Often when we become stressed, we put an extra burden on our bodies by cutting ourselves off from what we are feeling so that we can just “get through” the stress. Financial problems, work issues, and disharmonious relationships can really shut us down, not to mention reading or watching way too much news.
I received this message from Marie Manuchehri yesterday. In the message she talks about the heart or fourth chakra. She says:
The fourth chakra receives the highest amount of energy, in the form of abundance, for the human body. Reception occurs at the back mate of the chakra, right in-between your shoulder blades. When this chakra is open—its normal state—and allows energy in, it receives health, love, joy, and wealth. Many people refuse to receive, and energetically block this chakra, withholding deserved abundance and healing.
Considering that the heart chakra receives the highest amount of energy in the human body, it is understandable that it’s a good idea to keep it open and flowing. Check out Marie’s website for exercises for helping the heart chakra receive energy and to keep it from leaking energy.
I just spent 21 days writing from prompts by Maya Stein’s online writing course. I excavated a lot of material from my writings and am renewed, inspired, and ready to write more. (Postings to come)!
Forrest calls his approach evolutionary astrology. Though there are certain traits a person may have that may be revealed in their birth chart, they are not necessarily static—each person has the choice to grow. We are all here to evolve. Rather than telling the future, an evolutionary astrologer may help the subject find the path that will lead toward growth.
Basically, it described a meditation in which you imagine sending love to everything – first, you let love grow in your heart and allow it to flow throughout your body. Then with each breath, let love expand beyond yourself to fill the space you are in and beyond. You could do this meditation anywhere. Walking down the street, send love to the trees and flowers and grass, to birds and animals that you see, to other people . . . Send that love out on the exhale and let it return on the inhale.
The time between my birthday and New Year’s Day feels like a strange limbo netherworld of trying to put into momentum my “changes” and the cloudlike pressure of anti-climactic-holiday-fluff

I first read Creative Visualization: Use the Power of Your Imagination to Create What You Want in Your Life (Gawain, Shakti) when I was 15 years-old. I used to make tape loops of her affirmations and listen to them all night long. I know it sounds cheesy, but I had a lot of “negative” messages to work […]
