Affirmations for blessings of wealth, health, and manifesting goals

Hypnobabies training for Kai's birth helped me to appreciate the importance of giving the egoic mind something to chew on while the subconcious mind could come forth and do the work of being in the experience.  These affirmations are meant to empower you from where you are in your life within the present moment, and to help you recognize the abundance and opportunities all around you.  To help you live a life that is full of goodness and peace.

The Gift of Yourself

Lately I've been overly aware of how bombarded we are with society's messages that Christmas will be truly special if we give the right gifts or have the perfect decorations to go with perfect tree!  Seriously?!  There has to be more to the holidays than tacky decorations we'd never have out any other time of the year, expensive gadgets, and dead pine trees!  So what is the true meaning behind the Holiday Season in these modern times?  Aside from religious ideas, some people would say the holidays are a time to take a break from usual work routine to spend time with loved ones and friends.  Some would say it's about sending out a ton of holiday cards to people we haven't seen in forever to wish blessings for the upcoming year.  And others would say its about the gifts. Or maybe its all of the above. But what do all of these things have in common?  What is the underlying essence behind all of these acts?  The attempt to connect truly and deeply with another person.  What a beautiful opportunity we have.  Nationally we have a holiday where some of us are given the time off from our daily routines to reconnect with friends and family in so many ways. The acts of giving and receiving have the potential to compliment and enhance relationships through displaying our thoughtfulness and commitment to one another.  It also allows us to take the time and energy to show people how much we love and appreciate them.  However, as wonderful as gifts can be, the giving and receiving of physical objects are only scratching the surface of our capacity for deeper and more meaningful connection.  True connection are the gifts of ourselves in thoughtfulness, attention, understanding, participation, energy and love. Honor your commitments to one another. Listen with empathy.   Put yourself in another person's shoes.  Truely understand another person while offering compassion, forgiveness and love; while also being true to one's self by speaking and living one's own truth in a gentle, peaceful and loving way.   I challenge everyone (including myself) to go deeper in giving this holiday season by offering the gift of yourself in allowing for a deeper connection in whatever forms are presented to you. 

Happy Holidays!

The Power of Imagination

The Power of Imagination




Everything that has ever been created and everything that has has ever been done first started out as thought in someone mind's eye. Our imaginations are very powerful in allowing us to dream possible creations for our lives and each other. The body even uses repetitive thought as practice. So if you wanted to practice dancing, shortly after haven taken a class but lack music or a partner, practicing the dance over and over in your minds eye is the similar to practicing it in the physical. This was confirmed by a study conducted with Olympic runners. Psychologists measured the electrical output of the runner's muscles and it was discovered that the same muscles used while running, also electrically fired while the runner ran in his mind's eye. Our dreams and inner urges have the potential to be very powerful calling us to make a change allowing for the expansion of our experiences. Is there something you've always dreamt of doing? Do you feel this deep call within? Perhaps you and your dream is what your family, friends, co-workers and the world has been waiting. Could you imagine the possibilities?

Got Peace

The following is a monologue I wrote and recited for the 2009 Spirit In the House Film and Theatre Festival, Lake Harriet Spiritual Community's own production of "Got Peace?"  That production and these words changed me forever.  It was during this time at some point I had finally stopped "talking" and started living the talk.  The peace that I and everyone else had talked about had crept up on me and before I knew it I was engulfed in it.  Shortly after the final performance in June this happiness and peace helped catapult me into my next and most fulfilling role of becoming a mother. After reciting the following words night after night their essence sank into me helping me to honor my intuition and joy and making the promotion of peace on earth my highest mission.  Its changed how I interact with others and myself.  It's also had a huge impact on how I brought my son into the world and how I continue to parent him.  The world needs to change.  And it starts with us, loving, loving, honoring and forgiving ourselves.  We then pass that on to others, our family, friends, community and then on to the next generation. 


I think finding peace is about going deep within myself. Getting in touch with and listening to that soft subtle vibration that permeates every cell of my being. You know that steady, constant, stillness that washes the stress of the day away and reminds us that we're all connected. My soul.
Sometimes my soul lets me be to enjoy just being, and other times it gives me intuitions or guidance. Sometimes the guidance can seem a little scary, or crazy, and not very practical so I'll chalking it up to big dreams or fanciful ideas...I'll ignore it, and go back to my daily routine. And everything seems to be fine...Until these intuitions start sneaking into my dreams, and waking me up in the middle of the night....They'll creep into my mind while listening to a conversation or listening to a song on the radio. And you know, I've come to learn that if I don't listen, life has a way of sneaking up on me, and can go peacefully with me in the drivers seat or I can go kicking and screaming and I've found that life is much more peaceful if I surrender.

Several months ago in the middle of this recession left my stable, yet emotionally draining, and non supportive Human Service job of more than two years. And even though it may not have been the most financially lucrative move. Spiritually its been invaluable. I've had the opportunity to get back in touch with some of my own passions that I seemed to have forgotten, and its been such a healing experience for me. Its remembering like myself all over again.
I sometimes wonder would happen if we created the opportunity for everyone to follow their own individual passions within our society. Where people didn't have to worry about making a living, What if all that was taken care of? Would people do what they loved? Would people follow their passions no matter how crazy or childish they seemed? How much farther advanced we’d be morally, technologically, spiritually, and musically if people didn’t have to worry about risking their livelihood to follow their passions.
One of my passions that I rediscovered was singing. Growing up I thought that in order to be a rock star, you had look a certain way and be a certain way. I always thought I didn't fit whatever that way was. I was too short, too round, too Asian, and not musically inclined enough to be successful. Then of course comes along William Hung on American idol!.…He became a sensation over night by covering Ricki Martin's "She Bangs, She Bangs"

So maybe its not about being the best or fitting the mold….But about expressing yourself in the way your soul wants you to. Feeling and acting on that impulse…listening to the inner voice within, and I don’t mean the one that tells you to not eat after 10PM. Its listening to your soul, your spirit, and finding joy in whatever you love doing…whether its hiking up a mountain, writing a song, or expressing your hopes for a new society in a monologue about peace
Since first doing this show about two months ago, I've joined Calliope Women's Chorus, and now I have the opportunity to sing with other women who are as passionate about singing as I am.  I've been working as a preschool teacher. I love my job, I'm refreshed, energized... And at this point in my life I feel so happy and peaceful, sometimes I say to myself "AHA! This is it, I'm meant to be here! My soul was meant to do this!"

So I encourage you to go out a find your AHA moment. You may not understand why you have certain ideas or inspirations, but I've heard that following guidance is like opening a package, you start with the the tip of the bow, which is the beginning of your journey, and as you progress or untie it and get the wrapping off you find that gift on the inside may not be what you expected. It turned out to be much better, and its exactly what you and everyone around you needed.

Love is the only Communication

If we close our eyes and tap into the stillness to listen to the subtle vibrations that permate the essence of our being we can feel, experience and know our connection to our spirit, our soul, each other, the planet and every creature on earth.  Diminishing this seperateness will  help us to move in the direction of healing the differences among us humans on the planet.  When we longer need to profit from another person in order to sustain our livlihood will we truely live and fully understand our connections.  How do we on an individual level start living and feeling this connection?  Through communicating, speaking, listening and acting from the heart.  Our hearts and bodies always speak our truth; however our minds sometimes overthink the messages.  Many times words fail to accurately communicate our needs.  True listening is done with the heart and hears only messages of love, acceptance and truth that is either given or requested.    Recognizing that we are enough within each and every moment helps us to come into alignment so that we can better hear the messages of the heart.

The Illusion of Safety

Some friends of mine are selling everything they own, saving up their money wearing only what objects of value they can put on their backs and hitting the road with nothing but their skills, their hearts and their faith to keep them safe and provided for.

When I heard this the adventurer in me was instantly jealous and longed for the open road. I had done some traveling in my early twenties, however I always had my own transportation and credit cards in my back pocket, and people who planned my trip for me all I had to do was ensure that I showed up at the right time to be picked up. My three months of travels had taken me throughout the southwest and I finally ended up in Hawaii were I was able to reconnect with my Godparents whom I hadn't seen since shortly after my birth twenty years ago. While my adventures had satisfied my insatiable thirst for the unknown I realized that the new, the unknown and the instability of my trek had turned out to be scarier and more stressful then I had though it would be. After four months I headed home back to the expected, the routine and the safety of people I knew that would take care of me. That would always provide a roof over my head, food at the table and great company that expect nothing of me but to be myself.

My husband drives for a living and so three to four days a week he is on the road braving whatever life may bring him whether it be a snow storm, a tornado threat, truck problems or accidents. He's learned to listen and heed the inner voice deep within. And every time he has done so he's avoided accidents and been kept safe and secure.

Its easy to forget in this journey of life that while the unknown can seem scary and unpredictable that the universe is constantly providing for us the experiences that reflect the feelings and expectations we have towards life. To have enough trust and faith that the universe will provide for us, and keep us safe in all circumstances and in every situation must first be felt internally and then chosen within every instant of every circumstance that the open road may bring. Many of us forget we have access to the protection and knowledge at all times so we fall into the safety of routine, and while this can bring peace of mind and comfort this is merely an illusion and true safety comes from within ourselves. True peace faith, and joy from within act like a force field that surrounds, binds and protects us.

If everyone on the planet could tap into this abunance of love and life simultaneously all fear of lack would be overcome and practically overnight we would abolish all war and currency. We would live in peace and harmony because everyone would know on a fundamental level just how much we are loved, provided for and protected.
