Surviving vs. Thriving
Many times, in order to survive we have to start a change process. We sometimes need to get rid of old beliefs, habits, and automatic programming that is no longer serving us today. When we become fully aware of what is empowering us or disempowering us, we can make a choice to change and thrive rather than survive.
Today, I heard a great story that illustrates this choice in nature.The story goes like this: "The eagle has the longest life-span of its species. It can live up to
70 years. But to reach this age, the eagle must make a hard decision.
In its' 40's, its' long and flexible talons can no longer grab prey
which serves as food. Its' long and sharp beak becomes bent. Its'
old-aged and heavy wings, due to their thick feathers, become stuck to
its' chest and make it difficult to fly. Then, the eagle is left with
only two options: die or go through a painful process of change which
lasts 150 days. The process requires that the eagle fly to a mountain
top and sit on its' nest. There the eagle knocks its' beak against a
rock until it plucks it out. After plucking it out, the eagle will wait
for a new beak to grow back and then it will pluck out its' talons.
When its' new talons grow back, the eagle starts plucking its' old-aged
feathers. And after five months, the eagle takes its' famous flight of
rebirth and lives for 30 more years!"
Like the eagle, we are all being asked if we are willing to change. Change is happening all around us and within us. Especially now, we have a golden opportunity to release the old and allow the new to emerge. At times it may require that we retreat and reflect about who we are, what we want, and why we are here. Or, it may require us to join in community, opening ourselves and our hearts with strangers to discover new sight, new thoughts, and new understanding. One thing is for sure.... we are living in a phenomenal cycle of time that is inviting us to shift our awareness of ourselves and each other. We are being offered a choice to survive or thrive. To learn more about the shift that we are experiencing, please see my personal blog at: www.jennifermulholland.blogspot.com. I will be writing more about this shift in the coming weeks and months.
I look forward to meeting more of you in person at the next Conscious Conversations on May 4th to share our experiences of Synchronicity. For now, I am leaving the falling snow in Park City and heading to the warm and sunny beaches of Mexico for some reflection and renewal.
Wishing you a fabulous week.
BELIEVE in the possible. CREATE the possible. LIVE the possible.

SOULFUL SEEDS

"I am more and more convinced that our happiness or our unhappiness depends far more on the way we meet the events of our life than on the nature of those events themselves." - Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (1767-1835 - German Statesman)

COACHING TIP
|
WHAT ARE MY GREATEST NEEDS?
1. Write down your top 10 needs (ex: need for security, need for power, need for achievement, need for intimacy)
2. Place an * next to your top 3 needs.
3. Reflect and discover how your top 3 needs are being met and whether those ways are nourishing you.
4. Ask yourself, "how can I meet this need more easily and positively?"
5. Write down your reflections in your journal.
Bringing awareness to what you need and how you are fulfilling that need can help you shift from surviving mode to thriving.

Featured Awakener Lanaiya King, Telepath, Clairvoyant, and Sound Healer
 With the new energies that are coming into the planet I often find myself needing an "attunement". I define an "attunement" as a reconnection to my source and the Divine on an intentional and energetic level. During an attunement, my channels to receive inspiration are opened and I am grounded in my body more fully so that I can bring the inspiration to life. I am very grateful to have Lanaiya King to turn to in these times when I need this type of attunement. Lanaiya assists people in harmonizing and transcending physical illness and pain,
emotional discord and negative cellular memory, unresolved past life issues
that are presenting themselves today, and stagnant patterns in life. These
unique sessions result in rapid breakthrough, remarkable upliftment and a new positive life shift, both physically and spiritually. Lanaiya is also
Blueprint DNA Code Master and Sound Healer who is able to read your perfect
design, release blockages (on a physical, mental emotional or soul- experience
level) and assist in the expression of your authentic self.
Lanaiya
also provides balancing signals with sound. It is known, even in traditional
medicine, that all of the organs, tissues, and even the DNA, have their own sound signatures that becomes muddied
when illness or stress occurs. As a Sound Healer (called toning), Lanaiya is
able to realign your body through powerful tones emanating through her voice.
The tones are strong light wave signatures, containing precise and specific
vibration, color and light geometries, facilitating clearing, harmony and
balance. Her work is amazing!
She
currently holds many certificates in
varied forms of "energy medicine" including Reiki Mastership, Jin
Shin Jytsu, Hypnotherapy, Theta Healing, and is an ordained minister with The
Order Of Melchizedek. For more information or to book a session, contact Lanyaia:

Conscious Conversations
Topic: Synchronicity  Synchronicity is the phenomenon of meaningful
coincidence. It is a connection between something going on outside us and
something happening inside us. A synchronicity occurs when an event, a meeting, a conversation or a thought merges with our life's purposes or helps unfold our destiny. As Dave Richo states in his book, Unexpected Miracles, "All coincidences are connected by
meaning, but synchronicity happens when the
meaningfulness is relevant to our personal evolution." Synchronicity is a word made from two Greek terms
meaning "joined with" and "time."
Synchronicity is a bond or connection that happens in a
timely way. A correspondence between two things is
suddenly made clear. The unifying connection was always
present but an immediate and meaningful coincidence
makes it visible. On Monday, May 4th, please join me for meaningful and fun conversations on the topic of Synchronicity. Come share your own experience of Synchronicity and how a meaningful coincidence opened a door on the path of your evolution. As we share our stories with one another, we will be reminded of the gift of Synchronicity and we will leave inspired to notice them and act on them in our daily lives. Date: Monday, May 4th Time: 6pm-8pm Location: Rikka in Park City, Utah (Kimball Junction) www.rikkafloral.comVisit www.consciousconversations.blogspot.com to review the topics and post a comment or I will see you on Facebook.
