We all KNOW when we are being abused by the way we feel--BUT--we don't always believe we do NOT deserve to be mistreated.

Sometimes, because abuse has been our norm, we simply don't recognize narcissistic abuse as a real 'thing'.

When we have been conditioned to NOT see the self--and to NOT honor the self--we don't, not because we don't want to, but because we DO NOT know how to honor the self--or believe we have the RIGHT to.

We may want to set a boundary--but may be at a loss as to how--or we fear what might happen if we do set a boundary.

This codependency thing is NO joke!

It kills our souls, our minds, our bodies.

It keeps us attracting narcissistic abuse and blind as to how or why we are unable to gain the love we seek.

It can destroy families--cause wars between countries--and has the potential to keep man asleep FOREVER.

Codependency is as dangerous as a drug--but--at least with drugs and alcohol you can SEE and TOUCH the problem.

Codependency--can NOT be seen or touched.

It is a way...

If it was easy to have healthy balanced relationships, everyone we know would be doing it, including ourselves.

The reality is, people are human, most of them are asleep to some degree, and all of us have subconscious wounds we carry, whether we are aware of them or not. This means that when we meet someone, it is HIGHLY unrealistic to presume that they will never hurt our feelings, say something that will piss us off, or meet every one of our needs every time we have a need that need to gets met. It is just as unrealistic to presume we will not offend someone we care about, no matter how hard we try.

If we want to find relationships that work, then we have to start by being FAIR. We aren’t perfect and neither is anyone else. We don’t read minds and neither do most people we meet, although often, we expect people to know precisely what we need even if we don’t have a clue as to what that is.

If we have never felt loved, as adults, we may think that love should play...

Love is a choice and a state of being.

Love is an action word as it reflects a nonphysical state that is acted upon by a physical being.

To help us understand what love truly is, it helps to rest one’s mind on the simplicity that abounds in nature.

It is so easy to neglect the self, especially if you have never felt valued, loved, protected, nurtured and enough.

BUT—as grown ass adults, it is time to STOP making excuses for why we continue to perpetuate NOT taking care of the self.

This weekend, make sure to take time out to LOVE you. That might mean going to bed an hour early, reading a book, taking a bath, or making yourself some chicken soup. It might mean meditating, journaling, or watching that movie you’ve been meaning to watch, or it might mean finally catching that Yoga class you’ve been meaning to try out.

Inside all of us is a KNOWING.

We know what we need and what we want, but when we are in the habit of IGNORING what we KNOW to be true, our actions follow suit, our life sucks, we feel like crap, and we fall into ruts that grow deeper each passing day.

This weekend make it a point to do something you’ve been meaning to do. FINALLY listen to that KNOWING and HONOR YOU!

Have you known what you wanted...

Love is a choice and a state of being.

Love is an action word as it reflects a nonphysical state that is acted upon by a physical being.

To help us understand what love truly is, it helps to rest one’s mind on the simplicity that abounds in nature.

Today, focus your attention on the beauty of a single flower. Study it. Watch it. Imagine what it feels like to be a single rose or sunflower in a garden of many in a world it does not worry about, unconcerned with what the other sunflowers or roses think.

Do what you can to imagine and connect on a vibrational level to the absolute stillness of that flower.

Just for a few moments, drop your own mind. Drop your thoughts. Drop your worries over your past wounding experiences. Drop your worry and connect to the infinite streams of abundance that is always--and was always about you.

Just for a few moments, become still of mind and milk the experience of love. Milk the feeling of pure acceptance, peace, and stillness that is love.

Learning to...

Life will drag you through the mill, that is for sure.

It is difficult to remember that LIFE is a CLASSROOM and we are here to LEARN all we can before our final physical transformation.

Gratitude is a LIFE GIVING energy and the more grateful we can FEEL in our everyday lives, the LESS we notice B/S.

The more we MILK a sense of WONDER for our MIRACULOUS body, brain, consciousness and connection to all that is, the more we raise our FREQUENCIES and the more we resonate with ABUNDANCE!.

Isn’t it awesome to know that in ANY given moment, we can LEARN TO FLOW OUR FOCUS towards ANY idea or thought and SHIFT our attention from LACK to ABUNDNANCE, and from FEAR to LOVE?

No matter who crappy our day, within us is the POWER to be thankful and GRATEFUL for something and when we CHOOSE of our FREE WILL to CONTROL our stream of consciousness, in that moment, we are MOLDING our FATE.

I think this is something to be TOTALLY GRATEFUL for.

How has GRATITUDE helped improve your life?

It is so easy to forget that within ever cell of our being is the same galactic stuff that makes up the STARS in our sky!

You are LIGHT Dear One!

At your atomic core, you, me, everyone, and everything is LIGHT.

So why is there so much chaos on the playing field of people’s minds?

Why does there seem to be so much fear on our planet?

Why can’t we seem to find the love we seek and instead find unpleasantness no matter how hard we try?

Ahh…Dear Ones…never forget you are both a DIVINE SPIRIT and a HUMAN BEING.

You have come to MASTER the limitations of the survival mechanisms that are the DEFAULT settings of man.

You have come to CHOOSE the LIGHT and to DELIBERATELY mold your CONSCIOUSNESS through the POWER of thought and by way of your DIVINE FREE WILL.

You have come to REALIZE that the mind is both conscious and unconscious at the same time, it is both dead and alive as well.

Dead and alive?

WTF?

Yes, the mind is programmable and all experiences from childhood have been...

Prayers for Victims and Family Impacted by the Coronavirus of 2020

While meditating today, I began envisioning a friend whom I love walking out of the hospital healed, fully recovered, and happy.

Here on Long Island, my family and I know and love a number of those impacted by the Coronavirus. The challenges are real. The emotions are strong and the pull to try and control something I cannot control keeps me on my toes.

Wishing to be a part of the solution rather than the problem, I decided to begin a Prayer Chain for anyone who wishes to offer the names of a loved one they would like me, my family, and those willing to participate to pray for.
