In today's economy we rarely get good news and for the most part money is no fun. We don't have enough fun. We hear how much money money managers on Wall Street embezzle, how many $ trillion dollars the S&P 500 dropped in the last month, that the nation is bankrupt, etc...
How often do we hear about how many people had fun making money? About how good and healthy it is to be wealthy?
Money and abundance are portrayed as evil. Fact is nobody broke ever gave me a job or helped me financially? The only people who ever helped me financially were people with money.
We have this whole money thing backwards socially and spiritually.
Being rich is awesome. We can help more people and we can live a better life. Poverty sucks.
If you want to have a good time you should attend Harve Eker's Millionaire Mind 3 day intensive seminar. There are a number of them sceduled throughout the Us befire the end of 2011, and they won't cost you anything.
If you live in the Sarasota area and are interested in Qigong. Now is the time.
Get in touch now for a class forming this week.There is a contact page and an AWeber form.
This will be a class focused on energy, balance and vitality. The teacher has been practicing since 1988 and will tune the class to individual requirements and skill levels. This will be a fun and beneficial class.
I was doing some web work this weekend and noticed these two different pictures of myself and what I noticed kind of surprised me. So I thought I would share them with you to make a point about Core Health and the self development work that I have been focused on for 5 years.
Looking back, it’s interesting to note (July 2011) that when this picture was taken in Seattle in 2006, I have changed so much since that time.
Do you know what a down flame is? I was kind of shocked as I realized what I was looking at.
May 15 am - Stillness Journal entry... my personal Spiritual Journey
This email was definitely a message corresponding to my meditation and stillness this morning. Part of my daily practice of Unceasing Meditation.
Subject Line: Guiding You on Your Path
"Actually, there does not seem to be any particular guidance. In fact, if someone is guiding you, that is suspicious, because you are relying on something external. Being fully what you are in yourself becomes guidance, but not in the sense of vanguard, because you do not have a guide to follow. You do not have to follow someone's tail, but you sail along. In other words, the guide does not walk ahead of you, but walks with you."
Wow talk about absolutely perfect target marketing from the Universe.
Walking -Meditation
Walked a brisk 2.2 miles in the hot sun in shorts and no shirt (about 35 minutes in total with sun screen - working on metabolism and tan at the same time ~ 10:00 am before the sun is too hot)
As I walked I repeated my Breath Prayer silently.
I also did the cell door opening exercise and filled all 55 Trillion cells, will, emotions, mind , heart and energy body with light, the Presence of God, Joy Wisdom, Power and Love with each in breath and then with the BREATH WIND and blew all emotional debris and junk and cobwebs and tension and confusion out the back of the cell .
Then did the overflow exercise into the cells and overflowed into the will and overflowed into the emotions and the heart and then mind and the energy body with Light, Love, Power, Wisdom and the Presence of God.
Consciously choosing: Living out of and through the overflow...
As I visualized this and felt the warmth and the light within my being, I sensed a powerful connection to the Bliss Breeze blowing through and around me and a connection with the bird song and even the sounds of internal combustion engines.
The sounds of the passing 'racing' motorcycle engines were a thing of beauty as I felt the Presence of God through their sound - almost smiling at the joy and the playfulness and the pleasure of seeing a creation that entertained - so well - the rider and that expression of joy and appreciation of God came through. And I saw it and felt it in the smiles of passers by - some walking dogs with dogs gazing at me.
I felt the connection of God within the loving interaction between a teenage boy riding point on a bicycle for his gorgeous, healthy blond mother who was jogging gracefully in a syncopated and synchronized manner. She ran with a grace that was gazelle-like, the way they bound and express the energy of Life and God through motion and the physical expression of energy.
There was joy in this expression - God's, mine, the mother, the son and Universe around them all playing with the dance and enjoying experiencing it. I faded in and out of my Breath Prayer and became more and more aware of the me - the being-ness that is part of the big picture and a quiet gentle voicing saying within:
"I am part of God and God is part of me and I am part of everything and the universe and it is part of me."
It all flowed and brought joy and a sense of absolute belonging and serenity and stillness.
I am not alone. I know now that I only ever imagined that to be the case. I never have been alone. It was all a projection on my internal 'holo-screen' - a self made truth that has only ever been true within my head.
Bliss is ever present. Joy is the natural default. Love is currency of the Universe.
Great sweat, great workout, great walk, great activation. Great internal connection. Good to be home again.
Today's profound awareness came in writing an email :
The following is the body of that email:
Did you see my status on Facebook yesterday? Seems like it relates to the Abraham quote today
"The Universe does not know whether the vibration that you're offering is because of something you're observing or something you're remembering or something that you are imagining. It just receives the vibration and answers it with things that match it. --- Abraham"
I just realized something else from that quote:
I never conceived of the Universe and the God Mind as a gigantic sub-conscious mind before this moment. It just records and responds and does not decipher any messages or interpretations.
The Universe simply responds to the energetic vibrational pattern. That is all. No interpretation, no evaluating, no reaction - just vibration.
This is a big learn for me.
This is part of my email response:
Dr. Ed is right about results. Kind of like 'what good is anything if it doesn't work?'.
I'm finding it easier to make simple choices - almost like a computer:
0 or 1
yes or no
weak or strong...
The difficult part for me is remembering to listen and choose - instead of doing without choosing. The unceasing meditation has really helped me be clear about the internal noise and my 'inner voice' and I am much less reactive.
I just realized something else when I re-read this:
When I am 'doing', I have to choose. When I am being, there is really no choice because there already is alignment. In that case, the only choice is to accept what is coming "in your direction" or not. The key to understanding this was the phrase I used: 'instead of doing without choosing'.
Doing = choosing to be in alignment or not. Being = Alignment Wow... Cool aha.
Here is my related Facebook status:
We only ever have two choices. Ask yourself: Does this make me WEAK or does this make me STRONG? The question is always very simple yet we try to complicate things. We can only choose weak or strong. Choose whatever makes you strong.
Core Health is an amazing mechanism for freeing and clearing all the layers of junk we carry around with us - the left over emotional debris and general distortions about life accumulated since childhood.
2009 has been a year of transition for me.
A great deal of this transition has been an amazing, joyful and exciting experience. It has been a challenging and demanding year of magical love, healing and clarity with occasional clouds over the horizon.
I found something out.
When we seek to align our inner authentic selves with our outer daily expression of who we are in the world - and really go after it - we change. Whether we like the results of the change or not, we end up different.
In my experience, sometimes change is really an uncomfortable thing at first and until just this moment I have not clearly known why. I just got it...
We avoid change - or feel reticent about it - because on some intuitive level we know that we are going to be different. Different doesn't always feel good or comfortable.
On the other hand, I almost always feel better when the changes are rooted in doing the inner work, growing and expanding.
Because I chose to change my life this year it happened. I have ultimately pulled out of a rut and although the transition was often intense and not what I had anticipated, I AM grateful...
Two big factors in 'putting Humpty Dumpty together again' were Core Health and Heart Forgiveness. I have described these before in other posts as:
a human consciousness defrag program and/or
extreme makeover energy edition.
Using comprehensive kinesiology, Core Health and Heart Forgiveness focus on freeing and clearing all the junk and debris out of our energy and uncovering the true core of health within us.
Thank you and bless you Dr Ed Carlson for being persistent enough for thirty years to figure out Core Health and make it a reality for mankind.
I AM Grateful for the growth and the opportunities to learn more about who I am.
I AM Grateful for my amazing health.
I AM Grateful for my children and my friends and family.
I AM Michael Barrett and I AM a Core Health Facilitator
As I get further into the significance of the heart chakra (the vibrational and harmonic energy patterns emanating from the heart area), my desire to fully understand this intensifies.
So I keep looking, reading, studying, and practicing how to harmonize the truth I AM in my Core with the person I AM on the outside in the world every day.
The heart is a big deal.
The heart is not only a metaphor for human expression, or a source of emotion, or an organ to pump blood through the human body - and get oxygen to the brain.
It is much more than this.
Science, more specifically quantum physics and biology, is beginning to understand that the heart actually is the central mixing bowl - if you will - for energy (emotions) from the three lower emotional centers in the body where it is integrated with energy (thoughts) from the three upper energy centers. The result from this mixing bowl is 'feelings'.
I wrote about this in my heart forgiveness blog which includes a video where Gregg Braden talks about this subject and says that the 'feelings' act like little beacons - attractor fields - that attract to it more of whatever vibrational patterns are being emitted.
This is a deep subject.
I've been a qigong student and practitioner for over 20 years so energy is a big part of my life. Lately, the focus on heart energy has become a primary interest for me in an effort to learn how to apply self forgiveness in my life.
This is first of series providing practical methods of harmonizing, strengthening and balancing heart energy.
In June of 2009, I met Dr Ed Carlson for the first time.
He was the second dentist I have met who is also a martial artist. The first was Dr Jeff Alexander (warriorspirit.org) who paid his way through dental school as a professional boxer.
Dr Ed is a terrific teacher and mentor who has dedicated much of his life to helping mankind. I was introduced to Dr Ed by a Facebook friend, Pamela Gregory, who has a popular Facebook group called Forgiveness Healing. We have subsequently become close personal friends, have completed our Heart Forgiveness Facilitator certification and are about to complete our Core Health Facilitator certification.
Anyway that's how I met Dr Ed Carlson...
For six intensive months Dr Ed has been my teacher, mentor and friend as I have studied with him. Dr Ed is compassionate, kind and a very bright man. I'm glad to say that he is my friend, he has helped me change my life.
Recently Dr Ed Carlson and Gregg Braden had a chance to meet and share ideas in Tampa. There is a picture of them in this blog along with a video of Gregg Braden talking about consciousness.
Heart Forgiveness and Core Health changed my life in 2009.
Heart Forgiveness answers so many things for me - things like:
How do I actually forgive myself and live without anger?
How do I truly love myself?
How do I uncover my inner power and step back into my personal power that I lost somehow from divorce, disappointment and setbacks?
How do I - once and for all - release all the negative programming, attitudes and emotions that I've been carrying around most of my life?
How do I manifest my true purpose and greatness in this life?
A major plus this year was learning how to open my heart in a new way. In a bio I created, I talk about coming to terms with forgiving myself and how this came up in my life. You can read that discussion here:
There were a number of things that happened this year. Like finding and understanding the beauty of the ocean for the first time and relocating 3000 miles to get certified as a Core Health Facilitator and a Heart Forgiveness Facilitator.
This year's highlights include new things I studied:
Core Health Facilitator Blog, Dr Bruce Lipton and "The New Biology" (video)
About six months ago, I met a fabulous lady - Pamela Gregory - on Facebook who subsequently helped me a great deal. She has the popular "Forgiveness Healing Facebook" group. As an EFT Practitioner, she helped me work through a very difficult period. We have become close personal friends.
Because of Pamela's prominent online presence, a young health and fitness professional named Neil Habgood contacted her. Neil was working and studying with the founder of Core Health, named Dr Ed Carlson at the time and as a result of these contacts, we are all (Pamela, Neil and myself) getting certified together as Core Health Facilitators. We complete this certification process in Dec 2009.
This is truly a fabulous system with immense potential to help people in so many different areas. It is exciting, it is cutting edge, it is measurable and it works.
There is a great video of a lecture by Dr Bruce Lipton, author of The Biology of Belief, in the post, very worthwhile. Please comment and ask questions.
Getting late after 13 hours of intensive training today and another day tomorrow.
Aaron Huey and Seymour Segnit are friends of mine...
They are both transformational trainers and very good at what they do.
Below is a short video - less than two minutes. The guy doing the intro is Seymour and Aaron is the guy sitting on the wooden chair with the water in the background.
If you listen to Aaron in this video, you will hear something that is unmistakable:
He is authentic to the bone.
He is not putting on a show for the camera, I know Aaron. He is a Warrior - not just in the metaphoric sense, he is a real warrior. He is compassionate and he cares.
This is how Aaron is in real life and why what he does makes a difference.
Check out the video...
Both of these guys are the real deal.
I worked with Aaron on staff in 2006 at the Enlightened Warrior Training Camps in Beaumont California and I liked the work he did. He was a facilitator for one of the most challenging break-through processes. He was tough, but kind. He was effective but gentle. He was focused, yet compassionate. I learned to trust Aaron and I liked him immediately.
Aaron is tight with one of my best friends - Shane - who has worked with Aaron even more frequently than I have. Through their relationship, I have gotten to know Aaron better - vicariously - through the eyes and words of my close friend. One of the things I really admire about Aaron is the work he has done to help adolescent kids over the last few years in many of his camps.
Aaron is a man of his word. You can believe what he says. And if he says the stuff he is working on for the Big Weekend with Seymour is going deep within him and creating a lot of change, it is.
Seymour Segnit is a multi-talented trainer.
I met him originally in 2005 when we were on staff for Peak Potentials traveling around the country on the seminar logistics team. He was a trainer before I met him and I watched him continue to develop his skill until he became one of the best people on the team.
Seymour is a good man, a good husband and and good father. He is the kind of man who walks his talk and lives the values that inspire people to find the best in themselves. In the beginning, he and I banged heads a few times while we were all doing a lot personal growth and some very deep work.
The cool thing about that is that it is exactly how you really get to know who someone is. Conflict often creates depth in a relationship. Over eighteen intense months of sixteen to eighteen hour days traveling city to city - working together on high intensity self development seminars - we became pretty good friends.
More importantly, we grew to respect each other as we did the kind of soul wrenching work that people do when they are committed to personal growth. It is the kind of work where you don't hide - where you can't hide - who you are deep down inside if you really want results. It is like getting naked with yourself and not turning away ever again.
These two guys have done it all. They really have. I would say they have been relentless in their pursuit of excellence. They had the best mentors and teachers on the planet today. They know what you want, and better than that, they know what you need and how to get you there. They KNOW you have the stuff - the courage to do things you haven't even thought of yet, but wish you had.
Fortunately, Seymour and Aaron have thought of it. They know what you hope they know and that is exactly what THE BIG WEEKEND is ALL about.
Take it from me that if you are ready to make changes and create a better life for yourself, working with these guys is the best place to start. You have my word on it.
THE BIG WEEKEND is calling your name. You don't have to answer the call but you may wish you had.
