Rise Up and Be Heard!

Photo by Nancy November Sloane
This past weekend, people in America—and throughout the world—spoke out in unprecedented numbers. What was important is that people did not hide their views and told their government what is important to them. We are a country founded on freedom and free speech. It does not matter if you support the views of the marchers. The importance is that in this country we can speak our truth and be heard.

There is strength in our country from the millions of people who spoke out this weekend. Allow their power to support you in expressing your truth to a person in your life. Tell them what you have been withholding that is in your heart. It does you no good to be silent. Nor does it serve them. If you do not tell them what is vital for your emotional and mental well-being, you will only be injuring yourself.

Our country was born on freedom of speech. Speak yours!

Rise up and be heard,
Marnie

Heal Yourself, Heal Others, Improve Your Life

There are messages all around you, and you can receive higher guidance if you only open your eyes and observe. I am lucky that most of the time my body does not need to give me pain to let me know I need to adjust my thinking. Although lately that has not been the case. The physical aliments that have been popping up are reflecting anger I could be holding in my bodies; physical, mental, and emotional. I have been sitting with this information but have not been able to decipher what to do to release the discomfort.

Today it came to me; the simple process of 'Ho'oponopono' is just what I need. Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len, a therapist in Hawaii was called upon to help in a ward of the dangerously criminally insane. Other doctors were afraid to work in this unstable environment and would leave before they could help the inmates. Dr. Len decided to use an unconventional process to see what would occur. He did not see any of the patients. He merely opened their files and spoke these words:
  1. I'm sorry.
  2. I love you.
Dr. Len said, "If you want to improve your life, you have to heal your life. If you want to cure anyone, even a mentally ill criminal you do it by healing you...Suffice it to say that whenever you want to improve anything in your life, there's only one place to look:  inside you. When you look, do it with love. If you have a challenge [with a person, situation, etc.], it's not with that person [etc.] It's that memory that's coming up that you are reacting to.  That's what you have a challenge with.  It is not with the other person."

It's the attraction factor—like attracts like—Dr. Len’s God-self was so strong that it attracted the God-self in others. Try it my friends and see how it works for you. It is simple, it is short, it won’t hurt anyone, and it just might help.

Blessings,
Marnie
