Find Out How Your Auric Field Affects Your Ability To Manifest

Over the past month,  I have been receiving tons of channeled messages, downloads as well as a strong nudging from spirit to share with others the
concept of manifestation, belief systems and energy field mindfulness. There is most certainly a theme that  has been put into place these days and spirit has been planting people in my field so that I can be of assistance to them as well as myself with empowering and/or powering up our desires, hopes, dreams and birthing them into our physical realities. The world is a beautiful mirror and the mirror can reveal so much to us; where we are, how far we've come and where we may be headed.

The Magical Questions Are; 

• Are you consciously aware of the thoughts and beliefs that are in your field? 
• Do you want the current frequency in your field? 
• What can you do to pull that old belief/frequency out of your field? 
• What beliefs/frequencies do you want to consciously anchor into your field? 

What is the field? The energy field or field is the aura, the egg-shaped energy that surrounds the physical body. The aura has many different layers that extend out from the body The field or auric layer that spirit is referring to is the one that is closest to your physical body. It's the last phase of the manifestation process before the desire and/or belief makes its transition into the physical reality. This field of energy acts as a magnet or anchor attracting a like frequency to it. Like attracts like. I know some people struggle with this concept however, some beliefs are old, hidden and pop up when an aligning energy is calling it out of its hiding spot. It may be that the outdated belief has served its purpose and ready to be moved out of your field.

The ideal goal is to be conscious and aware of the belief systems, stories and frequencies that we are placing into our fields as well as which beliefs, worries, fears, hopes and dreams are already anchored into our fields. It is quite possible that you may find some really strong solid frequencies that you want to keep anchored in your field and it's quite possible that there are some that are outdated and no longer serve you. 

I get it, some of the stuff in there isn't pretty and it may challenge you to look at let alone pull out. However, if you're really over the old patterns that don't serve you, then you will want to do this work for yourself. 

Clearing The Field 

1. Observation ~ Observe yourself and take a good look at the words and thoughts that you are speaking and thinking. Ask yourself;  Do I want this in my field? Do I really want to empower the current thought? If the answer is no, then simply grab it by the collar and remove it from of your field. Thank it for revealing itself and then bless it as you remove it out of your field. Try to not get caught up in the why it's there or how to prevent it from coming back. The more frequently you do this, the faster you will shift into a higher vibration. BTW,  there are will always be a few beliefs in your field that you will want to remove because they do not serve a purpose anymore. With each phase of the ascension process there will be old beliefs that no longer serve. True.Story.
2. Journal ~ I suggest keeping a journal handy at all times. You never know what empowering mantra, affirmation and/or belief system you might want to anchor into your field. We receive downloads of information often throughout our day. I like to write these golden nuggets of wisdom so that I can reflect on them at a later date.
3. Field/Aura Hygiene ~  Sealing and smoothing your aura/field every once in a while is an excellent spiritual hygiene practice. The field becomes muddy, cloudy and tears with regular every day stress, drama, family stuff, work stuff, health stuff, money stuff etc. Taking salt baths, saging yourself or burning Palo Santo will clear, cleanse, repair and strengthen the field. I like to use a selenite wand to comb my auric field after these activities. Selenite brings in the light, pulls out the lower frequencies and seals up the aura beautifully. Oh and selenite doesn't need to be cleansed.
4. Keep It Judgement Free ~ When shifting our consciousness sometimes we tend to punish ourselves or judge the patterns we get trapped in. It really doesn't serve us to beat ourselves up over the past or present. Acknowledge, remove, bless and anchor in what you DO want for yourself. It's that simple. No need to complicate the process.
5. Don't Forget Your Sense of Humor ~ The ability to laugh at ourselves and our situations is a true gift. Some of our fears are silly and it's ok to bring in humor. Laugher is a high vibration and a giggle/snort-fest is sometimes exactly what we need to shift our realities. Yes, sometimes things aren't humorous when we are in the thick of the sh#T. However, I can guarantee you spirit will bring in a mood shifter to move you into a higher vibration and laughter is often the vehicle to get you there.

Creating a thriving reality for ourselves is a heck of a lot easier than what we may perceive it to look like or what we USED to think it would look like. We don't necessarily need to take the long, drawn out path of dissecting each thought, each pattern and spend hours tracking where it originated. For some people there may be some trauma that needs extra TLC. I would like to add that each situation is unique and if you are finding that you are really triggered and struggling, then working with a trusted advisor might be the best course of action for you. But for the majority, we can take the shortcut. We, the collective are going through a HUGE shift in consciousness which is why so many of us are finding ourselves shifting our consciousness instantaneously. Each one of us has an impact on the collective and each individual that moves into self awareness, assists the collective and makes it easier for all of us to move into a place of sovereignty. 

Taking a conscious step forward is a huge step for each individual and each path is unique and precious 💕💜💕

What beliefs, frequencies and thoughts do you allow in your field?

New Moon In Virgo ~ Details, Organization and Following Through by Laurie Barraco

New Moon In Virgo ~ Details, Organization and Following Through 

Virgo’s New Moon brings us a centered and grounded approach to our lives and goals which is a welcomed shift from the recent emotional and etheric Full Moon in Pisces that had just taken place in August. We began this last lunar cycle dreamily looking at our life paths, opened up our hearts and psychic channels and now have the opportunity to get down to business after leaving most of the retrograde and eclipse season behind us. The exact time of the New Moon will take place is September 6th, 2018 at 2:01pm eastern time. 

We are currently in the sun sign of Virgo which is the sign of organization, planning and discipline. There are may positive traits and behaviors that Virgo brings to the table. Virgo is an earth sign and earth signs help keep us focused, grounded, centered and are excellent manifestors. If you are a little disorganized and undisciplined, then this New Moon will help you get on track and hopefully stay on track.

Some of the positive energetic influences and traits to embrace at this time are:

• Organization
• Paying attention to details
• Punctuality
• De-cluttering, getting rid of excess that doesn’t serve ~ expenses, clothes, paperwork, relationships etc.
• Communicating with honesty and directness
• Feeling a strong pull to take care of oneself, especially their physical health
• Creating and maintaining strong and steady stream(s) of income
• Being prepared waaayyy ahead of time

New Moons are a time for planting seeds (goals) and working with these seeds (goals) for approximately 2 weeks until the fullness of the Full Moon. With the influences of Virgo, we are taking those goals and bringing a different and deeper level of maturity, seriousness and attention to detail to the table. The Virgo influence will help us with our dedication and discipline guiding us to follow through with our thoughts, words and deeds. 

There are just a few words of caution when it comes to working with this energy. Be mindful of being so laser-focused and keeping to the plan that you don’t allow yourself any wiggle room for flexibility and/or miracles.  Also, you might find yourself a little bit too critical of the journey, yourself and past mistakes. We’re all human here, so we are going to make mistakes. The mistakes we make are part of the manifestation process. We are all perfect in our imperfections.

Here are some suggestions for this New Moon in Virgo

• Write down your goals and revisit them often. Be realistic with these goals.
• Get grounded so that you stay focused with sage, exercise, eating rooted vegetables.
• Carry crystals such as; citrine, celestite, fluorite, chrysocolla, amethyst and green aventurine.
• Work with aromatherapy oils such as; lemon, frankincense, sandalwood and sage.
• De-clutter your environment.
• Re-read everything. Don’t just gloss over paperwork, make sure that it’s correct and right. This isn’t a time to be lazy.
• Listen to your body and start taking better care of it.
• Burn green, brown or beige candles. Don’t forget to write your intention on the side of your candles.

This New Moon is most certainly an excellent time to fine-tune some of the intentions you may have had for yourself this year. We are at the manifestation phase where we are beginning to see some growth and progress with our goals as they begin to take form in the physical. It’s not too late in the game to fine-tune things and change them up just a wee bit. Take advantage of this time of precision, detail and discipline. If you do so, you will have virtually poured miracle grow on your goals by giving them such close attention. 

Don’t forget to remain in a place of gratitude and humbleness as your dreams and goals begin to take shape and form. Having an attitude of gratitude is one of the most important ingredients for manifesting your heart’s desires.

Blessings and Light,
Laurie Barraco

How Will You Celebrate The New Year 2018 and The Full Moon?

With each New Year, we find ourselves with an opportunity to start over with a fresh new perspective, reset our personal goals as well as review the previous year and all of the events that had transpired. 


This year, we will begin the New Year on a Full Moon! That's a huge energetic and lunar push to jump-start the New Year on Monday, January 1st, 2018. The Full Moon is in Cancer during the time of Capricorn. 

What can we expect from this Full Moon on New Year's Day? 
We are transitioning from the fiery and airy 2017 into the flowing intuitive waters and grounded, sage earth energy of 2018. You may have already been feeling the effects of 2018 and are super-sensitive emotionally and are sponge-like picking up on everyone's feelings as well as your environment. Your intuitive abilities are and will continue to heighten. With the earthy energy of Capricorn, you are receiving wisdom from the higher, higher self. The higher, higher self resides in a more expanded and ascended realm of existence. This energy can and will blow your mind as you experience epiphany after epiphany this year.

Many people, myself included love to create ceremony during the time of the Full Moon and the New Year. This year, we are combining these two events into one. Below I have listed some rituals and suggestions that can assist you as you embrace this powerful lunar event as we move full steam ahead into the New Year.

Full Moon ~ New Year Suggestions For 2018:

1. Releasing Ceremony - Write down all of the things that you would like to leave behind in 2017.  Be sure to thank spirit for all of these challenges because they have made you stronger and wiser. Read them out loud and then release them. Next, you can burn or bury them and energetically leave them behind as you forge ahead. Buh Bye Felicia ;)

2. Write Down Your Intentions ~ Writing down your goals on paper helps to ground those intentions into the physical. You are using the 4 elements of creation as you do so ~ earth, water, air and fire. You have the idea (air), you feel the desire (water), you write down your intention on paper with a pen or pencil (earth) and then you bring in spirit and take action by being proactive as you set on your journey (fire). 

3. Water Magic ~ Since the Full Moon is in Cancer, why not do a little water magic? You can take a healing bath with sea salt, epson salt, Himalayan salt and the herbs and essential oils that correspond with your intention. Another activity would be charging up your drinking water by either placing crystals that can help you with your intention in your water. You may also write your intention on your water bottle. The water will take on the property of the words written on it. Be sure to check to make sure the herbs and crystals you select are non-toxic for the skin and ingesting in your water.

4. Surround Yourself with Positive and Goal-Oriented People - We are influenced by the people and the environments we place ourselves in, there is no way around it. Consciously make the effort spend your time with people who are happy, successful and who are loving life. This is an excellent way of raising your own vibration and keeping you focused on your future goals. Seeking out a mastermind group is also an excellent way of keeping your eye on the prize.

5. Know Your Limits - Over-committing ourselves is something many of us struggle with and is one of the number one reasons why we do not achieve most of our goals. Writing down your goals with a loosely structured timeline is a healthy and realistic way to work towards the intentions that you have set out for yourself. 

6. Take Personal Responsibility - When you make a mistake ~ own it! If you make poor decisions ~ own them! If you hurt another ~ own it! If you find yourself in a mess, take responsibility and don't blame others for your decisions, actions and or inaction. By taking responsibility for what we say and do, we understand that we are in control of our own lives and destinies. When we take control and ownership of our experiences, we have the power to change these experiences for the better. I would rather be at the helm of my own ship than giving up my free will to another to choose my destiny. 

7. Go On Vacation or A Staycation - Taking time off from work as well as the the day-to-day stresses of life is one of the healthiest things we can do for ourselves. Taking a break resets your mind, emotions and physical body. Schedule regular trips to places you haven't been before or hunker down at home, relax and do nothing. The break from the day-to-day grind often is all we need to get back on course with our goals.

8. Reward Yourself - Positive Reinforcement is an excellent way to reward yourself for all of the hard work and discipline you have put towards your goals. If we do not have some type of celebration as we cross the finish line, then where is the joy and recognition for our accomplishments. We will always have something to strive towards as long as we have a physical body, so you might as well treat yourself each and every time you meet your goals. You deserve it!

May 2018 bring each and every one of you ~ JOY ~ LOVE ~ LAUGHTER ~ EXCELLENT HEALTH ~ PEACE ~ SUCCESS

10 Really Cool Things To Do With Candles

I have been using candles to enhance my magical intentions for as long as I can remember. 

There is something so beautiful and magical about the ritual of gazing into the flame of a candle that has been charged, blessed and lit with the intention of moving and shifting energy in your life.

Here are my top 10 favorite candle activities:

1. When I recognize that one of my chakras is out of balance, I often will burn the corresponding color of the chakra that needs a little TLC. Root - red, Sacral - orange, Solar Plexus - yellow, Heart - green/pink, Throat - blue, 3rd eye - indigo, Crown - white or gold.
2. I love anointing my candles with oil to add a little extra oomph to my magic. The type of oil I use depends upon my intention. Ex. for peace - lavender or money - cinnamon. Be sure to research any oil before using it on any candle for safety purposes.
3. When I feel the need to clear the energy in my home, office or personal space, I burn a black candle first to clear and absorb the negative influences and then I will burn a white candle to bring in the light and blessings.
4. I love to inscribe my candles with either a toothpick, pencil or inscribing tool with my intention to bring in more of a personal touch to my magic.
5. I utilize the phases of the moon to help me to either bring in or take away energy. During the time of the Full Moon to the New Moon we are taking away energy. From the New Moon up to the Full Moon we are bringing in energy. 
6. I always make a point of keeping track of how long it takes to burn my candle. I will then use the timing to determine how long it may take to manifest my intention. For example - If it took 3 hours to burn, then it means my results may take either 3 days, 3 weeks or 3 months to manifest in the physical.
7. I often will use the flame as a divination tool by scrying into the flame and allowing the candle wax and flame to speak to me, guide me and teach me. I always read the wax during and after the candle has burned. You will often find that there are pictures, symbols or initials in the wax.
8. When working in ceremony, I will use 5 different candles to represent the 5 elements and directions. Yellow in the east /air, Red in the south/fire, Blue in the west/water, Green in the north/earth and White in the center for spirit. The energy in the center is absolutely amazing and sacred. I suggest that everyone must give this activity a try!
9. I infuse my Reiki energy into each and every candle I use. I add the Reiki symbols to my candles which adds that extra, extra oomph to them. If you have not yet received the Reiki II attunement, any power symbol would work such as an Ankh, the Star of David,  Pentagram or even a Heart can and will enhance your magic.
10. I will invoke some non-physical helpers such as: archangels, masters of light or ancient deities such as Isis or Lakshmi to help bring in the energy to assist with my magic. There are many different resources that you can refer to help you coordinate the proper colors, aromas, herbs etc. to help align you with the energy of the light-being you would like to work with.

I prefer to work only with my own intentions. Often people will ask me to work a little magic for them. I am always careful to be sure free will boundaries are not crossed and that the intention is in alignment with the universal laws of morality and ethics. Never, ever, ever add someone to your magic without permission!!

Don't forget that a little candle magic does not take the place of being proactive in your life and taking the initiative to change your life where you know you are not happy or meeting your full potential. 

I love using candles as a focal point for my magic and the element of fire sure does gets the ball rolling!

Blessings and Light,

Releasing Ceremony - Make Room For Your Best Year Ever!

Every December, I schedule a date with myself for my yearly releasing ceremony to review all of the major events of the past year – the good and the bad. By releasing the events of the recent year, I am acknowledging my personal path and I am able to put my life into perspective and refocus my goals for the upcoming year.

Releasing Ceremony in 6 Simple Steps

Supplies: All you really need is a pen or pencil, a few pieces of paper and a quiet place where you will have some privacy.

1. In a private place, find a comfy seat and begin to write down all of the major events of the current year. You will be creating two lists – one is for all of the challenges and disappointments. The other list will list all of your blessings and accomplishments.
2. Take your time reviewing all of the things you wrote down. Remember, all that has transpired over the past year has all been purposeful for your personal growth.
3. After you having reviewed 2015, it is now time to release 2015 with love, respect and the knowing that you do not need to repeat the mistakes and that the knowledge you have gained from these circumstances will help you make room for more blessings in your life. Repeat the following statement out loud, “I am grateful for all of my experiences. I use the knowledge I have gained to empower, heal and grow as an individual. I now am ready to release what no longer serves me.” 
4. You may dispose of these two lists however you wish. Sometimes I burn them, sometimes I shred them and sometimes I bury them.
5. Now it is time to write down your personal goals for 2016. Be sure to not include anyone else’s name on your list. Dream big, don’t settle and really take your time with this step.
6. Get ready for the most amazing year ever!!!

This activity can also be done with a group of people, but do keep in mind that when you perform any type of ceremony, the other people’s energy and consciousness are added to your own intentions. I personally prefer to do this activity alone. It gives me a chance to be alone with my own thoughts and energy and it is much easier to focus on the things I am releasing as well as bringing in.

Blessings and Light,

Laurie 

Thank You 2014, Hello 2015!

2014 has most certainly been a year of healing, growth, transformation, trust and miracles not only for myself but for many clients, family and friends. At the close of each year, I love to review the past year's challenges, celebrations, and accomplishments of that year. I also make a point of taking inner and outer inventory to see what I am ready to release before the new year begins.

I always hold a releasing ceremony and thank spirit for the past opportunities for personal growth, I then surrender and cut the emotional cords to these challenges and life lessons. 

Now for the good stuff :-) Writing down my intentions for the new year. Sometimes I create a Vision Board so I can picture in my mind's eye my goals more easily. I make sure to write down my yearly intentions in my journal. It is extremely important to write down your intentions so that you give life (energy) to your goals. You are actually creating a focal point for your desired intentions to manifest into fruition. It is like a homing device for your goals. This really does work...trust me. 

I have been called the Queen of Manifestations. There really is no secret to my success other than hard work, laser focus and a whole lot of surrendering. I do have a secret weapon that I share with all who are willing to listen to my praises of this amazing tool. Drum roll please...It is Leonie Dawson's yearly "Create Your Shining Year". I cannot say enough about this workbook! It keeps you motivated, inspired and on track with your own personal goals for the year. I have ordered a few extras for friends and family. Here is a link be sure to check it out! Leonie's Workbook

A Gift From Me To You - I have charged the symbol below with unconditional love, abundance and Reiki energy. To receive the energy, place your left palm over the symbol and state the following affirmation - I allow myself to receive the limitless love, joy, excellent health, trust and abundance that the Universe has to offer. I will share my light and love with the Universe and will trust in my soul's journey here on planet Earth. So be it, so it is!

I am most certainly grateful for 2014, for it has been a beautiful year even with it's highs and lows. I am even more grateful for 2015 with all it's fresh canvases that are waiting to be painted with new beginnings and do-overs.

Here's to 2015! May it be a year of hope, joy, excellent health, love, faith, abundance and healthy personal transformation and empowerment! 

Blessings and Light,

Laurie Barraco

This Week's Advice ~ Keep Calm and Keep The Faith

I wasn't sure what to write about this week. In fact, I thought well...maybe I am not supposed to write about anything, and then the voices that are always speaking in my head spoke up. They said "Talk a little bit about patience and faith. Tell them not to give up. Life isn't about instant gratification about getting our way instantly. We are short term patience people here. We are forgetting about the process we go through as we wait and overcome our fears and worries. If we have not manifested or achieved our goals where is the growth? Why are you here? How can you bond and unite as people if you do not help others with struggles. Just because you do not have everything right now it does not mean that it will not happen. Send out your prayers and then let them go. See them as balloons that are set off into the air to go where they need to. Let your attachment to the outcome be released like the balloon and carry on. We, will take care of the rest. Be ready though. Be ready for what comes up because there are reasons and patterns and thinking that are blocking your desires. Be ready to go through the muck of your minds and emotions. But...be ready for the blessings, be ready for the love, the self-love, be ready for happiness and self-empowerment. Be ready for spiritual enlightenment. Your life will change, but it will change for the better."
And so as I let go of my "What do I write about?" it all came to me. 

Have a great week everyone!
Blessings and Light,
Laurie

One Helpful Person Coming Right Up!

We are sent help from Spirit each and every day. We may not realize this all of the time.
If you are desiring to manifest a level of awareness, the Universe will place the best person to introduce you to a new class, teacher, book etc. at the appropriate time when your soul is ready, willing and able. This has to do with trusting your prayers have been heard.
The way Spirit shows it to me is this way ~ You have a desire you pray for help to get your there. For example ~ you would like to manifest a new job. 
You put your application out there, interview and nothing happens. You have been as proactive as you can.
Meanwhile the current job is uncomfortable, you are struggling. The people around you at the current job are triggering you. The triggers are sent by the Universe to help you work through your people skills. They are helping you manifest how to deal with the current situations so you do not have to repeat what has transpired in the current and past work scenarios.
So, you then learn how to communicate, how to not take things personally and actually feel pretty good and not as stressed or drained at work.
Then someone tells you about a new position opening up somewhere else. You then apply to the job and then are hired.
This is one way how manifestation works.
You have been sent the people who will assist you to find the new job.
We are here to learn and grow. Each and every relationship is to help you evolve and grow. 
Pay attention to every person that enters your life. Some are here for a brief moment and some are lifelong relationships.
Ever think you may be the one that Spirit has sent to help another person's manifestations?

Blessings and Light,
Laurie 

Personal Obstacles

Manifestation is an area where many struggle. There are areas in our lives where manifesting is easier than others. This is where we are able to see where we have chosen to receive our growth on a soul level.
Some are able to manifest easily in the area of abundance. It seems to come to them effortlessly while some live paycheck to paycheck. 
Some have chosen addictions as challenges to overcome.
There are those who are "lucky" in love and of course there are those whose picker seems to be off.
Once you have identified the area(s) where you struggle, you can accept this is your chosen path for personal growth, things seem to flow more smoothly.
I suggest looking at each obstacle as a milestone to work through to get to a place of comfort. You may never "get there" but you can have peace and some success.
Also, if you are aware of your challenge area then you can be a little more forgiving with yourself.
It is also important to not judge yourself for ending at the same beginning place again. It is not the same if you have a different awareness of your sensitive areas. 
Here are some suggestions to help you cope with your re-occuring obstacles:

• Journal your experiences, sometimes writing it down helps you reflect and release the frustrations you may have. You can also document your victories in your area of struggle.
• Ask someone who loves you and who is honest, kind with their words to help you understand where you seem to be repeating things and are not aware of your behavior.
• See each person/experience as an opportunity for growth.
• Mentorship, find someone who is successful in the areas you struggle to help you implement new ideas.
• Forgive yourself for making repeat "offenses".
• Be honest with yourself, no more justification. There is a fine line with not being hard on yourself to switching gears to victimhood. 
• Faith ~ keep your spiritual connection strong. By connecting to the light you are able to recharge your batteries with light. 
• Meditation ~ by meditating you are helping clear the mind ~ this leads to more and deeper understanding.
• Read books on the subject, educate yourself.
• Hypnosis can help you redirect your patterns, it does work for some.
• Let go of the old stories of pain and disappointment. Learn from them and more on. Create new stories with happier endings.
• Reward yourself often when you are able to re-direct or change your usual pattern. Celebrate all your successes the big and small victories.
• Affirmations are wonderful to reprogram the patterns. "I am able to attract to me the romantic partner that is for my highest and best good. The partner that will love, respect and be the best match energetically for me." "I understand each relationship provides experience and understanding about myself. Each one brings me closer to the ideal partner for me."
• If someone criticizes you in the area you struggle, try to not take it personally. This is an opportunity to change your behavior. Of course, look within to see if there is any truth in the statement. There may be some truth, there may not be. However, look within to see why someone may make this statement.
• Raise your vibration. By raising your vibration, there is another level of understanding. You will have epiphanies of solutions and different ways to work through your struggles. You can raise your vibration by meditating, eating healthy foods, getting plenty of rest, spend time with high vibrational people, receiving healing, going to counseling and using a few of the techniques I have suggested above. 

We all have areas of opportunity for growth. The more aware we are of our "problem" areas the more easily our lives flow. Also, I encourage you to engage with your karmic areas with love, patience, understand and humor. 

Blessings and Light,

Laurie

Your Presence bring Presents

How many of you are multi-taskers? I, am guilty of this "offense".  After much contemplation, frustration and running around I have come to understand that I am counter-productive to all I am trying to achieve by cutting corners. 
The greatest gift you can give yourself is to be present in all you say, do and think.
If we bring awareness to our actions, we will be bringing all of our energy and focus into our lives.
Spirit shows it to me this way ~ Would you rather drive with all of your cylinders or with only a few. 
First of all by only running on a few cylinders chances are it will take you longer to get to your destination. The same applies with multi-tasking. You are unable to bring all of your awareness to each and every task. 
Think about children as well. They would rather have unconditional attention one on one instead of sharing the limelight with a sibling. This applies for all relationships...friends, co-workers even pets.
By multi-tasking you are possibly missing some of the gifts, for example a key word or phrase or even a sign from spirit. 
How many use their Bluetooth in the car while driving. You most likely are missing a sunset, a bird in the sky or even a rainbow. 

• When people are speaking with you ~ stop what you are doing ~ make eye contact
• When you are on the phone try to be present by really listening to what they are saying
• People would appreciate you sharing that you are in the middle of something and you would prefer to call them back so you can give all of your attention to them
• Schedule one on one time with a friend, a spouse, a pet, a child
• Make a schedule and try to stick to it. Cross off what you have already accomplished
• When meditating, praying or intending to spend quality time alone...turn off the computer, your phone and go to a space where there is nothing but you and source

Being present is the best present you can give yourself and the world :)

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!!

Blessings and Light,

Laurie

Happy New Year

Today is the day of blank pages, blank canvases ~ the day to begin anew.

So what can we do to keep on track with our new promises?

I have a few suggestions:

• Make your goals doable
• Keep a journal to monitor your progress
• Share your intentions with someone who will help keep you accountable with your goals
• Be reasonable with your timeframe
• Break up your goals into segments so you can have mini-celebrations
• Be flexible ~ some goals need to go back to the drawing board
• Keep it simple ~ try to not micro-manage the outcome down to every detail ~ this is limiting your outcome
• You do not need to pray or focus on your goals 24/7. Set the intention and release the over-analyzing
• Use my cd Transform Yourself for 21 days. It does work.    Transform Yourself 
• Meditate, pray make de-stressing a priority. This will help you raise your vibration, which will help you be more in alignment with your goal
• Give yourself small rewards for staying focused and disciplined with your goal.
• It is okay to start over
• If something is not working or your are becoming disappointed please realize that your higher power is in charge. Your intention may not be for your highest and best good therefore you may not achieve your goal...this is okay it means something better is on its way

Remember it is not all about the end result...it is the journey to the goal where we learn and grow to overcome our own challenges.

Happy New Year!

Blessings and Light,

Laurie

An Excerpt From My Book

Every thought, every word is a prayer. This is a profound statement. The first time I heard this from a teacher of mine, it blew my mind. Wow, what words have I spoken over time that are now affecting my life? Not only is this profound, but it is a Universal Truth! We are creating whether we are consciously doing so or not. We are vibration and energy. Words and thoughts are energy as well. All go into the giant manifestation cauldron. 

Be mindful also to watch words such as the following:

• I am stressed out.
• I am unlucky in love.
• I am doomed.
• Of course I am not getting what I want.
• I have bad luck.
• Life is not fair.

Replace with words such as:

• I am blessed.
• Thank you for all I have.
• It could be worse.
• Tomorrow is another day.
• I am healthy.
• I have trust and faith in myself.
• I am love.
• I am deserving of all things good.
• I am patient.

What words/seeds will you plant today?

Blessings and Light,

Creating Bridges

Creating Bridges

Now, more than ever I am seeing clients taking ginormous leaps of faith. What is going on these days? Well, I believe Spirit is encouraging all of us to find and give our bliss a chance. We are being brought opportunities to actually manifest our dreams and desires. What no longer serves us is really being brought to the forefront.

So….with this happening what are we supposed to do? I have a vision, a dream but I need to be realistic and pay my bills etc. There are a few steps I encourage people to take.

·     Identify what it is you really, really desire

·     Write it down

·     Make a checklist of what it would take in order for you to take that leap of faith ex $10,000 in the bank etc.

·     Take a look at some of the obstacles, be willing to take personal responsibility

·     Make some changes according to the above

·     Work with prayer/intention ~ if taking a leap of faith in the area of career is for my highest and best good, doors will open, I will have validation and I will pay attention to the signs and signals

·     Share your dreams with supportive loving people, not ones who will yes you but ones who believe and will help you stay grounded

·     Meditate, find quiet time and space

·     Be realistic with your goals

·     Let go of trying to control the manifestation process

·     Watch the miracles

·     Have a gratitude journal of all which has manifested in a positive way

·     Begin with taking productive physical steps towards your goal

·     Know you might have a foot in two worlds at once and it is okay

·     Gradual change can be a blessing

I could go on and on but you get the idea.

I know that when we are unfulfilled we become negative, resentful and literally crash and burn.

I encourage you to dream, follow that dream but also take your common sense with you.

Now go for it!!!
