“Gratitude and Loving Yourself” a Commentary from Richard

November 29, 2012 — Richard

Self-Love. Some days this is really difficult. Rosemary writes everything is perfect just as it is right now in this moment; everything is in agreement with The Plan; everything is unfolding just as it needs to, bringing the perfect Plan into reality. Yes, we have lessons and are learning lessons, everyday, with every unfolding moment. And as we learn these lessons we move into next moments that are also perfect because we have experienced (maybe even learned) these lessons.

And the first step toward self-love is gratitude for self and the lessons being learned. OK, then I have a lot to be grateful for! Examples abound every day. I just got back from the post office, went to get my reading glasses out of my pocket (where I “always” put them) only to come up short; no glasses. So I search every pocket, in the car and various places I may have left them. No luck. I get angry, especially with myself for misplacing my “stupid glasses”! (As if they were suppose to remember where I left them!)

Over-reaction? Of course! Yet another lesson in – what? Patience with myself, always putting things where they “belong”, mindfulness? I’m reminded of a Zen story about a monk who goes to his master believing he is ready for the test of enlightenment. The monk dashes through the rain and puddles with his trusty umbrella to his master’s hut, bows and humbly kneels before the master fully prepared. The master asks: “On which side of the door did you leave your umbrella?” Unable to answer the monk even more humbly withdraws to meditate on mindfulness for another 7 years!

Gratitude for the lessons is one of the lessons! I am alive and healthy and unharmed. I can return to the post office tomorrow to see if I left my glasses there. Meanwhile I have a spare pair. And they are only “drug-store” reading glasses; easily replaced. Were they worth the anger and upset at their loss? Of course not. Did my anger at myself gain anything other than upset that extended to others in my presence? Not at all. Did I learn a lesson here? Maybe. Will I lose something in the future. Certainly. And will I learn the lesson today so that the next time I lose that thing I can let it go, forgive myself for the lapse and move on? Only with continued practice!

We are all every moment of life practicing at being alive, being fully present, being conscious in every moment. This is what the lessons are all about: our opportunity to practice. And when we get pretty good at one lesson we get a new one to practice. This is where the acceptance comes in. This is where the self-forgiveness enters. When we are grateful for these opportunities we do, in fact, begin to move toward self-love.

I would add a second step toward this practice of self-love; the next step after gratitude is trust. We have to trust the Plan, that there is a Plan, that there is a purpose to it all. And we have to trust that our lessons are part of this Great Plan, that we are alive at this time with everyone and everything around us in perfect order and proper unfolding of the grand structure that is in process of becoming. I have to trust that losing my glasses today in some small, almost infinitesimal way, contributed to the process of becoming. One more opportunity to practice self-love in spite of my frustration with myself contributes to the Scheme.

This trust is part of the mystery. How can I possibly believe that my loss and my lesson on patience and self-forgiveness, self-love contribute to the Unfolding Perfection? There is no proof here; there is no evidence, not even a shred, that this incident is significant. But I trust that it is. And because I trust I continue to practice. And because I continue to practice, learn my lessons, I am ever so slowly improving myself, taking steps on my journey. And maybe, just maybe in some completely mysterious way, that I may never understand or realize, the world will be a better place.

Self-Love. Not a simple path. It begins with gratitude and moves to trust. And there is so much more…practice, practice, practice!

EXPLORATION: Gratitude and Loving Yourself

November 28, 2012 — Rosemary

In this season of Thanksgiving and holidays we focus on being grateful for the blessings in our lives and for the people who are sharing our journeys with us.  But have you taken the time to move into gratitude for yourself?

What traits do you have that you can feel grateful for?  What aspects of yourself do you need to learn to love?  Gratitude for yourself in all your parts is the first step toward loving yourself.

Most of us find it very easy to be grateful for the friends we have in our lives.  Some of us can be grateful for our families, or at least some family members.  But what about YOU?  We are so good at analyzing ourselves and finding fault when we would give someone else a lot more leeway.  Have you ever felt self-critical?  Do you catalogue your mistakes or the things you wish were different and focus your energy on these things?  Do you find it easier to focus on what you don’t like about yourself rather than those aspects that you do like?

If you answered ‘yes’ you’re not alone.  But consider that every single aspect of you is important to the WHO YOU ARE at this time in your life.  Every bit of you is lovable, whether you believe that at the moment or not.  WE asked you to come to Earth to be a part of the process of the unfolding of the Plan of the Universe and you agreed to join us.  Thank you.

So if you are perfect right now, in this present moment, and your role is to learn lessons and to help everyone around you to learn their lessons, then every thing that you have done and every aspect of who you are contributes to all of the lessons being learned.  Just as you are grateful for those around you, be grateful to yourself for being just what you agreed to be.

Everything that you see as a fault in yourself has some purpose, even if you don’t understand it at the moment.  If you wish to change something about yourself, then change it.  But do so from an energy of gratitude for the lessons that you have learned and from the space of not needing to be that way in the future.  This is a much higher energy than to be in disgust or frustration with yourself!

Each of us is on a path of personal growth if we are living a conscious life.  We are constantly moving forward by assessing our lives, changing that which we wish to change, lifting our awareness to higher perspectives and moving on to the next level of being.  We are learning lessons all the time.  Whatever we see in ourselves is serving a purpose or has served a purpose on our journey.  Being in gratitude for ourselves is the starting place for loving ourselves.

Accept yourself and every moment of your life up until this point.  Every backward glance over your timeline can carry with it an appreciation for all that you have learned.  Some lessons came clearly and easily and others were difficult or tedious to learn.  You might still be in the midst of some tough lessons or you might be in a more peaceful moment in your life.  And every single lesson has brought you a step further on the path of personal growth.  Every aspect of your person has been a loving contributor to every lesson.  Be grateful. And love every aspect of yourself.

Loving yourself is not just an emotional thing.  It is an important step along your personal journey.  I declare today ‘Love Your Wonderful Self Day’!  I love you just as you are.  Now take that to the mirror and say, ‘I love you!’ to the reflection you see there.  And express your gratitude for at least 1 part of you.  Smile.  Congratulations!

INSPIRATION: Are You Flipping Out Over Something?

October 24, 2012 — Rosemary

It seems today as if there is always something to ‘Flip Out’ over!  What has you feeling this way today?

I sometimes hear clients longing for simpler lives or less stress or at least less drama in their lives, but they are really wishing for something to change about their circumstances without a thought to how they can change themselves.

Flipping Out happens when we don’t have enough resources in our tool box to deal with what is happening in our environment.  If you can reach into your Resource Tool Box and pull out just what you need to do in this circumstance, then you just do that and there’s no need to get too excited.  But how often are you perfectly prepared for exactly what is going on?

Let me say here that I am not talking about going into denial and pretending that nothing big is happening!  Sticking your fingers in your ear and singing, ‘La, la, la, la!’ won’t manage the stress of the circumstances, although, I admit, sometimes that seems like an attractive behavior choice.  Denial invites the Universe to keep bringing the lesson to us, over and over again, with perhaps more severity each time until we learn what we are to learn.

What tools have you been developing to prepare you for whatever might come your way?  Are you on a path of constant personal growth, seeking new skills, finding new opportunities to explore ideas?  Are you committed to your own personal, spiritual growth as a journey of exploration?  How you answer these questions will determine how well you can handle what happens around you.

Just as an athlete doesn’t wake up one morning and decide to win a gold medal in discus throwing without training for that exact sport, so, too, must you train for the circumstances that haven’t yet come into your life.

When the doctor says, ‘There’s something of concern going on here,’ or you get the phone call that, ‘There’s been an accident,’ how will you respond?

I pray that you never hear those words but it could be something else that throws you for a loop and the resources must already be available to you or you will find it more difficult to cope.

So what are you doing today, this week, this year to expand the tools in your Resource Tool Box?  Are you taking a class?  Working with a coach/counselor?  Reading self-help books?  In a group with speakers who teach you tools?  Attending seminars and conferences with content-rich programs for personal growth?

This is not an activity that can be postponed indefinitely!  Now is the time to prevent Flip Out!

Learning meditation can be a great start.  Breathe, hit the pause button, take a moment to collect yourself.  Allow thoughts to arise but to keep flowing onward, without attaching to the thoughts.  Give yourself permission to focus on your breath and to let go of thoughts and emotions that come up for you.  Give yourself permission to simply BE.

Sign up for a class on a psychological or spiritual topic that intrigues you.  Read a book that someone has recommended to you.  Find a group of explorers that you can join to study new ideas.  Work with a coach who can help you to develop the tools that are best for you.

Fill up the Resource Tool Box and you’ll be ready if and when something happens.  Won’t it be nice to have the confidence of knowing that, even if you never need to use the tools, you won’t have to resort to ‘Flipping Out’?

MUSE-INGS: Personal Growth is the Ticket to the Future

October 17, 2012 — Rosemary

I’ve been ‘muse-ing’ a lot lately about the Path of Personal Growth. We all seem to be facing a lot of lessons, opportunities to choose growth or stagnation. It’s sometimes easier to think about staying where we are instead of moving forward. It might even seem as if the path of least resistance is to stand still.

But I have learned that the currents of change are rocking us. Standing still takes more energy than going with the flow. Moving forward is the energy that carries us while trying to stand still or, horrors!, to go backward, takes more energy.

What does this mean for the 21st Century human? It means that every moment is a moment of choice. At any given point we are making a choice about our direction.

Do you feel you are fighting the tide of change while just trying to hang onto what you have? Is it getting harder to stand still in your life? Does some part of y ou long for a change, even if you don’t know what that is? When fear of change has you in its grip, it’s easy to think that standing still is the choice that takes the least energy. But that is a fallacy.

Face the fear of the unknown. When the energies of Earth existence are carrying humanity forward, it is time to learn to trust that the Universe has a plan that is working out as it should. There is a greater intelligence at work. And we are all in this together. You are not alone in this moment of change.

Personal growth is the ticket to the future. The message of 2012 is to commit to this growth. How exciting to be on the Planet at this amazing time of Transformation! Your Soul asked to be allowed to be here. We live in amazing times. And we agreed to share the journey with each other.

In this Universe’s Plan, each of us has an important role to play. We grow into this role just as an actor grows into their part while the  director leads them. Are you willing to shape yourself into the person of that important role? Are you willing to do the work required?

We are promised that the resources will be there when we need them. Our side of the equation is to commit Time and Treasure, to ‘prime the pump,’ as it were. When we send a signal out to the Universe that we are truly committed to our growth, then everything else is free to flow to us. Everything that we need will arrive as it is needed.

How have you been trying to push against the current of change? How have you been trying to ignore the internal push to move forward? What circumstances, situations or relationships have you been unwilling to examine in case the guidance is to let them go?

THIS is the work of 2012. Be the seed that Mother Earth has been nurturing. Blossom. Push through that soil into the Light. Be the flower you were meant to become.

It is time to GROW!!!

And remember, the seed doesn’t do mind games on itself to try to avoid growth. It just allows the nutrients to come when needed and it blossoms forth to be what it was meant to be – no questions asked!!!

PS: On Wednesday, October 24, 2012, I’m offering a 2-hour workshop on A Meta*Physical Checkup. Space is limited! You can register onlin: Click for Details.

MYSTIC MESSAGE from The Divine Feminine: Be the Seed and GROW!

October 16, 2012 — Rosemary

Dear Ones,

It is with the expectation that you will continue to grow that we share this message with you. You are as a seed that has been planted in the fertile soil of the Earth garden. The Mother Earth who loves you and who asked that you be planted on her surface gives you tender, nourishing care, with water and nutrients and Sunlight. You are held in the supportive hands that help you to grow.

Are you as committed to your own growth as Mother Earth is to supporting that very growth? Or are you willing to stay where you are, locked in the beliefs that have held you in place for so long? Now is the time to decide. Now is the time to choose.

Those who choose the path of personal growth will commit Time and Treasure to that path. Are you willing to join this group? Know that you will have every support, every resource should you choose this. Who will be your teacher, your guide, your mentor? Who  will be with you on the journey as your cohort, your colleagues, your fellow students? Be wise about these choices!

For when you are on a path of personal growth you must surround yourself with those who are on a similar path. If you attempt to partner with someone who is not committed to their growth or who desires to hold you back from yours, then your growth will be stymied and you will spend your energy staying in place instead of moving forward. This is not to pass a judgment on others, but to encourage you to find people with whom you can share your journey who will support you. The others must find their own way.

Many of you may be examining relationships as you read this, wondering if these relationships are right for you at this time. Make the decision now, for it is time for you to propel yourself forward, and being connected to someone, some circumstance, some job or location, that does not support your growth is like having an anchor of concrete chained to your ankle. It is time to grow.

Are you afraid? Is it really the fear that you believe it to be or is it another, more subtle, fear that is holding you back? Examine your fears. Do you fear your own abilities? Your lack of funds? Your confusion about the next step? Or do you fear your own inner power? Your greatness? Your Light? Be honest with yourself.

Commit to your growth. Find others with whom to share the path. Find your tribe. And when you commit to your growth, add the commitment of Time and Treasure. Are you willing to spend your most precious resource, your Time, on activities for your personal growth? Or is this a priority that is left for when everything else on your to-do list is done? Are you willing to commit your Treasure, your money, to this task or are you only looking for that which you can obtain for free so that you are sending the Universe a signal that you aren’t totally committed to your growth?

Seeking growth does not have to require a lot of your Time or your Treasure, but your commitment must be backed up energetically with that which is important to you. Even if you feel you don’t have much money at your disposal at the moment, what are you spending that money on? Perhaps you feel led to support a charity or cause that moves you, or you have found a class you would like to attend, or a book you would like to read or a mentor with whom you would like to work? Learn to ask yourself if your inner guidance is directing you to make that choice. Perhaps you can hire the mentor and borrow the book from the library, or give a donation of time to the cause or charity while paying for the class you wish to take. Ask yourself WHY and HOW you are making your decisions. Are you constantly moving in the direction of your personal growth?

Avoid those who wish to go backward, stay in place, or to hold you back from your growth. There is no time now to slow down!
Choose to grow and you will have all the resources you require! Go confidently in the direction of your growth and you will reach your dreams!

And so it is.

MYSTIC MESSAGE from The Divine Feminine: Once upon a time…

October 2, 2012 — Rosemary

Dear Ones,

Every day of your life is a Fairy Tale Day. It starts with ‘Once upon a time…’ and you write the rest of the story.

What are you writing today? Is there an ogre? A villain? A fairy godmother? A prince or princess? What perils will your main characters encounter? Will they choose might or diplomacy to solve their problems? Will there be a ‘happily ever after’ ending to today’s story?

Do you understand the responsibility of being the author of this fairy tale story? You are not only creating the script for yourself to follow today but for all those around you. And every morning you start over with a new ‘Once upon a time…’ beginning.

The original fairy tale stories that you were told as a child and that you have told to your children started as illustrations of life on Earth. There was a parallel to the lives of those who lived at the time of the creation of these stories. There was always a villain or an ogre lurking around the corner. There was always a rescuer waiting to swoop in and rescue the powerless. Some original stories did not have ‘happily ever after’ endings.

Now you live in the 21st Century Earth world that is crying out for the hope in the ‘happy’ fairy tale stories. What will you do to contribute to that longed-for hope?

If you are feeling that your life seems like one of the stories without the happy ending then you have not yet embraced the concept of yourself as the author of your own story. Whether or not you have doesn’t alter the circumstances but it does affect your power to write the ending.

Look around you at your life and notice that all the characters are in some way a reflection of a part of yourself. This is not to say that every ogre in your life means that you are an ogre toward others. It is merely to say that there might be a part of you that is bullying the rest of you into seeing circumstances as if you are the victim of outside ogres.

The truth is, Dear One, you can change the details of the story to reflect the life you desire rather than what you feel you have been dealt. You are not the victim today. If there is someone who is abusing you, then get yourself out of that situation and move forward with your life. But if you are honestly looking for your point of personal growth, it will probably not be at the hands of the fairy tale rescuer that you might wish would charge up on his white steed and swoop you into a happy ending.

You are your own rescuer. You have the power to ride your own white steed into the situation and change things. Claim that power. Visualize the circumstances shifting around you to support your own ‘happily ever after’ ending for today’s story.

And if you find yourself moving into distress over the past or the future, then you are not authoring today’s story, and this is the only page in the book that you have control over. You cannot change the past nor can you define the future until you take the actions called for by today. Your choices today define your future, so make your choices about today in the direction of the future you desire.

Not every circumstance can be changed in a day, but your story today can have great impact on your tomorrow. Write the fairy tale you want to live within, today.

And so it is.

MUSE-INGS: It’s 2012. Do You Know Where Your Transformation Is?

July 18, 2012 — Rosemary

Well, 2012 has certainly been an interesting year for us! And it’s only half over!

I’ve been teaching about the coming changes for 20 years as a spiritual teacher and intuitive advisor. It’s never been about hoarding food or building a concrete shelter.

Oh, I remember the days of the Cold War in the 1960s, living in Washington, DC where we had to keep a week’s supply of food and water and pillows, etc. at school in case there was a nuclear attack and we couldn’t leave the school building to get home. (Not sure now how much protection it would have been from a nuclear attack if we’d been huddled in the school cafeteria but at least the nuns would have been praying for us!) And on Saturdays at noon the air raid sirens would be tested at the local schools and all traffic would have to stop for a few minutes. Everyone walked around on pins and needles wondering if the red button would be pushed. No one knew what would happen.

Some people have approached 2012 with the same kind of caution and preparedness. Having shelters built at great cost so they could live for a week or a month or a year. Stockpiling food and water and, maybe, guns and ammunition. Others have poo-pooed the idea that 2012 would bring with it any changes at all, discounting anything the Mayans might have predicted and relegating discussions of 2012 to ‘new age mumbo-jumbo.’

2012 is here. What is your experience so far? Are you seeing anything in and around you changing?

I have been focused on helping clients to leap forward in their personal and professional growth, for, really, those are intertwined. It’s time to claim your power and live your purpose. Are you ready? Have you done the preparatory work to leap ahead?

Personal growth work doesn’t mean the kind of therapy that was popular back in the 1960s and 1970s when we were worrying about the nuclear bomb. Today it means learning to examine your life and the world around you through the lens of this question, ‘What am I to learn from this?’ Everything has meaning. Every experience that you have is a growth experience, an opportunity for learning. Everything that happens is not happening to victimize you but to provide you with this opportunity to learn something – about you, about the world, about life.

Have you done the work to educate yourself about your typical responses to change, to external events? Do you know your instinctual reactions so that you can choose consciously how you want to respond? Have you identified your Life Purpose, the reason your Soul incarnated in this lifetime, so that you can bring your life into alignment with your Purpose? Are you willing to grow? To learn? To change?

Transformation sounds great, but it requires the shedding of the old as you grow into the new you.

I was bitten by a snake recently. I am fine, but a couple of weeks after that, we saw an empty snakeskin at my sister’s home, reminding me of the shedding of the old so that the new could be formed. Shortly after that, the Waldo Canyon Wildfire engulfed our neighborhood in Colorado Springs. We had to make peace with the possibility that we would be letting go of all our belongings that were still in that house. Blessedly, the house stayed intact although 346 homes in our area were destroyed and many more were damaged. Now, we are able to help a family displaced by that fire by selling our house to them so that they can start to rebuild their lives after losing everything.

What’s happening in your 2012 world? How much transformation are you prepared for? Are you living your Life Purpose? Are you living a Conscious Life?

It’s 2012. It’s time now.

MYSTIC MESSAGE from The Divine Feminine: How’s 2012 Treating You?

July 17, 2012 — Rosemary

Dear Ones,

The energies of 2012 are speeding up and those who are Awakened Ones are feeling the energetic shifts in their personal, professional and political lives. Are you awake?

In personal lives, transformations are occurring at a rapid pace. People are dealing with changes that they had never imagined. Relationships, homes, health, finances – all areas are showing signs of restructuring. How is the energy of transformation showing up in your life today?

Professional lives are shifting in enormous ways around the globe. Businesses are being forced to reassess their mission and their relationship to employees. Employees are rethinking loyalty to a company that displays no loyalty to them. Many are shifting their energies from being employed by a big company to creating their own company and becoming entrepreneurs. Taking charge of generating one’s own income is a form of financial independence that relying on a paycheck from someone else cannot equal.

One’s political life doesn’t really mean being a member of a particular political party. Rather, it refers to one’s life as a member of the ‘body politic’ or the collection of individuals in a certain place. Are you examining your role in your community? Are you assessing your values as they relate to others around you? Are you able to make decisions considering the well-being of all rather than your own selfish desires? Are you acting in a way that creates a healthy relationship with those around you and with Mother Earth? Are you cognizant of generations to come and what your choices today mean to those future generations?

2012 has long been heralded as the year that would bring with it major changes. Many have posited what those changes would be. We would tell you that the place to look for change is within yourself and within your own sphere of life. Are you actively pursuing your personal growth? This is really your only mission for these days of 2012.

Personal growth is the path to change for your higher good. One can never stand still, no matter how hard you try or how much you resist change. The energy of transformation is around and inside of you. Your DNA has been awaiting this moment in time so that you could blossom into the New Human that the evolution of human consciousness has created. 2012 energies support your shifting from the old paradigms into the new. If you resist, you will be attempting to hold back a mighty push of evolutionary energy. Do you really want to spend yourself fighting that push?

Resisting change is really a choice to move backward. Awakened Ones are people who are willing to evolve. Knowing that change is a part of the evolutionary process allows you to ‘go with the flow,’ to move in the direction of greater consciousness, higher awareness.

Reach for this growth. Examine yourself in the light of 2012 consciousness. Your Life Purpose is waiting to be expressed as a part of helping humanity to its higher level of understanding, an expression of the Consciousness of the Universe.

Self-examination for personal growth allows whatever is happening around you in 2012 to have meaning. You are a part of the evolutionary process underway. You can choose to resist and go backward or you can choose to move forward. There is no standing still.

Which direction will you choose?

MUSE-INGS: Where’s your ‘Lens of Learning’?

May 30, 2012 — Rosemary

Life can certainly leave us myopic when we focus only on our self and what we want. We can forget that we are living in the Earth School so that we can spend this time on the Planet to facilitate our Soul’s growth. Maybe we each need to wear a magnifying glass necklace (I happen to own one!) to remind us of our possibilities for learning in every situation.

When people work with me in the intensity of A Day With Your Muse, a full day session wherein we work through a process to bring clarity to their vision and a plan for implementing that vision, we often spend a lot of time working through family of origin issues or internal blocks that they might not have realized were holding them back. So, even though they think they are focused on their business or their future, it is the personal growth work that allows them to experience the quantum leap forward in their desired success.

What are you not learning today? What can you not see clearly because you think that ‘personal growth work’ means setting aside time to meditate or journal or have counseling/coaching sessions? Maybe the learnings are present all the time and all you have to do is notice them.

Remember, we human beings are learning machines. Watch a baby. Every moment she is learning something new. Every step a toddler takes is feeding information to her about what walking is all about, and sometimes what it is NOT about!

If you think that you do not have time and/or energy to devote to working on personal growth at this time in your life, then think again. Look at every item on your to-do list as a task under the category of ‘Personal Growth Work’ and the actual task you are accomplishing as the classroom in which you are doing the learning. The energy is already expended. The focus can be two-fold: get the task done AND learn something for your personal growth.

Maybe our brains aren’t really that great at multi-tasking, but we are certainly good at creating meaning in our efforts and experiences. We learn what works and what doesn’t work. We try something. We interact with others and create ways to be successful in those interactions.

And we can learn something about ourselves, about how the world works, about what our roles are, and about how we can continue to grow through every experience in our daily lives.
