June 16, 2019 Inner Peace Through Finding Everything Interesting


We are human sorting machines walking through life putting everything we see hear and experience into baskets, “I like this”, “I don’t like this” “This is good”  “This is bad”.  Once we’ve figured out if something is good or bad or if we like it or don’t like it , we let it go and stop really observing or exploring it further.  What if we took a break from this sorting?  What would happen if instead of good, bad, right, wrong, like, dislike we just found everything to be interesting?

When I’m coaching or taking clients through my Core Belief Transformation process or even in Past Life Regressions and Future Life Progressions I find myself sitting without judgement just finding everything so very interesting.  This allows me to explore anything in a deeper way and begin to find what purpose it may serve and what opportunities might exist to help the client. 

For example, when in a Core Belief session we go back to a traumatic event in a clients life perhaps watching a father explode with rage and become verbally abusive towards his family I could understandably view this as terrible.  But that wouldn’t help the client.  Instead I find it incredibly interesting and with the clients help we explore what’s going on here.  What triggered this fight or flight response?   What is the fear or pain present in this father?  Isn’t it interesting that he’s turned his happiness and ability to be at peace over to his five year old daughter.  This sort of exploration often reveals truths the client had never considered before and slowly the lie that this fathers out burst had to do with the clients being unlovable, not worthy or not enough begins to melt away.

When we find something interesting, we can take a closer look and find the gift or blessing in any situation.  If we label it as awful, evil, despicable it is very difficult to pull it in close enough to really observe.  It’s like seeing an object on the sidewalk, once you’ve labeled it as dog poop you’re not going to touch it.  But if you find it interesting you might pick it up and pull it apart and find the diamond ring the dog had swallowed. 

I use this same “Isn’t this Interesting” view in my own life and it helps me avoid thoughts that are toxic to my happiness that come from judgements.  When I start thinking the “isn’t it awful” thoughts it’s really hard to stay in happiness, joy, love and gratitude.  If instead I’m finding it interesting I can usually stay in those higher vibrating emotional states.  

For example: if I wave at a friend, and he doesn’t wave back, I can find it interesting.  In that state of curiosity without judgement I’m more apt to make sure the friend actually saw me and to engage the friend in a conversation of discovery.  If I’m in the “isn’t this awful” mind set, I’ll start asking myself what I’ve done to cause this and before you know it I’m down a rabbit hole of negative self talk and story making that takes me away from my happiness and probably isn’t true at all. 

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is just for the next few hours, try finding everything interesting.  First off, you may be surprised by your constant desire to judge and sort your reality into the good and bad baskets.  Soon you will come to see how fascinating your world really is and you may discover the diamonds hidden all around you.  Let me know what happens.

June 9, 2019 - Ho’oponopono The Ancient Hawaiian Prayer of Forgiveness

Here is a powerful prayer from the Ancient Hawaiians that can create miracles in your life.  The Kahuna's believe that the energy you put out into the world comes back to you and whatever energy shows up in your world is the consequence of what you've sent out.  This prayer is about shifting the energy you put out to gratitude and love. Here is the prayer and it's four simple steps to create a powerful energy that transforms your world. Step 1: Repentance – I’M SORRY End the blame and claim responsibility for everything. You are responsible for everything in your mind. Once you realize that, it is only natural to feel sorry. This realization can hurt and you may resist accepting responsibility for things that look like they are happening outside off yourself. But everything on the outside is a reflection of something happening on the inside. Step 2: Ask Forgiveness – PLEASE FORGIVE ME This message may be to the one you’re in conflict with or to yo

June 2, 2019 - A Quick Guide To Tapping

] A Quick Guide To Tapping Emotional Freedom Techniques are based on Thought Field Technology or the Callahan method developed more than three decades ago by a psychiatrist who discovered it as a way to heal phobias and troubling emotional states.  It was a complex series of tapping different sequences of acupressure points for different issues and took a long time to really learn.  One of his students, an engineer by the name of Gary Craig put his engineering mind to this process and came up with a dramatic simplification.  Craig’s process is called Emotional Freedom Techniques or EFT and simply involves tapping every one of Callahan’s points for every single issue.  This means as you do this work it will be far easier than the Callahan Method but you will tap many spots where nothing at all happens.  We start with a set up statement that you repeat three times out loud while tapping the karate chop point on either of your hands with the fingers of your other hand.  The

August 11, 2019 Past Life Regression Test

Is your soul nudging you to explore your past lives?   Is there a lesson you learned in a previous life that you need to remember right now?   Do you have a connection to a person or place or culture that feels deep and profound like it goes beyond this life? Perhaps it’s time to explore your past lives.   You may have heard the often quoted phrase that “those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it”   What if that is true for our own past lives? I’ve put together a little just for fun test to see if you’re being called to explore your past lives. These are simple yes or no questions.   Circle the ones that are a yes then add them up and we’ll see what that means. 1. Have you ever visited a place for the first time, yet felt like you had been there before? 2. Do you have a strong draw to a culture, religion, ethnicity that is not your own? 3. Are there certain foods that absolutely repulse you without any logical reason? 4. Have you ever been
