  • Listening to Your Inner Voice

    Listening to Your Inner Voice

    Today’s Miracle Moment is the miracle of listening to your inner voice…

    Have you noticed that the times you had the courage to listen to your inner voice the results were better than you could have even predicted? And not only for you but for everyone else involved?

    What we’ve noticed throughout the years that we’ve been sharing knowledge on how to live a miraculous life is that when people listen to their inner voice and act on the messages they receive, it always leads them to their greatest good. In fact, I don’t think we’ve ever had anyone say to us, “I listened to my inner voice and I really wished I hadn’t. It was a disaster.”

    When we say your “inner voice,” we’re not talking about the critical parent, or the scared child or the addictive impulses that speak to you from inside your head.

    The Inner Voice we’re talking about speaks to you from a place of silence within.

    It speaks quietly and gently although sometimes firmly from the part of you that can see the bigger picture, the reality that resides in the arena of all possibilities, not in the arena of fears and “but what if…”

    Your Inner Voice knows the perfection of creation and that we live in a benevolent universe. The Inner Voice is patiently waiting knowing that if you’d only listen your life would be so much more miraculous.

    This voice is always trying to get you to listen but many choose to listen to the other voice instead – the one that responds to doubt and fear because it’s louder and often more logical OR to the advice and opinions of others who are seeing the world from their perspective, not yours.

    Debra recently had an experience of listening to her inner voice and I (Marci) was the one who tried to say, “Don’t do it,” until I realized what I was doing and I turned it around and gave her my full support and more miracles than we could have imagined have resulted…. 

    I (Debra) am happy to share this story…

    Several months ago, my inner voice started saying to me that it was time to move on from Your Year of Miracles and pursue some of my other dreams. I have to say that I didn’t listen at first because it made no logical sense. I love YOM. I love our community. I’ve seen all of the amazing miracles that occur in people’s lives who are in our program and the quality and quantity of these miracles just keeps growing every year from soul mates found to book deals signed, from long standing health problems disappearing to money appearing from seemingly nowhere…And not only finding love but people sharing that their self love has blossomed and so much more. Why would I want to move on from this?

    But that gentle voice was very persistent and I realized I had to live what we taught and I had to listen to that voice for my own happiness and personal truth and because I knew that when you do what’s best for yourself it will always be what’s best for everyone else. So I told Marci I have to follow that voice and at first she resisted, because, as we said, Your Year of Miracles was only getting better and better and it made no logical sense for me to move on—but listening to your inner voice is seldom logical….

    So we both took a deep breath and did what we teach others to do, we listened to our inner voices and trusted in the Universe and the magic in my life has been beyond what I could imagine and what is happening in Your Year of Miracles is well, miraculous. Actually, beyond miraculous. Proving to us both, once again, that when you follow you inner voice it will not only be good for you but good for everyone else.

    I (Marci) will certainly miss working this closely with you, as it has been a blast these past 5 years, but you are deeply embedded in the fiber of the Year of Miracles program, so you’re always with us.

    And the universe is always supporting expansion and evolution, so we have invited two extraordinary women to join us in the 2019 Your Year of Miracles program. The amazing Dr. Sue Morter, and the amazing Lisa Garr.

    Dr. Sue Morter is a Master of Bio-energetic Medicine and founder of the Morter Institute for Bio-Energetics. She is true visionary in the field of energy medicine and natural healing.

    Lisa Garr is the founder of the Aware Show, Inspirations on GIAM TV and Becoming Aware on Hay House radio as well as being a beloved talk show host on KPFK-FM in LA and WBAI-FM in New York.

    We have all known each other for many years, we are soul sisters and we are looking forward to the next evolution in the Miracle Zone.

    Debra, you and I are always family, you are an exceptional woman and we all completely support you on your next adventure that will certainly be a great contribution to bettering people’s lives.

    So as Marci and I continue to be each other’s biggest cheerleaders and are more committed than ever to follow our inner voices to our greatest good, let’s all commit that in the coming weeks we’ll listen to that inner voice even if it seems to be leading us in a different direction than our logical minds would have us go, and please share with us the miracles that we know will unfold for you.

    So since this is my last miracle moment (although I’ll be back as a guest once in awhile), next time along with Marci you will enjoy the amazing Dr. Sue Morter.

    I send my love and look forward to us meeting each other again someday soon, in the Miracle Zone.

  • Staying in a Place of Peace

    Staying in a Place of Peace

    Today’s Miracle Moment is about staying in a place of peace…

    The #1 question we receive from people all over the world is….”Is it possible to remain in a happy and peaceful state when you’re surrounded by negative people?”

    Our answer is YES, but staying positive around negative people is definitely an art!

    You can probably relate to this scenario:

    You’re having a great day, feeling in the flow, loving the energy in the Miracle Zone, when all of a sudden – wham! You bump into someone who’s in a foul mood, who wants to gossip about others, who has an endless list of what’s going wrong or just has a negative vibe. The next thing you know, you’re brought down and feeling negative and upset yourself.

    Why does this happen? Why does your wave of positivity seem to crash when it bumps up against a wall of negativity?

    Well, there’s a law of physics that says when two objects are vibrating near each other, the one vibrating with the greatest intensity will dominate. In relationships, this means that the person with the strongest emotional state sets the tone of any interaction – and like a tuning fork, you start vibrating at their frequency.

    So the next time you’re in a positive, happy, miraculous state of mind and you happen upon someone who decidedly isn’t, you have a choice to make: You can either consciously attempt to have the person synchronize with your emotional state or by default, you will synchronize with theirs.

    It’s probably easier to make choice #1 when you don’t know the person well so you’re not as reactive. It takes a lot more resolve when you’re invested in the relationship. Just know that you’re giving your friend or loved one a great gift by not indulging their negativity. Misery may love company but the result is…you’re both miserable.

    The more you practice all the techniques to stay in the Miracle Zone that we share in our Miracle Moments, the more you’ll build up a strong “emotional immune system” that prevents you from catching another’s negativity, and your peace and well-being will not be effected.

    Until then, here are a few more tips for staying in the Miracle Zone even in the face of someone who’s firmly entrenched in the Negativity Zone:

    1. Keep your emotional balance by tuning in to your body when confronted with negativity. Notice any sensations arising in your physiology. Just the act of presencing those sensations will bring you into the present moment and prevent you from having a knee-jerk reaction. Your powerful attention will facilitate the dissolution of the uncomfortable sensation and restore you to a state of peace.

    2. Most people who are upset are not deliberately trying to bring you down. They just want their feelings to be acknowledged, so you might say something like, “I can see why you might feel that way,” or, “I see that this situation is really upsetting to you.” Then gently without making them wrong and without judgement (and definitely without blame) offer something positive about the situation. Be light-hearted and they might see the situation from a new perspective.

    3. If you can’t think of anything positive to say, know that simply staying neutral in the face of negativity is a gift in itself.

    Most importantly, you want to have your positive, miraculous vibration be the dominant vibration – so just like a tuning fork, you’ll bring your friends, without them even knowing it, into the Zone where peace flows and life can be filled with miracles.
