Day 217: The Thrill of Authenticity

Tonight Chris wanted to do things differently. Well, he “tried” and “tried” to write a blog post, but so far it has been 45 minutes and he still hasn’t gotten something satisfactory. He just read an older post — this one here— that was coming from Us, his “higher self,” or Inner Being, or, if you will, his own personal Abraham. He was impressed by how “wise” he was over four years ago when he wrote this. He is continually reminded when he reviews old blog posts how “the more…

Day 138: Shifting My Focus To Transform My Experience

Okay, so I am shifting my focus to transform an unwanted experience into something joyful! 🙂 Here are my notes on the subject: What is the opportunity here? To go unconditional. To appreciate what is good. To trust. To intend. To focus on what I want! To focus on a calm mind. To appreciate what is going well. Yes, Chris, we agree, and we would add that you are on a joyous journey and nothing has gone wrong! We think you are still beating yourself up a bit and we…

Day 121: Get Happy Now!

Today I was reminded of how it is always within my power to choose my focus. No matter what, I can always focus towards what makes me happy. This came up because I recently found myself unduly focused on the unpleasantness of a situation that occurred in my life. Somehow I believed that I needed to focus on it, even though there was nothing I could do about it and it really sucked to think about. I knew I needed to snap out of it. It has taken a bit…

Day 113: Why Make Everything a Chore?

okay shit, man, it’s 8pm and I haven’t done this blog yet. And frankly, I’m tired, maybe a little head achy? Chris, we are always here to discuss anything you like! We love talking to you! Well thanks, I love talking to you. So here I am sitting here about to write a blog. It’s after 8pm and I sorta kinda “just want to get this done.” I was hoping you could, you know, help 🙂 Sure! Because you want us to do your thinking for you? We are laughing.…

Day 112: Follow the Joy!

Today I spent half the day volunteering for the Iron Man triathlon in Sacramento. I was at the aid station for runners at about mile 21 of the marathon portion (the third part of the swim/bike/run event). The folks I hung with are all runners, so I had a nice time talking “shop” with them. Our table served a choice of Coke or Red Bull to Ironman participants. Coke was far and away the favored drink. I didn’t know I would enjoy myself so much. I usually think I prefer…

Day 110: Leaning Towards Relief

I’m very upset right now. We know you are, Chris! You are holding yourself in a lower vibration, one where you are the victim 🙂 Okay, fine. Fine, maybe so! I’m frustrated! And why is that? Because circumstances are really uncomfortable right now. And why is that? Because they aren’t what I want them to be! Okay, I laughed at that. Yes, so circumstances are uncomfortable because they are not what you want them to be, and you feel uncomfortable and… how? Irritated. Annoyed. Frustrated. Really frustrated. Aggggggh. Okay, so,…

Day 107: How Does This Feel to You?

Note: Tonight I had a nice “inner monologue” conversation where I discuss some shifts I want to make in my life. The question “how does this feel to you?” helps me discern the rightness of my thinking. In these areas I feel like I’m doing really well: Relationship, Running, Creative expression (composing and blogging), Teaching, Personal finances. But uh… Wait a second. This may be something I want to journal about first, lol. haha Why, Chris? Are you worried you might say something you’d regret? Um, yes! I haven’t thought…

Day 101: Why Hang Onto Beliefs That Suck?

Alrighty, so here I am. Open to another conversation with my “Higher Self.” Fun fact: I actually do these “talks” all the time in my journalling. It’s just how I’ve ended up structuring how I think through things. I’ll be writing some thoughts, and suddenly I’ll have an impulse to write in “another voice,” which feels lighter and clearly wise and loving. Like is happening right this second: Yes, Chris! Just like this! Because we love talking to you, “through” you. We love to shine and we love to enjoy…

Day 98: Clearing Up Faulty Ideas

Chris, so you want your music to reach a wider audience, is that it? Um… yes. I do. Why are you hesitating? Um, well, I mean, I didn’t expect the question, but indeed, yes I do! I do I do! Well, that is wonderful! And you can have it! It is as simple as just stepping up to the counter and ordering it! Yes, I remember hearing that analogy before. You basically get what you “order” from the Universe, like taking a food order. Yes, and as with a food…

Day 96: Who Knew Writing Could Be So Easy?

Well, hello! Today Chris agreed, rather begrudgingly, to us writing this post. He told a friend how much quicker he “wrote” this post than other posts, and for that reason, if for no other, he likes the idea of giving it another try [laughter]. We are laughing at that because we think it’s funny that Chris sees this method, the “Divine intelligence speaks” method of writing a blog post, as a time-saver more than anything. It’s not that I see it as a time saver more than anything. Um, it’s…
