Mastering Divine Discernment: Living Behind the Prison of the Mind

To master Divine Discernment, you must let go of all “you think” you know...

Once you have made up your mind you have narrowed your mind. You can’t see the forest for the trees. You have blocked your peripheral vision. Much like a horse with blinders, you cannot see the “Big Picture”. The mind will not allow it.

I’m reminded of the time not so long ago when I locked my keys in my car, or so I thought. I called AAA and a super nice guy showed up to unlock my car. Low and behold, my keys were not there. I dumped the entire contents of my purse out on the pavement, and guess what? They were in my purse all along! Even though I had searched through my purse several times, I could not see them. Why? I had already made up my mind they were in the car. I narrowed my field of vision.

When working with clients and asking questions of Spirit, I may expect a certain answer based on experience, but I don’t let “what I think” get in the way. I stay curious and open to receiving whatever Spirit wants me to know. Often, I’m completely surprised by the answers I receive. This is the key to Divine Discernment. It’s easy for me to stay curious and open. I’ve had years of experience working “blindly” with people remotely. If I don’t know anything, there is nothing in my head to get in the way. Anyone can hone this skill by practicing the repetitive exercises I share in “A Course in Discernment” workshop.

Sometimes it is hard to be completely open and neutral, especially when you are emotionally charged or attached; for instance, when it comes to your health and well-being or the health and well-being of a loved one. You have “skin in the game”. It is still possible, however. You may say before you ask Spirit for guidance in this situation, “I don’t care what the answer is, I just want to know the Truth or what is for Highest Best”.

You have the capacity to receive information beyond this world, from Higher Dimensions. You have the capacity to see a bigger picture. You have the capacity to tap into the Source of ALL knowledge. Most of you already know this from your own experience. Still, it’s easy to get sucked in by what others believe is true for several reasons stated below…

When you open yourself up to your Source for guidance and learn to trust it, you will never have to rely on what you see or hear to discern Truth (almost impossible now). Or, spend your time and energy doing tons of research to try to get to the Truth (also not a reliable method anymore). This is True Freedom!
FREEDOM FROM THE HUMAN MIND THAT KEEPS US IN A BIND!

As you embark on this journey into Divine Discernment, it is important to leave judgement behind. Judgment buries Truth. It drastically reduces our field of vision. Truthfully, how can we judge anything if we do not know how anything will turn out in ALL of space and time? We can see in our own lives, how something that looked terrible at the time ended up be the biggest blessing. I love this saying, “Everything works out in the end. If it hasn’t worked out, it is not the end.”

Can you be absolutely certain that what you are witnessing IS or IS NOT for Highest Best Good? GOD KNOWS what we could not possibly know from our limited human perspective.

We must be willing to change our mind as we open ourselves up to our God’s Mind. This is our greatest obstacle to growth and freedom individually and collectively.

Because we are ONE, as we change our mind, others have an opportunity to change theirs. No convincing is necessary. However, if someone is open, what you are “guided” to say may help break them out of the prison of their mind. This is how collective change happens…one mind at a time. It may seem like change is happening out there. When in reality, change is happening within and being extended “out there”.

I’m reminded of how inspiration works. I read this somewhere, however, the name is not coming to me right now. I get it’s True. You may have an “inspired idea”, something “you” didn’t think of. The thought just arrived. You have a choice of whether to act on this idea or not. However, the idea has been birthed. If you don’t act on it, someone will. Our thoughts are “Out There”. Even the inspired ones. So are our feelings…

Emotions can be polarizing. They can drag us around and attach us to belief systems. When enough people feel a certain way, an energetic morphic field is created. When created, it acts like a magnet, pulling others that are also emotionally charged the same way into the field. Morphic fields based in Love/Truth are beneficial. You might think of a fun “Flash Mob”. Those based in untruth/fear is how violent, destructive riots are created.

Sometimes our thoughts and feelings don’t even belong to us. For gifted empaths, it’s easy to absorb the energy of thoughts and emotions from others and get pulled into morphic fields. These gifted beings must learn how to protect their energy fields while they help others heal.

Some rely on how they feel emotionally to make a decision. This is not the same as your “gut feeling” or intuition. And it is not reliable and not what they are for. Our emotional reactions could have nothing to do with what is front of us. You could be reacting to a painful experience from the past. A sore spot that the present experience is rubbing against. For instance, maybe you grew up in lack. What you are hearing is provoking the fear of more lack. Your “EGO” guidance will help you make a “fear-based” choice. TRUTH will not argue with you. You have been given the FREE WILL to choose fear.

Thinking and remembering are one in the same and are based in past experience.

You must leave the past behind and move into the peaceful present to discern TRUTH.

The primary roles of emotions are to allow us to experience the richness of life AND to let us know when what “we are thinking” consciously or unconsciously is in alignment with Love or fear. You will know by how you feel. Are you afraid, stressed, depressed? Or, are you joyful, peaceful, grateful, and at ease?

Staying neutral and completely objective is the key to being a pure channel for Divine Discernment. Easier said than done...right? Even while you are working on processing hurts from the past, and bringing all unconscious thinking into the present, there is still a way to tap into TRUTH.

Our ego mind, in it’s over zealous attempt to protect us, hijacks all common sense when it is constantly fed fear. Breathe… Step outside of the ego-mind and the world. Leave the prison of your mind behind as you remember your natural way of knowing and being…

Another “Course in Discernment” workshop is coming in February 2025. This will be an in-person and live Zoom workshop. To learn more, click here.

Missing Link #3: Preview from the Evolution of Free Health Book Series

Today I’m sharing a preview of the 3rd Missing Link in the upcoming book, “The 7 Missing Links to Abundant & Sustainable Health”. One of my favorite Spirit Downloads of all time!  In case you missed the first 2, you can find them here:
https://www.foodrevelation.com/blog/

Enjoy!

This revelation began with a question from Spirit. That was something new! I was about to be given a huge piece of the “chronic dis-ease” puzzle. I heard, “Gail, have you ever wondered why you do not see a lot of dead animals laying around? They are dying all at time.”   And the answer came…

When the body’s natural balance is upset, life deteriorates; it becomes diseased – it decays. When soil is out of balance it cannot sustain life.   When the ocean and seas are out of balance, they cannot sustain life. When any “body” in nature is out of balance, it cannot sustain its life.

When life cannot be sustained, Mother Nature is very proficient at cleaning up after the dead and decaying. It’s a messy job, but someone has got to do it. I didn’t realize how messy death is, until I had the unique experience of cleaning up after the death of a loved one who died in his apartment and wasn’t found for weeks. What a stinky mess!

While some animals and birds will dine on decaying flesh, most like it fresh. Mother Nature’s primary waste management team consists of fungi, bacteria, and parasites…the smallest critters on earth. And, don’t they do a fine job! It is amazing how fast a dead squirrel or rabbit disappears from my backyard. The bigger the body, the longer it takes to decompose. All bodies in decay, plant or animal, provide perfect nourishment for new life. And the circle of life continues…

Have you ever wondered why an animal will abandon a sick baby or why a dying animal wants to be outside? They instinctively understand this natural process.

The balance between prey and predator is part of Nature’s Perfect Plan. Ironically, the human body’s natural predators are the smallest creations on earth.

As stated in Missing Link #2, the imbalance begins at the energetic level…the thought level. “Acidic Thoughts” result in an acidic body. Acid burns flesh and leads to deterioration. If the imbalance is not addressed at the energetic level, more dis-ease results…a louder message, and more pain.

Many treatments only “shoot the messenger” – They ease the pain by quieting the symptoms. By only focusing on easing the pain, the original message (the imbalance) never gets delivered, the fire is never put out, the corrections are never made and the body decays.

Chronic Dis-ease is just a slow path to death. All of life is in strive, thrive, or decay mode. Life does not stand still…. When we are in decay mode, we have signaled Mother Nature’s clean up team that a smorgasbord awaits. When we are in thrive mode, these critters will have to find sustenance elsewhere. And they do because all bodies in nature are striving for life – NOT death. The subject of the next missing link. Stay Tuned…

The critter is just a messenger. You could say it’s your friend, as it has come to save your life. While undesirable and sometimes painful, they are sending us an important message; a life-sustaining message. Without a symptom or a sign of dis-ease, how would we know? It’s up to us to receive the message and correct the imbalance.

We may have an expiration date, that’s open to debate, but we do not have to suffer years of painful, chronic dis-ease.

Finding our balance begins at the thought level and is supported by Mother Nature. The body is a reflection of what we eat and “Think”. Mother Nature has provided us with the perfect toolkit for maintenance and repair. These miraculous bodies we inhabit have been endowed with the power to rejuvenate and regenerate. Yes! If you have ever skinned a knee, broken a bone or healed from a surgery, you know already the body knows how to heal itself. When what we eat and think comes into alignment with health and well-being, the body is unstoppable until its usefulness is fulfilled.

Welcome to the Evolution of Free Health where we leave the prison of the mind and chronic dis-ease behind.

Clearing the Mind of What’s Running from Behind

Getting to the “Energetic Root of Dis-ease”

You have probably heard me say often: “Our health is a reflection of what we eat and “think”. Most importantly what we think”. This is the topic of the “2^nd Missing Link to Abundant and Sustainable Health” in the Evolution of Free Health book series I keep threatening to publish (still in progress). I will probably have it all shared piecemeal before in is actually bound in a book!

We now know everything is energy; the physical body…even a rock. The vibration of the energy determines the denseness of it. For instance, the energy of health is much lighter than the energy of illness. It is easy to feel that.

The most powerful energy of all is the “energy of the mind”. The thought is the first step in the creative process of bringing the unseen into our physical reality. A prescription drug doesn’t get approved by the FDA until it proves it “can” be more effective than the mind (placebo effect).

Nothing was ever created that wasn’t thought of first. Born of a Source Creator, we are creators. What we create is our individual and collective experience. We are one with all of creation and our creations affect the whole. If we want to change the world we must start changing our own experience…first.

We create matter (our physical experience) by what “matters” to us; it is where we direct our focus. What matters may be very unconscious. For instance; being right may really matter to us even if we are not aware of it.

We are always creating consciously or unconsciously. What we focus on determines how we feel. These feelings are powerful rocket fuel for our creations. What we cannot see but only feel is the energy of our emotions, but like the wind and electricity we can certainly see the effects of them in our life. They drag us around through one trauma/drama after another until we realize they are bringing amazing wisdom and contrary to what we may have been taught, they CAN be trusted.

Chronic pain or chronic illness is the body’s “physical” response to an energetic cause.

Emotions follow thoughts, not the other way around. Our emotions are the very barometer that measures the quality of our thoughts and creations. If our thoughts are happy and lovely, then we feel happy and lovely. If our thoughts are stressful and full of fear then we feel fearful and stressed out.

By learning to feel our emotions (something for many, were not allowed to do as a child), it is easy to gage where our thoughts are. Our body gives us huge clues if we will only pay attention.

Our body expands with happy thoughts. We can breathe deep. We can relax. Angry or fearful thoughts constrict the body. You may not be able to take a deep breathe or your belly may be in knots. I realized through my work that many have been constricted for so long they have forgotten how to breathe. Watch a baby breath and follow their lead. It may take a little practice if it has been awhile since you took a real deep belly breath. The skin on my scalp gets tight when I start to get aggravated (it contracts).

So how do we change our thinking so we can feel more happy and less stressed? We must first become aware of our thoughts if we ever have a chance of changing them. Depression (strong emotional pain) is a strong indicator that it is time to bring the thoughts running in the background that are running the show into the foreground; into the light of consciousness.

The hard knock of depression can be very painful. We may try to cover up the pain with pain-numbing drugs (legal or not and sometimes necessary in extreme circumstances). However, if we want to be happy and healthy, we must eventually open the door to the beliefs that are running us.

Depression was the “near death experience” that led me to an awakening. I was suicidal. What does “awaken” mean? It means to become aware. Aware of my thoughts. It meant leaving behind much of what I had learned to be and becoming aware of who I am; a Child of God…unlimited in nature. My awakening experience led me to the realization that all life experiences are uncovering our Truth and leading us into freedom.

“Life is a Revelation. We are being revealed along the way”.

What is running in the background of our (subconscious) is our early programming. What we’ve learned from our experience in the womb, through birth and our early years. We have formed beliefs even before we had words for them…for instance; many learn what love isn’t if they grew up without a good mirror reflecting what love is. With the understanding of a child we form our belief system and then we defend it with our life…literally.   Our life experiences are a reflection of what we believe about life and love.

I’ve come to realize from working with hundreds that one particular early event is “a catalyst to awakening”. When this event (long buried and forgotten) is brought into the light, a new understanding dawns. It is easy to see the patterns in life; the habits, the chronic thoughts all based on a story created in a mind of a child that was never true. With this new understanding comes compassion and forgiveness for ourselves and others as we begin to understand that everyone is reacting from learned experiences and doing the best they can with what they’ve learned.

We all want to be happy, healthy, prosperous and abundant (it’s our divine right), but for many, unconscious thinking opposes conscious intention. If you grew to believe you are “not enough” you will create lack.   If you believe deep down you are “unlovable” you will create circumstances to prove it. It is very easy to fall into the trap that we are just a victim of circumstance with no power to change unless we uncover the thoughts opposing our good.

The good news…we have the ability to bring into the light what is not serving our good and create a reality that does. If we can create what we don’t want, we can just as easily create what we do.

A process for bringing into the light what is ready to be seen was revealed to me a few years ago. It is the process I use for myself and clients when an emotional trigger is tripped.

Every time we have an experience that goes against an underlying belief it creates friction and triggers an emotion. It is the same emotion that was initially produced with the event that created it as a child.

The people that get on our “ever-last nerve” or “push or buttons” or the situations that inexplicably drive us crazy are all shining a light on an underlying belief (a judgement). If you are the one being tweaked then the one doing the tweaking is doing you a favor. You have been given an opportunity to look within and undercover the sore spot and heal it. The belief is always based in a judgment of self.

The most common belief, “I’m unworthy” (of happiness, success, love, abundance, etc.). We may resist doing this detective work for a bit or a long while (I can attest!), but we will not find peace until we answer the knock. This journal is a tool for opening and healing our hurts.

This “Emotional Thought Journal” will:

Help you identify chronic negative thoughts. For example, the “I can’t” and “I’m not” thoughts; “I can’t afford…”. “I’m not smart enough…”. Just like chronic illness these chronic thoughts are knocking hard on your door of awareness. This process will help you open the door.
Give you a safe space to allow your inner child to speak and feel without fear of judgment. Many have learned as children that showing emotions was not a good idea. Were you ever told as a child, “Big boys don’t cry” or “Stop crying before I give you something to cry about”? You may have pushed emotions down deep.
Help you gain compassion for yourself and others knowing you have done the best you can with what you were given (learned) and so has everyone else. Remember, “Hurt people – hurt people”.

Here is how the process works:
Get a journal that is convenient to have with you at all times. For men, this may mean one you can keep in your pocket.

On the front cover write:

Dear Thoughts and Emotions,
“I see you.”
“I feel you.”
“I honor you.”
“I love you”
You have my undivided attention.

Now that you have created the framework and are willing, you will become more aware of your thoughts. I promise. Pay attention to the chronic ones and the emotions they create. These are the ones you are going on a date with.

Try to define the emotion the thought is creating rather than generalizing. For instance, instead of calling it anger or stress, go deeper. How do you realy feel? Disappointed? Resentful? Jealous? Envious? Or, overwhelmed? You get the idea. You may not be in a position to dig into this in the moment. That’s okay. Just move to the next step…

Open the journal and enter a date and time when the thought and emotion came up. What event triggered it? Whisper a “thank you” to the person or event for the opportunity to heal. Make a date with it. Be sure you set the date where you can give at least 10 minutes of your undivided, uninterrupted attention to this part of you that wants to speak….alone.

You will notice much to your pleasant surprise, the thought will now leave you alone. It has been acknowledged and honored. If you break your date you will be reminded again.

When you meet with your date, take a few deep clearing breathes and settle into your heart space, just like you would for prayer or meditation and say out loud:

“You have my undivided attention. I am listening with open ears, an open mind and an open heart. Tell me a story…”

Take another deep clearing breath and wait patiently and quietly. Allow whatever comes up. The child may judge his or herself however you are just a willing observer. You’re only job is to listen and feel deeply. You may want to cry…then cry. You may want to kick and scream…then do it. You may want to make sure you are very alone for this so you do not feel any hesitation.

When you feel spent and empty (like after a good cry) you are done with the session and may be done period. This may talk longer than 10 minutes. Just feeling the feeling may be all that is needed to heal this sore spot or there may be more…

Note: It may take several dates before your inner child feels safe enough to speak. Don’t push. If you begin to feel frustrated or impatient, it is time to stop. Trust will develop as you continue the dates.

You will know when all is forgiven and healed. The trigger will be deactivated. The button is no longer pushed. You may have the random thought, but it will not hold the same charge.

I hope you find this helpful. If you have any questions or I can help in any way, please reach out.

In love and gratitude,

Gail

Revelations, Resolutions & Recipes

Welcome to 2018!
For the last 4 years I have chosen a word to encompass and infuse every goal for the new year. Last year it was “Expansion” and boy was it ever a year for that!

Creative expansion topped the list of all the ways I expanded. I started drawing again. Something I had not done since a child. I took me 9 months to birth the horse in my mind’s eye – I was very resistant…lol.

I started writing poetry (the latest is below) and published Christmas cards with Spiritual Artist Pete Taboada (who is an “Expander”) and Dallasunity.org.

I introduced the Evolution of Free Health video series LIVE on Facebook! And, I have a new YouTube Channel – “Intuitive Chef Gail Blair“. Talk about overcoming fear! The goal is to have the next book complete and published in the first quarter of 2018.

And, I became a Prayer Chaplain, something totally unexpected.

My WORD for 2018 did not show up until yesterday. It was a recent family crisis that brought it forward – here’s the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxkVCPuhuSA&t=2s. The word for this year is “REMEMBRANCE”. The remembrance of who I AM and who everyone is.

What ever is going on in our lives or in the world does not change the truth of who we all are at the very heart….

We are LOVE, Born of LOVE, Pure & Innocent at the root. In our human form we forget and then events help us remember. This is the year I look for the Truth in every one and every event.

The light of unconditional love is the mirror that others see themselves clearly in. “I am looking for love in all the wrong places” (In the seemingly unloving and unlovable). This is going to change everything in my world! And, I am grateful!

This is the poem that was sparked by the event:

The Tear

A New Year is once again about to be here. Reminding me that life is oblivious…It has no mission other than to support our every commission.

From the death of our Truth into life’s illusion, we experience the world and get caught up in delusion. A tear is created.

As I count my blessings, many and more. I am aware of a shift…something new to be thankful for.

The Holy Tear that tears us apart creates sacred space to mend every heart.

Without the rift we would remain forever adrift….to the Truth in our hearts that was there from the start.

Without pain and great sorrow there could be no great joy. Without anger and hate we would not know what love is about.

Without judgment, unconditional love has no meaning. We would have no reason for being.

Today I am grateful on the edge of a New Year for the river of love that flows through each tear. Filling every crevice, mending every part until the tear is no longer and we are one heart.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Wondering what to do with your New Year’s dinner left-overs? Here is a delicious solution:

New Year Savory Pie

(Gluten-Free, Vegan with Vegetarian option)

This is my all-time favorite savory pie! It is designed for leftovers, so feel free to use whatever is in the fridge or frozen vegetables.

The mushroom, leek and shallot sauce will be good with just about anything or add more milk for the best cream of mushroom soup ever!

The oat crust has a delicious flavor and rustic quality that is perfect for this savory pie. However, if you’re in a hurry, buy ready-made crust or just pour the filling into a casserole and top with cheese and bake….yummy!

Oat Pie Crust

1 ¼ cup of oat flour
¼ cup tapioca flour
6 tablespoon butter, cold (or Earth Balance for vegan option)
½ teaspoon sea salt
4 – 6 tablespoon cold water

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In large bowl, sift all dry ingredients together.

Chop butter in to cubes and cut into flour with fork until mixture is crumbly. Or use processor, pulsing a few times until butter is roughly incorporated. Mixture should resemble large crumbles.

Make a well in center of flour mix and add 4 tablespoons of water. Mix until dough holds together when squeezed. Add more water if needed 1 tablespoon at a time. If using a processor, dough is perfect when it starts to clean the sides of the bowl. Knead dough a few times and cut in half. Wrap dough in plastic and refrigerate while making filling.

Filling:

2 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter or Earth Balance Vegan butter
3 leeks, clean and chopped with a little of the green part
2 shallots, minced (or garlic)
1 cup button or baby bello mushrooms, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon fresh chopped rosemary or ½ tsp dried
1 teaspoon fresh chopped tarragon or ½ tsp dried (thyme works well too)
3 tablespoon oat or rice flour
¼ cup dry white wine (chardonnay is good)
1 ½ cup vegetable stock (I love Better Than Bouillon concentrate in a jar)
¾ cup So Delicious coconut milk beverage, unsweetened (or organic milk for vegetarian)
2 dashes fresh grated nutmeg (or ground)
1 teaspoon sea salt and cracked pepper or to taste
1 cup wild rice, prepared (quinoa works well too)
1 bunch collard greens, chopped (boil or sauté until just tender and still bright green)
1 ½ cup prepared black-eyed peas (canned is fine – just rinse first)
2 cups cooked and cubed butternut squash
1 cup shredded gruyere or Swiss (optional for vegetarian version)

Preheat large skillet over medium high. Add butter and oil and swirl to coat skillet. Add mushrooms, shallots and leeks to hot skillet with a dash of sea salt. Sauté for about 3 minutes then add herbs. Stir frequently until leeks are translucent and mushrooms have released their moisture (5-7 minutes total).

Add flour to mixture stirring for a minute until well blended. Deglaze pan with wine and simmer for a minute. Add broth and bring to high simmer. Gradually add milk stirring constantly until sauce is thickening. Stir in nutmeg. Add salt and pepper to taste and set aside.

In a very large bowl gently mix together, rice, collards, peas, squash and mushroom, leek mixture.

Remove dough from fridge roll out each half of dough on parchment or wax paper for a 9” pie crust or 10″ seasoned iron skillet. Invert one crust into pie plate or skillet and gently peel paper away. Press dough evenly into place and finish edges as desired. Reserve other half for top of pie.

Spread veggie mixture evenly on top of finished crust. Spread cheese if desired on top of veggie mixture. Gently lay rolled out dough on top and pinch the top and bottom edges of dough together to create a tight seal.

Brush top with milk and pierce a few times with a sharp knife to vent the steam. (Or you can do a tart with top open – freeze the other half of crust).

Bake at 400 degrees F for 15 minutes then reduce to 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until pie is golden and bubbly. Let pie rest for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Getting to the Message Behind the Thought….

“The greatest challenge to health are the subconscious thoughts that oppose it.”

The other day someone on Facebook reached out for help. Her question was basically, “How can I change negative beliefs into positive ones; retrain the brain to accept positivity and to not reject the very gifts that one is asking for?”

That’s my sign! This question prompted it was time to go more in depth with the Evolution of Free Health’s “2^nd Missing Link to Abundant Health” –

Our body is a reflection of what we eat and “think”.

In my work over the years, it has been made very clear, when it comes to abundant health, what we think is way more important than what we eat. It doesn’t matter how healthy the food is if our thoughts are toxic.

This explains why some people seem to do everything wrong (according to the experts) and never get sick and some do everything right and end up with chronic disease. Some people will say to this, “See! It doesn’t matter what you eat”. And, they would be right in a sense.

The most important factor in health is happiness. When the energy of what we eat and think is in alignment with the energy of happiness and health – health is the natural result. Chronic dis-ease is not natural.

Why is what we think so important? All bodies in nature thrive in perfect balance (the topic of The 3^rd Missing Link to Abundant Health). BTW, you can keep up with this evolving book on my Facebook page here https://www.facebook.com/evolutionoffreehealth/ .

Stress creates excess acid in the body. This creates a toxic condition. The body cannot release toxins, hydrant effectively or absorb nutrients when in an acidic state. The body becomes malnourished. The belly becomes fat from all the stored toxins it cannot safely release.

Science is now proving stress plays huge role in creating disease and our ability to heal. Don’t just take my word for it. I am so elated to finally see more and more mainstream conversation about what I know intuitively.

Read here what the former Surgeon General said about stress in the September 2017 issue of National Geographic: http://www.nationalgeographic.com/magazine/2017/09/three-questions-vivek-murthy/

Okay, you get the picture. So how do you change your negative thoughts into positive ones? Let me tell you a story…

Early in 2011, I was pushed to a breaking point. I lost my job 3 months after buying a house. I was depressed. My blood pressure was out of control. I was tired of the fungus I had been battling for 5 years. I was tired of being alone. I was tired of being broke. I was tired of being unhappy. I was tired ya’ll! Instead of giving up, I began to seriously search for the root of my unhappiness. I intuitively knew somehow it was locked inside me and so was the key.

My rock bottom (and I hear this all the time), ended up being the best thing that ever happened to me. It was the beginning of a magical journey and I am so grateful!

In late 2011, I started to become aware I was receiving divine guidance. I experienced an “awakening” (a higher awareness). I started receiving regular but random “pops” in my left ear. It took me little bit to figure out what this was. It was Spirit telling me to pay attention to my thoughts. I was often not aware of what I was thinking. Can you relate?

Let me just mention here, I’ve come to realize these miraculous bodies we have been given not only let us experience life they are also our “conduit” to Source. Spirit talks to me in many ways. I am especially fond of the pop in my ear. Pay attention to your body! Dis-ease is one way we receive messages (Louise Hayes who just passed brought this revelation to us many years ago with her book “You can Heal Your Life”.

Not too long ago I received another understanding of the message “pay attention to my thoughts” Guidance had sent. It was just a subtle shift, but a huge aha! I was being told to “give my thoughts attention”. I assumed guidance was just making me aware of my negative thinking so I could consciously discard it and replace it with what I wanted. NO! The thought wanted my full attention. It had something to say. It was bringing something to my awareness I was not aware of.

I’m getting this message as I write this. The best I could do at the time was just become of aware of my thinking. I was not ready yet to receive the messages my thoughts were sending. One step at a time…

Habits are created and broken in as little as 3 weeks. If replacing my negative thoughts with positive ones was all there was to creating a happy, abundant life I would be blissed out already!

My chronic negative thinking was not just a bad habit. It was bringing into focus what was running in the background of my subconscious mind.

It takes chronic knocking sometimes to get our attention. Many of us learned a long time ago not to pay attention to our thoughts or emotions. We were told to “pay attention” to the teacher. “Stop day dreaming”. “Thinking will get you in trouble”. “WHAT were you thinking?” We learned that thinking is BAD!

Many have also learned that “feeling” is bad. How many grew up with, “I’ll give you something to cry about”. Or, “Big boys don’t cry.” In a nutshell we’ve learned not to give our thoughts or emotions the time of day.

By the way, 2 of the greatest books and easiest reads I’ve run across on undoing our old programming are written by Don Miguel Ruiz – The Four Agreements and The Voice of Knowledge.

Just changing your thoughts will not create the change in your life you want if you still have thoughts and beliefs running in the background opposing your best intentions. These thoughts want a voice. They want your attention. Until you oblige, they will continue to knock on your door and control your journey like a backseat driver. If they don’t get your mental attention, they will knock on your physical body and create chronic dis-ease. Nothing gets our attention faster than physical pain.

The following are the steps I now take whenever I’m personally triggered or tweaked and my thoughts around the triggering event are constant and unrelenting. THAT’S MY SIGN something is happening “FOR ME”. It’s time to pay attention and receive the message.

These steps have led me to the realization that everything and I mean everything is serving a Good purpose no matter what it looks like on the surface. Each event contains a message and a gift. Often times it is bringing multiple gifts. The biggest gift – “The peace that surpasses all human understanding”.

Here is how it works for me. I invite you to give it a shot. What do you have to lose?

#1 – As soon as I recognize I am “feeling” anxious, upset, mad, frustrated or my body feels constricted in any way I STOP, BREATHE and check my “thinking”

#2 – Once I locate the thought that caused the feeling…

I acknowledge the thought. “I see you”, “I hear you”. This creates space for the thought. My “attention” respects and honors the thought. I allow the feeling that comes with the thought.
Then I ask of the thought the magical question. “I wonder what you are for?” “Tell me a story”.
I empty my mind and wait a few breaths for the response. Sometimes I get it right away. Sometimes it arrives later and when I least expect it. Sometimes I wake up with it or it arrives during meditation. I know I will get it. These days it’s happening sooner than later.

Often the answer leads me back to an experience in my life I misinterpreted with my level of understanding at the time. From my new perspective, I’m able to see the error in my judgment. And, often I will be shown the “back story” of the one I am judging with my thoughts according to my old understanding. This allows me compassionate understanding of that one’s actions.

#3 – Once I’ve given the thought and the associated feeling my undivided attention, I let it go. If the message doesn’t arrive spontaneously, I wait patiently. I am then and only then free to replace that thought. It’s important to replace the negative thought with a high vibrational one. Our positive thinking has the power to raise the vibration of our body, our health and the planet.

#4 – Creating a high vibrational thought can sometimes be tricky. Avoid using words that in anyway are related to what you don’t want. For instance: I want to be thin, implies you are unhappy with your weight. It puts the focus on what you don’t want. Avoid using sentences that include “n’t” words like can’t and don’t. They also put the focus on what you don’t want.

Instead try this – “I am so grateful for this miraculous body that knows how to regulate every system”. Notice this is an affirmation (affirming what already is). And, I always start every affirmation with “I am so grateful”. Gratitude is one of the most powerful actions for change available to us.

Sometimes, none of the above works for me. I just want to jump in the boat with my churning thoughts and go on a turbulent ride. It doesn’t take me long to tire of it though. Even while going down the river I’m aware I will have to get out of the boat if I want to receive the message and uncover the highest solution.

Experience with this process has grown my faith. I know I will receive the answer as I have asked and it will be a beautiful thing.

I highly recommended getting into the mindset that life is always happening FOR YOU – Not to you. This alone puts you in the driver’s seat. If life is happening to you, you are just a hapless victim of circumstance with no control over outcomes. In this state of mind you are helpless to change anything.

When you know life is happening for you, you are looking for the “What fors”. Your eyes are wide open to messages, synergy and guidance. You let life lead you and teach you. Life is our best teacher.

So how do you know when you have received the message or solution?

When chronic thinking around an event stops. How many times have you not been able to stop thinking about something? It keeps you up at night. It interrupts your peace? Spirit is sending you the strong message – “You do not have the message yet” or “This situation is not resolved”. From my experience, the solution often requires forgiveness; forgiveness for my judgment.
You are filled with an expansive sense of peace. You can breathe freely and deeply even when you “think” of the person, place, or thing that led to your unrest.

I know some of this you have heard before. I hope you got something new for yourself or to share. I am always here for you. Let me know if you have any questions about this topic or if I can help in any way. The next blog will be on “Making a Date with Emotions” – Stay Tuned….

Here’s to your Joy, Peace, LOVE & Health!
