I talk about my love of jigsaw puzzles and how they help me spend precious hours with Franny.  I discuss buying many old puzzles yesterday and wondering where I will put them all.  I also discuss helping out a friend and buying some of her DJ equipment and the wisdom of making that decision.

I talk about the unseasonably warm weather and other things floating around in my head.

I talk about how I'm in the process of finding my own spiritual voice.  So far I have been parroting my mentor's style, words, methods, etc. and that is perfectly fine, but I've known I had my own voice and way of expressing myself inside of me and I've been trying to figure out what that sounds like.  I decided I needed to do a deep dive into many people's methodologies and styles, so I could pick and choose what resonates and see what I have been doing all along that I didn't recognize as being divinely inspired.  Things are coming along and I'm so happy I have taken the time to do this work.  

I talk about the pop-up summit I'm presenting in on Saturday, May 23rd.  My topic is "Overcoming Resistance" and I'm nervous to give it.  I have presented this topic before and now been in a summit, done and interview and had another group clearing call, but still it's early days in my speaking career and I have nerves.  In this podcast I run through different ideas and angles I have for presenting this discussion.

I talk about how my kids are having issues with their online schooling.  I understand they are bored, frustrated and miss school and their friends right now.  I really do understand ... to a point.  I wish they would just sit down and complete the little bit of work they are responsible for everyday rather than letting it pile up and stress them out a few days down the road.  Ah, youth and lack of follow-through!  

I talk about Dr. Wayne Dyer's 7 question paradigm shift he uses as the basis for one of his last books Excuses Begone!  I mainly discuss the first few questions  he asks (because I forgot the rest!).  These questions have opened my eyes to how many excuses I use in my daily life, even in my upgraded state of improving myself nearly 24/7.  I have excuses for everything -- too old, too poor, too this and too that....  These questions will help you reevaluate what you are saying to yourself, testing the truth of these statements and beliefs, and help you remove them from your mind.  They are very simple yet powerful questions and I'm grateful I took the time to listen to the discussion.  Hopefully, you will be inspired to buy his book or find out more information on these questions.  Enjoy!

I talk about how I've shifted from merely listing the things I'm grateful for at the end of each day to feeling the gratitude more deeply and completely inside my body.  It's a different feeling and it leaves me feeling elated and even more grateful for all the blessings in my life.

I talk about how I was invited to do three FB challenges last week and how it's too much.  All these summits, challenges, FB lives, training sessions, etc.  are overwhelming me and I had to take a time-out.  Everyone's in on the action right now due to the pandemic and I'm tired of all the online stuff.  I need to focus on my self-care.

I talk about how I was really excited to hear and understand the information that Esther Hicks - Abraham discussed in their video "The Vortex".  At one point, Abraham is answering a question from an audience member about whether it's advisable to go back to the earliest memories of trauma and remove them from the root.  Abraham discussed how this was a terrible idea that would only serve to keep someone stuck and magnify that low vibration.  Abraham said that if that low frequency was still active in one's life, it would show up in more recent experiences, because everything IS vibration.  The energetic pattern is the same whether it's from our past or our present, so we only need to react differently and change the energy of a recent experience and it will change the pattern all the way back in time.  Abraham then said that we are NOT containers holding all these different traumatic experiences and vibrations.  We don't accumulate and save all these energies.  Simply put, we are transmitters and receivers.  Everything in our life is energy that only exists right NOW.  There is no past and no future with energy.  So our only recourse to change our vibration is to change it at THIS moment.  If we feel badly or experience something crummy or negative, we need to choose a higher frequency feeling to change things.  We don't have to zoom up the emotional frequency scale unless we want to -- just ascending a rung or two higher is enough to positively change our energy and start to eradicate the trauma and negative influences.  Every change comes out of the present moment.

I talk about how I spent the majority of the last 16 days listening and watching speakers and presentations in the Hay House summit.  I watched a lot of Louise Hay and Esther & Jerry Hicks (Abraham).  I learned a ton, but it was a LOT of information.
