Sensing 'Intention' by Robert Morgen One of the 'mystical' aspects of the martial arts has always been the ability to feel another persons intention. Sensing intention gives a person the ability to be in instant control of a potentially violent encounter, and it's one of the ways we use the martial arts to test our energy work and meditation skills in Hoshin. A simple explanation of 'intention'. When a person intends to hit you, that intention carries with it a very subtle vibration. Since most people are unaware of this t ... Basic Reiki by Robert Morgen This is a very simplified primer on basic Reiki. It’s intended as a basic lesson to help someone get started channeling the energy and in no way should be considered a Reiki Course in itself. What is Reiki? Reiki is a Japanese phrase which means “Universal Energy”. Its history is enshrouded in myth, legend and parable, but the simple fact is, it works. Reiki is simply the process of channeling Universal Energy through oneself and into some one (or something) else. The vast range of uses fo ... What is 'Kundalini'? by Robert Morgen The Kundalini is a pool of energy that lies dormant at the base of the spine and which can be and often is, accessed, allowing the student/victim to use the energy for health, spirituality and creating their life as they were meant to live it. It's my belief that many people have had full or even partial awakenings of their kundalini energy and honestly don't recognize it. Many of these people go through life seemingly unaffected, some seek higher spiritual planes and others suffer from ep ... Kundalini and 'Going Where We're Supposed To Go' by Robert Morgen In the early 90's I had a spontaneous Kundalini Awakening after a near death experience, which I wrote about in a different article. Here's what happened next. After I got out of the hospital after my injury, and even during my stay there, I felt that I was extremely different. At the time I accounted it to just being glad to still be alive, and for over a decade I never thought anything more about it. Yet the fact was that I did feel extremely different and I felt driven to pursue meditat ... Kundalini and 'Enlightenment' by Robert Morgen We all hear of the concept of the Author's Biography: Robert Morgen currently holds a Blackbelt in Hoshin Roshi Ryu and founded High Mountain Hoshin in Denver, Co. He's also the founder and moderator of the Kundalini Awakening Discussion Group at http://www.care2.com/c2c/group/Kundalini http://www.highmountainhoshin.com ... Kundalini Lessons - Money by Robert Morgen I've been going through and interesting growth period lately that I thought I'd share, as some of the lessons were pretty profound (at least for me). I've written before about my awakening and the joys and tribulations since, and I've also mentioned that it's an ongoing process which, as far as I can tell, doesn't really end til you shuffle off this mortal coil. Then you get to come back and start over. :) The last couple of years or so have been a really interesting period, partly through ... Kundalini Symbology by Robert Morgen While study and pursuit of the Kundalini is considered part of the ‘New Age’ repertoire, it’s interesting to note that like most things New Age, it’s roots are very ancient and actually pervade almost every part of human culture. Everyday we see symbols of the Kundalini all around us, but because few people are aware of the Kundalini and it’s impact, almost no one realizes what they are seeing. While entire books could be written on this subject, I’m only going to give a few (very brief) exam ... The Power Of Your Natural Self by Dr Brenda Shoshanna “He was powerful not because he dominated the scene, but because he was being true.” Buddha The greatest gift we give one another is the gift of our natural selves. For some this is not difficult, but for most it takes practice to stop the games they play, take off their masks and return to their natural selves. Our natural self is filled with strength, life, energy and enthusiasm. It has no fixed role, but moves, ... Don't Settle by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee Settling is about not embracing what is best for you, and accepting what you really don't want. When you settle, you accept less than you deserve. Settling becomes a habit and a way of life, but it doesn't have to be. According to Maureen Dowd, Author's Biography: Coach Rachelle Disbennett-Lee, PhD, is a Certified Master Coach specializing in working with business owners and professionals in being more profitable and productive while staying sane and balanced. Coach Lee is the pub ... The Spectacular You by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee I recently received a letter addressed to Spectacular Rachelle Lee. At first I thought it was a joke. Who would write such a thing? I then thought maybe it was a mistake. Whatever it was, I knew it did not feel comfortable. It turned out to be an advertisement, for what I am not even sure. What I am sure of is that the way it was addressed caught my attention, and I realized how difficult it can be to own just how spectacular I am. We are all spectacular, but how often do we own it? Wo ... Don't Be Jealous - Be Inspired by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee When we see people do things we cannot do, or have things we don't have, it might be tempting to be a little jealous. But, jealousy doesn't lead to anything except resentment, and that isn't going to help you. Instead of being jealous of others, focus on being inspired. Let the success of others move you forward toward your own success. After all, people who are doing things you want to do or have things you want are examples of what is possible for you. When I see people doing things I w ... Everyone Needs a BAG (Big Audacious Goal) by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee A Big Audacious Goal (BAG) is a clear and compelling catalyst that serves as a focal point for effort. Unlike smaller goals, the BAG is something that is huge. It is challenging and in some ways seems impossible - but a BAG is also inspiring, compelling, and motivating. Everyone needs a BAG. BAGs challenge us to be more than we are right now, and to tap into all of our resources. BAGs bring out the best in you by bringing all your talents to the forefront. Goals are wonderful to have, bu ... Commit to Doing 80% by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee Instead of trying to be perfect, it is better to do your best, and often your best doesn't look like going all out all the time. This is especially true when you are making changes in your life. Instead of setting yourself up for disappointment and failure, allow yourself some room to breathe and not be perfect. Life is a process and it takes time, so commit to doing your best 80% of the time and implement the new change slowly, but consistently. Whenever you decide to make a change in your ... A Live It by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee Real change happens only when it becomes part of our everyday life. When a change becomes a habit, it isn't something new we are trying, but becomes part of what we do as our routine. I was reading a Wynona Judd interview and they asked her about her diet. She replied that she wasn't on a diet; she was on Author's Biography: Coach Rachelle Disbennett-Lee, PhD, is a Certified Master Coach specializing in working with business owners and professionals in being more profitable and prod ... Emergency Living by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee There are times, when I am driving in my car being passed by so many other cars speeding along, that I could swear there is an emergency somewhere and I wasn't invited. It seems everyone is in a hurry to get somewhere. The other day I was sitting at a red light, the light turned green and the car in front of me sped away. At the next traffic light the same car was sitting in front of me and, when the light turned green, off the car sped. This went on for three lights. I must say that I was rathe ... Enroll in Car College by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee One of the most overlooked opportunities for learning and personal growth is the time we spend in our cars. There really isn't much we can do safely in our car but drive. I know I see people doing all kinds of things such as curling their hair, putting their makeup on and talking on the telephone. All of those things are distracting. There is something we can do in our cars to make any commute worth the time. That is what I call Car College - otherwise known as listening to some form of audio. ... If You Are Not Ready, Don't Start by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee There are times when we feel we should take action, but feel stuck or unsure. Action does assist with moving forward, but the first question to ask is Author's Biography: Coach Rachelle Disbennett-Lee, PhD, is a Certified Master Coach specializing in working with business owners and professionals in being more profitable and productive while staying sane and balanced. Coach Lee is the publisher of the award winning e-zine, 365 Days of Coaching. Her first book, 365 Days of Coaching – ... People Are Who They Want To Be by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee Choice isn't always a matter of being able to choose what happens to us. Life happens, and often without any say from us. However, our circumstances do not determine who we become. Only we have the choice to determine that. Everyone is who he or she wants to be, regardless of what one might think. We all have choices and each choice leads to the creation of who we are. There is a great quote that states, Author's Biography: Coach Rachelle Disbennett-Lee, PhD, is a Certified Master ... The Law of Large Numbers by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee It is often said that sales is a numbers game. The more people we contact, the more chances we have to make a sale. That seems pretty obvious. The more people we contact the better chance we have of making a sale. This doesn't just work in sales. It works in life. If we want to get a date or find a job the more people we talk to, the greater chance we have of being successful. Sitting at home wishing and hoping that someone stops by doesn't usually get us what we want. We have to be willing t ... There Are Always More Nos Than Yeses by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee Although it may not seem true, if we think about it, we will come to realize that there are always more nos than yeses. We will be turned down more often than not. The good news is that the more nos we get the more the yeses will increase. It is a numbers game. The more often we ask the more our chances of success increase. If, just for fun, we took a jar and put a penny in it for every no we received and took out a penny for every yes, we would never empty the jar. The nos will far exceed th ... You Can't Have An Intelligent Conversation With Everyone by Rachelle Disbennett-Lee Intelligent conversation is one of life's pleasures. I love nothing better than to engage in conversation with someone who has ideas to share, different perspectives, and is interesting. An intelligent conversation is food for the brain. All too sadly, not everyone can carry on an intelligent conversation. This has less to do with their intelligence quotient (IQ) than with their emotional quotient (EQ). Only a self-aware, self-confident person with excellent social skills has the ability to enga ... The Best Medicine For Stress (Daily Dose Of Gratitude) by Dr Brenda Shoshanna There is one sure fire medicine that cures all difficulty and opens the way for your greatest good.

The medicine is a good dose of gratitude, taken daily, at least three times ... 8 Baby Steps to Getting to Know Yourself by Kimberly Fulcher Who are you? What do you stand for? What do you believe in? What engages your passion? What brings tears of gratitude and joy to your eyes? Do you know, or have you lost yourself? In my work as a professional coach, I’ve helped many people rediscover themselves. The first step on the road to rediscovery involves spending time with you, which is why I liken the process to dating yourself. When you began dating your last partner or the person you share your life with, didn’t you mo ... The Gift of You by Rita Ballard Our world is inhabited by billions of people, most of who are totally unaware of one another. People spend a lot of time complaining about ‘the way things are’, apparently oblivious to their own powers to change it. Each one of us has inside a storehouse of potentials, unique thoughts and ideas, and feelings of love, compassion, and tenderness. Think of how different the world would be if everyone, every day, gave away something of themselves to a stranger. Think of all the things you li ... Normal - Abnormal by Ligia Santos What is being “normal”? Most of the people I know my age, from my previous companies and with whom I remained in contact, have more and more nothing to do with who I am. Some are younger, some are older than me, so it’s not a question of “age”. I mean, it’s great to see them when we have the chance, have a nice dinner, go out for a couple of drinks and chit-chat…But on the “daily basis”, I really have less and less to do with them. My outdoor activities resume to photography, geocaching ... | ||||||
