What's New

It's a new year for the new you!! Mercury goes direct on the New Moon and Solar eclipse day, this Friday, January 15th! Yay! This is a fantastic energy day! Take advantage! Make your wishes count on this day and especially this entire month. This is the year that we truly shall receive what we emulate for our bliss. What you desire can come to fruition now more powerfully than every before. We are the creators of our lives. And we have some potent energy this month to work with. So be careful what you are feeling and being. Do not fall into negative thinking or the traps of "have to's" or "should's". Yes, stick with what you are doing now monetarily as you create anew. And begin now to place forth your energy into the direction of what you want to be or do by energetically being it NOW.

That means feel it as if it's happening now. Envision what you desire and know it is being planted and is already on its way to you. This is the year we start the path we have been destined to follow. This is the year we move into our divine destiny of service (i.e. what our gifts are, what we find most fun and get totally lost in doing). If you don't feel those feelings now, of what is most calling to you of what you desire doing and being then what will come to fruition now will be what you do not want or rather what vibrational space you are currently in. So don't let negative feelings and old past patterns stop you from at least starting to entertain your dreams!

And if you know nothing else of things you desire doing but that you simply want/desire peace and bliss in your life, then put *that* energy request out there. That is more than enough! It all starts as energy and moves forth from there. As you feel it you are sending that energy out there to the cosmo and then the cosmos are answering in assisting you to make it happen. Follow the divine guidance that comes your way from this calling. So if you aren't already on your path in or on your way to your destiny of service, begin now and know it's your year. It's your time. It's only Now. It's for all of us to decide. And only you can make it happen. Start pumping up your frequencies and aligning with your bliss. By 2012 what you have set root this year should be in full swing. It's up to us to live our lives to the fullest. Share only who *you* are within. Make a choice for the best life you can live. Check out the following clip. It's amazing: 2010 Predictions from...Beyond.

YOGA TESTIMONIAL
"You class was amazing! I enjoyed your class very much! I was impressed with your format. You had really nice transitions from pose to pose and most importantly from seated to standing positions. You also offered some new poses that I have not seen in other classes, which was great to have your own spin and variety. You were very safe and progressed participants through the varying levels of poses based on their flexibility. Great Job!" ~ Liz

New Attitute for the New Year
Attitude of Gratitude

Count your blessings. This new year is all about you. Yes, really. It's about putting out there what your true essence is and what your true divine destiny of service or passion is. From the big stuff to the small stuff it's about aligning with a higher vibration. The highest vibrations are Gratitude, Appreciation and Love.

I invite you to start this new year out right and to really count your blessings. Notice the blessings already in your life now. Really take a moment and close your eyes and come into this awareness. Feel the love and gratitude for the beautiful family you have, the shelter over your head, money in your pocket, food in your belly, job you may still have, or the excellent health you and your family may be experiencing and even smaller things that are so big like the smile of your baby when she looks at you. Whatever it is that is in your life, truly see it as the blessing that it is. Be grateful for even the not-so-great stuff. Because they are blessings to move you into a new more desired vibration. Gratitude and appreciation are the highest vibration along with love. Coming into full awareness of what's already in your life, allows more of the SAME to flow your way!

Many Masters and Guru's state that their only intention when they wake up in the morning is "Thank you". That is an intense feeling when you are present with it. It is so intense Love comes into your awareness with it. Because that is all there is. We only have what is in our present moment. And it is only in the present moment that we can allow the highest good to flow through us. We can feel good now. Not in 10 days or after you've gone through this process or that process, but now. Right now, in this very moment. It's all about your free will and belief that you can be in a higher vibrational good state of being. It's one step, one leap and you are there.

Be grateful for ALL things in your life. Be grateful for the good *and* the “bad”. Be grateful and accept that all things are brought to you for your life experience, even the not-so-great stuff. (I know, I know. How many times can I say "Be grateful"! But the point is to be in the grateful or appreciative frequency.) Tell the Universe, THANK YOU for this challenge, this person, or this horrible experience. Then truly feel that gratefulness. As you ask it to show you what lessons it has for you, inspiration comes because you have come to a state of gratitude and acceptance for what IS right now. You realize that all experiences are for your highest and best good. You realize you are timeless. This too shall pass. You are going to get through these experiences without burying them. You are so grateful and happy to have this experience show you what you need to learn about yourself so that you can shine a light on it, integrate the learning’s and transmute it into the light being you are! Then suddenly a shift occurs and more wonderful things occur. You come to a state of appreciation, forgiveness, and healing. The shift that occurs within is indescribable. You may only notice little blips on the radar screen at first and then suddenly a ginormous change occurs in that pattern and it stops. You’ve integrated. You’ve moved forward. You’ve evolved. And you can continue to work on the next thing that may come up with living in gratitude and faith. All truly is well.

Be in a grateful state of mind now. Be grateful for what you have now. Be grateful for what you will have, as if it’s already hear. Expect it and then release it. Remember, if you are not feeling grateful or uplifted you might be feeling resistance. And as they say, what we resist persists or what you fear you draw near. So do not focus on the negative things in your life, only the positive things. Be grateful for the negative experiences so your vibration in in that uplifted state of being. As you are in the positive state of mind you continue to bring positive experiences into your life. Whatever we resonate at is exactly what we receive. So raise your vibrations naturally and easily just by feeling grateful. Feel grateful for yourself, for your family, home, for your neighbors and co-workers and *their* good fortune too. As we are grateful to another’s good fortune we assist in their continuing their good fortune. This is giving without expecting anything in return. And as we do that, we automatically are in a new vibration that feeds the positive energy and we receive that much faster and easier. So energize yourself and find those truly wonderful things to feel grateful for. As you do, you move to that place and transform. And you can manifest the life of your dreams.

It does take dedication, a positive outlook, forgiveness of self and others. One thing that helped me and I strongly suggest you doing is having a Gratitude Journal. Write down ALL the good in your life. And I mean ALL the good. If you need to first get out all the bad, write it down, then BURN that journal/paper. (This is very good for releasing all the bad once and for all. You're telling God you're not going to accept that ickiness in your life anymore.) Then EVERY DAY write down at least three things you are grateful for. (At least!) I know when I got started, I couldn't stop at three. Do this for 21 days or more! After the 21 days, if you ever get in a funk do this exercise again. It works to adjust your brain waves to expecting more positive experiences to be grateful for and as you expect it, you align with that frequency and receive those positive experiences. Gratitude is one of the highest vibrations. Gratitude brings peace.

I do my best to check in and ask, “What can I be grateful for in this moment? What is so great and wonderful about right now?” It’s not just an appreciation for the people, places, things and experiences in your life, those are external. It goes deeper than that. It’s an appreciation for the aliveness that you are. I take deep breaths of awareness and feel the inner peace, my inner beingness pulsating inside of me and all around me. It feels as if it’s the energy of the Divine itself. The ultimate connection as we are the Divine.

In this uplifted state of being you will begin to notice a movement within. It can start off very slow and gradually increase in intensity. Do what your spirit moves you to do. It's not something you attain. It just is. It's always there. You just simply open up to it. You open up to yourself. Listen to the whispers within. When you don't listen they become screams anyway! :) It's the quiet place inside of you that is always there. Just allow it to flow rather than stifling it. It doesn't have to be a major shift in one fell swoop but one natural move, in the direction of your inner guidance, after another. And from there always enjoy the ride.

Happy NEW YEAR to you all! Here's to a fantastic new year this 2010. You all deserve it!

Enjoy, live, laugh and love always!

Peace and Bliss be with you ,

Dear Maggie

QUESTION

Dear Maggie,

"Please add me to the bliss list. I need help in healing my pain pill and cigarett addictions. I have since healed myself physically but cannot drop the pills, can't afford rehab and or anything else. Please tell god to help me. I have asked my angels and guides, but maybe its not time yet to quit , i dont know. Thats why i am asking you for help. I want to be pure for ascention. I have been asking my guides to take me to warm location to live, Atlantis attracts me (bahamas or souronding areas). When will I get out of the cold state I'm in? thank you i love you."

~ Laura

Hi Laura,

I do want to share a story Wayne Dyer shared about his own addiction to Alcohol. He tells of a story from his last movie (for the life of me I can't remember the name, and they recently changed the name too. I think it's now called: The Shift. But if you search Wayne Dyer you'll find it. Great movie!). It's not on the actual movie itself but a part of what is on the DVD. He tells of how he was so addicted he needed two beers to start every time he sat down for dinner. He went to dinner with his wife and kids (at the time five kids and one in her belly on the way). His wife was probably 8 months pregnant. At the dinner table they sat down and found out from the waiter that they couldn't serve alcohol as their liquor license had been suspended for a week. This was outrageous to Wayne at that time. He so desperately needed those beers he made all the kids and wife get up and go to a new restaurant. Piling five kids (and a few in baby car seats) for this was a big hassle but Wayne didn't care. So they went. He tells of waking up in the middle of the night totally ashamed of himself for making his family suffer for his addiction. He then felt a divine presence and suddenly right there states he will no longer take one drink again in his life. That morning his wife put out the beer he was used to. He said, no I told you I'm not drinking anymore. His wife knowing his prior pattern didn't believe him. She again set out beer at dinner and he reminded her of his intention. He truly had no more desire or want of alcohol anymore. He never ever touched alcohol again and it's been I believe almost or over 20 years.

I do not tell the story as well as he does but get the video and you will feel the power of it. He states that it only takes one moment, ONE moment to quit. It does not have to be a long process unless you truly believe it has to be a long process. If you believe it to your core, then it will be long and drawn out. But if you believe the truth that it can be one moment and poof you are no longer suffering from the addiction then you will not. You must believe. All healing is this way. If you believe it, it will be so. You can do your best to start conditioning your mind to true healing now. I know I have heard of herbs that help with withdrawal symptoms from Oprah.com. Do a search and see if you can find that article. If I find it I will send along too!

Now, on to the other part of your question. It feels as if your addictions are tied to your location right now. Meaning as you begin to heal your beliefs in your addiction you will begin to transition to a new more desired location. Right now the addiction is holding you back. Because it is limiting your true consciousness for higher awareness and ascension. You will evolve as you believe until you start to see proof for the pudding. It seems that although you seek proof, it is the leap of faith that is required. You must have faith that all is going as planned. You must have faith that you will feel okay even when not taking pills. You must have faith that your life is as lively as you wish it to be. It is a turning point for you to get out of your addiction and start to shift your awareness to higher ways of being.

It is strongly helpful and highly suggested by your guides that you join a meditation group and a like-minded group of higher awareness. Do note that you will outgrow this group but stay as long as it takes to shift your consciousness to a better way of feeling and being.

Remember that at your very core is peace. Nothing and no one can take that away from you. It is always the part of you that remains untouched. You are always 100% perfect, whole and complete now. And you will feel that more and more as you believe it to be so.

I do see you in a warm place and leaving behind a very cold life. The life you look back on will seem like somebody else's as you are transitioning into a new being, the being you have always been. And that being is divine. Within 3-6 months a major transition will be occurring for you and it could be within this timeframe that the move occurs. It is up to you and your beliefs and the inspired action *you* take with your *free will*.

Blessings,
Maggie

Favorite Spiritual Movie of the Month:

The Ramen Girl
starring Brittany Murphy
Brittany left a true gem behind when she departed from this world. I had never heard of this little gem till it showed up in my netflix as a recommended movie. It's so perfect to following your bliss even if at first you don't know what that is. The little whispers allow you to naturally flow in that direction. You simply follow and take action when it's needed. Sometimes you have to work hard and then the flow just happens along the way. The mystical parts of this movie always made me smile. The energy and spirit you put into any food you make truly is placed into the food and eaten by those who taste the food you've made. They do take your energy from energy you placed into the food. So taking care not to put anger and negativity into food is prudent. Cook with care, love and spirit. Enjoy!
