YOU’RE A LEADER – ST. JOAN OF ARC

“A leader best serves by being an example and role model, so live in such a way that others admire your integrity and strength of character.”

You’ve known this for some time. You are in fact, a wonderful leader of thought, spirit, education, expression, whatever it is your heart now lands on when you read this message.

This is a clear nudge from the angels that you are to step up to the plate…time no more to turn your cheek and look for others to be the ones to make the change so needed in the world.

Think of St. Joan of Arc and her bravery and passion for her message…she is the patron saint of those who are persecuted for their spiritual beliefs and for women in the service.

Channel her divine energy, pray for guidance and clarity, and make a difference starting today. This is a new week, after a new moon, and the Universe is calling upon you now.

~Message of St. Joan of Arc card ~

You´re called upon to use your leadership skills to help an important cause. Through prayer, God, Joan of Arc , and other saints and angels will give you clear guidance as to how to be the best leader. Your Divinely guided actions and words will motivate others into positive work. A leader best serves by being a living example and role model, so live in such a way that others admire your integrity. St.Joan of Arc is an inspiration to anyone who feels called to help. At age 15, the french farm girl had a vision in which she saw lights and heard voices (Saints Michael, Catherine and Margaret, among others) telling her to save France from the English invasion. Joan fallowed her Divine guidance, successfully led the French army to victory, and installed Charles VII as king of France.

 

Mindfulness Tips & Facts

Anyone can practice mindfulness but it might take a bit of practice. At first you might find it hard to stop your mind from wandering. Here are sum fun facts to help you distract your mind, and help you refocus your mind.

So what is this thing called mindfulness? Below are some definitions:

  • The awareness that emerges through paying attention on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally to the unfolding of experience moment to moment (Kabat-Zinn, 2003).
  • The non-judgmental observation of the ongoing stream of internal and external stimuli as they arise (Baer, 2003).
  • Keeping one’s complete attention to the experience on a moment to moment basis (Martlett & Kristeller, 1999).

Medically speaking..

After 8 weeks of practicing mindfulness exercises for an an average of 27 minutes per day, MRI scans of participants showed that mindfulness:

  • stimulated a significant increase in the density of gray matter in the hippocampus, important for learning and memory;
  • increased the density of gray matter in other neural structures associated with self-awareness, compassion and introspection;
  • decreased the density of gray matter in the amygdala – the part of the brain associated with anxiety and stress.

According to Harvard University, Studies have shown that mindfulness can:

  • relieves stress
  • relieves depression
  • relieves anxiety
  • lowers blood pressure
  • improve chronic pain
  • improve sleep
  • improves capacity to deal with stress
  • improves ability to form deeper connections with others.
  • Mindfulness has also been found to boost immune function.

Setting an Intention 

Setting an Intention

What is an intention?

Intentions can long term or short term process of manifesting a goal or achievement, it is a guiding principle for how you want to be, live, and show up in the world.

Why set an intention?

Setting an intention triggers the first step in the process of manifestation in order to achieve an accomplishment. it is a powerful practice because it’s the first step to embodying that which you want.

Wayne Dyer said, “Our intention creates our reality.” And how many times have you heard “What you think, you become,” or “Thoughts become things”?

How do I set an intention and stay on track?

Here are some of the tips which I think can help us set intentions and achieve them.

Make a firm decision ~

Set your intention firmly. Identify what you want. Pledge to make a change in your lifestyle.Your intention should be closely tied to your personal thoughts, values and perspective on life.

Identify your priorities~

Your intentions should be cohesive with your vision of yourself ahead of time. Learn to identify where you are in the present moment and what coincides with the lifestyle you want. your intentions can be a clear and specific wish, or could be  as simple as a word or phrase you’d like to align yourself with, such as “i will have more compassion for myself and others”, or “i will open your mind and heart,” ” i will love myself more” Etc..

Here are some thought-starters to help you get started in forming an intention~

  • What would you like to build, create, or nurture in your life?
  • What would you like to let go of?
  • How do you feel when you are your happiest self?
  • What fears would you like to release?
  • What are you grateful for?
  • Who would you like to forgive in your life?

Write them down or  create a vision board~

An effective way of visualizing your intention is to write it down or create a vision board with newspaper or magazine clippings which can remind you every day. like place you want to visit, items you will save up and purchases, the healthy dream body you want to achieve , how you want to decorate your home,What matters most to you?

Review 
~

Once you have written them down, take a step back and review your intention. Are they realistic? Or are you committing to something that won’t align well with the lifestyle you lead?  also you must revisit it often and when needed

Make an action plan
Set a plan that is cohesive to your life style. There could be more than one method or pathway to arrive at your destination. Decide on a plan to achieve that suits you.

Track your progress
 ~

This is important to determine if you are headed in the right direction with your intention. If not, sit back and re-evaluate. If something isn’t working you have the power to tweak your action plan.

Involve others, 
It is always good to involve others to hold yourself accountable. Tell anyone and everyone. It will help boost your motivation.

Welcome failure & Celebrate your wins ~

Don’t give up because of obstacles. There could be many paths leading to the same destination. Try out different methods. Learn and be patient. 
Failure is an important part of the entire process. Welcome it. Learn from it. Intentions can sometimes deviate from the original plan and that is OK! So persist
.

and remember…

Celebrate your wins. Even small achievements. The loss of 2 lbs, Your boss praising you,   or that promotion.  You are one step closer.

Don’t lose sight! 
Stay focused on the end result and  don’t get distracted by the time it takes or obstacles that may block our path.

Love 

Love

Send love to anything and everything! It is the most powerful energy and since thoughts are energy, imagining it works!

Think of your heart, the central part of the human body, the only organ that works without any nervous system sitimulation, the heart beats to its own intrinsic rhythm “It dances to the beat of its own drumb”.  It fires off signals of life every 1 – 2seconds, this amazing organ is not only a tool that conducts energy, not only for you and to you, but also conducts it out away from you. Energy is something that moves through things, into things and out of things. The energy that is created within your heart can be moved to other places. So Please send out heart energy in such a way that it touches others.

Just imagine white or pink light or anything else that you feel symbolizes love best and let it surround or fill anything you wish! It feels amazing and it is one of the easiest ways to help anyone you love, family friends, someone you see suffering from a far, animals and even situations.

When heart energy touches someone, it affects them. They have a choice to both receive the energy and take it inside, or allow it to pass through them. Even if it passes through them, it touches them in some way.

So Be Love.. Send Love… Receive Love

Self- Talking the power booster of Manifestation

Self- Talk & the Law Of Attraction

Self Talking is an every-second practiced activity and a minor conscious tweaking in it can boost the process of  manifesting.

We as humans all talk to ourselves every moment ( i bet you observed it now & had a self -talking thought,  processing that statement).  We all have a silent, internal conversation with ourselves, in our mind, almost all of the time.  This is called Internal Self-Talk and is totally natural and healthy. Sometimes we knowingly talk to our self about what we are thinking about and sometimes we self talk in regards to things we find interesting or observe in that moment of time, these related thoughts are nothing but your attraction. Remember what Law of attraction says “Like attracts like”.

Self Talking is an every moment practiced activity and with just a minor conscious tweak  can boost the process of manifestation.

What thoughts circulate in your mind daily? how do you self talk to yourself?

Are you the one who is very clear on what you do not like in life?

what kind of person who always says maybe one day?

Are you the one who looks at your dream things and thinks  “i wish i its mine”?

Are you a wishful Thinker?

Are you the one who says yourself to calm down and relax? 

do you always feel and think “the worst always happens to me” or “This won’t work out.”

Are you always thinking “I never get things right.” and  ” how come i cant  do that”

Well those are some examples of what will NOT help manifest your dreams and desires. Word’s like these are a powerful way of stopping positive manifestations and attracting the wrong situations in your life. Be a positive power talker, by being a power attractor.  A Power attractor is always a Power Talker and remember words are not just words, they have inherent power.

 Quick tips to be instant positive Self – thinker

1- Observe your thoughts

“A thought, when given attention, starts thinking more thoughts”.

Observing your thoughts and emotions behind your words is the first vital step if you want to master how to use law of attraction. Observation is certainly the most important phase when you talk to yourself. So when a negative thought arises in your mind, it has the capacity to attract more negative thoughts. the key here is not to fuel the negative thought ” fire” by giving it more attention and in the absence of attention, a negative thought simply loses its force and dies back into the nothingness from which it arose. this also applies to positive thoughts, so fuel the right word fire in your mind, even if it may require you to put in extra effort, just trust me and have faith.

 

2 – Re – work the way you look at life.

Learning to Re program  and re paraphrase your words is a great technique to attracting positive Self- talk and manifesting our dreams.  All you have to do is to check your self-talks instead of saying ” she has a better life and more money than me, or they are fitter and have a better body than me , my life is nothing compared to theirs, you are connecting YOU with those  poor outcomes and this is  sending a very strong signal in Universe on what you want and the universe will match your energy and be given more ” poverty, weight gain, less money etc….

instead of associating you with negative experiences you can say

“I am already Wealthy.”

“Oh! How wonderful a wealthy lifestyle is”

“I like them, but i do business better than them, and i am getting more wealthy than they are ”

” My body is fit and healthy, i maintain my goal weight, and weight loss comes easy and effortlessly to me”

” happy and positive situations always happen to me”

The more if you are in sync with what you actually want the quicker it will manifest. Is it not wonderful approach to see yourself in a more positive , prosper light?

3 – the power of gratitude

As i have written in my article The power of gratitude, gratitude is the fastest way of changing your mindset and boosting your manifestation process. It’s more difficult to be negative about situations you face when you are remembering things you are grateful for, writing a daily list every morning of what you have got going on in your life can reduce depression, reduce negative self- talk, boost self esteem. ” attitude of gratitude ” is a good health choice, being more grateful more often can make us an optimistic and happier.

A healthy dose of positive self talk can dispel a large amount of negative. Being consciously aware of your self – talk and thought process you can begin to filter through your thoughts and feed the positive and defuse the fire on negative.We always have the ability to turn negative self talk into positive. You will begin to feel lighter and more positive.Positive words are more powerful than negative, because they are more closely aligned with our true nature (or Higher Self). Remember always come from the place of gratitude and appreciation and loving yourself for who you are even as you strive in developing and getting better.

So start listening to yourself!

Today’s Oracle Card

~Pray~

We are being asked to pay special attention as to what we are praying for right now. Where do your thoughts spend their time? Where do they go when you are having a “bad” day compared to a “good” day? Do you keep an open dialogue with your angels and guides, the archangels, faery, Source, the Universe, the ascended masters… whoever resonates with you… asking for assistance for yourself and those you love?

The angels bring this card to you because you’ve been trying to fix this situation single-handedly. They’d love to help you and answer your prayers, but first you need to surrender and release the situation, and you can d this by simple praying, you don’t have to be formal or worry about how and what you say as long as you are talking from an open heart.

It means emotionally letting go, with faith that the Divine wisdom of Spirit (which includes your higher self) can do a better job. If you need help with any situation whether its regarding your life purpose or a situation you need guidance on , pray and  ask the angels to assist you.

Don’t worry about how your prayer will be answered. Let God figure out the details , be open to a response appearing different from what you expected

Be willing to ask for help

 

The power of gratitude 

If I could give you the key or a magic potion that could transform your life and make you healthier, happier wealthier , increase productivity and optimism and no cost would you be interested?

Well…

The universal law of attraction tells us that we will attract into our lives the things we focus  and think about. Science tells us that an ” attitude of gratitude ” is a good health choice, being more grateful more often can make us an optimistic and happier.

Being grateful can improve life productivity hear are 4 reason why it works…

Gratitude attracts what you want.

Law of attraction states “ask ,and it is given” , and well what a power statement. We attract into our lives what we think about especially things we put deep focus and emotion to. And sense this is  true would you want to attract more things that you are grateful for , not things you count as a disaster in your life. So the rule of thumb is when you are thankful for and count the blessings that you have in your life you change , you are focusing more clearly on what you do want in your life and are attracting more of those things.

Ask, believe and receive…

Expectation is a powerful force, expect the things you want , and don’t except the things you don’t want.

Gratitude reduces negative

It’s more difficult to be negative about situations you face when you are remembering things you are grateful for, one of the quickest ways to improve your mood is to count your blessings. Nothing in the world can bother you or make you negative but your own mind, it’s not that others are not bothering you , its your perception and your mind that decide for you, so change your thoughts change your world.

When something is wrong, sit down and be thankful for the many things that are going right

Gratitude improves relationships.

Saying thank you to the people you love and to the people who provides you services throughout the day makes you more appreciative of them and all they do for you. How many times have you taken for granted the small things your family or friends do for you? Or the lack of appreciation  to the person who serves you at the coffee shop? Or how many people are thankful for the garbage man? Who I can tell you deserve many more gratitude & thanks,  and A higher pay  if you ask me.

Gratitude helps us to learn and problem solve.

Practicing gratitude makes us enter a problem solving situation with a perspective of improvement and opportunity , no longer are you looking what went wrong but what am I grateful for learning and how can I avoid that for next time. You learn that every dark day has a silver lining, being grateful for our situations even if we don’t like something about it, it also allows us to be thankful for the opportunity to learn something new and to grow

Ok, I can hear a lot of you asking well how can I be more grateful more often…
Let’s start off simple,

  • Each day , first thing in the morning write down 10 things you are grateful for.
  • Reflect on each point you listed and feel the emotion and gratitude  if you can write next to the thing your grateful for how it makes you feel, happy joy peace , love,fun, abundant
  • Say thank you to everyone who provides you service
  • Before you go to bed write or say in your head thank you for all the things that went well in your day, and try and see the positive in situations you thought didn’t work out so well.
