Global Impacts, Local Acts
Illumination May 2010
Dear Friend,
 
waterlilyAs friend and colleague Schelli Whitehouse recently wrote, "Shift Happens!"  Aah-the opportunities that life brings to stretch and grow us beyond limitation, comfort and status quo.  He or she who flourishes through the shift must indeed be open, flexible and courageous.
 
This month we explore the shifts that are occuring on a personal and planetary level; taking conscious care of ourselves,TWR Offerings and Mineral Musings! 
 
"The seed of freedom is planted in each of us, but we must discover it for ourselves."
- Ernest Holmes
Shift Happens
Coping or Contributing by Harriet Tubman Wright
Two recent events: the volcanic eruption in Iceland and the Gulf Coast Oil Catastrophe are evidence of increasing natural and human-made disasters.
 
- How were you or other people that you know affected?
- Were you alarmed, outraged or disheartened?
 
As we are confronted by increasingly dramatic climate shifts and disasters, our interdependence and inter-connectedness becomes more obvious.  As we experience the breakdown of political and economic systems, financial and religious institutions, we can no longer ignore or deny that what occurs in my yard, directly or indirectly triggers impacts in your yard.
 
- Are you experiencing disintegration or dissolution in your life? (loss of relationship, job, health, home?)
- Are you trying to hold on, or are you learning to let go?
 
There is a sense of urgency that leads to the questions:
 
- So what can I do?
- How can I cope or contribute more effectively?
 
I'm personally encouraged by three vibrant movements:
--- the growing green economy, as well as more charter schools, community gardens, farmer's markets, co-housing, all grassroots initiatives that are re-inventing conscious community.
--- the growing spiritual awareness focused on conscious evolution and co-creating an equitable, sustainable, peaceful world that works for all.
--- the growing impact of social networks like FACEBook, Twitter, youtube, plus Maestro Conference that are bringing together people of diverse cultures, religions and even languages, into dialogue and collective action.

3. Shift your job responsibilities or business pursuits to engage others in co-creating a shared vision for positive change
4. Join a teleseminar or telesummit to explore conscious evolution in more depth with like-hearted souls around the world.

waterlily Conscious Care - Nurturing Body, Mind & Spirit
 
Embrace a Positive Attitude
- Positive emotions may affect overall health, perhaps through direct mechanisms such as immune system function, or indirectly, for example, by strengthening social support networks.

Stimulate Your Mind - Keep learning about whatever interests you.  Scientists agree that challenging mental tasks can help prevent the brain from aging.  It might be a new language to learn, study courses, books to read, puzzles to solve, or any activity that imparts new knowledge and challenges you.

Limit Stress - Socialize - Humor, meditation, exercise and optimism are good ways to naturally reduce stress and relieve tension.  As well, social contacts and friends can encourage us to take better care of ourselves and get through tough times.

Respect Your Genes - You can compensate for bad genes by healthy living - or ruin perfectly good genes with poor habits.  Find fun ways to stay in shape, such as dancing, gardening, swimming, walking or jogging.  Include strength training.

Make Healthy Diet Choices - Pay special attention to eating efficiently.  Choose foods that maximize nutritional value and minimize calories.  It is essential to have access to a good, trustworthy health care provider.

Mineral Musings
waterlilyEven though the current Mercury in Retrograde cycle has slowed my pace, I'm experiencing powerful stirrings, feeling poised and prepared for greater abundance spiritually and financially.  As I continue engaging in conscious evolution and reordering my priorities accordingly, while sharing my gifts and serving my ideal clients, I know that my inner and outer territory is expanding and I'm at the threshold - as are we all. 
These are the best and worst of times, depending solely on your perspective. Why not choose, hold and practice love, peace, forgiveness, justice, respect, creativity, joy.......
