I love meeting people and listening to interesting stories. I also enjoy telling stories because I often find myself in  “out-of-the-ordinary” situations; therefore, if I can share my experience with another, who knows how it will come full circle in Divine time. 

 I do my best to be obedient to God’s voice and follow His guidance. And when I find myself needing to make one of two choices, I tune into my intuition and pray my way through the action I’ve chosen.  

I mean, when God gives instructions, I believe it’s best to move your feet.

Storytime!

In my opinion …

One of the most interesting places to meet people and have great conversations is in the sauna or cold plunge pool at the gym. You never know who you’re going to meet or what we’ll talk about. Regardless, it’s a joy to meet like-minded individuals working to improve ourselves from the inside out. 

A few weeks ago, a handful of us were sitting in the sauna, sweating and talking about the cold pool that had just been introduced to the gym.

To be honest, none of us were that excited about sitting in the 55 degree water for an extended period of time, but we’ve discovered that the aftereffects are life changing. 

Moreover ….

We were talking about life experiences and someone asked me if I’d ever cold plunged into a lake. I said, “Yes. But not intentionally.” Then I proceeded to share an adventure that happened years ago while walking around a lake with my dogs. It was the dead of winter and a stranger’s dog fallen through the ice, so I jumped in and brought him back to shore.

As my story telling in the sauna came to an end,  I headed out the door and playfully said, 

“No dog dies under my watch.” 

We all chuckled and parted ways. 

Weeks later….

I saw the couple in the sauna, again.  The gentlemen looked at me and said, “Hey. Are you the girl who told us the dog story a few weeks ago?!” 

I replied, “yes.” 

He said, “You’ll never guess what happened to us on our walk!?

This morning we took our dogs on the trail and a woman approaching us said, ‘Do you realize you’re being followed by three coyotes?!’ I turned around and sure enough a small pack of coyotes were stalking us. 

So I raised my hands and shouted at the top of my lungs. The coyotes scampered as fast as they could until a neighbor’s dog jumped out of his backyard and into the center of the pack. 

I immediately knew I had to do a something to save this dog!  So without hesitation, I unleashed my golden retriever and told her to ‘go get em!’

With no fear, my dog took off after the coyotes and the neighbor’s dog was able to get away and run to safety. 

My golden retriever barreled back to me with the biggest smile on her face. It’s as if she knew she’d saved a furry friend.

I looked at my wife and said, ‘no dog dies under my watch.’

We both smiled, laughed and thought of you. 

Thank you for sharing your story because it inspired us to do what we needed to do in our predicament.

Moral of the story …

When you need to “jump” into action for yourself or a friend, do so! And do it UN-afraid! Move ahead with conviction as if you KNOW you’re doing the “right” thing and trust the power of the Holy Spirit is running through your veins.

All in all….

Life is interesting, isn’t it? Kinda like we are walking each other home one step at a time. I also find it ironic how Divinely orchestrated this Universe is, and how we are designed to “show up” in each other’s lives to share a particular event that may impact someone’s future. 

Btw ….

Dog is spelled God backwards. So there’s that.

If you desire to create new experiences in life, then it’s imperative to shift the energy in and around the WHOLE body.  The body is comprised of many layers: spiritual, emotional, mental, physical and environmental, therefore when you re-arrange these particles of light, you’re stimulating the flow of chi and promoting new experiences.  The intensity of Light you add to your inner vessel (body) determines the quality of outcomes being reflected in your current environment .  

So are you ready to raise the intensity of your vibe?

One of the first steps is to begin with releasing “heavy” toxic emotions lingering in your energetic field.  Anger, regret, shame, resentments have the tendency to close off the “flow” and connection with your inner wisdom. Experiencing an energy clearing such as: Reiki sessions, soul retrieval, or past life regressions are ways to physically change the chi within the body, and accelerating your path in attaining personal empowerment. 

Another suggestion is to attend a healing workshop or retreat.  When we consciously put ourselves in an environment that supports health and well-being, the body begins to re-align itself and heal from the inside out, returning to a state homeostasis.   

I often find myself participating in healing workshops and retreats when feeling energetically “tired” or realize that I need my electromagnetic field cleared of “clutter” after a long day of work. 

This photo is taken from a evening workshop  I participated in at  https://www.5starsaltcaves.com in Denver.  With the combination of the Yoga Nidra and being surrounded by 13,000 lbs. of Himalayan rock salt, I left feeling rejuvenated and could energetically feel an internal “shift” taking place in my body.  Check it out for yourself! Results vary from person to person based on intention and willingness to truly experience a healing experience derived from mother nature.

“My Daily MOJO”

Before I get out of bed in the morning, I do my best to remember to say, “God, please show me how/where you want me to be of service today”…and then I listen, and pay attention to where I’m being directed.   No matter what, I trust that I’ll be guided throughout the day. I also know, from personal experience, that whatever or whoever “shows up” is a reflection of me. And the Universe never ceases to amaze me.

—————————————————————————–

A few days ago, I walked into a coffee shop to eat, drink and write; and randomly sat next to a gentleman who was preparing for a job interview. We struck up a conversation and I began asking him questions that his future employer may ask, such as: “What can you do for me? What are your skill sets? Why should I hire you?”  I also mentioned that when he walks into his interview he needs to be confident and “KNOW his $h%T!!”  Own it!!  And try not to come from a place of ego and entitlement. To be driven by his soul and being of service to others. And through setting this intention, doors may open unlike anything his mind could have ever imagined.”  He replied, “Yes, ma’am” and gave me a big hug. I, then, ended the conversation with, “Be yourself and whatever happens, happens,” and walked out…

So today, I walked into a different coffee shop –and who was sitting there??? Yep! You guessed it! The same dude I met two days prior!! (I know…do- do- do- do.) I approached him to ask if he had gotten the job. He looked down, “Nope. They didn’t hire me. I have every qualification. I have the experience. They need to hire 75 people. I’m a hard worker. I love people. I just don’t understand what I did wrong. I needed this job so badly.”  And then he began going into his “story” of why he didn’t get the job and started coming up with reasons why they didn’t hire him.

And then these words fell out of my mouth. (I couldn’t help myself.)

I said, “Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.  If you are going to make up a story about why you didn’t get the position, it needs to sound a helluva lot better than the one I’m hearing right now! The truth is is that the “perfect” situation will come along at the right time. God didn’t want you to have that job or you would have gotten it!   And maybe, just maybe, He has something better in store for you. More money. Better work environment, etc.  And besides, this situation may be your lesson in patience—and a negative attitude isn’t going to get you anywhere.” He sat down and replied, “You’re right. God has a bigger, better plan for me.  I’m going to trust in that. “OK good”, I said.  And then I continued to spill coffee all over the table… (yeah, that was awesome)

One minute later (and I’m not exaggerating) his phone rang. It was someone he’d interviewed with over a month ago and they had finally gotten around to calling him to say, “He made the cut. He got the job!” I could barely believe my ears either, and yes, I was listening.

He got off the phone, looked at me and said, “They want me to be there at 11am today. This is unbelievable. I have no words. This is my dream job!” And I said, “Yep. There are no words. So count your blessings and get your butt there on time. “ I was so happy for him that I began crying!!

He asked, “Before I go, can we say a prayer together?” I said, “Absolutely! I’ll take every prayer that I can get!”

It was truly one of those experiences that I’ll never forget. This situation added more validation on how the unexpected can “show up” when you’re open to infinite possibilities and can get out of your own way. Fun stuff!! Namaste
