Life Lessons from Your Soul - Asking For Help

Yesterday while walking on the beach, I called a friend of mine to see if she could come out and walk with me. She had been sick with a nasty stomach flu and was staying inside. As we talked for a few moments, I thought to myself; "Offer to go to the store for her . . .". It is my nature to help people who need it. Sometimes I do this to a fault, neglecting my own needs for another. I chose to hold myself back from asking her if she needed me. I wished her well and we hung up the phone.

A few minutes later, she called me back and she asked for help. I immediately gave it to her saying I'd be happy to go to the store for her and help her in her time of need. We talked about how hard it was for her to ask for my help and I shared how hard it was for me to not automatically give it.

How is it that we have come to live in a world where asking for help is so difficult that we over analyze the situation to the point where giving and receicing have become arduous tasks? There are so many schools of thought that tell us not to be too much of something we naturally are because we might over give or ask for more than we 'deserve'. Isn't it our birthright to ask for what we need and just trust that someone in our lives will be available to provide it for us?

I was ashamed that I did not just step up to the plate and offer help. She was ashamed that she did not just step up to her plate and ask for help. We were in a lock down of helplessness in an incredibly obvious situation where providing help was so unbelievably simple in this amazingly complex city where help is rarely around the corner.

My friend and I learned a valuable life lesson yesterday. Just be yourself. If you feel compelled to offer help and you have the time to do it. Just do it. If you need help, simply ask for it and KNOW you 'deserve' it just by virtue of the fact that you are a human being in need.

Thank you my friend for showing me what I already knew. Help is always around the corner.

Life Lessons from Your Soul - Feeling Love

Recently, someone dear to me asked me a question that sent me on a journey of self exploration. It was an unexpected quest I embarked upon but a fulfilling one. The question was this:

"When do you feel love?"

My immediate answer was "I am love. How would I not feel it?"

At that moment, I looked out at the sea and saw Dolphins swimming by. I ran to the glass doorway and said "I'm feeling love right now!! The Dolphins connect me to love."

I continued asking myself that question and found that I feel love more often than I would have thought I did and under more circumstances than I thought I would. I also found that simply through entering the awareness of that question, I essentially uped my "love quotient" by noticing when I felt love.

When do you feel love? What connects you to the feeling of love and what does not? Can you still feel love in the darkness of a difficult situation? Can you attemt to?

Enter into the richness of this quest. You too may be surprised.

May the blessings of Peace, Love and Joy fill your heart and your homes as your personality chooses to enter more deeply into Love in the year to come.

I thank all of you who have supported my walk of Love this last year and the many who will come in the next one. Together we can create a powerful change in Earth School that begins within each one of us.

Find the Joy, Peace and Love within you by taking the time to connect with the beautiful offerings that Earth School provides us. Take time to call a loved one just to say "I love you." Take a hot bath or watch a sunset. Spend time with your child or significant other that focuses on what they desire to do and really be present for them. They will never forget it.

There are many things you can do this Holiday Season to gain access to our inherent ability to love and be loved. "Let it out, let it in" as the Beatles sing. Give, receive and allow. Find your own song and sing it with fervor! Be Love.

Happy Holidays to You and Yours!
With Deep Love,

Life Lessons From Your Soul - Holiday Family Tips

Holiday's traditionally bring out the child within as we visit parents, siblings and extended family members to celebrate the honored tradition of our families through holiday togetherness. This is the time of the year when colds are caught, aches and pains are more painful and general emotional swings are had by many.

Our families of origin bring out the best and the worst in us. They are the original teachers who awaken the patterns we travel into this life with. Parents and siblings are the wayshowers of our dark sides. The darkness is simply there to teach about the lightness of who we really are. As we struggle with the classic battle within us between the negative and positive emotions, we energetically choose family that will help us develop our personalities to evolve into the treasures of our souls.

So, here are some things to think about as you spend time with family:

Families will trigger you into the negative aspects of your personality until you choose the power of your soul to bring light to the situation. If you are playing to an old drama with your mom, for instance, in which she brings up your irritability, please know that you do not have to remain a slave to that old pattern. Your greatest triumph in that pattern will come when you have accepted that your mom is like that and you cannot change how she relates to you. You can, however change how you relate to the old drama and how you relate to your mother.

You can change this pattern through accessing acceptance by inviting it into the drama. When acceptance of yourself is present, it becomes easier to accept your mother. One way to accept her is to appreciate her. Take your irritation and turn it into appreciation. Make a list of what she is great at. Be grateful you have a mother who wants you there with her during the holidays. Be grateful that she has a home for you to come to. Find anything and everything to be grateful for when it comes to your mom. Notice her wonderful qualities and how you express them in your daily life. Stick with this no matter how hard it may be for you.

The soul expresses itself in qualities. Your mother passed her qualities to you - or more accurately - you already had these qualities and attracted your mother to bring them out in you. Focus on what ever those qualities may be - enthusiasm, acceptance, diplomacy, kindness, loving, caring, thoughtfulness, appreciation. Those are all qualities of the soul that the personality has the free will to access and expand upon any time you desire to.

If you are aware enough that you have attracted this article into your sphere, know that you are the one who has what you need to shift the dynamics between you and your family members. Each one of them has their perceptions, their point of view on the dramas that occur. Do not forget that they operate from thier point of view just as you do. They are likely not self aware and cannot see the drama from the perspecitve of the observer - the soul as you can. You have this level of awareness. See the drama for the illusion that it is and make a different choice - choose love.

Life Lessons from You Soul - Hollywood "Ethics"

The word 'ethics' and Hollywood don't fit well in the same sentence. I walked into my first Hollywood lesson with the part I got in the Heinz commercial. You know, the one with 'no pay'. I asked the casting director/producer what the commercial was for. (Intuitively, I smelled a rat and wanted to poke around a bit to see what he was up to.) He told me it was for a commercial contest. So I Googled 'Heinz commercial competition'. It turns out the winner gets $57,000.00.

I come from the world of Metaphysics. It's a world where sharing the wealth is not only ethical, moral, reasonable and integrous, it is our birthright. I felt empowered when I called up the talent agency to find out what the industry standard was in a case such as this. The agency told me that when money is made off of my image after a spec commercial gets picked up, it is in fact the standard for the production to pay the actor in arrears for the work. He said to go back to the producer and ask him to sign a contract that would pay me a daily rate if he does, in fact win. He also said that if he refused, to NOT taked the job because he is 'not a decent human being'.

I went to the producer to ask and left a detailed voicemail. He did not return my phone call. Two days later, only a day and a half prior to the shoot, I e-mailed him asking for a contract. He e-mailed the day before saying "We won't be needing you for this project . . ." I knew it!!! He was one of those Hollywood types that gives all of them a bad name. He makes money off of the work of others while they starve, reel in hand and 'credit' for a commercial when commercials don't have credits.

Was I upset by all this? NO WAY!! Was I empowered by this? ABSOLUTELY!! When someone you know chooses to act with no integrity and you say yes to it by compromising yourself, you will always end up feeling bad about what you did. People like this will continue to operate in the world as long as others agree to their lack of integrity. I felt so empowered that I said no. I felt so strong that I did not participate when my gut told me not to. I was not the least bit disappointed in his choices. They were his choices. He did not do it to intentionally hurt anyone. He only did it to serve himself. People like that create their own misery. And that kind of thing never goes unnoticed by the nonphysical world.

Stay tuned for the next installment when I tell you how, along with my Hollywood friends, we make our own commercial for Heinz. You never know where something will lead you . . .
