Stop. Breathe. Smile!

Yesterday I interviewed Taoist teacher Casey Kochmer on the 'art of being'.

Casey shared some really useful tips about dealing with stress, living in the now and bringing harmony and balance into our lives.

You can listen to the replay here:

or download it onto your computer or ipod for later.

If you don’t have time to listen to the full interviewm here’s Casey’s main advice:

Whenever you find yourself in a stressful or uncertain situation:
Stop. Breathe. Smile.

In other words, stop whatever you are doing or thinking for a moment.
Focus on your breathing.
Smile.

Simple as that.

Just thinking maybe we could simplify further by remembering this technique as
SOS. ‘O’ being the shape of your mouth when you take a deep breath.

Interesting how similar the philosophy is between Taoism and hand analysis.
Namely, the law of polarity, the paradox principle and the ying/yang principle are all the same thing. You can’t have one element without also having its opposite. The seeds of one pole are at the core of the other. Eg. The seeds of success are inside every failed attempt.

I’ll summarise some key points Casey made in the next blog .

Day 7 - the 7 laws of the universe

Success isn’t a goal it’s a process. We start this process each time we step in the right direction. We do this whenever we become conscious of the laws governing our lives and learn how to make them work for us.

Therefore, on the seventh day of dreaming I bring you -

The seven laws of the universe + plus 7 ways to activate these laws in your life.

The 7 laws:

the law of transmutation of energy. Change is all there is. You can direct this change with your thoughts.
the law of vibration (also known as the law of attraction). Like attracts like.
the law of relativity. Everything only has a value in comparison to something else.
the law of polarity. Everything has an opposite and cannot exist otherwise. (All opposites are just different degrees of the same thing.)
the law of rhythm. Life has a pattern, everything flows in cycles.
the law of cause and effect (also called the law of harvest: as you sow so shall you reap)
the law of gender. Every seed has a gestation period. Whatever you want already exists you just have to know and trust that it is coming



Here the laws are again in more detail:

the law of transmutation of energy . Everything is energy and all energy is in a constant state of change. Change is all there is. It’s just more rapid now than ever before. Learn how to adapt to change and how to use the laws in your favour. Energy moves into physical form. The images you hold most often in your mind materialise in your life.
the law of vibration (also known as the law of attraction). Everything is vibrating (is in a constant state of motion and has a frequency.) The only difference is the frequency or level of vibration. Thoughts are creative impulses of energy. All matter is transparent to the vibration of thought. Every thought you send out has an impact on everything in the universe. Thoughts do not go away and they attract situations of a similar vibration to you. To attact what you want you have to be in harmony with it (align your body mind and spirit).
the law of relativity. Relationships are everything. Nothing is good or bad unless you compare it to something else. Everything in life just is until we compare it. This is the key to stopping self destructive behaviour. To increase your level of vibration be grateful for what you have, and only compare what you have to something lesser. How you compare your situation will either pull you up or hold you down because you change the impulses of energy you transmit.

the law of polarity. Everything has an opposite and cannot exist otherwise. All opposites are different degrees of the same thing. For hot to exist, cold must also exist. Failure is accompanied by the seeds of success. The more you are willing to experience failure, the more you will succeed. You go in the direction you look. What you focus on expands. Constantly look at the good in people and situations. Recognise the opposite then pick what you want to focus on.
the law of rhythm. Life has a pattern, everything flows in cycles. Night follows day. Learn which cycles are active in your life and allow for them.
the law of cause and effect (also called the law of harvest: as you sow so shall you reap). Whatever you send out into the universe comes back to you. goes round comes round. Don’t worry about what you can get. Focus on what you can give.
the law of gender. Every seed has a gestation period. Whatever you want already exists you just have to know and trust that it is coming. For anything to manifest it must have an incubation period. Most people give up too soon. Often we give up just before something is about to break through and we end up losing what we really want. The is nothing new in the universe. Everything you want is already here. You have to know it and trust that it’s coming. What you are seeking is also seeking you.

7 ways to activate this laws in your life:

The power of understanding

the power of mind sets

The power of vision

The power of partnerships

The power of giving

The power of accountability

The power of gratitude

These notes come mainly from James Ray’s program: The Science of Success.

If you’d like to get a clearer idea of how many of these laws apply to your life, have your hands analysed or join my mastermind group where you'll learn to combine the information in your hands with 7 ways to activate these laws.

Happy dreaming!

seeing opportunities

I listened to an interesting talk the other night between
JamesRoche and David Neagle on the sly disguises of opportunity.

Neagle said something so profound it absolutely took my breathaway.
Something that I think nearly all of us trip over.

What's that?
He said, if you ask for something, it immediately comes to you in the form
of an opportunity.
However, if what you ask for requires your growth, the opportunity may
come disguised as misfortune or temporary defeat.
Often we don't even see it as an opportunity because it looks like a hurdle
rather than an opportunity! The big danger then is not to grasp the opportunity.

Why does the opportunity show up as a hurdle?
Because what you have asked for is not at the same level as you are.
It's usually much higher! You are therefore given an 'opportunity' that requires
you to move one step above where you are right now. In a nutshell: you are given an opportunity to grow. To stretch yourself to wherever you actually want to be.

But, here's the real gem.
Even if we do see the opportunity (for example, to develop new skills, hire a coach,
study or leave a job or partner) we very often don't act on it!

Why? Because we usually only see why we can't do it. Or why we can't do it right now.
Then we make a decision that keeps us stuck in the same place. The magic formula usually requires the opposite. It requires a radical leap of faith!

First we have to make the decision to grasp the opportunity. Only then do we get to see the next step.
Actually I know this is true. I've seen this play out in my lifeover and over.
And I've also been stuck on the other side just as often. Completely 'on hold'..
Seeing only the hurdle right in front of my nose instead of embracing the opportunity.

For example, we can't see where the money will come from. But actually, the first step is to seize the opportunity . Make the decision and commit to it fully. Even if it moves you right out of your comfort zone. Only then will you see where the money comes from. (You are actually flipping the coin here. We will talk about this later.)

Isn't life delicious!?
Neagle suggests:
When you ask for more love you get an opportunity to be more loving.
When you ask for more money you get an opportunity to provide more service.
When you ask for better health you get an opportunity to eat better etc.

Getting what you ask for is a three step process:
1. see the opportunity for what it is
2. make the decision to do it
3. change with the opportunity/ adapt and grow

The only things that actually slow the manifestation down are:
1. how you make your decisions (do you put it off?)
2. how fast you adapt to the change

To become an instrument for the music to flow through you, you have to discipline yourself to get there.

So what has this got to do with hands and laws of the universe?

Everything and nothing.

How this leap of faith works has to do with the law of polarity.
And what's that?

It's the principle that nothing exists in your life without its opposite also existing.
Everything has a shadow side. The only difference is: which side are you focusing on right now?Poverty is the same as wealth. Just the other side of the coin.
The question is: What side of the coin are you looking at?
Then.. that's your reality!
Flip the coin and you start experiencing the other side.

This law is absolutely demonstrated in your hands.
Your greatest strengths are also your weaknesses.
Which side are you focusing on?
Do you use your gifts or do you stay in their blocked shadow state?

Knowing you have this choice is what hand analysis is all about.
(Actually, knowing you have this choice is what life is allabout!)

We choose heaven or we choose hell with every breath.
If you would like to understand this principle more or have any questions,
please send them to me as I am interviewing David tonight.(more in next blog )
