Inspiring Words to Live By
I was inspired while I was half sleeping!
It was a dreary, rainy Saturday afternoon when I
walked downstairs to exercise. I really enjoy exercising to Cafe
Mom.
Well, this day, I noticed she had an episode that I had never done
before-"30 Minute Fat Burning with Weights."
I followed the video, feeling like I really worked my legs.
To finish my workout, I decided to follow the Shaolin Qigong video to help
cool down, feel relaxed, and be one with my body again.
What a great workout!
As I stood there, I noticed my daughter and dog laying on the floor taking a
nap. So, I decided to sit down on the couch and watch an episode of
Oprah Winfrey.
She was talking with a Buddhist Monk- Thich Nhat- an interesting
talk.
As I watched this enjoyable show, my exercising caught up with me. I too fell
asleep.
As I napped, I started to hear inspiring words in my mind. The words
caught my attention so much, that I was pulled out of my delirium. I woke with
a swiftness. As I focused, I noticed a new episode of Oprah Winfrey was
on the T.V.
Now typically, I have never been interested in listening to the Oprah
Show. But her words resonated with me so much that I had wanted to
share them with others.
" Inspiring words to live by."
I don't think anyone else could have said them any better.
Thoughts to remember- (Not all of these are from
Oprah. I have added some that I have heard and read from others who have
similar views.)
"We are co-creating with God!"
We always have God within us. A holy spark in us to lean on in hard times,
when we feel overwhelmed, lost, fearful, or confused. God guides us by
sharing feelings of excitement, passion, and curiosity to us when he/she wants
us to move forward with an idea/experience.
His/her way of letting us know what he/she knows we would like. If
we feel oppressed, negative, and down, look at what you're doing in life.
Maybe we need to let go of our "high status" jobs and take a less
stressful one. Or maybe it's time to end a relationship. It’s God’s way of letting us know, it’s time
for change.
Taking small steps
By taking small steps towards letting go
of our negative thoughts, our negative words, and our negative actions will
reward us with feeling more positive and having rewarding experiences in life.
Focusing on negative thoughts only brings in more negative experiences!
That includes worrying.
Try using forgiveness, compassion, and tolerance
towards others when they goof-up or cause hurts
to you and others in life.
Understanding death
Death is happening to us every day, every month, every year.
We
change our life's roles from baby to child. We experience a death to our
baby role, while moving forward into a new role=child.
We change from being a child to an adult. We experience death to our
child role and grow by moving forward into an adult role.
As adults we move from young adults to middle aged adults. Women and men
losing the ability to reproduce.
 |
| Death of a body/ Each body dies to form a new body. |
We experience death with careers, experiences in life, people, and nature.
 |
| A star will change shape, color, intensity throughout it's life. Each change is death to the old form. |
Present moment
I would like to add how important it is to be in
the "present moment" as much as possible.
Our lives are not in the past or the
future. We live in the present moment. For me, this has been
joyful to be able to keep myself in the present moment. When you're in
the past or the future, you will feel negative energy affecting you.
You're not in your body. Your consciousness is not in your body, it's in
the future or the past. Being in the present moment has allowed me to
feel others' energy come to me. If I wasn't present, I would soak up others'
negative energy, like a sponge not realizing that it was not mine due to my
consciousness being someplace else-past/future. My mood would change to a
negative one. By being present, I can feel the emotions and release
them. By being present, I recognize the emotions as not mine.

I have used all

unconscious or subconscious. Inner shadows are our belief systems,
our thoughts, our behaviors, our life experiences.)

my Reiki clients originally. Combining these tools with Reiki
creates a happy, healthy person. These tools, when used alone are
also beneficial!
