hello

I haven't posted on this thread in a long while because I've just been getting on with working on myself but today I felt I wanted to ask if you could do any corrections to heal my heart? I have been working really hard both internally and externally but it seems like I get led to the edge of my dreams and then everything gets taken away and crumbles and I'm left broken hearted and wondering what's going on. So any help would be gratefully received. thank you.

Hi Sunshine,

I have gratefully made the CEM corrections for the issues concerning your dissappointments, but you must now carry on the work.

As insane as it sounds, feeling broken hearted, is a choice. An attitude of gratitude is infinitely more successful in producing desired results than any other.

What seems challenging at first is staying focused on gratitude when what you think you wanted didn't "show up" in the way you expected or not at all (yet). When you begin to have faith in your own creations, you begin to understand with joy, that what is "showing up" is exactly what you have created, and the opportunity for success is built right into this exact experience you created.

Never lose faith in your immense power to manifest your desires. The latin root word for desire is..."of the spirit". You are a spiritual being, with a physical body a temple which makes you have the opportunity to be a Human BEING. Do not confuse a Human Being, with a Human doing.

What you see in the outer world in this moment is the result of past "Being". There is nothing to "DO" with what you already see, which is what you have already created. ("Being" in this case meaning, what one thinks and feels in any given moment, the moment of NOW).

NOW being the only point of power. NOW being the only opportunity which allows creation and where ones opportunity to make a choice is made.

Never give up, Perservere, and use the point of Power in the NOW to choose to see, feel, and breathe Gratitude no matter what "shows up" in your outer world. Do not allow, for too long anyway, to feel heart broken. Tears are wonderful for releasing tension, anxiety, dissappointment etc., but do not forget that you can change your focus and concentration immediately to Gratitude.

Life is too short to allow your State of Mind to suffer for too long. Raise your body vibration by putting a smile on your face, and raise your consciousness by feeling Gratitude. It's all Love in the end.

Peace is the result of knowing that all there is, is Love.

I'm so happy you posted Sunshine!

Fear of moving forward

Hi Grace and all,
Thanks. Yes, fear has definitely been in my field esp. in the first chakra: safety, being able to support myself, and doing it on my own. My arm/hand is getting steadily better and the fear is subsiding but not gone. At the same time there seem to be many opportunities coming my way that I feel overwelmed by. I realize my current way is not bringing in enough for me to live on, but brings much passion as well as exhaustion because of the traveling.

This trip to Brazil, while going to John of God, is also a shamanic journey to see if I will be teaching a shamanic workshop with a group. This has some good potential for making money and staying in Brazil for part of the year. I've never been before so I don't know how I will like it.

I have finished my training in Somatic Experiencing and will begin to give sessions at Harbin in the future. I am taking a workshop on how to give workshops and make money so there are many ideas flying around my head about what to present. I thought about working with veterans but although I would love to do this, I don't have a strong connection or alliance with them. I also thought about working with women who have been abused but don't have a clear view on how to contact them. In October a colleague and I will be giving a paper at a Body psychologist conference on Trauma Healing in the Water.

After my trip to Brazil I have a 7 week trip to New York, Italy, Germany to visit a friend, Switzerland, and back to New York, teaching 5 classes almost back to back. This brings up a lot of fear for me and wonder if I can actually manage this.

These all feel like lifetimes of work when I am in a state of weakness and just coming out of exhaustion. I feel like I need to focus on one and let go of so much travel, much as I love it.

In the months of Jan and Feb when I have been home at Harbin there has been very little work so I have felt that I need to travel to make money. And this puts me into a double bind of finding the energy to do that.

Any hits anyone gets from this I am more than open to hearing.

In the next message I will tell you about Harbin.

Harbin Hot Springs

Harbin has been a community/business since 1975. You can look us up at Harbin Hot Springs - Retreat & Workshop Center. This is where aquatic bodywork was birthed and the reason I moved here in 1996. There are 6 warm pools to work in and a HOT pool (usually around 113 degrees F) 2 cold plunges (around 55F) and a steam and dry sauna. We have a restaurant, a cafe in the summer, a health food store and a garden. There are 3 workshop facilities and a temple. Yoga and dance are big here: 3 yoga classes every day and 2 to 3 dances every week. Many people compare Harbin to Esalen on the coast south of Monterey. I think of Esalen as the the heady psychology cousin and Harbin the body cousin. Both are on sacred native American land. We have sweats in the winter to carry on the tradition of the native ceremonies. We have a ministers program and at this time we have 29 ordained ministers living here through the New Age Church of Being. The main church here is the Heart Consciousness Church that runs the business of being a retreat center. All very complicated as our founder has been a Harvard business person and part of the Human Potential Movement of the 70's.

There are about 150-170 residents who live and work here. We are an oligarchy run by 6 people making most of the decisions which is great when they make decisions which I like and can go in the other direction as well. I'm still here so they have made mostly good decisions for me. On the good side it keeps discussions to a minimum and things running mostly smoothly. (this said with a little tongue in cheek)

Check out the web site. We are located about 2 1/2 hours north of San Francisco above the Napa Valley.

Thanks, Inika, for taking the time to write a little about Harbin! I truly appreciate it. You titled your next to last post above "Fear of moving forward". IMO (which I hope you don't mind me giving), you can't move backward and it doesn't make sense to stay where you are, so you don't really have a choice, right? What I try to do when I have to make a change is to face it with strength and joy. I try to feel kind of like Superman, where I look at my choices and then move ahead on the path I choose with determination and confidence, keeping my thoughts on the positive outcome and trying to anticipate any obstacles by planning on how I would deal with them if they arise. Focus on the positives that you know are there, helping others and love of travel. Let the rest go. Get that feeling of exhiliration that you would get from jumping in the cold pool from the hot tub and carry that with you. Get excited!

I have a couple of thoughts about moving ahead with making money, too. You mention that you don't have a strong connection or alliance with veterans. Ha! You share your humanity. I know you have compassion for their suffering and an intellectual knowledge of the fears and horrors that they have faced. Bring that to the table along with your love and you will develop the strong connection and alliance with your willingness to help.

Abused women can be found in bars, AA meetings, drug rehab centers, abused women shelters, grocery stores, etc. Put some flyers up in those places, hand out cards, get the message out that you are there to help. There is no strength in fear. Strength comes from self-confidence, joy, gratitude, and love, like Grace keeps reminding us. Be strong! Keep moving forward on the path that you are creating while focusing on the positive outcome that you want for yourself and you can't go wrong. Hope that helps!

Thanks Bill for your input

You are totally right about moving forward and that I have no choice. I just have to figure out which way to jump. And I am totally excited and passionate about my work, but it's not so great for my body and that is what I need to modify.

I just realized another thing about Harbin and Lake County where I live: there is a current of "lack mentality" here at Harbin where people are paid a minimum wage or like me are independent contractors without health insurance. We have lots of perks such as reduced rates for workshops and using the pools as much as we'd like, and a great "free box" but most people are at or just above the poverty level. You don't need much to live here, but you have to stay here!

The statistics for Lake County are: the 4th poorest county in CA and the 14th poorest county in the US. This makes me think I am pushing the river to make a good living here.

On the good side we have the cleanest air and purest water in the state. I think Lake Co. is a wonderful secret: no traffic, hills and mountains all around, lakes and hot springs....

Anyway, that's my Harbin story.

Harbin still sounds like a great place to live. I am syncing more and more towards the natural surroundings and away from the big circus of Chicago.

How does that arm feel now?

I love Lake County. It was definitely one of the best places I've lived as far as scenic beauty is concerned. We used to do quite well selling crafts at the Lake County fair every year, though, compared to some of the wealthier counties. The Mendocino coast is an hour and a half to 2 hours away from you and is very beautiful as well. You might want to think about hooking up with some healers over in Mendocino and Ft. Bragg and seeing what the market is like. I think there's a thriving business over there from what I saw 15 years or more ago. Sonoma county seems to be another hotbed of alternative medicine. There might be too much competition there, though. I know a person used to be able to find a place out towards Guerneville for not too much money. Not sure if that still holds true.
I wonder if any of the resorts on the lake would be interested in having you do workshops for their guests on occasion. I know there's a Trends West resort over on the Nice side and Konocti Inn or Konocti Harbor Inn or whatever it's called has a pretty spendy clientele.
Anyway, I'm sure the future has nothing but brightness waiting for you. Keep your head up and your thoughts on the good stuff!

Hi Grace

I know is been awhile since I post but I really want to say to grace how grateful I am right now for what you been teaching me. I read a post you wrote to Sunshine and I suddenly felt better. I was feeling angry and heart broken about Jonathan. Now i feel grateful that he's gone. I have faith that I'll find love soon. First I need to Love myself and find more about ME. Yeah I'm lost and confused but I have HOPE! when I'm down I know is Temporary and not forever. When I given up somehow I shift and I'm motivated again. I find things to be happy about and if I can't find happiness I just Pray. I notice that I can't lose hope and I can't stop believing. Things are better for me in the since that i have tools now that I can use when things aren't going so well. The best is visualizing my littlest one Mi Vida, there's somethings so special about her that's so gratifying to my soul. It hasn't been an easy year but I'm stronger than I was before. Thank you So much again from the bottom of my heart!!

Love and Gratitude

Hello Grace!

First, Congratulations on your win!!! You are amazing always!!
I've been debating with myself about moving to California to pursue music but just not sure yet if I should. Was curious to see what you test on that I also have unnecessary anxiety and fear over little things like eating and cooking. I would greatly appreciate any help, thank you sooo much!!!

[Aaron]

Congratulations Grace!

I've waited over 24 hours for official details on the tournament so I'll just
congratulate you now Grace! Don't hold me in suspense
too long!

Hi Yari!

You are most definitely stronger!!

I would like for all to know that Yari has worked very hard on raising her consciousness, and I am a complete witness to this, as she lives here in my hometown. I have never seen anyone "climb back on the horse" with such sheer determination after so many let downs!! Yari you are a wonder~woman and I love you!!

Hi Christine!

California does not test strong for you. I would be very interested in what you think about Nashville, Tennessee. Read up on the music industry over there and feel/think about it. It does not mean you have to sing Country. It still tests very strong for you to follow a music career!

Hi AAron,

It doesn't matter what you say on this thread, whenever you post, it puts a big smile on my face!!

I won Gold in Kumite!

@Grace

Awesome Grace - thank you!

Pamela mentioned you were going to a tournament but I didn't see
any details and then I saw Christine post a congratulations here.

Of course when Pamela mentioned it, I already felt what the outcome
was going to be! lol

Thanks again for posting that pic!
