Heart Wisdom

I don’t ever remember hearing so many people talk about heart wisdom or the power of our hearts until recently. This is probably an example of how we become acutely aware of something when it is important to us. It’s just like when you buy a new car and then see it everywhere when you’re driving.

Last weekend I went to go to a book signing and talk by Dr. Joe Vitale in Toronto. I was thrilled when I saw Joe’s posting on his blog because I was going to be in Toronto that same weekend and at a workshop in a nearby hotel. It was effortless to go and hear him speak.

On the same bill was a woman I had not heard of before, Dr. Lise Janelle, talking about her new book Conversation with the Heart. When I read the outline I felt like the night was designed perfectly for my interests; both of my passions, the heart and advanced Law of Attraction principles.

Lise and Joe were a wonderful combination and I am thoroughly enjoying reading Conversation with the Heart. It has both information about the wisdom of our hearts and the value in listening to the hearts along with practical exercises to get in touch with that wisdom. Joe was speaking about his new book, Expect Miracles and I enjoyed reading that this week.

It was amazing to see how closely Joe and Lise answered the questions from the audience. Although they come from different backgrounds, their answers were completely in line with each other. Not surprising when you think that we attract what we desire by being in the same vibration as the desire. If our hearts are prompting us, then the desire is in alignment with the heart itself.

I know I am much happier and more fulfilled since I began to listen to the wisdom in my own heart. I am grateful every day that I chose to act on my heart’s urging and retire from teaching. It was perfect timing and it’s giving me the opportunity to apply everything I’ve been teaching for the last several years so I stay in a high vibration and at peace during these turbulent economic times. My ego has kicked up a fuss about how I will manage financially, but my heart knows and expects to not only survive but thrive.

On the 30th of October at 9:00 pm eastern, Sonia Choquette, another of my favourite teachers, is doing a workshop with Scott Martineau of Conscious One. It’s called Can You Hear Your Quieter Voices? Here are a few lines from the promotion for the call.

“In order to lead a happy, fulfilled, abundant life one has to be able to hear the quieter voices. To be still and hear them requires some skill. To know what questions to ask requires some knowledge. To know how to create your heart’s desire and live it daily requires wisdom and an action plan.
Sonia Choquette is an expert at leading a life listening to her quieter voices. She’s an author of more than 13 books- her latest one was a New York Times Best Seller and she’s the creator of her own Heart’s Desire Coaching Program.
Don’t let the loud distractions of today’s life stop you from creating your heart’s desire in your life right now. Now is the time to get more grounded in your own voices and leave the distractions to others. Sonia will show you how on this special live call - learn more here: http://tinyurl.com/5etmzl.”

I’m certainly going to be on the call and I appreciate how I am attracting all this support to do what I feel is my life’s work.

I have a couple more spots remaining in my offer to read your hands for only $49.00. The regular price is $149.00, so this is a great offer for a limited number of people.
It was learning my life purpose that gave me the inspiration to leave the security of my job and do what my heart had been calling me to do. Some of the benefits of a Hand Analysis include:
1. discovering your true life purpose
2. understanding why you struggle with one or more areas of life by uncovering your life lesson
3. getting clear direction of what you should do to ease or stop your struggle
4. learning more about the gifts you have and how to use those both for yourself and to help others
5. discovering your niche market for your services

Watch for next week’s announcement of a f*ree teleclass series on Maintaining Peace in Turbulent Times. People have been asking me to share a variety of tips to tune out the fearful voices and stay calm and peaceful. I have ten tips already and am excited to share them with others and help people at this time.

May your heart be blessed.
Rosemary

Cultivating Peace in Times of Scarcity

Cultivating Peace in Times of Scarcity
I recently read that scarcity is one of three basic human triggers. Want to know the other two? Curiosity and controversy!
Reading that inspired me to write about how to handle your fear of you find its being generated by all the hype about credit scarcity for mortgages. How do you keep a sense of calm when you read that you will lose your home despite your ability to make your mortgage payments?
Here’s what I do. I discipline my mind to focus on my intended outcomes rather than my fears. I use an affirmation such as, “I easily and joyfully attract the ideal mortgage vendor for my successful renewal.”
I recently listened to a call by Bruce Cryer of the HeartMath organization. He described the effects of stress on our bodies and the easy to practice congruence routine.
Did you know that there are 1400 biochemical changes in your body as a result of stressful emotions? Yes, you read that correctly - 1400! When you have stressful emotions, your mind becomes clouded and you make more mistakes. Your body is clumsy and you can easily fall and injure yourself.
When you have positive emotions, you also have biochemical changes; however these are energizing and beneficial. HeartMath sells a product called the EmWave that tracks your heart rate. I watched Bruce’s heart rate pattern change as he imagined a stressful situation and then level out into calmness and a smooth rhythm just by his doing a simple process that took only a couple of minutes.
Here are the basic steps of the HeartMath technique as I remember them from the call.
1. Put your attention on the area around your heart.
2. Breathe into this area and feel the warmth. Breathe in and out as though through your heart.
3. Remember a person or a situation that brings you joy and feel appreciation. Spend some time continuing this process. In a short time your heart rate will be smooth and rhythmic and your body will experience positive biochemical changes.
As The Heart Activist, I am committed to living with an open heart and helping others to do the same. When I am contracted with fear, I don’t feel open-hearted. I want to close down and protect myself. I expect you are the same.
Does worrying about scarcity help stave it off? No way! It just allows those 1400 biochemical changes to go coursing through your body. When you place your trust in the power of your heart to create the life you desire, you take positive action.
Next time you watch the news or read the paper or listen to someone proclaiming doom and gloom remember to focus on your heart, breathe through it and feel grateful about someone or thing you love.
The Law of Attraction tells us we will get what we put our attention on and feel strong emotions about, whether positive or negative. Use this technique to keep your attention on what you desire and your vibration positive.
To your heart health,
Rosemary
