Moment of Clarity

6/23/2013

0 Comments

 

Oftentimes when we look back at our past, we analyze events with rose colored glasses...we say "Oh, I'm glad xyz happened, or I don't regret xyz because it made me who I am today" 

But there is a wonderful gift available to us that is cultivated by awareness. Have you ever had a moment of clarity? Knowing in the exact moment, That something is or is not right, and also knowing what must be done to correct your behavior?

I've had these moments in a fleeting way on the past, but have learned more and more how important it is to listen to that internal guidance we know as intuition. The reality is that there is a definite and certain way to operate in clarity. For me, it is the process of meditation and monitored consumption. I meditate to clear my mind, and am incredibly conscientious about what I allow into it.

Being diligent helps me to hear important messages internally and externally. It allows messages you need to hear to come directly to you with no delay, blocks or confusion. The power of a clear mind is key in conjuring up your ideal life.

         How do YOU gain clarity ?

Summer Contract

One of the first questions I asked was, "What are you conjuring up?" I came across a lovely answer from my sister, writer, Skyy Banks, in the form of her Summer Contract. Thinking it would be a great idea for the CW community, I immediately set out to create my own contract, and wanted to share with you. 
In light of Conjuring, the hottest season of the year, and Transparency, I present to you My Summer Contract! 


This summer, I commit to :


  1. Spending some SERIOUS time in the pool, not just dipping a toe in here and there, but a new bathing suit and swimming til my muscles are jelly!
  2. Completing Conjure Woman, so that my community has its go to guide for this new movement!
  3. Enjoying Yoga three times a week 
  4. Completing at least three chapters of my academic writing
  5. Creating my MastHerMind Group 
  6. Enjoying some PURE fun...going to the movies, seeing a play, catching some live music, shows and concerts and hearing some spoken word poetry
  7. Restructuring my Business (new programs coming VERY soon)  
  8. Reinstating my Fasting Practice
  9. Going to the Beach, laying out in the sun and absorbing the energy of Mama Ocean!!
  10. Continuing my education in Wealth Consciousness, reading, practicing and manifesting.


A nice little chunk of work for three months, but because I believe in conjuring and allowing, I've already begun to check off some of these tasks.  I can't wait to share the outcomes with you all. 
                               What will you include on YOUR summer contract?

So You Had A Bad Day...

6/10/2013

     I don't do bad days...For me, every day, is a good day. If I accomplish anything on my to do list, that's good! If things get crazy...well that's just not me, because that's not what I attract or intend, so I know something is out of whack. So this mid-Monday morning, when I realized that things were WAY out of whack, aside from wanting to hide out in Starbucks sipping a Caramel Macchiatto until things improved (or taking a nap and starting all over), I wanted to get to the bottom of the way I felt. 
      I pulled my self into a coaching session. What would I say to a person who told me "everything was terrible?" Because that's how I felt. I mean, nothing happened, I just genuinely felt like everything was terrible...and not the t.v. show/performance art/band either. I mean if things were terrible like that, I would have laughed! But seriously, this morning, I felt like C.R.A.P., Crazy, Ridiculous and Peeved!! 
     So...I let myself have it. I did. I took it, I said, ok, this sucks!! I was in the car alone, so I let go a whole vocabulary book full of crazy, inappropriate, profane, anger filled, blame centered bad day feelings, words and sentiments. In the end, I felt great! I laughed at myself, I laughed at the bad day, I laughed at the whole scenario, because by the time I made it home, parked and finished, my son appeared at my car window asking me something, which was quickly followed by "we're you free-styling mommy?" I looked like a deer caught in headlights and said..."ummm, no" Embarrassed is not sufficient to describe how I felt. I was left with nothing to do BUT laugh at myself.
     What I did come to learn during my self coaching session however, was quite significant. I've been doing a great deal of intense personal development work over the last several months, and I remember describing to a friend that it's like we have to flush out all of the negative experiences and thoughts of the past and flood our minds with this new level of programming. So what I really experienced was not necessarily a "bad day,"  but more of a purging of all that CRAP and crappy thinking from my past. I mean I was flushing out negative programming, thinking and processes, and well...the dirt had to go somewhere. Understanding that was a huge shift in the day for me. I realized that the day wasn't "bad" because it was still in progress, which meant I could still make an impact. It was actually a monumental day, because it was the day I released a lot of old mental junk, to allow my new mental gems to take root. 
All in all, this ended up being a great day! (after I took that nap)


                                  How do you conjure up solutions to your "bad" days?

Getting Real !!!

Hello Lovely Ladies!! Recently I was challenged to get REAL about who I was, what I was doing, and the truths behind WHY I do what I do...How can I challenge my sisters to let go of their drama, baggage and fear, if I haven't let go of mine?! 
Normally, I'd argue that I was being absolutely REAL...I'd say "but, but, but, there's nothing FAKE about me!! There's nothing FAKE about my message! There's nothing fake about the Conjure Woman Movement!! The truth is however, that authenticity does not simply involve honesty, it also involves a little word I learned from a development friend of mine called "transparency" 


You see, authenticity is defined by Merriam Webster as,
                         
                                     "true to one's own personality, spirit, or character"


which means that I am not only going to be truthful with you about this work of conjuring up new lives, I'm also going to share MY progress with you as I continue on this journey. That portion is called transparency. On this journey, I'm encouraging you to engage not only in authenticity, but in transparency as well. Share what you're learning and doing with friends, bring someone along for the journey, and see what you can create. 


As for me, you can get ready for regular updates on what I'm reading, discussions of how to enact the changes you're conjuring up, and of course, celebrations of our successes. So now, as an act of transparency, I ask YOU to join me on this journey!
