Take a time-out

Our lives are so busy these days, we hardly ever sit still. Meditation takes time and dedication, but what about a five minute time-out every day? I keep a magnetic stop watch on my fridge, set to five minutes. Every day I start it, and then I sit still. Doing nothing. Staring at the wall. Or out the window. Not drinking tea, not eating food, not with my laptop, not with a book. I just sit there, still. And I often have my best ideas during those five minutes.

Change takes time

When I know that something needs to change in my life, I often get impatient. I want to take action immediately that will lead me to the desired change.

Today I came across a paragraph that really spoke to me in Sonia Choquette’s book Trust Your Vibes At Work And Let Them Work For You:

[I]f an option leaves you feeling disturbed, troubled, restless, antsy, nauseated, or dissatisfied, your intuitive wires may be crossed – so you should back off from decisions and give yourself a little more time. Go for a walk and let things percolate a little more. Sound out your options as you walk, and let them ring back to your own ears. Accurate vibes somehow manage to ring true, while crossed wires don’t have the same vibrational impact. If it rings true, go for it; if it doesn’t, leave it alone for now.”

I appreciate the idea of crossed intuitive wires. My take on it is that it doesn’t have to mean that your intuition is off; it might just mean that the timing is off. That’s why it might be a good idea to leave it alone for now.

The chapter this quote is from is titled Be Decisive and suggests that intuitive insight can be completely useless if you don’t act on it. When I first started consciously receiving intuitive insights, I thought it was my responsibility to act on them immediately. But more and more I am realizing that that is not the case.

It’s okay for change to take time. It’s okay to know for a few months that a job isn’t right for you anymore before actually resigning. Its okay to have serious doubts about a relationship before making the final decision to leave your partner. Sometimes you might have to make certain preparations or gather enough courage. An intuitive wire can be crossed simply by fear of the unknown. As long as you are aware when this happens and don’t lose sight of the truth underneath it, you are still living in integrity with yourself and your intuition.

By giving yourself the time you need to act on your intuition, you are practicing compassion for where you are right now, while also making plans for the future. It lends a certain softness and fluidity to your decision making process, which is in contrast to the hardness and rigidity of forcing immediate action. As a pragmatist and go-getter, this is something I am needing to learn.

Life will meet your needs

Growing up in Germany, I had amazing health care coverage. When I was 5, I spent 9 weeks in the hospital, and my parents didn’t have to pay a penny. When I was 10, I spent a few months under psychiatric care in a mental hospital, and my parents didn’t have to pay for any of that either.

I don’t even want to think about how much those kinds of hospital stays would cost with the private individual health insurance policy I have now.

But I had this thought recently, during a visit to my family in Germany actually: What if it’s no coincidence that I haven’t had to go to the hospital at all as an adult? What if life is adjusting my health in response to my current living situation?

Maybe the deeper consciousness of life – spirit – knows that my health insurance is not that good right now, so it is making sure that the medical attention I need is minimal and affordable. Maybe as I get older and need more medical treatment for my aging body, things will shift politically and economically so that I will have the health care that I need.

This idea really gives me hope. Sometimes I am tempted to fall into fear regarding health care. In those moments, I think how lucky I was as a child in Germany to have such amazing health care benefits. But I was also unlucky in a way: I had to go to the hospital a lot. Maybe one of the reasons life chose those hospital visits for me was because it could: It didn’t cost my family a thing.

Maybe in a way I am blessed that my health insurance is not that good right now. It encourages my body to stay healthy. Unless life is really interested in teaching me a financial lesson, I feel that most of my lessons are going to fall into different areas of life now, and for the last decade or so that has been true. My lessons have mostly been in love and relationships, friendship, and also in my career.

Maybe it’s a coincidence that I frequently had to go to the hospital while I lived in Germany and not at all since living in the United States. Or maybe life is constantly adjusting its demands to my abilities and needs.

Soul purpose vs. Sole purpose

I recently received a newsletter from psychic Debra Lynn Katz in which she talks about the concept of soul purpose. She said that whenever somebody suggested to her that she had obviously found her soul purpose–being a psychic–it rubbed her the wrong way. After a while she figured out that what bothered her is that people seem to equate soul purpose with “sole purpose” – meaning this is your one and only purpose in life. Debra felt that she had many, many purposes in life, only one of which is being a psychic.

This resonates with me very deeply. When I left the corporate world in 2005 to pursue a career as a psychic/counselor myself, I thought that counseling was my soul (and sole) purpose in life. Over time, though, I realized that my soul also wanted to do other things, such as paint, drive a taxi, translate, write books, etc. I now believe that most people have many different purposes in life, that can either be active at the same time or successively. The idea that you have to find one purpose and stick with it for the rest of your life, in my opinion, is an outdated one and not as relevant in our modern society, where so many things are possible and can be realized at the speed of thought.

Participate in the free abundance project by Jo Dunning

I had just made an eye lash wish that I and every other human on earth may experience abundance when I was reminded of the Abundance Breakthrough Project by Jo Dunning. I honestly don’t know what it is going to entail exactly, but I do know that it is intended to create more abundance in the lives of its participants. Anybody who signs up before April 15 is able to participate.

From Jo Dunning’s website:

This amazing opportunity is sponsored by Jo Dunning as part of creating a flow of Abundance which will travel around the world on April 15, 2009 and begin to bring Abundance into the lives of multitudes of people. Every person who signs up for the Abundance Breakthrough Project before April 15th will be included in this powerful Program.

A few months ago I participated in one of Jo Dunning’s free teleconferences, and I felt absolutely amazing afterwards, and soon after positive changes started occurring in my life that I had worked on during the call.

I recommend her services to anyone who could use some transformation.
