  • Owning Your Power to Choose

    Owning Your Power to Choose

    Today’s Miracle Moment Is About Owning Your Power to Choose…

    We have the privilege of working with lots of people all over the world, and what we’ve noticed is that many people are stuck in a pattern of giving away their power to choose.

    Do you ever find yourself in that pattern? For example, if someone asks you “What would you like to do?” do you respond with, “I don’t care, it’s completely up to you. You decide where we go and what we do.” When you respond in this way, you are giving away your power.

    It may appear that allowing someone else to choose for you is selfless, giving, kind, and generous. Maybe you think (often subconsciously) that people will like or approve of you more, and it’ll be easier to get love. However, this is actually unhealthy as you are giving away your power to choose and putting it into someone else’s hands. When you let someone else choose for you, if things don’t work out well, you can end up blaming that person and feeling resentful of their decision. This is often referred to as codependent behavior. That is not living in the Miracle Zone.

    Learning how to make choices that are in alignment with our highest good is what helps us live more in the Miracle Zone.

    If you’re not confident or comfortable in your ability to make choices that are aligned with your highest good, the best way to get started is to practice making small choices that will have a smaller impact on your life. This practice will allow your subconscious to gain confidence in your ability to make wise choices.

    If you avoid making choices, then you’re not exercising your free will. Your free will is what ignites your vital force. Your very ability to be here in a passionate living body is tied to your free will and animating the spiritual fire within.

    If you don’t ever vote, if you don’t ever pick or voice your opinion and your preference, then you’re constantly snuffing out this fire in your belly. Your heart may start to weaken, and you may become depressed. You may become confused, lethargic or disoriented. You may even have a difficult time being satisfied with anything that happens. You can feel victimized, as though nothing is going your way, and feel there’s nothing you can do about it. That’s what results from not taking your opportunity to choose.

    Exercising your personal power is especially vital now, at election time. Instead of giving your power away with inaction, claim your personal power by casting your political vote. Make your personal choice. This is a perfect time! We encourage everyone to claim the personal power of choice by casting your vote. Let’s rock the vote!

    We encourage you to take back your power to choose (in all things).

    This isn’t being selfish. This is about taking care of yourself, and in doing so, you are claiming your personal power of authenticity. This helps to empower your life in healthy ways.

    Over the next several days, start casting your vote and expressing your opinion more. By doing so, you’re telling the Universe—I’m in. I mean business and I’m here to play in a big way. The Universe has no choice but to respond to you. That’s what it means to live in the Miracle Zone.

    Happy choosing!

  • The Miraculous Power of Trust

    The Miraculous Power of Trust

    Today’s Miracle Moment is about the Miraculous Power of Trust…

    Wouldn’t it be nice to live in a place of complete peace, a place where you profoundly trust that you’re being taken care of by a Universal power? Where you trust that this Universal power is with you every moment? Where you live with the certainty that the Universe is really out to support you, that it’s on your side, that it’s got your back?

    We know that this can feel hard to believe on any given day. Right now with COVID-19 cases back on the rise and a polarizing presidential election coming up in the U.S. there’s certainly a lot going on in the world…And in this moment, believing the Universe has your back can feel like a REALLY BIG stretch.

    But, for just a few minutes, let’s suspend any resistance and lean into a place of trust. We often try so hard to control everything in our lives that we forget the power of putting our faith in the Universe and just letting go.

    However, once you get into the habit of doing all that you can from your humanness and trusting when you get that intuitive message that it’s time to let go and surrender to a Higher Power; and you actually do it, you’ll begin experiencing a deep sense of peace and wellbeing.

    Throughout history, the wisest men and women have known that their highest good came from trusting and letting go, from surrendering. We don’t mean the kind of surrender that is “losing a battle” kind of surrender, not the “white flag” kind of surrender, but the kind that is letting go of personal limitations and aligning totally with an intelligence and an energy that’s greater than ourselves.

    It’s the energy of Let Thy Will Be Done.

    If you can surrender your resistance, you’ll be able to tap into a higher wisdom. Instead of saying “no” and resisting everything that’s happening, simply say “yes” to the guidance of spirit.

    Here’s a practice that we invite you to try…

    It’s about asking for guidance from the Universe and being led by your soul throughout the day. It comes from a teaching in A Course In Miracles.

    Here’s what you do…

    At the beginning of your day, simply ask three questions…

    What would Spirit have me do today?
    Where would Spirit have me go today?
    What would Spirit have me say, and to whom?

    Then, as you move through your day, listen to your inspiration from Spirit and say “yes” to whatever those answers are…trusting life’s unfolding.

    If you get stuck, ask the question again. When you move through the day like this, when you trust that Spirit is guiding you and has your back, you’re going to find yourself living more and more in the Miracle Zone.
