January 2008, Issue 61 ~ Setting Intentions and Manifesting in 2008
"You are never given a dream without also being given the power to make it true."
~ Richard Bach, author
During an annual family gathering in NYC last month, we met up with Stephanie who is single and in her 40s. She is one of those family friends we see just once a year. To our surprise, she had a baby in her arms. I recalled hearing she was going to try and adopt a baby last winter but now learned that she discovered she was pregnant just weeks before her flight overseas to begin the adoption process. With glee, she introduced us to her new baby, the baby’s father (her fiancé), and his daughter from a previous marriage. They all were working on becoming a blended family. We laughed as she exclaimed, "Last year I was here all alone. Now look at me!!" What a difference a year can make I thought.
As we ease into a new year, it is again time to set intentions and reflect on what we'd like to manifest in our lives. Whether it's addressing unresolved grief, embracing your life purpose, a healthy happy relationship, or personal healing, it is within your power to manifest positive change this year.
See which one of the below articles, courses or web tools might support you in your manifestation efforts. Wishing you joy, health, and abundance!
Breathe,

Setting Intentions: Placing Your Request (with interactive Web Tool)
By Laurie E. Smith
When setting intention, anything we can do to increase the intensity of what we are seeking on an energetic level helps us to attract it more quickly. It can also be helpful to be as clear as possible with our request — this increases the chance that we will actually receive it. The following questions can help you to do this, as well as to flush out any last little details you may want to consider. Have fun! Try out this
Web Tool from Laurie's NEW Miracles course.

Living with Purpose: Manifesting your Heart's Desires in 2008
By Melanie Votaw
As you think about the work that you want to do in the world (i.e., your life purpose), working with images is a great way to turn your inner reality into your outer reality. Images are often more powerful than words. So, think about the essence of your life purpose — the work that would bring you the most fulfillment, while also making a contribution in the world. Perhaps the essence is love or freedom or unabashed creativity. Once you have determined the essence of your life purpose, create a symbol that will signify...

Manifesting with Feng Shui and the Law of Attraction
By Deborah Redfern
This Course describes a dance. It is a very old dance which has a particular pattern and steps to learn. It is a dance about energy. At one time every one of us knew this dance, but now many of us have forgotten how to do it. It is simple to learn but takes practice to master because it involves monitoring your thought processes. There are nine steps in this dance, consisting of two parts: feng shui, and the law of attraction. There are similarities between the two parts and you will learn to interweave them together to create a very powerful tool of manifestation.

Q & A by Bereavement Counselor Marty Tousley
Question:
I have a dilemma that I am hoping you can remedy. Three years ago, my father passed away and two months later my mother was diagnosed with cancer. To make a long story short, my sister and I stayed upbeat and positive for our mother's sake, but she kept having one thing after another until finally she was deemed terminal. We took care of her with the help of Hospice 3 days a week, but were her sole caregivers until she passed away last April. In August, my nine-year-old Chocolate Lab JB, whom we have had since the day he was born, was diagnosed with terminal cancer and I took care of him until we had to end his suffering in September. We cried when our father passed away, but quickly stopped grieving when Mom was diagnosed...

Things That Make You Go Ommm. . .

I think a bunch of you are going to love this one! It's easy, affordable, and AMAZING. It's called the Dream Wizard. In about 3 minutes, I purchased, downloaded and typed in a goal, added a photo to represent that goal and recorded my OWN voice claiming my dream. Now it pops up on my computer screen every 2 hours to remind me of what I am manifesting. No kidding! It makes me so happy every time it pops up! Check it out
here.

Here's What You're Saying About Our Courses...
About Our Goddess course:
"This is an incredibly rich and enriching class. The research that went into alone is mind-boggling! I feel anyone could benefit from the highly resourceful course as it reveals another side of ourselves to us, a side we always knew existed, but somehow may have been kept from knowing. It is our natural side, the one we have stigmatized, repressed, ignored but one it would behoove us all to cultivate and get to know. I am so grateful that Reverend Brockway and Self Healing Expressions offer this course. This class is a wonderful gift to give to yourself and to share with a friend. You won't regret it! IN fact you deserve it. It is great for periods of transition, of self-doubt, for learning to listen and 'hear' your inner inklings, for reinforcing inner strength, better understanding oneself, honoring/understanding one uniqueness and inner beauty, and helping others do the same! Just lovely and empowering! A celebration of being!"

The Power of Sound
By Rev. Elizabeth Reed with Neil Douglas-Klotz
It is a tenet of Hebrew mysticism, still alive in Judaism today, that words have power. And, not only do words have power, individual letters have power. Sounds have power. And sound is vibration. The quality of vibration through sounds affects existence. This approach to spiritual teaching would have been a part of Yeshua's (Jesus') approach. The first word of the Aramaic Lord's Prayer, "Abwoon," is the word that...Read on.

Lynn's Laughter Blip for January
By Lynn Shaw, Laughter Therapist
|
Humor cannot always be shared. Humor is learned and isn't always appreciated by more than the interpreter. There has to be an intellectual connection as well. Laughter, on the other hand, is innate and can be shared. Did you laugh at the last joke you heard? Do you enjoy certain television shows that other family members despise? For the purpose of applying laughter to your daily life and the healing of your mind, body and spirit, think of humor as the brain waves...

To will is to select a goal, determine a course of action that will bring one to that goal, and then hold to that action till the goal is reached. The key is action.

This Month's Holistic Prayer |
May all beings everywhere be happy and free.
May my thoughts, words, and deeds contribute in some way to that happiness and freedom for all beings. ~ Buddhist tradition
Today I purpose to live
My life will shine
As the morning sings
I walk in liberty
Bound in true dreams
Manifested promises
Chase my forward motion
A covered path before me
The fruits of my hoping
The fruits of my living
Today I purpose to love
My love will speak
With the sound of grace
Merciful within mercy
The works of my faith
Smiles of overflowing
Inspire my giving
Abundance of joy as rain
The fruits of my living
~ Michael John Faciane
