Thought of the Week
The enlightenment you are seeking is already embracing you,suffusing you. It is shining as your Self.
When all ideas and concepts about it fall away, what remains is pure, unobscured awareness…enlightenment itself.
You are that.

F.Y.I. – Reshaping
2012 is a year for reshaping. We are not just talking about on a physical level although of course when you do that your mental and emotional ideas and feelings are modified. Inevitably your spiritual body is reshaped as you progress. Towards the end of 2011 we saw (and continue to see) businesses and countries reshaped, reprogrammed. Globally this has had and will continue to have ramifications. Some will go into fear about these happenings however it is important to remind yourself that the only constant in life is change and so the key is to be open to what comes.
Everything that is ‘not working’ must go. Look around. If there is something not working in your life then why are you hanging on to it? Change your life and see the ripple move out and effect greater change.
Think about how you can be of service to yourself, your immediate environment, the world and of course the Universe.

Health tip – Crepe Myrtle Flower Essence
This flower essence is for joyful, ONEness, creativity and moving forward in your life. 
(The Crepe Myrtle speaks) “I move forward, clearing a path before me whereever I go. I gather strength and courage as I go. As a rolling snowball gathers snow, I gather what I need. I now trust that knowledge and insight are available to me, and I no longer look back allowing fear and doubt to get in my way.”
Properties:
* Balancing masculine/feminine within
* Strength, courage and joyful ONEness
* Creativity and urge to move forward in life
* This essence provides a clearing and strengthening of the spine and nervous system. It induces clarity of mind and increased energy. Crepe Myrtle has a balancing and strengthening influence on the adrenal glands and gonads, as well as on the solar plexus and crown chakras.
This essence is made for with Smoky Quartz Crystal.

Affirmation – say every day.
When you come to a red light or are stuck in traffic “see it as a bell of mindfullness, reminding us to return to the present moment.” Say:
“Breathing in, I calm my body. Breathing out, I smile.”
This situation has now “become a friend, helping us to remember that it is only in the present moment that we can live our lives”
…….’Peace Is Every Step’, Thich Nhat Hanh

“We can choose to be driven by fear or to bring universal limitless love into our lives by connecting to the Soft Diamond Light within every one of us!”
