A lot of people make New Year’s Resolutions only to fall back into old habits a few months in. Here are a few tips to help you stay on course for the whole year.
First get rid of 50 items in 24 hours. There are lots of things, stacks of magazines, toys, shoes, clothing, etc, that are not being used. They are just taking up space and making you feel cluttered. Go through closets and release these unused items. Move into the kitchen, sort through those “junk” drawers. You will quickly realize why we call them junk drawers.
If you have a garage or storage building go through and get rid of things you haven’t used in the last 2-3 years. Chances are if you have used it or worn it in 2-3 years you will not. Letting go of unused items frees up your home and you for new to move in. Be aware of emotional connections to the clearing out process. Sort through these as well.
A few years ago I had a client who told me of a painting at the foot of her staircase. Each morning when she came downstairs she saw that painting and felt bad. It was connected to something painful in her past. I suggested she throw it out. After much thinking on her part she got rid of it. A few days later she called to tell me how wonderful it was coming downstairs first thing in the morning now. If you have an emotional connection to something that doesn’t feel good.. THROW IT OUT! And the emotional connection as well.
After the sorting process is finished take it to the trash, call a charity to pick it up or get online to find a Free Cycle near you where you can re-house the items. I love using free cycle for toys, clothes and furniture. It keeps the landfills clearer and helps others who need these items.
Next move through your home with a bell, incense or smudge, walking around the walls of each room. This clears stagnant energy and brings a fresh feel to your home. Arrange the furniture, pictures etc in a pleasing way. Place a stone or bowl of crystals in each room to remind you to stay aware of the “energy” of each room in the home. A Feng Shui Sun-catcher is also helpful to bring positive energy into the home.
Now sit down and make a list of all the things you’ve accomplished this year. Note where you’ve grown in wisdom and understanding, all the goals you’ve accomplished. Pat yourself on the back a few times. Make a second list of all the things you would like to experience in the new year. Keep these lists together so that as you make a new note of something desired you will be reminded of what you’ve accomplished.
Come back to the 50 in 24 hours exercise several times during the year. You will find it easier each time to release stuff and the emotions that you’ve been holding onto as well.
Happy New Year!
Sun-Catchers for your home

As a coach I am asked a lot of questions. I love the questions as they always get me thinking. If I don’t have information about something I know how to find out. Been that way my whole life and it’s served me well.
The other day a client asked me “what about all those people who live on welfare”, “they don’t work and yet they have health care, help paying their utility bills, they get food vouchers and even a check each month, what about them”?
I do some of my best thinking in a hot tub and as I relaxed in water almost hot enough to boil shrimp an idea came to me about this subject. What if these folks understand something that a lot of people forget? What if they understand that life is supposed to be easy, their needs are supposed to be taken of?
I’m not suggesting that we all quit our jobs and sign up for welfare, I am suggesting that perhaps we’ve been looking at the outer appearance of a situation and not seeing something important.
Life IS supposed to be easy. Needs are supposed to be met. Everyone should have enough food, shelter, clothing, health care to do a bit more than survive.
Perhaps we have something to learn here. I know a few people on welfare and they spend their days doing what they really enjoy doing. Most spend lots of time with their small children, learning about the world together.
The law of attraction brings us what we expect. If you expect that you have to work really hard for a really long time to succeed, then that’s what you get to experience.
If, on the other hand you see life as about doing what really thrills you, feeds your soul.. you already are successful.
I’m often asked how I got started coaching and why I do it. The answer is simple, I love learning and sharing that with others. It thrills me to help someone discover how powerful they are and how easily they can create the life they really desire to experience.
Creative Principle, law of attraction is easy. It’s simple and natural. You’ve always known that.. you just forget now and again.
Let me help you remember how easy life is.

Fear is a sure sign that you are being told by your Soul that you are not being who you really are.
Fear is feeling disconnected from the Whole, from Source. Fear is the symptom of feeling alone, being in a state of belief and experience that is contrary to Who You Are.
Most people try to avoid fear, thinking it points to a lack of spiritual understanding. The opposite it true. All emotions, including fear serve us when we keep our eyes and understanding open to what they are showing us about self.
You can not know yourself as you are without the contrast of who you are not. Hot would have no meaning to you if you had never experienced anything but hot. We know what things are by the opposites that we experience. This is a good thing. Problem is most of us stay in experiences that we don’t enjoy because we don’t understand that they are sign posts pointing the way to the next experience of self.
You can be, do, feel, have, experience ANY thing.. Your beliefs determine what you think and feel into being. Just because you have brought one situation into physical form doesn’t mean you are stuck in it. Use the experience to help you determine what you do wish to experience yourself as Being.
For example; you are not enjoying a lack of money. You don’t like not being able to pay your bills on time, go shopping, purchase wonderful gifts for family and friends. Most people spend all their energy fussing about how unwanted this situation is… how horrible, uncomfortable and don’t see it as the gift that it actually is.
A gift??? you ask??? YES>> it’s serves a wonderful purpose to show you that what you have created yourself to Be, in poverty.. lack.. in contrary to who and what you actually ARE.
By looking inside the present situation you will all the answers to what you are really wanting, what you soul is trying to urge you towards.
Fear is also a powerful sign. It shows you that you are not fear. Your soul is trying to get your attention so that you will look for the opposite of fear. When your emotions and situations in life don’t feel good.. that’s your soul talking to you, telling you that you are denying Who You Are.
When you use the emotions and situations to guide you to what you really are rather than just what you’ve created to experience you can easily move back into the energy of what you really are. Emotionally what do you wish to experience yourself as? Breathe deeply and let that energy flow through you. Now take actions that are in line with that energy.
Move through fear by taking an action that is courageous. Take a chance, do something a bit risky emotionally.
If poverty is your experience.. fill up on abundance by taking note of all the abundance in your life, around you. Next act abundant. Help one person. Give $1.00 to someone in need. This is abundance in action.
By remembering that all situations are temporary, that they have gifts of wisdom in between the lines, you can easily create the next experience.

You are energy. Pure and simple, you are energy. Everything about you is energy. Your thoughts, emotions, actions.. all are energy. As a matter of fact there is nothing that is not energy.
Within you are chakras, energy wheels that correspond to color and certain aspects of your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual life. Whenever you feel out of sorts you are experiencing the energy that you are in a state of imbalance… asking to be brought back into balance.
All aspects of the chakras are equally important and balance in your emotions, body and life experience are the result of you being All Balanced. Some will spend more time trying to enhance the upper energy or chakras in order to “be more spiritual”, this is not balance.
True balance is the result of you allowing All That You Are to flow throughout the chakra system. Only as you are aware of and respectful of All Aspects of Self are you feeling safe, confident, spiritual, loved, capable, wise.
Pulling energy in by focusing on the colors of the chakras is a simple way to restore balance within the body. Go from red, orange, yellow, green/pink, light blue, dark blue, purple, gold.. thinking and feeling the colors moving from your feet to your head and down again.
Feel the difference in your body and emotions. This balance is maintained as you experience yourself as all aspects being One.
There in not a single aspect of your Being that is more than or less than another. YOU are a Spiritual Being.. all of you is spiritual energy.
Wearing clothing the color of a certain chakra will help you in restoring balance when you feel out of sorts. Let your intuition guide you as you dress… or choose colors for the room of your home.
You can also benefit from hanging Feng Shui Chakra sun catchers as shown in the photos in your home/windows.
Being in balance allows you to experience yourself as Who You Really Are.
Celebrate all aspects of Self.. Divine Spiritual Physical YOU!

Delusion is a wonderful and powerful energy. We create all manner of experiences that appear to be real and really are not using illusion, then we fall prey to our own creations and are in delusion of thinking they are all real.
This is why the creative principle is so challenging for so many people. They hear about the law of attraction and get excited at the promise of changing their lives. Making their dreams come true sounds wonderful and for a while they are sure they have found the key to everything.
What most don’t realize and why the become discouraged after a few weeks or months is that you must be willing to give up your connection to the illusion, you must be willing to realize you are under the power of delusion.. in order for anything to change outside yourself.
All creations are an inside job, you thought, felt, believed these experiences into the illusion of reality. You then forget that they are illusion and become deluded. This is a loop that many simply can not see their way out of.
Just like the once mighty dragon was tricked into becoming small, you have tricked yourself into believing you are powerless, that good luck just isn’t fated for you.
There is hope.. by working with your conscious thought, feelings to change your beliefs.. you can change the illusions and enjoy them. Once they are no longer pleasant you realize that you have only to create another illusion for yourself.

For coaching / healing.. click here.. learn to enjoy the process of creating your illusions rather than being deluded by them.

Dream Catcher Legend
Long ago Earth People saw, felt and heart Spirit all around. Becoming selfish and through neglect, most lost this ability. They began to follow every teacher, only a few continued to seek answers and truth.
A young man in searching truth and vision came upon a Spider who said, " I will help, You must find the Seventh Direction, Within". "I will make medicine to help you."
The old Spider bent a twig and wove a web within. She hung a feather for the Winged Ones, the Bringers of Dreams; a shell for the Water People, so dreams might be clear. She sat in the middle and spoke. "BE patient with self and others, share, do not judge, be loving." "While you sleep I’ll entangle the dreams that would harm you and show the good dreams the way through to help you find the Seventh Direction; the Teacher Within." The Spider then began to glow, transforming herself into a clear crystal.
May this medicine help you find the Seventh Direction.
Read the Spider’s wisdom again until you really “get” it. Realize that you are the weaver of your life, you are the power bringing into manifested form those things which you experience. It is not being done TO YOU, but by YOU. This is empowering when you accept it. You realize that even as you are powerful enough to bring about that which is not wanted you are equally powerful to change what you are creating and bring forth what is desired.
Many do not see this. Religious beliefs have brainwashed them into thinking that it’s all up to some “god” up there somewhere who gives them according to some law.. those things which they experience.
GOD is the energy which created you to be a Creator.. not to be less than.. but equal to.. responsible for your life’s creations.
Neale Donald Walsch states, “we are God Godding”. I love that. We are created to be the image and likeness of GOD.. not undeserving creatures. Stop living as though GOD does not love you. Realize who you are.. the power that you are.. and create with that.
There has been so much information about the law of attraction that we have over looked the spiritual aspect of this divine principle. Go deeper, realize yourself.. create a Higher Expression of you..

Rose quartz is a very soft, gentle and loving energy stone. It is often used for the heart chakra as it soothes the emotions, bringing a healing energy that allows you to let go of past trauma and be more loving of yourself.
Women are taught to always think more of the needs of others than their own needs, this leads to an over active heart chakra, where self love and self respect is often not experienced as deeply as doing for others in search of love through acceptance.
As a healer I work with women who have spent their whole lives giving to others to the point of personal burn out. Through the creation of jewelry I offer you tools to help heal your own body, mind and spirit.
Notice that I don’t often use rose quartz alone as it tends to work with the illusion that giving to others is the only form of love. I combine it with amethyst for spiritual insight and wisdom.. and with green agate for a more self nurturing and healing energy.
Mothers be sure to add these other stones and colors to your daughters pink wardrobes.. we want balance for our daughters. Loving others is not the same as always doing for those around us and leaving ourselves out.
I notice a lot of young girls today mixing pink and black. I love this.. they are naturally grounding the energy of love into their own lives. Most are not aware of this, yet we automatically move towards colors that we need.
A new spirituality is emerging where we are beginning to understand that true love starts with us loving ourselves. This is a good thing.. empowered women bring balance to our world.
Love yourself well.. always..
Donna

Years ago I began working with stones and crystals for their metaphysical properties. I realized that even as a child I had been attracted to stones, I just didn’t understand why. Certain “rocks” just felt good to me and I would carry it around in my pocket or line my window sill with the treasures I found while playing.
Now, many years later I know much more about the history of working with minerals. Not only have humans used them for ornamentation, but for their healing properties as well.
As an energy healer I know the power of working with stones and crystals to heal the mind, body and spirit of pain, congested energy blocks from past trauma and how this dis-ease is limiting to those experiencing it.
To this end I will begin focusing here on my blog a stone or crystal every few days that will be of benefit to you as a reiki, shamanic, light worker, or energy healer as well as though who wish healing and relief in body and emotions.
Today I start with a very powerful crystal. Lithium quartz is a very strong energy for easing physical pain in the body. Placing it on the affected part of the body will bring about relief, even more relief can be experienced by washing the crystal under running water for a minute. Place crystal in glass jar filled with pure water. Enhance the energy by placing bottle in sun or moon light. Now.. only drink 1/8 to 1/4 cup at the time. DO NOT drive after drinking the water. Used at bedtime you will find it enhances sleep and releases you from pain, or reduces it enough to allow you relief.
As with any medicine use in moderation. This mixture will allow you to be in less pain so that you can determine what is behind the pain and heal that.
Pain in the body, dis-ease is related to something else.. not just pain or disease showing up randomly. By working through the time line of the dis=ease you can get to the “root” of the cause and heal that..
The lithium crystal shown is on my website along with a few others. I dug these myself and know their power to work to ease your pain.
See the crystals I offer, by clicking here.
I also offer healing / coaching sessions on a donation basis when you are ready to heal your life.
Pain in the body is a symptom of your holding onto to something that needs to be released. As long as you hold onto limits.. you will continue to attract more that limits. This is law of attraction, creative principle at work.
Healing is not just about healing the physical body.. it’s healing the whole self, mind, body and spirit.
Love yourself well..
Donna

Remember Garfield the cat? He said, “if it’s on TV it must be true”. He’s not the only one who seems to think that way either. The media, including the internet, TV, even the movies tell us what to believe and sadly most people don’t give it a moments notice, much less another thought. They just buy into whatever is being sold.
Women and young girls compare themselves to the models and feel less beautiful. Older women are prompted to spend on creams and procedures so they will look young. Men are tempted to think that unless they are smooth and crude women will not find them attractive.
Religion brainwashes us to believe we are worthless and separate from our Creative Source, while politics swears we are not safe until we give them total control and ask no questions.
It seems as though everybody wants a piece of you. Everyone expects total, blind faith in what they are telling you.. and you just offer up your power hoping their promises will give you what you want so badly.
You want life to be different. You really yearn for answers and a different reality and have turned to all those who promise that they have your answers.. of course you’ve been disappointed yet you still cling to the hope that they will all come through for you.
What you believe more often than not is not what YOU chose. It’s what everyone your whole life has told you is right. You have adopted the beliefs of family, friends, preachers, teachers. NOW it’s time for you to take a good, long, hard look at them. Are they getting you where you want to Be? How do you feel about yourself? Look to those beliefs.
How do you feel about money? Relationships? Family? GOD?
Look at those things which are called beliefs.. they are what you are building your whole life on. 99% of what you are holding onto just isn’t working. It hasn’t worked for others either. That’s why we have so much greed, hatred, fear, lack in this world. We’ve all bought a bill of goods based on these lies. We’ve created and recreated with the same false beliefs over and over again.
NOW is the time for each of us, you, me.. everyone.. to look at what we believe. Ask.. “is this working for me”? If it isn’t it only makes sense to find beliefs that do work. Beliefs are the foundation, the very energy your whole life is created with. You can only create within these beliefs. Until and unless you change what you Believe… you can not change what you create and what you experience.
I know it’s hard to change. You’ve been taught to cling to these beliefs. You’ve been told it’s “unAmerican” to ask, demand answers from politicians.. it’s “unChristian” to ask about what the head of the church says, you’re a “bad child” if you don’t accept what your parents tell you about love, life, money, yourself and relationships.
I am telling you truth.. you will never know yourself in all your brilliance until you question your beliefs.. and change those which simple are crap. GOD will not zap you into hell.. there is no hell outside the one you’ve created for yourself with these beliefs. Even if family and friends turn from you for changing.. new family and friends will come into your life.
There is nothing to lose.. only much to gain.
For help in changing your beliefs

Perhaps you are one of those individuals who is always in the pursuit of happiness. It seems that no matter what you do, no matter how many actions you take, happiness always alludes you. In your pursuit of happiness perhaps you have changed relationships many times hoping that each one will be the very perfect relationship which will bring you happiness and contentment. You may have taken job after job hoping that each one will bring you a sense of satisfaction and allow you to realize your gifts and talents. You’ve probably read many books, attended classes and seminars, and gone through many self help programs in your pursuit of happiness, only to find happiness not constant for you.
Why? You ask yourself repeatedly why it is that happiness always seems to be just out of reach. The reason that you are not happy is very simple. Happiness is not the result things lining up in the way that you want them to be in order for you to feel happy. This pursuit will always leave you needing to do just one more thing in order to be happy. True happiness is a choice. The simplicity of this is why so many fail to see it. Mankind has taken this basic gift of the Creator and added so much complication that he now feels he must find happiness rather than just choose to be happy.
Most people are holding onto unhappy emotions and experiences of the past. It’s very difficult to be happy when you were filling yourself up with the emotions and experiences of the past. Take a moment and think of something that was painful in your past. What emotion comes to you almost once? It is the emotion that you identify the past experience with. If you are spending more of your time RE experiencing something that has already happened in the past the emotions you feel are always connected to the past. Now for just a moment think of something that you enjoyed, that was pleasant to you. What happens with your emotions? Emotions follow thought. Your emotions always follow your line of thinking. In order to change your emotional state you must choose thoughts that are in line with how you wish to feel. Although this is a very simple principle it is exactly the way your emotional state of being is created.
Rather than looking without yourself for happy take time right now to look within. That is the only place where happiness can ever be found, right within you. Choose a thought that feels good. Now let those thoughts grow, adding more thoughts like itself and go with that in your imagination. Your imagination is a wonderful and powerful tool that not only helps you create an emotional state but it is also the catalyst through which molecules join together to become what we call physical form. In order for anything to become a physical form it must first be thought and felt. This is the process by which you are always creating your next set of experiences.
A report taken several months ago showed that Americans were not the happiest people on the planet, this is rather surprising considering that we are the wealthiest nation. With all of our technology and all the financial wealth in our nation most people still find that they are not happy. The reason for this is very simple; happiness can never be obtained through the experiences outside the self. Happiness is always a choice, you are the only person who can choose it. Isn’t it time that you stop chasing happiness and make the decision to be happy?
