENERGIES AND BECOME THEM IN OUR HEARTS FIRST. Triple Balance Third Eye Heart and Root Deep cleans our cells to integrate divine core and cosmic consciousness of love in our heart and minds. Freedom Solar Plexus Liberate from mental bonds, release all types of bonds. Unconditional Love Heart Healing of all kinds; emotional wounds, giving and receiving love and the cultivation of self-love. Healing All 7 chakras. The code carries an imprint of healing energy from Sirius which allows us to channel healing energy visualizing it directly to other beings. approaching them with our hands. Compassion and Wisdom (IN love) Throat Inspires us to live from the deepest knowing speaking truth to self and others.) Harmony Solar Plexus Alignment with Universal Harmony and the flow of good energies or emotions within. Transmutation Third eye Dilute all fear or doubt interfering with awakening the heart IN love. Peace Root Allows us to focus deeply in our hearts, listening to the inner river of love flowing within IN freedom. Wealth - Abundance Heart Tunes us with the infinite flow of life, abundance, love and light, eliminating old patterns. Codes of Light are alive and intelligent energy that remain in flow through clean channels of pure Light, integrity and ethics that act from love. The law of cause and effect is always in motion! Keep that in mind! act with ethics and respect enables you to attract higher frequencies of love into your life. I am passing ON the message of our dear Dolphins. This work is share IN Love with the purpose of helping You in your life, spiritual awakening and self-healing. Love and light, friends! Katherine :)

How To Make a Taoist Shrine or a Taoist Altar

Dearest friends,

Happy Lunar New Year 2018, Chinese New Year Celebration!  The 2018 Chinese New Year begins on Friday, February 16.  2018 will be the first Year of the Earth Dog since 1958. 

MEANING OF THE YEAR OF THE DOG: You come more into your power, are respected, and can emerge a leader. Main energies; honesty, stability, practicality, balance, gentleness, idealistic & unselfish.  2018 signifies a huge shift toward the earth element, and away from the chaotic and often stressful fire element of the 2016 Monkey and the 2017 Rooster. Those born in Dog, Dragon, Sheep/Ram, Rooster, and Ox years are advised to tread carefully and pay attention to to their health in the 2018 Dog year.  The Earth Element - The Year Of The Dog is about making peace with yourself and creating peace, being IN peace and peace-full.

Questions to Katherine: What is the purpose of having a Taoist Altar at home and how to make one.
Answer: Now that we are beginning The Year Of The Dog, the year of The Earth Element - (it is all about nurturing and nourishment) to give but also to nurture oneself. This is a good time too to build your own Taoist Altar at home. I have written down some ideas for you;

A Taoist Altar represents some of the core beliefs of TAO spiritual cultivations to nurture the foundations of a life in balance. Turning our attention within mindfully, we become aware of the actual conjoin of light beings, of the subtle universal divine order and we develop and see with our inner sense how all diverse universal light form energies are interplaying constantly and ever evolving, never in “danger” and always become more as a result of co-creation in contrast, meaning with elements or light forms that are diverse and at times different. Harmony, Appreciation, Divine Flow Of Well-Being are some of the natural ways of life of a disciple of the TAO. For me, to live mindfully the ways of the TAO is to freely and IN love adopt a self-discipline to harmonize with universal laws while in physical focused form and to transcend our Divine Essence into being. :)

I have created this Taoist Altar at home for prayer, cultivation and it is a corner to nurture, to evoke peace and harmony. I have also incorporated light forms that represent the five elements or five steps and foundations; Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. When I come before the Taoist Altar I come here to emptied my mind, to open my heart and to listen... to tune in to the divine visible and invisible forces of the Universe. The TAOist Altar is also a place for renewal and contemplation and most importantly, of appreciation for All There Is.

The Three Pure Ones: Formless Divine Intentional Energies
The Jade Pure One (Shen), - The Supreme Pure One (Jing), - The Grand Pure One - Qi

Divine and Perfect Order is also represented with the integration of the Five Elements, of Yin and Yang Essences and with the presence of Life Force Energy “Qi.”

The WOOD element is represented by the Altar Table made of wood, an oak wood carved yin and yang symbol, a bamboo screen that represents idealism and the status of Buddha.

The FIRE element is represented by white and gold candles, sandalwood incense for purification and transformation. Fire has great power for forging will and determination, inner light and passion for life.

The EARTH element is represented by feathers, a bonsai to honor our elders and a crystal grid depending on the healing intentional energy I am crafting into being. Earth is too about nurturing. 

The METAL element is represented by a bell, a statue of Francis of Assisi patron of animals and nature and an inspiration for peaceful ways, a white box containing a list of heartfelt dreams I am currently manifesting into being and a 15 piece geometry set used for technical drawing supplies. I have included this curious set of utensils because the Metal element is about structure and methods and building up characteristics and these supplies remind me of drafting something that is visually created by the imagination, it is like giving birth to a formless idea into functional visual language.

The WATER element is represented by a water fountain, an Earth-Heart shape water glass and a water statue of Archangel Metatron the guardian of the Tree Of Life. Water also represents constitution, an agile mind, flow and emotions.

It is important not to lose the message in the symbol, to choose symbols that could evoke the essence of All There Is, the TAO, the formless energy of infinite possibilities.

I wish you joy, harmony and prosperity in your divine journey and in the process of designing your own TAOist Altar.

I LOVE YOU, I DO!

Katherine

Full Moon Ritual For Self-Reflection and Self Evolving

The Full Moon is back! :)

Each Moon cycle generates energy flow. The Full Moon is all about Prosperity and Abundance, about the completion of a cycle, dream manifestation, self-empowerment and the presence of light in our hearts and in our lives.
Many cultures and religions observe the “Return of the Light” ceremony or ritual as the days begin to lengthen after this night. I do personally connect with the energy of The White Lady, Yin, Water Element (Emotions - energy in motion) and work on my personal heart's desires. May this simple and mind-full ritual inspire you as well. :)
About a personal Full Moon Ritual, for self-evolving and self-creation.
First, invest some time working on your personal goals. This is important. Why? Because action without intentional "though-forms" is a waste of energy.  Let us invest more time gaining clarity of intention and shaping our "though-forms." You create energy by thinking thoughts. All electrons are pre-cognitive.
 
Prior to the Full Moon ritual...
1. Use your Journal, a notebook to write only about your Spiritual and Heart-to-Heart meditations or reflections.

2. Draw a big T on it.

3. On the left column write down the things you want to bid farewell to in your life. Saying goodbye to these things will make room for better things to come in. Keep in mind the action effort of: "decluttering your life."

BE TRUTHFUL...
- About Relationships (self and others)
- About Personal Development
- About Professional Development
- About Overall Balance and Well-Being.
- About Emotional Healing

4. Turn your attention to the right column and write down things that you are ready to introduce and change for the better in your own life.

5. Chose a word "verb" to make simple phrases with it. This is your mantra for now, that helps you stay focus and bring you back to your intentions. Examples: I Choose, Relax, Manifest, Love...

FULL MOON RITUAL: PERSONAL OR AMONG FRIENDS - PRAYER CIRCLE

1. Light a candle: (white, silver or pink) and a choose a quiet meditative space.

Light a Candle with Intention - Lighting a candle for a particular purpose or intention symbolizes bringing light, that vibrational frequency to affect our auric field. Allow only positive, optimistic thoughts to be with you, IN you. Close your eyes and see the world (your world - the one that makes your heart sing), filled with events, circumtances, thoughts and your dreams of happiness and prosperity. Open your eyes.

Now that the intention has been created by you and that you are one with your dreams, Light the candle, a blue candle, a white candle

3. If possible, stand or sit under the Moon light. Look up and breath in the energy of the Moon. Breath in good energy from Heaven and Earth and allow you to align with light and love. Visualize a silver/white light around your body, like an aura of JOY, that's the Moon embracing your whole being. Silently take a moment to calm down and focus.

4. Bring your attention to your personal goals. Focus on them, visualize them and give them power, believe in them. Allow the visible and invisible forces of the Divine Universe to help you manifest your dreams. You are loved. Make small offerings like; selfless acts of kindness, develop a new habit that will allow the nature of your being, a divine light, to be an instrument of LOVE and PEACE or care for nature. :)

Small beginnings... greater ends. Heartfelt work grow slowly. Trust. :) Take a deep breath and with your hands allow the energy of the Moon to be absorb by your heart. Thank the Moon for its loving guidance knowing that Divine Feminine - constitution - is crafting cooperative energy into being. :)  

Love and light,
Katherine :)
