Balancing The Imbalances

It is my belief that we become ill due to an imbalance in the body. These imbalances come about through:

1. A diet lacking in the daily intake of nutrients and phyto-nutrients

We need a variety of fresh, live foods and herbs every day. Allow yourself a sweet treat once a week and thoroughly embrace and enjoy it with no guilt.

2. Lack of physical movement

Take yourself out for a walk every day for at least 20-30 minutes. The benefits of this one act are amazing and I hope that, at the end of a month, you’ll be able to tell me all about it. Do one better for yourself and go dancing on a regular basis.

3. Not enough water

We need at least 2 quarts of water daily to nourish our cells and clear out waste products. Tea, coffee, soda, and juice do not do this. Juice is good if it is fresh but don’t count it as part of your water intake, and it is very high in sugar.

4. Not enough rest and sleep

Being able to stretch out and relax is one of the most important blessings to our overall well-being. Retiring at a time that will ensure we get seven to eight hours of sleep each night is a key to healthy living. If an opportunity presents itself to have a nap, take it and enjoy the luxury of being peaceful with your self. It seems so simple but it is vital to your life.

5. Improper breathing

Most people ‘shoulder breathe’ and the breath may make it only to the breast bone; we need to take our breath down into our power centre about an inch below the navel.

6. Limited evacuation of waste matter

Each day we need to sit in the washroom at around the same time and relax each muscle involved in the process of elimination. We can say prayers, read spiritual literature, chant OM, or whatever it takes to relax our bowels and allow free-flow of that energy.

7. Feelings of being disconnected from ourselves, our loved ones, our neighbours, our planet, our Spiritual Being

Make a connection to someone you love every day. Ensure you have a good uplifting or funny story to tell them to make their spirits soar with laughter and joy. You will feel wonderful when you do this – like you are ‘a part of’ the life around you. You will attract great people and keep the friends you already have.

8. Enormous amounts of stress

We live in a 24/7 world and we all feel like we are the most important one and that things cannot get along without us. As well as putting your e-connections to bed by a reasonable hour, so you can watch a good movie, take yourself out of the game one day a week. Do something for your self – shop, lunch with a friend, personal grooming, drive in the country – whatever it is that will nourish you on all four levels of being: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.

9. Lack of tools to deal with stress

Take a course in meditation, Reiki, balancing your Chakras. There are lots to choose from, such as: Tai Ch’i, Reflexology, Sound Healing, Crystals, etc…Continue, develop, and/or explore the topic of hobbies. Make a list of those that interest you and begin your research, finding ones that really resonate with you and feed your Inner Child.

10. Irregular clearing and balancing of the energy field

Develop a relationship with an Energy Worker and see that person regularly. It is suggested to go twice a week for two weeks then every two weeks for two times, then once a month for maintenance. This protocol (these six sessions) will generally clear up those daily, bothersome, and chronic situations, and regular sessions will keep your energy system clear and strong.

As individuals, there is a lot we can do for ourselves. When we do for ourselves, we empower our life with hope, gratitude, peace, and joy. We begin to harmonize the dense energies that have been created through unbalanced living.

Life still happens; devastating illness, which had been already set in motion through years of unhealthy choices, may still come to us. By following these simple remedies for healthier living, we will better be able to ‘survive and thrive’ through most of what life has to offer in a serene and grateful manner.

Taking a regular inventory of our wonderful and attractive qualities is a good daily practice, as is doing a ‘gratitude list’ for that which we receive each day and hold dear to our hearts: our family, friends, home, food & water, overcoming a fault, doing something a better way… there is always a lot for which to be grateful.

Become The Light

Become The Light

Taking a personal inventory of one's Self is a vital process. Most people hit the floor running in the morning and never sit with themselves long enough to find out who they are and what their life purpose might be. They shop, vacuum, drink, do drugs, smoke, run the kids around, jog, work 60-hour weeks to pay off a bloated mortgage, and blame everyone else for their misfortunes. They are disconnected and 'living lives of quiet desperation'. This line of questioning will help you discover the faulty core beliefs that are holding you back.

A journey inward, to find and nourish that divine spark, produces feelings of wholeness, connectedness, vitality, and compassion for others, among other things. When we stop denying who we are, we can start to become healthy, peaceful individuals.

We may not be living the life we deserve but we are living the life we chose. Know that, right now, you are living the life of your dreams. If you want to change your life, then change your dream. Energy flows where attention goes. You have created and manifested everything in your life and do so each and every moment of each and every day, through the thoughts and feelings to which you provide safe harbor. You have the Power to change your life at any time.

We need to discover who we are by seeking answers from that still small voice within. We were made complete, with all of the value we'll ever have; we just need to hook-up again, if we've lost that connection to the Source of All That Is.

As this process progresses, we naturally turn outward in order to help others. We are now giving from a full cup. As this feeling of bounty and abundance grows in us, we become an inspiration to those around us. We become a Light to the world, as we reflect the love of the Source of All That Is for its creations.

One thing that is really worth keeping in mind is this: “If ‘GOD’ (use your own term here) created us human, why would ‘HE’ punish us and condemn us for being human?” This idea will help us to be gentle yet thorough while we search and come to recognize our eternal beauty.

It is my sincere hope that you will be able to get to the bottom of what is troubling you and find the answers you seek and the wholeness you deserve.

May you know that you’re loved. May you feel deeply blessed along the way.

Explorers, Each of Us

"The Web" (C) 2007 Intuital Images

In the mid 1400’s, explorers set sail in a state-of-the-art sailing ship, to find a new land. They came to an island paradise and decided to go ashore. A landing party was chosen and the men boarded the rowboats and began to paddle to the golden sandy beach. They looked back and saw their majestic ship, in all its glory, bobbing on the horizon. It was a beautiful sight to see the white sails silhouetted against the blue sky. Looking forward, they were heartened to see the villagers gathering to greet them. As they ran their boats aground, the Chief approached them with arms open wide in welcome. Though they did not know the language yet, they readily understood these beautiful and simple people.


The inhabitants circled around the rowboats and seemed to make a great fuss about them. Others were milling about, chatting with each other, as their kids played in the sand. The landing party was invited to dinner and preparations were made. There was something strange, though. Not one of the folks they’d encountered had said anything at all about the great ship on the horizon.


During supper, the village medicine man came to join the happy group. As he approached the beach, he noticed something different about the ocean. He saw faint, peculiar ripples in the distance. He wondered what was causing them, as he sat down to eat with his family and friends.

Every day, this Shaman came to the beach and gazed at the ripples. Over the following weeks, things began to come clearer, until, eventually, he saw a great boat on the horizon, such as he had never seen before. He called to his people and pointed it out to them.


Over the next few days, each in their own time, all were able to see it. They didn’t know why they hadn’t noticed it before. The answer, of course, is they didn’t have a frame of reference in their consciousness and so they could not see.


I’m here to tell you, there is a great ship on the horizon such as you have never seen before. It is full of all your hopes and dreams, wishes and visions for your future. All you have to do is imagine and believe that it is so. Adjust your sight a little. Shift your thinking somewhat. Use courage to walk through the fear that is holding you back. Do the next right thing. Take the next step forward. Take your place in the world. Shine your light. Live your life. You’ll never regret it taking a chance on yourself.


This is what coaching is all about. Helping people to see what is on their horizon. Delineating a path with them. Taking my machete and cutting through the superfluous to get to the heart of the matter so that they can achieve their goals.


‘What do you really want?’ I ask. ‘Okay, just know that it is already yours. Now, let’s go get it.’


Then the journey begins.
