9-1-2010 – Climbing Mount Emotion – Part 1 of 3

Even the most powerful Intentional Creators can find themselves in pinched-off emotional states from time to time, and that’s when it’s important to recognize where you are and what you’re feeling — and then know how to move yourself up to the top of Mount Emotion!

First off let me say one thing: WHEREVER you are, and WHATEVER you’re feeling — it is absolutely okay. Where you are is where you are. So many people beat up on themselves for feeling less than perfect and I’m here to tell you — get over it!! SO WHAT. Everyone has a rendezvous with a bad day, or a bad feeling place, from time to time. It’s called life. However, the thing you want to ask yourself is HOW LONG DO I CHOOSE TO STAY IN THIS LOUSY FEELING PLACE?

Personally, I’m too selfish about the relationship between me and ME (the broader, Source part of ME) to remain in a not-great emotional state for very long, so I work on this pretty consistently. And so the gap between emotional states, for me, is relatively small. Moving from hopefulness to joy is a much easier challenge then moving from a place of sadness to joy. Can you see the difference?

When you’re experiencing a really radical gap between emotions it can seem next to impossible to shift into that better feeling place. I get asked this question a lot from clients in my alignment coaching: “How can I feel better when I’m feeling absolutely miserable?”

Look, sometimes it happens. Through a chain of events that you created without even realizing it, you worked yourself into a really low-resonating energy. You got yourself out of alignment and you’ve lost vibrational access to that higher resonating emotion.

The first step to feeling better is to be aware of the way you feel. Acknowledge where you are on what I call — Mount Emotion. It’s this great big mountain of emotion! LOL! And right now, you are about to get your first lesson on how to navigate your way UP the mountain!

Picture Mount Emotion with me, will you? At the bottom, amongst all the rocks and mud and debris, you’ve got access to emotions like: hate, fear, hopelessness, despair, anxiety, depression, loneliness and such. Now, at the top of the mountain where the air is clean and clear and the birds are flying free in the bright blue skies overhead you have emotions and feelings like exhilaration, excitement, clarity, passion, eagerness and the like.

So, if you’re standing at the bottom of the mountain, how in the world do you get to the top? You climb your way up! Now notice I didn’t say jump, or run, or leap, or fly up the mountain, I said climb. One vibrational step at a time.

But how? With what? And how long will it take? Okay, that’s where I can help. You’ve already gotten the first step out of the way by acknowledging that Mount Emotion actually exists! (Many people refuse to even acknowledge that it does).

The next thing you need to do is get your Emotional Climbing Gear together. Emotional Climbing Gear? What?? Yep, that’s what I said. And you can’t buy this gear at a local Big 5 or Eddie Bauer, my friends — because this gear is really special. And it’s free. How cool is that?

And once I describe it to you, you’ll realize you had it all along… sort of like Dorothy realized she had the power to return home the whole time she was in Oz.

And right now I’m going to tell you about just one of the pieces of gear you can use to climb the mountain.

So let’s say you’re at the bottom of Mount Emotion, and you’re feeling really, realllllly sad. So sad, in fact, you can’t even muster the strength to look up at the top of the mountain. In fact, if you did, all you’d see is fog. Fog, fog and more fog. The first piece of gear you can use to help take your first step up the mountain is: A SONG.

A song? Yes! Music is one of the most powerful tools you can use to move you from the feeling place of sadness toward the feeling place of joy. Think about it. Music can quickly change your mood just by listening to it. Imagine listening to a TV theme song from childhood, a song that instantly makes you happy. Or a song from your high school days, one that takes you to a place of sheer joy. When you’re feeling sad, use the power of SONG to help move you into a better feeling place. Experience yourself moving from sadness to the next step up the mountain — maybe to a state of anger. Anger is a better state than sadness!

So the next time you’re feeling like you’re standing at the bottom of Mount Emotion, remember that a SONG is just one of the vibrational tools you can utilize to start climbing up the mountain.

Next week, in PART II, I’ll share more tools that you can use to work your way up.

8-4-2010 – Stewart’s Bliss Blog – Abundance Is Everywhere – Are You Tuned In?

Lack cannot be manifest. It’s impossible for nothing to be something. So therefore, there’s only abundance — and if you’re not seeing or experiencing abundance
it’s only because of your belief system — and it must be changed!

Darkness is the absence of light. When you walk into a room and there is darkness you don’t worry that the darkness will seep out into the hallway and take away the light; rather, you turn on the light and illuminate the room, causing the darkness to disappear.

The concept of abundance works the same way.

I was counseling someone recently who was having a tremendous financial issue and he said to me, “Stewart, it seems no matter what I do I can’t make money. And if I do, it’s never enough.”

I told him that the only reason abundance wasn’t in his life is because he believes it not to be there. “You’re suffering from a lackful consciousness,” I said, “But the good news is that you can change those beliefs — in fact, you must change those beliefs in order to change your financial situation.”

“How?” he asked.

“First off, do you believe you are an extension of Source energy?”

“Yes.”

“Okay, if you believe that, if you really believe that, then you must also understand that God/Source IS abundance. God is the Supplier of All; think about the word SOURCE. SOURCE is where all things come from. And so, you are SOURCE, and so, you ARE naturally ABUNDANT, for you and Source are one. And so, there is no need to look OUTSIDE of yourself for abundance, because abundance is INSIDE. The Kingdom of Heaven Is Within!”

He was quietly staring at the floor as he processed what I was saying.

“When you think of abundance through spiritual eyes, you begin to see it everywhere,” I continued. “There really isn’t any shortage. It’s only people’s perception that there’s shortage that creates the illusion of shortage. It’s time to shift your thinking to abundant consciousness so you have vibrational access to the glorious kingdom of God right here on Earth.”

Indeed, it’s time to tune ourselves to the Source Frequency, where there lavish abundance exists. Just take a look around. One of my favorite things to do is simply step out into nature and witness the abundance of creatures, trees, plants, rocks, lakes — I could go on and on — that is everywhere. Eternally there. An endless supply. And that helps tune me into the true reality of abundance, which in turns helps me keep a prosperous mindset.

This concept is especially helpful if you’re experiencing a lack of money; when you can turn your cheek away from the lack of dollars, and refocus on the abundance of LIFE, you will overpower the lackful feeling and begin to replace with the feeling of eternal supply.

I do this throughout my day, even when I pass a car lot and see all the cars on the lot, and think, “it’s an endless supply, always there.” Or when I go into the grocery store and see that it’s always stocked, and always replenished. What it does is confirm to me that there is only abundance, everywhere.

It’s always about what you’re tuned into, and if you’re seeing the LACK of something, it always means you’re seeing the absence of that which is, and all you have to do is work on changing your beliefs and begin getting in sync with the vibrational reality of abundance. And then you will begin to have vibrational access to an abundant consciousness!

Here’s an affirmation to help you:

I am an extension of Source energy.
Source energy IS my source.
It is the Source of all life.
Source is ABUNDANT.
Therefore, I AM abundant.
There can be NO LACK for LACK cannot be manifest.
Nothing cannot become something.
Darkness is the absence of light.
I choose now to tune myself to the frequency of ABUNDANCE
And I now see that Abundance is everywhere
It has become visible to me
And was always there
And Is Always There
Forever
I Feel Abundant!

7-14-2010 – Stewart’s Blog – Blessing Your Way To Bliss

If you’re living something less-than-wanted right now, the worst thing you can do is complain about it.
The best thing you can do is use the power of your mind to find the positive aspect of the situation — and then from that new platform of appreciation turn yourself toward the solution of the problem.
Sound complicated?  It’s not really. Let me explain.

Let’s say you have to stay home on a Saturday night because you’re down to your last clean sock and laundry is unavoidable. So instead of meeting up with your friends, you’re going to have a night of fluff and fold and you’re not happy about it.  Well, instead of being angry, turn your focus to finding something — anything — to appreciate about doing the laundry.  Things like:  you have a washer and dryer that works. You’re able to pay the electrical bill that allows the washer and dryer to work. The smell of the fresh, clean, warm clothes when they come out of the dryer. And so on.

Find a way to get into alignment with that Source aspect of you, because Source is definitely not complaining about doing the laundry!  Source is looking at the laundry like a playful little kid. And when you get that, when you train yourself to find the gems within every moment — good or bad — life seriously becomes fun.

You see, here’s the thing. Life is never going to deliver you one perfect situation after another. It’s just not possible. Yes, you can train yourself to align predominantly with really good feeling situations, but contrast is inevitable and you will eventually rendezvous with something unwanted. It’s the springboard of creation!  The question is how long are you going to wallow in what’s unwanted?  Me? I don’t choose to stay there very long — because it just doesn’t feel good!

It turns out that the real test of an Intentional Creator is being able to find a way to mine for the good stuff no matter what’s going on around you.

I call this Blessing Your Way To Bliss.  Just keep finding the blessings in every situation — they’re there, they really are.  Sometimes you’ve got to dig deep to find them, sometimes they’re really easy to see.  But by doing this, you’re consistently FEELING GOOD, and that’s the key no matter what’s happening around you.  The following is an affirmation I wrote that helps me stay tuned in to this concept.

Affirmation:

I’m appreciating being able to find my balance in a less than wanted state.
I’m appreciating remembering that I’m a powerful creator.
I’m appreciating that in any moment — ANY MOMENT — I can find the positive.
I appreciate KNOWING the fact that life is not always going to deliver the perfect scenario — BUT THAT I HAVE THE ABILITY TO SEE THE PERFECTION IN IT ANYWAY.
This is powerful.
Every situation contains within it the positive and the negative.
I appreciate knowing that I have trained myself into seeing more of the positive, and therefor my life reflects that back to me.
Yes, sometimes a rascal slips into my reality.
Yes, sometimes an unwanted situation unfolds for me.
But the truth is, I can find the positive in any of those situations — why?  Because I’m in control of what I think and feel.
I no longer have to be victim to the situations unfolding around me.
I no longer have to stay in a state of complaining.
I no longer have to have people adjust who they are just to please me.
I no longer have to be what other people think I should be.
I no longer have to please anyone but me!

7-2-2010 – Stewart’s Blog – The Only Relationship That Counts

My cousin Kara is getting married in September and she’s already working on her vows.
“I have no idea what to write,” she said to me over a cup of coffee last week.
So I suggested she write something from the Source perspective.
“What do you mean?” she asked, blinking her eyes.
“You go shopping,” I told her, “I’ll stay here and write down what I mean.”
She left for about an hour, and when she came back I handed her a piece of paper with words from Source.
“Here’s what I’m talking about,” I told her. “These are Source Vows!”
“Source Vows?” she said, laughing.
And then she read them out loud:

“Dear Lover,

I’m so happy to be here with you right now.
I want to say a few things to you…
As we step forward together, I want you to know that I do not hold you responsible for my happiness.
Because I get to choose that for myself.
Lucky you, right?
Yeah, you got the New Age gal! Told ya it was going to be a wild ride!
You see, I believe my well-being is my own responsibility!
In fact, I release you of any responsibility of taking care of me.
Don’t faint. You heard me right.
I take care of myself.
And it’s my job to keep myself “tuned in” during the time we’re together.
During our relationship, I’ll look for things to keep me connected, keep a smile on my face, keep the joy in my heart.
Because that’s who I truly am!
I won’t use you as my excuse to disconnect.
Ever.
I also have something else to say.
Now don’t get upset.
But…
I want to let you know that I don’t need you.
I really don’t.
Because ‘need’ feels lackful, and what I’m feeling is exhilaration.
And, the truth is, I choose to be with you.
And that feels empowering.
I’m going to work at seeing the best in you,
And in the midst of disagreements we are bound to have, I’m going to remember that You are an extension of Source.
And so am I.
What I’ m trying to say is that I’m not your partner, I’m a Whole.
And you’re a Whole.
And we’re two Wholes coming together.
To enjoy, to love, to share, to expand.
You see, the truth is, I’ve found out that the only relationship that counts… is the one I have with myself.
I know that might sound selfish… and I guess to an extent it is… but if I don’t take care of me first, I won’t be able to give you the best of me.
And you deserve the best of me as I deserve the best of you.
And when I’m in alignment with Who I Really Am, I’m radiating.
I’m joyful.
I’m basking.
I’m appreciating.
I’m unconditionally loving.
And I’m lovable back.
I’m totally connected to ME, and that makes for a better ME and YOU.
That’s my vow to you, my darling lover…
Forever and ever.”

She sat there really quiet for a few moments, contemplating these powerful words, and I could tell she really felt them.
“Thank you, Stewart,” she said, emotion in her voice.
“Thank You,” I replied.

I’ll let you know how the wedding goes.
