First...a big, warm welcome to all the wonderful new Grand Life subscribers this month.  I am super thrilled to have you join our growing community and I know you will love all the great resources and lifestyle tips.

And to everyone, it's been such a joyous year meeting and getting to know many of you, either through our personal or on-line connections.  You are all such special wonders of joy and what life is all about.

As a thank you for your support, I've got some special treats for you this month.  First is my article on my personal ritual on consciously creating your day to be the very best, day in and day out.  To me, life is as much about quiet reflection as it is about living loud...so enjoy the read and live your life on purpose!

Next, come listen to me on Sept. 10th on Heal Yourself Talk Radio, where I'll be a featured guest from 10:00 to 10:30 am PST.  And next month, be on the lookout for the publication of Overcomers, Inc. in which I am a featured author.  I'm very excited and looking forward to lots of new things on the horizon.

Speaking of new things, I've also got some exciting upcoming events.  Come check them out and join me for a transformational summer!  It's time to live and thrive, despite the economy, because really...our lives are what we make them and once we reclaim our power, we can move to the next level and soar higher than ever.  I'm a living example of this and can testify to one beautiful event after another...once I stepped out of my own way and decided to take my life into my own hands and not leaving it to chance.  This is something each of us can do, it's our divine birthright and I'd love to support you in living your grandest life.

I look forward to meeting many of you at my upcoming events.  Come say a personal 'Hello' and let's connect.  Until then, wishing you the most glorious month ahead.

As I sit here with my warm cup of tea and think of what to share with you this month, a thought comes to mind...of how I consciously create my day.  For many years now, this morning ritual and conscious creation has allowed much good to flow into my life.  So here's my special morning ritual.

To consciously create my day, I first center myself and allow all the thoughts my mind is examing of today's 'to do' list to gently ride off my mind like a soft breeze.  I then offer gratitude to the divine for another beautiful day and I ask to touch at least one life today and make a profound difference.  I then say outloud, 'I can't wait to see what excitement today holds' and start my day.  As I go about my day, I'll say some positive and inspirational affirmations for my current reality or anything special I may be working on.  The day never ceases to amaze me as signs and images either show up in my reality or my mind that often cause a chill and wander in at the most unexpected times.  And if followed, these signs have always led to great bliss.  So my thoughts...never ignore something that causes you to think and go deeper within because often that's where the magic is.

Now one thing that can also exponentially compound your results...always start and complete your day with gratitude.  As you may have noticed from my morning ritual above, my first thought is of extreme gratitude for another beautiful day.  And because I've been asked by many how to get into that pure vibrational state of gratitude where we really feel and align with it energetically, one technique that worked wonders for me when I was first starting out years ago was to sit quietly and write out all you are grateful for...then reflect on this list for a few minutes and feel the gratitude until you feel a tear slightly starting to trinkle down your cheek.  Yes, gratitude can definitely be this profound when you really think about it.  And the more grateful you are, the more good will keep flowing into your life...like a beautiful water fountain where the water keeps on circulating and never runs out...just like all the good in the universe, it never runs out!

Let me leave you with a challenge to practice this gratitude:
Even when we think we have it all together, sometimes a rare and special person comes into our lives to stretch up minds, heal our hearts, and uplift our growth to a deeper level.  Who is that person in your life today?  Take a minute and show your gratitude for that special someone today.

Here's to your consciously creative day...I'm deeply grateful for knowing you...thank you for the beautiful blessings that you are to me and society.
