Getting my body back Friday - Living in the Power of Now to Maximize Workout and Health Benefits

Visualization of your ideal weight and optimum health plays a vital part in keeping you focused on your target. But when it comes to working out, your mind needs to be present, be here now.

Don't just do the routine exercise. Focus on what muscles you're working out. Feel the muscles being put to work. You'll better be able to isolate the muscles and properly target the muscle group you're working on.

Pay attention to your breathing, as you're taking in fresh oxygen and releasing the bad air from your body, feel what's happening to your body and consciously recognize the cleansing breath you're taking in. Get your mind actively involved in this process as you direct the inhaling of positive energy and releasing of the negative.

Particularly when you're brisk walking and jogging, you need to draw in more oxygen. And as you breathe deeply, oxygen moves through your body giving you more energy to keep going.

Have you ever sat down with a bowl of fruits and because you were preoccupied in your thoughts you didn't realize you had finished the entire bowl? Disappointment swept over your face because you didn't realize you were down to your last piece of fruit and you probably felt dissatisfied because you didn't get to relish in the flavour of the last bite.

When you are living in the power of now, you're able to enjoy every bite along with a sense of being full. Take the time to truly enjoy your food and not be in a hurry to get it over with. Enjoy all the flavours as they burst in your mouth.

Make a conscious decision to live in the power of now as you continue your journey to your ideal weight and optimum health.

Action Thursday - Practice Silence and Become Empowered Living in the Power of Now - Part 4

As you quiet the mind and the body you're allowing power from the Infinite Source to empower you from within. Silence in the now is where great power resides. The still small voice speaks loudly in the silence. Wisdom emerges out of the silence. Confidence comes to you as you're strengthened in the silence. You overcome fear and become courageous in the silence. For silence is the dwelling place of the Universal Mind and Universal Power.

But this time of silence does not come to you unless you truly desire and consciously set the time aside for it. Only then will you be empowered living in the now as you practice silence.

5 Steps to Practice Silence

Step 1 - Schedule a time everyday where you'll not be disturbed and you can still your mind and body, preferably first thing in the morning to set the pace for the day and at night before bedtime so you can cleanse the mind and rejuvenate the body.

Step 2 - Speak peace to your mind. Say, "Peace, calm, relax." As you give this instruction to your mind, it will immediately pick up this vibration and send it also to your body causing it to relax. Repeat this as many times as necessary for you.

Step 3 - As you relax, become conscious of and allow the presence of inner peace, inner joy and love to emerge from within. I use the word presence because you'll feel this energy within you. The deeper you go into this the stronger this energy will become and the more peace, joy and love you'll experience. The warmth of your inner sun will begin to shine brighter and brighter dispersing the clouds that shade it.

Step 4 - Release all thoughts that come into this space. As thoughts come to you, look at them directly with your inner eye and consciously release them and re-enter your inner sanctuary of peace.

Step 5 - Become conscious that you are now in the presence of the Universal Mind - God, where all power, all knowledge - the All-in-All dwells and that, and this is very important, you are one with this Universal Mind. Be conscious that this Power Source now runs in and through you. Bask in this consciousness.

This is where I release you to have your own personal experience. Follow the inner guidance. You'll develop your own unique personal encounters and come out feeling energized and empowered to go out into your day. And as your day begins, continue to practice living in the power of now so that the flow of the Universal Energy is magnified into your daily activity.

The more you allow this energy to flow through you into others - releasing love, joy and peace to those around you - the more power you'll experience in your life. This energy multiplies by usage and you'll become a great power source through which the Infinite Mind of God can be expressed on the earth.

2 Keys to Living in the Power of Now - Part 3

In order to become more successful at living in the power of now, these 2 important keys unlock the door to attaining this spiritual level of enlightenment.

1) Become more 'now' conscious

Develop the now consciousness by becoming more now conscious. Pay attention to what's in front of you, to what you're currently doing. E.g. when you're driving your car, you know your destiny but you need to be present; you need to be conscious now to the road that's directly in front of you, to where you're driving, to the street signs, to what the other drivers are doing and not on the destination.

You know you will get to your destination eventually which will become your now. But until you get there, pay attention, be alert to what you're doing now and that will get you safely to your future destination.

2) Apply the formula for success

R=IOT - Repetition = Imprint Over Time

Success in anything requires repetition. You don't get good at riding a bicycle by riding it only one time. It's the constant repetition of the principles of balancing that you master each time you get on the bicycle.

Similarly, practicing living in the power of Now needs to be a constant daily practice in order to change the old way of thinking and adopt the mindset of living in the present. Many of the memories of the past may come rushing back to the conscious mind fighting for a way to capture your attention again. Many of your future joys may entrance you and cause you to miss the moment of expressing gratitude for what you currently have. But be persist and in time the new habit will begin to create the imprint on your subconscious and ultimately expressed in your daily lifestyle.

As you rest and relax, become still and allow your mind and body to be absorb with the state of being and feeling inner joy and peace. Here you will draw the energy you need to vitalize every part of you and fill the void you feel within. There's power in stillness. There's power in silence. Practice silence and reap the benefits of a satisfying and enriched life.

3 Steps to Living in the Power of Now - Part 2

Living in the Power of Now enables you to activate the power that's available to you now. Power does not come to you for a past event. Neither does it come to you for something you're going to do in the future.

Power comes to you now! Now, when you need it to carry out the task that's immediately in front of you. Now, when you need to make a decision. Now, when you need wisdom to overcome your current situation. Being more in the present, in the Now, you can be in the constant flow of Infinite Energy to rise above any situation you face now.

What then can you do to embrace living in the power of now?

1) Observe your mind

Because the mind is the tool to express who you are through the law of thinking, take the time to observe how your current state of mind is controlling you as it runs on autopilot. If you're unable to stop thinking at will and just allow your mind to rest, your mind is in control of you. It's draining vital energy when you should be resting and energizing your body. This is the first step to taking control of your mind and not your mind controlling you - observing what your mind is doing.

2) Release the past

As you observe your mind, you can begin to filter out those thoughts and thinking patterns that are not in harmony with who you desire to be. Release the past negative experiences and don't allow them to be your present preoccupation to inhibit your future growth. Release the past positive experiences in gratitude so that you can embrace more new positive experiences that you'd never thought of by living in the power of now.

3) Release the future

Living in the future, for that moment when everything will become better, puts you in a state of being constantly absent from the present. There needs to be a balance - a time to think about the future, but then you need to become present so you can get wisdom and engage in the necessary steps, in the now, that will become your future results.

Living in the Power of Now - Part 1

What will you do with Now? Will you continue to live in the past, as good or bad as it was? 'Was' being the operative word here - it's gone. Or will you constantly live in the future - that which is not here yet?

Your past and your future only exist in your mind. All you have is here and now. Will you give your power to the past, releasing all your energies into something that no longer exists? Will you dwell in fear of the future that has not yet come?

Everything that is created has been created in the here and Now. When we allow our attention to be constantly preoccupied with the past and the future, we lose the energy for creative power in the Now.

What happens when we are preoccupied in the present with the past?

The Now becomes the past and presents itself with another missed opportunity to enjoy the peace and power that exists only in the Now.

What happens when we are preoccupied in the present with the future?

Preoccupation with the future robs us of consciously seeing and appreciating what the present, the moment of Now has for us. We miss when the Spirit brings answers to us because we're unable to immediately recognize it when it appears. We miss the still small voice of wisdom and the joys that the present holds because we're constantly looking for joy, peace and a better life somewhere sometime in the future.

Saturday Tunespiration - Let Me Be Your Wings

In all of our strugglings, when we release and let go and allow the Spirit to be our wings, we'll be taken to a world of inner peace and external abundance in any area of our lives. Heaven will be ours and all our desires will be met.

Decide to allow the Spirit's inner guidance to be your wings to a world far beyond what you could ever dream of.

Today's tunespiration comes from the kid's cartoon, Thumbelina - Let Me Be Your Wings. Even though the context of the song revolves around a romantic relationship, we can apply it to our inner romance with the Spirit and experience love, joy, peace, contentment and bliss. Think of the endless possibilities as you deepen your spiritual connection with God, your Infinite Supply.

Getting my body back Friday - Discover your True Nature and Use the Law of Thinking to Overcome Limitations

Do you know who you really are? Okay, I hear you say an emphatic, "Yes!" But do you really really know who you are? Many of us identify with being our physical bodies - I'm tall, I'm short, I'm beautiful, I'm fat, I'm black, I'm white, I'm Indian, I'm American, I'm Canadian, I'm a doctor, I'm a writer - and the list goes on and on. But these externals do not identify our true nature. We identify with these externals because of misplaced identity and hence the reason for many of our inferiority complexes, fears and insecurities.

Let's do a short exercise

1. For just a moment try to forget about your body - ignore your body.

2. Close your eyes and observe with your inner eyes what's going on inside of you.

3. Pay attention to your mind, your thoughts.

4. Now, quiet your mind from thinking, and focus your attention to your feeling place, your emotions, your inner feelings.

5. Allow yourself to connect with the inner peace, inner joy, inner love - at first you may just get glimpses of it if you've never done this before but keep focused and it will begin to become clearer and you'll be able to connect on a deeper level.

This place of peace, this place of Being, your inner spirit, this Inner Sanctuary is where you dwell and who you are and your connection to the Universal Mind, the Source, God, the Supreme Being. In this place you are unlimited. The ever flowing Infinite Supply flows to and through you. You are the sun, drawing your life energy from the Universal Source and shining brightly from within, emanating through your mind and body into your outer world. Do you see yourself?

Now you ask the question then, what is your mind? What is your body? They are but instruments through which the giant of your unlimited potential shines through. Your mind is the tool to express the ideas of your infinite being. It's the tool to develop and nurture your life purpose through the activity of thinking. Your body is the tool for your inner being to physically experience in expression this purpose.

The problem

The majority of humanity on a daily basis experience cloudy/overcast days, with maybe glimpses of sun trying to penetrate and brighten up our lives. But even on those days, the storms created by the mind because of wrong thinking block out the sun and leave a life in darkness - fear and despair. This fear expresses itself in many forms - insecurity, inferiority complex, limited self-belief etc.

Because of these overcast days you may not be able to identify with your true nature, the sun, because your perspective has become disillusioned by your physical vision. You begin to identify with your body, then you look in the mirror and don't like what you see. You keep thinking about how bad you look, how uneducated you are, how unloved you are. And the more you focus on the negative, the more the Law of Thinking is activated and you experience the opposite of what you truly desired and here begins the vicious cycle.

The solution

Reverse the order of your perception.

Don't Do: Don't look at your outer results - your body, your relationship, your life - and despise who you are. If the drill you're using to put screws in the wall does not work right, does that define who are? No, it just means that you may not be using the drill correctly in the first place and therefore you're not getting the results you want. By becoming angry and banging the drill on the floor or cursing the drill will not get it working.

Do Instead: But if you stopped and got some wisdom, perhaps by reading the manual or ask someone who knows, then you can educate yourself and apply this knowledge to the proper usage of the tool in order for it to carry out your intended purpose.

Get back to the original instructions, the Source, educate yourself by becoming acquainted with the sun of your inner being and draw from the Wisdom of Infinite Knowledge, experience it. Then you can fully develop, using your mind, your true intended purpose through the Law of Thinking and express and experience an abundantly enriched life in your physical body.

What does this have to do with getting your body back? You would have removed the blockages standing in your way. And by seeing your true nature you can now release your fears and be confident and bold in who you are. You can accept yourself knowing that your body is an instrument of your soul and now you can begin to give your body the love and nurturing it needs to serve you. Just as you'd do regular tune ups and maintenance for optimum usage of your car, how much more would you do for your body?

Action Thursday - The 11 Forgotten Laws - 2 More Steps to Subconscious Reprogramming using the Law of Thinking to Manifesting Desires - Part 3

It's Canada Day! Happy Canada Day!

For Action Thursday, here are two more steps to Subconscious Reprogramming using the Law of Thinking to Manifesting Desires

1) Be Persistent

Persistence will always keep you focused on your goal. Too often we give up when we don't see the first sign of success. Every seed when sown in the ground must go through the germination process. You don't plant the seed today and see it pop up out of the ground tomorrow, unless you're talking about Jack and the beanstalk lol. But you know something is happening in the soil even if you can't physically see it. And as long as you don't dig up your seeds with the shovel of negativity, it will germinate, grow and eventually bear fruit and good fruit at that. Keep pressing forward. Keep on keepin' on until you reach your goal. You can do this.

2) Use the Formula for Success

R=IOT - Repetition = Imprint Over Time

Practice, practice, practice. As you keep consciously rehearsing your goal, you are imprinting it on your subconscious and therefore you're reprogramming your subconscious mind to yield its power to you. And just like the soil, it will manifest your desire. Allow the law of growth to bring you new experiences each day until your desire is fully realized.

Each day garden plants show signs of growth - a visible display of the law of growth in action. The Law of Thinking works very much the same way. As you sow good seed thoughts repeatedly, more positive energy causes that seed to grow and over time your results are visible not only to you but also to those around you. As you feast on the fruit of your thought seeds, others can share in your harvest as well.
