Recently I’ve been reading articles that say there’s no such thing as work-life balance anymore. In fact, what’s reported as optimal is a type of mashing of the two. So there’s a flow back and forth between work and the needs at home. That’s supposed to be the best we can expect from our modern style of work life. While in theory it sounds like it might work, I’m not convinced that it is. Especially when you consider Americans are known workaholics and many don’t take all their … [Read more...]
Are You Feeling Rejected?
Rejection can hurt, especially when we take feedback, reactivity, and other unpleasant behavior from others personally. Anyone that puts their gifts out for the world to judge will at one time or another feel rejection. When you create something new, people judge and reject what they don’t understand. It doesn’t have to trip you up because you can choose differently. If you find yourself feeling rejected in any area of your life, then this Alignment Process movie Amadeus (Milos Forman, 1982) may … [Read more...]
How To Make A Shift By Watching Movies
In 2006, we discovered that movies could be a powerful tool for lasting energetic change. Sue-Anne had been a Resonance Repatterning practitioner for many years with a global client base. We utilized her abilities to begin our own change work by reworking the emotional patterns we saw in popular movies. We decided to become proxies for anyone that wanted to benefit from our change efforts. Over several years of practice, we confirmed that it worked as intended and began utilizing these movies in … [Read more...]
Diversity Creates A Beautiful Mosaic
The path to peace of mind is a journey of self discovery to understand the internal conflict that perpetuates chaos within. Only when we can relieve this internal conflict will we begin to experience peace of mind. Fortunately, we all have everyday teachers in our communities that perfectly reflect our unique individual curriculum. People whose ideas and ways of living that really annoy us provide insights to our own intolerance. As the Dalai Lama says, “In the practice of tolerance, one's … [Read more...]
Practice Loving Completely
The people we spend our lives with day in and day out usually reflect facets within ourselves. It doesn’t matter if they’re loved ones, co-workers, or regular customers. If we feel a charge from them over and over again it’s usually a blessing in disguise trying to teach us about a facet within us. The people in our lives can be the most amazing teachers - if you let them. They can also teach you to love completely even if you don’t completely understand them. When you begin consciously … [Read more...]
Crossing Your Threshold of Change
Our minds do not like change, this isn’t a new revelation. If we left all life decisions to our rational thinking we wouldn’t see much change or innovation in the world. According to famed physicist, Erwin Schrodinger, life is always in the process of seeking order found in the external environment. He believed that life is dependent upon the balance between efficiency of patterns and entropy (i.e., loss of pattern). Perhaps this is why our thinking becomes rigid and fearful of any change. Our … [Read more...]
How To Be A Compassionate Listener
Depending on your family or cultural norms, stuffing your emotions can be the proper way to behave; there might be great pressure to prevent you from allowing your emotions to flow. When you freeze your emotions long enough, it can be hard to get in touch with how you really feel, and this creates another set of challenges. Eventually, these emotions need to be released. Many times they can be out of proportion to what is occurring. If you notice yourself emotionally over-reacting to a … [Read more...]
Are You Aligned With Your Brilliance?
Do you feel like you’ve found your life’s calling and have been moving in that direction for a number of years? Are you passionate about what you do yet for some reason, you can’t seem to connect with the abundance you expected? Do you recognize your own mastery? If you’re unable to recognize your own unique gifts, your audience can’t either. This usually means you’re not aligned with your brilliance. This can be evident if you don’t believe you’re at the mastery level or even more common – you … [Read more...]
An Example of Power in a Culture of Force
In these modern times, we seem to be living in a culture of perpetual force. It’s a way of living that has become so prevalent that it just seems normal. We see numerous examples in business and our current political process. Force is a strategy that seeks a win/lose outcome. It’s expedient and usually backed up with the justification of “making the tough choices”. When one form of force doesn’t work, we escalate our tactics, creating another forceful reaction. Force commonly results in … [Read more...]
Human Nature vs. Grace
We spend the majority of our lives, eating, sleeping, releasing, and preparing to do it all again. These activities consume our days as they do all animals on our planet. At times, we get so caught up in these routines that we forget our unique ability to experience grace. We miss the beauty that’s all around, asking us to remember our choice between our animal nature and grace. This choice separates us from the animals and reminds us of our true human potential. Sometimes we come to this … [Read more...]
