Dear Ones,
Many people are talking about ‘transformation’ and ‘change’ but are they really thinking of those words as you might? Let us look at ‘transformation’ as it pertains to these days.
When you have a discussion with someone about transformation, are they really talking about the deep level of transformation, after which one’s whole life is lived at a different vibrational level? Or are they talking about a little shift in perception that causes a slight change in one’s circumstances? There is a big difference.
True transformation occurs within one’s being at a cellular level and renders that person a different person thereafter. You must be ready for this kind of profound shift when you enter into it. Otherwise, you can be essentially derailed by the energy differential and become disoriented in the shift.
If you are reading these words, however, you are ready to take the steps necessary to make the profound commitment to transformation that allows you to take a quantum leap forward in your personal growth. There are three steps necessary to prepare for this shift.
First, you must acknowledge and accept where you currently are, realistically, in your path of growth. It is a very human thing to deny your own reality and to refuse to acknowledge honestly where you stand. Many of you might be in denial, not of your faults, but of your greatness. It can be daunting to accept that you have a Life Purpose as great as yours is and so you have developed a habit of shying away from that Purpose. You are hiding your Light under the proverbial basket.
Second, you must realize that there is some work involved in effecting a major transformation of your energetic level and you must be willing to do the work to make the shift. Personal growth work does not happen without an acceptance of the new level of existence, of the changed ‘you’ who emerges from the process. And it IS a process to which you must commit some effort and awareness.
Third, you must commit to living as the transformed ‘you’ after you have gone through the process and created the transformation. Your energetic being will have moved beyond the level where you started and you will be able to access new energies – new thoughts, beliefs, visions — that did not exist at the previous energetic level. In other words, you will be able to see things differently and you must respond to the call of your new visions.
When you stand in the place of having completed these steps, you are ready to make a transformative effort to change who you are. For in your life on Earth, it is only you who can change. You cannot change others, but you can model change for them. You cannot change everything around you, perhaps, but you can change that which it is important to change in any given moment. Any change that you want to see in the world around you must be centered in a change within yourself.
Start there. Start today. Make the commitment to personal growth. 2012 and the years beyond are asking you to raise yourself to the highest vibration that you can achieve. Do not stay in the level of the vibration of what you perceive as your faults. Instead, lift yourself into the level of the vibration of your gifts and manifest these in the world. Raise your consciousness and you will raise the consciousness of the world.
And so it is.

MUSE-INGS: Personal Work and Happiness
January 4, 2012 — Rosemary“The unexamined life is not worth living for a human being” — Socrates
As far back as the time of Socrates it was taught that examining one’s life is extremely important, to the point of making life ‘worth living for a human being.’ And, yet, in the 21st Century, we seem to have become so involved in being busy that it is difficult to pause and ponder. What does it really mean to examine life?
For one thing, I believe that we must be constantly aware of the choices that are before us all the time. An unexamined life creates a false impression that ‘I have no choice’ but that is truly never the case. There is always a choice. It might not FEEL as if there is a choice but that is because we are making a decision based on what we feel, think and believe about a situation. It might be because the alternative before us is so abhorrent that we cannot imagine making the choice to do other than the path we see as the ‘only way.’ But we could choose something different even if the consequences were unacceptable.
Many clients come to me with seemingly impossible choices that they face and they ask for guidance in making decisions about those choices. The answer is often not ‘this or that’ but, rather, ‘how can you find a way to have both?’ That is, they can move from ‘either-or thinking’ into ‘and thinking’ and the solution presents itself. But what we believe about ourselves and our world often prevent us from moving into the higher space where the solutions live.
I remember several years ago, after one of my favorite Christmases of all time, I was facing a Christmas without any family except my husband. I was very depressed about the prospect of not seeing our kids or grandkids or the rest of the family during the holidays. The Christmas before we had had a magical time when all of our children and grandchildren were together for Christmas, ‘Santa’ came to our house on Christmas morning to deliver a kitten and a Buzz Lightyear toy, and we had time to relax and be together. And then everyone had moved away and we were going to wake up on Christmas morning without any family to share in our day. We were even going to be visiting with the grandkids just before Christmas because Richard had a business trip to their area, but the trip was to end just before the holiday and we were scheduled to return home to the empty house. My belief was that we had to be ‘home’ for Christmas, no matter what my heart wanted. But it finally occurred to us that we didn’t have to leave when the business trip was over. We could stay in the hotel, be with the family, and celebrate Christmas the way we wanted to, even if it was not at home.
We had an amazingly wonderful holiday that year! We cooked Christmas Eve dinner for 19 in our Residence Inn suite kitchen. We had a little tree from the drug store and a fire in the fireplace and enjoyed our extended family, missing only 1 son and his wife that year. But it took a huge leap in changing beliefs to allow that magic to happen when the closed-up, depressed thinking was keeping the possibility from presenting itself.
You can change your beliefs. You need to, however, first examine how your limiting beliefs are affecting your world. What negative thoughts are generated from these limiting beliefs? Fortunately, because I have the tools to help other people examine their beliefs and thoughts, I was able to use those tools for myself and find amazing possibilities that turned into realities for myself and my family.
When you choose to live a conscious life, you allow yourself to constantly be examining how the circumstances of your life are the result of your thinking and how you can change your thoughts to change your life.
What are you going to commit to today so that you can live a more conscious life?
