Get Your Beliefs Out Of Your Box

Get Your Beliefs Out Of Your Box

I remember an old song about Don’t Fence Me In, and Give Me Land; Lots of Land Cole Porter’s hit song "Don’t Fence Me In

“In Hollywood Canteen, Roy Rogers performs the

Song.

This song for some reason kept playing over and over in my head, and I honestly don’t remember all the words, but it kept going through my head which annoyed me.It annoyed me until I started writing this post about getting my beliefs out of My Box.

It is amazing how a sport such as skating for me challenges every aspect of my life.

Just getting to the rink for practice, money for skating lessons, how to teach a person who skates and just happens to be blind are the first topics to discuss.At the same time; the challenges are overcome with dignity and gentleness as I somehow dialogue with whatever is happening.

I never dreamed when I first put a pair of skates on in 1968 that I would somehow be teaching folks how to sense their bodies in very unique ways.

I am an avid Braille reader, and now I am getting ready to purchase my first real Braille Display.

I never liked writing with the slate and stylus but feel attracted to Braille Displays as I won’t have to use Braille paper and punch holes in real paper.The Display will delete, make new dots as new information arrives on the keyboard.

I suppose this is like deleting something in our consciousness as well.We can pick and choose our selected files or folders to delete, save, or put them in our recycle bin.

I’m a firm believer, and a firm feeler that beliefs can be dealt with in kind and gentle ways.

The dialogue with our beliefs truly can be a dialogue of dignity as well as have diplomacy as we soften our beliefs.

I feel this happens as the gentleness allows me to glide through life instead of griping or groping my way through my life.

Think about how you sense your feet as you walk.

Do you sense the floor before you step on it, or do you pay no attention to the act of a step or walking.

Just some thoughts.

Sense Your Dots And Spots

Last week, while at Ice Works with Uschi, we discussed what is the difference between a dot and a spot.Uschi says a spot is a thing on a dress, other clothing, on a wind shield of a car, something that is an unnatural shape which makes sense in my opinion.Spots are the things we get too involved with which stops our natural sensitivity to energy flow.

When I sense my dots, feel my dots and then use them, the dots expand, have many dimensions, and flow.Spots if focused too much upon can disturb or disrupt flow of naturally flowing energy.Source is flow that is undisturbed or uninterrupted flow.It is like a current of energy, a stream of energy that is always here with us at all times.But; if we disturb or focus on the disturbances or the disruptions, blocks, barriers of energy, the natural flow does not cooperate.Not; that it isn’t here, but we are vibrating at a lower energy vibration as not to feel the higher vibrations of flow.

Love, joy, are source energies.

This is why daring to have a sense of our dots as desires maybe not yet fully in the physical, but present enough that we can sense something which could be extremely practical.These dots when focused upon enough can change our lives.They can change our world by the way we feel about our dots.Dots make a difference.Dots have all the dimensions which lead me back to the idea of feel first, and form follows which Ruth and I write about in our book.

When I Braille my feet and Braille my way through skating and moving, I become aware of expansion and the smaller I can feel a dot, the larger or bigger the comfort area expands.It is if the smaller I sense my dots, the more productivity I get out of the original small dot.Which becomes larger, spacious, and other shapes and dimensions are revealed to me.

There is also a connection to laser light and light rays to the dot.I am not yet sensing all these dimensions, but this morning is the first time I am able to write in words about the connection between the dot and the dimensions the dot already has within itself.

The dots could represent wholeness that is unpolluted, totally perfect, pure, and these dots could be perfection in the physical.

If these dots represent perfection for me, then perfection isn’t an idea that is stagnate, so perfection always increases, expands, and grows as does the universe.

Then; we come to yet another exciting adventure with our dots.The dots, as expand by focusing upon them, feeling them, these dots have space, and different textures begin to be felt or sensed.This leads to shapes and textures which we can actually begin when sensed enough to mold like clay or silly putty.

Now; it gets even more interesting, because when the dots get excited by our emotions of feeling good, the dots begin to dance.But; this can only happen if there is natural flow.A natural current, a natural feeling good and a sense of some kind of connection is felt.

Sense Your Spark

I am so excited about feeling the spark inside myself becoming a flicker, a flame, and the spark somehow fans itself, and becomes larger.

A candle a flame use to be a flash of incite or a flash of inspiration now becomes more steady, stable, more actualized in my physical experience of daily living.

I am sensing the dots and spots, and now the dots expand instead of shrink.

There is an expansiveness to my life, and my surroundings as well as my world, but most of all; my community.

I am a true believer in Unity through the Community.The spark is the start.Sense a spark and a spark becomes a tiny dot that feels good.Feeling good is the spark.What happens as we keep feeling our spark?Can it turn into a flame, a light, a beacon of light?Can we sense ourselves so much that we actually imagine ourselves as stars burning brightly in the heavens of our awareness for all to see?They see us, because we feel us.We feel, and they see.

This to me is raising up the ladder of vibrations.The frequenceys get lighter, more spacious, and I have more room to create that which I really want.

When I first started sensing the dots and spots, I thought I was going crazy which didn’t feel good.

Was I going up the ladder in my doubting mode?Of course I wasn’t, but the interesting thing that started to happen as soon as I recognized myself not feeling good, the energy changed just because I recognized what was happening.I truly felt it.

This is why in my life, the sensitive approach works as the more gentle I am as I sense something such as an emotion I don’t want, the quicker it can change without any effort or input of much energy.

I also feel and somehow really know that this inner spark doesn’t want to quit.

So; I will follow what I feel as Abraham Hicks

and so many others state over and over again in their materials.

We can do anything as we sense our spark first and allow it to guide us from a feeling place which also gives us space to sense what is coming to us in easy and gentle natural ways.

Love

I decided to write a bit on the word love.

Love conquers all, heals all, and perfect love casts out all fear.

Love lifts, lightens loads, lessens grievances, and lifts you up, lets all life live in harmony.

Love

Ongoing, overcomes obstacles, outreaches itself,

Love lets you know that you’re on track, and as soon as you’re off, you’re on again.

Love,

Love has a voice, a vision, vitality, and is a vitamin from the inside, visualizes perfect outcomes for any goals you really want, and inspires that which you truly desire from the inside rather than from the outside first.

Love,

Love is education, eternal, energy, that energizes that which feels good in your heart,

evolves constantly to higher vibrations, extends, expands, and embraces all.

Wholeness And Balance

Living from love.Living from my heart more than from my head.What a neat feeling it is when I actually can experience joy from my heart rather than fear from my head!Wholeness is already in us.You don’t have to get it, because you already got it is a term and a phrase I state to all my friends and students and clients.They usually get it sooner or later.The ones who don’t get it don’t return for sessions.So this is how I sort out my clients.If they say the phrase Yes But; more than three times, they’re out the door.Usually it’s by their own choosing, but once in a while I insist that someone

Not come back because I know that they don’t want to work.Actually; they’re not ready yet, but at least we planted a few seeds, and when the time is right, they’ll receive help from the source appropriate for them at the perfect time.I now firmly believe that I’m always in the right place at the right time.This is no joke!The mind is so powerful that we as a human race are just beginning to understand realizing this incredible potential that mind has once its awakened.Awakening comes from inside the self, but we can sometimes use external events to tune ourselves inside more.It’s amazing how once one realizes mind really exists what one can do with the mind.I’ve been told in so many books, and by so many teachers I have had the pleasure to be with through the years; that you are as you think.So whatever you think you sooner or latter become in some way shape or form.In other words, you really are what you think.Now through many years of studying, I have found another secret.Taking yourself too seriously can get you in a whole lot of trouble.So now balance.Having humor and honor both serious and silly is really important for me. Honoring our humanness and honoring our wholeness is extremely important for me when I am doing the balancing act.

Process From The Heart

I am starting to get an idea about heart energy as a very practical method for solving challenges in my life.

I can see the world differently as my heart feels gentle, kind, opened, and receptive.

I can embrace life rather than erase anything.

By doing this, I feel for what is right for me instead of fighting for what is right.

I wrote about this in Our Book which has many insights as to how the heart can gently help us through any situation.

I am experiencing longer periods of my day as calm and peaceful rather than dramatic emotional roller coaster rides.

I’ve always had some sense of peace, but the more I tried to prolong peace, the more upset my emotions became.

My heart center for some reason is the connection to the feel of the dots and spots.

It is as if I can Braille my heart with an inner finger touching my heart center so gently that it sends comforting and soothing energy throughout my entire body.

This does feel good.

Could this be yet another connection to spirit or source as it feels so good?

The sense of peace is more of a reality for me now than a dream which at times I Honestly have trouble believing it because it feels so easy..

Things that I want that I use to feel were so hard to achieve or attract to myself are Arriving without any effort on my part.I’m just feeling calm, and thoughts about what I want are noticed by me, but no stress or strain.

Only a deep sense of peace, calm, and warmth from my heart.

Maybe this is really love leading me, and as I am part of love itself this calm and Peaceful sense of being is natural.

Maybe as I love more my life will get easier and like thoughts attract like thoughts as do feelings.

This could also be I am starting to sense creation in the instant.

Moment by moment as I feel love and feel connected to life and all of it’s beauty.

Inner Champion

No metal of any kind can match true self worth.Although; a metal or an acknowledgement doesn’t hurt anyone.It is good to be recognized.It is even more exciting when each of us internally honors and acknowledges our inner abilities of any kind whether we do sports, clean houses; work at a nine to five job or whatever.

Balance always has give and take to it.Balance always; for me anyway has a kind of breathing to it.It is somewhat flexible, and at the same time; balance has fluidity as well.Self expression, spirituality, loving the self, honoring the self, healing, feeling, embracing all of it is where I am now in my journey through life.

My skating, as I have said before is finally feeling like I feel it in my mind. I have felt it in my mind for many years, and now I am actually sensing the exact type of occurrence on and off the ice.

Now, synchronicity is a natural happening like breathing.

This feeling of synchronicity is an interesting experience as I trust and go with it, and actually; between you and me; it’s more about just accepting that we already love ourselves.

Ruth and I write about this in our book.

The incredible sense of joy that happens when we recognize and feel the true self, self being love; actually fosters physical healing, feeling good, plus other countless kinds of miracles. I really feel connected to the universe.

Life is good, and skating still feels good.So I will continue to ice skate until I outgrow the sport of ice skating.

How would this happen?

If I begin to not feel good when I am ice skating or teaching ice skating.Each of us inwardly knows whenever its time to take a hike or hit the road, or bight the dust. .I became an inner champion; never getting a gold metal of any physical kind.At least not yet.And it still now a days doesn’t matter much.The love of the sport will lead me wherever I am to go in the sport of ice skating.Just follow the inner river right?It so far has worked for 54 years, and I am expecting and anticipating it to always work for the rest of my life.

Once we can tune into our inner champion as we all have this quality or ability, we truly can win at anything.Failure can be an adventure, and we truly can learn from our so called mistakes as they become teachers to allow us to transform anything as we look and feel it in a new way.

Hope, peace, joy, and most of all; love for self and love of self allow life to really become an exciting adventure using the idea of our inner champion always cheering us on and we truly can win at life.

In this way, I win, and you win, and everyone wins.

Diversity And Energy

Anything if looked at correctly can become a terrific teacher.Any kind of adversity can become our best friend if we choose to work with it in this way.It takes great sensitivity, but after practicing, anybody can do it.

Diversity can be turned into an adventure.It really goes back to loving self.The true self which is spirit.This spirit or spark, is in each of us.So let’s use our spark and allow it to turn into a beacon of light.This beacon can turn into a flame.

Life to me; is like a tapestry of some kind.Everything connects, overlaps, weaves itself somehow together in incredible ways.It’s as if I at times can take a huge step forward, and the next day fall backwards farther than I could ever imagine.This is only temporary, because life works in cycles.These cycles intertwine, interconnect, and really somehow do weave an incredible quilt; if you will.The weaver is spirit, inspiration or imagination.

If I feel and see only the spark of spirit in everyone, then where is the diversity?I feel that being unique is diverse enough, and as A Course in Miracles says "Spirit makes use of mind as means for its self expression."So; as we feel good, are we not expressing our true spiritual self?

In the light, all are equal.

I sometimes have to remember to remind myself I can’t get spirit, because it is already here within me.

When I remember this, it feels good, and I am inspired to keep feeling and follow what I feel until I reach my goal or choose something else.

The Language Of Sensitivity

The Language of Sensitivity

I am convinced that sensitivity has a language of its own. Words like push, strive, hard are replaced with palpate, easy, effortless, and gentle.

Friction becomes flow, and fear becomes more like friction in motion rather than being stuck.
Guilt, anger are stuck energy and can paralyze our emotions as well as our lives can stay in that stuck place with no flow, but plenty of friction. As we climb the ladder of energy vibrations, we come to frustration which is a bit higher than basic stuck fear or paralyzing energy, and frustration leads to friction rubbing against itself until movement happens.
Here is an opening, an opportunity to turn an obstacle into something productive.
It can also be an opening for movement, growth, and less friction and more flow happens.

Love leads us into feeling good, because love feels comforting, comfortable, and has no resistance when we feel love’s presence.

I am also aware of the jewel or the pearl or the diamond inside a problem. This means, how do we, on an energy level get the pearl or diamond out of stuck energy like molasses? We can only do it with joy, love, happiness, and appreciation. All of these examples of managing your energy in new and exciting and innovative ways gets the sticky stuff; like the Molasses to melt, because joy to sticky stuff is like a fire melting or burning the sticky stuff to get to the pearl or the diamond.

One of my favorite lessons from A Course in Miracles is Love Which Created Me Is What I Am.
I still remember the first time I read this lesson in 1984, and the joy and comfort from this one lesson has brought me to a new awareness of the constant and consistent presence of love which never really leaves.
I can forget this for a bit, but it always returns as I remember who and what I really am which motivates me to remember joy, and through this joy I can sense life and live life fully and have more fun, and experience less fear.

God Vibration

I was wondering what should I post about today, and found something I wrote in December 2003 and thought it to be relevant for 2008 as many folks are starting to really get the law of attraction, and feel vibrations, and I hear from skaters as well as my other clients they do feel something inside happening.They sometimes cannot discribe it in words, but it is happening to all of us in incredible, but yet sensitive and gentle ways.

It is as if I am able to vibrate with God like climbing Jacob’s ladder.God cannot come down to me, but I surely am able to come up to God in terms of vibration.Vibration is an energy, and love is an unconditional energy for all to enjoy.As the race consciousness raises itself, so will our awareness of God become enriched, enhanced, and instant physical manifestations will not be magic, but an actual physical reality for those of us who dare to vibrate with the highest thought.The highest thought being God, Love, unending, limitless joy, creativity, magic, passion, feeling good without an end.

I use to think that there was something wrong with me, because not many people in the skating world understand the sensitivity skills I am wanting to teach to fellow skaters and people in general.I even have tremendous challenges from other massage therapists who cannot get what I am doing.I now realize this is ok, and I also realize I cannot give up these dreams.These dreams and high thoughts, and lofty goals are from spirit, God.I only need to be patient, and wait for the people who vibrate with me at the same frequency and then projects will be developed.

Now it is 2008, and I have somehow connected with plenty of people on the same wave length or vibrational connection frequency.

I now am co-author of a neat book, I am back working on many projects and taking lessons from my number one coach, Uschi, and also have the honor to be a co-host of a Blogtalk Radio Show which started in July, 2008.

I am also wondering when I have those doubting times which allow my energy to vibrate down the ladder instead of up is a natural tendancy when we doubt our desires or doubt our dreams?

I suppose the dots with using Braille as my perception of life had a vibrational affect, and maybe I didn’t go totally down the ladder of vibrational torment or torture.I’m feeling good, calm, relaxed, and without any real effort, connections are naturally and gently happening.These connections seem to help everyone involved in the connection whether it be a collaberation of a Blogtalk Radio Show, writing a blog, or my skating adventures on and off of the ice.

These are exciting times, and maybe a bit unsettled, but we have our connections and our vibrations to gently guide us through this adventure we call life.It truly just gets better and better.
