More Achievements for the Reiki Moms in Anapra, Mexico

The Sisters of Charity who orchestrate the Proyecto Santo Nino continue to provide and support so many helpful projects for the mothers and their challenged children in the dusty streets of Anapra, Mexico. Now, the mothers have fresh, potable water in the clinic but also at their homes.  www.waterwithblessings.org

The other latest accomplishment is the mothers have started their own business of sewing a variety of flags which can be purchased at this link. Jean C. Ferris, Reiki Master has recently visited the clinic for her annual Reiki Review and the mother's have presented her with a set of  flags.

Please take a look at these links which are transforming the lives of these special and dedicated Mothers. Many thanks  for the  dedicated service of  Sister Carol, Janet and Peggy and the many volunteers who travel each week to Mexico to make certain these mothers and their children thrive.

I hope that you can find time to financially support them. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all.

Changes Taking Place

Its been quite a while since I blogged at this site. Lots of happenings are taking place in my life.

My Drs. were very surprised at my nipple healing and agreed with me that it would not be necessary to have additional surgery.

I got rid of my old juicer and bought a Nutri-Bullet, which is smaller and more powerful wattage. I have switched over from my Green Drink dried powder to juicing fresh twice a day. This unit is easier to clean and takes a minute to make a drink.

The next thing is my going to the gym again, three times a week. 45 minutes of elliptical cross trainer and 15 minutes of strength training.

The third thing and the most exciting is creating a distributorship with my twin in Life Vantage selling their products. First go to  ABC Primetime video for viewing and then Go to our site for details and let the products speak for themselves: Life Vantage. If you are interested please contact me at our site and I will get back to you.

Wake Up Calls

I was thumbing through some class notes from one of my favorite teachers, Sally Kempton. This caught my eye. Our transformation journey is spiral in nature. It is a series of repeating cycles of expansion and contraction.

We start with a Wake-up call to get our attention; a call to action. We practice, struggle with our effort, we attain and plateau, we fall, lose our great state, restart our self inquiry and arrive where we begin.
The cycle starts over, but hopefully we learn something and our journey begins from a new starting place.

There is a point where we must break the cycle. It is not supporting our sacred contract and journey. We must bid it farewell. Take fresh new steps to free ourselves.  Reiki On, Mrs. Takata said.

Waking Up to What We Already Know

We know deep in our hearts what we need to do, how we need to act, and what is important to our health.
 I remember saying once upon a time ago, if I would act on everything I knew was good for my health, I'd be in great shape and in a great place.  Well, I have been embracing changes in my life, changing my diet, going to the gym, continuing all the other things of support that rallied around my bodies since October.

So how am I doing? I feel so wonderful, healthy, strong, my cardio-vascular system is pumping out for 45 minutes on the elliptical cross trainer, my quadriceps are bulging,  my butt is slightly smaller, my weight-well I have gained weight, but I keep telling myself muscle weighs more than fat. My measurements haven't significantly changed that much, so something is not right about that theory.  I am drinking 2 green drinks a day and eating a smaller cooked meal at night. Am I discouraged? No, I am listening to my body and acting on the truth that I know. Change takes time and I just need to continue with my focused determination. Don't slacken your efforts, you are just beginning on a yearlong marathon.  My breast tissue varies from 90-99 % of normal.  

I had a wake up call, which I listened to and acted on. Next week I revisit my doctors.

May We All Have a Wonderful 2013

I opened one of my favorite books, I Heard God Laughing, Renderings of Hafiz, and randomly picked a poem. What an appropriate New Year's Message:

Tripping over Joy

What is the difference
Between your experience of Existence
And that of a saint?

The saint knows
That the spiritual path
Is a sublime chess game with God

And that the Beloved
Has just made such a Fantastic Move

That the saint is now continually
Tripping over Joy
And bursting out in Laughter
And saying, " I Surrender!"

Whereas, my dear,
I am afraid you still think

You have a thousand serious moves.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~





















Hira says,

"I Surrender, I Surrender, I Surrender
                and
With Self-Effort and Grace
I will Be All and  Do All."
