"You can interfere with the normal rhythm of your heart, lungs, and other organs by worry, anxiety, and fear. Feed your subconscious with thoughts of harmony, health, and peace, and all the functions of your body will become normal again." - Joseph Murphy

Tips of the day

DEEP BREATHING-be aware of your breath.  Most people breath from the chest and not the core.  MEDITATION-stilling the mind, sit where you will not be disturbed or you could do walking meditation as well, close the eyes, focusing at the point between the eyebrows - the 3rd eye, let the breath be normal and use the breath as your focus, inhale, exhale, focus on each of these movements.  If you have thoughts enter your mind, which everyone does, go back to the breath.  Everyone needs there quiet time, force it on yourself and your family, it is essential in this life.  Take the time to connect with the Infinite and ground yourself. 

Peace and Blessings.

Beautiful pre-fall day here in LA...

"All frustration is due to unfulfilled desires. If you dwell on obstacles, delays, and difficulties, your subconscious mind responds accordingly, and you are blocking your own good." - Joseph Murphy (obviously I'm a fan)

I just started my Pilates teacher training, wow, incredible for the body/posture.  Just wait until I start doing my student teacher hours over the next couple of months...we will all have great alignment.

Some Inspiring Words and the Solar Plexus Chakra

"Whatever you impress on your subconscious mind is expressed on the screen of space as conditions, experiences, and events. Therefore, you should carefully watch all ideas and thoughts entertained in your conscious mind." 

"You can build radiant health, success and happiness by the thoughts you think in the hidden studio of your mind."
 
"Watch your thoughts.  Every thought accepted as true is sent by your brain to your solar plexus - your abdominal brain - and is brought into your world as a reality."

All quotes by Joseph Murphy. 

Note:  Solar Plexus chakra is center of personal power, ambition, desire and emotion.  Feelings are processed through this chakra, which is where the term "gut feeling" comes from.  This is the point of "centering".  The gemstones that work on balancing this chakra include Citrine, Ametrine(which is Citrine and Amethyst), Amber, Tiger's Eye and Beryl.  The color associated with this chakra is yellow to balance.  In Aromatherapy, Neroli can be used in massage on this point.  If this chakra is out of balance, you can feel drained, have trouble concentrating, insomnia, falling asleep during the day, have difficulty meditating by either being distracted or nodding off.  A balanced, healthy third chakra can help one become easily adapted to any situation.  Also when this chakra is healthy your self-esteem is healthy, you also are less sensitive to criticism and care for yourself and can nuture others.  (Information taken from the book Crystal Chakra Healing by Philip Permutt). 

Fall is on it's way...

Fall is on it's way, the fall equinox...time for cleaning body, mind and soul.  The weather in LA and some other areas may be a bit warm and down right hot but fall is in the air.  Time for New Beginnings, time for change.  With fall coming, I am working on some for wonderful earthy colors and materials, using reds such as healing Coral known as "the garden of the sea".  Some healing properties of Coral are symbolizing joy and happiness, it enables the wearer to enjoy life.  The red or white varieties of coral have been useful in healing mental disease as well as help with anemia.  The Hopi and Zuni tribes use this as one of the four element stones on the Road of life...the others are jet, abalone and turquoise.  And, yes, I will be creating a necklace with those stones.  Coral can also guard against accidents, violence and sterility.  Coral can also quite the emotions and bring peace within.  Also, lots of Citrine, Amber, Moldavite, and Taqua nuts from the Amazon. 

Peace and Blessings. 

Creativity is only blocked by one's ego.  Kick that ego to the curb today...NOW and live your life's passion.
