Class size is limited to 12--get your reservation in early.  You need to purchase your own copy of the book--it is available on the Kryon website or Amazon.  There are NO prerequisites for this class, all are welcome!

Foolishness is a good thing...

This quote comes from my mother-in-law's church bulletin, author unknown:
"May God bless you with enough foolishness to believe that you can make a difference in this world, so that you can do what others claim cannot be done."

Every single one of us DOES make a difference in the world.  We would not bother coming here if that were not the case.  So yes, let's have the foolishness to put ourselves to good use!  Do you have the confidence, courage, and persistence to try new things, or do you live in fear of failure or of what others may think of you? 

There's an element of joy and fun in "foolishness"--it truly is an adventure to push yourself beyond what you think are your limits.  Those personal limits don't actually exist--we can always do at least a bit more than we think we can.

I can think of lots of things that others claimed could not be done: people flying, a man on the moon, cures for various diseases, portable phones, and so on.  What great idea is lying within you? Do us all a favor and let your foolishness shine!
Blessings!

Persistence and Patience

If one hangs out in time and space long enough, they'll inevitably learn it's through the twin gateways of persistence and patience that masters become masters, of all things.  Mike Dooley, Notes from the Universe

Persistence and patience—two things that require practice.  Speaking of practice, truly I believe that is the story of life here on earth.  Practice, practice, practice.  As babes, we practice walking until we “get it.” We practice reading and writing until we “get it.” Relationships are a life-long practice.  I could go on and on.   

One practice I especially love is yoga.  Not only is it good for me physically, but it also helps me tremendously with the aforementioned persistence and patience.  Persistent dedication to yoga has enabled me to develop great love for and patience with my body, and these spread into every area of my life.  The breathing practice that is an essential element of yoga gives me a vibrantly healthy, well-oxygenated body.  The balance practice in yoga brings balance into all aspects of living.  Yoga is definitely a path to mastery—why not give it a try?

Practicing joy,

A goofy quote

I heard this last night on Baseball Tonight, and I missed who said it--all I can say is that it's not original to me. 

"If you can fake sincerity, you've got it made."  This made me laugh out loud.  It makes my brain go, "Huh!?!?!"  I'm thinking it probably takes as much energy to FAKE sincerity as it does to just be sincere.  It's a goofy thought, but fun to roll around in your head.
Have a great weekend!
Cheers and joy (sincerely!),

Generosity and Gratitude

"Generosity and gratitude turn good into great."  Mike Dooley, Notes from the Universe

I was blessed with a wonderful father who was extremely generous, both with me and everyone else, and who spoke frequently about how blessed the Miller family is.  He had a great handle on the spirit of Mike Dooley's quote.

I appreciate my dad's wisdom so much, and seek to apply this principle in my life daily.  Sure, generosity can mean giving money, but it also means smiling at folks, not being in a hurry, making eye contact, holding a door open, saying "please" and "thank you"--you get it, small acts of kindness add up to a generous spirit.  

Gratitude--that's pretty self-explanatory.  Start with the fact that you can read this blog--eyes to see, brain to comprehend, technology to deliver it, and so on.  If you can't whole-heartedly say, "I love my life!", it's time for some self-examination.  

Lovin' life, spreadin' joy!

Motivation

"Those who are motivated by fear, no matter how they justify such motivation to themselves, are working to keep the world in darkness."  Ken Carey
This is a rather blunt statement indicating to me that living fearfully is not only personally detrimental, but also damaging to the human consciousness and the world in general.  Fear has more far-reaching effects than we realize.
What does "motivated by fear" look like?  People-pleasing. Inadequate self-care. Refusing to risk. Suspicious of others. Expecting bad stuff to happen. Trying to prevent bad stuff from happening. Worrying. Hoarding. Working at an unsatisfying job. Denying or stuffing feelings. Active addiction. "There's never enough _____." Just to name a few.
What's the opposite?  The opposite is motivated by Spirit (inspiration!) for love and service.  What does that look like? Loving self-care ("Love your neighbor as yourself."). Seeing the divine in all others. Living a "life is good!" attitude. Appreciating the ever-increasing blessings in life. Smiling. Using "please" and "thank you." Stretching into new experiences, no matter how frightening. Lifelong learning. Offering one's talents joyfully to the world.
It's an interesting exercise to consider one's motivation...
Lovin' life, spreadin' joy!

Decision made!

I'm a practitioner (spiritual living coach), and I also use a practitioner for my own spiritual growth.  In my monthly session this past week, it hit me--this opportunity I've been debating IS the thing I've been looking for lo, these many months!  It's the "spiritual shove" I've been seeking.  I've had these on an increasingly large scale over the past few years, and they have resulted in magnificent life experiences.  So I said "Yes!" to the opportunity, and now trust that Spirit is making the way smooth and straight for me.  I do the footwork, Spirit does the rest, and I don't have to mess in the "how."  Way cool!! 
Are you ignoring Spirit's knock on your door?!?!
Blessings,
Leta
