  • Trust in the Universe

    Trust in the Universe

    Today’s Miracle Moment Is About Trusting the Universe…

    In Your Year of Miracles program, we have Five Foundations for Living in the Miracle Zone. These are the core principles to live by to feel in the flow with the Universe and experience greater synchronicities and more miracles in your daily life. Today, I’m going to talk about the first of these foundations, which is Trust In the Universe.

    Trust in the Universe is to embrace that we live in a benevolent Universe where divine perfection is at work in every situation. With this perspective, we trust that we’re being taken care of on some level. One of our favorite quotes of all time is from Albert Einstein who said, “The most important question you can ask yourself is whether this is a benevolent Universe.” People who are happy and are living in the Miracle Zone answer, “Yes.” That doesn’t mean that life is always going their way, but it means that they believe that life has their back and is always supporting them.

    A dear friend of mine, the brilliant and amazing Jack Canfield, talks about being an “inverse paranoid.” A paranoid thinks that everything’s out to get them. An “inverse paranoid” thinks that everything is out to support them.

    If you feel challenged in trusting in the Universe and in having faith that everything is going to turn out okay, we invite you to do the following Central Channel Breath:

    • Breathe through your nose, and imagine your breath starting about two feet above your head.
    • At this point above your head, take a breath into your body right through the center of your brain, through your throat, into your heart, and into your belly.
    • Breathe in and make your belly big.
    • Exhale down through this center, right into the earth.
    • Take a deep breath up from the earth, inhaling up into your belly, From your belly, exhale straight up and out above your head through this Central Channel.

    As you continue to breathe in this way, this opens the Central Channel and it begins to animate your subtle anatomy—your energy field. This energy field has a higher vibrational frequency than your body does.

    If you want to have greater faith and trust, you need to have a higher vibration of energy running through your system. Then it’s easier to trust and have faith. The energies of faith and trust are such high frequency energies that they don’t reside inside your body, but in the subtle energy field around your body, and specifically in an energy center just about two feet above your head. As you practice breathing in this way, as you begin to include the Central Channel Breath in your repertoire of tools that you have to work with in trusting the Universe, things will change for the better.

    Over the next week, I invite you to practice the Central Channel Breath, and have trust and faith that the Universe is friendly—that benevolence is surrounding you.

    In the comments section below, please share your experiences of practicing the Central Channel Breath and of being an “inverse paranoid” who is trusting in the Universe. I love hearing from you!

  • The True Meaning of Abundance

    The True Meaning of Abundance

    There’s a lot of confusion about how to manifest abundance. You’ve probably heard tips like think positively, visualize abundance, or recite daily affirmations. Maybe you’ve tried some of these techniques for a while, but you didn’t see any big changes.  

    You might start to wonder, “What am I doing wrong? Is it really possible to attract abundance into my life?”

    The Universe wants to shower its infinite abundance on us. If that’s not what we’re experiencing, it’s because there is a conscious or unconscious block within. 

    And one block might be that we’re misunderstanding what abundance truly is. 

    People often look at abundance as something outside of them that they have to go out and get.  With this thinking, you’re inherently coming from a place of lack. All of your energy is focused on attracting what’s “out there,” like getting a new job or coming into a windfall. 

    The truth is that abundance is just energy and you are made of all the energy of the universe. 

    Abundance doesn’t come from outside of you–it comes from inside of you!

    Thousands of years ago, masters of consciousness said that one of man’s biggest downfalls was getting involved in the material world. This idea has been confused over the ages, leading people to believe that money was sinful. What they really meant was that humanity gets too involved in focusing on the outer already manifested world. 

    We’re on this planet to master our innate abilities as creators. 

    So how can you shift from seeking abundance in the outside world to creating abundance from within? 

    The vibrational frequency of abundance is a very high frequency. If we’ve been operating from a place of struggle and lack, we aren’t vibrating at the same frequency of abundant money flowing through our lives. Because our bodies are built to maintain homeostasis and to resist change, our bodies stay safe by staying in old familiar feelings. 

    By familiarizing your system with the vibrational frequency of abundance, love, joy, and satisfaction, you build new vibrational familiarity in your cells. Then, those patterns can become sustainable.

    Here’s a practice to familiarize your system to the vibrational frequency of abundance: 

    Notice any time that you have a feeling of joyfulness, love, and gratitude. Pay attention to what those moments feel like in your body and practice feeling them for no reason at all.

    Take a deep breath and breathe in the feeling of “That’s for me.” 

    The more and more that you practice feelings of abundance and breathe into those feelings, the more that you are building the circuits to maintain that frequency. 

    Remember, you have the power of the universe within you, waiting to shower its abundance on you.

    “As long as we remain vigilant at building our internal abundance—an abundance of integrity, an abundance of forgiveness, an abundance of service, an abundance of love—then external lack is bound to be temporary.”  — Marianne Williamson

    Please leave a comment and share your experience practicing experiencing the feelings of joyfulness, gratitude and abundance! 

  • How to Help the World Through Getting in the Miracle Zone

    How to Help the World Through Getting in the Miracle Zone

    Today’s Miracle Moment is about how getting in the Miracle Zone is the best thing you can do for the world…

    During these incredibly unpredictable times, we’ve all experienced the effects of what’s going on in the world. As someone who cares deeply about humanity and wants to make a positive impact on the planet, you might be asking yourself, “What can I do to help the world?” 

    Here at Your Year of Miracles, we believe that the best thing you can do for the world is to first get into the Miracle Zone yourself.  

    Ultimately, we can only take care of others through helping ourselves first. Here’s a Buddhist teaching story that illustrates that. 

    There once were two acrobats. One acrobat was the teacher, a poor widower named Akil, and the other was the student, a young girl by the name of Meda. They performed every day on the streets in order to earn enough to eat.

    Their act consisted of Akil balancing a tall bamboo pole on his head while Meda climbed slowly to the top. Once at the top, she balanced there while Akil walked down the street. They both had to maintain complete focus and balance in order to prevent any injury from occurring and to complete the performance. 

    One day, Akil said to the young girl: “Listen, Meda, I will watch you and you watch me, so that we can help each other maintain concentration and balance and prevent an accident. Then, we’ll surely earn enough to eat.”

    But the wise little girl answered, “Dear master, I think it would be better for each of us to watch ourselves. To look after oneself means to look after both of us. That way, I’m sure we’ll avoid any accidents and earn enough to eat.” Sure enough, the little girl was correct, and that’s how they successfully did their act together.

    In this example, the young girl puts her focus on herself first, because she knew that it was up to her to maintain the concentration needed to successfully do their act. It was up to the teacher to maintain his own concentration as well. 

    This is true in our lives. Sometimes we get overly focused on how we can help everyone else around us, and our energy ends up being dispersed, distracted and diluted outside of ourselves. 

    By taking care of ourselves first, we can get grounded, centered, and available to contribute to the greater good.

    Scientific experiments are showing us that we can have an effect on our own DNA. Even more amazingly, experiments are also showing that our own DNA can affect the people around us, too. 

    The people and the environment around us respond to the vibrational frequency that we are emitting energetically–and that means our positive vibration positively impacts the world around us.  

    By dropping into ourselves and taking great care of our body, minds, and souls, we actually set up the vibrational environment that supports other people to do the same thing for themselves. And so, the more we get into the Miracle Zone, the more we support the whole world to do the same!

    We can support one another by responsibly being stewards of our own vibrational power to impact the world through the way we care for ourselves. 

    As you live your life more and more in the Miracle Zone, you’re creating an incredible impact on the people around you and around the world. 

    This week, we ask you to explore what you can do to take care of yourself so you can also be of best service to the world.

    “Don’t ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and go do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” –Howard Thurman

    In the comments below, please share your experiences of positively impacting the environment around you by getting more and more in the Miracle Zone. 

  • Your Hidden Superpower for Manifesting Miracles

    Your Hidden Superpower for Manifesting Miracles

    Did you know that you have a hidden superpower for manifesting miracles?

    This is a superpower you use every single day, and in fact… every single moment.

    Your superpower is your attention!

    What we put our attention on is what grows stronger in our life. 

    Energy goes where our attention flows. 

    The challenge is, we might habitually put our attention and focus on what’s going wrong in our lives. This is due to how our brains are wired–to look for the problem!

    When our ancestors had to be on the constant lookout for threat, this part of our brains saved our lives. In our modern world, that part of our brains continues to be on the constant search for potential threats and problems. This instinct can still save our lives in times of danger, so it’s still an important part of our biology. However…  

    As we go for our goals in our everyday lives, we must consciously retrain our minds to focus on expecting positive outcomes rather than negative outcomes. 

    Otherwise, we’ll continue to attract stressful situations, as we’re a match for that vibration.

    One great way to retrain your mind is to put your attention on the miracles that are already showing up in your life. For example, in our Your Year of Miracles program, we give our participants a Miracles Journal at the start of the year so they can track their miracles all year long. This powerful practice retrains the mind to look for the positive and attract even more miracles their way.

    You can also give your loving attention to the miracles you want to manifest. Here are four ways to do that:

    1. Thoughts: Put your thoughts on what you want to manifest, not on what you don’t want to manifest. Worry is actively imagining what you don’t want to manifest. Be careful of what you feed your mind and be aware of how much negativity you are letting in. Be an optimist—someone who understands that there can be issues, but knows they’ll find solutions.
    2. Words: Words are powerful—choose them carefully! “I am” is one of the most powerful phrases in the English language. Speak of what you want to create rather than what you don’t want.
    3. Feelings: The success that we want lives in an energetic vibration, and our job is to align ourselves with that energetic vibration. We connect to that vibration through our feelings. A few ways to put ourselves into the feeling state of what we’re wanting to manifest are:

      Acting as if: Act as though your intention has already manifested–this helps you to become an energetic match to what you want to attract.

      Gratitude: As you feel grateful for each step along the way, you move into the energy of greater and greater success. Be grateful in advance for what you are intending, as though it’s already happened.

      Visualization: Imagining, seeing, and feeling your outcome anchors the energy of it within you. You can use visualizations or vision boards to help you with this process. 

    4. Action: We need to take persistent action to see our goals come into fruition. Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen, are the creators of The Chicken Soup for the Soul series and Marci’s co-authors. Jack and Mark were turned down by 143 publishers, but kept going because they knew this book had to be out there. Because of they persisted and didn’t give up, they made it to the 144th publisher, and that’s who took a chance to publish the book. The rest is history.

    Remember, just like any great superhero movie, your superpower can be used for good–or for evil. By using your hidden superpower for good, and focusing your thoughts, words, feelings, and actions on the miracles you want to manifest, you’ll be well on your way to seeing them (or something even better) manifest in your life .

    “Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny.” — Mahatma Gandhi

    Let us know in the comments below which of the four ways you’ll practice using your superpower for manifesting miracles today! 

  • Calling Your Energy Back Home

    Calling Your Energy Back Home

    Today’s Miracle Moment is about calling your energy back and anchoring your own miraculous power…

    I (Marci) am so delighted to introduce you to my new partner in miracles, Dr. Sue Morter, and today’s Miracle Moment is about what Dr. Sue is a master of—creating the energy circuits for living in the Miracle Zone.

    If you saw our last Miracle Moment, you know that Debra Poneman, who’s been my miracles partner for the last five years, is feeling inspired by some new projects of her own and she’s going to be working on those. So Sue, whom Debra and I have known for the last 20 years, is my new co-leader in Your Year of Miracles. Debra is completely excited about this, and everybody’s thrilled for Sue to be joining us.

    More than 15 years ago, Sue had an awakening experience that put her pretty much full-time in the Miracle Zone. In fact, Debra and I were both there when she had this experience and have witnessed her growth and opening in the years that have followed.

    Since then, Sue has devoted her life to decoding what it takes for us to live our essence, which allows us to live in the Miracle Zone. She’s been teaching and sharing this with her clients, her patients, and her students, and they are having remarkable results.

    So, Sue’s going to share with us regularly how we can build the energy circuits for the miraculous. And, we are so lucky to have her here.

    Here’s a tip from Dr. Sue for building the energy circuits for living in the Miracle Zone…

    I (Sue) am so happy to be sharing these tips with the Miracles community!

    What I recognize is that when people experience stress, it’s because their vibrational frequency is low, and they don’t have the neuro-circuitry in place to perceive a higher vibrational life that’s filled with ease and grace and support from the universe…and flow.

    What I’m interested in sharing with you is how to shift that. Not to just know about it, but to know what to do to raise your vibrational frequency to be able to live where miracles reside; beyond logic, where wonderful things occur that you never expected…and they occur on a regular basis.

    For us to experience life from that place, we have to learn how to build the circuitry, and one of the things that has to happen is that we move out of our head and into our core. When we do that, we start to gather our energy back that has been dispersed by one stressful encounter after another in life.

    Here’s how to just call your energy back to yourself and pull your energy back “home”:

    Put your attention on something else in the room…something away from your body, and notice how it feels. Then just call your energy back home. Just bring it back to your core. Play with this! As you do this, you’ll start to feel a greater sense of yourself in your core that you don’t feel when you live in your head.

    Instead of being dispersed and scattered, giving away your energy and your power, keep claiming your energy back into yourself. This is a foundational first step to cultivating your energy and letting it build inside of you.

    We’d love to hear from you about your experience of calling your energy back and anchoring into your own miraculous power. Please share your comments and experiences with us.

    Miracles are happening all the time. The key to experiencing them is to learn how to open up to them by building your energy circuits and raising your vibration so that you can perceive them flowing in your life.
