Who am I?

(Warning long post ahead :-) )

I am a conscious observer, an active creator and an expression of God's presence and yet unseen by anyone. If I choose, awaken and discover this and learn to hold onto it beyond the brief moments of inspiration when it is so very clear then we have learned all of the things that we require.

I have a mind. It is the genesis of thought. It is the recorder of my current physical history, my memory. It contains my EGO. Filled with Judgements, Principles, Desires, Pride a need to please others, a want to do everything with perfection and in the best way.  It is not me.  It is filled with others thoughts that have become mine, others judgements of self and others, right and wrong that have become mine.  And overtime these are the things that have been saved to my mind and played back in an unending loop of thoughts and filled my mind with unconscious thought activity.  I am now learning to watch it, to guide it to a more fruitful function.

I have a heart. It is the place where I can find who I really am... and the key organ that keeps my body alive. It generates feelings that tell me what is me, what strengthens me. It generates feelings that give me the skills and information to learn who I truly am! It gives me feelings that indicate for me how I'm thinking.... if I am aware of that connection. Feelings allow us to connect to express who I am, to give life to connect with others to have empathy to care to be connected to express our true self... feel! Our heart an be the expression of the ego. In any event, it reflects what is happening in my min by the feelings it holds. I am learning to listen and hear it. My heart is not me!

I have a body. It provides me a physical space to reside in while I am here on earth. It has five senses that I use to experience the world. Sight, hearing, smell, touch, taste.  All of which give me information about what is happening outside of my body, to my body or what my body is doing. It allows me to express my self and ideas and thoughts in this world by allowing others to hear my thoughts, see how I feel, enabling me to take action in the world, to build physical things that others might experience, to communicate and share idea's. And yet it is not ME!  I am learning to appreciate and pay attention to it.

I have a purpose in this lifetime bigger than the limited me I've lived with for so long or thought I was for so long. The me of my internal world that is being reformed, rediscovered, excavated, expressed, drawn, shined up.  I am learning to discover it, to have faith in it, and to express it.

I AM, THAT I AM not the one I thought I was...

The Journey from Fear to Love

Today I recieved a wonderful gift from Dr. Phil and Jane Montrose.  A video from the Heart of Success Mastery Series.  In this video, he explains with great clarity a frame work for an individuals journey from being captured by the illusion of pain and fear and moving into your greatest work, your uniqueness and love. It is a fabulous framework to understand yourself in this miraculous journey of awakening.  If you are a coach it is a great model to understand where your coachee's are as well.

I had the great pleasure to have Dr. Phil Montrose, the holistic Dr. Phil, was my very first coach and healer years ago at a time when I was releasing emotional trauma from my past as well as learning that I had a gift called Intuition and in transition from one career choice to another.  I learned some very powerful tools to understand where emotional blockages where rooted using Spiritual Kineseology, and then how to free the blockage using EFT and then understand my mode of intuition and structured tools to better utilize it ask for guidance, etc. As my work brought me away from Dr. Phil and my life lead me to other places and experiences I find my self coming back and I will definitely be learning more about holistic coaching as well a revisiting the tools and practices that I learned oh so long ago. Now that I know a few other modalities, it is important to revisit this again with a much more open point of view. Dr. Phil and Jane Montrose have created some of the most power tools to guide emotional healing, I just can not wait!

What Do You Deserve?

As you speak in every day life, notice what you say. God is listening, he who created the universe and answers back. He answers back as an ECHO of your voice.  If you say, "I am beautiful." Like a canyon echoing back he will say, "You are beautiful! You are beautiful! You are beautiful!  If you say, "I do not have enough,." He will reflect back, "You do not have enough!"  Take this day to reflect on what you ask for. How? Through the words you use to describe your everyday experience.
